Chapter 144 Plant Protective Wall
After finishing her business, Yu Shan wanted to borrow a car to take a detour to pick up her grandparents.
However, the gold spirit stones stored in Tang Tianhua's space are related to the rapid advancement of countless low-level gold-type ability users.
Currently, all the superhumans on the entire planet are still at a low level, as are the zombies and mutated plants.
Whoever can quickly cultivate a group of mid-level ability users in a short period of time will gain the upper hand, and resources will be readily available.
And for this "who," the first choice for Yu Shan would definitely be the state apparatus.
The previous wind-elemental ability user failed, so the other side will likely send an even stronger force to try and take it.
Therefore, the sooner Tang Tianhua returns to Anju Community, the safer he will be.
Therefore, she chose to borrow a car instead of having the entire convoy accompany her on a detour.
However, in Jiang Tao's eyes, while the unknown metal vein was precious, she was even more precious.
This area is already remote, and it's hard to say when we'll get another mission here.
Only the four guards knew about the plan to take a detour to pick up the grandparents; even the third squad leader, Qin Fen, hadn't told them.
The main reason was that Xia Ke felt it was a trivial matter; a two-day drive and a detour of more than ten kilometers were not worth mentioning.
Even if there was a traitor within the team, it was impossible for them to know about this beforehand.
Moreover, because of the traitor Liang Guozhi, Qin Fen confiscated everyone's satellite phones after the battle.
I plan to have it appraised by technicians after I get back, and then return it to everyone.
Everyone agreed with this; as soldiers, they all understood.
The convoy deviated from the main road and took a detour to Yong'an Village, where the grandparents lived.
Along the way, all I could see were wild grasses that had grown to more than a person's height. It had only been a week since I left, and the grasses had grown at least 50 centimeters taller than the average height before.
Feather Fan released his divine sense and sensed the wood elemental energy drifting from the roadside, becoming even more certain of one thing—the spiritual energy of Blue Star had indeed been revived.
Okay, very good, excellent!
If the arrival of the apocalypse is accompanied by the revival of spiritual energy, it means that this planet is about to upgrade from a purely technological plane to a plane where technology and cultivation coexist.
When all living beings are bathed in abundant spiritual energy, human physique and lifespan will be greatly improved.
Moreover, humans are the most intelligent of all creatures. Even though their lifespan is much shorter than that of many animals and plants, humans have intelligent brains. In the path of cultivation, they will inevitably lead other species and eventually stand at the top of the food chain.
From afar, the entire village could be seen to be surrounded by thick, dense branches, like a wall enclosed by plants.
When Yu Shan saw the long, sharp thorns on the branch, he laughed.
Isn't this the branch of the third-tier mutated tangerine tree that she left behind before she left?
Sensing the approaching vehicles, the tangled branches of the citrus tree on the plant wall suddenly sprang out like bristling hedgehogs, baring their claws at the convoy.
The feather fan chuckled even more: This little thing has actually learned how to intimidate!
She pushed open the car door and was the first to jump out.
Sensing the familiar presence, the tangerine branch drooped down instantly, gently rubbing its tip against her palm, its docile appearance like that of a well-behaved kitten.
This scene stunned everyone in the convoy, especially the four guards who were already on high alert and ready to protect her at any moment.
The plant wall splits in the middle, revealing a passageway large enough for a car to pass through.
Yu Shan waved to Xiao Yu, the driver in the car, signaling him to come inside with her.
Jiang Tao and four guards followed her inside. This was a national treasure, and they had to protect it at all times.
Four power-type ability users were standing in the back of the military truck, helping her grandparents carry their belongings, while the rest of the people stayed outside the village to wait.
After Yu Shan and his party entered the village, the whole village was alarmed. More than thirty elderly people and children ran out of their homes to see what was going on.
Grandma Liu from next door came over and said warmly, "Little Fan is back? Judging by this entourage, you've come to pick up your grandparents to go to the city, haven't you?"
“Yes, I’ll take them to live with my parents. I’m worried about leaving them here,” Yu Shan said.
“The world is in such a mess, a family should stay together,” Grandma Liu said.
The village chief also came over and said, "Little Fan, thanks to the mutated tangerine tree you left behind, after you left, it shredded all the zombies that came near our village into bone fragments."
Now our village is a well-known safe village, and everyone says it's because of our good name.
Yong'an Village, doesn't it mean eternal peace?
But everyone in the village knows that if you hadn't come back, where would our village have any peace?
If you want to take your grandparents with you, we can't stop you, but if there's a shortage of food and lodging in the city, then leave them here.
Don't worry, everyone will take good care of the elderly couple.
"Thank you all for your kindness, but we are already living and eating very well. We came here today specifically to pick them up and bring them into the city," said Yu Shan.
While Yu Shan was exchanging pleasantries with the villagers, Grandma approached Jiang Tao and asked, "Commander Jiang, what brings you here today to accompany my little fan back home?"
When Yu Shan and Jiang Tao left before, they were afraid that their grandparents would worry, so they made a special detour back to the village, which is why their grandmother recognized him.
"We were on a mission in this area, and we just happened to come back with her to help you move." Jiang Tao said with a smile, without the slightest air of a leader.
Hearing him say that, Grandma quickly pulled Yu Shan into the house and said, "Little Shan, Grandma and your grandpa are doing quite well in the village. I know that houses in the city are expensive and small. Why don't we not move?"
Before the apocalypse, Yu Shan's parents had planned to bring their grandparents to the city to live with them.
However, after staying in the city for three days, they complained that the city was too crowded and the prices were too high, so they returned to the village and resolutely refused to live in the city.
Even though it's the end of the world now, their thoughts haven't changed.
"Don't worry, our place is much bigger now, and Grandma, your special ability means you'll get better treatment from the government after you go there," Yu Shan said.
Jiang Tao, who was standing to the side, assumed that Yu Shan was just saying that to appease the old man.
Grandma is an old lady in her sixties or seventies. Even if she has superpowers, they would at most be the most common wood or earth type.
After going to the regimental headquarters, you'll most likely only be able to go to the plantation to help loosen the soil or something. How good can the treatment be?
Of course, out of consideration for her granddaughter, he would put in a word with the relevant departments to ensure that the plantation receives the best possible treatment.
Grandma was tempted when she heard that her special ability would earn her good treatment.
Which elderly person doesn't love family reunions and being surrounded by their children and grandchildren?
I didn't want to go before because I was afraid of burdening my children and grandchildren. Now that I can make money, it would be foolish not to go!
Although I'm quite reluctant to leave my old friends in the village, I still prefer to see my own children every day.
