Seeing that they couldn't persuade Banxia, Su Yao and the others simply gathered around Banxia and offered them suggestions.
Zhao Xuan spread out the city map: "We are currently 536 kilometers away from Shahe City. At a rate of 180 kilometers per day, it will take about three days."
To prevent accidents caused by driving too fast, they generally keep their speed at 30 km/h.
Su Yao stroked his chin: "Plants are afraid of fire, and I have a lot of cooking oil."
Banxia hadn't expected that her almost suicidal behavior would receive everyone's support, and she felt a pang of bittersweetness. However, this was her business, and there was no need for everyone to take the risk: "Brother Xuan, Brother Yao, you don't need to bother. I plan to go alone with Nanxing."
Fang Yunyun disagreed, saying, "No, it's too dangerous for just the two of you!"
“That’s right,” Cai Yuan agreed, “More people means more strength.”
Banxia said helplessly, "Have you forgotten that we're here to help fight the Zombie King? We need to leave some people here in Yanning."
She took out all the remaining firearms in the space, and the floor was covered with guns, bullets, bombs, rocket launchers, and grenade launchers.
Then, amidst the stunned expressions of Su Yao and the others, he smiled and said, "Are you all relieved now?"
Fang Yunyun gently closed her chin: "Don't worry, I'll be back soon!"
With these things and Banxia's mutated animal group around, even if they can't defeat the mutated banyan tree king, escaping will be no problem at all.
Banxia put the items back into her spatial storage: "I'm going to find Yan Ning."
"Go early and come back early," Nanxing instructed. "We'll have roast suckling pig for dinner."
Banxia immediately felt her saliva secreting like crazy, her eyes sparkling: "I'll be back soon!"
Yan Ning and her deputy argued for half an hour without reaching an agreement. When she heard that Banxia was looking for her, she took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, and went to the door to greet her: "Banxia, what do you want to see me about?"
Banxia, who was thinking about roast suckling pig, readily told him that she was going to Shahe City, and then assured him, "Don't worry, Nanxing and I will definitely catch up with the main force within half a month, and we won't delay our important task of fighting the zombie king."
Yan Ning looked at her with complicated eyes: "Sometimes I can't help but wonder if you owed me something in your past life, which is why you always save me from dire straits."
Banxia hadn't expected Yan Ning to think this way. In her past life, she had indeed received a lot of help from Yan Ning, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she owed her a debt of gratitude, but she had long since repaid it. The mutated animal attack on the city and the events in Shahe City were merely coincidences.
Banxia smiled and said, "Please don't think too highly of me."
Otherwise, you'll easily be disappointed.
She helped repel the mutated animals in order to harvest their meat and crystal cores; she went to Shahe City to check on the mutated banyan tree in order to understand the difference in combat power between the level six mutated plant and herself.
Yan Ning shook her head: "Judging by actions, not intentions."
There are many kind-hearted people in this world, but far fewer are willing to put their good intentions into practice. In her view, having the greatest good intentions is not as good as genuinely doing a small act of kindness.
Banxia didn't refute Yan Ning's views anymore, because she agreed with Yan Ning's ideas.
She remembered something: "I suspect there's something wrong with the survivors in Shahe City; you'd better not take them with you."
The moment she met the group of survivors, she knew they had definitely eaten many of their own kind; their bloodshot eyes were the best proof.
Furthermore, the mutated banyan tree has been protected by humans for thousands of years, so it should have great goodwill towards humans. Otherwise, how could it have waited until it evolved to level six before joining forces with other alien plants to drive away humans?
She suspected that the people of Shahe City had done something excessive to the mutated banyan tree, causing it to suddenly become enraged.
Yan Ning nodded: "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
As someone who has dealt with survivors for many years, she could tell at a glance that the group of survivors had eaten their own kind.
Banxia said goodbye with peace of mind: "Nanxing and I will set off tomorrow."
When she returned to the tent, Nanxing and the others were roasting two suckling pigs. One was honey-flavored, and the other was spicy.
The piglets' skin was roasted to a deep reddish-brown and glossy brown, filling the entire tent with an enticing aroma.
Nanxing took a dagger, cut off a piece of spicy suckling pig rib, put it on a white porcelain plate, and then beckoned to Banxia: "Wife."
Banxia smiled and took the plate, placing it on the table to slowly savor it.
The ribs are roasted for a longer time, resulting in a crispy texture and rich flavor, making them arguably the best part of the roast suckling pig.
Yinzi stared at Banxia's plate curiously for several seconds, then walked over to Nanxing, grabbed his arm, and gestured that she wanted to eat ribs too.
Nanxing quickly cut a piece for Yinzi as well, and after finishing, she couldn't help but exclaim to Banxia, "Why is Yinzi becoming more and more like a person?"
Banxia looked thoughtfully at Yinzi, who was using her wind-based abilities to cool down her ribs. Were the mutated animals in her previous life this intelligent?
In her previous life, she didn't have many interactions with mutated animals, but she did have a fair number of them, including several collaborations with mutated police dogs kept by the military.
Those mutant police dogs were exceptionally intelligent. They could not only understand human language, but also cooperated extremely well, hitting exactly where they were told, and almost never made a mistake.
But in general, their lifestyle is still more like that of animals: they eat raw food, drink raw water, and don't like to bathe.
However, after her cat and dog mutated, in addition to their increased intelligence, their behavior and eating habits gradually became more like those of humans.
Before the apocalypse, she would never have believed that one day cats and dogs would ask to be bathed every day, eat cooked food, and even deliberately avoid humans when relieving themselves.
Banxia imagined that if she woke up one morning and found that her gold and silver had started talking like human beings, she wouldn't be too surprised.
Banxia pondered for a long time but still couldn't figure out what was going on with this change. But she had a vague premonition that humanity might fall from its position at the top of the food chain and would no longer be able to easily dominate the fate of other creatures as it did before the apocalypse.
Banxia looked at Yinzi, who was sitting opposite her, and teased with a smile: "Yinzi, if you can speak human language one day, remember to call me 'sister' as your first words."
Yinzi raised its fluffy cat face and nodded solemnly: "Meow meow meow!"
I've got it!
"Cough cough cough!"
Nanxing, who was eating meat, choked. Was his silver really going to turn into a human?
Yinzi sighed and gently patted his back with her furry paws. "Brother is so clumsy!"
Nanxing looked at the obvious contempt in Yinzi's eyes and fell silent. His hands were itching, and only beating up a cat could relieve it!
Su Xiao quietly approached her dog, Da Ju, and whispered, "Da Ju, when you can speak human language, your first word should be 'sister,' okay?"
Big Orange tilted its head, thought for two seconds, and nodded.
The pet owner may be awful, but the pet owner's sister is an amazing groomer!
Zhao Xuan and Cai Yuan stared intently at Li Hua, who turned away speechlessly, her back to them.
Are you stupid? A cat is a cat, how could it possibly turn into a human?
