Chapter 560 Return with a Full Load
"Then Miss Yun, can you give us the remaining mushroom?" Cheng Xiuyi asked.
"Ah?" Yun Shuhuai looked at the graceful mushroom on the table and said, "Sure, but this kind of mushroom should grow everywhere in the forest. I'll tell you when I find it."
"Thank you very much."
"It's just a piece of cake."
Cheng Jiayi said again, "Since you have discovered this edible mushroom, what is it called? It must have a name."
"Hehe..." Yun Shuhuai couldn't help but smile.
Xi Qing held her forehead with
her hand and said, "It's over." Sure enough, Yun Shuhuai said excitedly, "I've already chosen a name."
"Oh? What is it?"
"Look, this mushroom is blue, tall and thin, and tastes like shiitake mushroom. How about we call it Blue Thin Mushroom?"
"Uh..."
Everyone was speechless.
Yun Shuhuai nodded, "It seems no one objects, so let's do it."
"Wait! I object!" Cheng Jiayi said with a look of disgust: "What a crappy name you chose, I thought you were telling a sneer, this joke is old and not funny. Anyway, I don't agree with this name."
Yun Shuhuai rolled her eyes at her, "It doesn't matter if you disagree, I was the first to discover it, I should be the namer."
"But this is too ugly, do you want us to live with food with such a name in the future?"
"Why not?"
The two girls suddenly quarreled about the naming issue.
Although Yun Shuhuai discovered the mushroom and should be named by her, everyone still wanted to stand on Cheng Jiayi's side.
After all, they also thought that the name was too...
In the end, it was Xi Ling who interrupted the quarrel.
He pulled Yun Shuhuai into his arms and said, "Hey, stop arguing. I'm also one of the discoverers. How about I give it a name? This mushroom makes people happy and blessed when eaten. How about calling it Laughing Mushroom? Do you agree? Shuhuai."
"Laughing Mushroom... that's fine." Yun Shuhuai didn't expect Xi Ling to use her online name to name it, and she felt happy.
Xi Ling looked at everyone again and asked, "What do you think?"
"... It's okay."
Although it's not that great, it's better than Lanshou Xianggu and sounds like a normal name.
So the farce ended just like that.
They will rest for another day today and leave tomorrow morning.
After everyone left, Cheng Jiayi still sat there, but her eyes were still on Yun Shuhuai and Xi Ling.
Her brother had a good talk with her in the morning, which made her understand a lot.
At least, she is no longer so sad because of Xi Ling.
In fact, she herself understands that she may not be able to win Yun Shuhuai, and her brother also discovered this. She asked herself not to get entangled, and it was too humble to like a man who didn't love her.
She is Cheng Jiayi, the leader of Shuguang and the one who controls the lifeline of the entire S City base. She should live proudly and should not be entangled by feelings that do not belong to her and stop moving forward. But it
will take some time to get out of it completely.
However, what she is thinking about now is why Xi Ling named the mushroom "Xiao Xiao".
Xiao Xiao, she learned from Du Hao in her previous life, was Xi Ling's white moonlight, but they had never met and only knew each other online for two years.
At that time, Cheng Jiayi was still very disdainful, thinking that she was just an insignificant netizen, but the longer she was in contact with Xi Ling, the more she understood how much Xiao Xiao occupied in his heart.
It was such a virtual person who was neither alive nor dead, but became the biggest stumbling block in her pursuit of Xi Ling, making her want to explode but unable to find anyone.
Cheng Jiayi felt that if she were a real person, she might have a chance of winning, but Xiaoxiao only existed in Xi Ling's thoughts. Under the baptism of the end-of-the-world background, she became the person he cared about the most.
Xiaoxiao might have become his belief, his persistence in surviving in the end-of-the-world.
Unknown whereabouts also meant infinite possibilities. Maybe Xiaoxiao was living well somewhere like him.
It was this possibility that made him determined to move forward in the end-of-the-world, and gradually became his signpost for moving forward.
Cheng Jiayi learned about Xiaoxiao's position in Xi Ling's heart when he accidentally saw his cousin confessing to Xi Ling. She complained to Xi Ling that he should stop guarding a dead person and enjoy life with her.
Naturally, she was ruthlessly rejected by Xi Ling afterwards.
That was the first time she saw Xi Ling so angry, the murderous intent almost solidified, and scared her cousin so much that she sat paralyzed on the ground.
He just said "get lost", and her cousin ran away.
From then on, Cheng Jiayi began to be curious about Xiaoxiao, but she didn't dare to mention her in front of Xi Ling, so she could only ask other people.
However, what did Yun Shuhuai do in this life to make Xi Ling forget his white moonlight.
No, it's not forgotten. Xi Ling must still remember her, otherwise he wouldn't use "Xiaoxiao" to name the mushroom that may save the lives of future survivors.
Now it can be confirmed that Xi Ling has not forgotten Xiaoxiao. Looking at Yun Shuhuai's appearance, she probably doesn't know that such a person exists.
Cheng Jiayi suddenly wanted to try again, to try how strong the relationship between Yun Shuhuai and Xi Ling is.
Sure enough, she still didn't want to give up.
How could Yun Shuhuai surpass Xiaoxiao and get to the top, but she couldn't?
If the result was still like this, then she would withdraw willingly and wish them all the best.
After resting for an afternoon, everyone packed up and set out again the next morning.
They planned to stay for a month.
Now it has been almost half a month, and the harvest has exceeded their expectations.
In Cheng Xiuyi's opinion, apart from the food, the biggest harvest was the Xiaoxiao mushroom.
This kind of mushroom is indeed very common in the woods in the south, but people usually don't pay much attention to it, or when they see it is blue, they think it is poisonous and deliberately avoid it.
I didn't expect that this kind of thing could be eaten. Maybe it's a mutant mushroom.
Food will be eaten sooner or later, but mushrooms will continue to grow in the world.
Now he finally understood what Yun Shuhuai meant by "there is always a way out". Maybe there are many mutant plants similar to the laughing mushroom, which seem very dangerous but are edible.
When he returns, he will report to the military and mobilize the power of the masses. Maybe they will soon find something that can replace food.
Looking at this world full of holes, Cheng Xiuyi feels bright about the future.
The agreed time has not arrived yet, so everyone wandered outside for another half a month.
Now that they know that Yun Shuhuai has the ability to block zombies, they have become much bolder.
A group of people walked directly into the city full of zombies.
Cheng Jiayi also took this opportunity to collect various materials in various shops in the city.
She thought of what Yun Shuhuai said about using the space as a hidden weapon bag, so she also collected a lot of things that can be used as throwing weapons.
Common ones include stones, wood, old furniture, cars, etc. What's more, she also put half a building in the space...
In the past, they rarely dared to go deep into the city. Even if they wanted to raid a large supermarket, they had to plan in advance to lure out and deal with the zombies inside, and there were many casualties.
Now with Yun Shuhuai's energy shielding protection, she let go of the collection and collected whatever she saw.
During this period, Yun Shuhuai was also busy. If she encountered a large number of corpses, she would never let them go. She assisted her people to easily deal with the corpses and harvest a lot of crystal cores.
Cheng Jiayi felt the many crystal cores that she had temporarily saved for Yun Shuhuai in her space. To be honest, she began to be tempted.
The crystal cores obtained in this month were almost equal to what Shuguang had obtained in three months, and the opponent was a team of only five people.
She couldn't help but wonder if her people were too slack.
Half a month passed quickly, and they went back on time.
Although there were some minor incidents along the way, Cheng Jiayi was generally satisfied.
The supplies she collected this time could sustain the base for several years. She also got news of edible mushrooms, and Shao Qi became even stronger.
I have to say that Yun Shuhuai is really reliable. What she got in just one month was beyond her expectations. It would be a lie to say that she is not grateful.
