Chapter 92 Village

The location where they just fought was mainly on the west and south of this wilderness, so Guo Bao Rou might run in the opposite direction, and there was a big river in the east, so the only possibility was to go north along the river.

After a short rest, the two of them continued to ride north along the river, calling Guo Bao Rou as they walked.

Yun Shuhuai kept turning on the energy sensing, fearing that he would miss any clues.

But they searched almost everywhere in the vicinity for an entire afternoon and still couldn't find him. As

the sky gradually darkened and the sun began to set, the two of them sat on a big rock on the side of the road, feeling a little lost.

Xi Qing sighed softly as she looked at Yun Shuhuai with his eyes downcast and expressionless face. She had never seen Yun Shuhuai like this before. Ever since she first met her, she always looked as if she was in a state of ease. Even in the most dangerous situations, she never lost her composure. Yun Shuhuai

once said that both her parents were dead, and Guo Bao Rou was her last family member. It meant a lot to her. Xi Qing herself also particularly liked Guo Bao Rou, which brought her a lot of comfort in this cruel doomsday.

"Let's look for it again. If we can't find it here, it means it's not here. If a cat is too scared, it will usually hide in a high place or a small corner. There are no trees around here. There happens to be a village over there. Let's go there and take a look." Xi Qing suggested.

Yun Shuhuai nodded. She really had no strength left. She had been using the energy sensor for the whole afternoon, which consumed a lot of energy, but it didn't matter to her now.

Xi Qing rode her to the distant village.

The closer they got to the village, the fewer large rocks there were on the ground, which meant that they had left the territory of the zombies before, but nothing mattered anymore, after all, they were all dead.

The sun was setting, and the two soon arrived at the outskirts of the village. However, this village looked a little strange. Not to mention the desolate feeling that is common in the end of the world, the abnormality of this village can be seen with the naked eye: the houses, the ground and even the trees in the village are covered with some light yellow linear things.

Xi Qing took a closer look and recognized them. They were dodders.

Dodders often parasitize plants, and the strange thing is that some of them even covered the house and the ground.

"It's a mutant plant, be careful." Yun Shuhuai in the back seat reminded her.

"Such a thin vine, it doesn't look dangerous."

Yun Shuhuai said, "Don't let your guard down, go in and take a look first, I'll turn on the energy shield."

"Okay."

Yun Shuhuai's energy shield can shield her own aura and can "fool" zombies or mutant plants and animals of a lower level than her, but the premise is that they have not discovered her. If she attacks during the shield period, the shield will also be invalid. This is why Yun Shuhuai did not turn on the shield when he encountered the group of zombies before.

Now they haven't entered the village yet. After opening the shield outside the village, Xi Qing drove her into the village.

As expected, there was no one in the village, only a few zombies on the road. Xi Qing rode past them directly. They seemed to be interested in this thing that had no breath but could run and began to follow behind, but they only chased for a few steps and stopped. They didn't rush over as excitedly as they usually did when they saw humans.

The road in the village was not very wide, and there were some vehicles and debris blocking the road. The two of them didn't drive fast, which just made it convenient for Yun Shuhuai to use energy perception.

They drove along the roads in the village one by one. Yun Shuhuai checked the houses beside the road one by one to see if Guo Bao Rou was hiding in any building.

God helps those who work hard. Finally, when they drove to a certain place, Yun Shuhuai suddenly called Xi Qing: "Stop!"

"Found it!?"

"Yes, I sensed it, it's here!" Yun Shuhuai exhaled deeply, feeling relieved, "Thank you so much, Aqing!"

"Where, no need to thank me, Guo Bao Rou is also my companion. Do you know the exact location? Let's take it back. It must be scared after running out for so long."

Yun Shuhuai carefully sensed it again, but the sensing result made her confused, "It's so strange... I sensed that Guo Bao Rou is underground..."

"What?"

"I don't know what happened, but I'm sure that Guo Bao Rou is fine. Let's go check it out first. Turn right in front."

Xi Qing rode the bike to the right, and under Yun Shuhuai's guidance, they finally stopped in front of a strange house.

This house is a small bungalow commonly seen in rural areas. Compared with other houses, it looks a bit simple and shabby. It can be seen that the family's conditions were not very good before the end of the world. There is also a big hole in the red brick courtyard wall.

The reason why it is strange is that the surroundings of this house are covered with a large amount of light yellow dodder, much more than elsewhere. The gap in the courtyard wall is covered by dodder weaving. Looking through the gap, the doors and windows of the rooms inside are covered tightly with dodder, and Guo Bao Rou is in the basement of this house.

Yun Shuhuai got out of the car, squatted on the ground and sensed carefully, "There are three people underground. Guo Baorou is with them. There are two psychics, one is a third-level wood-type, and the other is a first-level..." Yun Shuhuai tilted his head in confusion and said, "Such a strange superpower... I'm not sure."

"So these things were made by wood-type psychics. They seem to be used to protect them."

"Yeah."

"They are hiding underground, so how do we call them out?" Xi Qing asked, "We don't know whether they are good or bad? What if Guo Baorou was captured by them as reserve food?"

"Huh, if you dare to touch Guo Baorou, I dare to touch them." As he said that, Yun Shuhuai stretched out his arm blade and began to cut the dodder on the hole in the wall.

Although these dodders look fragile, Yun Shuhuai felt their strong toughness when he cut them. It was difficult to cut them with ordinary blades, but after Yun Shuhuai injected energy into his arm blade, he cut them off easily.

There are dodders everywhere in this village. They must have been created by the psychic to detect the surrounding situation. Since they are artificially manipulated, their owner must be able to sense if they are destroyed, especially next to his hiding place.

Yun Shuhuai cut off the yellowish vines with one knife, but then they suddenly moved. The vines at both ends of the cut grew rapidly and soon touched each other, and then entangled with each other and connected.

They are repairing themselves.

Seeing this, Yun Shuhuai attacked them again, and they repaired themselves again.

After repeating this several times, the dodders stopped repairing themselves and suddenly turned to attack Yun Shuhuai.

She raised her eyebrows, grabbed the vines with her bare hands, and injected energy into them. The vines began to wither visibly around her hands, until the vines on this wall almost completely lost their vitality and fell off.

Yun Shuhuai felt the person underground move. It seemed that the person realized that there was a troublesome guy outside and was ready to come out to check. She sensed that the person walked to a certain place and began to move upwards, and finally stopped near the ground. Yun Shuhuai looked over and found that the location was exactly an abandoned well in the yard, and the roots of the dodder seemed to have crawled out from there.

A brick at the bottom of the well moved quietly, moving away a little to reveal a small hole. It must be someone inside checking outside. Yun Shuhuai stared at the small hole, stretched out his hand, and greeted with a smile: "Hi~Have you seen my cat?"

The person at the well mouth looked for a while, and found that they were not zombies, then lifted the thing covering the well mouth and carefully poked his head out.

Yun Shuhuai and Xi Qing looked at him in surprise.

A child?
