After hearing what Xing Taian said, several people were very impressed.
Moreover, Xing Taian did not describe how difficult their process was, nor did he exaggerate his own contribution, as if he was just narrating a very normal thing.
"Then how do you solve the problem of food here?"
Ren Yingjie couldn't help but ask.
He studies agriculture. After taking a look around here, he found that there were no grains or other crops grown here. He was very curious about how these people made a living.
"Hey, this is our most difficult problem right now. We also go out with some people with special abilities in the shelter to kill zombies and get crystal cores. Now we have a lot of crystal cores, but there is no place to buy food. So every once in a while, we will ask a few brothers to go to several nearby bases to exchange crystal cores for some food. However, the price they sell it to us has increased several times."
Xing Taian frowned and said that a grain of food could stump a group of people. Even if they knew they were being slaughtered, it would be useless if they couldn't exchange it for food, no matter how many crystal cores they kept.
Moreover, the demand for crystal cores among the people in the shelter is almost zero, because they have no business to do.
"That's too much! Not allowing the elderly and children to enter is bad enough, but they also charge you a high price for food?"
Lin Xiuyuan couldn't help but slammed the table and said.
"In the end times...there is no humanity"
Xing Taian smiled bitterly, just like he didn't think what they did was very humane. It was more out of responsibility and the influence of so many years in the army.
If you only rely on personal connections to help others, I believe few people can keep doing it.
Pei Yuan and his companions were quite touched. They knew very little about the end of the world, and they did not expect that the elderly and children would be openly regarded as useless.
Xing Taian lived next to this yard. Because he had to go and pick up the brothers who came back from exchanging food today, he left after settling them down.
The group found that the two-story building was also cleaned very cleanly.
According to Xing Taian, the elderly people here would spontaneously clean every corner of the shelter when they were free. They knew that they could not kill zombies, so they probably just wanted to protect this place with what they could do.
There are many rooms in the small building. Considering that Pei Yuan and Qin Yiran might have difficulty going up and down the stairs, Su Jin let them live on the first floor, while she and Lu Hao and others lived on the second floor.
Looking at Lian Jiyue who was still sleeping in the car, Su Jin tied him up with vines and took him to a small room on the second floor.
"Sister Xiaojin, when will he wake up?"
Mao Qiqi lay beside Lian Jiyue and muttered.
"The fever has completely subsided and he went downstairs. He should be waking up soon."
Su Jin said uncertainly. In her opinion, the fact that Ji Yue did not turn into a zombie and his fever subsided smoothly was already a very good result.
"Where are Lin Xiuyuan and Uncle Nie?"
Looking at the empty rooms, Su Jin asked Lu Hao.
"They said they were hungry, so they went in to eat," Lu Hao said in Su Jin's ear.
After hearing this, Su Jin realized that they had been out for such a long time today and seemed to have not eaten anything yet. Dr. Pei and the others were probably hungry too.
But she only dared to take out the dry food and instant food in the space. Even so, Pei Yuan and the others were still quite surprised.
"Here...we still have some dry biscuits with us, so just make do with them. You can keep them for yourselves."
Pei Yuan knew how scarce food was right now, but Su Jin actually gave them white flour bread, braised eggs, and a bag of braised meat in a brown sauce... How could they accept this?
Su Jin said jokingly, "The S City base will still rely on you guys as the strongest brains in the future. We can't let you starve. Besides, this braised meat is the meat of the mutant animals we hunted before, so it's not a rare thing."
"Su Jin, thank you! You are our adopted parents. Your kindness will be unforgettable forever!"
As Ren Yingjie spoke, he bowed deeply to Su Jin.
"Okay, hurry up and eat. It's not too late yet. We can still walk around here later."
Su Jin left after she finished speaking. She was also hungry and planned to take turns with Lu Hao and the others to go into the space to have dinner.
Mao Qiqi had fallen asleep next to Lian Jiyue. Su Jin and Lu Hao didn't have the heart to wake her up. She hadn't slept well all day and night, so let her have a good rest.
Mao Qiqi felt like she had a bizarre dream.
In her dream, she was lying on an animal covered in white fur, running across a vast expanse of grass. The warm sunlight shone on her body, and she could even see the snow-capped peaks of the distant mountains between the animal's ears...
Until the animal seemed to be tired of running and lay down on the grass with its limbs, and then slowly put her down.
She lay on the wet grass and finally saw the animal clearly. It was a pure white dog with silver-gray pupils...?
Suddenly, the animal stood up, its ears erected in alertness, and then it ran quickly in one direction.
Its body was agile and swift, and it soon disappeared from sight.
Mao Qiqi panicked. She was alone on this green grassland. Where were her family members? Why was she alone?
It was not until she felt very hungry that the white animal came into her sight, with a bloody animal in its mouth. Then it placed the bloody animal in front of Mao Qiqi, as if to indicate that she could eat it.
Mao Qiqi wanted to say she didn't want to eat it, but she suddenly realized she couldn't speak. Then, she saw the dog standing on a big rock in the grass, howling at the sky. That cry was clearly the howl of a wolf...
"Qiqi? Qiqi?"
It seems like someone is calling her?
Mao Qiqi rubbed her eyes and sat up, and saw Su Jin beside her.
"Sister Xiaojin?"
"You fell asleep, and I heard you say you were hungry, so I woke you up. Do you want to go in and eat something?"
Su Jin asked with concern. She had just clearly heard Qiqi say that she was very hungry.
Mao Qiqi touched her flat belly, nodded, and then disappeared from her seat.
In the E City base, Jasmine barely slept all night, accompanying Lian Ze to find a piece of information from a pile of messy documents.
"Z3157! I found it, Dean!"
Jasmine excitedly took a crumpled document and handed it to Lian Ze.
Lian Ze took the document without saying a word, opened the title page and began to read:
Sample Z3157, Extraction Target: Mutated Wolf's Beast Core, Extraction Quantity: One...
