Chapter 150: Roses in the Villa Area
Hua Yang and his group followed Situ Mao into the villa area.
This villa area was originally a high-end residential area. It can be seen that there were some fights after the doomsday. The outermost wall was repaired with bricks, stones and gravel. Although the wall was not painted in one color, the wall was surrounded by earth energy, so it was known that the wall was repaired by an earth-type psychic and was extremely solid.
There were two guards standing at the gate of the villa area. After seeing Situ Mao coming with a large group of people, they saluted respectfully and then opened the gate of the villa area for them.
As soon as you enter the villa area, the environment of the entire area has undergone earth-shaking changes.
Just now when they passed through several other areas of the base, not only were all the buildings somewhat run-down, but at least on the walls of the small-rise residential buildings, there were obvious bloodstains that had been cleaned. Moreover, there was actually no division between the old-style residential buildings, small-rise buildings, and villas. The exterior gates of several residential areas had not been repaired, and some damaged walls had even been directly demolished.
The streets and alleys are filled with an unpleasant smell of disinfectant.
Although the disinfection work was done very well, there are limited houses in the three communities, but the number of people who need to be accommodated far exceeds the number of houses.
Although it is lively when people with special abilities mix with ordinary people, it can also invisibly create many hidden dangers.
Inside the villa area, there is a fountain right at the entrance. Hua Yang doesn't know if the water in the fountain is clean or not, but she definitely won't drink it.
The gravel path forks into four paths from the entrance, leading to different villa areas. Each path is lined with lush grass and rockeries. The most important thing is that there are one or two big trees at the intersections of several gravel paths, standing next to several wooden chairs, to provide shelter from the wind and rain.
Hua Yang suddenly noticed a few clumps of climbing roses in the grass or under the trees, with thick trunks and flexible branches. The thick leaves were particularly green. How come such a good-growing rose didn't bloom in such a place with just the right temperature and good ventilation?
Although the weather in Haicheng is still very hot, winter is just a few days away. I wonder if these flowers and plants can survive the long winter that is about to begin.
Hua Yang had something in mind, so she casually asked Li Qing who was behind Situ Mao.
"Brother, can I ask you something? The green plants in your villa area are well taken care of. Is there someone who takes care of them?"
Li Qing was surprised that Hua Yang would suddenly ask him such an irrelevant question. However, this girl was very powerful, and even the leader was trying to win her over. He was ready to answer her question seriously, no matter how irrelevant it was.
"It's like this, no one takes care of the plants here."
Hua Yang looked at him thoughtfully and asked, "Is it so good without taking good care of it?"
"Yes, it's a good thing that there are water pipes under the green belt of this villa area, and watering is done regularly every day."
Hua Yang asked curiously, "Can you water it on time? Where does the water come from? Is it the same water as the fountain at the door?"
Li Qing thought about it and he himself was not very clear. He scratched the back of his head a little embarrassedly: "This, I am not too sure either."
"This water is drawn from the inland river outside the base. This includes the water from the fountain. Most of these water sources have been contaminated by zombies, so the people in the base can't drink them, but it's no big deal to use them to water the flowers. So we didn't close these water sources that existed before the apocalypse. Look, isn't the environment here well-moistened?"
As Situ Mao spoke, he smugly cast a wink at Hua Yang.
Situ Mao raised her eyebrows and found that Hua Yang didn't pay any attention to her. The little person actually left the team and walked to the lawn, squatting down to look at a bunch of roses.
Hua Yang did not mind the dirtiness and pulled apart a small piece of grass with her hands, then dug up a piece of soil to expose the roots of the roses. The roots of these roses were as thick as her arms, and the roots were woody and full of vitality. The branches they sent out were more than one centimeter in diameter, and each one was bright green, obviously absorbing nutrients from the fertile soil to grow so fast.
Hua Yang reached out and pinched the rose branch.
"Th!" It was as hard as iron, and it hurt her fingernails.
It takes a long time for plants to undergo alienation or other evolutions. In the previous life, when a large number of mutant plants appeared, it was already a year later.
But this doesn't mean that there is no such thing now! Hua Yang suddenly thought of the dogtail grass beside the guardrail of the highway. The dogtail grass is a special example.
Hua Yang looked inward at the dogtail grass by the river in space. Wow, after not paying attention for a while, the dogtail grass that originally had only a few buds had grown to more than ten centimeters long.
Hua Yang looked at the densely packed thorns on the rose branches, and felt a tingling sensation on her back. "It seems that these roses cannot be kept."
When everyone saw Hua Yang running to the lawn alone to look at some plants, they all stopped and waited for her.
Situ Mao saw Hua Yang staring at the rose without blinking, and added to what she had just asked Li Qing about green plants, "Could it be that this little woman likes flowers and plants? This is a good opportunity to improve their relationship."
Situ Mao walked closer to Hua Yang, stood beside her, and looked down at her studying the rose carefully, the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised.
The group of people on the gravel path did not wait for Hua Yang to stand up and return to the team. Instead, they saw Situ Mao standing beside Hua Yang with his head down and grinning foolishly.
One is standing and the other is squatting.
The man seems affectionate, but the woman, um, why is she lifting her sleeves?
Hua Yang lifted up her sleeves, grabbed the tender branch of the rose with few thorns, and pulled it hard.
This action stunned everyone including Situ Mao and Li Qing. Hua Jianming also looked at his daughter with a headache, not knowing how to describe it.
He knew his daughter had her own space where she could grow some flowers and plants. But was it really okay to pull out the flowers and plants in someone else's villa so blatantly?
"Yangyang, what are you doing? Do you need help?" Gu Xiaoyue watched Hua Yang pulling a vine for a long time without success, so she rolled up her sleeves and walked over.
Situ Mao wanted to stop him, but seeing Hua Yang squatting at his feet and trying hard to pull out the vines, it seemed really interesting.
"Xiaoyue, you try. You are a plant type, see if you can make this thing come out together?" Hua Yang had an idea. The plant type is the best choice for communicating with plants. Although Gu Xiaoyue is only level two now, the plant type is naturally friendly to plants. After she breaks through to the intermediate level, she can even communicate with some evolved plants.
Hua Yang stood up and looked at Situ Mao behind her, who pushed her back. "Step back a little, let Xiao Yue try."
Situ Mao really didn't know what to say at this moment. She looked at Hua Yang with amusement and tried to test him: "Well, Hua Yang, if you like roses, I'll have someone find some rose varieties that are easy to bloom for you later. They haven't bloomed in the past few days."
