Chapter 363: The Unreliable Golden Crow (Request for Full Order)
At this time, Hua Yang was in the space, with two naughty kids who had transformed into their original forms, staying next to Huanxianer's mental power.
After entering the flowery space, the two fat little ground squirrels ran around happily.
Sometimes they went to the river to catch fish, sometimes they went to the sea to catch pearl oysters. Sometimes they went to the mountains to catch the gyrfalcons that were hatching eggs, sometimes they went to her fields to eat vegetables. In short, they were very happy. They didn't care about the mood of their mother river Huayang, their cheap owner.
Just like that, Hua Yang and a ray of spiritual power glared at each other for more than half an hour. Suddenly, Huan Xian'er seemed to compromise and sighed.
“Phew, although I am unwilling that my child would do this to your contracted beast, at least they are safe here!
Hua Yang, I want you to promise me that no matter what happens in the future, you will protect them, okay?"
Hua Yang was a little uncomfortable with the sudden serious atmosphere. "Huanxian'er, is there no way to cancel the contract?"
The form formed by Huanxianer's spiritual power had empty and confused eyes, and then turned strange.
"Yes, if the soul of the contract subject is annihilated, then the contract will be automatically terminated."
Hua Yang's body shuddered when Huan Xian'er looked at her. "Don't look at me like that. Although I really want to cancel the contract with your two children, I don't want to die! Between life and death, I will always choose to live!"
Huanxianer glared at Huayang angrily, then her mental power drifted towards the two giant ground rats that had transformed into their original forms.
At this moment, the Golden Crow suddenly flew over from the other side of the mountain range, and a red, flaming object fell out of its mouth.
Hua Yang looked closely and got goose bumps all over her body. Wasn't this little red insect with flames the same ladybug-like thing that was attracted by that bastard Jinwu when they were in the inner world of the Earth's Core Fire?
She had never touched this thing, so how could it be in her space?
"Where did this bug come from?" Hua Yang looked at Jin Wu with a shifty look and a guilty look, and tried hard to recall the scene at that time.
She remembered that in order to protect it, she simply put it in the space.
Hua Yang looked at Jin Wu suspiciously, "Let me ask you, why did those flaming ladybugs chase you so hard?"
Seeing that his master was looking at him as if he knew everything, Jinwu could only explain hesitantly.
"I, I stole the fire beetle's eggs. But I only stole a few! Really!"
Hua Yang now wanted to pry open the head of the Golden Crow to see what was inside! At that time, he was almost killed by the group of flaming ladybugs in the Earth's Core Fire. The reason was that he stole the eggs of the fire ladybugs?
However, history is long gone and things are done as they are, so even if Hua Yang wanted to look up the old imperial calendar, she wouldn't be motivated.
"What's so good about these insect eggs? Why put them in my space? I don't like insects!"
"Master, this firefly is one of the favorite foods of our Jinwu clan! Moreover, it can speed up my growth and increase my strength! Fireflies are fire-type and are bred in the fire of the earth's core. Although the earth's core fire is not as good as the sun's true fire that is unique to our Jinwu clan, it is enough for the resource-poor Earth!"
After hearing what Jin Wu said, Hua Yang immediately checked all the plants, animals and objects in her space.
Upon seeing this, Hua Yang was stunned.
Under the leaves of wheat in the center of the spiritual field, there were densely packed red insect eggs, which gave Hua Yang goose bumps. She wanted to throw all these insect eggs out of the space.
But thinking that these were things that could promote the growth of the Golden Crow, Hua Yang suppressed her temper and transplanted all the wheat covered with insect eggs to the open space behind the mountains.
Finally, replant wheat in the empty spiritual field.
When Hua Yang was collecting supplies, she only collected wheat seeds. Although wheat can be used to make wine and flour, it cannot replace rice.
Now the rice in her space has run out. Eating noodles all the time will make you tired. It seems that she needs to contact Xing Lie and others to find some rice seeds for her before returning.
After dealing with the fire beetle eggs, Hua Yang also discovered a surprising phenomenon in the space.
Among the five mountain ranges, a ruby-like object actually appeared inside the body of one of the mountains.
Moreover, this ruby actually emits the same energy magnetic field as the energy gem that was stored in the space last time. The energy contained in it is of the same quality as the best quality energy gem that Hua Yang placed in the thatched hut.
Energy gems are mineral resources coveted by all major powers in various countries in the universe, and can cultivate many powerful people with special abilities.
Since it is a mine, it must grow in the mountain. So, could this bright red spot in the mountain really be a vein of energy gems?
But why didn't she remember that there were mineral veins in the mountains in her space?
Or is it an additional function after the space was upgraded? Extract rare minerals from the space and then infiltrate them into the mountain to form mineral veins?
Hua Yang looked at the few pieces of metal in the space.
An axe and dagger strengthened by a gold-type mutant, a few tools used for farm work, and besides the plane she placed in the back mountain, there were only her original mobile phone and tablet.
Let's see if the dagger works first.
But how to do it? What metal is the dagger made of? Iron? Steel? Or an alloy? If it's a metal ore, it must be a pure metal of the same type, right?
So Hua Yang tried every possible way and used her control over space to separate all the components of the dagger.
Unfortunately, it's useless.
The texture of axes and farm tools should be similar to that of daggers, and Hua Yang didn't want to waste another axe. So she paused the activity of proving that space can produce mineral veins.
Nothing will happen to the two naughty kids in the space, not to mention that their mother's mental strength is not bad here. It can be regarded as Hua Yang's disguised compensation to Huan Xian'er.
The Haicheng base is now a natural defense base, with a primeval forest with ferocious beasts and evolved plants everywhere. In time, Hua Yang thinks it might be able to develop into a forest world like the Eye of the Earth.
There are birds flying above, a lake below, fish swimming in the water, and wild beasts living in the forest.
But now she had one more thing to worry about.
Originally, after returning to the Haicheng base, Hua Yang planned to go to the original laboratory of the Haicheng Zoo and Botanical Garden to see if he could move some scientific research equipment back.
Hua Yang didn't dare give the antidote in the test tube found in the Kyoto laboratory to Gu Xiaoyue before it was tested. Moreover, in addition to Gu Xiaoyue, Lu Yanran's brother and sister and Wang Minhai were all injected with the drug. Even if the antidote was fine, one tube was definitely not enough.
She now deeply regretted why she did not throw the unconscious researchers into the space, stamp them with a seal, and bring them back in a package in the Kyoto laboratory. In this way, she could not only let these researchers test the safety of the antidote, but also continue the experiment and make a new antidote.
Another thing that gave her a headache was the current situation in the sky.
It was obvious that some creatures had started to become active in the air. They had almost lost their lives on the way back, so would Xing Lie have encountered the same problem when he returned to Haicheng?
Professor Li Mingqi is an expert in physics research. If he can make the dispersal device he mentioned in a short period of time and have it pass the test effectively, then this device will play a huge role for the current Haicheng base.
Because there are no more zombies in the Haicheng base.
However, there are many superpowers in the Haicheng base. A large group of superpowers have no crystal cores to upgrade, and they will be vulnerable to the battle with the zombies in the future.
Therefore, going to the nearest city, hunting zombies, and collecting more crystal cores for upgrading is the top priority of the Haicheng base now.
When Hua Yang came out of the space, the room was empty. She took out the satellite communicator and dialed a string of numbers. Xing Lie on the other end picked up the new communicator that he had just been equipped with and answered the call.
Hua Yang first reported to Xing Lie the problems she and her companions encountered on the way back this time, and asked him to be careful when he returned.
"Don't worry, I will be careful. Haicheng is rich in food, especially meat. I think you can take some out and make it into food that can be stored for a long time. It's better to be prepared in case of emergency in the future."
Hua Yang talked to Xing Lie for a long time. When talking about the antidote to remove the side effects of the medicine, Xing Lie smiled and said, "I have prepared all the experimental instruments and equipment, researchers and laboratory materials for you. You stay in Haicheng and take good care of your pregnancy and wait for me to come back."
Hua Yang thought that Xing Lie's previous words of "don't interfere in this matter" were only about Zhao Li and others. But she didn't expect that he had already arranged everything for her just when she had just summarized and figured out the matter.
"By the way, Alie, is there any grain seed store or warehouse in Kyoto?"
"Why? Tell me what you need and I'll bring it back."
"It's like this, the rice in my space is almost gone. If it's convenient, please find some rice seeds or seedlings for me. Because it's been a long time since the end of the world, it may not be easy to find. It's not necessary. If you see it, please bring it to me."
Xing Lie didn't say anything on the other end of the communicator, but nodded, which even he found very strange. Suddenly he felt that he looked a little stupid, so he laughed.
"Ah? What are you laughing at?"
"No, I just feel that I am honored to be able to work for Yangyang."
The two continued chatting on the communicator for a while. Xing Lie asked Hua Yang to go to bed early on the grounds that pregnant women needed enough sleep, and then the two ended the call which lasted more than an hour.
After hanging up the communicator, Xing Lie returned to his cold expression. Yan Suan came over at this time, approached him and asked, "Sister-in-law?"
Xing Lie nodded, but the hesitation in his eyes was something Yan Suan had never seen before.
"Boss, do you really plan to stay on Earth forever? When the time comes, we must return to our original bodies. Otherwise, we won't be able to keep this body."
"I see."
"I understand that my sister-in-law is very important to you, but, Boss, the situation on the cosmic battlefield is changing rapidly. Those powers cannot fall into the hands of other families. If you don't go back, those powers will belong to your eldest brother."
"Ayan, have you ever seen me fight a battle that I was not sure of?"
Yan Suan shook his head.
"Okay, let's continue to the center of Kyoto tomorrow. You need to upgrade quickly. You should also know that we don't have much time."
"Boss, with my sister-in-law's talent, she must have achieved a breakthrough to a higher level when we leave! We can take my sister-in-law with us."
Xing Lie pursed his thin lips, and the rose-pink color of his lips turned white and then returned to normal after being squeezed against each other.
"Ayan, if one day the universe we belong to is hit by a devastating blow and is on the verge of collapse, will you choose to stay and fight to the death, or become a deserter and leave until the next opportunity?"
Yan Suan was confused by Xing Lie's sudden question. "In our universe, since you are here, I have never thought of this question."
Xing Lie looked at the night outside the terrace indifferently. His expression made it impossible to tell what was in his heart. "Think about it now."
"Don't retreat! Defend till death!"
Xing Lie suddenly raised the corners of his lips and smiled, but there was some helplessness in his smile. If she could be less strong, less stubborn, less self-reliant, and more dependent on him, how good would it be? At least in the future when he wants to take her away, she will have no choice.
He met Yan Suan's eyes, revealing the same brilliance that flashed in his eyes when he thought of Hua Yang, "Your sister-in-law thinks so too."
Yan Suan frowned, "There are more and more broken places on Earth now. I can even feel that my strength is recovering continuously. Boss, even they are here. It is absolutely impossible to stabilize this space."
Seeing that Xing Lie didn't say anything, Yan Suan continued to persuade him. "Boss, you have to analyze these pros and cons to your sister-in-law! Once the space of a world is broken, any life will be wiped out instantly.
Aren’t those people coming here just for these space fragments that can expand the territory?
No, wait! Boss, if those guys find any clues about the divine internal space in my sister-in-law's body, the consequences will be..."
Xing Lie exhaled and nodded, "So, you must recover your strength immediately. Those people cannot be left alive."
Before dawn the next day, thirteen special forces soldiers set out from the base. Their target this time was the tens of thousands of zombies in the city, and they needed crystal cores.
When we returned to the Kyoto base after dark and arrived at their small, shabby courtyard, Zhu Qingqing had been waiting in the living room for a long time.
Seeing them coming back, Zhu Qingqing immediately walked over with a smile on her face, showing the shyness of a little girl.
Xing Lie glanced at Xiao Wu and went straight upstairs. Yan Suan and the others thought it was not appropriate for them to interfere in their brothers' affairs, so they made an excuse to leave.
As soon as Zhu Qingqing opened her mouth and called out "Brother Lie", almost everyone present had left, leaving only Xiao Wu.
"Brother Xiaowu, what's wrong with everyone? Why do they seem to dislike me?"
When Xiaowu saw Zhu Qingqing again, he felt mixed emotions. He should have realized that with Zhu Qingqing's personality, how could the little girl who took care of him back then be her?
"Qingqing, let me ask you, when I woke up that year, I was at your house. Before I woke up, were you the one who was taking care of me?"
Zhu Qingqing paused, then smiled with a guilty conscience, "Who else could it be if not me? I am the only daughter in my family!"
Xiao Wu nodded, his expression still indifferent. "You came here to see me?"
"It's like this. Dad asked me to ask you if you have time to come home for dinner." Zhu Qingqing began to hesitate as she spoke, her voice getting smaller and smaller. "By the way, by the way, Dad said that it's time for us to make a decision."
Xiao Wu looked at Zhu Qingqing, his eyes no longer showing the color they once had. "No, we're very busy lately, you should go back first!"
But Zhu Qingqing didn't seem to understand what Xiaowu meant at all. Instead, she grabbed Xiaowu's arm and acted like a spoiled child.
"Brother Xiaowu, where have you been? I've been looking for you at the base all day!"
Xiao Wu frowned slightly and pushed Zhu Qingqing's hand away. "Qingqing, listen carefully. Thank your father for his kindness on my behalf. You and I... let it go."
Zhu Qingqing finally realized that Xiaowu's "no time" was actually a rejection of her. Her innocent and clean face suddenly turned pale.
"Brother Xiaowu, why? Did I do something wrong? Why do you suddenly dislike me?"
Xiaowu had a cold expression and the atmosphere between the two of them became frozen, something Zhu Qingqing had never felt before.
"Stop talking, Qingqing. Some things can't be kept secret forever. Go away and don't come to see me again."
After saying that, Xiaowu went straight upstairs, leaving Zhu Qingqing alone in the living room in a daze.
Zhu Qingqing returned home in a state of despair. Her father Zhu Litao and mother Qiao Wenyan were not at home, but her aunt Qiao Mi was there. Qiao Mi saw Zhu Qingqing with tears in her eyes and asked curiously.
"Didn't I ask you to invite Xing Lie, Xiao Wu and the others to our house for dinner? Your father said that this is the best time to cooperate with Xing Lie.
Where's Xiaowu? Your marriage should have been settled long ago."
Hearing Qiao Mi say this, Zhu Qingqing cried even harder.
"Aunt, Xiaowu, Xiaowu may not like me anymore."
Qiao Mi didn't feel as sorry for Zhu Qingqing as she had imagined. When she heard her say that, she suddenly smiled slightly, "You should know why Xiao Wu has always tolerated you. What's there to cry about?
Your parents will be back soon. If you can't even do this little thing, what's the point of having you! I'm going back to my room to sleep. Don't disturb me."
As Qiao Mi's back disappeared, Zhu Qingqing felt even more aggrieved.
My aunt used to love her very much! Why did she become a different person after she came back from the quarantine? She mocked her openly and secretly, and occasionally dug a pit for her to fall into, laughing happily.
Why these sudden changes?
Zhu Qingqing was puzzled and kept thinking about it over and over again as if she was stuck in a dead end. Finally, she pointed the finger at one person.
Flowers.
After the sister-in-law came back from the quarantine area and lost her child, she became at odds with her. At that time, the sister-in-law was hiding in the quarantine area, besides a group of pregnant women, there was also Hua Yang!
Originally, he had no problems with Xiaowu, but why did Brother Xiaowu suddenly dislike him after Hua Yang came?
It is unlikely that the person who took care of Xiaowu after he disappeared and found him injured was not her! The person who prepared the medicine at that time was Gu Renbin. At that time, Gu Renbin was urgently summoned to the emergency room and sent the injured and unconscious Xiaowu and a little girl who took care of him to her home.
"Hiss! That little girl, could it be Gu Renbin's granddaughter, Gu Xiaoyue?"
But after such a long time, why would anyone want to look up the almanac to prove it clearly?
She had never thought that Gu Xiaoyue was Gu Renbin's granddaughter. That girl looked carefree and silly, and she didn't seem like someone who cared about so many things!
Zhu Qingqing thought for a long time with a flushed face, and finally blamed Hua Yang for all the setbacks and changes.
It must be this Hua Yang who plotted against her behind her back and said bad things about her. Brother Xing Lie likes her, so Xiao Wu has to listen to her!
Yes, that must be it!
"No, I have to find a way to explain it to Xiaowu!"
