Chapter 119 Lan Suxin, Mountain Top
Lu Xingtang pulled out a large knife from the car and pressed it against the old man's chest: "We have come this far because of our ruthlessness!"
The old man was so frightened by the sight of the sword that he dared not move. "I... I have seeds. I'd like to trade them for a bite of food, okay? Just one bite? I haven't eaten in ages. Please!" He pulled a palm-sized bag from his pocket, "A handful of wheat seeds, and a tree seed..."
Lu Xingtang took the old man's bag and looked at it. It was indeed wheat seeds, but the quality was not very good. It could not be compared with the wheat seeds in her space. However, she did not recognize this tree species. It was round and pitch black, about the size of a glass marble.
"What kind of tree is this?" Lu Xingtang asked curiously.
The old man lowered his eyelids. "I don't know either. I found it in Lingyin Temple!"
Lu Xingtang put away the big knife and gave the old woman a sweet potato. The moment the old man saw the sweet potato, tears filled his eyes. He took a light bite, and the sweet potato's flavor immediately spread in his mouth. "Thank you, young lady!"
The old man couldn't bear to eat any more, so he put the sweet potato in his pocket. "Girl, this seed is very important. Please take good care of it in the space. The revival of our Blue Planet depends on this seed! You and this seed are the last hope of Blue Planet! Otherwise, even if we have the space, Blue Planet will be destroyed!"
Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo: "!!!"
The old man looked at their shocked expressions and continued, "Lu Xingtang, you must survive! Also, be careful of the manager of Shuanglong Base. Her name is Lan Suxin. She knows your secret! You must kill her! If she dies, your crisis will be over!"
As the old man finished speaking, his figure gradually disappeared. "Remember, that seed!"
Seeing the old man disappear, Lu Xingtang pinched himself hard. It hurt, it was not a dream!
"This person knows my secret!" But who is he? I have never seen this person in my past life or this life!
Lu Xingtang looked at Ji Yanmo solemnly, and Ji Yanmo was equally serious. "Since we're here, let's just make the best of it. Let's stay calm and wait and see what happens!"
"Lan Suxin?" The name sounded familiar, but I couldn't quite place it. Could this person be the one who possessed Song Yingwei in her past life? The one who knew the secret of her jade pendant's spatial existence?
The old man's words and sudden disappearance made Ji Yanmo and Lu Xingtang extremely alert. For the rest of the journey, no matter who they saw, they would find them suspicious and would take a few more glances at them.
They didn't stop until they reached the center of Hangzhou, only a day's journey away from the Shuanglong base.
After Ji Yanmo learned the specific location of the Shuanglong base, he and Lu Xingtang took out the offline map and began to study their next settlement location.
Lu Xingtang had an idea in mind. She wanted to avoid being discovered by the people at Shuanglong Base, and the location was very hidden. After she found the location, she told Ji Yanmo, "How about Qing'an Peak? It's not far from Shuanglong Base. It takes three days to walk there. The location is relatively high, and it's deep in the mountains. Even if we encounter refugees, we can handle it!"
Few people could reach Qing'an Peak. She had been there in her previous life, and the mountain was steep and difficult to walk on. If she hadn't been searching for supplies, she wouldn't have set foot on Qing'an Peak. Furthermore, Qing'an Peak was home to numerous wild beasts, and they had the ability to deal with them. Ji Yanmo's abilities were powerful, and while she didn't have any powers to protect her, she had guns and explosives! If all else failed, she could hide in the space, or collect the beasts and tame them.
Ji Yanmo studied Qing'an Peak carefully and said, "Then let's go to Qing'an Peak!"
So they headed towards Qing'an Peak and arrived there in two days. After all, riding a bike is faster than walking.
When arriving at Qing'an Peak, Ji Yanmo discovered that there were almost no refugees here, and the vegetation in the mountains was very lush and green. The entrance to the mountain was overgrown with weeds, and it was obvious that no one had ever entered the mountain.
Ji Yanmo and Lu Xingtang took out a telescope to observe the surroundings and saw the situation of Qing'an Peak clearly. Ji Yanmo said, "This place is very good. As long as there is no earthquake, we can live here for a long time!"
Lu Xingtang nodded, "I think so too!" Earthquakes will happen, but they won't happen in the next two years.
Ji Yanmo put the tricycle into the space and changed into sturdy clothes with Lu Xingtang, especially Lu Xingtang's face, arms, neck, legs and feet, which were protected tightly. The mountains were overgrown with weeds and thorns were taller than people, so they had to be careful, otherwise they would be disfigured. If there were poisonous insects, snakes or ants in the mountains, it would not be good if they bit them.
Ji Yanmo led the way in front, and Lu Xingtang followed under Ji Yanmo's protection. This made Lu Xingtang's eyes red. When she went into the mountains in her previous life, no one protected her. She was scratched by thorns or weeds, slipped on the moss on the rocks and fell into the bushes, or fell into the ravine. If it weren't for her good luck and long life, she would never have been able to walk out of Qing'an Peak.
When they reached halfway up the mountain, Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo took out a chainsaw and used it to cut whatever was blocking their way.
Throw the cut weeds and trees into the space and use them for cooking later.
They were also very cautious and didn't dare to saw too much, just enough for one person to walk through.
The two walked with difficulty. When they were tired and hungry, they found a place to rest and eat the food they had stored. After eating and drinking enough and resting well, they continued to climb the mountain.
Fortunately, she has been exercising in this life, otherwise she would be exhausted by the time she reached halfway up the mountain and would not be able to keep up with Ji Yanmo's pace.
Even though Ji Yanmo has taken good care of her.
They finally reached the top of the mountain before dark.
Qing'an Peak is straight and steep, but there is a very large platform on the top of the mountain. It is not known whether it was formed naturally or built artificially. In any case, this platform allows them to build a house on it and live there temporarily.
When Ji Yanmo saw the platform on the top of the mountain, his eyes lit up: "Tangtang, let's build a wooden house on the platform! I've learned about wooden houses with mortise and tenon joints before. Give me some time, and I'll build you a home that belongs to us."
Lu Xingtang took Ji Yanmo's hand and walked towards the platform: "Amo, you are wrong. You are not building a wooden house for me. We are building our house together!"
After getting on the platform, they looked around and unexpectedly found that they could see the Shuanglong base in their direction.
Ji Yanmo observed with a telescope. Although he couldn't see the Shuanglong base clearly, he could see the layout of the Shuanglong base clearly.
The accommodation area, planting area, breeding area, office area, hospital, school, commercial street, and warehouse area, each area is very large.
This was a pleasant surprise, even Lu Xingtang hadn't expected it. In her previous life, she hadn't come to this location to watch. "If there's any big move at Shuanglong Base, we'll know everything!"
