Chapter 107 Mushroom Rain【VIP】
It was no longer raining outside, and people no longer needed to wear protective clothing, but someone still had to drain the remaining water on the roads, as well as the mold, mushrooms, and dead animals.
The cleanup team was reorganized, but the fire-type mutant became the most suitable cleaner, burning all the harmful things to ashes on the spot.
But there are countless places that need to be cleaned in the entire base alone. As for those on the periphery and outside the base, I can only see if I have time to go there in the future.
The planting and livestock areas suffered heavy losses, but fortunately there was a group of survivors who were not infected and could continue to survive in the cleaned areas.
The emergency protection also protected several important buildings and facilities, and even if there was damage, it only needed to be repaired in time.
Listening to the official report coming from the radio, the mushroom rain covering the entire country has temporarily stopped, and each base has begun to enter a recovery period.
But Tang Tian did not remove the metal protective cover in the house, because she still saw that the clouds in the sky had not dissipated. Each cloud was a dark gray color, and the entire sky was still gloomy.
These strange clouds appear when it rains, so she thought that this mushroom rain might be like a sandstorm, and there would be another one coming, so she couldn't completely relax.
Everything was fine with the Tang and Shen families, and the people in the base gradually returned to their jobs. Time passed like flowing water again.
Tang Tian reconnected to the Internet and logged onto the forum.
The latest posts have grown to several pages, but most of them are wailing for help, mourning their lost relatives and friends, and complaining that they had discovered mold a long time ago, but no one took their words seriously.
Some of them were like writing a paper, listing the different forms of fungal corpses and the appearance of those moldy mushrooms. Those who followed the post called them "big guys", who were either members of the armed team or researchers.
However, apart from these posts, the majority of the remaining posts are various requests for supplies.
There are bases within Chuncheng trading with each other, and there are also other cities doing business. Now water and food are the most scarce.
After all, if humans lack these, they really cannot survive.
After refreshing again, Tang Tian found the official post.
It turned out to be a base with many water-based mutants, which sent assistance to the nearby base.
Of course, this kind of assistance is not completely free, just like the last time when Changping Base and Chang'an Base sent each other people with special abilities, each side took what it needed.
I don’t know if the same thing will happen to Ping’an Base. If it does, Tang Tian can’t help but think of Gu Bin’s water fleet, and also the things they talked about on the road at that time.
Tang Tian placed her laptop on her legs, with a soft pillow behind her, and sat at the head of the bed, lost in thought.
To be honest, maybe it was because she was a host before the apocalypse, but she actually didn't like routine things and jobs, such as just following orders and staying in the armed team at the base every day.
She wanted to go out and see the world more than that. She also had enough supplies, so maybe they could even make their way to the base.
Before she could come to her senses, Tang Tian felt her side sink slightly, an arm was put around her shoulders, and a small warm mark appeared on her face.
"What are you thinking about?"
Shen Boyun's soft voice sounded and asked.
…
Tang Tian couldn't help but recall that he had initially hoped that he could join the armed team, and if he really resigned, Yang Gan probably wouldn't agree, so he shook his head and said it was nothing.
But Shen Boyun seemed to have noticed something. He took away the notebook and lay down on the bed with her. It was afternoon, a good time for a nap.
"Don't keep anything in your heart. The end of the world is already very difficult, and I am willing to be your listener, as long as you are willing to tell me."
With every word he spoke, heat hit his earlobe, causing a slight itch.
Tang Tian tilted her head slightly. The metal protective cover was still there, and light could not shine into the room. It was already dim, and now was a special period, and the electricity had not been fully repaired.
But a rare light-type mutant appeared in the base, and the kind that could create light balls with supernatural powers.
This kind of light ball can last for a period of time and can be used as a light source, so many people go to the psychic to buy light balls for lighting.
Tang Tian pretended to buy some, but actually she rolled a few balls of light and took them back. By controlling the direction and height, they could float there and emit light.
So she could clearly see Shen Boyun's face and those sparkling eyes at this time. At such a close distance, it seemed as if she was the only one in his eyes.
Tang Tian still didn't speak, but she used this mouth to do another thing - she pulled Shen Boyun's neck and kissed him.
Maybe she just wanted a more relaxing kiss right now.
Shen Boyun was not stingy at all. He pecked Tang Tian's upper lip, bit it lightly, or just held it in his mouth, circling it, and then bringing it all the way from top to bottom.
I have to say that after this period of time, he.
, but you can't kiss too long, otherwise it will become a suffocating feeling.
After they let go, they hugged each other for a while, expressing their inner thoughts.
The hand on his waist paused noticeably, Shen Boyun opened his eyes wide and asked:
"So... you've never liked working in the armed forces?"
"No, I thought it was pretty good at first. It's stable and the conditions are not bad..."
Tang Tian said slowly:
"But I'm kind of thinking about doing something else now... In pre-apocalyptic parlance, it's like changing jobs? Changing the environment?"
Shen Boyun said helplessly:
"You're probably the only one who thinks how hard it is for others to get a stable job. The key is that you can think this way."
But he also understood that Tang Tian had a relatively free job before the end of the world, so it was normal for her to have such thoughts. Besides, she had the qualifications and ability, and could choose the job she wanted.
So he thought for a moment and nodded:
"Then do what you want to do. I support you. We are not separated anyway."
It seems that in Shen Boyun's eyes, this is more important.
Of course, it was also because he didn't want to restrain Tang Tian. If he didn't say it, people would think that he was the one who forced Tang Tian to stay.
Tang Tian felt warm in her heart, but she still asked jokingly:
"Really? Then maybe we'll be in different places later? And aren't you afraid that if I go somewhere farther away and meet someone better, then..."
Shen Boyun's expression changed slightly, but since he had already said it, how could he take it back? For a moment, he looked like a wilted eggplant.
"It's okay, I believe you won't, and you are not that kind of person."
Shen Boyun's expression quickly changed to one of certainty, and his tone was firm, which was actually cute in Tang Tian's eyes.
Tang Tian smiled and kissed him again, letting the pleasure continue.
After deepening the kiss, the breathing of both of them became a little disordered, as if it was not just at this level, but gradually reached the final bottom line.
Shen Boyun released her hand after coming to his senses, and her face turned red again, but this time the color was obviously different, and it even looked a little flushed.
Tang Tian raised her leg with a smile on her face. She seemed to feel the indescribable changes that had already taken place in his body.
“Wait…”
Shen Boyun tensed up and felt a little bit at a loss.
"I still want to get your consent first," he said sincerely, "and right now, we can't take proper measures..."
Tang Tian looked at him silently, then opened the drawer of the bedside table, took out something from it, and waved it in front of him.
It turned out to be a child's burping mask.
Shen Boyun:?
No, why does it seem like it was prepared in advance and just waiting for now?
"I only have one request," Tang Tian said with a smile, "Take a shower before that."
Shen Boyun was shocked and didn’t reply for a long time.
Tang Tian cleared her throat and said:
"Ten minutes left, forget it if you don't want to."
With a whoosh, Shen Boyun stood up and rushed towards the bathroom at an astonishing speed.
It was also at this time that Tang Tian suddenly realized that there seemed to be a height difference between her and Shen Boyun.
The height difference is not only about the height, but also the difference in the body.
Even though Tang Tian had been exercising since the early days of the apocalypse, she was still able to be held in Shen Boyun's arms. Lying beneath him, she felt as if she were lying in a cluster of soft clouds, with the constant hot rain patting her skin...
Damn the poor shape.
After it was over, Tang Tian was actually still awake, but just as she knew, some parts of her body felt sore, so she could only stay in bed and complain in her heart.
God knows how someone who looks so serious and innocent could suddenly know so many tricks? Tang Tian felt that she could never look a police officer in the eye again. It must be just a job!
Sighing, she changed her position and lay down flat on her back, while the aroma of food gradually filled the air through the open door.
After a whole afternoon, it was already this time, and I was really hungry...
"Are you okay?"
Shen Boyun came to her with an energetic look, and this level of energy seemed incomparable to the previous hand-holding, hugging, and even kissing. It was as if a floodgate had been opened.
Tang Tian glanced at him and didn't answer.
Shen Boyun squatted down and stroked her cheek, smiling slightly.
"If you're hungry, you can eat first. The water's ready for a bath, or... should I give you a massage first?"
He said as he moved his hands down to his waist.
"No, thank you."
Tang Tian refused decisively. Now they were at odds with each other, one was dry wood and the other was raging. They probably wouldn't even be able to eat.
After all, he felt quite comfortable, and after the food conditions improved, Shen Boyun's disappeared abdominal muscles came back a little, and they felt quite exciting to touch.
Fortunately, Tan Tan was not here this time, but went to Tang Yi's place, otherwise she could imagine the scene of it scratching at the door pitifully.
Now that things have come to this, let’s just enjoy the boiled bath water and prepared meal.
…
Tang Tian later found time to go to the office building in the administrative district and told the front desk that she wanted to look for Yang Gan.
Yang Gan was the previous leader of the Changping base, and the Chang'an leader also had a leader, so now after the merger into the Changping base, the biggest ones are the two leaders, and ordinary people cannot easily see them.
But Tang Tian was no longer an ordinary person. At least she had a reputation among Yang Gan, and the other small leaders knew her, including the front desk staff who had been instructed.
So when facing Tang Tian, the front desk not only did not ignore her, but was very attentive and responded to her every request.
Unfortunately, Yang Gan was in a meeting, so she had to wait for a while.
Tang Tian rarely comes to see Yang Gan on her own initiative. Yang Gan was quite surprised when he heard the news and asked her to come to his office after the meeting.
After Tang Tian entered the office, she stated her purpose directly.
As expected, Yang Gan frowned after hearing this and clenched his fists involuntarily.
Tang Tian has been in the shelter for a long time. The shelter has grown to its current scale. He has seen everything she has done. She is indeed an excellent staff member.
When such a person took the initiative to ask to leave the armed team, Yang Gan's first reaction was that something bad had happened.
He was even afraid that she would leave the base and settle somewhere else, such as the central base with better conditions, so he took the initiative to ask Tang Tian to tell him her requirements, and he would definitely agree to them all.
No matter what, they refused to let me leave the armed forces.
Tang Tian had imagined this scene in advance. In fact, she had no intention of leaving the Ping'an Base, even though she still had a few admission tickets to the central base.
This is not only because Shen Boyun is here, but also because the conditions around him are the same no matter which base he goes to, so there is no need to move around.
Tang Tian glanced to the side and saw that there were not only the two of them in the room, but also people who looked like secretaries and staff.
Yang Gan saw that she had something to say, so he asked everyone else to leave.
But Tang Tian still didn't say anything, just glanced at the ceiling a few times.
Yang Gan sighed:
"Tang Tian, do you have anything to say? I'll have someone turn off the surveillance first."
"The main reason is that I have something secret I want to tell you, but no one else can know about it except the two of us."
Tang Tian's tone was mysterious, and even Yang Gan couldn't help but feel nervous for some reason, so he asked her to sit down.
This sounds like another matter.
"Commander Yang, I recently discovered... I have a new superpower!"
Yang Gan was shocked.
Some people have discussed the existence of people with dual abilities before, and people with dual abilities have appeared in the bases of some cities.
But Ping'an Base has not appeared yet, and the person in the end turned out to be Tang Tian. How could Yang Gan not be excited?
"Yes, what kind of superpower is it?" Yang Gan's voice trembled slightly.
"I recently discovered that my other ability has a small space, and every once in a while, a certain kind of material will appear in it, mostly food."
Tang Tian half-seriously explained that it was actually her food system. She didn't explain it too clearly, but she did get the point across: she had no shortage of supplies.
In fact, in Yang Gan's eyes, the Tang family has always been like this. Now that they have come to the base, they no longer have to worry about food and drink. Now that she has this special ability, she will have more supplies on hand.
No wonder she proposed to quit the armed forces and go into business. It seems more suitable now.
Seeing that Yang Gan's expression had changed to one of slight relief, but still a little conflicted, Tang Tian continued:
"Commander Yang, we're actually doing the same thing for the base, just in a different way. And with your help, the development of Ping An Base will definitely get better and better!"
Although Yang Gan was helpless, thinking that Tang Tian was still staying in the base, he finally had to agree.
After all, if the relationship becomes strained, it is not impossible that Tang Tian will leave the base in anger.
But this time when we met, I felt like something had changed about her...it seemed like something good had happened.
…
After Tang Tian left the office, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The reason she mentioned her food storage space was not entirely out of a sudden act of kindness, but because the place where she obtained the food was continuously producing food, and her warehouse was almost full.
The warehouse is not only used to store food, but also other necessities for future survival, so they must be consumed on a large scale, and there is no better place than the base.
What's more, Tang Tian's original intention was to hope that the base and even the official would get better and better. After these ingredients were delivered, there would be another batch arriving, so she would not lose out.
So Tang Tian finally left the armed team smoothly. When some members of the armed team found out, they were indeed reluctant to let her go, but that’s a story for later.
In order to prove what she said, Tang Tian first sent a truck of vegetables over, but she also made three rules with Yang Gan.
First, she cannot let others know about her "superpower"; second, she will go out to trade under the name of Ping'an Base; third, this "superpower" is not under her control, and she has no idea when the ingredients will appear. This must be made clear first.
Yang Gan was very satisfied to see the truck full of fresh vegetables. In addition, he also wanted Tang Tian to stay safely, so he naturally agreed to everything.
Tang Tian, feeling relaxed, immediately turned his attention to the central base where he had acquaintances.
There are also posts on the forum about the area where the central base is located. Because the central base is not large, once it suffers a serious disaster, it will start to lack supplies.
But on the contrary, there are more scientific and technological resources, medical resources, etc., so other bases in Chuncheng rely on mutual benefit to conduct transactions.
So Tang Tian drove his own car, took Tan Tan and went straight to the central base, where he met Li Feiyang first.
The Li family’s status in the central base is not low, and they are even more welcome to know that Tang Tian is an official.
Not only did Tang Tian successfully make a big order, she also secretly asked Li Feiyang to secretly collect gold and jade, and gave him a batch of supplies for this purpose. The latter nodded in agreement and said that he would take care of it.
It’s fun to spend money, and it’s fun to keep spending money, but before the system is fully upgraded, you still have to continue collecting valuables.
But in fact, her system is also at the maximum level, otherwise it would be impossible for her to have so many supplies left to hand in.
And after bringing the supplies traded from the central base for the first time, Yang Gan did not hesitate.
This is also an escort mission for the armed team. You must know that there may be various mutants along the way. Tang Tian can send them back safely by himself, and the cost-effectiveness is surprisingly high.
After that, Tang Tian not only traveled through the three bases in Chuncheng, but also extended his journey to the neighboring city.
She saw bases built against mountains, some entirely underground, and the furthest one even a complete island...
A rumor gradually spread in the forum.
It is rumored that there is a female businessman who travels around with a majestic big dog. She is said to be from a certain base, but no one has ever seen her true appearance.
The discussion thread was so popular that it reached over a hundred floors. People said all kinds of things about her identity, and some even said that she was actually a mutant with a mind.
Tang Tian: It’s totally off the mark.
But she is not on the road all the time. Whenever she finishes a transaction, she will go home and rest for a while.
This time she came back early, but it was also dusk. The setting sun dyed half the sky red. It seemed that it had been a long time since the mushroom rain.
I opened the door with my key and returned home. The fragrant smell of food hit me in the face. Tan Tan ran into the kitchen with his tongue sticking out.
"You guys are back?"
Shen Boyun first touched the dog's head, then looked up and saw Tang Tian with a smiling face, and asked curiously:
"What's wrong?"
Tang Tian, with his hands behind his back, suddenly took out an item and said with a smile:
"For you!"
Shen Boyun was surprised for a moment, it turned out to be a bouquet of roses.
God knows how long it has been since he last saw this kind of flower.
"Where did they get it from? Is there already a base that's started growing flowers?"
Shen Boyun took it carefully, and the tip of his nose also smelled the fresh floral fragrance.
Tang Tian smiled silently and took off her sunglasses. "Where would a base grow these now?" she asked. "Of course they were taken from the system's flower garden. After all, roses can be made into dishes."
And because it is obtained from the system, it withers more slowly than ordinary flowers.
She just wanted to give it to Shen Boyun, whom she hadn't seen for many days.
This night is as hot as this bouquet of roses, and the flowers on the bedside table also emit a light fragrance which is very appropriate for the occasion.
Tang Tian hugged the pillow sleepily, her eyelids drooping, while Shen Boyun gently pressed on her waist.
However, halfway through the massage, he stopped and walked quickly towards the balcony.
Just as Tang Tian was rubbing her eyes, she heard a ticking sound outside the window.
Her heart skipped a beat, and she didn't care about being sleepy anymore, she just put on a shirt.
This might be another mushroom rain. Fortunately, they waited and did not remove the protective cover of the balcony.
As soon as I reached the balcony, the alarm sounded again.
Both of them contacted their families and only let it go after confirming that everything was fine and giving them some instructions.
Fortunately, this time the fungus rain was not heavier than the last time, but mold still grew again in the places that had been cleaned with great difficulty.
Tang Tian had no choice but to suspend the transaction and stay at home, and made an extra batch of □□ and strong acid bottles for Shen Boyun, who was still serving in the armed team, which could deal with mold.
With the experience from last time, the number of patients with melasma has decreased, but those with special abilities who go out are still in a dangerous environment.
Even some people with special abilities can use the same special abilities after transforming into fungal corpses!
The danger of fungal corpses has also greatly increased.
Fortunately, Tang Tian still has dozens of supernatural powers, so it’s not a big problem.
This mushroom rain lasted only half a month, and finally the huge raindrops turned into misty rain threads in the air, and then stopped.
But this time, not only did the rain stop, everyone looked up at the sky at the same time, including Tang Tian, Tang Yi and Wei Mingxia.
The dark gray clouds that originally spanned the sky also disappeared, revealing the original azure sky, which was clear and blue.
Does this mean...the mushroom rain is completely over?
Shen Boyun rushed back, but first took off his protective suit outside and confirmed that there was no trace of mold on his body before entering the room and hugging Tang Tian tightly.
"Welcome back." Tang Tian said with a soft smile.
After monitoring, the official officially confirmed the end of the mushroom rain, and the base started a new round of restoration.
Moreover, before the next round of natural disasters comes, they must seize the time to continue to develop agriculture, industry and other aspects in order to make everyone live a better life.
As for business, Tang Tian is still traveling between cities and is very busy.
But every time she returned home, there was always someone waiting for her. In their cozy little home, they ate, slept, and chatted as if it were a normal day before the end of the world.
As time went by, the base gradually became brightly lit and bustling.
The indomitable and resilient humans eventually expanded the base and prospered again.
Is the end of the world over?
Tang Tian wasn't sure. Perhaps it had already ended quietly, or perhaps there would be another natural disaster in the future. But she believed that her life would continue to get better and better, until it reached complete peace and prosperity.
