There were too many mutant creatures in Qingluo Bay.

Xia Lunong and his team spent more than two hours cleaning up and killed all the radical ones that were easy to kill.

The rest were driven away if possible.

The mutant animals were easy to deal with, but it was the first time Xia Lunong saw mutant plants running away.

Some of them lay on the ground like vines and snakes, and slid away quickly; some shrubs were pulled up completely, and with the help of their lush crowns, they were blown away by the wind.

The most exaggerated thing Xia Lunong had seen was a tree that jumped up and its roots popped out. All the roots were divided into two branches, which moved alternately, faster and more flexibly than human legs.

Xia Lunong had never thought that these mutant plants could be so exciting.

With mutant plants as a foundation, fish with wings, earthworms bigger than snakes, mutant hens that turned into balls and rolled away to escape were nothing.

The shock Xia Lunong received was so great that his cat-like face was in a daze and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Yan Xinian took the opportunity to rub his belly several times, with a mysterious smile on his face as if he was enjoying stroking a cat.

Seeing that Yan Xinian was rubbing so happily, Baniu wanted to rub it secretly, but Xia Huoqu glanced at him with a gloomy face and had to withdraw his hand depressedly.

Yan Xinian took advantage of this rare opportunity to rub it several times in a row.

He watched Xia Lunong grow up from wearing diapers to now, and he had no psychological pressure at all to rub it.

When Xia Lunong came to his senses, his belly was almost swollen from being rubbed. He immediately "meowed" and grabbed Yan Xinian who was holding him with one claw. He kicked his two hind legs and quickly jumped to his brother's side.

It was not enough when he got to his brother's side. He looked up at his brother with a pair of emerald eyes and complained loudly, "Meow meow meow!"

Xia Huoqu smiled, picked him up, and calmly changed the subject, "Cooking mutton soup tonight?"

When they were cleaning in the afternoon, they encountered a group of sheep.

Six of them were not so mutated, and their meat was edible. They could eat one tonight.

Liao Quannan and his team had peeled the sheepskins, but they had no time to deal with the sheepskins, sheep heads, and sheep entrails. Except for the sheep intestines, they put everything in a sealed bucket and took it back to the canteen tomorrow.

The offal from these sheep is enough for the whole base to have a bowl of mutton soup.

Xia Lunong hadn't eaten sheep heads since he woke up.

Hearing about mutton soup, he swallowed his saliva, and his cat face showed a greedy look, "Meow."

This meant he agreed. His brother curled his lips and hugged him, "Let's walk around the village and see if there are any leeks, scallions and other condiments."

The mutton head soup was cooked, and the meat inside was taken out. It was boiled mutton, which was just right to eat with dipping sauce.

Xia Lunong looked down at his four short legs. If he could turn into a human form, he could process the meat in the mutton soup a little bit, and it could be turned into hand-shredded mutton, braised mutton, braised mutton and many other dishes.

Oh, what a pity.

Xia Huoqu was the main force in cleaning up the mutant plants and animals in the afternoon, and now he still has some spare time, so everyone is not too worried about his safety.

Baniu waved and said, "Deputy Captain Xia, please come back quickly, the mutton soup is almost ready."

Xia Huoqu nodded slightly.

Yan Xinian stood up and stretched, "I'll go for a walk too. Xiao Nong has a keen sense of smell and is lucky, maybe we can find something."

Baniu said casually, "We've swept along the paths so many times, what else can we find besides some pots, bowls, pans, and other tools?"

"Who knows?"

Liao Quannan also said, "If there is food, we should have found it while we are sweeping back and forth, so let's come back early."

Yan Xinian smiled and waved his hand, "You guys continue to cook the mutton, and we will come back when it's cooked. This village is not big, so if you really can't, you can shout and we can hear you."

Seeing that they were deliberately searching around, Cong Han, who liked reading, stood up and said, "I'll go too."

Luo Congqin stood up and followed them silently, meaning that he wanted to go too.

Ba Niu didn't expect that several people would go in a blink of an eye, and said depressedly: "Only me and Lao Liao will be left as partners?"

Liao Quannan smiled and said nothing.

Ba Niu was unwilling to do it, and packed up his things and said anxiously: "No, if you want to go,

we should go together." Yan Xinian said: "Let's just walk."

"Walking is not okay, we are a group, one less is not a group." Ba Niu took out two garlics and a green onion from the cloth bag, and smiled and approached Xia Lunong, "Aren't you just looking for seasoning? If you don't go, Xiao Nong will help you to give birth a little bit, how about it?"

Xia Lunong didn't expect the topic to turn to herself, and her eyes widened.

Ba Niu approached him and urged, "Give it a try, Xiao Nong, didn't you come out this time to practice your superpowers? When it comes to superpowers, practice makes perfect."

Xia Lunong looked at his brother.

His brother had told him not to show off his abilities too much in front of outsiders.

Xia Lunong was not sure if this situation counted as showing off his abilities in front of outsiders.

Liao Quannan sensed Xia Lunong's embarrassment and complained to Ba Niu, "None of us has abilities, you know nothing, and practice makes perfect, what if you overuse it?"

Ba Niu threw the scallions and garlic in his hand, caught them with both hands, stared at Xia Lunong and smiled, "Scallions and garlic are the two easiest plants to grow, how can there be any problems?"

Xia Lunong was still hesitant, and his cat paws were grabbing his brother's sleeves.

His brother lowered his head and looked at him, and said lightly, "Then give it a try."

As he said that, his brother put him on the ground and gently pushed his leg, signaling him to go.

Xia Lunong raised her right front paw, hooked her pad inward, and paused for a few seconds, but still walked towards Baniu.

Yan Xinian took the two garlic cloves from Baniu, peeled off the garlic cloves and skins, put them in a bowl, poured in clean water, waved his hand, and said lightly: "Xiao Nong, come to me, try the garlic first, garlic sprouts should be easier to induce labor."

Xia Lunong usually liked to nudge him when Yan Xinian rubbed her belly, but in this case, she felt particularly safe seeing him.

The kitten took turns using its four paws, ran two quick steps, and ran in front of Yan Xinian.

Yan Xinian squatted on the ground, put the bowl on the ground, gently rubbed the cat's head, and touched the cat's back all the way to the lower back, and said softly: "Try it, forget it if it doesn't work."

Xia Lunong knew he could do it, but there were only thirteen cloves from two heads of garlic.

How could it not work?

The kitten closed his eyes and stood by the bowl.

Garlic sprouts can grow well as long as there is water, and the garlic cloves can provide all the nutrients.

Xia Lunong could almost imagine the garlic cloves drinking water with satisfaction.

After drinking enough water, the garlic sprouts accumulated enough strength to push upwards, break free from the restraints of the garlic cloves, and try to stick their heads out to see this strange world.

The garlic sprouts grew longer and taller.

Xia Lunong closed his eyes, not knowing that the growth rate of garlic sprouts in reality was the same as he imagined.

Compared to tomatoes and peppers, which are relatively large and not easy to see growing, garlic sprouts grow really fast. They emerge little by little, like smoke, and grow more than ten centimeters in the blink of an eye.

These garlic sprouts that have never seen the sun are tender yellow in color, with relatively thick leaves and a strong garlic flavor.

Xia Lunong, who was so close and had a keen sense of smell, couldn't help but sneeze.

He sneezed, and as soon as he was distracted, the garlic sprouts were over.

Yan Xinian rubbed the cat's head, held the kitten's back and front paws, and put him back in the hands of Xia Huoqu next to him. He bent down and pulled up all the garlic sprouts to show them to Ba Niu. "How is it?"

Ba Niu said embarrassedly, "Very good, Xiao Nong is really amazing."

"I don't need people who doubt me." Yan Xinian said calmly, "Leave the management committee after you go back."

Ba Niu's expression changed suddenly, "Captain Yan, I am, I am..."

Yan Xinian raised his hand to stop him from saying the next words, "Your mentality is already unbalanced. Even if Xiao Nong is not here, you will question the second and third person in the future. This mentality is not suitable for teamwork. You will drag yourself or your teammates down." Ba

Niu did not expect that the consequences of this small doubt were so serious. His face changed again and again, and finally said nothing.

Others were even more angry and dared not speak out. They silently stood aside and did not say anything.

Xia Lunong had never thought that his brother Yan Xinian had such a side. He shrank his body, a little scared.

Xia Huoqu calmly touched the smooth fur on his back and said nothing.

Among all the people present, only Liao Quannan looked at this and that, and said to Yan Xinian with a stiff upper lip: "Captain, Baniu is just a little talkative. That's his personality. Please give him one more chance."

Baniu kept silent, not daring to look at the faces of the Xia brothers.

Liao Quannan tried to mediate, but to no avail.

No one else present said anything, not even Xia Lunong, who was the most impatient and soft-hearted.

Yan Xinian and Xia Huoqu led people out of the sea of ​​​​corpses and fire, and created a small base from scratch. They were not soft characters.

It's just that Xia Huoqu gradually withdrew from the core, and Yan Xinian was not as tense as before. Sometimes he could even joke with his subordinates, giving people some illusions.

After the two of them restrained their jokes today, the people present knew that Yan Xinian was still the same Yan Xinian, and Xia Huoqu was still the same Xia Huoqu.

Even because Xia Lunong woke up, Xia Huoqu wanted to protect his brother, so he became more difficult to deal with than before.

The mutton soup was soon stewed.

The tender yellow garlic sprouts were also cut and mixed with chili sauce and soy sauce. The seasoning was so fragrant that it almost made people drool.

But no one was in the mood to eat tonight.

The people present suddenly realized that the small, soft cat in the middle, who sometimes couldn't even walk steadily, had become a variable in the base.

No matter how soft this kitten is, with Yan Xinian and Xia Huoqu blocking him from the outside, he has the power to influence the development of the entire base.

The two of them really seem to want to change the entire base for this kitten, at least Xia Huoqu seems to have the intention.

Their small base, from the moment Xia Lunong woke up, the trajectory may have changed.
