Xia Huoqu and Yan Xinian had been out so many times, but this was the first time they brought supplies to exchange, which felt very strange.

The four of them didn't bring much supplies, only 100 kilograms of rice and various ropes, belts and other miscellaneous items.

The truck drove forward all the way.

The road was already difficult to travel after the disaster, and after the last earthquake, the road is getting worse and worse. Not only are there weeds and vines on the road, but the road is also bumpy, and from time to time there are rocks and soil falling down and piling on the ground.

Only their trucks that have been modified by the base can barely pass on such a road.

Even so, the three people sitting in the car were still sore from the shaking and miserable.

Only Xia Maomao looked out of the car with curiosity, and he was not tired of looking all day.

Kong Zhi asked, "Is Yacheng far from our base?"

"Not far, but not close either." Xia Huoqu said, "Their base is relatively large, and the range of activities they need is also large. In the past, it took one or two days to drive from the base to their place. Now the road is blocked, and we have to take a detour to get there, which should take three or four days."

Kong Zhi asked, "Do you have a map?"

"Yes." Xia Huoqu took out a map from the utility box and gave it to him, "You can refer to it. The topography has changed a lot now, and the map may not be useful."

Yan Xinian was driving next to him, "It was useful before, but it may not be useful now. After this period of time, we have to ask their collection team to make another map."

Kong Zhi nodded.

There were too many debris on the road now, and they drove slowly. After driving for a day, they arrived at a small town.

Yan Xinian parked the car at the basketball court in the town and said, "This town is often visited by the search team. There are people coming and going here. It is no longer worth searching. The good thing is that it has been cleaned over and over again. There is no danger. Let's rest here."

Yan Xinian said, pushed the door and got out of the car.

Several people also got out to exercise.

There was a stove and dry food in the car. Xia Huoqu moved the stove down to cook noodles.

The smoke from the cooking rose. It was not dark yet, and the sky was dotted with sunset.

The basketball court was cleaned very cleanly, and there were basically no mutant plants. Just looking at this basketball court, no one would have thought that there was no one here.

Xia Huoqu cooked the noodles quickly, and everyone shared their meals and put away the stove. It was not yet dark.

It takes too long for the sky to get dark in the summer.

Kong Zhi looked at the sky and said, "I want to fly up and take a look."

Yan Xinian nodded, "Okay, it's a good opportunity to take a look at the road ahead. We'll discuss the route later and see how to go."

Kong Zhi agreed, jumped into the car, took off his clothes and prepared to transform.

Xia Maomao got on all fours and followed behind him.

Xia Huoqu pinched his brother's neck, picked up the cat, looked into the cat's eyes and said, "Don't mess around."

"Meow." Xia Maomao's voice was sweet and soft, and he wanted to go too.

Kong Zhi's voice came from the back of the truck, "Don't worry."

Xia Huoqu always trusted Kong Zhi, and when he spoke, he compromised, "You go early and come back early."

Kong Zhi nodded, jumped out of the truck, ran forward two steps, and turned into a giant golden eagle on the spot.

Xia Maomao jumped out of his brother's arms, ran down lightly, ran under the golden eagle's head, and looked up at the golden eagle.

The golden eagle lowered its head, picked up the whole cat, and ran forward a few steps, flapping its wings and flying.

As the golden eagle flew up, Xia Maomao's vision became much wider.

He lowered his head and looked intently at his brother and his former brother who were slowly getting smaller under his feet, at this town that had almost become a ruin, and at the vaguely existing road outside the town.

As they watched, there was a hint of sadness in Xia Maomao's emerald eyes.

If there hadn't been a disaster, dusk would have been the time for people to pack up and go home.

The town should now be a scene of thousands of lights and a bustling traffic.

Kong Zhi continued to flap his wings and fly upwards. They saw the road outside the town and the sea not far from the town.

Flying higher, they could vaguely see Nha Thanh.

Xia Maomao opened his eyes wide, trying to remember the road conditions ahead.

However, his eyesight was not good when he looked far away, and his eyes were almost popping out of their sockets. He still couldn't see clearly.

Kong Zhi didn't seem to have this worry.

He flew out along the road to Nha City. He flew for more than ten minutes and basically looked at the road he would take tomorrow before slowly flying back.

The sky is almost dark.

Xia Maomao was held in his mouth, blowing the cool breeze, and fell asleep.

When the giant golden eagle flew over the road, over the ruins, and over the river outside the town, Xia Maomao suddenly felt that something was wrong.

He sniffed hard - there seemed to be a fishy smell in the air?

No, it doesn't seem to have a fishy smell, but some other similar fishy smell, which is very similar to fish and should be edible.

"Meow?" The summer cat in its mouth issued a reminder in cat language.

The golden eagle looked down, not knowing what he was going to say, and continued flying towards the temporary base with him.

To some extent, Summer Cat's eyesight is not as good as Kong Zhi's, and his sense of smell is not as good as his brother's, but he always has a special intuition.

He feels that there are good things in the river, and when he flies over, he tries to stare down with cat eyes.

It is common sense that there must be fish in such a big river.

When there is no shortage of food, people generally do not set their sights on the river.

There is no place to gain leverage in the river, and except for a few beastmen who are adapted to water, it is actually very dangerous to go into the river.

No one knows what kind of mutant fish are hiding in the river, and how big those mutant fish are. If you are accidentally dragged in, it will be difficult to get your life back.

Kong Zhi flew to the temporary residence and put Summer Cat in his mouth.

Summer Cat used all four legs to quickly run to his brother, "Meow meow meow."

His brother listened carefully for a while, lowered his head and looked at him, and said, "I don't understand your cat language."

Summer Cat was almost dying of anxiety, and wanted to write on the basketball court with his front paws.

However, the ground below was cement, and his paws were worn out and he couldn't write a single word.

At this time, Kong Zhi had changed back to human form and went into the back of the car to put on his clothes.

Yan Xinian knocked on the wall of the car with his fingers and asked, "What did you see just now? Why are you so anxious?"

The car was quiet for two seconds. Kong Zhi seemed to think for a while before answering, "I didn't see anything special."

"That's strange." Yan Xinian asked, "Xiao Nong, did you find something again?"

Xia Maomao nodded frantically.

"It looks like there is something good." Yan Xinian asked, "I'll get you some paper and pen?"

What paper and pen?

Seeing that Kong Zhi had already come out of the back of the car, Xia Maomao couldn't wait to jump into the back of the car, changed back to human form, and pulled out a T-shirt and shorts from the luggage and put them on.

While putting on the harness, he stuck his head out of the car and anxiously retorted to Kong Zhi: "How come there is nothing special? The river! There is such a big river next to the town, there must be so many good things in it!"

Yan Xinian laughed: "There are not only good things in the river, but also big treasures."

Xia Lunong got anxious, put on her shorts and jumped down, "I'm not kidding, I feel there are good things in the river, there should be more than just fish, there should be something else."

"More than just fish?" Yan Xinian thought for a while, but really couldn't think of anything, "Besides fish, what else is there? Otherwise, let's take a flashlight and go over to take a look?"

Yan Xinian asked: "Aren't you tired after driving all day?"

"Why would we be so tired with such a low intensity of work? We can go for a walk for two hours, and then we can take turns to keep watch and sleep after we come back."

Xia Lunong nodded frantically, "Yeah. We'll know when we go, maybe we can collect something special."

Xia Huoqu and the other two all felt that the only special thing in the river was the fish, the only difference was the big fish and the small fish.

The big fish lived in deeper places, and it was not easy for them to catch the big fish since they had no boats or nets.

With Xia Lunong's insistence, everyone picked up a basket and headed for the river with flashlights.

Yan Xinian reminded, "There are more snakes at night, so everyone should watch your feet."

Xia Lunong turned back into a cat, squatted on his brother's shoulder, and responded from above, "Meow."

The river was outside the town, and they were not far from the river, only about two or three hundred meters away.

This distance was considered safe, so they did not drive. They just moved the rice and some important supplies to the cockpit, locked it, and set off.

When they arrived at the river, they heard a rustling sound from a long distance away, as if something was moving.

Everyone looked at each other in the light of the flashlight, but did not speak, and just walked forward tacitly.

After walking a few steps forward, they finally saw what the good thing Xia Lunong had sensed was, and they were all stunned.

The riverbank was full of crabs!

Big crabs as big as plates!

The crabs crawled around on the riverbank, with no alertness at all, and seemed to have no natural enemies.

The three people and the cat were all shocked by the scene in front of them.

They could never have imagined that there would be so many crabs beside this ordinary little river at this season!

These crabs didn't hide or evade, but walked slowly back and forth on the river bank with their claws raised, or simply stood still on the river bank, blowing white bubbles from their mouths.

With the help of the flashlight, it can be seen that the degree of mutation of these crabs is relatively small. Most of them just have an extra leg or an extra claw, and they look no different from ordinary crabs.

The biggest difference is that these crabs are bigger than the crabs before the disaster, much bigger! .

The king crabs before the disaster are nothing when placed in this group of crabs!

"Meow." Xia Maomao stared at the crabs and urged them in a low voice.

If his brother hadn't pinched the back of the cat's neck, he would have jumped to the ground.

Xia Huoqu didn't move.

"Meow." Xia Maomao urged anxiously again, swinging his tail back and forth, dangling around his brother's face.

Xia Huoqu reacted and whispered, "Be careful, don't get caught."

"Don't worry, my hands are not that clumsy." Yan Xinian said in a whisper, and gently stroked the cat's back with his hand, his eyes full of praise, "Xiao Nong, you are simply our lucky star."

"Meow!" Xia Maomao stepped on his brother's shoulders with his paws. Why is he saying all this? Hurry up!

The cat is so anxious!
