Chapter 242 The Wind Blows
Black holes are everywhere, echoing the gray sky in the distance.
The dividing line between gray and black is deep.
From the bottom of the deep black hole, there were whistling winds and gusts of cold air coming from time to time.
"I heard before that the ancient city A has turned into a big black hole, but I didn't expect it to be so serious. It looks like it is still spreading outward." Yuan Xiaoni looked at the dark black hole and felt cold all over.
Li Heng was also a little shocked.
He had been into a black hole and knew that there was magma, many mysterious gates, and huge abandoned spaceships inside.
Originally, I just thought this was a man-made underground storage base, but as the scope expanded, it felt more and more bizarre and terrifying.
The forest safety zone was directly moved to a dilapidated town fifty kilometers away from City A. The original trees and forests were all swallowed up by the black hole, and now it is a completely dilapidated town. The survivors worry every day whether there are enough supplies.
As soon as Li Heng and Yuan Xiaoni landed, they heard an explosion in a town not far away.
The survivors all ran out, "There are mutant dung beetles here, hurry up!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a huge black dung ball rolled out, crushing all the houses in the town, and an indescribable stench swept over.
Yuan Xiaoni's eyes widened unconsciously, frightened by such a scene.
The giant dung beetle also revealed its true face at this time.
It crawled out of the soil, blinking its big black eyes.
A group of survivors were running around frantically.
Black dung balls rolled on the ground, and the rain poured on them, stinking.
Li Heng and Yuan Xiaoni were both stunned for three seconds.
Then the two of them subconsciously followed the fleeing survivors and deviated from the direction of the rolling dung ball.
The mutated dung beetle had no intention of harming these people. It was concentrating on playing with its own dung balls. However, the surrounding houses were a mess and obviously uninhabitable.
"Oh my God, we've only moved in less than a week and this place is uninhabitable again. I still have a lot of quilts in here, and now they all stink..." Survivor A cursed.
"It's everyone's fault. I just repaired my house, and after just two days of free time, my home is gone again. We might as well disband the Linmu Safety Zone on the spot and go to other bases. I can't stand it anymore!" Survivor B cried and shouted, feeling extremely aggrieved.
"What else can we, the people with planting abilities, do besides planting trees? The soil is already polluted. Except in H City, there is no soil suitable for normal planting. This is going to kill us!" Survivor C was speechless and sobbed with his hands covering his face.
Yuan Xiaoni's face was full of complexity. He didn't expect that the survivors in this forest safety zone were even worse off than the slums in the west base.
At least in the slums, people have food, drink and shelter, so they don't have to sleep in the open air. Moreover, they are protected within the base and are not disturbed by these mutant animals.
"Why don't we go back? Xilin Base is pretty good too." Yuan Xiaoni whispered, "If you hide well, no one will find you."
Li Heng refused with a serious expression.
"Since it doesn't work here, we can go to Beiming Base. But the journey is long. Even if there is a strong wind, it will take two days to get there. Can you hold on?" Li Heng was determined not to go back.
In his mind, he now had a system that was like turning on a cheat, so he wouldn't get sick even if he got caught in the rain for three days and three nights.
cough…
The next second, I felt an itchy throat, a blocked nose, and caught a cold instantly.
Yuan Xiaoni looked worried, "I can hold on, can you?"
She is a person with healing abilities. Although she looks thin, her physical fitness is comparable to that of a big man.
"I can!" Li Heng flew with his men.
Everyone around looked as if they were looking at something unknown.
Gray raindrops swirl in the breeze.
The two of them were like plastic bags, floating in the air.
I don’t know how long he floated, but Li Heng’s special ability was exhausted.
The two landed in front of a small, abandoned hotel.
The outside of the hotel was eerie, with many black bloodstains on the walls.
As they walked into the hotel, they could hear the howling of the wind, tattered curtains flapping in front of the broken windows, a tattered zombie lying on the tattered sofa, and the broken wooden stairs were covered with dust and dried black blood.
This place is like a haunted house.
Combined with the dark, stormy night atmosphere, it's a little bit scary.
"Are we really going to stay here tonight?" Yuan Xiaoni found that the doors of all the rooms were rotten and broken, and the inside was a mess.
The water on the first floor was ten centimeters high, so we could only live on the second floor.
Aside from being able to shelter from the rain, it offered no benefit. Sitting on the mopped floor, Yuan Xiaoni took the crushed biscuits from his backpack and placed them in the cup of water boiling over the fire.
A weird cup of cookie mush.
A light milky aroma.
The two of them drank half and half and were quite satisfied.
At this time, there was a bustling sound outside the house, all of which were people who had escaped from the forest safety zone earlier.
This dilapidated hotel was the only habitable building nearby, and a group of people crowded in.
They all swallowed their saliva when they saw the two people making a fire and cooking biscuit paste on the second floor.
It has been more than three months since the end of the world, and biscuits have almost become extinct. Most of them did not bring any supplies when they left home. Now, when they smelled the fragrant biscuit paste, their eyes turned red.
"Young man and young lady, do you have any extra supplies? We can exchange them for water and crystal cores." A water-based mutant in the crowd whispered, swallowing his saliva as he spoke.
Yuan Xiaoni was worried that she didn't bring enough water with her when she went out.
So he took out two large, flattened, gray steamed buns from his backpack and said, "This is all I have. I made it this morning with wheat flour and cane sugar."
"Okay!" The water-type ability user took out two second-level water crystal cores, and filled up the several mineral water bottles handed over by Yuan Xiaoni. Then he put away the steamed bun with a look of cherishment.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Yuan Xiaoni’s bag was small and flat, and there wasn’t anything good in it. Without looking into it any further, they went upstairs to find an open space to make a fire and rest.
There is also a faint scent of cream biscuits in the air.
The stomachs of the group of big men began to protest, making rumbling sounds.
"Fuck, I can't stand it, I'm so hungry!"
"Hold on a bit longer. Tomorrow, when that mutant dung beetle leaves, we'll go back to the house and see if our supplies are still there."
"So what? It's all contaminated by dung balls, how can it be eaten? It's the leader's fault. The place he found was too rubbish. Who would have known that there was a dung beetle's nest underneath? Oh, damn."
Yuan Xiaoni huddled in the corner listening to their conversation. He carefully poured the boiling water in the small iron pot into a porcelain cup, then accurately poured one-third of the water into one of the mineral water bottles and handed it to Li Heng.
She is used to boiling the water she drinks so that she won't get sick easily.
Li Heng drank the boiling water in one breath.
Yuan Xiaoni had a look of admiration on her face. She was reluctant to drink the water, so she just poured a little into the bottle cap. After drinking it, she screwed the bottle cap shut and put the water baby back into her backpack.
Except for Li Heng, all the other survivors here cherish food and water.
