Chapter 45
Sang Wenhao nodded.
Because it was so comfortable, he felt himself fall asleep quickly in the pool of warm water.
Fu Erdie was about the same, only lasting two minutes longer than Sang Wenhao. If he wanted to continue using his supernatural powers, the more exercise and recovery the better.
But his eyelids became heavier and heavier, and his supernatural powers seemed to flow out of inertia, shuttling back and forth naturally, allowing him to perform pushing and pulling exercises without Fu Erdie's control.
She told the potato sprouts, who had been sleeping for an afternoon after eating the zombies, to be alert to their surroundings and wake them up if any zombies, humans or mutant plants approached, and then she fell asleep.
Have a good night.
I don’t know if it’s because of their supernatural powers, but Fu Erdie and Sang Wenhao woke up at the same time.
The two entangled hands were still automatically operating their superpowers, and both of them had reached an extremely full state of superpowers, physical strength, and energy.
Fu Erdie looked into his eyes and couldn't help but lean her head over, finding a comfortable position to stay in bed for a while.
However, the next second, she suddenly felt something was wrong.
Box car, why is it swinging???
Sang Wenhao also noticed the problem, and the two of them sat up and looked outside.
It turned out that a layer of water had accumulated on the wasteland without people noticing when.
Judging from the visual depth of the water, it was half a meter, which would not drown anyone immediately, but the current was very fast, knocking the box truck back and forth.
The house box truck was very waterproof, so no water seeped in. But Fu Erdie was speechless. She and Sang Wenhao were sleeping so soundly that they just woke up now. And Potato was still stretching out its roots and leaves to play with water by the window, not thinking that this was a situation that needed to be reported to the police.
Fu Erdie: “…”
The box truck left the water and floated to where the farmer was yesterday. The farmer had already placed the large and small bags in a large and deep bathtub, and the clean water and potatoes that had been obtained yesterday were also in them.
He stepped into the water and pushed the bathtub with difficulty towards the county town.
Seeing a familiar metal box truck coming from afar, he quickly asked for help: "Friend! Friend, please help me! Can you help me get to the county town? As long as I go to the county town, it will be fine. I have a familiar car there, and I can run as soon as I get there! Please, help me!"
Fu Erdie nodded, signaling him to be patient.
She just came to give him a ride and ask about the situation.
She did not let him enter the car, but helped him go to the roof, put all his things on the roof, and then took him to the county town.
"Is there any reservoir or dam nearby? Or is it just a heavy rain that caused the water to rise and flood this area?"
Fu Erdie asked across the roof of the car.
The farmer said in a hoarse voice, "There is a reservoir. The water level is rising too fast. I guess there is something wrong with the reservoir. I thought that since I am so far from the river, the flood would never reach me. I didn't expect that I overestimated it... I should have gone to the base with them! I shouldn't have been lazy at a time like this! Now it's over. All the crops are gone. How can I still get to the base with such a flood?"
Fu Erdie couldn't say anything to comfort him. Her heart sank as she thought of her parents, whose fate was still unknown downstream.
The flow of supernatural powers increased, and the group soon arrived at the county town.
The county town is located at a higher elevation and has not been flooded yet. The farmer hesitated on the roof of the car: "My two friends, are you going to the base in City D to look for people? If you want to go, can you..."
"We are not going to City D. We are going downstream to look for other relatives." Fu Erdie apologized, put down the farmer's luggage, and flew away quickly after the farmer got off the car.
Their map had the route from Senyu Community to H City, but not the route from Xiangde Village to H City. So Fu Erdie and the others needed to return to Senyu Community and then head to H City from Senyu Community.
It rained heavily all night, stopped for a while in the morning, and started raining again when we were on our way.
Fortunately there was no thunder, otherwise they would not dare to fly.
With the experience of the past, they traveled quickly according to the map and their previous memories on the way back.
When I got to the provincial highway, I used the same trick to find an electric car, charge it and drive for a while, then when the road was congested, I used the van again to go up.
In this way, the journey that took me 12 hours to come here now only took me 6 hours to go back, and it was only two hours in the afternoon when I arrived at Senyu Community.
Along the way they made a surprising discovery: it was not just raining in Xiangde Village, Baochang County, but it was raining all along the way.
After meeting Cen Xiyang and others, Fu Erdie pulled Sang Wenhao and pushed and pulled quickly to restore his supernatural powers.
Zhang Dongxuan hurriedly cooked a big pot of millet porridge and fried a large pot of vegetables. Han Zhi helped by the side and quickly prepared a simple porridge, a vegetable and a soup.
It was inconvenient for Fu Erdie to eat while holding Sang Wenhao's hand, so she used a hand-in-hand posture, inhaling the wind while maintaining physical contact with Sang Wenhao to activate her supernatural powers.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
If he didn't know that now was not the right time, Cen Xiyang really wanted to complain about Fu Erdie's special ability.
She went to 16-3 and took out a large plastic bag. "Yesterday, Han Zhi and I went to search for supplies in Building No. 5. These are snacks that are not expired and can be eaten. You don't know how long it will take you to go to H City, and how long you will have to eat potatoes. Bringing these should help whet your appetite."
Fu Erdie thanked them, symbolically took out a few packets of pickled mustard tubers and spicy strips, and returned the remaining snacks: "These are enough. We will be back as soon as possible."
Perhaps because they opened their hearts, Fu Erdie and Sang Wenhao's pushing and pulling speeds were much faster, so the recovery time was also shorter.
After two hours of temporary rest, the 60% of the energy consumed by the frantic journey has been restored.
It is now four o'clock in the afternoon. They can still travel for another six hours and stop to rest around ten o'clock.
Unlike going to her grandmother's house where she could not walk at night, Fu Erdie's strategy to find her parents was to rush to the flooded area day and night. After reaching the front of the flood, she slowed down and called her parents' names on a loud speaker while rushing.
She bought a watch with a flashlight function for her parents last year.
Because she gave them to them, her parents always carried those two watches. Now, even if only one of them had a watch or a flashlight with power, they could flash it towards the sky after hearing the sound. With her and Sang Wenhao's supernatural vision, they could see the light of the flashlight even in the daytime.
As for the possible dangers on the road and the unnecessary troubles that the loudspeaker might cause, Fu Erdie was no longer in the mood to worry about them.
She just wanted to find her parents as quickly as possible.
City C is 1,500 kilometers away from City H. At their average speed of 10 kilometers per hour, they can only fly 12 hours a day for 120 kilometers. In other words, it will take them about 12 days to reach City H.
Fu Erdie calculated and felt that they would need to extend their travel time a little bit every day.
In a 24-hour day, he would first travel for seven hours, then rest for two hours to recover his supernatural powers, then travel for another seven hours, and finally sleep for the remaining eight hours to recover his supernatural powers again, and then continue traveling over and over again.
They can also speed up their daily journey, whether by speeding up their flights or finding opportunities to use their vehicles more often, which can shorten the entire journey time a lot.
Especially on the highway, once there is a section of road that is not congested and they find a suitable vehicle, they can run all the way and complete the 120 kilometers that is expected to be completed in a day in just one hour! Fu Erdie even had a crazy idea. If there is a section of road that is blocked, but the blockage is not long, then all the scrapped vehicles will be overturned, and the ones that look good will be put aside, and then a road will be opened. When the road is open, they will continue on the road.
