Days without sunshine and days when you can’t go out can’t trouble Wei Xuan. Anyway, all his tasks have been completed, and now he only needs to spend some time tinkering with the things at home, writing and drawing on the map to find possible crops A place for the seeds is fine.
Therefore, in the past two days, while eating the rations that have been stored at home, while packing his things, while blowing a small cool breeze, he can also rely on Du Hang, the human-shaped air conditioner for the takeout, so that his small life should not be too comfortable.
When I woke up on the third morning, the sky outside was clear. The torrential rain that had fallen for two consecutive days in T City had finally stopped completely. It can be predicted that the weather today should be good—solar panels finally have a role to play!
Standing in front of the window, Wei Xuan took a deep breath with emotion. What entered his nostrils was the smell of fresh air after the rain washed away. Unfortunately, there was no more grass and plant fragrance to smell.
“Huh? Isn’t that… your dad?” Wei Xuan just lowered his head, but found a familiar one among the zombies wandering around in the community.
There’s no way, Dad Du’s belly, the bone stick in his hand… It’s impossible for him not to recognize this shape even if he is killed!
Is this the case of a horse? Wasn’t the old man brought into the room by himself to recuperate? How could it suddenly shake out? ?
In fact, if it were other zombies, it would be really difficult to recognize Wei Xuan in the zombie guards mixed in the community at a glance, but Du’s father had a special body shape and special equipment in his hands. Just now, Wei Xuan just looked at it a little bit more familiarly after seeing its size, and then found the remains of Du Ma in its hand… It was cleaned and sterilized by him himself, can he not recognize it? ?
Pulling Du Hang and hurried downstairs, Wei Xuan went straight to Du’s father’s position. The uncle zombie was in a mess again (the new clothes were washed away by the rain), and he was outside with blank eyes. It’s dangling in the street.
“…Why are you strolling out again?” Wei Xuan was very helpless, seeing the face that he had wiped clean with his own hands when he came back the day before yesterday, and the hands that had been cleaned became so embarrassed now, he was really heartbroken.
The zombie uncle still turned around with a blank expression on his face.
“Hey…It’s not impossible to wander around outside, but it’s relatively safe in the room…Let’s go, let’s go back to the house.” Zombies are not human, and they won’t become pale and sick if they don’t see the sun all year round. Wei Xuan was more worried that if something unexpected happened outside, it would be a trivial matter to lure this uncle and other zombies out and run away without a trace, but it would be a major matter if he really died completely under the guns of humans. So he would rather keep this guy in the house.
Pulling the uncle into the room, Wei Xuan checked and found that he probably didn’t lock the door after going out, which caused the uncle to wander out by himself, and he was not as conscious as the two on the top floor, so he When wandering to the door, he accidentally knocked open the door, and just wandered out by himself.
So Wei Xuan helped his father-in-law helplessly again… Ah no, calling him father-in-law makes him more dominant! In short, I helped Dad Du wipe his face and hands again, but this time he didn’t help him change his clothes – the clothes were basically half dry, so it didn’t make any difference whether to change them or not. Then he took Du Hang out again, locked the door, and carefully observed the surrounding sky to confirm that there were no strange things flying in the sky, so he went to the place where potatoes and carrots were grown to check the conditions of the crops.
The crops in the field are amazing. Although many of them are still submerged in the water after experiencing the torrential rain, they seem to be lush and unaffected at all, and the water droplets on the leaves facing the sun are crystal clear.
Wei Xuan walked around a few vegetable fields to confirm that they were in good condition, and many of them were clearly ready to be harvested. He nodded with satisfaction, and then turned his head to look at the vegetables left by the field with some doubts. Zombies wandering around, blocked by debris outside the open space.
Plants mutate, but no one knows how. Is it the plant mutation caused by the zombie virus? Or is it caused by the snow? Or is it caused by other reasons?
Perhaps the existing scientists in the base can explain this problem, but ordinary people like Wei Xuan, no matter in the past life or the present life, may not be able to know the specific reason.
But in any case, the rain will wash the ground, the ground and the zombies wandering around must have zombie virus. If the mutation of the plants is caused by the zombies, why are there no potatoes and carrots in the several vegetable gardens in the community? What about the one that mutated again?
Is the content of zombie virus not high enough? Or are these zombies at home very clean? There is no zombie virus in the community and zombies?
But he didn’t see secondary mutations in the places where the potatoes and carrots he planted outside.
Or, just because these crops have already experienced one mutation, there will be no second mutation?
Wei Xuan can’t explain these questions now, let alone find the answers. The only thing he can be sure of is that these crops will definitely be edible once they are mature!
With doubts in mind, after wandering around in his own community to confirm the situation, Wei Xuan took Du Hang back to the building where they lived again, and studied the map again.
On the third day after the heavy rain, although there was still a lot of stagnant water outside, Wei Xuan, who had dealt with the collected rainwater on the roof, was still carrying a backpack and wearing black or gray outfits from top to bottom, and took Du Hang with him. Walked out of the gate of his own community.
There are still a lot of processed potato pieces in his backpack and in the bag in his hand. These are not dug out from the ground after the rain stopped, but dug out by the way when he went out to collect things and rested at home. , They have all germinated by now, so he just cut them up, cut them up, took them out this time, and planted one along the way.
Outside, especially around the community, potatoes and carrots have been planted in many places, but there are still many places where they can be planted. He happened to take a look at this time when he was out looking for seeds.
Wei Xuan was not sure where there must be seeds of vegetable crops, so he had to walk around looking for them.
After leaving the community, there is such a flower shop on the horizontal street. The flower shop is a shop at the bottom of a six-storey slab building with a small area. At this time, the fresh flowers inside have long since dried up and rotted, and none of them are still alive. These days, not to mention fresh flowers, even the bonsai flowers before the end of the world are completely withered and ruined by the rampant virus of the end of the world.
Seeing the flower shop defender Xuan, he dragged Du Hang into it with bright eyes, and after searching all the way, let alone really have it!
However, holding the several seeds he found, and looking at the different types of seeds left in a certain cabinet of the flower shop, Wei Xuan had the urge to scream to the sky and cry bitterly—”All are flower seeds…”
But isn’t a flower shop just a shop that sells flowers? If you don’t sell flower seeds, can you buy rice seeds here?
Although he already had the mentality that even if he came to look for it, he might not be able to find it, but when he saw these things with his own eyes, Wei Xuan still felt an inexplicable sense of loss in his heart—this was worse than when he turned around and found half a bag of seeds. People feel angry. When I opened the cabinet, I found a bunch of small bags containing seeds, but after a closer look, it turned out that they were all flower seeds! How does this make him not lost?
Wei Xuan sighed softly, picked a generation of each kind of seeds and put them in the bag. Although these things are all flowers, what if the fruits produced by the mutated flowers are edible instead? Now is the end of the world! Everything is possible!
After collecting the seeds, Wei Xuan dragged his own zombies around the streets again, and planted potatoes in some suitable places in his spare time. But after going out today, he ran several streets in one breath and went to three flower shops, but he couldn’t find half a bag of seeds that were related to edible crops.
Wei Xuan, who didn’t get anything on the first day, wandered out of his community on the second day, heading in another direction. His small notebook records that there are several large and small fruit and vegetable supermarkets and large supermarkets walking down this block. He has already been to those fruit and vegetable supermarkets in the early days of the end of the world, but at that time his main goals were all on those. On the perishable vegetables and fruits, I have never noticed whether there are seeds in them.
Although I know that there is little hope, but I always have to stop by the way to find out if there is any?
Therefore, Wei Xuan, who was very addicted to playing zombies, wobbled all the way towards the target direction, looking at the various shops on the left and right streets along the way, and also took a look at the sky from time to time to see if there was anything unusual.
The two of them wandered around like this one after the other, and planted potatoes along the established route. As a result, they encountered four fruit and vegetable supermarkets and two flower shops on the road, and they still had no harvest at all. Finally, they came to the entrance of a large supermarket.
Looking up at the supermarket, the earthquake caused some breaks in the main building here, but the overall building is still very strong. At this time, Wei Xuan only hoped that his target would not be soaked by the rain. As for other things, he was not interested in collecting them for the time being. When he was wandering around the fruit and vegetable supermarket, he found a lot of various seasonings and spices. . Those things are all packaged and placed in those shops now, and Wei Xuan plans to pick up some supplements for the family on the way back.
After confirming that there was nothing nearby, Wei Xuan hurriedly dragged Du Hang into the gate of the supermarket, and immediately rushed to the second floor after entering the door—he vaguely remembered seeing a flower counter on the second floor of a large supermarket.
The bustling supermarket in the past has long been in disarray at this time. There are traces of flooding in many places in the supermarket, and an indescribable smell emanates from it, which makes people feel dizzy.
The building without lighting facilities looks gloomy everywhere, but fortunately, due to the earthquake, many places on the roof of the second floor of the supermarket were damaged, and the sunlight came in from those places, making it look bright.
