Chapter 238 drone
On the way back to his own community with a rich harvest, this Wei Xuan can see the figures of zombies in T city looking for all kinds of pots and pans to move to the roofs of various buildings, each of them occupying a place , and placed the containers they found neatly.
The building area of T City is not small, but correspondingly, the number of people who became zombies in T City in the early days of the end of the world is also large, logically speaking, everyone still does not have enough places to allocate these places. But with the battles between humans and zombies one after another, the zombies are also dying one after another, and now it is enough to allocate these places for the remaining zombies.
Wei Xuan watched and sighed as he walked. These zombies are really strong in action. Of course, this has a lot to do with the fact that they usually don’t have any entertainment activities. Otherwise, they are too busy every day to do these things. Time may not be so positive… Well, no, it’s related to the issue of having enough food. Even people who are busy every day will try to spare time to tinker with related things, right?
With empathy for fellow foodies in his heart, Wei Xuan walked back to his own community in relief, and the zombie brothers behind him who carried pots and pans along the way also received a warm welcome—naturally, the ones who came to welcome them were The zombies who also lived in the community, the left-behind zombies came out very actively to help get things and put them in the building designated by Wei Xuan.
Randomly stopped a zombie jumping in front of him, Wei Xuan casually asked it: “What’s going on in the community these days? Are there any outsiders… zombies from outside?”
The zombie shook his head: “No, no, fight out, fight out…”
Wei Xuan: …
It should mean that there are no foreign ones, and if there are, just type them out, right?
After sorting out his emotions a little bit, Wei Xuan nodded to the zombie to indicate to him what he wanted to do, and took Du Hang’s hand and walked towards the building where the two lived. The time he went out this time was not short, and he would have to stay at home for a few days after returning home. Anyway, he didn’t have anything else to be busy with right now.
While walking, Wei Xuan suddenly felt something shaking in the corner of his eyes, turned his head, Wei Xuan raised his eyebrows in surprise after seeing the thing clearly: “Huh? Sprout?”
Earlier, not long after the end of the world, Wei Xuan planted potatoes and carrots in the open space of this community. Later, after he cultivated all kinds of Jincancan, he also planted some of these plants in the community one after another. Later, when he was asleep, Du Hang took the lead and cooperated with a group of zombie brothers to plant almost all the seeds he had collected into all the places with land in the community.
At this time, what he saw should be the crops that barely survived the catastrophe and grew tenaciously after overwintering?
With a tinge of joy in his heart, Wei Xuan quickly stepped forward two steps, and carefully inspected the tender and delicate plant bud that just came out not long ago.
“This…why doesn’t it look like a potato and carrot sprout?” This plant has been growing for a short time, and it may have broken the ground when Wei Xuan left the community, but it was too small at that time and did not cause any damage. Wei Xuan’s attention. But now, this plant that has grown some leaves doesn’t look like potato or carrot leaves?
Wei Xuan frowned and pondered. The plants in front of him were neither the potatoes and carrots he was very familiar with, nor those golden seedlings. Could it be… the sprouts of some unknown plant planted by Du Hang and the others last year?
This possibility is not impossible. After all, he has never tried planting those seeds directly in the soil before, so he can’t confirm whether they will germinate when they are not specially watered with strange snow and snow water… Besides, didn’t they just planted it once before? Is it a strange snow? These seeds were planted long before that, probably because of the inadvertent watering of those strange snow and snow water, so they were stimulated when the weather was just right in spring this year?
With the answer in his heart, Wei Xuan’s mood obviously improved several times. After he got up, he hurriedly wandered around in the community. Not long after, he found some plants that had sprouted out of the soil.
Some of these plants were clearly potatoes, carrots, and some were indeed crops not yet recognizable. There are also two fruit trees that have been planted in hydroponic machines before and have been transplanted with tender green leaves.
These fruit tree saplings were transplanted earlier by Wei Xuan. Of course, the reason for the transplantation is that the planting machine is not so big and cannot accommodate the growing and taller fruit trees. Now it seems that they have really survived smoothly!
With some excitement in his heart, Wei Xuan straightened up and looked around his own community. Although there are not many seedlings growing at present, there are only a few, and it may be more and more prosperous in the future.
Again, although Wei Xuan doesn’t have to worry about food now, if he can grow a staple food that tastes better and can replace rice and white noodles before, he will naturally have no opinion but is happy to see the success.
The fresh green leaves put Wei Xuan in a good mood after returning home, so he decided to cook something delicious to reward himself who has been working hard and going out for several days.
Lamb and chicken are served on tables that have been relocated outdoors, with a host of seasonings. There was a charcoal fire oven next to the table, Wei Xuan lit the charcoal fire and began to wear mutton skewers and chicken skewers.
Bursts of charcoal-grilled smoke rise, bringing bursts of burnt aroma, which makes people move their index fingers.
The number of zombies wandering around in the community is much less than before. Since they have a house to live in, many zombies have awakened the attributes of a house. If Wei Xuan didn’t discover this problem, he asked them to come out and wander around at least once a day. And if it is necessary to monitor the situation in the community in turn, many zombies will stop going out once they enter the door of the room, just like in winter.
The various containers that were brought back have been put back, Wei Xuan has no time for the time being, let alone the mood to replace the pots and jars at home that are specially used to dry snowflakes, and began his happy leisurely vacation time.
————————
In the already depressed world, the yellow sand is swept by the spring breeze, blowing on people’s bodies and making rustling sounds.
The people living in the base seldom go out at this time, although most of them have started the new year’s spring plowing – planting potatoes and radishes, but almost all the bases have started to decline in unison.
The cause was the clean-up work carried out in many bases last winter. Many people are reluctant to go out even if they are in the base after winter. Anyway, many people have already harvested their own vegetable crops before winter. In winter, they can go out and grab two handfuls of snow at most. Bring out a subsistence meal.
So, when the weather got warmer and I had to go out to tidy up the small piece of land that I could cultivate, I was surprised to find out—why are there only so few people left in the base?
Those who went out late inquired about the news from those who came out early to hang out, and only then learned that since the door-to-door inspection organized by the base in the middle of winter, it is said that many people were arrested and never came back.
Some people rumored that the base secretly killed these people in order to save food. Some people rumored that these people were monsters that had turned into zombies and hid in the base to eat people. Some people said that these captured people became human experiments. s material…
There was a lot of discussion in the base for a while, and people’s hearts fluttered. Then, several small bases once again broke out from internal conflicts and completely disintegrated. Even in large bases, there are some people who either leave or find a temporary shelter outside when they are out on missions. At the same time, some of the people who went out to collect supplies accidentally encountered people who were expelled from the base in winter…
Some private news came back, whether true or false, what happened in winter was quietly spread again at the bottom of the base.
—————
In City T, in the top room of the high-rise base, members of the base were sitting or standing in front of a side window, pointing outside.
“Tell me, what are those zombies doing?”
“…Catch the water? By the way, are those really zombies?”
What they were looking at was the roofs of the streets next to the community. At this time, the roofs of the shops and houses were already occupied by pots and pots of various colors, and there were still some zombies on the streets. Walk around holding or holding the container you just found.
“That’s right, it’s obvious that a container needs to be placed on the roof to catch water! But why do zombies need water? Drink??” After one person finished speaking, he subconsciously raised his hand and scratched the top of his head.
A woman in her forties suddenly laughed: “Don’t you want to take a bath with water? It’s been so long since I’ve seen the end of the world. I guess they haven’t even taken a bath, have they?”
“…It is necessary to wash, but not all zombies have to take a bath?”
“I know, I know!” An eleven or twelve-year-old child jumped by the window, pointing below, “They dug a hole and dug themselves too dirty! That’s why they want to take a bath!”
The adults in the room couldn’t help laughing, and one of them said with a smile: “It’s possible.”
“But why did they dig the hole before?” Another person couldn’t help muttering when he thought of the movement outside when it snowed.
The zombies nearby seem to be having a convulsion recently, and they often do some inexplicable things. This is not only true of the zombies wandering around on the streets, but also of those former companions who were released from their bases, which made them feel even more weird.
“What is that? Is it a bird?” Suddenly, a little girl standing in front of the balcony window in the opposite direction yelled, pointing to the sky outside.
The people in the room hurried to the balcony: “It’s spring, it should be those strange birds flying here again?”
“There is meat to eat, there is meat to eat!”
“Huh? Why is it so small?”
“That bird can’t flap its wings!”
“…No! That’s a drone!”
