Chapter 35 - mutant plants

Looking at the somewhat different high-rise residential area, Wei Xuan couldn’t help sighing again, the viability of human beings is indeed very strong! In the difficult situation of the last days, they were able to use this method to avoid the zombie attack from the ground and open up a living place in the sky.

Regardless of the number of survivors in that high-rise, connecting so many buildings together and finding ways to produce some easy-to-sow crops should allow them to survive there.

In some respects, their survival mode may be safer than those survivor bases—as long as there are enough earth-type supernatural beings among them, they can completely seal the lower floors and reinforce them. And if the stairs were interrupted, even a very powerful zombie would not be able to collapse those buildings in a short while and go in to catch people and eat them.

“Let’s go, let’s go home.” Wei Xuan turned around after confirming the general situation of the surrounding area, and pulled Du Hang to walk towards the direction of his own community. Now he can roughly determine the place closest to his home where there may be survivors living for a long time. In the future, as long as he bypasses these places, he can continue to survive relatively peacefully. The only thing he needs to worry about now is those survivors who may enter the city from outside bases to find supplies, accidentally enter their own community, and Or the surviving supernatural beings in the city accidentally ran to their homes… Of course, besides humans, there are also mutant zombies who may cause him trouble.

But there is no good way to think about these things once and for all. You can only take a step and look back, and then slowly improve the fortifications of your own area.

This time going out allowed Wei Xuan to confirm the situation in T and near his home again.

What can be determined now is that there are at least two survivor bases around the community where he is located. Their scope of action will not be too large, and there will not be much overlap with their own daily scope of action.

In the last days, if people in those bases outside the urban area want to go out and enter the urban area, most of them will choose to act during the day. This is because the vision during the day is clearer, there are too many variables in the urban area at night, and people The result of a cultured biological clock.

But in the city in the last days… Wei Xuan is not quite sure about their behavior patterns.

Although you can see farther away during the day, you can easily find out whether there are zombies hidden in the nearby debris. But people who really live in the post-apocalyptic city can find out over time that the zombies in the city are different from those outside the city, and many of them will lie on the ground and sleep soundly at night!

Wei Xuan doesn’t know if others have noticed this, but he often chooses to go out in the middle of the night in the early days of the end of the world because he wants to hide his eyes and ears. Other survivors in the city should be able to notice this as long as they are bold and careful-the zombies are not as noisy and active at night as they are during the day. When the moonlight is just right outside, just stand at your window and look outside to find the phenomenon of zombies sleeping.

Therefore, although humans may not be able to see the surrounding situation clearly when going out at night, zombies will also be more sluggish than during the day. At night, the sight of the zombies will also be affected to a certain extent. Therefore, it is really uncertain when the survivors in those cities will go out to find supplies.

Thinking about it differently, Wei Xuan felt that if he didn’t have this weird ability and was without water or food, if he wanted to go out to find food and drink in the apocalypse, when would he choose to go out? After thinking about it, he still felt that it was more likely to go out in the evening or just before dawn, followed by late night, but after all, it was too dark in the late night, and it was not easy to use lighting facilities when going out—it might cause zombies their attention. Daytime is the worst option, especially in the middle of summer.

After determining the time when other survivors in the city are likely to be active, Wei Xuan doesn’t have to worry too much about meeting those people as long as he goes the other way. After all, he always disguises himself as a zombie when he goes out. What should I do if I am mistakenly injured when I meet a living person?

But it is even more impossible for him to really stay at home and not go out for this reason. Only by going out more and checking out the situation outside can he judge more specifically the area and scope of other survivors’ activities, as well as those people. Will you accidentally run to your stronghold?

More importantly, he will continue to sow potatoes in the city!

Although the current living environment is very good, there are many variables in the last days. In case of an accident that prevents myself and Du Hang from living here, if the situation is so urgent that I can’t take anything with me, the city At that time, if there were potatoes and carrots that he planted earlier everywhere, at least he would not be starved to death after leaving here!

Only when there are crops that can be harvested everywhere growing outside, can he find new vitality.

The potatoes in the community are planted one after another at intervals of a certain period of time, so once some potatoes start to mature, the subsequent potatoes will almost grow up and be ready to be harvested soon.

After Wei Xuan finished processing the sprouts from the previous wave of potatoes, the community ushered in a new wave of potato harvest.

I happily deal with these fresh potatoes, and put the ones that need to be left to germinate in the storage room. By the way, tidy up the other rooms in the community one by one, and take the garbage out of the community and throw it to the garbage mountain. Life is so busy that people feel like time flies by. When Wei Xuan found that most of the houses in the community had been collected and sorted out, it was already time to go out and plant potato sprouts.

Having had the experience of last time, this time he chose to plant this thing all the way south, to a place a little farther away, and planned to let potatoes bloom everywhere in T City, forming a beautiful city where you can eat wherever you go . The difference this time is that he also brought some carrot seeds with him, and he plans to sprinkle some along the way to see if they can grow into a climate here.

What makes Wei Xuan feel a little regretful is that other people in the previous life were in the base. Although it is also heard that there are other crops that can grow and provide some food for humans in the last days, it is a pity that because potatoes have the largest output and carrots have the largest output. It happens to be able to improve people’s nutrition. The main food provided to ordinary people in the base is only these two things, except for some food rescued in the early days of the end of the world.

More crops that can grow in the apocalypse have not been spread in the base at least, and Wei Xuan has only heard that there are some kinds of fruits that can grow in the apocalypse in the base, which are specially eaten by high-level officials and the military. of. Because the output of those crops and fruits is limited, survivors like them have no place to exchange them. Otherwise, if he can know what those things are, he can try to plant one in the post-apocalyptic world after rebirth.

And now, he can only temporarily plant more potatoes and carrots. If there are no withered or mutated plants still growing in the city after the spring of next year, he can pay more attention at that time, and maybe he can find other plants. Food sources – even improving the diet with those things is good.

Crossing the streets where the ground was upturned and zombies were rampant, Wei Xuan kept on his way while recording the conditions of the streets he had never been to. However, because of the difficulty of traveling in the post-apocalyptic world, and because of the tragic situation of no transportation at all, when Wei Xuan and Du Hang reached their destination, it was already three o’clock in the afternoon!

Looking at the time and the street conditions outside, Wei Xuan pulled Du Hang who had been obediently by his side and had been with him for a long time but didn’t complain a word (and couldn’t complain): “It seems that today we have to Camping outside.”

In the last days, the roads are difficult to walk and zombies are rampant. Even if the people in the base go out to do missions, no matter how close the place is, they must be prepared to spend the night outside. Wei Xuan didn’t feel that he could go home and sleep on time since he decided on the route to go out for today—in fact, after thinking about it carefully, after this rebirth, except for the earthquake, he actually slept in the selected house for the rest of the time On the contrary, this is a good life that he never thought of in his previous life.

In the previous life, as long as he left the base, apart from reuniting with Du Hang and throwing away the survivors who also left the base, he either spent the night in the car or stayed overnight in any temporary building he found. How can it be so leisurely like this life?

After confirming the surrounding situation, Du Hang’s dog nose also indicated that he did not smell human breath. After carefully checking the surrounding situation, Wei Xuan began to dig holes and plant things on the green land at the intersection of two wide intersections.

If you walk a lot at night, you will hardly encounter ghosts. For Wei Xuan, who has a special ability, encountering a zombie on the road would not bring him any harm or fright at all, but after growing a lot of things, it was the first time he encountered a zombie at close range. Mutated plants that actively attack humans!

Before entering the green space, Wei Xuan, who observed the situation carefully, only thought that there were only a bunch of withered green plants in the green space, and there was no trace of any mutant plants at all, but when he walked to the green space, , When I started to bend down to dig a hole, a shrub that seemed to be withered or even tilted to the side suddenly moved violently! A vine with spikes roared and swept towards his direction!

It happened so suddenly that Wei Xuan raised his head just because he heard the whistling sound, but he had no time to dodge. At this time, Du Hang, who had been following him obediently holding a bag full of potato sprouts, suddenly grabbed Wei Xuan’s waist and led him to the other direction!
