Vol 4 Chapter 18: One of the ten unsolved mysteries

The shortcut path leading to the northern base is a bluestone road that has been repaired. Although it is rough, it is still suitable for people to walk on.

There are also many safety facilities on both sides of the stone road, such as the earth wall built on the ground, the thorny wall with thorns, and the black wall that seems to be made of iron... This is neither wide nor narrow. The bluestone road is protected in the middle. Judging from the workmanship and roughness of these various walls of different materials, it is obviously something that was made by the power users who passed through here after the end of the world.

Fan Qianhan took a cursory glance, and these walls seemed to be useless. If they were attacked by a powerful mutant plant or mutant animal, they would shoot it down with a claws or a leaf. Collapsed, of course the remaining 10% is because they are shot crooked.

However, such a wall that is not very reliable actually shoulders the heavy burden of going back and forth from the northern base to the cottage, and no major accident has occurred, which is surprising. After all, there are mountains on both sides of this bluestone road. The most important thing is plants, and there should be a lot of animals.

Therefore, maintaining such curiosity, Fan Qianhan and Lou Yanxiao went all the way safely, and they did not encounter any danger before reaching the other end of the bluestone road.

After turning a big turn, they officially reached the area of ​​the northern base. However, the scene in front of them seems to be a little different from what they imagined.

Lou Yanxiao stepped forward with a pair of deep eyes half-squinted, blocking the sand and dust that hit them. Then he put down his arms and looked at the yellow sandy land in front of him, and his brows were wrinkled. "This is--"

It is said that the northern region is a farming area, so why is it covered with green plants, but now it is actually developing towards land desertification?

Lin Hu, who was walking on the side, hurried forward and explained, "This is originally a watermelon field, but you also know that after the end of the world, there are far more mutated plants than non-mutated plants. This large watermelon field has nearly half of it. All of them became mutated plants, and the few that were not mutated were also smashed by them. And they often attacked passing humans. The first beauty of the God of War team, Lin Peishan, was almost entangled in this piece of watermelon vine, because she was in God of War. The status of the team. The God of War force didn't say a word, and soon dispatched people to shovel this watermelon field to the roots. So there is only such a yellow sand field left."

"Oh." Several people nodded, so it was.

The same one also frowned deeply. The vegetation has decreased and the land has become desertified. I am afraid that life will become more and more difficult in the future. In the apocalypse, in addition to the most dangerous mutant plants, mutant animals and zombies, there are also soil and water, this land that nurtured us, hey—

But no amount of emotion is useless. The soil is polluted and the water source is soaked with viruses. If they continue to do this, the living area of ​​human beings will only shrink in the future.

Fan Qianhan's slender eyelashes trembled, and it seemed that Yao Xuzhuo would have to study more potions for improving the land in the future. Otherwise, they will only be able to maintain the oasis by planting mutant plants in the future.

"Oh, by the way, this bluestone road was also discovered by the God of War team. One of their team members has the ability to condense the liquid that drives away mutant animals and mutant plants. Previously, the walls on both sides of the bluestone road were sprinkled with them. Only this kind of liquid can be kept safe. Of course, not all mutant animals and mutant plants will be affected. Occasionally, some resistant mutant plants will come in and run around. As for mutant animals, since the two walls were built, there is no I have seen one. So we also call that liquid animal repellent liquid." Lin Hu said slightly from one side.

"Hey - there is this kind of ability, it sounds amazing." Yuan Tong, Lin Yuchen and others opened their mouths slightly, and their faces were full of surprise. They originally thought that Yu Qi's ability in their team was Peach Blossom Rain is already very special, and now I didn't expect to have such a strange ability, but it is quite useful for the end of the world.

"The number one beauty, tsk tsk... but she's quite arrogant." Fan Qianhan rubbed her chin, her squinting eyes twinkled with a playful light, and it was the rhythm of doing things.

It was Lou Yanxiao who listened the most seriously, and raised his doubts with a slightly wrinkled eyebrow, "Since the God of War team was the first to discover this road, why did you go to that stockade for cooperation?"

"Ah - this, it's still because of the difference in the master of Lu. She didn't fully cooperate with the people in the God of War team, but it was reported that she had food in her hand, and she asked for the brain core in exchange for everything. Yes, many people from other teams have traded through this bluestone halfway, and some of them have specially established a cooperative relationship, so that the head of Lu Da can provide food on time. This time I went there for the food there. "

"Oh, then speaking of that, the head of Lu Da still has some prestige in this northern base." Fan Qianhan rubbed his chin, it seems that the previous head of Lu Da was so arrogant at the beginning and had some capital.

"Then where did she get so much food?" Lou Yanxiao frowned and asked, "Isn't anyone investigating?"

"Hehe, of course there is. Food is the most valuable thing in this apocalypse. How could those teams not be interested in the past, how could they have not gone to investigate, but they all came back without success, no one knows about those Where did the food come from. And those who went to investigate were also very strange. After going there once, they didn't send anyone to go there for the second time. There is a tendency to make friends with that cottage. This is also one of the top ten of our northern base. One of the unsolved mysteries." Lin Hu scratched his head, and was very curious. If it weren't for the heavy damage to their team this time, he might have gone to explore if he couldn't hold his own curiosity.

Hearing this, Fan Qianhan and Lou Yanxiao also nodded their heads. It was really strange. The food from nowhere was a big piece of pie, but no one took it. The bones are of no interest, which is very strange.

"Yo, Shouzi, it looks like you know something, let's talk, let's talk." Yuan Tong's voice came out from the side, and a few people looked over, and saw that he had a hand on Shouzi's shoulder , talking with a hippie smile.

"This, I'm just suspicious, just suspicious." The thin man scratched his hair, but he didn't feel guilty for what he was about to say. Anyway, he was now determined to leave the head of Lu Da, and it was nothing to tell her secret.

Moreover, he has followed this team all the way in the past two days, so don’t mention how comfortable it is. Although there are more things to help wash and wash pots, but he can eat, sleep and drink well, which is better than when he was in the cottage before. Life is much better. Therefore, in order to stay, he chose to show himself as much as possible, only he is valuable, and staying has more chips, right?

"Tell me, don't imitate the babbling of girls, hesitating." Seeing that he hadn't spoken yet, Yuan Tong slapped him on the shoulder to encourage him.

"Uh..." The thin man endured the pain in his shoulders, and the expression on his face was indescribable. Originally, he wanted to ask what the conditions were for staying in this team, but being watched by these pair of eyes, he silently decided to swallow this question first, let’s talk about it first.

"When I was in the cottage before, I was just an ordinary person, and logically I couldn't get food, but one time I was really hungry, and I secretly went to the big boss to save food. At that time, the big boss and the northern base A team transaction is imminent, I thought that there must be a lot of food in the granary, but I didn’t expect that there was nothing in it.”

"Nothing?" Curiously widened their eyes, all of them were like gossip.

The thin man glanced at them, chose to ignore these expressions, and said solemnly, "Yes, there is nothing, so I stared at the warehouse for a few days, and no one has ever brought in the grain. But I didn't expect a big big one. The head of the family went in once, and when she came out, there was actually some grain inside, but it was scattered on the ground without any packaging. I also checked it by going in to help pack the bags, and it was indeed real rice, but There is a **** smell on the rice, and I have a slightly more sensitive nose than a normal person, so that's why I smell it."

"Yes, yes, when they were steaming rice in the square before, they did smell a little blood." Yuan Tong also nodded seriously.
