When the orcs thought they still had no food for lunch, Qiao Xin gave each of them a piece of fish and a bowl of wild vegetable soup that was very thin but enough to warm the body.

Qiao Xin visually judged that the remaining fish could be eaten in the evening. She placed the fish next to her pile of supplies, put away the steel bars used for climbing, and entered the space listening to the pounding sounds in her ears.

You can omit all other seasonings, but not salt.

Qiao Xin headed towards another direction in space that she had not searched for before.

Along the way, there was only black fertile land left, as well as various broken materials mixed in between. Qiao Xin collected all the usable ones and ignored the unusable ones for the time being.

This area used to be used to grow corn, but now there are only withered corn stalks left, which rustle when touched, and there is no possibility of living at all.

Fortunately, Qiao Xin found a mature corn cob in this withered corn field, covered with arm-thick corn cobs. She broke off a cob and tore open the dry skin, revealing the golden corn kernels inside. She burst into tears.

She hadn't eaten staple food for as long as she had been in the beast world, and she felt weak everywhere in her body.

But there wasn't much mature corn in this field. She broke off a sack and put it aside, planning to wait for Lang Rui to come back and eat it with her loyal little brother.

Let him try the polenta from Blue Star too.

Qiao Xin continued to walk forward, and not long after, she saw dozens of military-colored quilts. The quilts that were supposed to be bagged were now wide open and buried in a pile of dead branches.

She ran up excitedly and pulled out all the quilts, which she had collected in a military factory in the last days. The cotton-padded clothes, military coats, cotton shoes and other supplies that were placed together with these quilts did not know where they were scraped off. ! Hopefully there are a few that slipped through the cracks.

The weather is so cold that walking barefoot is really hard.

After patting all the quilts clean and folding them, she actually found two military coats sandwiched between the quilts, and a pair of size 47 leather boots.

Qiao Xin looked at the pair of leather boots that looked like boats, and then at her size 39 feet, "..." Fuck you, uncle!

When she couldn't find the salt, she was not discouraged and left the space.

The fire in the cave did not go out, and the sky had darkened, but Lang Rui and Hunting did not come back.

From time to time, adult orcs stood at the entrance of the cave and looked out, as if they wanted to find the group of orcs who were out in the darkness.

After getting along with each other for a few days, everyone knew that their small group was basically made up of old men, women and children. If they wanted to survive this winter, they had to rely on the group of adult male orcs.

The moon was clear, but the hunting team still hadn't come back, and no one asked for dinner. If something happened to the hunting team, today's hunger was just the beginning for future plans.

The atmosphere gradually became heavy, and the cubs seemed to be unable to feel the atmosphere, playing and fighting in the inner cave.

Hu Jiao walked up to Qiao Xin and knelt on the ground with a plop, "Lord Qiao Xin, please put down the pole. I'm going to look for Hu Ye."

Qiao Xin said nothing and looked at her with a frown.

"My husband is in the hunting team." Hu Jiao lost her two children in the flood. She didn't want to lose her husband again. If she had to lose her, she would die with him.

Qiao Xin closed her eyes and thought of Li Yu and Qiao Lin.

To rescue Luo City, which was besieged by mutated plants, Qiao Lin's team was assigned this task by the superiors.

Within a few days of entering Los Angeles, the team lost contact.

Li Yu couldn't sit still. After waiting for two days, she finally knelt down in front of her with a determined expression, "I want to go find Qiao Lin."

Qiao Xin refused even more firmly than Li Yu, "No, you must obey the order. Your mission is to defend Zheng City."

"Jolin is my boyfriend, I have to go."

Seeing that Qiao Xin was silent, Li Yu knew that she would definitely not agree to him leaving his post without permission. His body softened and he sat crookedly on the ground, "Qiao Lin is your biological brother, your only brother, how can you just watch him. ....." The word "death" can only be uttered easily when it has nothing to do with oneself.

Li Yu didn't even dare to think about this word now.

Qiao Xin tightened the hilt of the knife at her waist, "Li Yu, obeying orders is the bounden duty of every non-staff member with superpowers. The order of our team is to defend Zheng City and defend against the sudden attack of the mutant plant army heading north."

After a pause, she added, her heart aching. Qiao Lin had grown up with her. Losing Qiao Lin hurt her more than anyone else, but she couldn't collapse. Behind her were not only her teammates, but also thousands of others. The people of Zhengcheng, if all their superpowers are scared, what should the ordinary people do?

"If Qiao Lin is really in this difficulty, it's his fate." Qiao Xin pretended to be indifferent and suppressed the pain in her heart.

Li Yu jumped up from the ground, wiped away his tears, glanced at Qiao Xin, and ran away.

That night, the sky was covered with dark clouds just like today. Qiao Xin relaxed her patrol. Li Yu successfully ran out of Zhengcheng and headed to Luocheng alone.

It was also the decision she made that night that caused her to lose her best friend and brother at the same time.

If Qiao Lin knew that she deliberately let Li Yu go to find him, he would definitely hate her as his sister!

Qiao Xin blinked away the sourness in her eyes and replied coldly, "No."

Hujiao froze and burst into tears. The deep-rooted class in her body made it impossible for her to resist except cry.

The children's laughter disappeared amid the cries, and the atmosphere became heavier.

Qiao Xin pressed her temples, stood up, walked to the entrance of the cave, and looked into the distance.

Sadness is contagious.

Among the orcs who came here, before this natural disaster, there was no one who had lost their closest relatives and friends.

Among the dozen cubs, only a few were accompanied by their mothers or fathers, and the rest had lost both parents. The soft sobs gradually became more frequent.

Qiao Xin stood guard in front of the cave and waved her sharp claws. The corners of her lips were raised, and her eyes exuded inorganic indifference. It seemed that nothing in the world could move her. "Whoever cries again, I will kill him!"

After crying for a while, no one dared to question Qiao Xin's words because they had all seen how cruel she was.

She cried so hard that she couldn't control herself. She covered her mouth and sobbed from time to time.

Hu Jiao, on the other hand, was still crying. Whether she died or not was not important to her at all.

After a long time, Qiao Xin said in a hoarse voice: "If, I mean if, they still haven't come back early tomorrow morning, I will accompany you to find them."

Hu Jiao opened her red and swollen eyes, sobbing and looking at the tall and thin figure at the entrance of the cave. The loneliness, desolation, but strength made her feel a little more at ease.

"Really?"

Qiao Xin turned her back to everyone and nodded slightly.
