Siheyuan: 55 years, starting from a buyer

What should I do? When Yu Xiaowei was feeling nervous, a space prompt suddenly sounded: "Beep! The system determines that this is a critical moment for the host. Based on the analysis of the current system activation document, the following strategies are provided to the host for reference. 1. The host can..." Hearing these lengthy introductions, if it weren't for the fact that this prompt came from the virtual space rather than a physical life form, she would probably want to completely terminate the notification function of the space at this moment. In this critical moment, wouldn't concise suggestions be more effective in solving the problem? In this life-and-death moment, she didn't know how much harm a lengthy and endless explanation might cause.

Despite this, Yu Xiaowei's inner emotional fluctuations were not understood by the system. The other party still followed its own way of reporting. Seeing that the claws of the giant mutant lobster were about to fall on her head, Yu Xiaowei had no time to consider all the subsequent options given by the system. She only shouted from the bottom of her heart: "Choose the first option, only the first option!"

"Well...Xiaowei, are you planning to have it as dinner?" Song Yin looked at Yu Xiaowei who was sitting in the back and the huge lobster following her, turned his head and asked this question.

At this time, Yu Xiaowei remained calm on the surface, but her heart was broken.

Faced with an emergency, there was no time to consider other options. The only thing that mattered was saving her life, so she chose the first option without hesitation.

Every time the system was used, it was very fast and efficient. Seeing the giant mutant lobster's claws about to land, even someone as calm as Song Yin felt a hint of unbelievable despair. After failing to control and release the power of his special ability in time during the last operation, he no longer had room for resistance.

Incredibly, when everyone gave up all hope - and even tried to reach out to protect Yu Xiaowei, hoping to create even a slight possibility for her escape - fate seemed to change at this moment.

The super mutant lobster actually put down its huge claws and stopped steadily in front of them.

At this time, Yu Xiaowei breathed a sigh of relief as if he had been relieved: "Brother Song Yin, it's okay."

Then, Song Yin, full of questions and doubts, looked at the giant lobster, which was acting unusually docile, swaying left and right in front of Yu Xiaowei, as if it had been professionally trained, and asked in confusion, "What on earth happened?"

At this moment, Yu Xiaowei felt a great pressure in her heart, "I... I just felt that I seemed to have awakened a special power just now... It is a power that can make ignorant creatures succumb..." Her heart was almost broken. The transaction that she invested a full thousand points in exchange for a special ability that can only make non-intelligent creatures obey her instructions. A thousand points! It was only after accumulating a thousand points that she felt a little fulfilled behind the number. However, this process disappeared in an instant. And the final result was such a seemingly impractical "useless ability".

Let's think about the so-called useless ability! This ability can control non-high-level intelligent life forms, but the premise is that it must be non-high-level intelligent and must be alive.

If they just don't have high intelligence, it's not a big deal. At least I can use this ability to control the group of level 1 zombies, and I might even try to control the level 2 zombies. Although the zombies have gradually shown some initial intelligence after evolution, the fact that there are so many level 0 zombies is still crucial.

However, there is a restriction - only living things can be controlled!

Whether zombies or mutants, they are not within the permitted range. Among the mutant creatures, such as those with hard shells, cell types and invertebrates can be controlled, but even creatures with a considerable level of intelligence such as pet cats and dogs cannot be controlled. In addition, there is no clear definition of so-called non-advanced intelligence.

Is this the so-called "useless" ability in the doomsday era? Yu Xiaowei was really sad. If she exchanged it for a one-time ability, she could use it more than ten times, such as elementary agility, elementary strength, etc., which could save her life... Yu Xiaowei was extremely regretful. When she wanted to explain, Zhang Sheng on the other side of the river found a place to set up the oven and shouted to them: "Xiaowei, Xiaoshang, are you okay? Come and have a look!"

Looking at Zhang Sheng, whose face was full of worry, Yu Xiaowei gave up the idea of ​​being upset about her newly acquired ability. She pointed listlessly at Shang Yun on the other side and said, "Brother Yun, let's go over and talk first!"

"Lobster, Follow Me", Yu Xiaowei and Shang Yun crossed over the grill built by Zhang Sheng, and the huge mutant lobster swam from the water to the river.

"Xiaowei, what's going on with such a big lobster?" Zhang Sheng looked at the scene in front of him with curiosity. At first, he thought that the huge lobster had become the source of crisis for Yu Xiaowei, and he was nervous at the other end of the river.

Especially when he saw the huge lobster raising its claws and throwing them towards Yu Xiaowei and Shang Yun, Zhang Sheng seemed to want to fly over to help immediately.

Afterwards, he was surprised that the giant lobster's claws remained motionless and were circling around Yu Xiaowei. Then, the huge lobster even seemed to be very intimate as it shuttled around Yu Xiaowei.

Now when the two of them moved along the grill, the giant shrimp also followed along the river obediently, and then stayed quietly by the side without moving. "Master, this... This is a special ability that I just suddenly awakened, but it is not very practical." Yu Xiaowei briefly introduced this seemingly useless ability to Zhang Sheng.

`` `

This is a story about survival in the apocalypse. In this post-apocalyptic era, people are faced with all kinds of sudden unknown challenges and the evolution of life forms. In such an environment, it is crucial to find new survival skills and abilities. Although the abilities Yu Xiaowei has acquired seem useless, she still strives to adapt and use them, and finally discovers their potential value and application scenarios.

The story is centered on the interaction between characters, showing the courage, adaptability and exploration of future possibilities of human nature. In the face of crisis, the interweaving of survival and the light of hope becomes a powerful force to promote individual growth.

In this fictional world, humans face the test of disasters and demonstrate efforts and wisdom in different dimensions in the process of exploration. From ordinary survival skills to the exploration of extraordinary superpowers, all of them reflect the process of humans constantly surpassing themselves and creating new life in adversity. The story not only focuses on the material challenges of survival, but also emphasizes the resilience and growth of the spiritual and emotional levels.

`` `

"So that's how it is. Although the benefits don't seem to be much, it's better to have something than nothing." Zhang Sheng didn't think about this question for too long. He felt that every ability he gained was an additional chance to save his life.

In Zhang Sheng's opinion, this ability is good, just like what happened just now. If Yu Xiaowei didn't have special abilities, the damage might have been caused by the giant mutant shrimp.

Yu Xiaowei sighed. If it was a free ability, she would not be picky about it. But the problem now was that she had already used up a thousand exchange points to buy this ability.

After deducting the temporary ability that can be used ten times, Yu Xiaowei can now use the remaining points to exchange for a permanent ability. It can be a permanent visual change or a permanent sound change. If it is a visual change, she can see farther and have a good field of vision in the dark night, which is very useful for her when there is a lack of light and she doesn't have a flashlight. In the end, she spent such a large amount of money to buy such a seemingly ordinary ability.

But since it has been exchanged, it is impossible to return it. Fortunately, the quantity limit is loose: the ability only requires sufficient points, and there is no upper limit; otherwise, she might be troubled by this ability.

"Speaking of which, Aunt Yu, I just heard Liu Peng say, did you catch fish and shrimps before?" Wu Nan walked over and asked Yu Xiaowei.

"Yes, that's right. This is Xuyi County. The prawns here are very famous. A large-scale shrimp pond has just appeared there, but they are too difficult to catch." Yu Xiao smiled.

Wu Nan smiled and said, "You just told me! Although I haven't been able to do it, I have a friend who has done this kind of thing before. He told me how to do it. If you are not in a hurry, we can stay here. We just found an empty room in the ** place. It's right in front. It's clean and no one lives there."

He glanced at the time and saw that the previous block was already in the morning. Although it was not yet noon, he had to hurry if he wanted to get to the next block. "Let's just stay here. So, what are you going to do?"

They drove to a nearby house, "Come on, come on, let's go in and take a look first, I'll prepare some things." Wu Nan left a mysterious feeling and got in the car with everyone else and drove towards the house not far away.

After getting in the car, Yu Xiaowei opened the door and called out to the large mutant shrimp that looked a little stupid: "Listen, shrimps, please follow me!"

"That's the house in front." Zhang Sheng pointed and said to Yu Xiaowei, "We found ** in that family before. There is no one else there, and the environment is very clean."

At the same time, the car had stopped smoothly on the side of the road, and a group of people got out of the car. Xiaobao looked at Yu Xiaowei in front of him with full expectation.

"Lobster, come here~" Yu Xiaowei stretched out his hand to the huge lobster, and then the giant lobster quickly crawled forward.

Yu Xiaowei ensured the stability of the dragon, gently placed Xiaobao on the lobster, and guided Xiaobao to grab the top of the lobster's head. Then she slowly stood up to show encouragement and help. The lobster was indeed very strong. Even with Xiaobao riding on it, it was not hindered at all and still flexibly shuttled around Yu Xiaowei.
