The last plant pet took me to be the landlord

64 Encountering a Village 1

It was already evening and the sun was about to set.

When Lu Bei'er woke up, she didn't see Xiaojiu and the two flowers, but she saw two large lumps of unknown things moving quickly in the middle of the rice field on the balcony on the second floor.

Judging from the direction, it seemed to be coming from the bamboo forest and moving quickly towards the mountain forest.

Lu Beier went down the small building halfway up the mountain and came to the center of the rice field. She saw a sparrow chirping in front of her, followed by two... oh, two flowers.

Unlike the thin vines that stood on her shoulders in the past, now they have grown to several meters high, with vines as thick as an adult's calf and branches as thick as a wrist.

They were carrying two piles of thorns as high as hills, and were shuttling between the ridges and rice fields.

If you look closely, you will see that the thorny bushes are the citron trees in the bamboo forest.

Looking at this strange combination and image in the sunset, Lu Beier's depressed mood suddenly improved.

She doesn't have nothing left, she still has Xiaojiu and Huahua!

In the distance, the three of them spotted Lu Bei'er and ran over happily.

Xiao Jiu chattered and was the first to speak: "Host! Look at what we can do! We pulled out a lot of these thorny trifoliate trees for you!"

[It sounds like you've taken action too! ]

[It's just talking! ]

……

The setting sun completely fell into the mountains and forests, and the evening breeze brought a hint of coolness, blowing away the heat of the day.

……

Jiang Bai finally entered W Province in the afternoon. He had driven more than 800 kilometers from J City to here, about two-thirds of the way.

After leaving the base where Captain Luo was last time, we encountered several waves of search and rescue teams dispatched by the government on the road, and also passed by several rescue stations where civilians spontaneously gathered together for warmth.

The environment is still similar, and the personnel are also chaotic and complicated.

However, with the support of the government, basic order can still be maintained. As time goes by, coupled with various measures to encourage the masses to collect information spontaneously and provide for themselves, disasters with huge casualties at the beginning of the end of the world have gradually decreased, and the new order is gradually being improved.

Generally, Jiang Bai would try to reduce the number of times he entered the base unless it was necessary. One reason was the various inspections and accommodation issues when entering and leaving the base; the other was to avoid the various troubles that might arise from meeting acquaintances.

Therefore, in order to avoid these unnecessary troubles, he would basically find a place to spend the night outside.

Luna, who was traveling with us, had no such concerns. Although she still disliked her owner, it did not affect her requests for the poop-scooper.

For example, when you want to eat canned food, you must have it; when you want to go to the bathroom, you must get off the bus.

Only when they occasionally encounter a group of zombies approaching will they make some warning sounds.

Jiang Bai could basically translate the meaning of that voice: Is this day going to end? How much time has been wasted? Why hasn't it arrived yet?

It would never do such dirty work as killing zombies or catching rats.

It basically slept soundly in the back seat the entire time, without even opening its eyes.

At this time, Jiang Bai's off-road vehicle had already come down from the highway in W Province and entered the national highway.

Before the sun set, he found a small village beside the national road.

The village is not big, with about 20 to 30 households. The self-built houses all have their own characteristics and all face the national highway.

It can be seen from far away on the road. It is very close to the national highway, but a little far from the nearby towns.

From the asphalt road to the cement road in the village, Jiang Bai parked the off-road vehicle in a large yard with a sign that read "Farmer's Homemade Dishes".

He stopped the car, turned off the engine, got out, took out a machete, and killed a dozen zombies that were attracted by the sound.

Jiang Bai did not go out of his way to look for other scattered zombies in the village. He just walked around the front and back doors of the yard he chose and its surroundings.

The zombies have basically been dealt with.

He estimated that these dozen zombies had stayed here and had not left, perhaps because there were still living villagers hiding in their homes.

He ignored it and closed the iron door which looked quite sturdy, then went into the house and looked around.

Didn't find any problems, so we just cleaned it up a bit and moved in.

It was dinner time. Luna had just had her share of canned food for the day, and Jiang Bai hadn't even had time to eat his dinner - a box lunch - when there was a knock on the gate.

The sound was not loud, but it never stopped.

Jiang Bai had no choice but to put away the things that shouldn't be in the room, including the box of hot meal that he hadn't eaten.

The iron gate was half opened, and a thin old man appeared, with two strong men in their thirties or forties behind him. They each held a carrying pole, a hoe and a shovel in their hands.

When the iron gate opened, Jiang Bai stood in front of the half-open entrance.

They didn't seem to want to come in.

In order to avoid misunderstanding, after the door opened, they all took a step back and placed the weapons in their hands on the ground, trying to look calm despite their unhappy faces.

The old man was in the front, smiling broadly, "Thank you, young man, for helping us clean up these monsters! Thank you so much!"

The two people following behind also nodded in thanks.

"Need not!"

These two simple words made the three of them feel Jiang Bai's indifference.

These dozen or so zombies are really nothing, but these dozen or so zombies have become the most terrifying existence in the entire village in these three months.

They used to be relatives, friends, and family members of the villagers. Therefore, after they turned into monsters, they only dared to drive them out of their homes, and did not dare to kill them at all, nor could they do it.

But these feelings of reluctance and unwillingness finally disappeared after they had besieged the village for three months.

Therefore, Jiang Bai, who suddenly appeared and helped them deal with these zombies, was a great help.

The gratitude is genuine, but there is also fear.

After the zombies were killed, the villagers dared to go out of their homes. They cleared out the zombies from each family and sent the former captain of the village and his two sons to thank Jiang Bai. They also wanted to learn about the outside world through him as an outsider.

It’s just that this young man is a little difficult to deal with.

But the old man still asked Jiang Bai the most important purpose of his visit despite his indifferent expression.

"Young man! What's going on in the outside world now? When will the government come? Is there any rescue team coming to our place? Although our village is small, it is close to the driveway. Why has no one come to check on us?..."

These days, the old man and the villagers hid at home and listened to the sounds on the road outside, but no one came into the village, and there had been no vehicles passing by the national highway in front of the village for a long time.

Neither the government staff nor their families waited for anything.

Jiang Bai is the first outsider they have been waiting for during this period of time.
