末世 二三 事

Qu Zhengchao stood in the middle of the second team's remodeled dining hall, bowed at ninety degrees to Jing Lin and Cao Sanye, and said earnestly, "Thank you for taking care of my grandpa."

After meeting Uncle Qu, Qu Zhengchao already knew from his grandfather that the reason he is still alive is thanks to Jing Lin and the people who now live in the second team, especially Jing Lin, whose grandfather is now eating and using. All were given by Jing Lin at the beginning, this love cannot be repaid with just a word of thanks.

Jinglin and the others saw soldiers for the first time after the end of the world, and they were very curious about the situation outside and the country's response, especially everyone was so curious about the big truck they drove.The meal was only half eaten, so Mr. Cao proposed to eat the meal first and talk later, and invited Qu Zhengchao and his brothers to come to the table as well.

Qu Zhengchao said: "No need, you guys eat first, and I'll tell you when you're done."

Because of the military style, it is not easy for them to eat anything with the boss's surname, not to mention the food shortage, so even though Qu Zhengchao was hungry at the moment, he still refused.

However, Third Master Cao insisted on bringing him and the others to the dining table. The clever Shunzi had already washed a few rice bowls. Third Master Cao divided two cornmeal pancakes, and handed them the chopsticks for them to pick up the meat and vegetables. eat.

Qu Zhengchao sat beside his grandfather, with a pair of chopsticks stuffed in his hand, he glanced at the cornmeal pancakes in the bowl and the vegetables and soup on the table.The vegetables are pickled vegetables and meat, and the soup is the common weed soup on their road. This kind of weed has almost become the life-saving food of the refugees. This is the green vegetable that they eat most along the way. The taste is not good. It is astringent and numb, but it can't kill people, and it can also improve gastrointestinal problems.

These days, fresh vegetables are not available.He knew that now that there are so many mutated beasts, there is no shortage of meat for those who are capable, but because the crops are not growing, food is in short supply. Except for people like Wei Zhen and Zhu Ren, vegetables can still be eaten now. Ordinary people want to Don't think about it, if you want to eat green vegetables, you can only find ways to find this kind of mutated and non-toxic weeds to eat.

It's already on the table, and if you go down, you won't give face to the host family. Besides, they came back with a mission this time. After the mission is completed, they will reward a lot of supplies. When the time comes, part of it will be given to the second team.

Thinking of this, Qu Zhengchao took a bite of the cornbread first, and beckoned his brothers to eat too.

Everyone was hungry, and no one spoke at the dinner table, only the sound of chewing food.

After the meal was full, Shunzi, Li Guihua and others put away the dishes and chopsticks. They were in charge of the logistics. Shunzi and the brothers took turns to change. They didn’t need to go hunting while cooking. Li Guihua had brought out half of the food before. , helping to cook every day, she is also a part of the prey that Cao Sanye and the others hunted, and the two children are also included, and everyone gets along well.

"It's quite cool in this room." Qu Zhengchao said.

Cao Sanye said: "I found a plant on the mountain that can be used as an air conditioner."

Qu Zhengchao nodded: "Many plants have mutated now, and many plants that have never been seen before have appeared. Some plants have really special uses."

Afterwards, Qu Zhengchao told everyone about the outside and their mission when they came back this time.

Qu Zhengchao's army was originally a field force stationed in province G. After the end of the world, cities were occupied by mutated plants and animals. The mutated animals and plants in these cities seemed to be extraordinarily fierce, and most of them preyed on humans. brutal.During this period, Qu Zhengchao's task was to lead the troops to several cities to assist the local government in rescuing the trapped residents, and to eliminate the mutated animals and plants with potential safety hazards.

For this reason, they killed and injured many brothers, including Qu Zhengchao, who also escaped from death several times, with overlapping wounds of various sizes, and it is impossible to count them.

Like Qu Zhengchao, many brothers miss this family, but because they have orders, they have not been able to leave and return home.Until more than two months ago, they met Shi Lei and his party in Province H who asked the local government for help.

Qu Zhengchao said: "So we were sent to help them eradicate the morning glory piranhas in the county."

Jing Lin frowned: "The morning glory also looks very powerful." Qu Zhengchao and the others alone?Although their skills should be pretty good, but the morning glory is already very huge, how many people they have to mobilize to destroy it.

Qu Zhengchao said: "We are not unprepared for this. There are two monks who came back with us this time."

Jing Lin: "A monk?"

"Yes." Qu Zhengchao said, his face was a little serious when he said this: "Friar, we can also be understood as cultivators. I only realized that there have always been such people in this world after contacting them. They are all cultivators. The members of the family or the cultivation sect who go out to practice are practicing the way of longevity, their cultivation base is unpredictable, and their skills are extraordinary. Only a small number of people knew about them before, and they did not fully appear in front of people until after the end of the world. Now everyone In the province, there are almost two or three monks sitting in the town, and when they encounter mutated animals and plants that we can't solve, they will take action."

With a flat expression, Jing Lin exchanged a glance with Yan Fei.It turns out that besides them, there are other cultivators in this world.

Qu Zhengchao continued: "However, most of these monks are not easy to get along with. If you meet such people in the future, you'd better stay away from them and don't offend them."

When Qu Zhengchao said this, there was still a subtle hint of sarcasm in his tone.These monks walk in the mortal world, and what they call is the slogan of saving the common people and saving the people from the fire and water.But the vast majority of them looked at ordinary people with arrogance, like looking at ants, and disdain to talk to them. Qu Zhengchao has always disliked this kind of behavior.But because those people are capable, and what they do is really beneficial to the people, when talking to these people, even if the other party's nostrils are turned upside down, Qu Zhengchao will turn a blind eye. At least the superficial skills are done well.

However, the appearance of monks is generally good.

Yan Fei asked: "Then, do those monks know why the world has become like this?"

Qu Zhengchao nodded: "They have mentioned it before. It seems that it was caused by the explosion of the spiritual energy of the five elements buried in the ground veins tens of millions of years ago."

"Five elements? Reiki?" Except for Jing Lin and the others, everyone else had an expression as if they were listening to the Arabian Nights.

"That's right." Qu Zhengchao said, "Do you know about the earthquake that happened in August in City I of X Province more than a year ago?"

"We know this." Because the earthquake disaster was relatively serious, there were news on TV every day, and few people would not know about it.

Not to mention Jing Lin, his sister and brother-in-law died in that earthquake. Now that Qu Zhengchao mentioned it, does it have something to do with the five elements?

Qu Zhengchao continued: "The earthquake was caused by the eruption of one of the spiritual energy, but the aura did not fully erupt at that time, and the vibration caused was relatively small. Not long after the power outage in the city, there was another earthquake in I City After that, the spiritual energy quickly spread to several surrounding cities, and the impact was also severe. After being baptized by the spiritual energy, all the animals and plants in City I mutated, and there were especially many cruel ones. After that, there were four other Earthquakes also occurred in two places, which are the sea area near Fusang country, Phil city in Rezhou, Jialan city in Berry country, and K city next door to your province. After the earthquake in K city, the situation there , about the same as City I."

Having said that, Jing Lin and the others all remembered the earthquake in the middle of the night last year, which turned out to be City K.

Qu Zhengchao continued: "I heard some monks mention these things, I don't know how they learned about them, but the small number of residents who escaped from City I have some changes in their bodies, and now most of them are sick. After entering the sect of cultivation, according to them, those mutated animals and plants generally develop intelligence, and some of them can also speak. They know how to disguise, understand strategies, and have various mysterious abilities. They are very smart, but this smartness, they all use it. To hunt and kill human beings or kill each other to improve their strength. The current city I has become a world and purgatory for mutated animals and plants, and most people dare not approach it. City K should be similar."

As he said that, Qu Zhengchao also reminded Mr. Cao: "When we left Province G, I heard that a group of monks had gone to City I to find mutated animals and plants. I heard from some monks that these mutated animals and plants , after reaching a certain stage, there will be pill cores in their bodies. Pill cores can be used for their cultivation, and almost any part of the body of any mutated animals and plants is useful. The big truck we drove was modified, The internal structure has changed a bit, and some of the materials are made of the skin and bones of mutated animals. Now the market demand for mutated animals is very high. You have to be optimistic about your mutated beast, don’t let it run around, don’t hurt people at will, or it will fall. In the hands of someone with a heart, I'm afraid I won't survive."

Qu Zhengchao had come into contact with quite a lot of mutated beasts. When he first saw Sanhua after entering the village, he found that although the cat's eyes were full of hostility, it was still different from those ferocious mutated animals and plants. She is more docile, willing to be approached by others, and the representative is also okay.

Like Sanhua, most of them are pets raised by humans. They have better senses to people, so they are not a big threat, and they are even helped by people in many cases.As long as this kind of mutant beast has no record of hurting people, it is forbidden to capture it.There is no killing without buying and selling, but because the market in this area has been opened, some capable and ambitious people only see benefits in their eyes, and many mutant beasts like Sanhua have been secretly killed.

The pupils of Jing Lin and the others shrank, and the atmosphere froze. Sanhua could understand Qu Zhengchao's meaning, so she prostrated herself on the ground and roared at him in a low voice.

Qu Zhengchao couldn't be blamed for this matter. Third Master Cao thanked him for his reminder, stroked Sanhua's head to comfort it, and felt bad all of a sudden.He has raised Sanhua for so long, even if he thought that he could not tame Sanhua, he did not have the idea of ​​killing it, not to mention that now that his feelings have come out, he thought bitterly, if anyone dares to call attention to his Sanhua On Hua, he will never let her go.

Jing Lin's mood also became gloomy. There are four mutant beasts in his family, and all of them are docile. Thinking about the croaking that is always wandering outside, Jing Lin decided to get it back immediately after going back, and not let it run around anymore. up.
