Chapter 74: End Times 7
When he woke up the next day, Tong Sui felt sore all over.
He sat on the bed in a daze for a while, not remembering when he climbed into bed and covered the quilt.
Did you get dizzy from reading?
Tong Sui pursed his lips.
"hiss."
There was a bit of tingling on the lips, as if the thin layer of skin had been kissed heavily and rubbed repeatedly.
But he was clearly the only one in this room.
Tong Sui lifted the quilt and got out of bed.
He checked that the doors and windows were normal, and there were no signs of being pried.
"very strange……"
Is this how fragile this body is?
Tong Sui walked into the bathroom to wash up, his lips in the mirror were still a little swollen.
His body was heavy, and he didn't do much exercise yesterday. Using a knife should also cause pain in his arm. How could it be a faint soreness in his thigh muscles?
Tong Sui took off his clothes and prepared to take another bath.
He bowed his head, and there were no wounds on his body.
And at the position he couldn't see, from the beautifully shaped shoulder blade all the way down the spine, it looked like a string of scattered pearls, with various traces distributed lightly or heavily.
He turned his head with a bright hickey, hidden under the soft broken hair.
Tong Sui did not notice these abnormalities.
system:"……"
It completely witnessed everything that happened yesterday, and was thinking about whether to tell its host that a thief had broken into the house.
This thief is still the kind of flower picker who doesn't want to do anything else but only care about his body.
Tong Sui felt much more comfortable after taking a bath, but the muscles in his thighs became more and more sore, and they were still a little hot.
He ignored the discomfort.
Picking up the book on the table that he hadn't finished reading, Tong Sui bumped into Jiang Hua standing in the corridor when he went out.
"Morning, Team Hua."
Tong Sui walked up quickly and greeted him with a smile.
Jiang Hua nodded, "Morning."
His gaze passed over the back of Tong Sui's neck calmly, as if he saw something, his eyes were a little darker.
Tong Sui turned his head blankly.
The hallway behind them was empty, nothing.
"Captain Hua, what were you looking at just now?"
Jiang Hua said: "No."
Tong Sui was at a loss.
I don't know if it's his illusion, but Jiang Hua seems to be in a better mood.
And it's a bit strange to say, except for the fact that Jiang Hua's complexion was a little bad when he saw Jiang Hua in the morning two days ago.
Seeing him in good spirits these two mornings.
But Tong Sui didn't think too much about it.
The two went to the cafeteria yesterday for dinner together.
Today's weather is a bit gloomy, even in daytime, the light is very dim.
A large group of dark clouds covered the already dark sky, as if they were about to fall, and the air was more oppressive than usual.
Tong Sui saw a small figure squatting on the steps from a distance, and when she saw them approaching, the little girl stood up.
"elder brother!"
Na Na's eyes lit up, and when she saw Jiang Hua beside Tong Sui, she stopped, flinched and shouted, "Brother Captain."
Tong Sui bent down and touched the top of her hair, "Why are you here so early, have you eaten yet?"
"have eaten!"
The little girl was obviously much cleaner than yesterday, she spread her palms, "Grandma said let me come over to thank you."
Inside her small palm lay a few small animals made of straw. Although their appearance was not exquisite, they were clumsy and cute.
"I made this up last night..."
The more she spoke, the lower her voice became. Even though she was still young, after experiencing the last two months, she understood that compared with the materials Tong Sui and Jiang Hua gave her, she couldn't afford this little thing.
Tong Sui took it with a smile.
"It's cute, thank you. I'll put it away properly."
The little girl was obviously encouraged, nodded vigorously, and ran away after giving the things.
Tong Sui held the little thing made of straw in his hand and looked at it as he walked.
Jiang Hua glanced at it.
"What's so interesting about this?"
"Don't you think it's amazing?" Tong Sui said, "It's handmade, and it took a lot of thought. And Na Na is still so young."
"At her age, I can do more than her."
At that time, he was already able to use various skill combinations to kill an adult on his own.
Tong Sui smiled and said, "Hua Dui, why are you comparing yourself to a child?"
Jiang Hua was slightly taken aback.
"I……"
He just felt that Tong Sui was distracted by things that didn't belong to him, and he was unhappy that even he couldn't explain it himself.
Tong Sui put these little straw animals into the space, "But I'm still a little curious, the Chinese team shouldn't be as stern as they are now when they were young."
Jiang Hua: "..."
Tong Sui pressed his nose to his face, and touched his head, "Why don't you call me brother too, and I'll praise you?"
Jiang Hua stared at him.
Those blue eyes were dark, Tong Sui was afraid of being beaten, so he walked into the cafeteria in a few steps.
Jiang Hua raised his hand and put it on the hair on the top of his head that Tong Sui had touched.
elder brother.
He rolled these two words in the bottom of his heart, as if his chest became hot unconsciously, and the tips of his ears were slightly hot.
He wanted to hear Tong Sui shouting more than shouting himself.
It feels completely different when you are awake than when you are asleep.
The sleeping Tong Sui is still cute and cute, but he can't see those smart eyes, and he won't call him out, even if he does too much, it will only leave short-term marks on his body.
Like a monster hiding in the dark, it can only shrink into a dark and damp corner during the day.
do not know why.
He was gradually dissatisfied with this.
Tong Sui was unaware of this, he walked into the cafeteria and ran into the smiling men from yesterday.
They are the management class in the base.
"Get up," the man said, "Our aunt in the cafeteria has just cooked hot porridge with pumpkin in it. It's very nourishing for the stomach."
Tong Sui was a little flustered by his attitude.
He said to the system in his mind: "They didn't put anything in the meal, did they?"
The system said: "No."
Only then did Tong Sui pick up the bowl and made two bowls of porridge.
The other plate was filled with steamed buns, and he took a few by the way.
When Jiang Hua walked in, Tong Sui put down the tray.
"I'll take it for you."
Seeing Jiang Hua, the eyes of those men lit up, as if he was a wad of walking banknotes.
Jiang Hua sat down opposite Tong Sui.
Tong Sui handed him one of the relatively full bowls of porridge.
Jiang Hua said: "Thank you."
Tong Sui picked up the spoon and took a sip.
The taste of the pumpkin porridge is very sweet and not too greasy for breakfast. The buns are filled with pork vermicelli and the fillings are well adjusted.
Tong Sui is used to eating less in the morning, so he ate a little more than usual this morning, finishing a small bowl of porridge and buns.
Seeing that they were almost done eating, the man who had been standing beside him said, "How about it? I specially asked someone to cook it. Is the taste okay?"
Jiang Hua said lightly: "When we leave, we will make up for these expenses according to the market price."
"No, no, that's not what I mean. These are just a little thought from the base,"
The man chuckled, "You see, the weather today is very gloomy. It might rain heavily. It's dangerous to drive on a rainy day. Why don't you stay here for two more days."
Rainy days will increase some uncertainty, the visibility of vehicles will decrease, and accidents are more likely to occur. It is indeed not suitable for driving.
Jiang Hua said: "Okay, let's go after the rain is over."
"Okay okay."
The management of several bases walked out of the cafeteria.
In one of the conference rooms converted from a classroom, someone complained: "Director, why do you let them stay here for nothing? We don't even have enough food for ourselves."
"Why are you so brain-dead?" The one who was called the person in charge was the leading wood-type supernatural user from yesterday.
"Do you know how rare it is to have a lightning-type superpower? As long as he is willing to stay, do we need to worry about our supplies?"
"And the cleanly dressed experimenter next to him, maybe he can even get out the antidote for zombies."
After what he said, the dozen or so people present fell silent.
There are only a few supernatural beings in their base, each of them domineering. If there were not enough supplies in the supermarket, they would have starved to death.
And everyone in that team randomly picked one out, obviously better than their group of half-baked abilities.
One of them said: "You put it simply, people came from a big place like the North China base, would they be willing to stay in a small place like ours?"
The person in charge said: "This requires some means."
After coming out of the cafeteria, Tong Sui said: "Team Hua, I'm not going back to the dormitory, I want to go to the playground area."
Jiang Hua said: "Well, I will accompany you."
Tong Sui was a little surprised. He originally just announced, but he didn't expect Jiang Hua to take the trouble to accompany him.
From this point of view, their relationship has made great progress.
Tong Sui blossomed with joy in his heart.
Maybe when they return to the base, Jiang Hua will have a little more affection for him.
So the two walked in the direction of the playground together.
The playground was converted into cultivated farmland.
Ordinary people without supernatural powers are hunched over, using the most primitive tools to turn the soil, sow seeds, and fertilize the land.
Seeing them approaching, these people only dared to look up secretly, not daring to stop their movements.
All of them looked listless.
The workload of more than ten hours a day has exceeded the limit that normal people can bear.
The supervisor sitting on one side with his legs propped up cursed: "Everyone moves so slowly, are you lazy? Don't want to eat today?!"
He operated his own earth ability, and threw a plate-sized stone on the ground towards the head of the nearest woman in her fifties.
Just when everyone couldn't bear to see the bloody scene, a thunder fell!
"boom!"
The stone shattered into countless powders, which fluttered to the ground.
The woman who survived the catastrophe fell powerlessly to the ground, terrified.
Several thunderbolts struck around the earth-type supernatural user, and the nearest one blasted his hair.
He stood up in fright.
When he saw Jiang Hua, he was trembling all over, and the strong air pressure made him unable to speak.
"It's okay."
Tong Sui stepped forward and helped the woman who had fallen to the ground.
He looked at the earth-type supernatural user, "What can't you say? Do you know what will happen if such a big stone hits someone?"
The earth-type supernatural powers dare not make a sound.
Jiang Hua walked over directly, grabbed his collar and pushed him into the uncultivated land on the other side.
The earth-type power user fell down and was covered in mud, and he was extremely embarrassed.
Jiang Hua looked at him indifferently.
Feeling the indifference in those eyes, the earth-type supernatural being immediately rang the alarm, quickly got up and knelt down and said, "It's none of my business, I'm just a supervisor, it's because they don't work hard."
Jiang Hua said coldly: "Compared with them, you are more suitable to work in the fields."
The expression of the earth-type supernatural user changed.
Under Jiang Hua's surveillance, he turned the ground like an old scalper.
Even so, ordinary people in the field only dared to applaud in their hearts, and still dared not stop the movement of their hands.
A small figure ran over, "Brother."
Na Na was still holding a small shovel in her hand, and she rubbed a lot of dirt on her body, "What are you doing here? People with supernatural powers don't need to work."
"My brother is here to find something, how about you?"
Na Na pointed to an old woman behind and said, "I'm helping grandma."
Following her fingers, a kind old woman smiled at him. Even though she couldn't hide her tiredness, her hair was still neatly combed.
Tong Sui took Na Na's hand and walked over.
"You are the handsome brother Na Na mentioned," the old woman said, "It's a pity that they took away all our valuable jewelry. I don't know how to thank you."
The people around turned their heads.
They all originally lived in the nearby villa area and have been neighbors for decades.
After the end of the world, in order to save your life, you can only come to this safe base.
The allocated share is not enough to eat at all. Although they want to help, their strength is limited.
Until yesterday, Na Na brought back a bag of food and crystal nuclei.
Everyone got some.
They looked at Tong Sui with gratitude.
Na Na said, "Brother said he came here looking for something."
Everyone said:
"What are you looking for, we will help you find it."
"Yes, yes, we can still help with things like finding things."
Tong Sui said: "Actually, I want some seedlings and seeds of different varieties, and try to cultivate them myself."
"no problem!"
Everyone started to move without saying a word, and after a while, they collected many seeds and seedlings of different varieties.
Tong Suizai carefully wrote down every variety they mentioned.
There are common potatoes, tomatoes, and sweet potatoes, as well as some fruit seedlings.
If it can be successfully planted in the space button ring, there will be no need to worry about food in the future.
After Tong Sui thanked them, he hugged a heavy bag of things.
"Captain Hua, I can do it."
Jiang Hua turned his head and took the thing in his hand very naturally. Even though there was still some dirt on it, he held it without hesitation.
"Well, let's go."
The earth-type power user behind him was exhausted and fell to the ground gasping for breath. Excessive consumption of power also caused serious damage to the body.
Jiang Hua looked down at him coldly, "Remember your pain at this moment. If you still dare to bully others like just now, I will make you suffer ten times more than this."
The earth-type superhuman shook his head again and again, "I don't dare, I won't dare again."
The sky was gloomy as if being pressed by a heavy stone, the dark clouds were very close to the horizon, and the wind was blowing the leaves rustling, as if heavy rain would fall at any moment.
Tong Sui and the others couldn't help quickening their pace.
When they were about to return to the dormitory, heavy rain fell from the sky, slapping the ground in a hurry, splashing one after another.
Tong Sui patted the water stains on his body, and reached out to take his things.
Jiang Hua said: "Remember to take a hot bath when you go back."
"Uh-huh."
Tong Sui closed the door, his body was not very wet, and there was some mud on the hem of his trousers.
Anyway, his body was already dirty, so he thought about trying to enter the space first and plant these seedlings and seeds.
So he opened the ring of the space button, and entered the space in this ring for the first time as his heart moved.
Different from the faintly rancid air in the last days, the air in the space is slightly sweet, and the ground under your feet is soft and fertile.
As expected of a treasure that can only be obtained by the protagonist.
Tong Sui took out the small shovel he had prepared in advance, and sorted out a piece of land with ease.
He planted the seeds of different varieties separately.
After finishing all this, Tong Sui was so tired that he could hardly stand up straight.His hands were covered with mud, which was very wet and uncomfortable.
There is a meandering stream not far from here. Tong Sui walked past it, and while washing his hands, he suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a spiritual spring in this space.
He turned around in the space, and sure enough, he found the spiritual spring.
According to the original plot, the protagonist Gong is to use this spiritual spring to wash the marrow and cut down the bones, further improving the purity of the spiritual root, and even awakening the second spiritual root.
The Lingquan is crystal clear, and there is some kind of energy faintly flowing.
Tong Sui tried to pick up a handful with his hands.
The water in Lingquan is ice-cold and has a natural sweetness, much better than ordinary mountain spring water.
Apart from the slightly different taste, Tong Sui didn't feel any other difference.
It probably has no effect on ordinary people without spiritual roots.
Childhood is out of space.
Next, you just need to check the growth of the crops inside from time to time.
He picked up his clean clothes and went into the bathroom.
Hot water is poured on the body.
Tong Sui stroked the wet hair to the back of his forehead, and gradually he felt something was wrong.
A dry heat surged deep in his body, as if he had been lit on fire, burning him all over.
Tong Sui lowered the water temperature.
Even so, there is no way to fight the heat of the body.
His snow-white skin was pale pink with high heat, and a layer of greasy black dirt was expelled from his skin.
Swept by the water flow into the drain.
Tong Sui weakly supported the wet wall with his hands, every breath he exhaled was hot.
I don't know how long it took, but the layer of dirt no longer leaked out, and his originally fair and flawless skin became more delicate, rejuvenated like a newborn.
Tong Sui reached out to turn off the shower head.
He wrapped himself in a dry towel and tried to turn the excess energy in his body, but there was silence and nothing happened.
He doesn't seem to have awakened his spiritual roots?
Tong Sui got dressed and opened the bathroom door.
The room was dark.
The rain was still pouring down outside the window, as if a hole in the sky was about to drown the whole world.
He looked out, and the sky was faintly glowing with an abnormal red.
The room on the other side.
After Jiang Hua took a shower and sat down, he heard the knock on the door.
He thought of something, got up and walked over quickly.
After the door opened.
A handsome boy stood outside the door, holding snacks and tea in his hands, and his clothes were thin, "Huaduan, I made some snacks with my own hands, can I go in and chat with you?"
"inconvenient."
Jiang Hua frowned and closed the door impatiently.
The door slammed shut, and the boy outside had a cold shoulder.
"..."
Before the apocalypse, he was still an idol who relied on his face to make a living. This mixed-race man was too cold.
If it wasn't for the group of people who forced him to waive all his share of labor after the job was completed, he wouldn't want to do this kind of thing.
The boy held the tray and looked towards the next room.
If he can't take this one, he will change it.
The boy pulled down his collar again, revealing his proud collarbone, and knocked on Tongsui's door.
Jiang Hua, who had closed the door and walked back, stopped abruptly when he heard a knock on the door next door.
His hearing is excellent.
It is 100% sure that the guy outside knocked on Tong Sui's door.
Jiang Hua clicked his tongue.
In the North China base, there are many people who want to use their looks to cling to supernatural beings, and that guy's methods are too clumsy.
But will Tong Sui notice it?
The guy was so lightly dressed he wanted to take all his clothes off.
just in case
"Crunch."
He heard the sound of the next door opening.
Jiang Hua's body tensed for a moment, listening to the familiar words next door.
The raindrops outside the window crackled on the ground.
He heard Tong Sui's voice say, "Come in."
Jiang Hua's heart was instantly more chaotic than the heavy rain outside.
He paced up and down the room.
As long as he thought of the next room, the two of them were alone together, as if there were countless insects and ants eating his heart, and all the sour juice flowed out.
Jiang Hua drew out his pocket knife.
Looking at the sharp blade, the dark haze almost overwhelmed his reason for a moment.
On the other side, the boy who was put into the room by Tong Sui shuddered.
He put down the tray in his hand.
Tong Sui turned on the light in the room, and pulled a chair over for him, "Sit down."
He sat down opposite him.
Looking at his face, the boy froze for a moment.
The light was dim just now, and he only felt that the person who opened the door was very fragrant, but now he was instantly shocked when he saw it.
This is dozens of times better than all the big and small stars he has been in the entertainment industry for so long.
His skin is too well maintained, his lips are red and his teeth are white.
The boy inadvertently met Tong Sui's eyes.
Those eyes were black and white, as pure as washing, and for a moment he heard the frequency of his own abnormal heartbeat.
What on earth were the supernatural beings at the base pretending to be, to let him be so vulgar to catch people of this level.
Don't you think too highly of him?!
Tong Sui put back the glasses that he took off before taking a bath.
"What do you find me for?"
The boy blushed, not daring to look directly into his eyes, turned his head and saw the books on his desk, "Are all these books you want to read?"
"Yes." Tong Sui said: "Those are all in preparation for researching the antidote for zombies."
The boy's eyes moved slightly, and his fingers stroked the books, "Is it really possible to find an antidote?"
Tong Sui said: "Of course it is possible."
The boy turned his head, as if he had made up his mind, and said, "I came here to tell you, go back quickly after the rain. There are not many good people in the management of this base."
Tong Sui was slightly taken aback.
There was a knock on the door.
He got up to open the door.
"Captain Hua, why are you here?"
Jiang Hua stood outside the door with a dark face, not knowing what he was holding with his hands behind his back.
