    The light was on in the kitchen, and the orange light softly enveloped the large and tidy operating table.Guan Shao was standing in front of the operating table and was cutting up the wolf meat. The wolf meat without the skin and internal organs looked similar to mutton, but the taste was a bit strong.

    Smelling the smell of wolf meat, Le Le shivered under the console with his tail between his legs.Seeing the dog frightened like this, Jiang Rong was both distressed and funny: "You, honestly, wouldn't it be nice to stay with the child in the bedroom?"

    Le Le whimpered a few times in grievance, and kept rubbing her head against Jiang Rong's palm.The big eyes are full of grievance and puzzlement, it doesn't understand why there is such a terrible smell in a good house.Just by smelling it, it was too scared to stand up.

    Seeing that the fur on Gouzi's neck was blown off, Jiang Rong couldn't help thinking about his previous life.When she was at the base in her previous life, Le Le was driven by supernatural beings to hunt down mutant animals together with other mutant cats and dogs.

    How could the domesticated Hanhan be the opponent of wild survival experts?Every time it comes back, it will be stained with blood, and sometimes it will shake for several days without eating or drinking. The round dog will be scarred and emaciated within two years.

    Jiang Rong bent down and hugged Le Le in his arms. He gently stroked the dog's back, feeling the smooth and chubby feel.Fortunately, Le Le doesn't have to face such terrible things in this life: "Good boy, don't be afraid, it's dead and won't hurt you."

    Being held in the arms of the owner, Le Le opened his mouth and stuck out his tongue with a smirk.When Guan Shao looked up, he happened to see the scene of Jiang Rong hugging the dog. The gentle and gentle demeanor of the handsome young man made it hard to turn his eyes away. If it wasn't for the conditions, he really wanted to watch it for a while longer.

    Jiang Rong watched the butcher in the vegetable market cut up the meat, and the bones, dregs and blood froth flew all over the place with one knife.However, Guan Shao only used a small knife to clearly arrange the wolf meat. As the blade slid on the wolf, the wolf body was disassembled according to the parts, and the legs were neatly placed aside.In the entire kitchen, except for the occasional few words between the two, there was only the sound of blades and muscles rubbing.

    It didn't take long for the two wolves to be separated.Jiang Rong decided to keep one wolf, and share the remaining meat with Chu Qiang and Uncle Li's family: "These two hind legs are for Qiang Zi's family, and the front legs are for Uncle Li and the others. Put the rest in the refrigerator until you leave."Take it with you to eat on the road."

    Guan Shao lowered his head and looked gloomy, but said easily in his mouth: "What? You want me to leave so soon?"

    Jiang Rong smiled and said, "That's not true. You killed this wolf, and the meat is of course yours. It's been hot recently, so I'll leave it for you first."

    Only then did Guan Shao laugh: "No need."

    Jiang Rong did what he said, and he vacuumed up the other wolf and put it neatly in the freezer in the kitchen: "If conditions permit, I will make you jerky before you leave. This way it will last for a long time."Some are convenient for you and your children to eat."

    Guan Shao looked seriously at Jiang Rong's eyebrows, "Then I'll say thank you in advance."

    Jiang Rong smiled and said nothing, he was using his own method to thank Guan Shao for giving him two crystal nuclei.If it wasn't for Guan Shao, he wouldn't be able to get so many supplies tonight, let alone the crystal nucleus.

    Unexpectedly, Guan Shao would give him the crystal nucleus.Of course, it's very likely that he didn't understand the preciousness of crystal nuclei, and thought it was something that was readily available.

    No matter what, Jiang Rong will make good use of these two crystal nuclei in his hands.

    Afraid of long nights and dreams, after washing up, Jiang Rong was ready to start absorbing crystal nuclei.One of the cleaned crystal nuclei is green and shiny, and the other is crystal clear. The radiance emitted by the most beautiful gemstones in the world is less than one-thousandth of it.

    Jiang Rong decided to absorb the transparent one first. Not long after the ability was released, a warm energy overflowed from the transparent crystal nucleus.The energy flowed along the palm, and soon merged with the power in the body.

    After the ability wandered through the body for a few laps, Jiang Rong didn't find anything wrong.I don't know what type of ability the transparent crystal nucleus belongs to, but he should be able to absorb it anyway.

    After one crystal nucleus was absorbed, Jiang Rong turned his head to look at the time. It took a total of 13 minutes to absorb this time. The transparent crystal nucleus the size of a fingernail had already turned into powder, and it was light in his hand.

    Then it was the turn of the green crystal nucleus. If Jiang Rong's guess was correct, it should be a wood crystal nucleus.Just by putting it in his palm, he could feel the vigorous vitality contained in the crystal nucleus.

    As soon as the power was released, before it touched the crystal nucleus, the wood-type power inside spewed out.It quickly fused with Jiang Rong's own ability, and then rushed into Jiang Rong's body.

    The sudden increase in wood-type abilities made the meridians a little painful, but compared to the time when he absorbed the mutated ant crystal nucleus, the pain this time was basically negligible.With all the supernatural powers pouring in, Jiang Rong heard a small clicking sound coming from his body.

    His complexion changed, what's the matter?Why did his meridians split again?Is the last tragedy going to repeat itself?

    However, the expected pain did not come. On the contrary, he felt his body was very relaxed, even more comfortable than the last time he had survived the pain.He didn't know how to describe this feeling. He felt that his meridians had widened a lot, but his body didn't get bigger.

    With the power flowing in his body, Jiang Rong felt his body light and light.When he opened his eyes, the green crystal nuclei in his palm had turned into off-white powder, and only two minutes had passed.

    It seems that absorbing the suitable crystal nucleus is not only comfortable, but also takes a short time.In a critical moment, this is a life-saving weapon.

    No wonder the supernatural beings were so obsessed with finding crystal nuclei in their previous lives. Even if the collected crystal nuclei were not suitable for their own use, it didn’t matter. If other supernatural beings had suitable crystal nuclei in their hands, they could exchange them.

    Feeling the flow of supernatural powers in his body, Jiang Rong's eyes were full of longing.

    After the great crisis, social resources were reorganized, and the natural law of the weak and the strong was nakedly displayed in front of everyone.As an ordinary person in his previous life, he had seen too many tragedies and deeply understood how helpless people at the bottom of society were.

    From the first day of his rebirth, all his planning and calculations were aimed at surviving the big crisis.Before the awakening day, he just wanted to live a peaceful and safe life with his son in his hometown.

    But now the situation has developed beyond his expectations.

    The gear of fate changed, and he became a wood-type supernatural being.If he just wanted to use this ability to grow vegetables after the big crisis, after becoming a second-level ability user, his goal has changed: he wants to become stronger.

    The greater the ability, the more attention you receive, and the more uncontrollable things around you.Only when you become stronger can you deal with all kinds of emergencies.

    He not only wants to become stronger alone, but also wants to make the people around him stronger.Only a strong alliance can gain the upper hand after a major crisis.

    It was supposed to be bedtime, but Jiang Rong turned over and sat beside the bed.He took out a small book from the bedside table, and as the nib of the pen rubbed against the paper, an unprecedented bold plan slowly emerged on the paper.

    Jiang Rong got up late the next day because he wrote things too late.When he opened the bedroom door, he found that something seemed to have changed at home.But for a while, he couldn't tell what the difference was.

    Seeing him coming out of the bedroom door, Jiang Xiaoheng rushed over happily: "Daddy, good morning~"

    Jiang Rong skillfully picked up his son and rubbed his head: "Good morning, did you sleep well yesterday?"

    Jiang Xiaoheng smiled and showed his white teeth: "My little brother and I went to bed at ten o'clock yesterday, and we slept very well. Just now we ate porridge and fried eggs, and Uncle Guan made them~"

    Jiang Rong was stunned for a moment, he had fallen into such a deep sleep that Guan Shao didn't even notice when he got up to make breakfast.During this period of time, did Guan Shao appear to check the house?

    However, his house is not so easy to check. The two doors leading to the underground are heavily insured and alarmed, and it is impossible to go quietly.

    Jiang Rong put his son on the ground: "Where are uncle and little brother?"

    Jiang Xiaoheng pointed to the outside of the house: "They are cleaning the glass."

    Jiang Rong:???

    Guan Shao was wiping the thick bulletproof glass under the east courtyard wall. It rained a few days ago, and the glass was covered with a layer of stains.When Jiang Rong passed by, he saw Guan Shao stepping on the window sill and wiping with a rag in his hand.

    Jiang Hao was standing under the window sill with a small bucket in his hand. Hearing Jiang Rong's footsteps, the child turned his head slowly.He winked at Jiang Rong, which was regarded as a greeting.

    After spending a few days with Jiang Hao, Jiang Rong already had some understanding of the child's behavior pattern.He nodded with a smile, and reached out to take the small bucket in Jiang Hao's hand: "Give it to me, you carry it hard."

    Jiang Hao's dark eyes reflected Jiang Rong's face. After hearing what Jiang Rong said, he nodded lightly, then slowly let go of his hand and took a step back.

    Seeing Jiang Hao, Jiang Rong inexplicably thought of a cartoon about animals that he had seen before, in which there was a slow-moving sloth.Whether Jiang Hao is thinking or acting, he is very much like that sloth.

    When most people see Jiang Hao, they will dislike him for his slow response.However, Jiang Rong felt that he was a good boy. Apart from not being able to speak and reacting slightly slowly, this boy was actually a polite boy.

    The shadow of the courtyard wall fell on Guan Shao's waist, and Guan Shao, who was wearing a tight T-shirt, was split in half by the light and shadow.Below the waist, two long legs were shoulder-width apart and stood firmly on the narrow window sill.From the waist up, thin beads of sweat dripped from the bronze-colored skin, leaving a few dark spots on the T-shirt.

    It has to be said that good-looking people can do everything pleasing to the eye.Jiang Rong stood with his arms folded and watched carefully the picture of the handsome man cleaning the window, the corners of his lips slightly raised.

    After wiping a piece of glass, Guan Shao jumped off the windowsill: "Morning."

    Jiang Rong smiled and said, "Morning, you are too diligent." Guan Shao must be a clean freak, the windows he wiped did not even have any water stains, every piece of glass was clean, and people could see clearlyFace.

    After folding the dry rags, Guan Shao casually took the small bucket in Jiang Rong's hand, "The windows at home are all wiped, and breakfast is ready. After you finish breakfast, we'll go deliver wolf meat together."

    After Guan Shao walked forward with his long legs, Jiang Rong looked at his back with complicated eyes.

    Just now he watched the surveillance at home and checked all the actions of Guan Shao after he woke up.

    As soon as Guan Shao woke up, he started the sweeper at home, and then went straight to the kitchen to make breakfast.After taking care of the two children and having breakfast, he also packed up the children's picture books and toys, and then went out with a bucket to clean the windows.For more than two hours, he has been busy without stopping.

    When watching the surveillance, Jiang Rong almost knelt down to Guan Shao, wondering if he had picked up a snail boy back.He felt that he was already the kind of man who loves cleanliness, but Guan Shao was even more clean-loving than him, even reaching the level of cleanliness.

    When Mingming met for the first time, he was still a nimble fitness guru, but now he has transformed into a decathlon house husband.

    The contrast is too great.

    After breakfast, Jiang Rong took Guan Shao out, both of them dragging a small trailer.On Jiang Rong's trailer were two large foam boxes containing wolf meat chilled in ice packs.The temperature is high now, if we don't use ice packs, the wolf meat will soon stink.Guan Shao's trailer was stocked with rice, flour, grain and oil. Although there were not many things, they could feed Uncle Li and his wife for a while.

    At □□ in the morning, when the temperature soared, Guan Shao's clothes were wet with sweat as he walked along the kudzu trail.Jiang Rong stopped and greeted him: "Have a few sips of water?"

    Guan Shao took the children's water bottle from his waist and handed it to Jiang Rong: "Here."

    Jiang Rong shook his head: "I'm not thirsty, you can drink."

    After the black rain, the water and soil are polluted, and people can easily get sick after drinking the polluted water.The water in Jiang Rong's house is ground water, and a filter is installed in the house, so the water is clear and sweet.

    Guan Shao was indeed thirsty, he held up the kettle and filled a small half glass of water in one go.Seeing him drinking water, Jiang Rong couldn't help but think: What if such a person is in the wild?Without clean water, Guan Shao will be dehydrated soon, right?

    But not necessarily, there are still people with water abilities in this world.With Guan Shao's ability, he will definitely be able to form a strong team after the big crisis, and it will not be difficult to recruit one or two people with water abilities.

    Seeing the sweat running down Guan Shao's neck, Jiang Rong thought about it. He couldn't help but think of the plan he wrote in his notebook last night: recruit mutants and build a small base.

    Isn't Guan Shao a ready-made mutant?Moreover, his ability is still only one of the 100,000 mutants of the thunder system ability, which is much stronger than other abilities.If he can stay, wouldn't it be a powerful help?

    After thinking about this, Jiang Rong tentatively asked, "Guan Shao, where are you going after you bring Jiang Hao back from the base?"

    Guan Shao closed the lid of the kettle, with a dazed look in his eyes: "I haven't figured it out yet. But I have to meet up with my teammates first. It's too dangerous to go it alone these days."

    Jiang Rong nodded slightly: "Yes. So many people will go to the base. The bigger the base, the better the treatment for the supernatural beings."

    Although Guan Shao had told him before, he would not stay at the base.Jiang Rong interpreted this sentence as: He will not stay in the peace base.

    The peace base is a small and medium-sized base among the bases, and its scale and treatment are far inferior to other large bases.For a strong man like Guan Shao, Heping Base is not worth his refuge. Maybe he will consider other bases?

    Guan Shao silently glanced at Jiang Rong, and for a moment, Jiang Rong felt that he had seen through his thoughts.The atmosphere fell into an eerie silence. Fortunately, a gust of hot wind blew past, and Guan Shao only spoke at this time.There was an imperceptible grievance in his voice: "Do you want me to leave earlier?"

    Jiang Rong's pupils suddenly dilated: "Huh?"

    Guan Shao lowered his eyes: "You have already asked me twice, and you mentioned the base both times..."

    Jiang Rong quickly explained: "No, no, I didn't mean that. I just want to remind you that the base doesn't do charity. Whether it's an ordinary person or a supernatural person, it's hard to get out after entering. I hope you can be careful.Think about it, find a good place, and don't be fooled by people who don't know the situation and go there."

    Guan Shao raised his eyes to meet Jiang Rong's eyes, and the corners of his lips curled up beautifully: "Well, I will consider it carefully. Thank you for your reminder."

    Jiang Rong felt annoyed in his heart, he shouldn't be so impatient.

    Just as Jiang Rong was walking forward with his head down, he heard Guan Shao mutter something in a low voice.However, the voice was so soft that he couldn't hear it clearly.

    When the two came to the orchard, Uncle Li and Aunt Li were carrying things under the high temperature.They put the things in the shack on the tricycle, and when they saw Jiang Rong coming, the old couple were surprised: "Xiao Rong, why are you here?"

    Jiang Rong moved the things from the small trailer to the second old car: "I'll bring you some food."

    Li Xiaojun's departure dealt a heavy blow to the second elder, and after one night, the second elder became much older.Without waiting for the elders to decline, Jiang Rong asked, "Are you going to move?"

    Speaking of this, Uncle Li sighed: "We have a wolf scene here. Your aunt and I heard the howling of wolves last night. Better to be safe than sorry, we will move to live in the village from today on."

    Is it okay if there are wolves haunting the mountains?Wolves are difficult to deal with before they mutate, let alone mutated wolves.Their old bones can't stand the wolves at all, they should live in the concrete house honestly, and run around more diligently.

    Uncle Li and Aunt Li were packing up at dawn. They ran several times, and now only some farm tools are left in the shack.

    Jiang Rong thought, could it be that the wolf howling that Uncle Li and the others heard was the wolf howling when they ambushed Li Xiaojun yesterday?Before he could ask, Guan Shao said, "Uncle, when did you hear the howling of wolves? Does it feel far away?"

    Uncle Li looked at Guan Shao: "This is..."

    Jiang Rong hurriedly introduced, "This is Guan Shao, my friend."

    Uncle Li nodded again and again: "Oh, there was a commotion at two or three o'clock in the middle of the night yesterday. The wolf's howling was very close, and it felt like it was nearby. My wife and I tightly covered the tiger's mouth, for fear that it would bark.The wolf is coming."

    Thinking of the horrible scene in the early morning of this morning, Aunt Li was still horrified: "Xiao Rong, you don't know, the howling of wolves is too penetrating."

    Jiang Rong frowned, two or three o'clock, isn't that when they go home to dispose of the wolf carcasses?The mountain where Li Xiaojun was ambushed was several miles away from his home. If the wolves were howling near the ambush site, they should not have heard them.

    The wolf is a very united animal. When dragging the wolf's body back yesterday, the two of them thought that the wolves might turn back to find the two wolves.The two brought back the wolf carcasses because they were reluctant to part with the meat, and wanted to test whether the pack of wolves would continue to go north or regard the nearby hills as their territory.

    It now appears that the wolves raised by humans do not want to leave for the time being.The wolves followed the smell and found the neighborhood of his house. It was only because the sound insulation of his house was so good that the whole family didn't hear the wolves howling.

    Jiang Rong turned his head and looked at Guan Shao, both of them saw the same emotion in each other's eyes: a battle with the wolves was inevitable.

    In addition to delivering food to Uncle Li and Aunt Li, the two also went to Chu Qiang's house.

    The two of them arrived at the village on the tricycle of Uncle Li and Aunt Li, and when they entered the village, the depressed atmosphere came to them.When came to the village before, there were cars parked at the door of every household in the village, but now the doors of every house are closed, and the car has disappeared.

    Not surprisingly, not all households in Murakami have wells.After the black rain, people who did not drill wells had no way to survive, so they had to organize a group to go to a nearby base to survive.

    Seeing the originally bustling village become like this, Uncle Li and Aunt Li could only sigh in disappointment.

    Uncle Chu and the two were huddled on the first floor, blowing on the electric fan. Seeing Jiang Rong and the other, they hurriedly came out of the room: "Xiao Rong is here? Come in and cool off."

    After introducing Guan Shao to the Chu family, Jiang Rong explained his purpose: "I brought you some meat for your health."

    Aunt Chu didn't want to pick them up at first, but Jiang Rong kept delivering meat and food to them during this time, and the family felt very sorry.However, the health of the family has not been good for the past two days, especially Wang Chunlan's mother and daughter, who have been sluggish and lack of energy for the past few days. It would be great to eat some meat to strengthen their physique.

    Jiang Rong turned around but did not see Chu Qiang, "Where is Qiang Zi?"

    Uncle Chu said: "I'm going to the north. There is smoke coming out of the north this morning. I'm afraid there will be a wildfire in the dry weather. Qiang Zi and a few people from the village will go and have a look."

    A car horn sounded from outside the speaking room, and a black car appeared at the gate of the courtyard. After the door opened, Chu Qiang quickly walked out of the car.When he saw Jiang Rong's face, Chu Qiang scratched his cheek in doubt, as if he had seen a ghost: "Huh?"

    Jiang Rong was puzzled: "What's wrong? Why this expression?"

    Chu Qiang muttered: "I haven't seen Xiaojiang for a few days, why are you getting more and more beautiful?"

    Jiang Rong chuckled twice and shook his fist at him: "I think it's true that you are getting more and more in need of a beating."

    Chu Qiang took a few steps in the direction of Jiang Rong: "I'm not wrong, you let my mother see. Mom, do you think Xiaojiang is white and..." Before he finished speaking, Chu Qiang's eyes suddenly went straight.He slapped his thigh suddenly: "Damn it? Am I dazzled? It's critical!"

    Jiang Rong looked back at Guan Shao in doubt, "You two know each other?"

    Guan Shao lowered his voice and said quickly: "I once competed in Chenggang Gym."

    Chu Qiang wanted to run over quickly, but after taking two steps, he felt something was wrong, "No, no, I must be hallucinating due to the heat. Mom, make me a glass of salt soda, I'm suffering from heat stroke."

    Jiang Rong sighed and supported his forehead, when will he not be so naive when he is so young?

    After confirming that Guan Shao was a real person, Chu Qiang was very excited. He pulled Jiang Rong and introduced him, "He is the great god I told you about. Do you still remember?"

    Jiang Rong held the salt soda in his hands and said calmly, "The great god you told me has eighty if not one hundred. How do I know which one you are talking about?"

    Chu Qiang said seriously: "Of course it's the strongest one. Didn't I tell you? We did a trick in the gym, and he threw me eighteen times."

    Jiang Rong: ...

    How could Chu Qiang have the nerve to say such a shameful thing?

    Afraid that Fa Xiao would continue to be stupid, Jiang Rong said slowly, "By the way, is there a mountain fire in the north?"

    Speaking of this, the excitement on Chu Qiang's face turned dull: "Two cars behind Niupankou hit the roadside and caught fire, and everyone inside was gone."

    Jiang Rong paused: "How many people are there?"

    Chu Qiang frowned and shook his head: "I can't tell, it's all turned into carbon." The situation in the car was too tragic, so Chu Qiang took a moment to add: "I suspect they should be attacked by mutated animals, did you not see it?"The wound on the car door looks like it was pulled by Wolverine's claws."

    These words confused Jiang Rong, don't wolves attack with their teeth?How could there be claw marks?Could it be that one of the wolves in the wolf pack has mutated?

    After thinking for a moment, Chu Qiang said, "Xiaojiang, I suspect that the animal that attacked them was a wolf."

    Jiang Rong's heart tightened: "Did you see a wolf nearby?"

    Chu Qiang waved his hand: "No, no, no wolves come out during the day. Listen to me, I heard wolves howling nearby this morning, and it sounds like there are quite a few of them. If it wasn't them who did it, who else would do it?"Xiaojiang, you have to be more careful, don’t go out after dark, and keep the doors and windows closed. The mutant animals are very tough now, even a mutant wasp is almost killing people, let alone a mutant wolf.Those with thin arms and legs, don't fight them hard, just hide if you can."

    Jiang Rong nodded: "I see." After returning, he had to find a way to lure out the pack of wolves and try to catch them all.

    At this time, Aunt Chu walked to the door of the room with the foam box in her arms. She asked suspiciously, "Xiao Rong, what kind of meat did you send? It doesn't look like mutton."

    Jiang Rong put down the water glass and said warmly, "Mutated wolf meat."

    Chu Qiang: ...
