"Is that so? But you are younger than your brother." Lu Qing smiled and stretched out her hand to touch her sister's head.
The younger sister pursed her nose cutely, but did not avoid Lu Qing's palm. She just said with some dissatisfaction: "He is just a childish ghost. Now is not the time to play at all."
Lu Qing was slightly stunned when she heard her sister's words. Although she guessed the other person's precocity, she didn't expect that her sister had matured to such an extent.
Is it due to personality, or is it due to the influence of the surrounding environment?
Lu Qing didn't know, she just felt a little distressed. Although this was just a dream, even if she was playing a game, she would pity an NPC because of the plot in the game, let alone the more real sister in front of her.
.
Of course, these emotions will not affect her decision-making. For Lu Qing, the most important thing is always the main goal.
If giving up her family meant she could escape from the dark forest, she wouldn't hesitate.
As for early maturity, this is not a bad thing. At least in many cases, smart children are always more troublesome than dumb ones.
Moreover, the precocious sister should know more things. Lu Qing thought for a while and asked: "I need to go out to look for food tomorrow. Do you know what dangers there are outside? Let me see if I have missed anything."
thing."
"I heard my father say that there are many mutated animals and plants outside. These creatures will attack directly when they see unmutated creatures. Some of the mutated animals still rely on eating plants, while others
Completely turned into a carnivore."
"But even if it is mutated, it can still be killed with the tools at hand. This is how my father used to hunt in the wild."
"One more thing you must pay attention to is that you must return home before night, because at night, there will be a blood-red fog monster that attacks passing creatures. These fogs are very scary and only take a few seconds.
A bell can swallow up an entire living thing."
[Your sister didn’t seem surprised by your inquiry. She clearly stated the things that need to be paid attention to in the dark forest. Although it is strange for her to have such a clear and calm mind at her age, what she said
, but they are all true and there are no lies.】
The notice board trembled, and a message was refreshed in the diary after a long absence.
If you ignore the strange description of my sister in the diary, then this message can be said to be relatively good news.
Because the diary says that everything my sister said is true, this means that there are indeed mutated animals and plants in the wild, and they are not very powerful in combat. Even an ordinary adult with a weapon in his hand can
You can hunt.
Of course, experience is definitely needed here. The father in the dream was an experienced hunter who had been hunting for many years before the village was surrounded by the forest.
Lu Qing only had a wooden spear that she had roughly processed by herself. To be honest, whether this thing could be used or not was still a question.
Although she thought it was completely OK, who knew if she would be in the embarrassing situation of throwing the wooden spear out, only to find that she could not penetrate the enemy's armor?
Lu Qing: Report, enemy target found!
Wooden Spear: Ready, apply for launch!
Lu Qing: Launch permission, three, two, one, launch!
Wooden Spear: Report, we failed to penetrate the enemy's armor!
Lu Qing: There is no other way. It seems that I have to do it myself. Look at me rushing up and making a shovel...
"Ahem..."
Throwing away all the strange thoughts, Lu Qing looked at her sister, and suddenly thought of a strange place, and said:
"Since the blood mist moves at night and attacks all living things, why doesn't it attack people hiding in houses?"
"Because of the gas stove." My sister replied calmly.
"Gas stove?"
"Yes, gas stove." The younger sister nodded, and then said: "Those mutated monsters hate the smell of gas stove burning, especially the blood mist. That guy is not short of food, so as long as he runs to the range covered by the gas stove
Within, it will leave."
"Where is our gas stove?" Lu Qing asked.
She had clearly walked around the house carefully before, but she had never seen anything similar to a gas stove.
"..."
The younger sister was silent. She looked at Lu Qing quietly. The ice-blue eyes of the same style looked at her calmly. Being stared at by such a pair of eyes, for some reason, Lu Qing couldn't help but feel a little weird in her heart.
feel.
It was as if the person looking at her was herself...
This feeling disappeared in an instant, and Lu Qing also realized at this time that it was inappropriate for her to ask this question.
As the eldest daughter in the family, she doesn't know things that her younger sister knows. It's strange no matter how you think about it. Before, she used the excuse that she was afraid that she would miss something to ask for information related to the outside world, and the gas stove is so important.
Do you think she has forgotten it?
The younger sister held the bear doll and silently took a step back. Then she slowly closed the wooden door. When it was about to be completely closed, she revealed one eye and said:
"The gas furnace is in the basement, and there is a generator there, but it is out of service now."
"The entrance to the basement is in mom's room, but it's hidden. Mom forbids us from going to the basement because the burning gas furnace is dangerous."
"Crunch..."
The wooden door slowly closed. Lu Qing looked at the closed wooden door and helplessly stretched out her fingers to shave her face.
She felt as if she had been alerted by her younger sister. Precocious children are prone to overthinking. She hoped that she would not be regarded by her younger sister as a stranger who had replaced her older sister.
Shaking her head, Lu Qing went to the living room to chat with her mother before leaving her sister's room.
As soon as Lu Qing came to the living room, she saw her mother who was adding firewood to the stove.
This suddenly made Lu Qing think of a question. A stove needs fuel to burn. It makes no sense that a gas stove does not need fuel to burn. Then the question is, what is the fuel for a gas stove?
What exactly is the smell released after burning that disgusts monsters?
Where does the fuel at home come from? How many days can the fuel last? If the fuel runs out, will the blood tide from outside rush into their home?
"Aqing?"
Lu Qing came back to her senses when her mother's voice came to her ears, and looked at her mother who was looking at her with concern. A lot of questions came to her mind, but she couldn't think of how to ask them.
"Uh, I'm here." Lu Qing replied.
"You must be tired from going out to look for water. Sit down and have a good rest. Well..." Mother looked at Lu Qing with a concerned look, as if she could see heartache in her eyes.
As if she had made up her mind, her mother thought for a while and then slowly said: "Actually, there is a lot of food in the basement, so you don't need to go out and take risks."
"Is there still food in the basement?" Lu Qing frowned, feeling a little strange.
ps: I logged into Writer Assistant today and found that Chapter 140 had been blocked, which made me feel numb. After some revisions, it has now been released.
The recent plot writing has really given me a headache, and that’s where I’m at right now.
Brain: The outline is like this, the plot is like this, and the next step is to write like this...
hand:???
So writing has been very slow recently and there have been few updates. I would like to apologize to everyone here. I really want to finish this volume, and to be honest, I am unwilling to give in.
I think what I wrote is okay, but the results are different from what I thought. I am really unwilling, so I must write this volume well.
I believe that as long as my writing is good enough, someone will read it!
Without further ado, I would like to thank everyone who sees this for their support. Your support is my biggest motivation. Thank you for your hard work!
