If someone had told Lin Sanjiu a day ago, no, even half an hour ago, that she would be buried alive, she would have just sneered and called out [Tornado Whip]——
But now, she is holding a number plate with the number 49 in her hand, sitting on the edge of the rooftop of a building, her legs dangling in the air, quietly waiting for the moment to be "buried alive".
After chasing the Land Rover and running out of the community, she quickly lost track of Xiao Wu; she tentatively walked forward for an unknown distance, but when she turned back, she could no longer see the residents in that area.
District.
This point just slipped through her mind in a hurry. Lin Sanjiu only glanced at it and quickly turned back, her eyes firmly fixed on the front not far away - her attention was completely absorbed by everything in front of her.
Caught.
The desolate urban ruins, even the traces of roads, have been swallowed up by the comeback of nature. Weeds poked out from the cracks of broken bricks, broken wires hung from the holes-ridden buildings, and the cold wind blew from
Passed through the hole-like window.
The sky in the early morning has gradually turned white. Under the blue-white skylight, the world that has lost traces of human activities looks quiet and bleak, just like the many apocalyptic worlds that Lin Sanjiu has experienced. There is nothing strange about it.
of.
If it were not a place that was incompatible with this doomsday scene.
"That...that's..." Ji Shanqing still wrapped his hands around her neck, lying on her back and murmured, "Where is that place?"
"Come down first." Lin Sanjiu peeled him off her back. After taking a breath, she glanced into the distance again, and then said with a bit of uncertainty: "Here... probably
A copy, right?”
...If it is really a copy, then this place is a bit too ostentatious.
If everything in front of us is like a poster, then far ahead, behind several broken and collapsed buildings, someone has torn off a corner of this painting - and then another one is torn off.
A corner of the picture with a completely different style is posted.
The gray and lifeless remains of human buildings collapsed together like an overturned chess piece. The black traces left by the flames and smoke spread out among the yellow grass-until a piece of green and verdant land.
The grass suddenly and abruptly took over the next space.
Behind the grassland, a piece of land that had obviously been carefully tended looked as if it was sparkling and fresh under the sky; the land had been turned into neat strips, with several sticks sticking out at regular intervals.
The green shoots are here - even though all the food in the world that is exposed to the air is no longer edible, this place still clearly looks like a farmland.
It wasn't until Lin Sanjiu walked up to her that she realized that the farmland occupies a very large area. At a glance, it was almost impossible to see where it ended; only the viaduct that faded into ink in the far distance on the horizon was still showing the sign.
This was still a human city.
"...It's like I'm dreaming." Ji Shanqing muttered in a low voice.
Lin Sanjiu didn't answer. He approached with some caution.
Someone had opened a narrow path in the farmland. The two of them looked along the path and soon landed in front of a clean and white hut. Lin Sanjiu squinted at a wooden sign erected in front of it.
She saw "Harry's Farm" written in several characters on it - she took a breath, turned back to the gift bag and said: "It's indeed a copy, it's really a copy."
Only dungeons can take such considerate care of visitors from different worlds.
"A copy," Ji Shanqing looked at the double-story wooden house painted milky white, with a look of nostalgia on his face, as if he felt that everything was very friendly: "...Shall we go in?"
"Of course we won't enter," Lin Sanjiu was startled by him, and turned around and waved to him as if chasing a duck, "...there is nothing unusual in this land, which means we haven't officially entered the dungeon yet, hurry up
Let’s go now—”
"Are you sure, young lady?"
Before he finished speaking, a rich male voice suddenly sounded from behind.
Does this trigger a copy? We haven’t entered it yet...
Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but sigh inwardly and turned her head away - perhaps due to her unstable mental state, her potential was also damaged, so she didn't even notice that someone walked out of the hut behind her.
people.
The person who came was about forty years old, with rosy cheeks, wearing a denim shirt and a scarf at the collar. In both appearance and dress, he looked like a very standard American southern farmer - leaning on the railing with his arms.
, this farmer, who was probably Harry, smiled and said to the two of them: "...Miss, you can leave anytime you want, but if you don't listen to what I have to say, you will miss out on good things."
Lin Sanjiu raised an eyebrow, and even though she said "Oh?", she took several steps back.
"Wait, don't leave yet, look." Harry shouted quickly, then walked out of the house and turned the wooden sign in one direction. The exposed back was densely carved with rows and rows of small characters: "...
After reading this, you will know why you should not leave."
"...Hari Farm, the gospel of mankind, the Noah's Ark of evolution." Ji Shanqing stretched his neck to read the wooden sign and read softly: "Hari Farm provides you with a shelter. It is your
The most reliable partner in the wind and rain. Have you met an enemy in the apocalypse? Come here, we cover your whereabouts; do you have no place to live in the apocalypse? Come here, we have prepared a bed for you to rest; if you encounter
Got a food shortage? Come—"
"Wait, there's a food shortage?" Lin Sanjiu immediately interrupted the long advertisement.
To be honest, maybe it was because going crazy consumed too much energy, but she actually had a faint feeling of hunger in her stomach for a long time - she didn't think it was serious at first, but after being reminded like this, she realized that she was walking out of Harry's farm cabin.
The faint aroma of food exuded waves, which really made her eyes turn a little green.
"Come here, we will provide you with safe and healthy nutrients." Harry nodded with a smile and continued what Ji Shanqing had not finished. "That's right - here, you don't have to worry about food."
Lin Sanjiu snorted, feeling that the other party probably really took him for a fool.
"Since this is not a mandatory dungeon, let's leave now." Lin Sanjiu had suffered enough from the dungeon, so she didn't pay attention to Harry behind her, and just pulled Ji Shanqing up and walked.
Walk.
"Hey, wait, why don't you believe me?" Harry raised his voice as if he was a little anxious, "How good I am at writing - Hey, hey! Are you walking too fast?"
Lin Sanjiu walked quickly. After a while, she was far away from the copy of Harry's farm. Farmer Harry's voice became smaller and smaller. Finally, it almost became an echo floating in the sky: "...I'm so hungry."
If it doesn’t work, I welcome you back at any time——”
Ji Shanqing didn't come back to his senses until the farm was completely out of sight.
"Sister, don't you really want to ask carefully?" he asked carefully. "After all, it is a copy..."
"Just because it's a dungeon, I can't trust him." Lin Sanjiu interrupted him abruptly. He didn't seem to think that the gift bag's hometown was also a dungeon: "...Based on my experience in so many apocalyptic worlds, I don't believe I can still do it.
Starved to death."
When she said this, she actually felt quite confident - after all, she had never used her [Nostradamus Card] since she came to the "Vegetarian World".
Since the [Nostradamus Card] can absorb a small range of doomsday factors, wouldn't it be enough to absorb all the "crypt particles" contaminated on the surface of the food?
Lin Sanjiu felt that this theory was very feasible. After finding a hidden place to rest, he quickly ordered a pack of butter-roasted mutton patties brought from Red Nautilus.
The roasted mutton patties that had just been removed from the card immediately showed the state they had just come out of the oven at the moment before they were turned into cards - in the steaming heat, the aroma of oil mixed with garlic, chopped green onion, cumin and strong flavor.
It has a rich milk flavor and golden pastry. Not to mention the gift pack, even the characters she imagined crouched down while staring at the scones.
After the small battery number on the [Nostradamus Card] reached 1.5% and stopped growing, Lin Sanjiu immediately grabbed a corner of the scone and stuffed it into his mouth——
"Wait!" Ji Shanqing blinked fiercely, as if he thought of something and suddenly rushed forward, holding the hot cake in his hand. Facing Lin Sanjiu's eyes, he hurriedly explained
: "Sister, doesn't your absorption process also take place in the air? To be on the safe side, try absorbing it again to see if it's still there -"
What he said was not unreasonable - holding back the drool in his mouth, Lin Sanjiu used the "Nostradamus Card" to swipe the scone again.
The result this time almost made her drop the cake in her hand in shock - she had only absorbed 1.5% of the crypt particles just now, but this time for some unknown reason, the number suddenly jumped to 4.5%.
"Ah...it seems to be more serious than I thought." Ji Shanqing stared at the numbers and couldn't help but feel a little stupid; after thinking about it, he suddenly sighed heavily: "...even if all the previous particles are absorbed.
, is useless. The food itself is exposed to the air. Unless you can purify it in a vacuum environment, there is no way to prevent secondary pollution. And among other things, a small area of clean space without burrowing particles,
The atmosphere here immediately became a 'low-lying area', and more underground particles were attracted and flowed over..."
After trying a few more times without giving up, Lin Sanjiu finally discovered helplessly that what the gift package said was correct. In fact, there was no need to use the [Nostradamus Card] check at all. He only needed to turn the food into a card again, and the card
The title will change from "Ah Chong's Butter Mutton Patties" to "Contaminated Butter Mutton Patties"——
As for the sealed food they found in supermarkets and private houses, it was even less helpful. Although the food inside was sealed from the air, it was impossible for Lin Sanjiu to eat it together with the plastic bags and aluminum cans.
After wandering around the deserted city for several days, Lin Sanjiu, who didn't dare to break his teeth at all, finally couldn't stand it any longer.
In order to maintain her abilities and physical strength, she consumes a lot of energy every day; not to mention that she has met several fallen species and been involved in several battles during this period - although her current condition is still manageable, but
The problem of food and drinking water is like a heavy dark cloud, weighing down a little heavier every day.
Without food and water, Lin Sanjiu's skin dried up at a speed visible to the naked eye, and her muscles and fat decomposed rapidly, gradually revealing the outline of her skinny bones.
In a morning that was no different from usual, when Lin Sanjiu opened her eyes and found that the world was still dark for several seconds, she finally sighed and made up her mind.
"Let's go," she told Ji Shanqing in a hoarse voice: "...let's go to Harry Farm."
Just in case, the two of them had already written down the location of Harry's farm when they left. Therefore, during the search all the way back, except for Lin Sanjiu, who walked a little slowly due to lack of physical strength, the rest of the people
It went well too.
Farmer Harry didn't seem surprised to see Lin Sanjiu again.
Although he had long expected that they would come back, he did not show an expression of "What did I say?", but enthusiastically welcomed the two of them in - even if it took a while for him to take every step.
, Lin Sanjiu still stopped cautiously before entering the house.
"Food all over the world is so contaminated that it's inedible, even if it's newly grown." She held Ji Shanqing's arm, feeling like she couldn't even speak, "...you are.
Explain why you still have something to eat here?"
"Oh," the rosy-faced farmer scratched his scalp under the brim of his hat, "...I never said I had anything to eat."
"What? You obviously-"
"No, no, miss, don't get me wrong." Harry smiled and reassured, "What I can provide you with here is the nutrients you need for life - this is different from food."
"What's the meaning?"
"It is true that everything exposed to the surface and the air will be polluted, but under the layers of fertile soil, it is still clean." Harry said honestly: "I think you misunderstood the word farm when you saw it.
, I thought what I was growing was vegetables or grain—but in fact, what I was growing was people.”
...Even Ji Shanqing, who has always been smart, didn't understand it at all.
"In this copy, you will be lucky enough to become a plant in the hands of a farmer - drawing nutrients from the deepest soil. The moment you completely break through the soil and grow into a child, you will be a person full of vitality and energy.
Every time I go through such a planting and harvesting period, I can maintain my energy for at least a month." As Harry said, he took out a number plate from his trouser pocket and handed it to Lin Sanjiu: "Here...
...Every seed needs my careful care when it is planted, so if you want to be planted into the ground, you have to queue up... There are seven people in front of you. Wait another week and it will be your turn.
"
Lin Sanjiu felt that the look on her face at this time must be very ugly - but after hesitating for a few seconds, she finally took the number plate. (To be continued.)
