Chapter 36
Chen Rui looked at the strange leaf in the young man's hand, his eyes twitched and he said, "This thing is really edible, it's a mutated fruit, and it looks really strange."
On the weekend, he took the leaf and looked left and right, and said: "I don't know what it is, it should be edible, right? Fuqiu. Fuqiu never finds things that can't be eaten, let alone it went crazy this time. Generally, it must be a good thing if you want to eat it, but this fruit looks really strange. Since you found the fur ball, I will give you a bite first..."
After the weekend finished speaking, he immediately broke the thick leaf that was as big as an adult's palm into two halves, and the fruity fragrance overflowed from his hands. Zhou Zhou and Chen Rui both looked at it. It was really a mutated fruit. This fruit mutated. It's too thorough, and it's completely in line with the leaves.
"Taste the fur ball," weekend handed half of it to the fur ball with a face that wanted to eat. Block, compared to the small mouth of the fur ball.
Seeing that the hair ball was biting crunchy, the fruity fragrance wafted between the two of them, I couldn't help but wash the half of the leaf fruit while the water system was circulating, took a big bite on the weekend, and handed the rest to the person next to me President, this mutated fruit is even more crispy with a mouthful of sweet juice, and the fruit also has an ice-cold effect. It is crisp, refreshing, sweet and delicious, and it tastes countless times better than the mutated watermelon.
Weekend and Chen Rui looked at each other, and then Weekend immediately said: "Pick it, pick it up, pick it all up, these fruits are so delicious, they are all ours, all of them are ours..."
Facing the thoughts of the weekend, Chen Rui seemed much calmer. He hadn't been eaten into a mush by the mutant fruit yet.The mutated fruit of this tree has the taste of jujube. Before the mutation, it was probably a jujube tree. Such a tall tree should have mutated and grown after the end of the world. Of course, its value is more than just this batch of fruits. If the tree can be preserved, it will be worth it. The value of a tree in the last days cannot be calculated by money.
But it is not easy to save the tree. First of all, the fur ball should not be exposed. Otherwise, if the fur ball is found to be taken away by someone with a heart, the young people around him will be very sad. Chen Rui began to think of a way, which can If the tree is preserved, no one will notice the existence of the hairball.
On the weekend, I reached out and touched every leaf around me, and picked off the leaves as long as they were two or three centimeters thick. After picking more than [-] leaf-shaped fruits, I couldn't reach the leaves in other places on the weekend.The place where their stone platform is located is not very big, and the leaves that can be touched are naturally extremely limited.
Looking at the luxuriant branches and leaves on his head like a huge umbrella on the weekend, he suddenly felt bad. With so many leaves, how long would it take him to touch all the leaves and pick all the fruits.Once tonight is over, it is absolutely impossible to act during the day, or it will be a big deal if someone finds out, but tomorrow the place may be cleaned up.
Suddenly the weekend stopped, he turned his head to look at the president, who was squinting his eyes and thinking under the moonlight.Maybe it was his gaze that disturbed the president, and seeing the president turned his head to look over, he immediately said on the weekend: "Brother Chen, this tree is a bit big, with so many leaves, how can we finish picking the fruit at this hour of night, it's just one leaf." I don’t know how long it will take to touch it.”
Chen Rui looked at the distressed young man in front of him, his mouth curled up a little. This kid went crazy when he saw food. He looked very similar to his little pig. The only difference was that the weekend love was swept away, and the hairball Just get one and be satisfied.
"Don't worry, it's just picking a fruit. You don't have to use your hands to identify the fruit. You forgot about your ability. You can use the water system ability to accurately control the thickness of the leaves. As long as you master it, you can quickly identify large areas. You can even use ice-type ice knives and gold-type blades to pick mutant fruits." Chen Rui said.
Hearing the president's words on the weekend felt very reasonable, but when he thought about the difficulty of implementing it, he immediately backed down on the weekend. To let him master such a large-scale fine control within a period of time, the weekend felt as difficult as the end of the world. confidence.He can only achieve such fine control in a small area at most, only a few meters away from him, and it is only limited to soil and water elements, and he can't do anything else at all. He has to admit that he doesn't have the talent of the president.
On the weekend, he grabbed Chen Rui's sleeve and said flatteringly, "Brother Chen, Brother Chen, you also know that I am still weak now, so I may be able to do it there. You help me first this time, and you take half of the fruits. How about the next half of me and Maoqiu, it is the credit of Maoqiu that I can find this mutated jujube, we can't ignore it..."
Seeing the young man's flattering appearance, Chen Rui shook his head and said, "You kid, I told you to cultivate hard, you don't know what to do, this time I promise to help you, if you haven't mastered the fine control of the water system next time, I will do it in the future." If you don't pick the fruits for you, you will watch those fruits become someone else's." Chen Rui knocked on the young man's head twice behind him, and he was reluctant to use force, but it was just a light meaning.
After hearing Chen Rui's words on the weekend, he immediately nodded his head and said: "Okay, I promise, don't worry, Brother Chen, I will definitely work hard to cultivate, and I will definitely not embarrass Brother Chen."
Hearing the promise of the young man's transformation, the purpose of practicing hard was to not embarrass him. Chen Rui had nothing to do with the young man, and he couldn't bear to scold him.He raised his hand and touched a leaf-shaped jujube, and recorded the shape of the jujube in his mind, and then countless fine and gentle sands slowly flowed over the umbrella of the big tree.Every leaf has been gently touched by the sand. The sand did not hurt the leaves, but after identifying the mutated fruit in the shape of a leaf, the stalk was cut off by the sand. In front of Chen Rui, I couldn't wait to put these fragrant and refreshing fruits into the space on the weekend.
Maoqiu and Weekend were so excited to watch, as expected, the president is omnipotent, if there is any difficulty, as long as the president steps in, it can be perfectly solved immediately.
This mutated jujube tree was full of fruit trees. Chen Rui had harvested thousands of mutated jujube fruits. When there were forty or fifty mutated fruits left, Chen Rui stopped.He turned back to the weekend and said: "This tree is very rare on the weekend, we can't destroy it, so tomorrow I will find a way to report this mutant fruit tree to the military, I believe they will take it seriously, maybe we don't have to complete the petrified ground task, you will be able to get that set of houses.”
I heard the same thing on the weekend, this fruit is so rare, it would be a pity to cut it down and burn it directly, this is a mutant fruit, the most precious existence in the last days, how can it be burned as firewood.But then he became worried again on the weekend, he frowned and said, "Brother Chen, how can we report to the above? If we want to reveal the hair ball, even though this mutant fruit tree is really rare, it is not as important as the hair ball. .”
Hearing the worries of the weekend, Chen Rui explained: "Don't worry, I will take out the fur balls. Isn't there still one night left? We can think about it slowly, and we will definitely be able to take out the fur balls. Yes Over the weekend, I remember that this is the edge of our responsibility. We will start to petrify the ground here tomorrow morning, and strive to reach this mutant tree as soon as possible, so as not to be hurt by people who don’t know it. There are about four fruits on the tree. Fifty, let’s leave it to the military for research and use.”
Hearing Chen Rui's words on the weekend, there are still forty or fifty fruits. Weekend still felt a little distressed, but thinking of the space being piled up with many crisp green dates, Weekend still held back his distress and nodded: "Okay Well, we can't pick them all, otherwise no one will believe the fruit trees. Since Brother Chen has finished picking the fruits, let's go back first, I'm a little hungry."
Chen Rui couldn't laugh or cry when he saw the distressed look of the young man, he had picked so many, even one change every day would be enough for them to eat for a year, Chen Rui shook his head and reminded: "Didn't you have wood-type abilities on weekends? A few branches are taken down, and the cuttings are planted at home, maybe it can support a plant, and there will be mutated dates to eat in the future."
Hearing it on the weekend, he was immediately elated. How could he have forgotten that he still has wood-type abilities. If ordinary people break off the branches and plant them, they will not be able to grow them alive, but weekends with wood-type abilities can definitely grow them alive, even if the fruit they bear may not be alive. It is not as good as this mutant fruit tree, but it will have some effects, even if it is eaten as a fruit, it is good.
Excited on the weekend, Chen Rui immediately pulled Chen Rui to choose the branches to be cut off. Be sure to cut off a few more branches. Even if some of them died, as long as one or two survived, it would be enough.
Living things cannot enter the space, but the branches are not the case. In the end, they broke down a dozen old branches to collect the space. On weekends, they took five of them and prepared to go home and plant them immediately.
The hairball’s stomach is not big, and it can’t actually eat much. After finishing these things on the weekend, it found that the hairball at its feet was still gnawing green dates. It’s round and still chewing, the owner will keep the half piece for you first, and eat it tomorrow, otherwise your stomach will burst if you eat it.”
Maoqiu's watery eyes accuse the owner of his inhumanity, but its stomach is really full, so it's good to be put away by the owner, and it can be left to eat tomorrow.
The stone platform came down quickly, holding the little pig on the weekend, and Chen Rui was holding five old branches in his hand. Although they could fit into the space, Weekend was worried that those branches might not be able to be cut, so these were specially reserved and taken back directly. Cuttings.
When I got home, I put the fur balls on the weekend, threw the stone pot and crabs to the president, and immediately ran to the side bedroom. Under the dim candlelight, I first made a big flower bed with earth-type abilities on the weekend, which happened to be next to the window.
A large amount of black soil quickly gathered in the flower bed, with a depth of about one meter, and then began to water the soil on the weekend. After seeing the soil was wet, I cut five green jujube branches down, and after pouring some water, He only started using the wood-type ability to increase the activity of the jujube branches on the weekend. He didn't dare to use the wood-type ability to spawn, because he was worried that it would change the attributes of the mutated jujube and make the jujube lose its function as a mutated fruit.
I don't know how long I squatted by the flower bed on the weekend. When Chen Rui walked in, he saw the young man staring at the tree branches silly. He coughed and said, "Is the weekend ready? The meal is ready, let's go eat first."
"Okay, it's all done, let's go eat quickly, I'm already hungry," said Weekend, standing up immediately after recovering. Today is his favorite crab, and the weekend has been long-awaited.
The dinner table was full of oil on the weekend, and the dipping sauce made by the president was also very delicious. The crab meat was delicious. After eating a crab claw and eating two big bowls of rice, I took out two leaves of green dates on the weekend. , is a dessert after dinner.After eating the sweet and refreshing green dates, a burst of coolness swept over the two of them, and the supernatural impurities were swept away, and the whole body and mind felt as comfortable as if they were still in the mother's womb.
On the weekend, I felt that the earth-type abilities suddenly became active. Chen Rui was very sensitive to the earth-type abilities. When the earth-type abilities were abnormal on the weekend, Chen Rui immediately felt it.
"The weekend is supposed to be the time when the soil ability will be upgraded. Enter the bedroom and practice immediately. Don't worry that I will help you hold the line and nothing will happen. You just need to worry about upgrading." Chen Rui dragged the weekend into the bedroom after finishing speaking. After watching the young man sitting cross-legged on the bed, Chen Rui began to quickly transform the earth elements into supernatural powers. These supernatural powers with a purity of almost [-]% were extremely rich and completely surrounded the weekend.
After sitting cross-legged on the weekend, he took a deep breath and began to quickly absorb these rich and pure abilities. The president’s abilities are more comfortable than any corpse crystal and crystal nucleus, and he does not need to actively absorb these abilities, almost scrambling to be the first poured into his body.
Countless pure abilities rushed into the dantian on the weekend, and the earth element crystal nucleus in the dantian was spinning rapidly at this moment. No matter how many abilities entered the dantian, it would be absorbed by this circular crystal nucleus, as if It's like a bottomless pit that can never be filled.Fortunately, the president provided a steady stream of earth elements, otherwise he would worry about whether he would fail to upgrade on weekends. He had never heard of so many earth elements being needed when he was promoted to the second level on weekends.
Time passed by, and half an hour later, Chen Rui frowned slightly. He was promoted to the second level very quickly, and he did not experience any danger.He couldn't help but feel a little worried about the weekend situation. He obviously provided enough earth-type abilities, so why the weekend upgrade is not over yet.
No matter how you think about it, something is wrong. Chen Rui quietly felt the arrangement of the elements around Weekend. Suddenly, his eyes opened instantly, and there was some disbelief in his eyes. The few mutated shrimp crystal cores he had kept in his hand were stuffed into Weekend's palm by Chen Rui , the soil ability around Zhou weekend was also withdrawn by Chen Rui, and a burst of water blue light appeared all over Zhou weekend, and the light flickered on and off for a long time. After more than ten minutes, Zhou weekend opened his eyes.
Chen Rui immediately asked: "How is it? Was the upgrade successful? What happened just now? Suddenly, the earth-type ability was mixed with the water-type ability."
"Success, Brother Chen. After the earth system power was successfully upgraded, the crystal core became rounder and darker, and the crystal core was also a small circle larger. After that, the water system power suddenly rioted, and I was shocked. I can only use fate to turn elements into water-type abilities. Just when I feel that I can’t keep up with the speed, Brother Chen, did you stuff the crystal core for me, and then I absorbed enough elements to transform into water-type abilities. His water ability has also been successfully upgraded to the first level, hehe..." On the weekend, Chen Rui chattered excitedly, but Chen Rui didn't bother him at all, just quietly being the most loyal listener.
It was not until more than ten minutes later that the weekend finally calmed down the excitement in his heart. He turned his head to look at Chen Rui and said, "Thank you, Brother Chen, should I practice more healing and wood abilities next?"
Chen Rui nodded after hearing the weekend's words: "Healing abilities should be brought up first. I've been a little busy recently and forgot to urge you. Don't forget to let other abilities and earth elements take the lead, and then heal. Department of supernatural powers, followed by other supernatural powers.”
What Chen Rui said was right, he hadn't been injured in the past weekend, which made him a bit scornful of the healing ability.He has forgotten that in the last days, medicines are hard to come by, and getting injured is almost equivalent to waiting for death, unless he can call in the supernatural powers of the healing department, but the supernatural powers of the healing department are rare, and most of them are controlled in the military or the team. It's not that easy.
Zhou weekend nodded and said: "Don't worry, Brother Chen, I will work hard to practice healing abilities from today onwards. If Brother Chen is injured in the future, I will be able to heal you. By the way, Brother Chen, I have something for you. You must give it to me." Keep it a secret from me."
When he said this on the weekend, he looked mysterious, and his voice was extremely low.Chen Rui watched Zhou weekend take off the jade pendant that had been hanging around his neck, and then stuffed it into his hands, which made Chen Rui a little strange, how could Zhou weekend think of giving him the jade pendant, Chen Rui's heart beat suddenly, Could it be that the weekend already knows what he likes, this is willing to accept his feelings, so this thing is a token of love...
I have to say that such a smart person as the president is not able to use his mind at this moment. When Chen Rui was still immersed in wild thoughts, he heard Weekend sticking to Chen Rui's ear and whispered: "Brother Chen, this jade pendant is a Although the space is only [-] square meters, it is very high, so it can hold a lot of things. With this space, Brother Chen can put many things, such as ingredients, without worrying about it being damaged outside..."
The warm tone whispered in his ears and Chen Rui was in a daze for a while. When he heard Zhou Zhou's words clearly, his whole heart turned cold. It turned out that he had misunderstood. This kid always thinks of food first.
Chen Rui was helpless, and he didn't know whether it was disappointment or luck. The young man finally took him to heart, but the young man's trust still made Chen Rui happy.Feelings can be developed step by step. One day he will make the young man fall in love with him with all his heart, and he will belong to him completely in body and mind, and Mao Qiu will stand aside, which shows how much the president resents Mao Qiu.
"Brother Chen, did you understand what I said? Hurry up and accept it with a drop of blood. You also know that I have a space system ability that has been upgraded to the first level. The space is not small. It can hold many things in it. I have already taken out part of the food. Put it in my space, there are still a lot of things in the jade pendant space, which should be enough for us to eat for a while, and after eating, brother Chen is telling me that I still have some things, rice, and food." Weekend dragged Chen Rui He opened the mouth and said that he was afraid that the president would not accept it. Once the president took over his space, he would be his and he would have to cook for him for the rest of his life, so he couldn't go back on his word.
Chen Rui took the jade pendant from the young man's hand, cut it lightly on his fingertips with a stone blade, and a drop of bright red blood fell on the jade pendant in his palm. After watching the jade pendant absorb the blood drop, Chen Rui felt a space, isn't it It is very big, but there are a lot of miscellaneous things in it, such as chicken, duck, pork, beef, etc. There are also a lot of seasonings, and there are many, many salts, but it can take a lot of time.
Chen Rui looked at the young man in front of him with complicated eyes. How did the young man know about the end of the world? Otherwise, why would he prepare so many supplies, all of which are in short supply after the end of the world? He even prepared some clothes and quilts. Light likes to eat a sentence that can explain clearly.
"Brother Chen, how about Brother Chen, you can feel it, there are still a lot of supplies in it, I just sorted out the things in the space at will, and after removing some of them, I can free up some space, so as not to catch mutant beasts in time There is no place to put it." Weekend shook his hand in front of Chen Rui's eyes and said.
Just when Chen Rui came back to his senses, there was a knock on the door. Chen Rui looked at the young man in front of him and said, "I feel it, it's very good. It will be much more convenient to use ingredients for cooking in the future." After finishing speaking, Chen Rui Rui glanced at the young man in front of him complicatedly, and then restrained all the emotions in his eyes.
Block behind the door with rocks, and Chen Rui can detect any slight movement around the house.Who would come to them so late? In this new base, apart from the people who fled together, only Zhang Chi and Zhou Cheng had intersected with them.After Chen Rui and Weekend looked at each other, they stood up and put away all the food that shouldn't be in the house, and then Weekend slapped his head and said, "Isn't Brother Sun coming over? Sister Wu said that it will be here at night." They brought the corpse crystal over."
"Probably not. I can detect Sun Yi's footsteps. This person's footsteps are different from Sun Yi's." Chen Rui explained.
He became worried as soon as he heard it on the weekend, and he said worriedly: "Who could that be? Is there something wrong with the base? Let's go and have a look, and nothing happens. We have spent so much effort and energy , I hope this base can stand for a long time, and it won't be destroyed within a few days."
Seeing the young man's slightly worried eyes, Chen Rui stretched out his hand and patted the young man's shoulder and comforted him: "No, there are stinky weeds around, zombies won't come if they don't smell human, even if one or two mutated beasts come That’s all food delivery, as long as there are no groups of attacks, the current development momentum of the base will basically not be captured.”
He finally felt relieved after hearing the president's analysis on the weekend. He currently has blind confidence in the president. No matter what the president says, he is right and has deep meaning.
Opening the door, Weekend frowned, and the person standing at the door was someone neither Weekend nor Chen Rui had seen before. The other party was a soldier, dressed in military uniform and holding a briefcase in his hand, looking like a pair of gold.His body was clean without a single wrinkle, and he looked as clean and tidy as if he was attending a banquet. He was not at all like the soldiers he saw on the weekend. His body was covered in sweat and even his busy body exuded a sour smell of sweat.
When Chen Rui looked at the person in front of him, he immediately frowned slightly. It was a very subtle expression, which could only be seen after spending many weekends with the president. Otherwise, ordinary people would really not be able to notice the change of the president's expression, and began to feel unhappy.
"You have something to do," Chen Rui said.
The other party raised the glasses on his nose and nodded: "Yes, I am the office worker in charge of renting houses in the new base. You signed a house purchase agreement earlier, but now the new city is newly planned. The houses in the new city are all Buying is not allowed, only renting is allowed, and the house purchase agreement you signed before has been voided. However, the above has also given you compensation, you can use this house for free for one year, and then rent it like other houses.”
"How could this be the case? The agreement just signed will be void if it is said to be void. How can they be so dishonest." Weekend immediately exclaimed.
The other party glanced at the weekend, and then said: "The base changes every day, and the above decision is also based on this decision. The base has a large population, and it is not easy to arrange it. Because your house is relatively small, you can live for free for a year. They bought big ones, and now they not only have to pay rent, they may even take it back. Everything in the base has just started, and everything is still being explored, please forgive me, we just hope to do the best, and we can arrange more people to settle down... "
After the other party finished speaking, he bowed towards the weekend and saluted. Looking at the other party's excellent attitude on the weekend, he couldn't blame him for what happened, he could only feel aggrieved and angry.He just doesn’t want to, so what can he do? It’s not that he was taken back by himself. It’s not bad to live for free for a year. At least the base didn’t take it back directly and asked them to pay the rent. That’s the only way to comfort his wounded heart on weekends.
"Understood, we accept this agreement," Chen Rui said very rationally, he would not complain like he did on weekends, the decision of the base was actually expected by Chen Rui, and Chen Rui was not particularly surprised because he was prepared. It wasn't just because of the house that he took on this task at the beginning, Chen Rui also hoped to make a contribution to mankind in his heart, even if this contribution even had reservations.
"Since the two of you have accepted, I'll leave first, and I'll inform a few other people that you can go to the base tomorrow to register the one-year use right of this house." The soldier turned and left immediately after speaking.
Immediately after watching the person leave on the weekend, he said angrily: "What is this? I just signed the contract yesterday and changed my mind today. What's the matter? I don't have any credit. Brother, do we have to complete the task tomorrow, we can't let us do white work."
Listening to the young man's complaint, Chen Rui smiled and said: "It's not a white job. At least we helped build the fence. The base has our credit. The fence can help people resist zombies and mutant beasts. We helped many people, no Just those in power at the base."
"You're right, but I'm still upset. Brother Chen, do you think we should tell the military about the mutated fruit? They confiscated our house." Although he was appeased on the weekend, he My heart is still unhappy and unbalanced.
Chen Rui looked at the still angry young man and said, "Naturally, we want to say that our house may have fallen on that mutated tree. Tonight, I will think of a way to reveal it to the military after removing the fur balls." , if such a contribution is not willing to take out a house, then Xincheng is too stingy."
Chen Rui's words are not bad, in fact, it's because he cares about the house on weekends, otherwise Chen Rui doesn't care at all, a house only costs a few crystals, and it doesn't take too long to reach out with his hand.What's more, it's hard to say whether this house can live for a year. Although it is surrounded by smelly grass, no one knows whether the zombies and mutant beasts will continue to evolve. can hold back.
Hearing that there was still a chance to get a house on the weekend, he was immediately revived with full blood. He dragged Chen Rui and walked towards the bedroom. Chen Rui was dragged away. When the two entered the bedroom, the door automatically opened silently. Close it, and then a stone is built instantly, which looks very magical.
Lying on the bed in the master bedroom tossing and turning, I couldn't sleep on the weekend. Tonight, because I picked a lot of mutant fruits, I upgraded the soil ability to the second level, and the water ability to the first level. I was too excited on the weekend at this time.Even though the house might go down the drain, he couldn't contain the excitement over the weekend thinking about what he had right now.
Chen Rui looked at the young man lying on the bed tossing and turning, and finally couldn't help but said: "Since you can't sleep, you can strengthen the ability of the earth system, and then practice the ability of the healing system. You can practice it on me, or you can practice it on Mao Practice on the ball. Although there is no wound, the body should be able to receive treatment. If not, I will cut a wound for you to practice. This ability is very important and must not be neglected. Many more lives."
Chen Rui's words had an effect. He sat up cross-legged on the weekend, first practiced the earth-type ability, and then he started to use the healing-type ability, and the whole room suddenly lit up, like an incandescent lamp.The moment the light appeared, Chen Rui immediately sealed any gaps in the windows in the bedroom, absolutely preventing the light from penetrating through.At present, they have seen the ability of the healing system on Nan Nan. The whole base is so big, and Chen Rui has not received any news about the ability of the healing system. .
After squandering all the healing powers in his body on the president and Maoqiu, he started to practice on the weekend. For the first time, he discovered a magical effect of the healing powers, that is, the light of the healing powers can be used as a lamp. I don't have wax feet at home, so I can use the therapy system for lighting. I feel good because of this discovery on weekends.
After squandering the ability of the healing department, Weekend suddenly said, "Brother Chen, have you figured out a way? I've already planted mutated jujubes in the guest bedroom. If the house is taken back, what will happen to my jujubes?"
Chen Rui looked at the young man in front of him who was starting to worry again, and said helplessly: "You think too far, I already have a bottom line in my heart, you just need to cultivate your abilities well, even if I don't have this house, I won't let you You have no place to live."
After hearing this sentence on the weekend, he finally felt at ease. He began to practice the squandered healing powers with peace of mind, absorbing non-attributed elements, and then transforming the elements into healing powers.These supernatural abilities converged to the dantian one by one, and gradually gathered above the dantian to form a light bulb emitting soft light. It is indeed a lamp, the kind of lamp with copper wire in the 90s, hanging above the dantian out of thin air, bright, clean and pure , looked very warm.
