Chapter 4 4. Alien Plant Defense Force
“No.” Huaiyu said generously: “My contribution score is zero! They also sent me soybeans and nutrient solution, Rose Mansion No. 1 All 600 acres of the land were given to me!”
She smiled with satisfaction as she spoke, her face covered with dust and gravel felt particularly satisfied under the flashlights on the shoulders of the soldiers.
At this moment, everyone was silent.
The contribution is zero, they should look down upon it.
But the other party seemed to be just a pampered and ignorant little girl. Before the disaster, she was probably still taking entrance exams for college.
Everyone slowly put away their guns, and then asked: "Have you been here tonight? Is there anything unusual nearby? People? Animals? Or plants?"
Huaiyu After thinking for a while, she answered affirmatively: "It's just me."
She was so determined that everyone laughed. After a while, someone said: "I just took a look and there is nothing abnormal in the whole area." "
"Don't be careless. The mutation value in the corridor in Area 8 fluctuated slightly this morning, not reaching the alarm level, but it happened twice a day, so don't be careless."
The leading soldier made a gesture, and everyone slowly gathered around, planning to turn back.
After taking two steps, he turned around again: "Where will you stay tonight?"
Huaiyu pointed to the masonry ruins just now: "Here! There is a very wide tunnel inside. ! It’s a little warmer than outside.”
She is very satisfied, this is much more spacious than that tree cocoon!
The soldiers were silent.
Because the "tunnel" in front of me is clearly the foundation laid by the Rose Mansion before. However, it is only the foundation.
But outsiders are never allowed to enter or exit the military zone, not to mention that after many years of disaster, everyone should be responsible for their own choices and actions.
With zero contribution points, I chose the largest allocation land again. This was the other party’s choice.
The group returned in a disciplined manner. Huaiyu stared at the car going away with envy: "I want it so much too."
Then she turned her head and looked again Taking a look at the rose corridor, the spikes on it were still ferocious, and the flowers were still soft and fragrant.
"Why are you so easily excited? I want to stay away from you tonight - no shaking, no trembling! If you are really excited, go ahead and expel the mutations in the wasteland. No trouble is allowed here anyway."
She babbled, her voice was soft and not intimidating at all.
"There are not even pine leaves here. The bricks on the ground are too hard. I can't sleep well. Can you drop some flower petals for me?"
There is silence all around.
But in the rose corridor, the branches are growing rapidly, and the unbloomed buds are also growing and expanding desperately.
With a final "pop", it bloomed.
Thousands of flowers bloomed together, making sounds one after another in this silent night.
Then, a breeze came from nowhere, and they blew through the rose corridor in curls. In the night wind, overwhelming pink petals flew up in the air, and followed closely towards the embrace. The elm's feet are stacked.
“Holy shit...”
Someone driving a car not far away looked over in shock. The faces under the helmet were dull.
Huaiyu was a little annoyed...she didn't even notice anyone coming.
But the other party was stunned for only a moment and then quickly drove closer - a few years after the disaster, the romantic rain of flowers in front of him was obviously only equal to the crisis. But this is the Rose Corridor, and together with the surrounding Sanqing Mountain natural barrier, it helps Huacheng block the enemies in the wasteland.
The flowers it bloomed...well, even if there were a lot of flowers, the other party didn't think that the petals and the spring breeze had anything to do with Huaiyu, so he just walked over quickly carrying the package:
“Don’t get too close to any plant, not even the rose corridor.”
"In addition, this is the sleeping bag our captain has applied for you. You can take it. It is early spring and you will get sick if you sleep on the ground."
Huaiyu took this in a daze, and after a moment he thought of what he had done all day today. After experiencing the experience, he suddenly showed a soft and genuine smile:
"Thank you, brother, you are so kind."
The other party paused, and it was obvious that a girl like a little sister softly called him "brother" ", which made him feel proud.
But zero contribution points...
He came back rationally, thought for a while and then said: "Little girl, the country is in dire need now, and all walks of life need manpower. You must grit your teeth and work hard, and stop living like this... Otherwise, you will really not have enough to eat. "
After that, he turned and left, then came back and took out a bag with a bag of petals:
"The Rose Corridor was abnormal three times today. I took the petals back for testing. Since you have chosen this place, be careful.”
After he left, the surroundings returned to silence, with only the branches in the rose corridor rustling, obviously not very happy.
And Huaiyu looked at the pink petals stacked like a thick quilt at his feet, and said softly:
"Okay, okay, I have a sleeping bag but the ground is still hard. I originally wanted to use you to pave the tunnel, but now... I might as well put the sleeping bag on top!"
...
Hmph After humming and tidying up, the maroon sleeping bag was stuffed with flower petals and then poured into the tunnel.
Huaiyu carried it back and forth, and when the square tunnel was finally filled with fragrant petals, he spread the sleeping bag and got his whole body into it.
“Wow! It’s so comfortable to lie down like this!”
She let out a long sigh, looked at the sky above that was tightly blocked by masonry and concrete, and suddenly reacted:
"Huh? Why do you listen to me in the Rose Corridor?"
And there's more. ...Why can I always feel the life that is about to stir in the bag of soybeans I brought back?
She thought about it sleepily, and finally came to the conclusion:
"It must be because I am so amazing, so I can have such ability... Indeed, although I can't remember the past clearly, but I must be that good.”
In the fragrant aroma, her body and sleeping bag were slowly wrapped in pink petals, and then gradually fell down.
……
The next morning, Huaiyu woke up to the sound of radio broadcasts.
[Today is Thursday, March 19, 2066, sunny. Affected by typhoons in coastal cities, it is expected that our city will usher in rainy weather next week. Please be prepared...]
[When spring rain comes, everything will happen. All departments need to be more cautious in their work to prevent Variation】
[The mutants in the Third Prison rioted last night, and one person is currently on the run. Please residents...]
The broadcast came from the loudspeaker on the tall pillar last night. Obviously, in addition to sensing mutation values, it also Part-time communications and communications.
But, it’s too close and a bit noisy.
Huaiyu squirmed out of the maroon sleeping bag, but the fragrant petals around it had withered overnight and turned into withered brown-yellow dry petals all over the ground. They were piled on top of each other, which was very ugly.
She sighed and realized that making a bed with flower petals was not a long-term solution. She still had to find a stable place to sleep.
But look at the vast foundation in front of us... No matter how strong and smooth the masonry structure is, they are built underground. It's livable and sheltered from the wind, but if it rains hard, the entire foundation will be soaked into a small ditch...
Huaiyu doesn't want to wake up early in the morning and find himself floating on the water.
