Chapter 43 Eat corn? Swinging the sickle
The sun shines through the golden clouds, and the morning breeze is cool. It should be a prosperous time, but the road is desolate.
Although the journey is expected to be uneventful, no one likes a smooth road. Gu Wenxing pursed his thin lips slightly when he saw the series of car accidents in front of him.
It seemed that the outside world was less optimistic than he imagined.
He slowly stopped the car, and Zhao Minan's mental energy spread out, patrolling the small area of overturned cars in front of him.
There were no living people or zombies in the car, only severed limbs and horrific bodies.
The four of them got out of the car, Gu Jinguo held a gas pump, and he pumped the gas tank of whichever car Zhao Minan pointed out.
Gu Wenyue stood next to the car. There were crop fields on both sides of the road. Thick and towering corn stalks swayed in the wind, sending an extremely rich fragrance that dispersed the smell of corpses.
She touched the bracelet on her hand, and the rose quietly nestled beside her wrist bone, like a dutiful guardian.
"The supplies in the car are very few, let's go." Zhao Minan said, his voice seemed a bit unreal in this environment.
The corn forest next to it shook even more violently.
Gu Wenyue felt the sudden tightening of strength in her hands, as well as the eagerness to try from the roses in her mind.
She patted the bracelet on her wrist and suddenly said: "Dad, Mom, let's collect some corn. We can roast it and eat it later."
In fact, there was not much corn left in the fields near the road. There were always people who had successfully escaped. They also needed to eat and had already collected all the corn along the road.
But it didn't matter, she didn't really want to harvest much corn.
Although the three of them didn't know what their sister wanted to do, they tacitly agreed not to ask. They just took out the sharp sickle in their hands.
Before the end, with one swing of the scythe, a small piece of cornstalk would fall to the ground.
But now, the four people, whose bodies have been strengthened, just pushed down a small piece of corn and felt a little difficult.
Gu Wenxing always made sure to stay three steps away from his sister. If her sister didn't explain, there must be a reason, and this unknown reason was also the most dangerous.
Suddenly, Gu Wenyue's movements suddenly changed, and the sickle she swung turned into her long knife in the air.
The long knife fell to the ground, splitting the branches and exploding, and scattered the broken leaves.
When Gu Wenxing and the other three heard a "clang--", their expressions instantly became solemn.
From their perspective, there was nothing under Gu Wenyue's knife!
On the girl's wrist, the rose vine grew stronger in an instant, climbing along her hand and the handle of the knife, onto the surface of the knife, bypassing the sharpest edge, and entangled the air under the knife at extremely fast speeds.
After a few breaths, the piece of air under the knife gradually appeared. It seemed to be a small humanoid? !
The brown and green flower vines tightly imprisoned the strange human-shaped thing as big as a forearm, and it began to struggle under this airtight binding.
The thunder and lightning in Gu Wenxing's hand also formed a thunder net. The moment Gu Wenyue raised the back of the knife, it quickly surrounded the entangled human figure, leaving only a hole for the vines to enter and exit.
Zhao Minan's face turned a little pale. Her spiritual power swept over him over and over again, but she couldn't feel the opponent's presence at all.
A pair of reddish peach blossom eyes were full of solemnity. She was not strong enough. How could she protect her beloved daughter like this?
Gu Jinguo's water blades also formed a circle, ready to go. He saw that his wife looked a little strange and held her cold hand. Zhao Minan calmed down and said, "I can't feel it."
When he heard this, he knew why his wife looked so remorseful and sad just now. In her previous life, her daughter's death had always been a knot in her heart that she had never opened.
After his rebirth, although she never talked about it, he still remembered the suppressed crying that came from next to him every night in his previous life when everyone was quiet.
He sighed and said, "Honey, it's okay. Wen Yue is fine."
Gu Wenxing had already protected Gu Wenyue behind him, but the rose vine was still connected between the girl's wrist and the weird rag doll.
In Gu Wenyue's sight, there was a dilapidated and strange rag doll in front of her. She was wearing a small dress that was so dirty that her original appearance could not be seen. A pair of red eyes rolled around.
"Can't you see her?" Gu Wenyue asked, pointing to the rag doll.
Gu Wenxing's eyes were fixed on the group of rose vines in front of him, which was still a ball of air.
He shook his head and looked at his parents. The two of them also shook their heads.
The expressions on the three people's faces were a little heavy.
Gu Wenxing did not dare to use his powers for fear of hurting his sister, but Gu Jinguo had no such worries. In just a short time, he had already launched three waves of attacks.
The huge water pressure gives the seemingly ordinary water blade a powerful attack power, but at this moment, the water blade, which can easily cut the heads of zombies, has no effect on the ragdoll.
From Gu Wenyue's perspective, the corners of the rag doll's ragged mouth were slightly raised, and coupled with the pair of weird red eyes, the whole doll revealed a hint of evil.
"Mom and Dad, have you ever heard of a weird rag doll in your last life?"
Gu Jinguo and his wife shook their heads. Logically speaking, since this thing was found near their village, and it was so powerful in the early stages, there should be some news about it.
Unless...
Everyone who saw it died.
Thinking of this, a chill ran down their backs.
Now, they actually bumped into this weird thing.
Gu Wen Xingfu blurted out like a soul: "Wen Yue, try to receive it into space."
They can't enter the space now anyway.
Gu Wenyue shook her head and said: "I've already tried it, but it doesn't work. She should belong to the category that cannot be contained in the space."
When she finished speaking, her tone hesitated, and then continued: "Just like a human being."
Gu Wenxing thought of the first day of the apocalypse, when they tried to put that man into space.
At this moment, the ragdoll struggled more and more fiercely, tearing the rose vines on its body with both hands.
The rose vine grew another layer, wrapping it tightly.
It's like the two sides are competing.
Gu Wenyue looked through the gap between the rose vines and saw the two red eyes opening wider and wider, seeming to contain anger.
Suddenly, the ragdoll stopped struggling.
The three of them protected Gu Wenyue behind them more carefully and slowly retreated.
This doesn't look like he's just being captured, it's more like he's trying to gather his strength to unleash a move!
Sure enough, from Gu Wenyue's perspective, the ragdoll's eyes suddenly closed tightly, but a black crack opened where her mouth had been!
The crack was like a black hole that swallowed everything, and when it opened, it let out a shrill scream.
A scream like a steel knife echoed in the heads of the four people, leaving them stunned for a moment.
When she came to her senses again, Gu Wenyue's eyes widened and she subconsciously pulled her family to retreat quickly!
The tissue wrapped around her mouth by the rose vine disappeared as if swallowed by a black hole where it touched the rag doll's mouth. The rag doll twisted its head 360 degrees and quickly swallowed the rose vine. One lap.
The cabbage appeared out of thin air, and the green mouth at the center of the cabbage quickly broke away from the black cabbage and tried to land on the ragdoll.
But the ragdoll raised its head, opened its mouth, and bit off a corner of its green mouth!
The cabbage retracted its mouth and wrapped it in layers of cabbage leaves.
The rose had detached from Gu Wenyue's wrist and took root on the ground, absorbing the energy in the soil. The green vegetation around it withered and fell to the ground, but the rose plant grew in the wind and soon grew to the height of a person.
