In the end of the ice age, I hoarded tens of billions of supplies

Zhang Yi was greatly surprised that in this freezing and snowy season, there were still fruit trees that could bear fruit.

But when he thought of the blood vine that once belonged to the Snow Worship Sect, Zhang Yi felt relieved instantly.

Plants are not immune to mutation.

And as one of the most tenacious creatures, trees are indeed better able to adapt to changes in nature than animals.

Even dead old trees have a chance to spring again.

So it is not strange for plants to mutate and adapt to severe cold.

When Zhang Yi and others landed, they saw that the group of people who landed on the island first had arrived in front of the orchard.

The trees were unusually tall, with their tops connected together, and their huge needles intertwined with each other, blocking out the sky and the sun. The interior of the forest was very dark.

But there are many white fruits growing on the branches.

It looks a bit like a cantaloupe, but it is more slender than that, about twenty or thirty centimeters long.

These fruits sway slightly in the wind, exuding a mouth-watering aroma.

Some people can't help but want to go over and pick a fruit to eat.

When Zhang Yi saw this scene, he planned to stop it, but then he thought about it and closed his mouth again.

So, a man climbed up the tree, picked a fruit and ate it.

The white fruit is broken open with force, and there is a creamy pulp inside, and the fragrant aroma is even more intense.

Seeing everyone's timid look, the man smiled and said, "I study plants. I can tell that this fruit is not poisonous just by smelling it. You can eat it!"

As he spoke, he took a big bite in front of everyone.

The sweet juice filled his mouth, and he smiled: "It's so sweet, it really quenches your thirst!"

Except for Zhang Yi and a few others, it was very difficult for the people on the ship to have enough to eat on weekdays. They had not tasted fruit for an unknown amount of time.

So when they saw that there was nothing unusual about the fruit, they all ran over and scrambled to pick the fruit from the tree.

There are also some who are cautious and do not dare to pick the fruits because they are worried that there may be something wrong with the fruits.

Lao Tian came over, held a piece of fruit and asked Zhang Yida: "Mr. Zhang, this fruit..."

"Don't eat."

Zhang Yi just responded with two words.

But after thinking about it, he still put the fruit into a different space.

Lao Tian held back his tongue and said, "Yes!"

Su Nuanxi was also a little greedy. She said to Zhu Yunque next to her: "Senior sister, they have all eaten, let's pick one and eat it too!"

Zhu Yunque has been observing Zhang Yi.

Seeing Zhang Yi and Zhou Keer, both were indifferent, frowned slightly and said: "It's better not to eat, safety first."

Su Nuanxi swallowed, her expression a little regretful.

But at this moment, Tommy in her arms woke up from the scent.

As soon as he woke up, he started crying loudly.

Su Nuanxi said quickly: "He probably smelled the milk and was greedy! Otherwise, get some for the child to eat."

Zhu Yunque said instinctively: "Are you crazy? You actually let Tommy eat this unknown thing..."

Halfway through her words, her voice slowly trailed off.

"Something of unknown origin."

Su Nuanxi blinked: "But they are all eating! Look, I don't see any problems."

Zhu Yunque hesitated, but still did not dare to take the risk.

Along the way, she had gained a lot of memory, and she was already frightened by various strange events on the sea.

Zhang Yi held a gun in his right hand and held Zhou Keer in his left hand, asking the crew to stand guard with guns around him.

After seeing that some passengers ate the white fruit without any abnormality, he said: "Let's go to the island."

As the passengers walked, they carried more white fruits on their bodies, and then moved forward slowly.

Zhang Yi needs to judge whether there is any danger here.

If possible, place everyone here temporarily.

After all, there is still fruit to eat, so he won’t starve to death for a while.

The trees on the island are so big that when going deeper, you have to turn on the miner's lamp for lighting.

But as he walked, Zhang Yi noticed something was wrong.

Because he actually discovered the traces of human activities in the woods.

The deep woods are muddy and wet, so human footprints can be clearly seen.

"There are people living here!"

Zhang Yi secretly became more vigilant.

However, there are still people living in this place, which means that there is an environment suitable for human survival.

He took these people and moved forward step by step.

After passing through the dense woods, we discovered a village made of wooden houses in front of us.

The fields and houses look like row upon row.

There are no tall buildings, just wooden houses.

They walked out of the woods and saw no one outside.

But this is understandable. It's freezing outside, and no one would go out rashly if it's not necessary.

Compared to Zhang Yi's caution, the other passengers on the ship were much more excited.

They felt they had found a holy place suitable for survival.

There are a large number of fruit trees here, which can provide them with sufficient food.

And the human village shows that there is no problem in long-term survival here.

Some people could no longer hold themselves back and ran to the village to ask if anyone was there.

"Is there anyone here?"

"Hello? Is there anyone else here?"

……

Zhang Yi frowned slightly when he heard their shouts, but did not say anything to stop them.

He just pulled Zhou Keer and others to stop at a distance.

After a while, the door of a wooden house was opened cautiously.

The person who opened the door was an old woman wearing black clothes. Her skin was dry and wrinkled, and her body was hunched over. She looked like she was in her 80s.

"Where are you all from?"

Surprisingly, the old woman spoke Chinese.

However, in this sea area, there are indeed Chinese people living everywhere.

The passengers were excited to see someone really there.

Someone immediately came forward and said, "We came from afar and came here to rest for a while."

Lao Tian walked next to Zhang Yi and said, "Mr. Zhang, he looks like an ordinary person. We should have arrived at a small island in the southern sea, and we are very close to entering the Sea of ​​Stars."

Zhang Yi nodded and said nothing more.

The passengers over there were already chatting happily with the old lady.

Perhaps it had been too long since they had seen other people, and they were all very excited.

One after another, people from other houses cautiously opened the door and walked out.

These people claim that they are all local residents. After heavy snowfall, they have survived to this day by relying on the fruits of the local sacred tree.

But Zhang Yi always felt a little strange when he looked at them.

Because there are only women in this village, but not a single man.

Moreover, the skin color of those women was strangely pale.

"Everyone, you've come all the way here, just rest here! I'll prepare dinner for you."

The old woman said with a smile.

Then she turned around and returned to the house. Women from other families also warmly entertained the passengers to go home for dinner.

These passengers were greatly moved and their hearts were warmed by the enthusiasm of the locals.

Zhu Yunque looked down at the child in his arms and couldn't help but murmur to himself: "Tommy, it wouldn't be a bad thing for you to leave you to the people here to raise you."
