What's wrong with being a salted fish?

Chapter 21 Happy fishing in the last days 4

0617 was sleeping soundly in Lin Zhuo's arms, leaving Lin Zhuo unable to find anyone to talk to in the vast night.

Cheng Yu felt a lot like Xie Jingran to him, but Lin Zhuo didn't dare to bet on this possibility. He needed more definite evidence to prove that they were the same person, and now this idea made him a little confused, and he didn't even know what to do. Something, he thought of the little birthmark on Xie Jingran's shoulder, but he couldn't go up and take off Cheng Yu's clothes, could he? It seems that he is a little unruly.

Wait first, and if he is willing to catch up, he can find a way to confirm. Lin Zhuo comforted himself like this.

He was already in a mess and didn't know how to vent it, but suddenly a vine came out of the ground and wrapped around his calf.

"Something that doesn't know whether to live or die." Lin Zhuo then realized that he was walking aimlessly and ended up in the territory of the mutated plant. The thing climbing up his leg made him feel very annoyed.

This mutated plant obviously has no intelligence and cannot tell the difference between strength and weakness. It just relies on instinct to hunt all living creatures that intrude on its territory. So when Lin Zhuo stepped into its territory, it instinctively used vines to trap him or even kill him.

"You dare to be arrogant in front of me without your wisdom." Lin Zhuo was in a bad mood now. He could only say that this mutated plant hit the muzzle of his gun.

Lin Zhuo waved his right hand, and the vine that climbed up his calf began to freeze gradually, then shattered into shiny crumbs.

This plant is a mutated parasitic vine. It originally climbed on a big tree and lived by parasitizing the tree. However, it mutated during the apocalypse. It gradually swallowed up the tree it was parasitic on, turning from an object into a subject. , like turning over and becoming the master. After swallowing the tree, it gained a thick body and grew dense vines hidden underground, waiting for the intruders who broke into its territory and growing by devouring them.

Lin Zhuo's behavior of casually smashing one of its vines angered it, and dense vines continued to emerge from the ground. They continued to grow, covering the sky and the sun, trying to trap Lin Zhuo to death.

Cheng Yu, who was following him, felt bad. Just as he was about to use his fire power to help Lin Zhuo out of trouble, he found that the vines gradually stopped moving, and then slowly froze into icicles from the ground, and turned into crumbs all over his body. , as if the scene just now was Cheng Yu's illusion.

Lin Zhuo, standing in the middle of the vines, was filled with blue aura, "If you want to die, I will give you a ride!"

Lin Zhuo stretched out his right hand and gradually brought his fingers together. As he moved, the huge body of the mutated parasitic vine gradually began to freeze. It kept twisting its body as if it wanted to escape, but its body continued to be frozen until the entire vine was frozen into ice.

"Annoying." After Lin Zhuo's words fell, the body of the parasitic vine also shattered, and then a green spiritual core appeared on the spot. The spiritual core of plants is different from the crystal core in the brains of zombies. The spiritual core will be more crystal clear than the crystal core. It will be more helpful to the superpower after absorbing it. Moreover, there are much fewer mutated plants than zombies, so the spiritual core is much smaller than that of zombies. Cores are more precious.

Lin Zhuo sucked the spirit core into his hand and threw it to Cheng Yu who was following him: "No need to follow anymore." After saying that, he left here without waiting for Cheng Yu's reaction.

Cheng Yu held the spiritual core in both hands. This was originally a gift he wanted to give to Lin Zhuo, but now he received the gift himself. Cheng Yu was in a daze, thinking back to Lin Zhuo who just killed the mutated plant casually, like killing an insect. He felt that he was still too weak. Although he was currently at the top of the human race with level five superpowers, he was still at the top of the human race. Compared with Lin Zhuo's understatement and ease, it was still slightly difficult for him to kill this mutant parasitic vine. Lin Zhuo is so powerful, no wonder he dares to live alone in this world, but now that he is weak, he is really not worthy of him. He is neither strong enough nor has enough background to support Lin Zhuo. Cheng Yu could only watch Lin Zhuo's leaving figure, silently clenching his hand tightly. His hand was a little painful from the spiritual core. He kept thinking that he still had to become stronger. Then Cheng Yu wanted to leave directly, but he thought of something and followed Lin Zhuo again.

"What else do you want?" Lin Zhuo noticed that Cheng Yu was following him again.

"I just want to give you a little thing." Cheng Yu scratched his head in embarrassment. He also knew that his behavior was inappropriate.

Lin Zhuo just looked at him expressionlessly and said nothing.

Cheng Yu looked at him and felt that he was like a moonlight elf, coming by the moonlight. He didn't know the sufferings of the world, and everything in the world was not worth mentioning to him. The elves are carefree, neither sad nor happy, so how can they pity themselves because they like them? He had to create the opportunity himself to make the elf fall into his arms willingly.

Cheng Yu clenched his hand into a fist, and when he opened it again, a necklace made of fiery red beads appeared in his palm. This was the embodiment of his fire power.

"The temperature at night is too low now. I think you might be cold. Wearing this will make you warmer." Cheng Yu said.

What he said actually makes sense. After the end of the world, the temperature difference between day and night will be too great, and people may freeze to death, so people will hide at home at night and rarely go out. For Lin Zhuo, this temperature was indeed uncomfortable. He looked at Cheng Yu, who had an expectant look on his face. His expression was very similar to Xie Jingran's. Lin Zhuo thought, and his heart softened. He lowered his head and asked Cheng Yu to help him put it on.

After Cheng Yu carefully helped him put on the necklace, he wanted to speak but didn't. Finally, he took a deep look at him and left.

He has to make himself stronger. He needs to be able to catch the elf.

Lin Zhuo didn't know what he was thinking, but Cheng Yu's movement of catching up again made him shaken. He speculated that Cheng Yu was the person he wanted, but he didn't say anything to keep him. Instead, he looked at Cheng Yu's leaving figure. A small smile appeared on his face. If he was really that person, he would prove it to himself. He just needed to be a little patient. Then Lin Zhuo also left.

After leaving the team and getting lost, Shen Momo wandered around like a headless fly for half an hour, passing by the place where the mutated parasitic vines used to grow, and found the remaining unmelted ice cubes with broken vines frozen inside.

That ice superpower has been here! And killed the mutant plant!

Shen Momo searched the place and confirmed that she was the only one here. She carefully observed the remaining ice cubes. She could confirm that this person with superpowers was very strong. If she could obtain his superpowers, even if she could only use part of his power, she would You can also become stronger!

But there was no trace, and she had nowhere to start. She could only regret that she came too late, but then she had a new idea. She could devour other people's powers first. Why was it more special to just stare at the inside of the original work? What about his superpowers? If she absorbs more, even if she is not strong enough, she can still win with numbers! But she had to try out the activation conditions of her skills first. Currently, she only absorbed Jin Su's spatial abilities.

Speaking of this power, Shen Momo gets angry just thinking about it now. If Jin Su's power wasn't too weak, how could he be despised by Mu Huaisheng? Jin Su, as Cheng Yu's younger brother in the original text, is obviously very powerful. , the capacity of the space system power is large and wide, how come I only have such a small amount in my hand, why is Jinsu so useless! And that damn cannon fodder, his good healing power has disappeared, he has become a space system, and he has a foxy face! Why do men look so good? Damn it if he looks better than me! What's even more damning is that he actually seduces Cheng Yu, who is the man she likes!

Shen Momo now firmly believes that she traveled to this world just to be the protagonist. She is the center of this world. As the protagonist of this article, Cheng Yu should be her man. She usually reads too many novels. When this kind of thing happens to her, she has already deeply transformed herself into the protagonist and is addicted to it.

When she finds a way to get other powers, especially the ice power, she will kill Lin Zhuo first and let him seduce Cheng Yu in front of her. He must like Cheng Yu, damn, okay Disgusting, he doesn't deserve to live in this world!

Shen Momo sorted out her mood and regrouped. She wanted to work hard to achieve her goal. She randomly picked a direction and walked forward.

......

"Host~"

"Are you awake?" Lin Zhuo, who randomly found a room to spend the night, was woken up by 0617 the next morning. He slept well last night, so he was in a good mood now and didn't get angry.

"I'm hungry." 0617 was a little embarrassed.

Lin Zhuo stretched out and got up from the bed, revealing a slim waist. 0617 consciously turned on the electricity in the house. Lin Zhuo simply tidied himself up, put on a shirt and went to the kitchen to make some simple food.

While enjoying breakfast, 0617 suddenly remembered: "Host, did we meet the heroine last night?"

"Yes." Lin Zhuo nodded, fiery red beads looming on his collar.

"Huh? Where is the second male lead? I remember that I should be with her?" 0617 was a little confused.

"Where do you think she got her space powers?"

"The second male?"

"Otherwise?" Lin Zhuo took a slow sip of the fruit drink in the world of cultivation. "Without the healing power, how could she keep Jinsu alive? So Jinsu naturally turned into a corpse, just like the original owner. .”

"Wow, what's the difference between this and robbery?" 0617 said angrily. There are no normal protagonists in these small worlds!

"She was originally a selfish thief. She was just trying to satisfy herself, so she kept robbing others. These became the nutrients for her great luck." Lin Zhuo said that after all, she is the heroine of a small world, and her luck is It was so normal to focus on her.

"It's so annoying. What if she sets her sights on you?" 0617 is a little worried about his host. What if that woman Shen Momo launches a sneak attack?

"I know her powers better than she does. If she wants to devour other people's powers, she has to be in close contact with others for at least three minutes. I won't give her this chance. I won't pay attention to her if she doesn't come to me. She If An An is safe, I will simply avoid the plot. If she insists on messing with me, I will simply click her away." Lin Zhuo understated that the tasks in this world are easier to complete than the previous world. Compared with a little thing like Shen Momo who couldn't make waves, he was still more concerned about whether Cheng Yun was Xie Jingran.

"Then I'll keep an eye on Shen Momo." 0617 said that it believed in the strength of its host, and opened the skill that can open the live broadcast of the male and female protagonists in the small world, and can report the information to Lin Zhuo at any time.

Lin Zhuo scratched its chin and praised it for its usefulness, which made 0617 so beautiful that his heart bubbling.

One person and one cat had a simple breakfast here, and then went back to their original residence. During this period, 0617 said to Lin Zhuo in surprise that after Cheng Yu returned to Chenguang, he quickly left the base alone and did not know where to go. where. Lin Zhuo only said that maybe he had his own arrangements.

But what people are concerned about is Shen Momo. After some exploration, she chose the path to Qiming Base, the refuge in S City. However, there were tens of thousands of zombies on the road. 0617 felt that it would be difficult for her to protect herself, but Lin Zhuo disagreed. , he heard that he firmly believed that Shen Momo could reach Qiming safely, and there was no way the small world would let its dear heroine have any problems.

As Lin Zhuo thought, Shen Momo came to the door of Qiming Base in a state of embarrassment. She was not hurt at all except that she was dusty and could not see her face. This made Shen Momo feel that she was the protagonist of this article. She She is here to save the apocalypse. Everyone in this world should surrender under her feet. She wants to become a master here! With great ambitions, Shen Momo joined Qiming Base.

In the next few months, Lin Zhuo didn't hear much about Shen Momo from 0617, because Lin Zhuo blocked all news about Shen Momo. He thought it would be more surprising, and he cared more about Cheng Yu than Shen Momo.

Although he hinted that he had to wait patiently, the thought that Cheng Yu was Xie Jingran kept swirling in his mind, making it impossible for him to calm down. He attributed it to missing Xie Jingran too much.

Because the place where he lived was still far away from City A, Lin Zhuo found a lame excuse to move a few times during this period. 0617 saw his host being harsh and saying that he was not used to living here, and then Lin Zhuo moved to the vicinity of City A.

0617 means what can it do, it is just a kitten. So it could only support it with both hands and feet. Although it felt that its host seemed to be a little empathetic, it apologized to Xie Jingran in its heart, and then happily welcomed the arrival of its host's new relationship.

But to 0617's disappointment, Lin Zhuo didn't see Cheng Yu after moving to the vicinity of City A. Because he can't be found.

Lin Zhuo would sometimes go out at night after 0617 fell asleep. He would avoid the base's equipment and go inside the base, trying to find Cheng Yu's residence. He didn't bring 0617 because he didn't want to hear its ridicule.

Lin Zhuo inquired about it in the base, and then went to the area near Cheng Yu's house several times. Not only did he not encounter him by chance, he also never saw any lights on in his house. After hearing other people's conversations, I realized that Cheng Yu hadn't been back for a long time. They said that Cheng Yu had gone crazy for some reason. He said that he wanted to improve his abilities and kept taking on tasks. Then he went out for a long time every time. The last time he came back, Cheng Yu He was already an eighth-level superpower, but he still seemed dissatisfied, so he didn't stop doing this at all. As for the Second Refuge Tidecaller Base, there was only one level seven superpower user. They could only lament Cheng Yu's progress and encourage themselves.

Lin Zhuo heard their conversation and didn't know where to look for Cheng Yu, but he also knew that it was basically impossible to meet him at the base. Coupled with the weather getting colder, Lin Zhuo was unwilling to go out. He could only stay at the base. I comfort myself in my heart, if it is that person, he will definitely come to look for me, and I still have a chance to confirm. After all, he has sworn to do it. Lin Zhuo believed that if it was really the same person, he would not let him down.

Entering the cold winter, one night, the ice and snow fell quietly. By the sunrise the next day, the earth was already white, as if it was covered with a white down jacket.

After 0617 woke up, it shouted to go out to play. It hadn't touched the snow yet. Lin Zhuo had no choice but to wrap himself up like a ball and take it out.

Lin Zhuo watched it playing in the snow and lamented that the winter in the last world was many times colder than that in the previous world. If it weren't for the fiery red bead around his neck that was emitting heat to warm him all the time, Lin Zhuo really felt that he couldn't survive it. , he is afraid of both cold and heat.

0617 is in a very happy mood now. It is not a real cat and cannot feel the cold, so it cannot stop playing.

Lin Zhuo didn't complain when he saw its appearance. He just thought the system was quite cute sometimes. He found a place to sit down, crossed his hands into his sleeves, hugged his knees, and put his face on his knees. Looking into the distance in trance.

He also went to look for Cheng Yu during this period, but found nothing. Apart from hearing from others that he had become stronger again, he had never even seen Cheng Yu.

He also went to the task hall to check the tasks that Cheng Yu had taken on. They were all too difficult tasks that others could not take on. Everyone thought that Cheng Yu felt that he was not strong enough. He was now strengthening his training and constantly challenging himself to break through his limits. .

Since he had no time to lead the team, he merged his Dawn Team with Mu Huaisheng's Swift Wolf Team, with Mu Huaisheng as the captain and Fu Yu as the deputy team. He became a technical consultant, and then he became even more busy and disappeared. Mu Huaisheng and Fu Yu also started to think that they were not strong enough and began to involve others. The first one to be affected was the team they merged with, the Breaking Waves team, followed by other teams.

This behavior made other captains yell: King Juan must die!

Lin Zhuo also followed the mission to the destination to look for traces of Cheng Yu. Every time, he could only see the remnants of the scene, which were caused by the deep pit caused by the dual power of thunder and fire. The edges were pitch black, and the scope was expanding every time. Sometimes there are only dark traces without potholes, which proves that Cheng Yu is making continuous progress, but after completing the task, he will go to other places for who knows what, so Lin Zhuo can't find him every time.

Could it be that I guessed wrong? Isn't Cheng Yu that person? That's why he doesn't want to find him? Or is it because you're tired of it?

At this time, many negative thoughts would pop up in Lin Zhuo's mind. If he couldn't get a definite answer, he could only let these thoughts grow wildly until they overwhelmed his spirit.

Ah, it turns out that I am so seriously ill. Lin Zhuo thought to himself.

Lin Zhuo sat motionless, his expression dull, like a stone statue, not even noticing anyone approaching. 0617 wanted to remind him, but was stopped by the visitor's eyes. It had to pretend that it didn't see it, and then apologized to Xie Jingran again in its heart, saying that it didn't mean it, but it seemed that it couldn't afford to offend the visitor's aura.

"Why are you sitting here in a daze? Isn't it cold?"

Lin Zhuo blinked when he heard the words, and his wandering thoughts returned on the spot. He looked at the familiar man squatting down, and felt aggrieved. He obviously wasn't like this before, but now he couldn't control it when he saw his face.

"Cheng Yu." Lin Zhuo shouted softly.
