"Three or four thousand?"

After hearing this number, Bian Junwu's tone was slightly surprised.

He glanced around.

The defense project is very simple, not even crude compared to other major bases.

It was freezing cold, and although there were many people in the Snow Worship Sect, they did not have enough energy to build strong defenses.

You can only rely on the existing environment to fight zombies.

And the group that once numbered tens of thousands of people, after a long battle with the zombies, only three to four thousand people died, which had to be said to be very surprising to him.

"So, how do you solve the food problem?"

"To support thousands of people in the apocalypse requires a huge amount of food. I'm curious how you do it?"

Bian Junwu's words made everyone in the Snow Worship Sect a little wary.

Food source is the core issue for any power.

If Bian Junwu was not from the Jiangnan region, raising this question would definitely be regarded as looking for trouble.

Zheng Yixian hesitated for a moment, but replied: "We will search for buried supermarkets and shopping malls in the surrounding areas to obtain food or other survival supplies."

"Oh, is that all?"

Bian Junwu looked at Zheng Yixian, his gaze was invisible under the toad mirror, but everyone could feel that he did not believe what he said.

Because in this environment, searching for food also requires a huge amount of energy.

How can the Snow Worship Cult dig out food from a depth of more than ten meters under the snowdrift, and then continuously supply it to thousands of people, and even once reached tens of thousands of followers?

The expressions on the faces of Zheng Yixian and a group of priests and priests were a little strange.

Everyone could tell that they were hiding some huge secret about their food.

The atmosphere at the scene became tense.

Baili Changqing and other members of the investigation team looked at Zheng Yixian and others with playful faces, and they had a vague guess in their hearts.

And this kind of speculation is not uncommon in the apocalypse.

Wu Di said: "With nearly half of the congregation dead, we can indeed feed the remaining people, right?"

As soon as these words came out, the Snow Worshipers exploded on the spot!

Han Chang shouted with disgust: "No nonsense! We never do that kind of thing!"

Dai Mei frowned and retorted: "Don't compare us with those beasts."

Wu Di shrugged and said with a slightly teasing look in his eyes: "Then it's impossible for you to survive by drinking the northwest wind, right?"

"you……"

"That's enough, don't talk yet."

Just when the two sides were about to quarrel, Zheng Yixian and Bian Junwu stopped them in unison.

Zheng Yixian took a deep breath, bowed to Bian Junwu and said:

"There are indeed some secrets in this, but it is related to the survival of our Snow Worship Cult, so we will not mention it to outsiders."

"Oh, is it so?"

Bian Junwu's voice was still cold, but he seemed to be questioning Zheng Yixian.

Can't we even know?

At this time, any ulterior secrets may be related to the zombie wave.

Bian Junwu had suspected that the tide of corpses was actually deliberately caused by local forces in Tianhai City.

Zheng Yixian raised his head and took a deep look at Bian Junwu, "If you must want to know, I can answer it for you."

Bian Junwu said: "Okay."

Zheng Yixian stood up straight and said, "Please follow me!"

Han Chang and Dai Mei behind him were a little anxious.

"High Priest, can you tell outsiders this kind of thing?"

Zheng Yixian waved his hands towards them: "It doesn't matter, everyone in the investigation team is from Jiangnan Region, and they don't look down on us."

The priests and priests under his command were very anxious and unwilling to reveal the secrets of the Snow Worship Cult.

Because they know that once this secret is known to other forces in Tianhai City, it will be a huge weakness for them to be taken advantage of by the other party.

Even these people from the Jiangnan region may covet the treasure.

That thing is the foundation of the Snow Worship Cult’s existence to this day!

But as the high priest, Zheng Yixian's status is second only to the leader Yuan Kongye. What he has decided cannot be violated by others.

Zheng Yixian led Bian Junwu and others towards the abandoned building next to St. John's Cathedral.

When he arrived in front of the building, Bian Junwu's footsteps suddenly stopped.

He frowned.

Because the building in front of him gave him a very bad feeling.

The gray reinforced concrete building sticks straight into the snow, resembling a funeral coffin.

Bian Junwu's keen intuition reminded him that it was best not to approach this place.

Baili Changqing also came over and whispered: "Captain, what a strong smell of blood!"

At this time, Zheng Yixian in front turned back to look at them, with a strange smile on his lips.

"Everyone, this is the secret of the Snow Worship Cult. Do you still want to come over and take a look?"

Wu Di crossed his arms and sneered: "Pretend to be a ghost!"

Bian Junwu adjusted his glasses and followed him in silently.

There was one thing he didn't tell his team members.

After losing his sight, his senses became sharper.

Just now, he "saw" something very strange outside the building.

In front of him, this was not an abandoned commercial building.

But a huge, ferocious monster!

Hundreds of meters high, countless limbs dance wildly, and there are tangled root systems underground.

A group of people entered the building through the entrance, and the bloody smell became even stronger.

But this bloody smell was a little unusual. It didn't look like the smell of a dead thing, but like it had just flowed out of a living person.

So fresh, so rich, not pungent, even a little psychedelic and sweet.

As they gradually went deeper, they finally saw the face of the monster.

The entire building is occupied by a huge strange plant.

Its vines and leaves covered the entire building, and the bright red branches and leaves on the walls exuded a strange dark red luster.

On the branches, you can see bright red fruits.

When Bian Junwu and others saw such a scene, they understood something.

"Is this the food you need to survive?"

Zheng Yixian reached out and picked a red fruit from the branch and handed it to Bian Junwu.

"Yes, this is a mutant plant we discovered. We call it blood vine."

"It has extremely powerful vitality and can absorb nutrients from everything around it, then transform it into its own vitality and bear fruit."

"This red fruit is an important food source for us."

Bian Junwu glanced at the red fruit handed over by Zheng Yixian and slowly grabbed it in his hand.

He didn't eat it, but looked at it carefully.

Zheng Yixian smiled and said: "Don't worry, this fruit is non-toxic. We have been eating it for more than a few months and no one has found any abnormalities due to it."

Bian Junwu said calmly: "That makes sense. But, will the fruit it produces be enough for thousands of you to eat?"

Zheng Yixian continued to walk forward.

"Normal fruit is not enough. But there are ways to speed up the speed of fruit production. For example, this."

As he spoke, he pointed to the ceiling in front of him.

Bian Junwu and others raised their heads and saw an ellipsoid-shaped thing hanging on the ceiling.

The red branches and leaves tightly wrapped it up, faintly emitting a faint red light.

When you look closely, you can see that it actually has the shape of a human body.

"Is this...human?"

Meng Siyu couldn't help but widen her eyes.

“Do you use human beings as nourishment to make them bear fruit?”

Zheng Yixian said expressionlessly: "To be precise, they are human remains."
