Then, a middle-aged man in a white coat, with gray hair and black-framed glasses walked in.

Seeing the scene in the living room, the middle-aged man frowned unhappily and shouted: "What are you doing?"

Wu Min leaned lazily on the sofa, turning a deaf ear to the man's words.

"Captain Chen, take your fiancée and brother and leave first."

"As for your brother's injury, I will make compensation. I hope this incident will not affect our cooperation."

The middle-aged man turned around with an apologetic look on his face and spoke in a friendly manner.

Chen Kai clenched his fists in anger, but when he thought of the man's identity, he could only let go helplessly and said with a smile: "Dr. Li, you are thoughtful."

After Chen Kai and the other two left, Li Cangnan looked at Wu Min with a gloomy expression.

“Human life is worthless.”

"I didn't realize you were so vicious."

Wu Min gave a sarcastic smile: "Vicious?"

"You can even use your own son for experiments. Is there anyone in this world more vicious than you?"

"Ignorant of human life?"

"Li Cangnan, are there not enough wronged souls in your laboratory?"

"We are... the same."

"You are simply unreasonable."

"I warn you, don't touch those two, otherwise..."

Li Cangnan cursed angrily, threw up his sleeves, and went upstairs angrily.

Unable to argue, just pretend to be deaf and dumb.

Wu Min's eyes flashed with coldness: "Da Fei, go find the woman selling peaches."

"Yes."

……

Under the dark night, a faint halo flickered, illuminating Lin Xiyao's way home.

In the shack, under the kerosene lamp, Chu Mingxuan lowered his head, his slender fingers sliding quickly on his watch.

What exactly is hot pot?

The search results came out and Chu Mingxuan couldn't wait to read them.

The more I looked, the more frightened I became.

The world sixty years ago was called the "Civilized Era" by them.

It is the life that all wastelanders yearn for most.

At that time, technology was advanced, traffic was bustling, the world was peaceful, and people lived comfortably without having to face the dangers of strange beasts or zombies.

There is clean water, fashionable clothes, endless bread, milk, hot pot...

Chu Mingxuan's eyes are deep.

Could it be that Lin Xiyao was from sixty years ago?

The next moment, he suddenly remembered something Lin Xiyao said that he couldn't understand.

"piss off."

Chu Mingxuan immediately searched quickly.

result.

Uh.

This is actually a curse word, and it’s in dialect.

Chu Mingxuan: "..."

Now he was sure.

Thinking back to the first time they met, Lin Xiyao was trapped in a deep pit with a pool of dried blood in the pit, but there were no wounds on her body.

At the time, he thought it was left by someone else.

Now that I think about it...

"Squeak."

At this time, the door was pushed open.

When she saw Chu Mingxuan, Lin Xiyao couldn't help but be stunned.

Isn't he asleep yet?

"Yaoyao, here are two sets of clothes for changing."

Chu Mingxuan came back to his senses, gathered all his thoughts, and handed over the small cloth bag in his arms.

"Thank you."

"By the way, I'll return the dagger to you."

Lin Xiyao took the cloth bag, took off the dagger from her waist and returned it to Chu Mingxuan.

"I found a machete at the market today."

"Keep the dagger for self-defense."

"Chu Mingxuan, is there any fruit forest or something nearby?"

"I want to pick some fruits and make fruit wine."

Chu Mingxuan was stunned: "You can also make wine?"

Lin Xiyao asked back: "You don't know how to do it?"

"Fruit wine is very simple, it just needs to be sealed and fermented."

Chu Mingxuan: "..."

No need to guess.

He was 100% sure that Lin Xiyao was the person from sixty years ago.

"Chu Mingxuan, are you okay?"

Chu Mingxuan suddenly came back to his senses: "I know a grape grove. I'll send you the coordinates tomorrow."

"it is good."

……

The next day, Chu Mingxuan posted the location of the grape collection point.

Lin Xiyao planned the route and set off with a bottle of nutrient solution.

Go out to scavenge and collect, and be gone all day.

Dry food is a must.

But she did not tell Chu Mingxuan about the space.

It's not distrust.

But no matter when, you must leave a way out for yourself.

Space is her biggest secret and trump card. Once there is danger, it is also the basis for her to save her life and escape.

It’s better to keep one hand if you can.

After following the navigation route for about two hours, Lin Xiyao found the grape grove.

There was a riot of colour before my eyes. Grape vines as thick as wrists covered the ruins, and they were hung with crystal clear grapes.

Lin Xiyao was stunned for several seconds.

How did Chu Mingxuan find such a good place?

and.

With so many grapes, won’t the scavengers come to pick them?

What Lin Xiyao didn't know was that the gathering areas in the forest were divided into areas.

Each major mercenary group has its own territory. Chu Mingxuan, as the leader of the strongest group, owns the most territories and is the only one who selflessly donates his gathering grounds.

In other gathering places, scavengers have to pay if they want to collect supplies in places where supplies are abundant.

The watch showed that the ruins ahead were a supply and rest station, but it was attacked by a tide of alien beasts ten years ago and became abandoned.

In other words, this ruin is still quite dangerous.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiyao released her mental power.

Safety.

No one was around.

There are no strange beasts that steal food or ambush.

After a moment, Lin Xiyao rolled up her sleeves and started working with confidence.

"Damn... the toxin content is 60%, not recommended for consumption."

"Damn... the toxin content is 35%, it is recommended to consume in small amounts."

Lin Xiyao: "..."

The tempting grapes, a bunch weighs more than ten pounds, each one is juicy, as big as a ping-pong ball, and crystal clear.

Very lovable.

However, grapes are different from mulberries. In a bunch of grapes, there are those with high toxin content and those with low toxin content.

How to deal with this?

Thinking about the wine to be brewed, Lin Xiyao could only be patient and test them one by one.

Time passed quietly.

Lin Xiyao didn't stop until her stomach started to growl.

The ground was in mess.

The ground was covered with highly toxic grapes, and only a small half of the grapes in the backpack were edible.

Lin Xiyao: "..."

Ideals are beautiful, but reality is too cruel.

At her current rate, she wouldn't be able to finish surveying the entire vineyard in a week, nor would she be able to harvest many edible grapes.

Sudden.

Lin Xiyao curled her lips and smiled.

Just take them all back and measure them slowly so that she doesn't have to run back and forth.

Just do it.

Lin Xiyao took out a scimitar, and with a "whoosh", a whole bunch of grapes fell down.

Lin Xiyao raised her hand and took the grapes, and they were stored in the space.

Convenient and fast.

In this way, Lin Xiyao shuttled through the grape grove, became addicted to picking grapes unknowingly, and gradually moved away from the ruins.

Not until the space was almost full did Lin Xiyao stop and slowly raised her eyes.

There are no more grape vines around here, and there is a dense forest ahead.

All you can see are towering trees with a thick layer of dead branches and leaves. The light in the forest is dim, and the air is hot and humid.

Next to the thick tree trunk, there grows a mushroom that is bigger than a washbasin.

The pink, wrist-thick mushroom stem looks like a red umbrella.

"Fuck."

“Are the mushrooms here this big?”

If she could find a non-toxic mushroom, it would be enough for her to eat for the whole day.

Lin Xiyao said in disbelief and ran towards the forest.
