16 Honey Rose

The second family's house was in a mess. The old, low brick house had only half of the door left.

Lu Bei'er observed the only two houses. There were only two rooms in total, including the main room and the bedroom. In the simple shed next to them, there was an earthen stove for cooking and a warehouse for storing farm tools and sundries. There were no formal doors on either side. They were either separated by curtains or blocked by pieced-together wooden boards.

The family conditions are average.

But the most important thing was that she found dried blood on the floor of the bedroom and the main room, as well as some scattered, fallen and broken tables, chairs and basins, which showed what had happened in the family at that time.

Judging from some worn-out quilts in the bedroom and some old-fashioned clothes in the closet, there should have been only one or two elderly people living in this house.

In the end times, the elderly and children have less resistance than adults, so they are more likely to mutate into zombies.

There should be zombies in this house, and there were casualties. The army should have cleared out the zombies or corpses when they left. This was convenient for Lu Beier. She didn't find any food, so it should have been moved away. Elderly people in rural areas would store some food at home.

There were basically no seasonings in the kitchen, only a few bamboo baskets hanging on the beams of the house for storing sundries. When they were taken down, they were all packed with seeds in several cloth bags, including watermelon seeds, winter melon seeds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and some melon seeds that Lu Beier didn't recognize.

There was a whole basket filled with dried peanuts.

There is also a basket filled with various beans, such as lentils, soybeans, broad beans, sword beans, red beans and mung beans, mixed with some other unknown beans in black, red and mottled colors.

There is also a basket filled with common vegetable seeds, such as amaranth, coriander, chrysanthemum, mustard, lettuce, lettuce...

At this time, Xiaojiu in the consciousness began to get excited, "Host! Quick! Recycle it and earn points!"

Although she looked down on this impatient little creature, she still picked up the seeds that it had not collected and collected a few of each for it.

Suddenly, a series of "ding ding" sounds rang in her head, and she knew that among the remaining unknown seeds, in addition to those that the system could not name, there were also seeds of fruits that she only recognized: cucumber, gourd and bottle gourd.

After finally finding a few farm tools with smooth handles, Lu Bei'er felt that there was nothing else she needed.

Just as she was about to leave, she stopped when she passed a few bumps on a mottled earthen wall. The small speaker on her shoulder had been diligently illuminating her without even shaking.

So in this dim warehouse, she could clearly see the dry mud stuck on the earth wall. She scraped off a piece of dry mud with a sickle. When the mud fell into the palm of her hand, her consciousness made a "ding" sound.

"Are the cantaloupe seeds that were found to be non-mutated recovered?"

"Recycle!"

She heard the news that the recycling was successful, but the mud in her hand seemed to be still there. She squeezed it hard and it broke into powder. There was indeed nothing left inside.

Lu Beier used the sickle to scrape off the remaining four lumps of earth on the wall. The lumps of earth she broke open were indeed filled with seeds, including those of cucumber, sweet melon, crisp melon, and honeydew melon.

The seeds look exactly the same, but in fact each piece of mud contains different seeds.

"Host! Why do you use clods of earth to wrap the seeds?" Xiao Jiu expressed his confusion.

"Some old people in the countryside seal their seeds this way, so they can still plant them next year."

After looting this house, he went to the next one. Before leaving, he touched the little trumpet's head on his shoulder to give her some supernatural power. It made lighting much more convenient.

"Host, if you want your ability to advance as quickly as possible, you must run it all the time. Even when you sleep at night, you must keep it running in your mind. This way, not only you, but also your plant pet will grow!"

Lu Beier was a little annoyed when she heard this, "You should have told me this yesterday! I wasted a whole day from waking up yesterday afternoon to this afternoon!"

Xiao Jiu lowered his voice in his consciousness, "I'm sorry! Host! I...I forgot to say it!"

"Forget it! Next time if there is anything I don't understand, remember to tell me in advance!" After saying that, he began to consciously operate the wood-related ability.

Once the supernatural power was activated, the perception of the surroundings seemed to become stronger. He could vaguely feel the wood energy absorbed from all around, and the feeling was more obvious in places with abundant wood energy.

It’s not Xiaojiu’s fault. She’s still not used to her newly awakened superpowers. But she will probably get used to it after using them more often.

Then, the third house they went to was a small courtyard with roses climbing all over the wall. Lu Beier immediately fell in love with those gorgeous purple roses that exuded a faint fragrance in the air.

Pushing open the iron gate and walking into the rose wall, the wood-type power just touched them, feeling the joy and gentle energy coming from them.

This is a positively mutated rose, without any violent emotions. She wanted to take a branch of it back home. The small yard where she lived had almost no flowers and was bare, with concrete floor. But it didn't matter, she could probably plant this rose by shoveling a little concrete floor.

Just as she was admiring the rose wall, suddenly, the rose flower less than a meter in front of her trembled, and a small black shadow quickly shot towards her face.

The unclear black shadow was moving too fast and too close, and Lu Beier had no time to react.

Just as she instinctively covered her face and stepped back, a shrill squeaking sound came into her ears.

It's a mouse.

When Lu Beier opened her eyes, she saw that it was indeed a huge black rat with a fierce light in its reddish-brown eyes. At this moment, it was tightly entangled and hung up by a thin branch of the trumpet.

She seemed to have smelled the stench emanating from the rat. It was obviously very close to her. Only one step away and her face would be in trouble.

Whether it's being bitten by it or being scratched by its claws, it's simply unimaginable!

It’s too thrilling!

Fortunately, there is a small speaker.

"Host! Host! Are you okay?" Xiaojiu was also very scared. Its host had finally survived, and no more accidents could happen to him.

“Thanks to the trumpet!”

Lu Beier touched the little trumpet's head on her shoulder with gratitude, and the little cat rubbed its owner's palm obediently.

"Host, it's a good thing that you were running your wood power just now! When you were running your power, the wood energy of the trumpet also followed your power trajectory and circulated. Therefore, when you instinctively sensed the danger and wanted to resist, the trumpet sensed your consciousness in the first place and responded quickly. Otherwise, it would not have such a fast reaction ability!"
