Age of Behemoths

As soon as Shen Yifei opened his eyes, he realized that he was no longer where he was lying yesterday, but... somehow ran to Qin Jixun's side - he didn't go to sleep in the nest yesterday, but was with Qin Jixun Also spread a blanket on the ground and put some clothes on it, and it was used as a bed.

Qin Jixun's slightly dry lips were in front of him, and Shen Yifei's two arms were tightly holding Qin Jixun's intact left arm in his arms.Shen Yifei licked his lips, secretly rejoicing in his stomach that he didn't have the habit of drooling and grinding his teeth, otherwise...

Fortunately, Qin Jixun hadn't woken up yet, and he seemed to be sleeping peacefully. Shen Yifei only dared to peek at Qin Jixun's sleeping face, and got up immediately.When he came back with Xiao Ji's bottle and breakfast, Qin Jixun had just woken up—or at least he seemed to have just woken up.

Of course, Shen Yifei himself would not "confess", he didn't sleep well in the middle of the night, so he rolled to Qin Jixun's side.However, can you try rolling again next time?

Yesterday it was only Shen Yifei himself, it's okay for him to wake up hungry and follow out in the morning.However, now that there is the injured Qin Jixun and Little Thorn, Shen Yifei will not let the two of them go out hungry. Besides, he also brought biscuits and Little Thorn's milk.Qin Jixun also carried a bag. In addition, the little thorn was hung on his chest by the baby sling.

However, Shen Yifei miscalculated the number of people for breakfast, especially after they had moved from the "single room" in the Mickey store to the "community house" in the lobby... First, they simply came over with their big tails upright and peas eyes, Divided a bowl.Then Teddy also came over humming, and almost pushed Shen Yifei to the ground, but Shen Yifei only took two mouthfuls of oatmeal and it all went into Teddy's stomach.However, Qin Jixun is good if he is full... Shen Yifei thought as he walked out side by side with Qin Jixun while eating biscuits.

At the entrance of the supermarket, Teddy didn't show any surprise when he saw Qin Jixun's joining. He just tilted his head for a second look, and then continued on his way.But the crispy noodles were extremely excited, jumping around with wide eyes, and yelling twice from time to time.

"Huh?" After walking for a long time, Shen Yifei found a different place.

"What's the matter?" The weight of the little thorn and the backpack made Qin Jixun not refuse Shen Yifei's hand to help him. As for giving the little thorn and the backpack to Shen Yifei?That just made Shen Yifei feel bound when facing possible battles or conflicts.

"Teddy took another path, which is different from yesterday's. Originally, I wanted to introduce Diego to you, but today's path probably won't meet him." No matter how lacking in biological knowledge, Shen Yifei I also know that felines are big and have territories. Yesterday, Diego looked lazy, and most of the places where he basked in the sun belonged to him.

The two of them were talking, when Gan Crispy Noodles suddenly yelled, very sharp and short.Both Shen Yifei and Qin Jixun looked at it, but the crispy noodles stopped barking immediately.

"Strange." Shen Yifei didn't understand what the crispy noodles meant, he was simply moved by the strangeness, and the crispy noodles yelled again immediately.

Shen Yifei and Qin Jixun looked at each other, and they understood that the crisp noodles were telling them not to talk.But what's around here?Why do you want to make the crispy noodles so nervous?The two of them paid attention to Teddy again. Teddy's footsteps were very slow, but it could also be said that his footsteps were too steady now, as if he was careful not to cause too much vibration.By the way, there is also the little thorn. When he first went out, he was screaming "ahhhh" happily. I don't know when, the little guy suddenly became extremely quiet.

But their quietness does not mean that the place is dead.There are still insects and birds singing around here. In fact, Shen Yifei has never seen a situation where everything fell into dead silence, including when Teddy and the pigeon feather dragons were fighting, there were always some people who were not involved in danger. Animals or insects huddled in a corner and sang their own songs.

It's dangerous here, but what danger is it?Shen Yifei looked at Qin Jixun and noticed that Qin Jixun was frowning and focused.Obviously, he was also looking for danger in the air, but... In the end, the only answer he could give Shen Yifei was to shake his head.They were both curious, but no one offered to leave the team to find out what it was that was peeping in the dark.

They followed Teddy quietly, and maintained sufficient vigilance.I don't know how long it took, Teddy relaxed, his footsteps became leisurely again, and he began to look down on the ground again to find all the food that could be put into his mouth.Fried hair all over the body, the crispy noodles that looked fatter again, jumped up and down around their energetic bodies again, and the little thorn's "ahhhh" cheering voice showed that he was extremely happy.Obviously, all this tells them that the danger has passed.

"I saw a barbecue restaurant just now, and the signboard said 'charcoal grilled fish'." While heaving a sigh of relief, Shen Yifei told Qin Jixun his discovery a little depressed.

Grilling fish with charcoal, of course Shen Yifei didn't think about the fish in the store, he was thinking about charcoal.Even if it's been a year, and the weather is humid, but the place where the charcoal is stored in the barbecue shop, there will be some moisture-proof measures, right?So, they should be able to find some charcoal that still works.

But what is depressing is that the barbecue restaurant should still be in the danger zone.

"Shen Yifei, don't take risks. If the solid alcohol is used up, there will be no wood." Qin Jixun shook his head, "It's not worth it to face unknown dangers for the sake of charcoal."

"Hmm..." Shen Yifei thought for a while, then nodded, indeed, if it is really in such a situation where there is no urgent need, and he died just to light charcoal, it would be too stupid and not worth it.

Continuing to move forward, all kinds of shops suddenly disappeared, not even the toll booths of China Unicom and China Mobile.

"By the way, there is the unfinished bridge in front." Shen Yifei remembered - the unfinished viaduct was originally called Xinkai Bridge, but the real name is rarely called by people, but they are used to calling it unfinished bridge.Originally, due to the construction of the high-speed road, the surrounding urban construction had a certain deviation, but as a result, the high-speed detour made it not just the viaduct that was unfinished.Many surrounding buildings also stopped working, and then, the volcano erupted...

At least until Shen Yifei fell asleep, even if it was a completed residential building, the occupancy rate was less than [-]%.Back then this place was known as a "ghost area", and now it looks even more "ghostly".

"Yes! It's true that we're going to the Lanwei Bridge here." Qin Jixun is a local, but he doesn't come here often, and the changes in the whole city have been turned upside down, so now that Shen Yifei mentioned it, he remembered it. What kind of place is this place? "This is going to the suburbs. I can still see wheat fields and vegetable fields. I don't know if they still exist."

"It's very possible, but it's a mutation."

Qin Jixun nodded depressedly: "That's right, it's mutated. In this world, there are things that are not mutated, but rather strange."

"I haven't mutated! I mean...not my body, but my mood." Shen Yifei looked at Qin Jixun. Although he had been dating, he always felt that something was missing. Only at this moment did he realize what it was. What, that is, although the oolong incident happened, he has not actually confessed to Qin Jixun, "I...before these things happened, when I was still in the fast food restaurant, I kept looking at you. When I went to work for the second time, I already... Cough! I like you."

Qin Jixun was taken aback for a moment, so Shen Yifei wasn't alone because he was too lonely, had a physical need, or was impulsive, but really... However, Qin Jixun didn't know how to deal with such a confession—at least At this stage, he can't answer "I like you too" or something like that.

After pondering for a long time, Qin Jixun finally said, "I...I believe in you."

And although it is just "believe", a simple word, but for Shen Yifei, there is no more beautiful word and more beautiful voice than this in this world.Unless, one day Qin Jixun will say "I love you" to him, then "I believe in you" will take a back seat.

The road they took was actually much shorter than the one to the lake yesterday.

The unfinished level of this unfinished bridge is even worse than Shen Yifei and Qin Jixun imagined, because there are almost only bridge piers left here, and the bridge deck, which was originally only incomplete, has completely collapsed. Lost.

The grass here is also higher than other places, and the highest place almost reaches Shen Yifei's chest, so he and Shen Yifei are simply full, and they all follow behind Teddy obediently. The vibration caused by Teddy's walking makes the hidden All the worm snakes in the shadows escaped cleanly. Its heavy limbs flattened the blades of grass, making the ground flat, and the ditches that might become traps were exposed.

In addition to grass, the most plants here are a kind of plant that Shen Yifei has never seen in other places before. It is not a fern, but it should be arbor, because they have obvious wooden trunks.The tallest tree of this kind only reaches Shen Yifei's chest. The leaves are oval-shaped, and the tree is densely packed with a kind of fruit that looks like hawthorn, but it is slightly larger than hawthorn, about the size of a walnut.

The bright red fruit looks very attractive, but the gluttonous Teddy and crispy noodles don't even look at it. Of course, Shen Yifei and Qin Jixun will not be stupid enough to try it.

After arriving under the unfinished bridge, Teddy immediately found a place to lie down. It seems that this place is the destination?

The place where it lies is an included angle, one side is a bridge pier, and the other angles are blocked by large pieces of concrete that have collapsed (should be the original bridge deck), plus the thick grass, even Teddy's The big man can also cover it well, it seems that Teddy is familiar with this place.

With a roof and walls, this place looks almost like a "temporary building".Teddy easily tucked his bulk in and his entire bear was covered in no time.Shen Yifei took a look, and supported Qin Jixun and him to sit on a concrete slab beside Teddy.
