Cats grow fields in the apocalyptic wasteland

Honeysuckle spoke very calmly.

After Xia Maomao heard this, her fur almost exploded.

His wide cat eyes revealed fear, "What do you mean—all animals and plants undergo secondary mutation?!"

"Maybe not the second time." Honeysuckle said, "Your human theory, when toxic substances appear in the environment, through the food chain relationship, toxic substances will gradually accumulate in higher organisms?"

Xia Lunong asked: "You mean, what caused this mutation was some kind of substance deposited in the body of the mutant animal?"

"I don't know." Honeysuckle said, "I can't get more cutting-edge and more effective information. But aren't you humans already aware of this and never eat animals and plants that have mutated too much?"

Xia Maomao murmured: "That's because eating animals and plants that mutate too much will directly cause us to get sick, not because we know that enrichment of harmful substances will cause distortion."

Xia Maomao recalled how many prey their family had eaten in the past six months, and fear gradually surged in their hearts.

"No!" Xia Maomao suddenly recalled, staring at it, "If you follow this theory, you will not compost giant cows at all. Composting is actually a kind of enrichment. If what you do will cause distortion, you will soon It becomes distorted."

"Having said that, how do you know I'm not deformed?"

Xia Maomao stared at it, trembling in fright, the cat's claws could barely hold the vine in its arms, "You, don't make such a joke."

"I'm not joking."

After Honeysuckle finished saying this, the branches and leaves trembled.It also used branches and leaves before, but it had never been like this before, and the whole ground trembled faintly.

The giant wolf took two steps back vigilantly with the cat in its mouth.

Others were also ready for battle.

The honeysuckle didn't mean to attack them, it just turned its roots up and brought up a lot of dirt in the process.

The dark brown soil was surging, and at the same time, there was a particularly unpleasant rancid smell.

Everyone present had a keen sense of smell, especially the giant wolf and Xia Maomao who had turned into beasts, wrinkled their noses and backed away repeatedly.

All of a sudden, there were retching sounds at the scene one after another.

This smell rushed into the nasal cavity, it was like a ""dagger stabbed hard into the soft nasal cavity, which made people feel painful.

"Meow" Xia Maomao wailed, flicked its tail back and forth, and spread its paws, urging his brother to back up.

It smells too bad, he can't stand it!

Honeysuckle's movements did not stop.

Soon, its roots came up, and a huge ball hung from the black roots.

Xia Maomao originally thought it was a lump of soil, but after it turned the root up completely and saw it clearly, he realized that it was actually a root of honeysuckle, which was rotting like a lump of tumor and leaking wet juice!

Honeysuckle's weak voice came, "As you can see, this is my distortion."

This sight is too shocking.

Xia Maomao flicked its tail, not knowing what to say.

Honeysuckle didn't show the meaning of its roots much, and gave Xia Mao Mao and the others a look, then stuffed it back under the soil.

This process brought another shock, and everyone almost couldn't stand still.

It took a long time before the honeysuckle stuffed the rotten root like a tumor into the soil.

The pungent smell in the air gradually dissipated, and under the evening light, the gold and silver flowers were still radiant among the green leaves.

Xia Maomao looked at these flowers again, and couldn't help shivering.

Honeysuckle: "This kind of distortion has already occurred before my consciousness was awakened. Now I can only try to absorb as little nutrition as possible from those animals that have mutated too much, so as to delay the process of this kind of distortion."

Xia Maomao thought of the honeysuckle flowers in their truck, "Do you also have that kind of distortion-causing substance in your flowers?"

"Probably not." Honeysuckle said, "Flowers are very fragile and can't bear foreign objects. The substances that cause distortion in my body have been pressed into the root system by me. Of course, I'm just talking, I don't necessarily know about my own situation. Be clear."

Honeysuckle faced Xia Maomao, who was almost completely sluggish, and said, "But don't worry too much? After so long after the catastrophe, I have never heard of human distortion. Humans seem to have only two manifestations: normal and dead."

"My mind is a little confused." Xia Maomao was stunned for a while, "Why would you tell us frankly about this kind of thing?"

"It's probably because of sincerity that you can get your sincerity." Honeysuckle said, "In the words of you humans, there are countless smart people in the world, and no matter how clever a lie is, it will be seen through one day."

Xia Maomao was shocked, "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Honeysuckle said lightly, "What I said may not be the truth. I don't know much about distortion. You humans need to explore it yourself. I hope you can tell me the corresponding research results when you go to the appointment next spring."

Xia Maomao solemnly said, "I will, if we have one."

"There is no need to doubt this. Many of you humans are smart people." Honeysuckle's voice sounded a little tired, "It's getting dark, don't you need to go back?"

Xia Maomao knew it was seeing off a guest, sighed, and was about to say goodbye to it.

Just when he was about to urge his brother to leave, he asked mysteriously, "What should you do? How can we help you?"

"You want to help me?" Honeysuckle's voice sounded very surprised, "You want to help a guy like me who doesn't know whether it's an enemy or a friend?"

Xia Maomao said: "Without harming my own interests, I really want to help you."

Honeysuckle seemed to smile, "Thank you. I didn't expect to meet such an unexpected joy."

Xia Maomao emphasized, "The premise is not to harm my own interests."

"I know." Honeysuckle's tone was very gentle, "If you want, you can take a part of my body out and find a fertile place to plant it again. If this part of my body dies, the consciousness will be in the part you took away. Waking up in the main body."

Xia Maomao asked: "What if this part of your body is okay?"

Honeysuckle replied: "Then it is an ordinary honeysuckle."

Xia Maomao nodded, "I promise, I will find another place to plant your body, but it will not be planted in our base."

"Understood." Honeysuckle said, "Then I'll trouble you, I'll cut a piece of the main body out."

After the honeysuckle finished speaking, it pulled out the root system again, countless flower vines shook, and the earth shook.

Its black-brown root system drilled out of the soil like a python, and its stench surged.

Xia Maomao's fluffy cat face was serious, but he didn't retreat or avoid, and looked at the scene in front of him without blinking.

Honeysuckle quickly cuts out a section of green vine with root system from the root.

Other honeysuckle vines are all brown, but this section of vines is fresh green, and even the root system underneath looks tender and plump.

Honeysuckle wrapped the green vine with roots with branches, gently handed it to Xiamaomao, and said weakly: "Please, find a fertile and safe place to plant it."

Xia Maomao nodded solemnly, spread its paws, and hugged the vine in its furry arms.

Honeysuckle smiled lightly and said, "It's lucky to know you."

Xia Maomao: "Me too."

Honeysuckle said: "I'm going to fall into a deep sleep temporarily, goodbye."

Xia Maomao: "Goodbye."

The honeysuckle branches trembled, as if saying goodbye to Xia Mao Mao and the others, and then quickly stopped moving.

Its upturned root system has not been tidied up, and its leaves are also in a mess, as if it has been destroyed by a strong typhoon on a typhoon day.

Xia Maomao said "Treasure" in his heart, looked up at his brother, "Meow."

This is to let his brother take him back.

The giant wolf complied.

Soon, a wolf and a cat returned to the truck and turned back into human form.

While getting dressed, Xia Lunong muffledly recounted the conversation with Honeysuckle.

Yan Xi Nian said: "The matter of distortion is no small matter. After we go back, we will send a telegram to contact other bases to see if any bases have produced research results. Don't worry now, it is not a day or two for a catastrophe to happen. We have eaten so much food , if this theory is really followed, human beings would have become extinct long ago.”

Xia Lunong responded with a serious face, looked down at the two honeysuckle vines, and sighed silently.

Xia Huoqu rubbed his head, "Let's study slowly after we go back."

Xia Lunong asked: "Then shall we go to the city?"

"Don't enter for the time being." Yan Xiannian said, "Since Honeysuckle has specifically reminded, most of the city is indeed very dangerous. Besides, this time we have collected a lot of materials and information. Go back and digest it first."

They now have a total of four trucks, with limited transportation capacity, and no matter how much more supplies they collect, they will not be able to transport them back.

Xia Huo's channel: "Let's have a good rest tonight, and we will accompany Lao Liu and Dr. Ou to collect them tomorrow, and try to set off back to the base tomorrow afternoon."

Xia Lunong nodded.

They drove back to the soccer field that night.

The giant bulls have already been driven away, and they have suffered heavy casualties. It is estimated that they will not dare to mess with them in a short time. They are still safe on the football field.

Xia Lunong had been busy all day and midnight, not to mention using supernatural powers many times, and also received a huge amount of information shock, making her feel a little groggy.

Back at the base, he ate two catties of boiled beef, dragged his sleeping bag and lay down on the truck when he was full, and fell asleep before it was dark.

Xia Lunong didn't need to be on guard this night, he had a full sleep until dawn.

When I woke up again, my nose was dry, my throat was hoarse, and I felt uncomfortable.

He got up exhausted and looked out. Today is a cloudy day, no wonder he always feels that it is not dawn.

"Are you awake?" Kong Zhi's voice sounded from the side, "What's wrong?"

"No." Xia Lunong said, but her voice was unbelievably hoarse, and she licked her lips again, her lips were very dehydrated, like a shriveled balloon.

His eyes went dark, and Kong Zhi stretched out his hand to his head from the side.

A warm palm was placed on his forehead for a moment, and he said, "I have a cold."

Xia Lunong blinked, feeling weak, "I said I don't feel well anywhere today, no wonder."

Kong Zhi helped him up, "Go down and brush your teeth, wash your face, and eat something. Doctor Ou will come back later, let her treat you."

"Doctor Ou, where are they?"

"I went to collect supplies." Kong Zhi said, "Captain Yan and Brother Huo Qu also went with us, and now we are the only two staying in the temporary camp to look after the house."

Xia Lunong said distressedly: "My brother and former brother worked so hard."

"Well." Kong Zhi said, "Every bit of respect they receive is not in vain."

Xia Lunong had a sore nose and sighed softly.

Kong Zhi said: "Don't think about it, Team Yan also said this morning that there will be big moves after returning to the base this time."

Xia Lunong: "Huh?"

He just fell asleep, why is he about to make a big move?
