Qin Zheng and the others did not watch, and the supernatural power continued to hit the broken tree.
After a while, what was originally only a broken tree two or three meters high was left, but now only a tree stump flush with the ground was left. The flower bed surrounding the banyan tree had already been blown to pieces and was in tatters.
Lu Xinyi continued to fire several rockets towards the ground, blasting a circle around the tree stump, leaving only the middle stump and the tangled tree roots below.
"What is that?" Li Wanzhi pointed to the muddy ground in front of him and exclaimed, "Is that a human body?"
Several people looked together and saw a person tied to every tree root under the ground.
The corpses of these people have long since rotted, leaving only white skeletons, but judging from the clothes on their bodies, they should be villagers in this village.
No wonder there was not only no one in this village, but not even a zombie.
It turned out that they were all dragged underground by the banyan tree and used as fertilizer.
"This tree is really harmful to people." Li Wanzhi couldn't help but gasped, her expression a little solemn.
"Go on." Lu Xinyi said calmly, "Destroying these tree roots can be regarded as revenge for these people."
"Xin Yi is right!"
With the joint efforts of several people, the roots of the banyan tree were finally eradicated.
Lu Xinyi glanced at the broken tree roots in the pit and said, "If they are broken like this, these tree roots should not come back to life. Let's find a place to hide from the rain first."
Several people entered a two-story building next to it. It was built quite grandly and the furnishings in the house were also very elegant.
This family should be a prominent figure in this village.
After entering the house, Lu Xinyi said: "Let's find a room to change clothes first. After changing clothes, drink a bowl of ginger soup to avoid catching a cold."
After everyone changed their clothes, they sat on the sofa in the living room and watched Lu Xinyi cooking ginger soup on the alcohol stove.
"It's been raining for more than an hour, why is there no sign of stopping?" Du Heng looked outside the house, and it was still raining heavily and pouring down.
"Don't say it's stopped, it's not even getting smaller." Li Wanzhi also looked outside, "Will it keep raining today?"
"If it keeps raining, don't we have to stay here forever?" Du Heng frowned, looking worried.
Lu Xinyi turned off the alcohol stove and took out a bowl to serve the ginger soup. Qin Xin stepped forward, took the spoon naturally and took on the task of serving the ginger soup.
Lu Xinyi moved to the side to make room for him and said, "It's getting late now. Let's stay here for one night. We will decide when to leave tomorrow depending on the situation."
No one has any objection to this.
The next day.
Lu Xinyi woke up early and looked out the window. It was still gloomy outside and it was still raining continuously.
She got up and went to the window. As soon as she opened the window a crack, a chill hit her face.
The temperature has dropped today, several degrees lower than yesterday.
She had to close the window and looked at the big hole in the banyan tree.
The pit is now filled with rainwater. The water is very turbid, and there is still some white foam floating on the water. It should be the powder that the villagers' bones were blown into.
In order to destroy the roots of the banyan tree yesterday, they did not have the time or effort to collect the skeletons one by one, so they could only bomb them together with the roots.
Others woke up one after another and saw that it was still raining outside, and everyone felt a little depressed.
"Let's have breakfast first."
"Let me make breakfast." Qin Xian said proactively.
Lu Xinyi shook his head slightly: "No, let's eat steamed buns this morning. There's no need to make breakfast."
As she said that, she took out a few cages of small steamed buns, a large plate of large steamed buns, a large bowl of white porridge and a plate of pickles.
After a simple wash, everyone sat around and had breakfast.
"Today's rain is much lighter than yesterday. We can continue to set off." Lu Xinyi said.
"Then we'll continue setting off later." Du Heng stuffed a small steamed bun into his mouth, chewed it a few times quickly and swallowed it, "To be honest, I'm really a little bit embarrassed if I continue to stay in this village. I don’t dare, this village is really a bit scary.”
"You, a rich and powerful man, are so timid?" Li Wanzhi glanced at him and couldn't help but tease, "It's not like we've never been in an empty village."
"It's different." Du Heng explained, "The empty villages I stayed in before at least had zombies. Zombies were transformed from humans and were the same kind as us when they were alive. But in this village, there was a tree that had lived for hundreds of years. The exquisite old banyan tree.”
"Although the banyan tree is dead now, I still feel terrified."
Compared with the fear of the unknown, the fear of zombies is at least known, and they have killed many zombies, so they can deal with them easily.
But for mutated plants, everything is unknown. Who knows what plants will mutate?
Maybe an ordinary rose will turn into a bloodthirsty and cruel piranha.
Lu Xinyi understood Du Heng's thoughts and said, "Let's all be more cautious on the road and try not to take the more desolate paths."
If they encounter any mutant plants again, they will have to spend a lot of energy to deal with them.
It was already half past eight in the morning, and the rain was still pouring down outside, but it was much milder than yesterday's heavy downpour.
Several people got out of the house, got into the off-road vehicle, and drove towards the road ahead, leaving this empty and silent village behind.
It rained all along the road they were driving, and it was not until two o'clock in the afternoon that they finally left the rainy area.
In the off-road vehicle, Lu Xinyi looked at the offline map and said, "The map shows that there is a county not far ahead. We can go and collect supplies."
In the past two days, the most they encountered were villages, and they rarely passed through county towns. Now that they encountered a county town, they had to go and sweep it.
The off-road vehicle drove into the county smoothly.
The outer area of the city was relatively sparsely populated, and there were not many zombies encountered on the road. There were only three or five kittens, which were directly knocked to the ground by off-road vehicles, rolled under the tires and crushed into pulp.
The further you go into the city, the more zombies you encounter, but these zombies are nothing to be afraid of for Lu Xinyi and the others.
The group of people moved forward unimpeded until they came to a shopping mall.
"Just park here." Lu Xinyi said.
As soon as Qin Xian stopped the car, the zombies surrounding him surrounded them.
Several people got out of the car one after another and used their special powers to hit the zombies. Soon, these zombies were eliminated.
After making sure there were no other zombies around, a few people entered the mall and closed the mall door.
The population of the small county town is not large. It was around eight o'clock in the morning when the apocalypse broke out, so naturally there would not be many people in the shopping mall.
Therefore, there were only a few dozen zombies in this shopping mall, and they were easily killed by a few people.
"Brother Heng, you take Wanzhi and Lianqiao to the left, Qin Xian and I go to the right, and we'll search separately."
"good."
