Jiang Yanhuan looked around and didn't see any particularly huge trees. This was normal. The deeper the roots of a tree, the better for its survival. When plants and animals mutate, their first reaction is to grow their own rhizomes.
Only when the roots are deep enough will the trunk crown on the ground develop. This tree has obviously just mutated, so it chooses to take root hard, but I don't know why it moved its roots and caused a subsidence in the ground.
However, although he knew that a tree had mutated, Jiang Yanhuan did not intend to meddle in other people's business. The tree was gentle, and even if it mutated, unless it was a carnivorous plant like Nepenthes or Rafflesia, it would rarely harm anyone.
At most, they mutate the poisonous stings of some poisonous flowers to protect themselves. Basically, those who die on plants are those who do not understand and accidentally lose their lives. There are few plants that actively harm people.
Even the existence of plants can suppress those mutated insects. I wonder if things must be reversed at the extreme. When plants do not mutate, they have no power to fight back against the insects.
After the plants mutate, they will basically become mortal enemies with insects. The insects eat the plants, and the mutated plants that can move will also hunt the insects. Both sides will fight to the death.
If it were another mutant creature, Jiang Yanhuan would still take care of it. After all, mutant creatures themselves are good things. Whether they are bugs or animals, the meat is full of energy. It is not only delicious but also strengthens the body.
But forget about mutant plants. A newly mutated tree has no other use except for its deep roots. And although the mutant plant can move, it does not mean it has intelligence, and it cannot communicate to stop it from moving. The best way is to ignore it. .
What Jiang Yanhuan was most anxious about now was that this section of the road was collapsed by a mutated tree, and she had to take a detour. Jiang Yanhuan couldn't help but open the navigation software and start looking at the map to see which road was closer.
After checking carefully, Jiang Yan discovered to his joy that there were only two detours, and the shortest one would take a whole day to go around.
Although it is a long detour, it is necessary to take a detour. If he does not get to Li Qing as soon as possible, Jiang Yanhuan will not be able to rest at ease.
Jiang Yanhuan got into the car quickly and quickly, turned around and prepared to take a detour to go back, but this time Jiang Yanhuan didn't drive straight and fast.
It would be unbearable to sleep in the car all the time. Jiang Yanhuan had the internal strength to hold on, but Zhuang Hui was just an ordinary person, so Jiang Yanhuan got off the highway at night and found a nearby small hotel to stay.
As a result, Jiang Yanhuan was unlucky enough to sleep until midnight when he heard a chaotic sound outside. Jiang Yanhuan didn't pay attention at first.
This small hotel is located near a highway, and there are people from all over the world. There are also locals who have rooms here to play mahjong all night long. The sound is a little too normal.
In addition, Jiang Yanhuan stayed up late to drive. Although she could bear it, being able to bear it didn't mean she wasn't sleepy, so she turned over, covered her ears and continued to sleep. It was none of her business to make trouble, as long as it didn't come to her. .
As a result, just as Jiang Yanhuan fell asleep, there was a loud knock on the door, and the police were shouted from outside to open the door.
Jiang Yanhuan wiped his face and signaled Zhuang Hui, who was also woken up, to get up and go to the door. Jiang Yanhuan didn't care if it was a police officer or not. Even if she was drugged, she wouldn't be afraid. This is the courage of a skilled artist. big.
However, the person who knocked on the door was indeed a policeman. The person leading the door was a very handsome young male policeman. His complexion was a healthy wheat color. He was a vigorous and handsome man. He was wearing a police uniform, which made him look even more upright.
When the handsome policeman saw Jiang Yanhuan show her ID first, Jiang Yanhuan didn't take a closer look. She just looked at the policeman in front of her in confusion, wondering why she was staying in a hotel, so there was still a policeman knocking on the door.
However, the handsome policeman soon clarified Jiang Yanhuan's confusion: "Hello madam, there was a murder at 302 downstairs. Please cooperate with me to make a record."
Jiang Yanhuan didn't expect that he was so unlucky that a murder could occur in the hotel where he slept. He raised his hand and rubbed his temples, then asked the handsome policeman with a serious face to come in and take notes with Zhuang Hui.
I thought it would be unlucky to encounter a murder case, but when the handsome policeman asked Jiang Yanhuan and Zhuang Hui about their identities and learned that they were students, his expression became more serious.
"Now is the time for students' military training. Since you two are students now, why aren't you in school?"
Jiang Yanhuan thought about it and chose to tell the truth. If there was a murder case, the police would definitely not let go of any clues. If she said that she was going to attend the funeral for her grandfather, she would immediately find out that something was wrong.
Rather than raising suspicions, it is better to tell the truth. When the handsome policeman learned that Jiang Yanhuan and Zhuang Hui secretly skipped school and ran away to play, the disapproval in their eyes almost overflowed.
He immediately called Jiang Yanhuan and Zhuang Hui's counselor to verify the situation and confirmed that the two were indeed students, did not know the deceased, and had no motive for murder, and then filed a complaint.
Then Jiang Yanhuan and Zhuang Hui were trained by the counselor for two hours on their mobile phones, and they were ordered to return to school immediately, otherwise they would be dealt with severely.
After hanging up the phone with the counselor, the handsome policeman scolded Jiang Yanhuan and Zhuang Hui again, asking them to return to school quickly, and then let the two people who had been struggling from midnight to daylight leave.
After leaving the hotel, Jiang Yanhuan and Zhuang Hui looked at each other, got in the car and continued to drive home. Jiang Yanhuan was now broken, and she would go back even if the sky fell.
Zhuang Hui was purely loyal and wanted to accompany Jiang Yanhuan, a good sister, even at the risk of being punished. She felt that something was wrong with Jiang Yanhuan these past two days and was afraid that something would happen to her. She was worried about letting Jiang Yanhuan go alone and risking her life to accompany her best friend. .
This time, the two of them went relatively smoothly along the way and did not encounter any more trouble. After another successful day, they felt the city where Li Qing was located.
Along the way, Jiang Yanhuan has been paying attention to the news everywhere, and has not forgotten to watch several video software that everyone loves to play, and there are more and more curious videos in it.
At first, everyone thought it was a special effect, and some people asked what software the special effect was used on. But as the photographer kept saying it was true, and some witnesses began to testify in the comment area, everyone became more and more inclined to believe it was true. Yes.
Then suddenly one day, all these videos of animal and plant mutations disappeared and were no longer played. After that, many people began to complain about the sudden surge in prices.
Jiang Yanhuan knew that the country had discovered something was wrong and began to control public opinion to avoid panic, and stored private supplies on a large scale to deal with upcoming problems in the future.
Jiang Yanhuan only bought salt and various seasonings that would not be produced after the apocalypse, such as soy sauce, vinegar, cooking wine, various sauces and other things to add deliciousness to the food.
As for food, fruits, vegetables and meat, there is no shortage in the apocalypse. As long as you are strong enough, you can get it at your fingertips. They taste better and have more energy, which is better than what was hoarded before the apocalypse.
In fear, Jiang Yanhuan finally rushed home before Hong Yu, and to the home of Li Qing's mother.
Jiang Yanhuan's biological parents had no feelings for her. After realizing that Li Qing liked Jiang Yanhuan, they stopped paying for living expenses and tuition fees, so they naturally gave their daughter to Li Qing to raise.
Jiang Yanhuan simply thought that she was Li Qing's daughter and had nothing to do with the irresponsible couple. For a long time, Jiang Yanhuan passed by her nominal parents as if they were strangers without saying hello.
Later, Li Qing saw Jiang Yanhuan and looked at the two people with irritation. Later, Li Qing's three old houses were demolished and he got more than 80 million in demolition money, so he simply sold this small house and took Jiang Yanhuan to live in a city. , completely avoid those two people.
The house Li Qing bought in the new city was a large flat floor, with an area of 400 square meters, seven bedrooms and two living rooms, plus two beautiful garden balconies. The two of them lived in extreme luxury.
When Jiang Yanhuan came back, she found that the beautiful garden balcony of her home had been covered with dense steel mesh while she was still downstairs. It looked very strong at first glance.
Jiang Yanhuan parked the car in his parking space, pulled Zhuang Hui out of the car, swiped his card and got into the elevator. When he got out of the elevator, he found that the door that was originally the entrance to the elevator had been placed in front of the elevator by Li Qing. security door.
There is not even a peephole on the security door to prevent a locksmith from opening the lock through the peephole. There is also a very hidden small camera on the top of the security door. If Jiang Yanhuan hadn't been sensitive, he wouldn't have noticed it.
This small camera can observe the situation outside the house without fear of being discovered. The lens is non-reflective and will not reveal the position of the camera.
Jiang Yanhuan knocked on the door, and there was a continuous sound of unlocking the door. It seemed that her mother had listened to her and had indeed installed many locks inside.
The door was finally opened. Before Jiang Yanhuan could say hello to her mother, her attention was attracted by another layer of security doors. Not only did her mother follow her advice and get a security door, but she also got a two-layer security door with double insurance.
Li Qing was very happy to see Jiang Yanhuan: "Yan Huan, you are back."
Zhuang Hui was unwilling to be left alone: "Auntie, there's me, there's me, I'm here too."
Zhuang Hui and Jiang Yanhuan were good friends in high school, and Li Qing also knew her. He immediately said enthusiastically: "Xiao Hui is here too, come in quickly. Auntie remembers that you like the braised pork with pickled vegetables and steamed pork buns made by auntie the most. Today, auntie will give you You do more.”
Zhuang Hui pushed her suitcase and walked straight in. Jiang Yanhuan also walked in and said to Li Qing, "Mom, have you changed what I said on the phone before?"
Li Qing helped Zhuang Hui push the luggage and turned around and said, "Of course, I have done everything you said. I just spent money to hire enough people and started working day and night. The property management company came to warn me several times. Finally, I finished it as quickly as possible."
Jiang Yanhuan put down his salute and went to check the situation outside first. The two gardens were sealed with bulletproof glass, and there were steel mesh protection outside, so ordinary monsters could not get in.
After walking around the house, he found that all the rooms had been filled by Li Qing with all kinds of food, clothing, bedding and other supplies. Jiang Yanhuan also filled a room with the seasonings he ordered online, which would last a lifetime. .
Jiang Yanhuan turned around and asked Li Qing: "Mom, has the RV I bought before been delivered?"
Li Qing nodded directly and said: "It's here. I put it in our underground garage. I also reinforced the underground garage and added two large iron doors."
Jiang Yanhuan nodded and went into the kitchen to help Li Qing cook. Zhuang Hui also came over to help. Fortunately, the kitchen was big enough and the three of them were not crowded. The three of them simply chatted and cooked in the kitchen.
After returning home and seeing her safe mother beside her, Jiang Yanhuan's anxious and tense mood relaxed.
After dinner, Jiang Yanhuan decided to tell Zhuang Hui everything. Of course, she would not tell Zhuang Hui about the "Book of Destiny" space. She just told Zhuang Hui that she suddenly had a prophetic dream, dreaming about the end of the world. .
Zhuang Hui didn't believe it at first. She was even confused for a moment. It took her a long time to react. She looked at Jiang Yanhuan in disbelief: "So, you skipped school just for a dream and transformed your home into this?!"
Zhuang Hui stood up and touched Jiang Yanhuan's head across the table: "Yan Huan, are you okay? How about we go find a doctor? Don't hide your illness and avoid it. Let me tell you, hallucination is not a serious disease. The sooner you get treatment, the sooner you get better."
Jiang Yanhuan reluctantly pulled Zhuang Hui's hand and said, "I'm not suffering from hallucinations. Do you remember that the road collapsed on the way we came here? That was because a mutated tree was moving its roots."
"Zhuang Hui, I know it's hard for you to believe it, but believe me, I didn't lie to you. In two days, the red rain will come. After the red rain passes, you will understand what is going on."
Zhuang Hui saw Jiang Yanhuan's solemn face. Although she didn't quite believe what Jiang Yanhuan said about the end of the world, she thought that a two-day delay would be nothing, so she agreed to stay.
Anyway, just skipping school for two days was not a big mistake. She and Jiang Yanhuan had always had good grades. Good students received special treatment, and the school would not expel them even if they made mistakes.
This time skipping school is probably just an escape from military training. It is not skipping classes. At most, it will deduct credits and give her a demerit. She will just study hard in the future and get the points back. Being a sister is more important.
Although Zhuang Hui still didn't believe it, it was enough for her to stay. It wouldn't take two days for Zhuang Hui to know whether what she said was true.
Zhuang Hui and Jiang Yanhuan are in the same boat. Jiang Yanhuan has parents but has no parents, but she was lucky enough to meet Li Qing and have a mother.
Zhuang Hui was even more unlucky. She had been loved by her parents since she was a child, until she was sixteen years old. Unfortunately, her parents died in a car accident. Her family members were like ghosts and ghosts, fighting for the custody of Zhuang Hui, just to legitimately occupy Zhuang Hui's parents. The legacy left behind.
In the end, it was Zhuang Hui's uncle's family who won. From then on, Zhuang Hui was driven to the storage room at home and lived a very hard life. From being a little princess doted on by her parents to falling into poverty, to Cinderella who couldn't even eat enough to eat.
Fortunately, Jiang Yanhuan was a good friend who helped her with food and drinks every day, so Zhuang Hui lived until the age of eighteen. Then Zhuang Hui directly went to a lawyer to sue her uncle's family to court and took back her family property.
In order to get rid of the entanglement of her uncle's family, Zhuang Hui sold her house and found a place to rent a house far away from her uncle's family. Jiang Yanhuan was afraid that Zhuang Hui would not be safe living outside, so she took her home.
Because Jiang Yanhuan was good to Zhuang Hui, Zhuang Hui was willing to accompany Jiang Yanhuan to play around. Time passed quickly, and soon on the third day, a large blood-red cloud suddenly appeared in the sky.
These clouds are either the color of burning clouds or red like flowing blood. They gather in the sky, giving off an ominous feeling.
