Chapter 288 Frozen bones in the building
"Well, it's really true!"
After taking a few mouthfuls, Ouyang Juan's eyes couldn't help but light up when she felt the warmth.
Just these few mouthfuls are enough to fill a bowl of rice. Wu Ze is right, this is indeed a good product for those who have awakened the origin to fill their stomachs.
Seeing this, the others stepped forward with suspicion, took a piece of roasted meat from Wu Ze's hand, and then carefully took a small bite.
"Eh? It's actually true!"
Everyone's eyes lit up slightly. Those who had eaten were better off, but those who had not eaten felt a powerful energy from this small mouthful.
This energy allows them to replenish their body consumption for a day, making it a rare and good quality meat.
"Now you believe it. But I still have to remind you that this meat contains another source of energy. You must not eat meat that exceeds its own grade."
"Otherwise something happens, I can't guarantee anything."
Wu Ze threw the remaining meat into his mouth, reminded everyone, and walked straight to the pile of grain.
The Xinghan Empire had five grains as food, and all of them were based on fruits, and the fruits could also be used as seeds.
Everyone followed Wu Ze silently, with a look of shame and embarrassment on the faces of Wu Xueruo and others. They wanted to apologize to Wu Ze several times, but they stopped because of outsiders and shame.
Taking the seeds of the grains, Wu Ze held them in his hand.
Then, a burst of green wood's original power was released from his hand and injected into the seed.
The next moment, the seeds began to grow rapidly. Just a few seconds later, the grains that originally took three months or even half a year to grow matured in these seconds.
The melons ripened and fell from the stems, and dozens of grain seeds fell. Wu Ze originally had only five seeds in his hand, but at this time, they turned into a large handful.
"It's really feasible. There's really no way out!" Wu Ze sighed softly.
He had thought about food issues before, so he had a lot of ideas. Among them, the simplest and most direct is to use source power to stimulate plants and make them grow rapidly, so as to achieve the purpose of having a lot of food.
He just had this idea before, but didn't have time to verify it. Well now, with this kind of verification, the problem of food to them will be greatly reduced in the future.
Grain grows, ears and fruits fall. If this continues, solving the food problem will not be a problem at all.
"You have all seen it. It's not that there is no way, but that you haven't thought of a way."
Wu Ze placed the grain in his hand in front of everyone, and everyone couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
"This method is a good one, but..."
He understood what Wu Ze meant, but there was a look of hesitation on Wu Xueruo's face.
"Just what?" Wu Ze asked.
"It's just, we, we, we..."
Wu Xueruo spoke hesitantly. He just talked for a long time and did not tell a reason.
"Um?"
Wu Ze frowned slightly, as if Wu Xueruo was like this, he really didn't know the reason.
"Hmph! What else could it be? Some people clearly think that they are superior to others and are unwilling to do such low-level work." Chen An snorted coldly from the side.
When it comes to this, he can see it more clearly than Wu Ze.
Who are the people who can enter Jiuzhou Jiufang Academy?
That is the proud son of the entire Xinghan Empire!
Their future is destined to be the existence of superiors, so how can they do what low-level people should do?
When Chen An said this, the sixth uncle, sixth aunt and others reacted, but they also felt that there was nothing wrong with what Chen An said.
Each level has its own things to do. It is indeed inappropriate for senior staff to do the same things as those at the bottom.
To be precise, this is indeed overkill. If it were them, they would be a little unhappy. However, if Wu Ze opens his mouth, they will not refuse.
Wu Ze was a little confused, but seeing Wu Xueruo and others in such a difficult situation, Wu Ze also lost his patience.
"Wu Xueruo, I've found a way for you. Whether you use it or not, that's none of my business."
"Well, that's it."
With a wave of his hand, Wu Ze took some seeds and put them into the Qiankun Order, then stepped out directly.
This time Wu Xueruo and others did not stop Wu Ze. It's just that Wu Ze's method is very embarrassing for her. If she really wants to implement it, I'm afraid not many awakened people will do such a thing.
Perhaps, for these proud students of the academy, hunger is a small matter, but lack of integrity is a big deal. Asking them to do such a thing, in their opinion, is a very shameful thing and demeans their status.
And they don't know that the reason for this is that they don't know what hunger is.
I believe that when they are so hungry that they see everything as food, they will realize that their persistence is just that.
There are no big things besides life and death. The reason why I disagree is because these proud men have never suffered from starvation to the point of death.
Of course, the reason why Wu Xueruo and others did not agree with Wu Ze's method was only for one reason. The biggest reason was that they found the correct way to eat hellfire beast meat.
You must know that those who consume the most food are the awakened ones. Well now, with the meat of these hellfire beasts, it directly solves the food problem of the origin awakeners.
It is precisely because of the choice that Wu Xueruo and others are so hesitant. If it were really the end of the rope and no other options, Wu Xueruo would not be so hesitant.
"Wu Ze, if you ask me, you shouldn't help them. They are not worthy of your help at all. Do these self-righteous guys really think they are still the proud ones now?"
On the way back, Chen An was full of complaints. This won't work, that won't work either. He doesn't look like begging for help, and he can't put down his dignity. For such a person, it's best to wait for death!
"Okay, okay, I'm not helping them, I just have some ideas that I want to verify. Why are you so angry here?"
Wu Ze stepped forward, talking as he walked.
This is also a fact for Wu Ze. This matter was originally a matter of killing two birds with one stone, but now it has become a matter of killing two birds with one stone, and he has not suffered any loss.
Therefore, Wu Ze had no dissatisfaction.
"Hmph! I'm unhappy, very unhappy!"
Chen An hummed and ignored the people walking around. Chen An's body was full of malice.
Others couldn't help but smile when they saw this.
Chen An was right, but in their opinion, Chen An's unhappiness was just making a fuss out of a molehill.
As they walked, as they stepped out of the cafeteria, a burst of panicked footsteps came from ahead.
"Go, go, go, get out of here!"
"Damn it! How could this happen? Why would this happen!"
"Go away, don't block the road, get out of here quickly, and call the source awakener...ah!"
"..."
A scream followed, and the crowd became even more panicked. At this moment, the originally narrow corridor suddenly became more congested.
Wu Ze frowned lightly. Facing the panicked crowd rushing toward him, he used the power of his spiritual mind to make the crowd rushing toward him rise into the air and fly past Wu Ze quickly.
"What happened ahead?"
Wu Ze manipulated a man to come to him and asked aloud.
"Yes, it's the Origin Awakener. It's so, so good. Hurry, front, no, it's the back. There are zombies behind!" The man said loudly with surprise, but also fear.
"Zombies? What zombies? Why are there zombies in this building?" Wu Ze asked confused.
"No, I don't know. This news came from the top of the building. I really saw zombies, but how did the zombies come? I really don't know."
The man pointed up and then behind. While speaking, a zombie appeared at the end of the corridor. As his body moved, several more students fell into a pool of blood.
"Huh? It's really a zombie."
Wu Ze's eyes narrowed, and in the next second, Chen An's figure moved with the wind, and the blade of the wind appeared. After a long sword light, the zombie was chopped directly under the sword.
"Tch! It's just a newborn zombie. Something must have happened up there."
Chen An briefly glanced at the zombies at his feet, then looked at the other dead students lying in the corridor, and stood aside silently.
If you are killed by a zombie, you will become a zombie after death. It's just that it's not the time for corpse transformation yet. Chen An is waiting for them to transform into corpses. Only in this way can he gain something after killing the zombies.
Wu Ze let go of the man in front of him and stepped forward. Uncle Liu and others followed behind him, striding forward towards a higher floor.
Soon after, Wu Xueruo and others got the news and came over, just in time to see Chen An beheading the students who had turned into zombies.
"Chen An, what's going on?" Wu Xueruo asked anxiously.
"Are you asking me? I don't know either. If you want to know, go find it yourself."
After that, a strong wind blew, and Chen An quickly disappeared.
Wu Xueruo gritted her teeth. She was not expecting such a thing to happen in the building.
"Come on, let's go up and take a look. The other Origin Awakeners should guard the others."
After giving the order, Wu Xueruo led Chen Qingqing and others to the top quickly, leaving only Mi Qiyue as the top executive.
On the eighteenth floor, Wu Ze stepped forward, and as he passed by, the zombies existing on the floor died at the hands of his uncles and aunts, Liu Heizi and Ouyang Juan without his taking any action.
Following the guidance of the traces, Wu Ze came to a door.
At this time, the door was broken into pieces, the room was covered with a layer of frost, and the windows were broken. The wind roared from it, bringing an icy air to the entire room.
Wu Ze walked into the room and glanced around. Looking at the mess on the floor and the cold bed, an answer gradually came to his mind.
The six uncles and six aunts followed Wu Ze silently. When they stepped into the room, they shuddered subconsciously and felt a deep chill.
Yes, just a simple chill. It's not a descriptive chill, it's just a kind of coldness brought about by the temperature.
It's the twelfth lunar month of winter, approaching the Spring Festival. It's already a severe winter. Coupled with the current changes in the world, the temperature has dropped to an unbelievable level.
"How is it? Wu Ze, did you find anything?"
Along with a strong wind, Chen An appeared in the room.
"Yes, I have."
As soon as Wu Ze finished speaking, Wu Xueruo and others appeared outside the door.
"Did Wu Ze find anything here? What is the cause?" Wu Xueruo asked anxiously.
Wu Ze turned to look at everyone and replied calmly: "If nothing else happens, the cause should be a corpse that was frozen to death."
"When a person dies, the power of alienation invades, causing the body to alienate. This is the disaster at this time."
Wu Ze pointed to an obvious black mark in the corner.
Having experienced the cold winter since he was a child, he naturally knew that this black mark was caused by a person hugging himself tightly and leaning against the corner because of the cold.
In this trace, Wu Ze felt a very strong alienation power of the abyss, so he made such a conclusion.
"Frozen, frozen to death..."
After hearing what Wu Ze said, everyone couldn't help but look dumbfounded.
Wu Xueruo's face was slightly pale. Thinking about the thin bodies of ordinary people, a wave of self-blame poured into her heart.
"Yes, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I didn't protect you. I'm sorry, I'm sorry for you..."
As he said that, Wu Xueruo's body slumped and collapsed on the ground, sobbing softly.
She used to be able to protect everyone, but when someone froze to death due to the cold, she realized how powerless she was in the face of such a world.
No one around him came forward to persuade him, and Chen Qingqing and others also looked miserable. Such facts make them realize that they have the ability to protect themselves, but they cannot protect everyone.
Their previous commitments to these people and their confidence in themselves were completely gone at this moment!
"Humph! Why cry? If crying is useful, you can just cry to death here!"
After a few breaths, Chen An became impatient again and shouted at Wu Xueruo.
Hearing this, Wu Xueruo stopped crying slightly, but Chen Qingqing and others showed dissatisfaction with Chen An's move.
"Wu, Wu Ze, I, am I wrong? Am I wrong?"
Wu Xueruo looked at Wu Ze with red and swollen eyes, she wanted an answer.
"Right or wrong, to be honest, I don't know."
Wu Ze shook his head. He was not omniscient and omnipotent, nor did he have any position to say anything.
But one thing is for sure, Wu Xueruo is right in wanting to protect everyone.
But the method is open to question.
"You, don't you know? Then, can this world really be saved?"
Wu Xueruo's eyes were blank. When she couldn't get the answer, she began to fall into despair because of confusion and self-blame.
"This question... if you don't try it, who can explain it clearly?"
At this time, a smile suddenly appeared on Wu Ze's face, and he thought of a way.
He turned back to look at Wu Xueruo, and Wu Ze said calmly: "Okay, don't blame yourself. The top priority is to solve the problem, not cry here. Xiao Anzi is right, crying can't solve any problem."
"Come on, follow me."
After saying that, Wu Ze turned and walked downstairs. Seeing this, others followed Wu Ze.
But they didn't know that when they saw the black mark in the corner, Wu Ze's original idea of playing the world changed for the first time.
In the past, he had nothing to do with his own affairs and just ignored it, but now he suddenly felt like he wanted to do something.
Soon after, everyone came outside the building, whether they were origin awakeners or ordinary people, Wu Ze called everyone together.
