Xie Xiaojuan may give birth at any time in less than a month.
Lu Wenli has been coming over every day for the past three days to check her body.
No one at the base paid much attention to Xie Xiaojuan's sudden appearance.
It is normal for a pregnant woman to be brought back by Su Mi kindly.
Su Mi was also relieved at everyone's reaction.
Instead, it was Jiu, who had been missing for three days.
Qin Hao and Wang Ling came to ask Su Mi several times, but Su Mi herself didn't know where she had gone.
She would come to see Su Mi every day, her big eyes full of worry but she hesitated to speak.
As usual, Su Mi goes to the artificial lake every day to check the growth status of plants and soil quality.
People from the engineering department have added double filters to the main channel for domestic water supply at the base.
The water for the base is drawn from the artificial lake. Adding a filter can not only effectively prevent the creatures in the artificial lake from swimming into the base, but also prevent some dangers that Su Mi is worried about from sneaking into the base from the waterway.
Big Mac and the little octopus monster are very frustrated in the artificial lake, so they often swim to the artificial lake outside the base to play.
The plant roots on both sides have penetrated deep into the bottom of the artificial lake through underground silt and penetrated the plants in the water.
Some of the thicker roots have grown to the outside of the base, arching out of the soil.
The temperature is too high and there has been no rain since spring, which results in very low humidity in the air. Only plants with strong vitality and deep underground roots can draw water from the artificial lake for their own growth.
Looking at the artificial lake outside the base, starting from the back door of the base, it is an oval shape isolated on a piece of land that is almost dry at the moment.
That area was supposed to be a wetland park with dense vegetation. The three trails near the artificial lake were probably the favorite spots for people fishing before the end of the world.
If the base could be expanded beyond that wasteland, the entire artificial lake water area could be enclosed within the base, and the planting area of vegetation could be expanded...
Suddenly Su Mi felt a stinging pain on her neck, followed by an unbearable suffocation feeling.
A touch on the neck.
"hiss!"
bleeding?
Su Mi frowned. She was injured and bleeding for no reason. The only explanation was Jiu.
Could something have happened to this guy?
The feeling of suffocation disappeared within ten seconds, but was followed immediately by the pain of being crushed throughout his body.
"ah!"
Where did he go? With his strength, what did he provoke that would cause her to suffer too.
But where can she find him now?
"It hurts too much."
Su Mi felt that her internal organs were being squeezed out of place or even exploded in just a few minutes.
If this continues, she may really be close to death.
There was no one around, so Su Mi quickly walked behind a tree and disappeared.
The water of Linghe River covered Su Mi's neck, and the pain all over her body was quickly repaired by such nourishment.
However, the feeling of being compressed and suffocated throughout the chest and abdomen still existed.
Even fifteen minutes later, she heard the sound of her ribs breaking.
If Jiu was not found, he might continue to suffer like this. She couldn't die if Linghe was there, but she couldn't leave Linghe for even half a step.
Su Mi tried to walk out of the Linghe River.
As soon as I left and walked to the long grass by the river, I suddenly felt severe pain all over my body.
It was as if all the bones in her body had been crushed.
He spat out a mouthful of blood, which was also mixed with clots of clots and broken internal organs.
Su Mi felt that her head was dizzy and all her strength had been drained away.
No more, I'm going to fall.
Su Mi used her last strength to fall her body into the Linghe River behind her.
When the cold and thorough spiritual water covered her body again, she closed her eyes with peace of mind.
Wang Hexing and Zeng Yangping were very anxious because they could not contact Su Mi.
Wang Ling had already searched the entire Linjiang City with his men but could not find anyone.
Qin Hao took Ma Dexiang and a team of ten people out of Linjiang City and searched all the way from Linjiang City to the Beast Base. Not even a single living thing was found along the way, let alone Su Mi.
The sun's appearance during the day is getting shorter and shorter. Now that the Beast Base has been destroyed, water has begun to accumulate at the original base location.
The stagnant water has reached the calves. If the water level rises again, Linjiang City may be affected next.
If we continue to move forward, we will be on the way to Yun City.
"Dad, where did my sister and ninth brother go? I miss my sister."
"I miss you too, boss."
Qin Hao was silent... He couldn't take Tiantian and the others to risk the location of Yun City.
"Oh, let me go, what is this?"
Ma Dexiang screamed strangely, squatted down and fished it out in the water. He picked up an octopus that was only slightly smaller than his head.
"Oh my god, it's that poisonous octopus!"
Ma Dexiang had an expression of "My life is at stake", but found that the little octopus monster in his hand was motionless.
He mentioned one of the octopus's tentacles, "Is this...dead?"
"Dad, Uncle Ma, look over there!" Tiantian was about to go in the direction he was pointing, but was pulled by Qin Hao.
"You and Uncle Ouyang stay here, Lao Ma, come with me to have a look."
The two of them stepped on the water towards the location pointed by Tiantian.
The white and yellow object was very conspicuous in the dark night.
The two of them walked carefully for more than ten minutes, a distance of about five to six hundred meters.
Ma Dexiang even picked up the bodies of five dead little octopus monsters from the water.
"Brother Hao! How come there are so many octopus corpses here? That's wrong!"
"There are at least a thousand corpses in this pile, all dead... Old horse, the water here seems to have come from the north.
The terrain of Yun City is high, and if all the ice melts, the accumulated water may flow to low-lying areas.
Our Linjiang City Bureau is not far away..."
Ma Dexiang also looked ugly. He recalled the situation of urban water accumulation during heavy rains in J City.
"Fortunately, this day is not like the beginning of the apocalypse. As long as it doesn't rain, I think there won't be any accumulation of water..."
"That's not all! Dr. Li Changtian is already trying his best to restore contact with signals from the North and South Poles.
With today’s temperature, coupled with the hole in the ozone layer above the two levels, even if it doesn’t rain…”
Qin Hao didn't say any more, as if as long as he didn't speak out, things wouldn't happen.
However, the melting of the polar glaciers did not start after the end of the world.
He has reason to believe that after the end of the world, the rate of melting of glaciers has become faster.
"Brother Hao, look, there's another pile of octopus corpses over there!"
The water flowed from north to south, and pieces of octopus corpses floated towards their position.
If there is one with a larger head, it will pile up in a large area like this.
Dr. Zeng Yangping said that Ma Dexiang’s biological evolution direction is toxins.
So he has antibodies against poisonous organisms.
He picked up the octopus corpse with his bare hands and inspected it.
"They're all dead."
Qin Hao looked to the north. More octopus corpses drifted closer to their position, and then piled up with the stranded octopus corpses in front.
"Come on, let's go to the front and have a look."
