After summer, the weather gradually warmed up. The tents purchased by the government were very thick and I didn’t know what they were made of. They had a strong plastic smell that lingered even if the window next to them was opened. It seemed that all kinds of Domestic garbage was not cleaned up in time and fermented into a disgusting smell.
Qin Wan was lying on the bed, looking a little confused.
She didn't expect that she could open her eyes.
After the apocalypse, she awakened her earth power and struggled to survive. Her companions fell one by one. Some were killed by zombies, some starved to death due to lack of food, and more died suddenly after being infected. After experiencing some , she left the base and lived alone for ten years. She ate everything she could. Before she died, she relied on the earth element to sense the earth and found a plant with difficulty. She lost consciousness just after swallowing it.
During the last period of time, she lived in pain, with no food and no second living person. Hunger and loneliness almost drove her crazy.
When she finally collapsed, she felt a sense of relief.
As a result, she was reborn five hundred years later.
It turns out that human beings were not extinct, but just hid in underground shelters. Scientists struggled with the zombie virus in a difficult environment. It was not until the seventh version of the vaccine came out and killed the last zombie that humans could finally leave the underground and come to Rebuilding homes from the ground up.
The world five hundred years later will be so different.
Qin Wan breathed in fresh air that would never have existed five hundred years ago. She accidentally coughed violently, but she was in a good mood. The worst she could cough now was blood in her throat and lungs. Damn it, but it could be said that five hundred years ago, if a large number of viruses entered the body and could not be resolved with supernatural powers, what was waiting for her would be to fall down and become a senseless zombie.
The end of the world is so cruel.
"Wanwan, you finally woke up!" A voice of surprise sounded, but it was a woman who opened the curtain and walked in.
Qin Wan turned his head and looked. It was Qin Huijun, the mother of the original owner. She was in her thirties and had dark skin. If you look carefully, her facial features were very delicate. She walked up to Qin Wan with a bowl of medicine and wanted to feed her.
"Mom!" Qin Wan stared at her. It had been too long since she had seen a living person. In her excitement, the emotions belonging to the original owner surged out. She subconsciously shouted, "Mom, I miss you so much. ..." His heart was empty.
Qin Huijun's eyes were red, "Be good, drink the medicine first."
Qin Wan smelled a very pungent smell, but she did not resist at all. The body was skinny and had multiple injuries, and it was seriously damaged. The original owner probably died like this, even though she survived. , she also felt that her head was dizzy and her whole body ached. The weak earth power was struggling to maintain her life.
She could also feel that the medicine was a good thing.
Drink it all in one sip, it's so bitter that you feel numb and calm down.
Qin Wan closed his eyes, and a warmth spread to his limbs, relieving the pain that was almost everywhere.
Slowly, the memories belonging to the original owner became clearer and clearer. They were no longer separated by a layer like a movie, but actually seemed to truly belong to her past.
The original owner was Jiang Wan, who had just turned sixteen and was born in an underground shelter. Before the age of ten, she was as happy as a little princess.
Her grandfather had a high affinity for wood. Although he had no awakened powers, he was recruited into the research institute and trained by the government to become a wood spiritualist. In addition to cultivating vegetables and fruits, he also tried to build a structure that could grow on polluted land. Plants, in fact, not only him, but all wood spiritualists are doing this.
Years of cave living haven't completely changed their genes, and humans are frantically trying to get back to the surface.
Her father was a student of her grandfather. He was not very talented, but he was very good at running camps. His carefully disguised image won the favor of her mother. The two got married. The husband gave birth to the original owner and gave birth to the original owner's younger brother. He has always been a good husband and father. There was no overturn until my grandfather made a major breakthrough in his research... That memory was very painful and confusing.
Grandpa passed away and the shelter was about to collapse, so they made an emergency move.
On the way, a wealthy young lady fell in love with her father at first sight, and the two divorced. Her father took the original owner away forcefully and went to another large shelter. The original owner was separated from his mother and younger brother. From then on, he lived under his stepmother and endured hunger all year round. Being hungry and being physically punished made her very thin. Her height of nearly 1.7 meters and her weight dropped to 70 pounds.
But her father was very satisfied with her morbidly thin appearance.
Five years later, the last group of people also moved from the underground to the surface. Her father planned to give her to a perverted old man for profit, but the stepsister let it slip. The original owner took advantage of the transfer and they did not take care of their savings and best friends. The gift escaped and traveled all the way to Yunshan City, where her grandfather once set up an experimental field. She thought her mother might be here.
She did find her mother, but she only had time to see her for the last time.
Some scattered memories flashed through my mind.
"...The patient's loss is too heavy. Even if he is cured, he will still need a lot of natural food for conditioning in the future..."
"...This is probably the third time a critical illness notification has been issued, and she hasn't given up yet!"
"I heard that her daughter was sentenced to her ex-husband five years ago and managed to escape with great difficulty. As the old saying goes, where there is a stepmother, there is a stepfather. This is too cruel..."
"...Sure enough, people can't get sick. Once you get sick, the money is like water, and your family's wealth will be drained..."
"The patient doesn't have much time left. Let's carry him back."
Then came the loud cry of collapse.
"No, I can't give up like this, uncle, please..."
"...I sold the food stall and my skills in making pancakes. I just collected this much. Uncle, do you think you have enough..."
Qin Wan was surprised that this was not the memory of the original owner, but hers.
Thinking of the information revealed in her memory, she felt heavy: It turned out that if Qin Huijun hadn't insisted on saving her, she might have died due to her poor health as soon as she arrived.
Suddenly, Qin Wan noticed a strange aura, opened his eyes, frowned and said, "Mom, did you go to the ruins?"
The ruins are former cities, and the virus concentration is very high due to the presence of a large number of zombies.
Although everyone has been vaccinated, it will still cause harm to the body. Staying there for a long time is just like excessive formaldehyde before the end of the world, which can cause cancer.
Qin Huijun didn't expect Qin Wan to find out, so she remained silent and didn't speak.
But Qin Wan already understood that it was because of her medicine, "Mom, I'm fine now. I don't need to take medicine anymore."
"But your body..."
"Just take it easy and nurse yourself back to health," Qin Wan said.
Qin Huijun sighed, "But I only have two dollars left at home."
Two yuan refers to new currency. Qin Wan calculated based on the original owner's memory that if they didn't take medicine, their family's expenses would be about two or three cents, and two yuan wouldn't last long.
Qin Wan choked, she was almost never short of money.
Before the apocalypse, her family had money, but after the apocalypse, the money turned into waste paper. "Even so, you can't go into the ruins. Mom, I don't want anything to happen to you. Think of me and your brother."
Qin Huijun was about to say that it didn't matter if she just made do for a while, when a little boy came in holding a stainless steel bucket and said,
"Mom, the meal is ready."
He looked eight or nine years old, and his skin was very tanned, but even so, you could see that his facial features were very delicate, and when he grinned, he was as bright as a little sun.
He is Qin Feng, the younger brother of the original owner.
The original owner only remembers what he looked like when he was three years old. The two siblings should be relatively strangers, but every time the original owner was tortured by her stepmother, she would think about her mother and brother gritting their teeth and surviving. At this time, she felt very kind to the little boy when she looked at him.
"Sister, are you awake?" Qin Feng said in surprise, "Don't you need to take medicine?"
Seeing the child's cheerful expression, Qin Wan knew that the medicine he took had caused serious damage to the family, and smiled awkwardly, "Well, I won't use it anymore."
Qin Huijun said softly, "Fengfeng, be good, your sister needs to eat more and sleep more to take care of herself. Then you can take care of your sister at home, and your mother can find a job to make money, okay?"
"Okay." Qin Feng glanced at Qin Wan and agreed.
The bucket contained sweet potato porridge. It was said to be sweet potato porridge, but in fact there were very few sweet potatoes and porridge. Qin Huijun took the bowl from which Qin Wan drank the medicine and poured some cold boiled water from the pot next to it. Qin Wan knew that the medicine was very precious and took it. I came here to drink it, and even though it was diluted many times, the taste was still unpleasant.
Qin Huijun allowed her to drink three times before taking the bowl, filling a full bowl of sweet potato porridge and passing it to Qin Wan. Almost all the large pieces of sweet potato and white rice were put into her bowl.
Qin Feng stared at her bowl, swallowed, and quickly lowered his head.
Qin Huijun seemed to know what Qin Wan was thinking, "Eat quickly and take good care of yourself as soon as possible."
Qin Wan responded.
The sweet potato porridge was not delicious. She did not taste the sweetness of the sweet potatoes at all. Instead, it had a bitter taste. However, it was much better than the rotten food she had eaten at the end of the world, but this body was too Sorry, she felt nauseated after just a few mouthfuls. She swallowed hard and closed her mouth tightly to prevent herself from spitting it out.
These sweet potatoes and rice should be artificial foods.
Artificial food is made by wood spirit masters, and the kind grown in hydroponics can be considered natural food.
"Can I give you another bowl?"
Qin Wan shook his head, "Mom, I can't eat anymore, give it to my brother."
Qin Huijun stopped trying to persuade her. Qin Feng cheered when he saw her nodding, then picked up the crooked spoon made of unknown material and said, "Mom, you eat."
"I won't eat it. I'll eat it later."
Qin Feng kept shaking his head, "No, you eat with me. If it's not enough, we'll drink the stone nutrient solution together."
Stone nutrient solution is actually called mineral nutrient solution. The underground shelter space is limited, and vegetables and fruits are almost entirely grown in hydroponics. In order to feed more people, scientists have developed the technology to extract substances from ores to make nutrient solution, but even if The ores buried deep underground have also been contaminated by zombie viruses, and cannot provide the vitality that green plants can bring to people.
Mineral nutrient solution can ensure that people do not starve to death. However, everyone knows that long-term consumption will damage organs and accelerate aging. You may be in your thirties and you will look like you were seventy or eighty before the end of the world.
The original owner's stepmother often gave this to the original owner.
This body is simply full of holes.
Qin Wan knew that she had to find a way to make money. After all, the earth element was not the life or healing element. If she wanted to regulate her body, she needed oil, water, vegetables and meat. Especially according to the memory of the original owner, natural food was better than medicine and supplements.
