"Hongya, if you save a few more spiritual crystals, you can give Little Hongya a new body with scales."
..
"Have you heard? The elders plan to send some people to support Bai Yashi. The mines there seem to be haunted by snake-eating ghosts..."
..
"When I get some rest, I want to go out. If I don't save some money and food, little Hongya will have no one to teach him."
"If he can become the third level, maybe we can move to the fortress..."
..
"Oh, by the way, Chi She's mother died a few days ago. I heard she fell into the water while fetching water. She was so weak that no one noticed her, and she had already drowned when they found her. ”
"Pity her grandson, since her son was taken away by the snake-faced eagle, he has no ability to mine anymore."
"Fortunately, the elders are reasonable. As long as the eyes are removed, but the old man's body is left, at least he can still eat a few meals..."
..
Nagging, sitting on Lin An's back, the white alien gently helped him clean the wounds behind him, and then patched them up with the scales in the box.
Just like the most common family in the human world, she was talking about what happened recently, with a touch of sadness in her eyes.
Supplies are getting less and less, the outside is getting more and more dangerous, and the environment is getting worse and worse.
They are not like those big shots who think about foreign wars or fighting against the end of the world.
In her heart, there is only this family.
Although Hongyaye was not strong, she accepted her husband without hesitation after his death.
Hongyaye is a good snake and loves her and her children very much.
She just wants her family to live well in the apocalypse, preferably until she is thirty.
Of course, maybe if their children become level three, they can live longer.
I heard that family members of the third level do not need to be skinned after death, and their scales can be left behind as a luxury. Bury it in the soil to avoid being eaten too quickly by lava bugs.
In his wild thoughts, Bai Lin seemed to think of his mother and his brother.
Before moving here, her mother's internal organs were soaked in acid. In order to exchange for food, she could only watch her mother pull out her scales while she was still alive.
It hurts, it's very painful.
Grandma was like a rubber band, twisting and twisting in pain. The bloody scales were the only valuable thing on her body.
She remembered that her mother pulled out the fresh scales and sold them to the elders. The elders who were not satisfied only gave them a crystal.
My brother starved to death, maybe he starved himself to death on purpose.
In short, she survived and is still living happily to this day.
"Hongya, are you going to attend the conference later? If you go, remember to bring some food to Red Snake..."
"She is very pitiful... I think one of her eyes was blinded by hunger... If this continues, she will fall into the water and drown..."
With his back to Bai Lin, Lin An calmly listened to the other person's rambling story.
Deliberately entering a state of absolute rationality, a faint trance still arose in his heart.
All this is like the daily life of the most ordinary survivor on earth.
To live for food, to survive, for the continuation of the race, and to struggle for an unknown future...
Hongyaye was the alien species he killed.
According to Bai Lin, he is a good person, a very good person.
Enthusiastic, kind and generous.
No matter what happens, he will always face it with a smile. He imagined that he could take Bai Lin to a safer fortress, that one day he could have the luxury of taking the children to spray water mist, and that maybe if he worked hard, he could become a second-level intermediate to mine.
Mining is much safer than picking up minerals.
Although thousands or even tens of thousands of meters deep underground, you have to be careful about the magma spewing out at any time, and the temperature is as high as three to four hundred degrees Celsius...
But compared to the monster snake eagle that can be encountered at any time on the ground, this is simply a good job.
Hongyaye is the name he inherited from his ancestors.
Redfang is his type, Leaf, the best thing before the end. "I heard" that it was green, smelled faintly, and was the fruit of a tree I had never seen before.
"Hongya, I feel like you are acting a little weird today..."
"You have never been willing to share your thoughts with me..."
As each person spoke, a trace of doubt flashed in some of Bai Lin's eyes. She always felt that her husband was a little strange today.
"Are you too tired? Do you want to take a nap first?"
Turning around, Lin An calmly looked at the "ugly" alien species in front of him.
The clearly elongated snake face makes people's hair stand on end when they look at it, and the scales all over its body look even more like a monster.
But the tenderness and cowardice in Bai Lin's eyes are as real as human beings.
"If I shared my mind, what would you see? Every one of my thoughts?"
"Does the gathering that will come later have to all share the same thoughts?"
Lin An asked softly, asking the most critical question to him.
He must figure out this most special ability among alien species.
He wasn't sure how these aliens generally relied on to transmit messages, and whether they were slightly abnormal when using system functions like humans.
He also needs to know the scope of mind sharing and whether the alien species will be sensed by other alien species when they die.
This is related to his safety.
Raising her head, Bai Lin looked at her man in astonishment. She didn't know how Hong Ya could ask such a question that even a child would know.
Without thinking much, she blinked and whispered:
"If you don't want me to know how hard it is for you outside and you're afraid of me, I don't have to know."
"You can also refuse the meeting later..."
Sharing thoughts, or speaking without the help of language, is the innate instinct of alien species.
It is this ability that allows them to transfer various knowledge and even combat skills with extremely high efficiency.
Nodding slightly, after confirming the news, Lin An's eyes moved slightly and asked the last question:
"I mean.."
"If you and the child die. Will the elders know?"
"If a lot of people die here, suddenly, will they be found on the other side of the fortress?"
With a gentle voice, Lin An looked at Bai Lin seriously, waiting patiently for the other party's answer.
Slightly startled, Bai Lin looked at him uneasily, but she was only sixteen or seventeen years old and would never doubt anything in front of her lover.
She only thought that Hongfang was worried about their safety.
"Red Fang, are you afraid of a volcano erupting?"
"If that's the case...the third-level people in the fortress don't know about it..."
"After all, they don't care whether we live or die..."
"Only when something happens to the big shots of the third level, their origin... no, they are qualified to leave the origin that represents life and death in the temple... That way, they should be discovered immediately, right?"
After Cowardly finished speaking, Bai Lin subconsciously wanted to hold Lin An's hand, as if to say, don't worry about her.
However, the next second.
She only heard a clear, somewhat abrupt tearing sound that seemed to come from her body.
In front of her, she saw the right hand of the person she loved, her carefully bandaged hand, thrust into her chest without any bias, crushing her heart.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
After three consecutive imperceptible cracking sounds, Lin An stood up silently and looked at the three corpses.
The blood from the exploded head splashed at his feet and all over his body.
He did not choose to block the blood of these alien species, but just let the blood stain his hands.
Looking at the two shapeless little alien corpses on the ground, Lin An had no emotion in his eyes.
Feel sorry.
I also have people I love.
