In what was once a bustling city center, now lies a wasteland.
Ji Zan glanced around the surroundings and stopped the car, saying, “Be careful, and shout if you need help.”
Fu Shinan nodded and led Man Yu to explore the nearby high-rises, hoping to find something useful. However, as soon as the two entered a dilapidated Dilliamg, a aarK ngure aartea out rrom tne aarKness.
Fu Shinan instinctively dodged, finally seeing the situation clearly.
The person before them was dressed in black attire, but covered in dirt from head to toe. His face was heavily bearded, obscuring his original appearance, and his hair was dirty and unkempt. Apart from discerning that he was male, nothing else could be made out.
Relieved that it was just a person, Fu Shinan relaxed a bit.
But the man suddenly raised his head, his eyes emitting a strange gleam, staring directly at Fu Shinan.
In that moment of eye contact, Fu Shinan inexplicably felt as if he was being seen through, as though X-rayed, with his bones laid bare. She involuntarily took a step back and asked, “Are you… alright?”
The man remained silent, merely gazing fixedly at Fu Shinan.
An inexplicable sense of oppression emanated from his dark, shining eyes, making Fu Shinan feel like she was suffocating.
Seeing this man staring intently at Fu Shinan with bizarre behavior, Man Yu couldn’t help but retort, “What are you looking at? If you keep staring, I’ll pluck out your eyeballs!”
The man seemed startled by Man Yu’s sudden outburst, taking a step back and muttering, “Lingqu Mountain, mother of the earth, humanity’s last hope.”
“What did you say?” Man Yu couldn’t quite make out his words and found his speech unclear, as if he had a speech impediment.
Fu Shinan, however, was taken aback because she understood what the man had said clearly, and her heart felt as if it had been struck by something odd.
Suddenly, the man raised both his hands and shouted, “Lingqu Mountain, mother of the earth, humanity’s hope has arrived…”
Man Yu was startled by his sudden reaction.
Ji Zan, who had heard the commotion, immediately ran over with MO
Chengzhao and asked, “What’s going on?”
Fu Shinan pointed at the deranged man without saying a word.
But the man continued to repeat loudly, “Lingqu Mountain, mother of the earth, humanity’s hope has arrived…” before turning and running off without looking back.
Man Yu finally understood what he had been shouting, feeling perplexed. “What did that crazy man mean?”
MO Cheng chimed in, “Don’t worry about it. He’s probably just a lunatic. We’re in the end times, and all sorts of people are around. Let’s leave quickly; his shouting might attract unwanted attention.”
Ji Zan, however, remained silent, looking deep in his thoughts.
“What are you thinking?” Fu Shinan suddenly asked.
Ji Zan snapped back to reality, “Nothing.”
Fu Shinan replied with an “oh,” feeling that things weren’t as simple as Ji Zan had portrayed. But she didn’t ask further and followed everyone else to search for other items in different places.
Soon, it was already noon. Ji Zan whistled, and everyone gathered once again, loading the found items into the trunk.
As MO Cheng got into the car, he suddenly remembered something and handed a package to Fu Shinan, saying, “Sister Fu, you wanted seeds, right? I don’t know if these are what you’re looking for, but I brought them all for you to check. ”
Fu Shinan opened the package and immediately revealed a hint of delight on her face. “These are cucumber seeds, fantastic! Are there any more?”
MO Cheng scratched his head, feeling embarrassed. “No, this is the only pack.”
Fu Shinan couldn’t help but feel happy. “One pack is enough. I can try planting them when we get back. Who knows, they might sprout!”
Watching her smiling with radiant eyes, MO Cheng was momentarily stunned and blurted out, “Sister Fu, you look so beautiful when you smile!”
Although MO Cheng was barely in his twenties, he’s just like a child in her eyes. Being praised by him, she didn’t feel shy at all and replied, “Can’t help it, I’m
born beautiful!”
MO Cheng grinned, “Hehe,Sister Fu is right. In my eyes, you’re an angel with healing hands. ”
Man Yu raised her hand and flicked his forehead, saying, “Alright, stop being cheesy. Let’s get ready to go back.”
MO Cheng rubbed his head, laughing foolishly.
When the group returned to the base, as soon as they entered the courtyard, they caught a whiff of burnt smell and saw billowing smoke coming from inside the house.
Sun Han quickly jumped out of the car, asking, “What happened? Is there a fire?”
Professor Feng crouched in the shade of the wall, covering his mouth with his hand, coughing incessantly. “It’s Bai Lianhua cooking, just got a little intense…”
Man Yu couldn’t help but twitch her mouth. “Professor Feng, your choice of words is too tactful.. Is this what you call ‘a little intense’?”
