“Weng Lan’s Story-Beginning”

A.D. 2039, 24th year of the last century A.D. June 25th, 9:00 a.m. United States time.

Houston City, a hundred kilometers south of Galveston Coast, there is a small town called Bravecity, meaning the City of the Brave.

The so-called city was not worthy of its name. Bravecity was very small, not even a small town. It was only about two hundred meters long and wide, with five families and forty-eight people.

In the apocalypse, these people chose to stay far away from the city and hide in a secluded place by the sea. They had lived together in silence for nine years.

Because there weren’t many people, there were only twelve double-decked wooden houses in the small town. The people living inside all belonged to five families.

In a courtyard south of the town, in front of a double-decked wooden house, an oriental woman in her forties was washing her clothes with a large wooden basin.

She wore casual clothes, bare feet, black legs, trousers, and a purple bra on her upper body.

Although she was already old, her figure was still very curvaceous, without any extra flesh. Her skin was also very delicate and white, and she looked like she was only thirty years old.

After washing all the clothes, the woman walked back and forth on the soft beach and hung them one by one on the clothesline in the courtyard.

At this time, outside the half-meter-tall fence courtyard, a twenty-year-old oriental man and a girl of twelve or thirteen years old pushed open the courtyard door and walked in.

“Mama, look, alotoffish! This is awesome!”

The little girl ran to the woman’s side and turned around to show the fish in the basket to her mother.

The woman pulled the little girl into her arms and kissed her cheek. After that, she helped her take off the basket behind her back. She saw that there were indeed many fish inside.

“Annie is really capable! She is really a good daughter of a mother!”

“No, in fact, this was all captured by my father. I just helped him a little!”

The woman touched her daughter’s head affectionately. Then, she looked at the handsome man behind her and sighed,

“Look at your daughter, a sentence is neither Chinese nor foreign!

“A lot of fish don’t say a lot of fish, but she says’alotoffice ‘. It’s a mixture of Chinese and English. How can outsiders understand it?”

The man smiled and walked forward to hug the woman. Then, he kissed her deeply on the lips.

Being intimate with her husband in front of her daughter, the woman was a little uncomfortable and pushed the man away awkwardly. Afterwards, her expression became a little resentful.

“Jesse, why do you think this is? You haven’t aged in the slightest for more than twenty years, but I’ve become an old woman!”

Jesse knew his wife’s worries, so he smiled and comforted her,

‘”Who said you were an old woman? Look at your face. There are no wrinkles at all. At most, you can only be considered a familiar person now. Female, you know, I like to be familiar. Female, I prefer the kind of insanity you imply in bed!”

.

Jess’ wife, Liu Tian, blushed. She glanced at her daughter who was counting fish and gently pushed Jess. Then she said, “Daughter is still over there. What nonsense are you talking about?”

Jess laughed out loud and said, “Darling, this is America in the apocalypse!” A.D. 2039! Our daughter is already thirteen years old this year. She can even find a little boyfriend, so there is no need to hide from her and let her know more. She can only deal with it calmly when she experiences it personally! Your mother is too conservative, so I can only educate her as a father. ”

Little Annie curled her lips in disdain and didn’t go to see her parents. She continued to count the fish as if she didn’t hear what they were saying.

Jess came back from fishing. Liu Tian also finished her housework. The couple asked their daughter Annie to get a basin of fish to feed. They went to the kitchen together and began to prepare dinner.

“Don’t bring Annie with you when you go out to sea in the future. What if you encounter a mutated sea beast?” As Liu Tian cut the tomatoes, she opened her mouth to chat with Jesse.

Jess is cleaning up the fish at this time.

“Don’t worry, after living here for so long, I have never found any mutated creatures that are too dangerous in the nearby sea.”

“I’ve really lived here for a long time … We should be in the United States by 2020, right? In the blink of an eye, 19 years have passed!”

“Ah … yes, you and I had a hard time getting to America and settling down in search of Benita back then … Dear, thank you.”

Jesse stopped his work and stood up. He wanted to hug his wife, but his hands had a lot of fishy smell because of killing fish. So he just lowered his head and kissed Liu Tian on the cheek.

Liu Tian habitually raised her head and responded to Jesse. She was very generous without her daughter and did not mind kissing her beloved man in the kitchen.

After that, the two of them separated and continued to do their own things.

“I was reluctant to follow you to the United States to find your ex-wife, but I couldn’t bear to see you gloomy every day in Anguang City. After so many years, I didn’t find Benita, but my heart felt empty! In the end, it was all caused by the apocalypse. If it wasn’t for the arrival of the apocalypse, our relatives wouldn’t have been separated, and it’s impossible for us to see each other. With the fate of this husband and wife… ”

“Darling, you must believe that I love you! Very much. I also believe that Benita should still be alive. However, I don’t know where she is now. We went to many places earlier and heard the story of a Chinese man looking for Weng Lan. I believe that man is Qin An. I originally wanted to go with him back then, but he didn’t bring me along. Sigh, thinking about it, it seems like it was yesterday. ”

‘”You’ve always talked about Qin An these years. If I weren’t your wife, I would have thought that you might have liked men and liked Qin An. Back then, we didn’t seem to have been together for long, did we? Why can’t you forget him?”

“Because I have always regarded him as my friend, I like his Chinese poetry! I think it is a very beautiful form of artistic expression.”

When Liu Tian heard that Jesse suddenly mentioned Chinese poetry, her face turned red and she didn’t say anything else.

Jesse cleaned the fish in his hand. Then, he looked up and was stunned. He suddenly said,

“I am a fish in that sea,

Love to drink seawater is very naughty!

The woman surnamed Liu is my wife,

Sweet Life Watermelon Peel…

Oh my God, this is so hard! Not only should we pursue the artistic conception of horizontal poems, but we also need to make the first word of each sentence a sentence, rhyme the last word, and read the entire poem with coherent and complete meanings! Heavens, it’s too hard to hide a poem! Damn Qin An, he clearly promised to teach me! ”

Liu Tian couldn’t bear it any longer, her face turned red and she laughed loudly.

Every time her husband mentioned Qin An, she would always write a poem about hiding her head, but his poem was simply like a joke. Liu Tian could laugh at him every time she heard it.

“Darling, I beg you! Although you have an oriental face and your Chinese is as pure as fire, you are still an American. You grew up in the United States! So, don’t ruin our Chinese poetry, okay? Haha… And watermelon peel? That’s funny!”

Jesse didn’t mind his wife’s mockery. He knew his level.

“Didn’t I come here to rhyme? That’s why I came here!”

“But this poem of yours doesn’t have an overwhelming rhyme! It really doesn’t convey the meaning of the words. There’s something wrong with the lips of a donkey!”

“Oh my God! I’m really sad. My wife is actually mocking me like this. What kind of life am I!”

Jesse had a depressed expression on his face, while Liu Tian had already squatted on the ground with a smile and covered her stomach. The atmosphere in the kitchen was harmonious and happy.

At this moment, in the living room outside the kitchen, a black man in his thirties rushed in. With a panicked expression, he shouted in English, “Mayor, where are you? Something happened!”

Jess and Liu Tian were slightly stunned at the same time. They looked at each other, then put down the work at hand and quickly walked out of the kitchen to the living room.

“Falk, what’s wrong? Don’t worry and speak slowly!” Jesse said.

The black man named Falk gasped for breath and took a sip of the water that Liu Tian handed him.

“Mayor Jess, today I took a few brothers to the south two kilometers of the field weeding for crops, the result is just now, we met a woman! Her entire body was covered in blood, she lost one of her arms, and finally fainted in the field! We’ve already brought her back to our small town. My father scolded me fiercely, saying that it might bring us trouble. What do you think we should do? Oh right! “The broken flesh in that woman’s broken arm wriggles non-stop. My father said that she might be an Adept, but she is too badly injured to repair her broken arm quickly!”

Jesse’s expression became gloomy. Did he save a seriously injured woman? Could it be an Adept?

Twenty years after the apocalypse, outsiders were still dangerous for people who lived anywhere for a long time!

Jess didn’t dare to delay. She turned around and said to Liu Tian, “Darling, I need you to go out and call Annie to your side. I want to see the situation at Falk’s house!”

Liu Tian quickly said in Chinese, “I will protect Annie. Wait for me to pack my things, and then I will go over as well.” Remember to send people to guard the vicinity. If she really is a mutant, that’s what you call an ability, then the person I want to injure her should also be a mutant! The gangs in Houston are not easy to provoke. You must find out her identity. Maybe she is a member of the gangs. If that is the case, it will be troublesome! “That group of people can do anything. They won’t be grateful for someone else saving their lives!”

Jesse nodded. Of course he knew the evil of the gangs.

He should have lived in Houston all these years, if not for the gangsters, because he hoped that one day his ex-wife, Benita, would return to their pre-apocalyptic home.

Regardless of the woman’s identity, Jess knew that it would be troublesome.

Their town was built on the beach, which was not suitable for planting, so the farmland of the town was two kilometers away.

When a woman reached the farmland, she could not be left to fend for herself. Therefore, Falk had no choice but to bring her back, because if someone chased after the woman to the farmland, they would also find their town.

Now, he could only take one step at a time!

As Jess pondered, he took Falk away from his home and arrived at Falk’s house after walking for more than a hundred meters.

When he entered the living room, he found a woman lying flat on the ground covered in blood. She had obviously fainted. Falk’s father was staring at the woman’s head with a gun. Several other young men were standing on four feet in the living room with weapons in their hands.

Bei Lang felt a little relieved when he saw that Jess was here.

“Jesse, hurry up and take a look. She is indeed an Adept. Her severed arm is slowly being reborn!”

Jess stepped forward and squatted down to look at the woman.

Afterwards, his entire body suddenly trembled and he was stunned…
