Chapter 9 The Double Elemental Abilities

Early the next morning, Gu Xi and Wei Heng drove a large truck towards the wilderness more than fifty miles northeast of the camp.

Because of lack of money, Gu Xi reluctantly gave up her tomatoes. The two only received free farming machinery, a bag of sweet potato seeds, and a few large containers used as temporary housing, and set off with dry food in their arms.

The road was fifty miles away, but the truck arrived at the destination after bumping for more than two hours because of the overgrown weeds and the bad road conditions.

After arriving at the place, Gu Xi jumped out of the truck, looked at the exotic plants all around, and took a deep breath of satisfaction.

From now on, this hill belongs to her!

Gu Xi found that this place is really a good place, sparsely populated, with mountains, water, and the one hundred acres of land allocated to her by the state.

Obviously, she is very satisfied with the environment here.

Wei Heng glanced at her slender arms and legs, and silently started unloading.

The little girl is too weak, these rough jobs are tiring, and he has to come...

After Wei Heng took the initiative to take over the job of selecting a site and building a house, Gu Xi took the cloth bag and large hatchet from him, thought for a while, and walked towards the small hill not far away.

Among the wild exotic plants all over the mountains and plains, Gu Xi picked the target very quickly.

She used to go out on missions often and has rich experience in wild survival.

The heterophyte she chose this time is an edible wild vegetable before the end of the world.

Gu Xi raised her hand, and the little green bud came out of her fingertips tremblingly, and hooked up to the foreign plant she had chosen at an extremely fast speed...

The whole passing process was very smooth.Those weird and violent energies were quickly transformed into her own abilities by her.

But Gu Xi didn't plunder all the energy in this xenoplant at once, she purposely kept more than half of it.

Then he raised his hand to pinch off a young leaf and put it in his mouth. After carefully sensing it for a while, he began to chew slowly.

Sure enough, at the beginning, those weird energies lurking in the young leaves didn't move at all.

But as the young leaves were chewed and destroyed, the unknown weird energy that could even be called safe and well-behaved when it was plundered before came to life soon, and it began to attack Gu Xi, trying to pollute and erode her abilities ...

While Gu Xi was operating his abilities to suppress these weird and violent energies, he looked thoughtfully at the mutated plants all over the mountains and plains in front of him.

Perhaps, the great mutation of animals and plants 30 years ago was not a disordered mutation, but some kind of... orderly evolution?

Just like the plants before the end of the world will convert carbon dioxide into oxygen through photosynthesis; are these mutated plants also using some special way to deal with this unknown weird and violent energy? Repression?

Or is it... a seal?
In short, when these mutated plants were still alive, or in other words, they were still growing, this strange and violent energy was sealed in the plants' bodies, thus losing a certain activity.

And once these mutated plants lose their vitality and turn into dead objects, they also lose this function of suppression or sealing, and the weird energy lurking in these plants will come alive completely.

And these revived energies, after entering the human body, possess a certain aggressiveness.

Because of the supernatural body protection, the supernatural beings are relatively strong physically. After this kind of weird energy enters the supernatural beings' bodies, they will first attack their supernatural abilities... That's why Uncle Zhou's supernatural powers seem to be That's weird.

Ordinary people do not have supernatural body protection, and this weird energy will directly destroy certain bodily functions of the human body... Therefore, almost all the ordinary people in the camp are sallow and emaciated, with a look of malnutrition or poisoning .

Of course, this destruction may be slow and requires a certain amount of accumulation.

But when this kind of destruction accumulates to a certain level and erupts completely, human beings will completely lose their minds and become bloodthirsty monsters.

As for those mutated plants, once a certain balance is broken, when they can no longer suppress or seal that weird energy... then, evil changes will appear.

This guess seemed bold and absurd, but Gu Xi felt somewhat certain in his heart.

But to verify this conjecture, some other testimony is needed.

Gu Xi thought of mutant animals.

As far as she knew, after the second major mutation, plants were no longer aggressive, but those mutant animals were almost the same as before the mutation.

Except for the strange energy that suddenly appeared in their bodies.

After the end of the world, not all mutant animals are bloodthirsty and aggressive.

Some of them have undergone some changes in size and habits, but just like before the end of the world, they will not actively attack humans, and even become more docile; some have become smarter; of course, some have become bloodthirsty and violent...

It's a pity that this area was screened by the army just two days ago. Gu Xi felt it for a long time, but couldn't find a mutant animal, so he had to give up temporarily.

But if, if her guess is true, then the question arises—where does this weird energy come from?
Almost in the next second, Gu Xi had the answer in his heart - zombie virus.

The law of energy conservation is true no matter at any time.

30 years ago, after the zombies were completely extinct, the zombie virus did not disappear, but transformed into this strange and violent energy through some unknown means.

Immediately afterwards, with the self-evolution of nature, animals and plants began the second major mutation.

The mutated plants have the ability to suppress and seal this strange energy.

So, this kind of weird energy, suddenly appearing in the bodies of animals and plants, is actually just a self-help behavior of nature?
Gu Xi was startled by the idea that suddenly popped up in his mind.

The little green shoots came out at some point and wrapped around her fingertips. The two small leaves at the top seemed to have regained some vitality.

Gu Xi looked down at Little Lu Ya, she was thinking, if all of this is true, what about her?What role did she play in it?
Her ability, which was born at the same time as the zombie virus, is very special. Even the researchers of the Ability Research Institute back then never really figured out what her ability is!
And 30 years ago, all my friends only saw that she chopped off the zombie king's head with a single knife, but they didn't know that before that, her little green shoot had already secretly swept away the zombie king's head The energy crystal nucleus in it.

But because the energy of that crystal nucleus was too huge, Little Green Sprout could not completely digest and absorb it in a short period of time, so it had to be temporarily sealed in her space.

At that time, Gu Xi originally planned to slowly absorb the energy in that crystal nucleus after returning to the base... But she fell into a glass of wine the night she returned to the base.

This planting is 30 years.

When she woke up again, there was a problem with her ability, and the space was gone, and what happened to the crystal nucleus from the Zombie King...

There are too many unknown mysteries, and each one is more troublesome.

Gu Xi let out a long sigh, and chose to temporarily put all these troubles behind her.

Right now, the most important thing is to plant the hundred acres of land allocated to her by the state.

Food is the most important thing for the people, and eating is the most important thing.

Gu Xi caressed the little green bud on her fingertips.

Bao, whether we can live a good life in the future depends on you.

Thinking of the various food videos that he had watched before the end of the world, Gu Xi suddenly felt that life was full of hope!
Little Green Yam was also very excited, and jumped out from her fingertips in an instant... After 10 minutes, Gu Xi withdrew her ability.

Her current ability is still too weak. Although she just passed the plunder and barely broke through the third level, Little Green Sprout was obviously exhausted, and she hiccupped very anthropomorphically.

Gu Xi: "..."

When she went back, Wei Heng had already packed up several container houses, connected the drinking water filtration device, and was fiddling with the farming machine he brought.

It has to be said that Wei Heng is very good at choosing places.

The place he chose is backed by mountains and forests, and there is a small stream not far away. The container is backed by mountains and water, not to mention safety and security, it is convenient to fetch water and leaves, and there are large tracts of wasteland around it...

These wastelands should be agricultural land before the end of the world. As long as they are cleared out, crops can be planted soon.

While checking the description of the farming machine, Wei Heng said to Gu Xi: "I also cleaned up your room, go and see if there is anything to be changed..."

Although it is not too far from the camp, it is impossible for them to go back to the camp every day.

He is a big man, and he has been used to living in the wilderness these years, but Gu Xi is a girl's house after all, so he still needs a place to shelter from the wind and rain.

So before departure, Wei Heng was cruel, so he secretly borrowed money to buy a few large containers, and exchanged some decorations with others in private.

There is no way, he is too poor now and cannot afford the money to repair the house, so he can only make do with it.

The container is so big that you can see the end at a glance.

Gu Xi stood at the door and watched for a while, then fell silent again: She now seriously suspects that there is actually a little girl living in Wei Heng's heart.

This incomparable girl's heart...

Outside, Wei Heng fiddled with the manual for a while, and successfully started the farming machine.

Gu Xi thought for a while, then walked to a big rock beside him and sat down, watching quietly.

This kind of farming machine that integrates weeding, turning the soil, fertilizing, spraying pesticides, and harvesting is really powerful. It took Wei Heng only half an hour to clear several acres of land around the house.

Moreover, deep plowing operations have also been carried out.

The wild plants that originally occupied this land were ruthlessly crushed by the machinery, turned into nutrients, and reintegrated into the earth.

But Gu Xi sensed that deep in the ground, the roots of those deeply buried plants were still active, and a new round of land scrambling soon began...

If the roots of these plants are not completely strangled, the land that has just been cleared will soon be occupied by them again.

Wei Heng obviously knew this truth too.

He turned over and jumped off the farming machine, lifted the corner of his clothes and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and walked towards Gu Xi: "This is the only way for now, there is something wrong with my soil ability, the rest of the work..."

He was just about to say that he had asked another earth-type superpower in the camp, and the other party would come over in the afternoon to help use the soil-type power to completely strangle the roots of plants deep in the ground, when Gu Xi stood up and walked forward After a few steps: "...I'll do it."

You come?

Before Wei Heng could react, he saw some familiar little green shoots jump out from Gu Xi's fingertips quickly, and then burrowed into the field he had just cleared...

Wei Heng: "...!!!"

He is an earth-type ability user, so don't be too familiar with the fluctuation of earth-type abilities.But Gu Xi, isn't she a wood-type supernatural being?how come……

"Gu Xi, you...are a dual-line power user?" Wei Heng thought of a certain possibility.

"Yeah." Gu Xi nodded vaguely.

Wei Heng's mood is a bit complicated: the reason why he offered to partner with Gu Xi to farm the land was originally because he wanted to take care of the little girl he picked up from the ruins.

did not expect.
With the ability of both civil engineering and civil engineering, this is a natural farmer.
