Traveling through the new apocalyptic era

Chapter 187 Chapter 187
Another month passed, and security at the base was indeed tightened, but the chaos did not diminish.

Because of the shortage of food supply, all the crops in the field died in the past two months. The plants that were originally growing rapidly and wanted to mutate have also stopped growing due to the lack of sunlight.

This can be regarded as a mixture of joy and sorrow.

However, a large number of people in the base were unemployed and there was a shortage of food exchange. Everyone felt a sense of crisis and went out of their homes to exchange food at various offices.

Since the catastrophe, all living people have the habit of hoarding food. Even if everyone now has a surplus of food at home, the sense of crisis still makes everyone start to rush for food.

There is a long queue at the door of every office. Even if there is a daily purchase limit, everyone can only buy five kilograms of grains at a time, whether it is grains or fine grains, everyone is still willing to queue for an hour or two.

Yin's father and Yin's mother would also line up to exchange food from time to time. If you don't line up, you will become an alien in everyone's eyes. That means you still have a lot of food in your home, and you will become the object of everyone's thoughts. .

When the base announced on the tenth day that it would suspend the exchange of grain, the disappointed and frightened people almost smashed down the door of the office.

Father Yin brought Mother Yin back and he breathed a sigh of relief. In the past few days, he had gone out with people in the community to queue up to exchange supplies. He went in and out together, just to avoid being robbed of supplies.

This time there was no exchange, so Yin's father breathed a sigh of relief. He was always nervous every time he went out. Fortunately, there were many of them and they were close together, and there were guards patrolling nearby, so he could get in and out safely every time.

Yin Ling wanted to go back to the Lingshan base to check the situation, but she was worried about the situation here, so she had to arrange training for her parents every day, hoping that they would be able to protect themselves when she was away.

Three months have passed, and no one knows when the polar night will end. The current system of the base has not collapsed. This is because everyone's food reserves are still sufficient, and they can still survive for a while if they live frugally.

The yard of Yin Ling's villa has been cleaned up by his father. The vegetable shelves that were built before were dismantled and stored in the back storage room. The yard suddenly opened up.

Even if there is abundant spiritual energy and fertile spiritual soil, without the nourishment of sunlight, these plants will still lose their vitality.

That day, Yin Ling knew her father was practicing boxing at home, but was interrupted by a knock on the door.

Father Yin opened the door and after looking carefully, he recognized that this was a practitioner who had been to his home before and his daughter's colleague. He quickly welcomed him into the house.

Yin Ling was not at all surprised when he saw the visitor. What is supposed to come will always come.

"Old Liu, why are you here?"

The person who came was the captain of her previous team, Lao Liu. She didn’t know his full name, but everyone called him Lao Liu.

Yin Ling welcomed him into the small study room that was renovated on the first floor to make it easier to talk.

"After the polar night, the alien beasts at the base have mutated frequently. In the past week, two groups of alien beasts have attacked, including the alien beasts from the Foundation Establishment Stage. In addition, Sun Xueling, another Foundation Establishment Stage monk at the base, has disappeared. So Minister Shi asked me to ask you to go back and assist him."

Yin Ling asked about other situations. It turned out that after the extreme night, the base recalled all cultivators. A group of people, including Xiao Feng, returned very late, and everyone knew that they encountered special circumstances.

It turns out that before everyone arrived at the small base or gathering place, humans who were bitten by black snakes and did not deal with them in time would mutate and survive by relying on something unknown.

Fortunately, the base has had this experience before, and all the people who were poisoned before were cremated and arranged by the base.

However, there are still quite a lot of hidden dangers outside, so the base also sent some people to the small bases that had records in the past to investigate the situation. When encountering such a situation, they would kill them all to eliminate future troubles forever.

After understanding the general situation, Yin Ling said goodbye to her parents and told them not to go out recently. The hallway at home was being reinforced and they could hide if anything happened.

Now that her skill has recovered to the eighth level, she can already wield a sword. It will be no problem to come back once every three to five days.

She was also considering whether to take her family back to Lingshan Base, but considering the current situation, she decided that it would be safer for them to stay here.The Lingshan base may be captured by alien beasts at any time, and she may not be able to take her family away immediately.

After getting into Lao Liu's car, he drove all the way to Lingshan Base.

In the night sky, apart from the dim lights of the base behind him and the bright moon in the sky, the only thing that illuminated the road was the car lights.

The grass on the road was all withered, but the tall trees in the distance were still hanging their leaves firmly. The car was bumpy and drove very fast, which showed that Lao Liu was a little anxious.

The car drove for ten hours and arrived at the outskirts of the base very quickly. It was very quiet here. The cultivators and troops who had previously gathered at the outskirts for tasks had also moved back to the inner and central areas.

Two hours later, Yin Ling returned to the familiar inner area, but saw wounded people being brought out one after another. At this sight, he knew that something had happened.

Yin Ling hurried over, and there were people around him rushing in the same direction.

"There is a herd of alien beasts, go and support!"

People kept being sent out.The emergency sirens kept sounding outside.

Troops arrived, some to assist in the transfer of the wounded, and some to stand outside with weapons ready to fight.

When Yin Ling arrived, he saw chaos in the inner court. Strange beasts kept coming out of the north gate. He searched everywhere. When he found Shi Jia, he was dealing with a strange beast in the late stage of foundation building.

This alien beast is much smaller than other alien beasts, but it is sometimes twice as big.

The body shape is very different from other exotic beasts. Not only is the body slightly petite, but the body shape is also very flexible.

Much like an orangutan, but more powerful and stronger than a monkey.

Shijia could only barely contain him and could not confront him head-on.

Yin Ling looked at the strange beasts that were still coming out one after another, and already noticed that something was wrong. Today, the Lingshan base might be lost.

Although I had been prepared for it for a long time, I didn't expect this day to come so quickly.

He slashed at the oncoming beast with his sword, killing him on the spot.

He pulled an injured brother and pushed him back, "Leave quickly!"

"Sister Yin Ling!"

Yin Ling turned around and saw that the boy he pushed away just now turned out to be Xiao Feng. There was a lot of blood on his face and body, and it was really difficult to identify him for a moment.

"Get out!"

After Yin Ling finished speaking, she walked forward without looking back. She was going to help Shi Jia.

As long as they deal with this strange beast in the late stage of foundation building, they still have a chance to win this battle today.

Xiao Feng covered his injured arm and avoided the attacking beast. After one last glance in Yin Ling's direction, he walked directly outside. He wanted to find his sister and take her away.
