Apocalypse Tree of Hope

Chapter 19 The Second Darkness
"Mom—" An Ran stretched out her chubby little hand, and threw herself into Lin Rantong's arms.An Ran has become more sensible since possessing supernatural powers, almost like a five or six-year-old child.He misses his mother very much. The adults tell him that his mother is not feeling well and that he should let her have a good rest. As a child, he resists thinking about his mother and counts the days every day.

Lin Rantong picked up An Ran and kissed her, and found a large pot of stewed cabbage on the table, and couldn't help laughing: "So you are eating this."

Tang Tang looked aggrieved and complained: "Rantong, if you don't care about us, we will become rabbits!"

Everyone who spoke laughed, and the slightly stiff atmosphere when Lin Rantong first appeared was suddenly broken.

"Sister-in-law." Liu Yu shouted loudly, then quickly lowered her head, her little melon-seeded face was almost buried in the bowl.

Lin Rantong looked at Liu Yu without making a sound.Her feelings towards Liu Yu are complicated. After listening to Xia Yongjia's objective narration, she knew that on the one hand, Liu Yu was responsible for Liu Yuan's death, which made her have to complain. On the other hand, Liu Yu was Liu Yu's death. Yuan's younger sister is her husband's only relative besides her and her son, which makes her not know how to deal with this sensitive and delicate sister-in-law.

Tang Tang saw that Lin Rantong was silent, and the atmosphere was a little awkward, so he hurriedly said: "Rantong, you know, it's dark again!"

Lin Rantong was startled, and quickly asked, "When? Why don't I know?"

It was dark last time, and zombies were rampant as a result. If it got dark again, what disaster would everyone face?

Xia Yongjia said, "Just two days ago, it suddenly became dark again for 5 minutes." At that time, he was panicked, he was afraid that when he saw the light again, there would be a few more zombies in front of him.

It turned out that it was at that time, Lin Rantong smiled bitterly. At that time, he was completely immersed in the grief of losing his husband, and he was in a daze, so it's not surprising that he didn't find it.

"Rantong, what shall we do?" Tang Tang looked worried.

"Yongjia, did Tang Tang tell you about the supernatural beings?" Lin Rantong didn't answer Tang Tang's words, but looked at Xia Yongjia and asked.

"Well, we all know it. In this way, I have wood-type abilities." Xia Yongjia replied.

Lin Rantong nodded slightly: "Among the few of us, Tang Tang is a fire-type power user, Yong Jia is a wood-type power user, but he is an earth-type power user, I am a space-type power user, and Dashan is a power-type power user." Flying mutants, then everyone, tell us about your general abilities."

Speaking of this, Lin Rantong secretly wondered. The radio said that the chance of becoming a supernatural person is one in a thousand. How come everyone around him has become a supernatural person?Little did they know, it was also due to the small stream in her space.Drinking that stream water won't make people feel miraculous right away, but if you drink too much, it can slowly improve your physique, speed up the recovery of abilities, and increase the chances of ordinary people becoming persons with abilities.Of course, these are very slow, so that Lin Rantong didn't notice it now.

After listening to Lin Rantong's words, several people thought about how to describe their abilities.No one noticed that Liu Yu's body stiffened slightly, and his head lowered even lower.

Tang Tang spoke first: "I can send fireballs, maybe a dozen times, and I'm still groping for others."

Xia Yongjia continued: "I can summon the thorns of cactus to attack. By the way, my ability can also heal the wound to a certain extent. I accidentally cut my leg while avoiding zombies that day. I was trying to treat the wound. I used the ability, but I didn’t expect the wound to disappear.”

"Yongjia, no wonder my cactus is bare. I don't know where the thorns are. It turned out to be summoned by you." Lin Rantong said teasingly.

Xia Yongjia smiled innocently, his eyes narrowed into slits, and Lin Rantong curled his lips secretly. This guy is honest and honest on the surface, and a group of aunts who often confuse him say that he is honest and reliable, but in fact he has the potential to have a dark belly.

"Sister, I'm also very good, I can catch you in the air!" Little Fatty Lin Dashan hurriedly claimed the credit.

Lin Rantong pinched Lin Dashan's little nose: "Dashan, Auntie is really grateful to you, you are such an amazing child."

"I'm not a child, and besides, you're my sister, not my aunt!" The little fat man said awkwardly, his face puffed up.

"Lin Dashan! Did you mean it, I'll say it one last time, or you can call me sister, or you can call me Auntie Rantong!" Tang Tang showed signs of going crazy again.

"Sister, Aunt Tang bullied me again." Lin Dashan quickly hid behind Lin Rantong, and stuck out his head at Tang Tang. Tang Tang was so angry that he stood up and wanted to chase.

Lin Rantong saw that everyone was going off topic again gorgeously, so he hurriedly comforted him: "Stop making trouble, let's get down to business."

Several people quieted down and looked at Lin Rantong.

"Tang Tang, what's the news on the radio these days, especially since the second darkness?" Lin Rantong asked.

Tang Tang thought for a while and replied: "The radio said that many roads are impassable, some are broken, some are arched high, and some are covered with plants. Other situations are still being explored."

"So, it will be very difficult to travel long distances in the future." Lin Rantong tapped his finger on the table while talking, and the ring on his ring finger shone brightly.

"Rantong, why don't we go to the Pearl Base quickly, who knows what the world will become in the future." Tang Tang said.

"No, it is precisely because we don't know what will happen in the future, so we can't go to the base now, at least we have to wait until the danger that will appear after the second darkness is mentioned on the radio." Lin Rantong said.

Looking at the calm and calm woman in front of him, Xia Yongjia felt relieved, Liu Yuan, how lucky you are to have such a strong and intelligent wife, don't worry, she will take good care of herself and her son, and live well.

"My ability is storage. Before coming here, Tang Tang and I have collected a lot of food and water, so don't worry about this. In addition, Yongjia you still have simple healing ability, then we can go first Let's live here for a while, after all, safety comes first." Lin Rantong said patiently, she is not ready to reveal what the space can grow.

"Eat first, I feel a little uncomfortable and go back to my room to rest." Liu Yu, who had been silent all this time, put down his chopsticks, said hastily, turned and walked into his bedroom, and closed the door with a "bang".

The few people left looked at each other.

"Rantong, Liu Yu?" Tang Tang found that something was wrong with Liu Yu in the past few days. She didn't like to talk, and she ate very little, because she was still not familiar with her. Even though they lived in the same room, she couldn't ask. .In fact, the most important thing was that Liu Yu didn't communicate with her at all. She just wanted to open her mouth when she saw Liu Yu's teary eyes, and she didn't know what to say.

Lin Rantong's house has three rooms, one of which belongs to Lin Rantong and An Ran, one between Tang Tang and Liu Yu, and one between Xia Yongjia and Lin Dashan.Although Xia Yongjia's home is just across the street, Liu Yu is terrified of being alone, and must be accompanied by Xia Yongjia.Xia Yongjia thought that it would be safe for everyone to gather together during this extraordinary period, so he agreed. Long before Lin Rantong and the others came, he moved all the usable things at home to Liu Yuan's house.

Lin Rantong smiled faintly: "I don't know what's wrong with her." In fact, it's not that she doesn't understand Liu Yu's thoughts, but she just doesn't want to comfort others when she is most sad. She has never been a saint.

Xia Yongjia stood up and said while walking, "I'll go and see, this girl is very thoughtful."

At this moment, there was only a "dong dong" knock on the door.

Who could it be? No one would still be in the mood to drop by at this time, right?Could it be that zombies also learned to knock on doors?A strange idea came to everyone's mind.

Lin Rantong's two daughters looked at Xia Yongjia, Xia Yongjia spread his hands, expressing that he didn't know either.

Hearing the knock on the door was still ringing, it seemed that there was a vow not to let it go, the eyes of the three adults exchanged slightly, Xia Yongjia turned and walked towards the door.
