Apocalypse Tree of Hope

Chapter 288 Tao's Knot
Although Lin Rantong's space can be used for farming, there is only such a small piece of land, and it takes several days to mature. Even if all the fruit trees are pulled out and all crops are planted, it can feed and drink 200 people. , There are tens of thousands of people in the base, and it is impossible for her to help everyone.

Lin Rantong also knew in her heart that she was unable to save everyone, and she knew better that she would not save everyone. Her heart is now much colder than at the beginning. Perhaps as time goes by, the living environment becomes more and more serious. It's getting crueler and more indifferent, but when someone touches the softness in her heart, she still can't help stretching out her hand.

Although the little boy ate very slowly, the rice ball was too small, so he finished it quickly and licked his fingers fiercely.

The old man sighed and said, "My dear grandson, let's go."

The old man took the little boy and went away. The little boy didn't expect that there was a huge surprise waiting for him in his bag, but when he found out, the grandparent and grandson couldn't figure out who put the precious steamed buns in the bag. into his bag.

This incident was remembered by the little boy in his heart, and he never forgot it until he grew up. It was a rare warmth in his life after the end of the world.Also because of this, when he became a high-level ability user admired by everyone, he was not as indifferent and ruthless as most experts, but gave a little help to those who were struggling to survive when allowed.

Naturally, Lin Rantong didn't know that a single act of hers changed a person's behavior throughout his life.

All the things of the day were finally over, and everyone in the Ivy League dragged their tired bodies back.

Lin Rantong was about to wipe his sweat with his hands when Liu Yuan handed him a cloth of unknown material.

Lin Rantong took it and felt it was very soft. She picked it up and wiped off her sweat. The two looked at each other and smiled.

No matter how tired or dangerous, as long as the family is together, there is nothing to be afraid of.

Tao Haiyang was very silent, even more silent than the day he just met Liu Yuan, the silence was a little decadent, and he looked depressed.

Liu Yu quietly pulled Lin Rantong while no one was paying attention: "Sister-in-law, I think something is wrong with Brother Tao today."

Lin Rantong pursed her lips.

Seeing that Lin Rantong didn't speak, Liu Yu knew what she was worried about, and said in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, I think Brother Tao is not only because of that incident, he only looks like this today..."

Lin Rantong nodded and said in a low voice: "I see, I'll ask him."

She understood what Liu Yu meant. No matter what she said, she was the leader of the Ivy League team after all, and she should go to understand any problems with the team members. Public affairs and private affairs should not be confused.

Back home, everyone dispersed.

Seeing An Ran's return, the big white cat leaped towards An Ran's shoulder, and at the same time raised its paws at the big tiger who came back from the battle.

Since the little monkey heard Lin Rantong tell the story of Journey to the West that day, he has demanded himself by the standards of Monkey King, and he feels that he is a character after participating in battles every day, so he nodded reservedly when he saw this.

The big eagle waved its wings politely. As for the white-haired tiger, it lifted its head and let out a breath from its nose, then walked away with strides.

The big white cat was already used to it, so it glanced indifferently, then buried its head on An Ran's neck and rubbed vigorously.

An Ran giggled and pulled the white cat down by its tail, then raised her head and said, "Mom, I went to play in Uncle Wang's house."

Lin Rantong smiled and nodded.

It's strange to say that blood relationship is so wonderful, even though An Ran didn't recognize Liu Yuan as the father he had longed for, but when he saw Liu Yuan, he felt very close to him from the bottom of his heart, and unknowingly regarded him as his father , I like staying with him very much.

Lin Rantong came to Tao Haiyang's room and knocked on the door.

"Come in, the door is unlocked." Tao Haiyang's casual voice came.

Lin Rantong pushed the door open and entered, but found Tao Haiyang half leaning on the bed, looking at the door.

There was no lighting in the room, and the moonlight poured in from the window, his face was hazy and unclear, only his eyes were amazingly bright.

Seeing Lin Rantong coming in, Tao Haiyang didn't speak, but just looked at her with burning eyes.

Lin Rantong felt that the atmosphere was very ambiguous, so he walked into the room without closing the door.

"What's the matter?" Tao Haiyang finally asked, but his voice was astringent.

Lin Rantong was stunned for a moment, she had never seen Tao Haiyang like this before, he was always enthusiastic, sunny, and even chatty, but he had never asked her indifferently if she was okay like now.

For a moment she didn't know what to say.

Maybe, maybe he just couldn't figure out what happened to Liu Yuan for a while, and there were no other things like what Liu Yu said, so why did he come here and ask him like this?

Lin Rantong's face was hot, and he felt that he was deliberately provoking people like this, so he hurriedly said "it's okay", turned around and was about to go out.

A hand stretched out behind her and hugged her fiercely.

Lin Rantong was about to struggle when Tao Haiyang's low voice came: "Don't move, please, let me give you a hug, I have something to do."

There was so much pain in the voice that Lin Rantong forgot to move for a moment.

That strong masculine breath instantly surrounded her, it was very clean and fresh, like the smell of sunshine, but the breath flowing around her was so sad.

Lin Rantong's whole body froze, she knew she should push him away, but at this moment, she couldn't bear to stretch out her hand, so she could only stretch her body tightly.

Feeling the warmth of the beloved in his arms, Tao Haiyang felt as if a fire was burning in his heart, and the blood in his whole body seemed to be boiling, rushing to his lower abdomen.

This was supposed to be his woman, the woman who had been in his heart since he was a teenager, but she happened to be someone else's wife.

She can be happy, I only have silent blessings, but the end of the world has come again, and when he meets her again, she has already died of her husband, and she is living tenaciously with such a young son, and her life is far beyond what she imagined Well, how could he not like her like this, how could he let him go.

But Goddess of Fate played tricks on him again, he thought they still have a long time, he would occupy her heart bit by bit, but before that time, that Wang Chen appeared, if he was an ordinary person That's all, it just makes him feel that he is not a human being at all, how can he be reconciled to such a person, how can he rest assured!

Tao Haiyang clenched his lips, feeling an urge to throw the person in his arms on the bed and rub them into his body, but the only remaining clear consciousness told him that if he did that, he and she would become friends in the future. Can't do it!
I don't know how long it has passed, it may be just a moment for the two of them, but it seems like thousands of years.

Tao Haiyang finally pushed Lin Rantong away with difficulty, and Lin Rantong clearly felt his reluctance, struggle, and... desire.

"I'm sorry." Tao Haiyang looked at Lin Rantong's eyebrows and said softly.

Lin Rantong lowered his head and said nothing. No matter what he said at this time, he felt it was inappropriate.

"Sit for a while, do you want to drink water?" Tao Haiyang said and walked to the table, looked at the empty kettle, turned back again, and said with a smile: "I'm poor and white, there's nothing to entertain."

Seeing Tao Haiyang smiled, Lin Rantong breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Tao Haiyang, I think something is wrong with you today, what's wrong?"

Tao Haiyang stared at Lin Rantong, suddenly rolled his eyes and smiled: "Rantong, are you caring about me?"

If it was before, Lin Rantong would naturally reply with a sentence of less self-indulgence, but this time he couldn't say such words, and just said: "That's natural, you—"

"I'm an Ivy League player, and you're the captain. You should care about me. Hehe, I knew you would say that." Tao Haiyang interrupted Lin Rantong.

Lin Rantong bit her lip, God, what else can I say after I let him say the lines?
"Lin Rantong, don't you know it's hurtful to say that, I would rather you don't say anything." After a few seconds of silence, Tao Haiyang said with a bitter voice.

Lin Rantong felt that coming to Tao Haiyang today was the stupidest thing she ever did. She had the urge to run away with her head in her arms, but she resisted it. How do you meet in person.

She knew that she couldn't keep silent anymore, she came to see what was wrong with him, not to flirt.

Lin Rantong raised his head openly, looked at Tao Haiyang with clear eyes and said, "Tao Haiyang, I know you are like this, and it must not be just because of our business. Is there anything else you can tell me?"

After a long silence, Tao Haiyang finally said in a low voice: "Rantong, I have been in a bad mood for the past two days, and today I have experienced a whole day of fighting, and I am even more confused."

"What are you confused about?" Lin Rantong asked.

Tao Haiyang sighed softly, and said slowly: "Today I saw so many people who were bitten by zombies rushing into the corpses, just because they knew they would become zombies, so they would rather die without a whole corpse." Kill a zombie, but only I know that I can save most people who are bitten by zombies!"

Lin Rantong finally knew where his knot was. He had a hard heart all by himself, but he chose to stand by in the face of so many people who could have been saved. It's no wonder that Tao Haiyang's condition looks so bad.

"Tao Haiyang, it is impossible for you to save so many people. Maybe everyone's fate is preordained. If you forcefully change your life, there will still be so many people, and there will definitely be extremely serious consequences." Lin Rantong said.

Tao Haiyang nodded slightly: "Of course I understand this, but this feeling is still uncomfortable. I feel that I am becoming more and more cold-blooded and ruthless. Sometimes I would rather that what I have is not a light power, but an ordinary power. "

Why didn't he know that at this time, because everyone was desperate and focused on dealing with zombies without fear, what if they knew that there was a high-level light-system power user around them who could save a small number of people?
