the beginning of the end

Chapter 78

"As for the matter of Qin Yan, don't inquire about it. This person's position in the base is not low. He usually shows his talents and doesn't like to show off. Let his subordinates do risky things. There are not many people who have passed him, but this person's methods behind his back are very vicious. For this reason, he has offended many people, and now he has touched the bottom line of some people in the base, and it won't last long. "Du Ziteng's words clearly told Shen Xi and the others that there will be a struggle among the senior management of the base, and someone will deal with Qin Yan, so they should not inquire about this person, so as not to get involved.

Shen Xi and Mu Qiangguo nodded. The reason why they were so eager to know about Qin Yan was because of the crystals. Now that they have understood the function of the crystals, they are naturally not interested in Qin Yan. .

"Brother Du, can you get the crystals in the base now?" Seeing that Du Ziteng had finished speaking, Shen Zhi endured it and asked this question.

As soon as Shen Zhi finished asking, Mu Jianguo also looked at Du Ziteng expectantly. Although the two of them knew from Du Ziteng's mouth that after taking the liquid in the crystal body, they may not necessarily awaken their abilities, and may even be dangerous. But the two of them But they don't want to give up that only chance. After all, there is hope at least if they take the liquid in the crystal body, if they don't take it, they don't even have any hope.

In this apocalyptic world, becoming a person with supernatural powers is the pursuit of every man. What's more, after knowing that Shen Xi and Mu Qiangguo are both cultivators, although Shen Zhi and Mu Jianguo did not usually show it, they still have a strong sense of strength. The pursuit is more intense.

"Xiaozhi." How could Mo Cheng not be able to guess what Shen Zhi was thinking, and he didn't know how to speak when he wanted to persuade him. If he was in Shen Zhi's position, he would definitely not give up the opportunity to awaken his ability.

Seeing everyone staring at him hesitating to speak, Shen Zhi smiled indifferently: "You don't need to persuade me, I will not change this decision, I think Jianguo must be thinking the same way as I do now. the same. right?"

Shen Zhi turned his head to look at Mu Jianguo, and Mu Jianguo nodded firmly.

"I knew Jianguo was the same as what I thought. As a man, who doesn't want to have the ability to protect his family, and who doesn't want to become stronger. Besides, no matter at any time, opportunities and crises coexist. If you want to succeed, you must I can't back down even the slightest bit. If I give up this time because of the danger, maybe next time, when faced with the same choice, I will still choose to give up. Then I won't be able to succeed in my life. I I don't want to become that kind of person who even looks down on me. I can't make you think about my safety every time I go out on a mission." Shen Zhi said what he wanted to say at once, in fact, he There is one more thing that he didn't say, he didn't want to become a drag on Mo Cheng every time he went on a mission.

Shen Xi and the others have never seen such a rational Shen Zhi, but even Mo Cheng, who is Shen Zhi's closest friend, cannot refute his words.

"Besides, Jianguo and I have such good physiques, the awakening ability will definitely not fail. You can rest assured." Shen Zhi patted his chest and smiled very proudly.

"Brother, don't worry, Shen Zhi and I will be fine." Hearing what Shen Zhi said, Mu Jianguo also confidently echoed Shen Zhi's words to the others.

Knowing that Shen Zhi and Mu Jianguo's words were to comfort everyone, Shen Xi and Mu Qiangguo knew that it would be useless to try to persuade them at this moment, so Shen Xi simply asked Du Ziteng a crucial question: "Brother Du, I want to know, what is the probability of success for the mutants after taking the liquid in the crystal body?"

Du Ziteng directly raised a hand and compared the number five. That is, there is a [-]% chance of awakening the ability, and a [-]% chance of failure. As for the consequences, Du Ziteng didn't say anything.

Shen Xi didn't ask either, and he didn't want to put pressure on Shen Zhi and Mu Jianguo after asking about the result.

However, there is a [-]% chance, whether it is big or small.

"Brother Du, at this time, can you get the crystals in the base?" Mo Cheng asked what Shen Zhi asked at the beginning just now, and what Du Ziteng hadn't answered, Shen Zhi's eyes lit up as soon as he said those words. Standing up, he looked at Mo Cheng in disbelief. He originally thought that Mo Cheng would definitely not agree, but he didn't expect ```

"Since you have already made a decision, I will naturally help you to complete it." As if knowing what Shen Zhi was thinking right now, Mo Cheng said seriously to Shen Zhi who was looking over. He had also made a decision in his heart, and he would definitely not The chance to let Shen Zhi awaken the ability failed.

Moreover, at the beginning of the end of the world, the two escaped from the big city all the way. Although Mo Cheng was much stronger than Shen Zhi in terms of strength, but it was not because of this guy's luck that the two escaped danger time and time again.

Later, he forced this guy to get close with the two big brothers Mu Qiangguo and Shen Xi, and got on the list of the luckiest ship in his life.

He didn't think that with Shen Zhi's luck, the awakening ability would fail.

Seeing Shen Zhi and Mu Jianguo looking at him again without flinching, Du Ziteng heard what the two said just now, knowing that there was nothing to say, and sighed; "If you really want, I can help You can ask. However, even if you ask at that time, you may need to exchange food, and I can only help you get three at most. Although this thing has not been spread in the base, but Mutated animals with special abilities are indeed too difficult to catch, there are not many in the base, and those crystals were hunted by many people at risk."

When Du Ziteng said that at most three crystals could be obtained, Shen Xi thought for a while and kept two. Shen Zhi and Mu Jianguo each had one, and the remaining one was used by him and Mu Qiangguo for further experiments to see if it could be done. Find a way to find out a greater chance of Shen Zhi and Mu Jianguo awakening their abilities.

Shen Zhi and Mu Jianguo became excited after hearing Du Ziteng's words, and their faces also had an excited expression, but after knowing that the crystals had to be exchanged for food, the two hesitated and hesitated.

Shen Xi, who came back to his senses, saw the changes in Shen Zhi and the two at a glance, and said to Du Ziteng without hesitation: "After you ask us, how much food will be needed in exchange for that time, just tell me. Three A crystal, we all want." As long as the winter is over, they can go hunting by themselves then.

Now that this matter has been settled, everyone is no longer entangled, let go of this topic, and talked about other things.

At noon, Mrs. Mu really made Du Ziteng a very nourishing soup, and she kept persuading him to eat it. Du Ziteng was not polite, his stomach was like a bottomless pit, and he would not refuse anyone who came.

At the end of the meal, even Mu Xibao was a little curious about how big Uncle Du's belly was and how much food it could hold, so he touched and touched it strangely, which made the other adults laugh out loud.

Especially Mrs. Mu, who almost couldn't stop laughing.

Du Ziteng immediately hugged Mu Xibao and kissed him, feeling that the little guy is so cute and so painful.

In the afternoon, because he was worried about Du Ziteng's physical condition, Li Gang took time to come over after finishing his work. Seeing that Du Ziteng was sitting in Mu Qiang's country safe and sound, he was relieved.

Originally, he planned to go back after seeing that Du Ziteng was fine, but was forced by Mrs. Mu to stay. The old lady also had a good impression of Li Gang, a young man who often followed Du Ziteng, and of course she would not let people go when he came.

Li Gang blushed and was dragged by Mrs. Mu to stay.

Du Ziteng was still yelling that Li Gang was lucky, he came at the right time, which made Li Gang even more embarrassed, neither standing nor sitting.

Seeing that his brother wasn't teasing at all, Du Ziteng laughed happily.

In the end, it was Mu Qiangguo who couldn't stand it and helped out.

In the evening, Mu Qiangguo was the one who started the seasoning, the old lady Mu was in charge of steaming the steamed buns, the others were helping to prepare the dishes for the evening, and even the youngest Mu Xibao was excited to help again Washing vegetables, but this time I used hot water. After washing, Shen Xi hurriedly warmed his son's hands, but they didn't freeze.

Let's work together, the hot pot dishes at night are naturally rich, and it is indeed a full enjoyment to eat hot pot in such a cold weather. Not to mention that everyone eats hot pot, the whole body is warm, and it seems that there is no sense of outside the door It was cold, and even Mu Xibao and Shen Xi, who didn't like spicy food very much, let their son eat a little.

After dinner, Du Ziteng took Li Gang back,

On the second day, the temperature suddenly dropped to tens of degrees below zero, and the snow still did not stop. The water stored the day before was directly frozen into ice, and the whole thing was attached to the wooden barrel, which could not be shaken off. There was no other way, everyone had to Take out the ice and heat it in a pot for reuse.

Even the mutated physiques of Shen Zhi and Mu Jianguo couldn't stand the low temperature outside. Not to mention, the old lady Mu and Da Ya, who are ordinary people, if it wasn't for Shen Xi's sleep in the space these few days before going to bed. I took out the smokeless charcoal, and asked the old lady to burn a big pot in the room where they slept, and maybe the two of them would catch a cold. In this weather, it is not good for the old and the young to be sick.

Fearing that Shen Zhi and Mu Jianguo would not be able to stand the cold when they went out, Mu Qiangguo didn't let them go out. He simply let Shen Zhi and Mu Jianguo stay in the room, and burned a pot of charcoal to warm the room first. You won't feel cold when eating.

As for the task of going out to sweep the snow in the morning, Shen Xi, Mu Qiangguo, and Mo Cheng will complete it.

I don't know if it has something to do with Mocheng's ice-type ability. In such a cold weather, Mocheng obviously suffers from the cold a lot more than other people with abilities. For Xia Lei alone, he has three types of abilities, all of which are better than Mocheng. The city is getting a lot colder.
