Chapter 62 The Pain of Breathing (62)

This time the people from Aimaila came very quickly. The believers didn't say much. After finishing their routine prayers, they took Yu Di to the east. They were not driving an isolation vehicle, and about twenty people passed by along the way.

There are multiple rebellious strongholds. When getting off the car to replenish supplies, Yu Di took the opportunity to measure the soil acidity and air pollution levels of these strongholds.

Sure enough, the former was aggravated and the latter was relieved. Yu Di leaned on the seat with her eyes closed, sifting through the events about Cheng Die over and over in her mind. Logically speaking, if the plant seeds Cheng Die gave her were really what she said,

Okay, my task should be completed. The system has not moved yet, which means that the event line I am currently in has not reached a node that can lead to an inevitable result.

People say that even the human civilization in this world may still be heading towards destruction.

According to the world's distress information and past retrieved events, the turning point for the continuation of human civilization is whether they can return to the ground. Yu Di has always been very insistent on this matter.

Although I don't want to admit it, the construction of open above-ground planting sites in underground cities is a positive event for the result of "returning to the ground". The largest society of mankind at present is underground cities, and secondly, there are only a few people in front of underground cities.

They dared to sneak up and make small moves, but both of them were now looking at the ground.

Yu Di couldn't understand, what else could reverse this "social trend"?

According to the available information, the problem can only lie in the alkali melon itself. Cheng Die must have done something. Yu Di became more and more irritable and his expression became colder - this is what she has been doing in the shelter over the years.

Yu Hongfeng and the others have developed a habit of staying together. No matter what happens, they must not reveal even a trace of their helplessness and timidity.

Finally, the driver woke her up.

"Yudi, we have to get off the bus from here. You take a rest first, and we will enter the buffer zone of Class C city at sunset."

"Well, thank you for your hard work." Yu Di gave them a bag of homemade dried soda melon.

The driver smiled and accepted it, reminding her that she must rest in advance and that once she entered the buffer zone, she must not stop before arriving at the meeting place. Yu Di put on the camouflage smock handed to her and followed the instructions without saying a word until

We came to a cellar manhole cover that looked the same.

The person leading her was obviously very familiar with this kind of action. He knocked on the manhole cover regularly a few times, and the people underneath responded. The manhole cover slowly moved to create a small opening big enough for one person to pass through, and Yu Di followed.

The other person slowly slipped out of the dark hole and heard the person inside say: "Thank the Lord. There is no lighting here. You put your hand on the shoulder of the person in front and walk with your head down. There are no obstacles on the whole road, as long as

If you don’t hit the person in front of you, you won’t fall.”

"Okay." Yu Di followed the good advice.

The air filtered through the respirator always had a plastic smell. But the atmosphere in the "secret passage" was too sticky and depressing. Yu Di bet that if he could take off the mask and smell it, the air inside would be

The smell must be even more disgusting than the surface.

Just as the other party said, the entire road was very smooth, without even a single pebble. They were not walking slowly, but they still walked for a long time. They followed the people in front of them and turned around until Yu Di began to doubt himself.

There was something wrong with their eyesight before the three-person team stopped.

"Follow me."

The other party pushed open the cellar manhole cover at the end, and a faint yellow light spread from the outside, much like the old-fashioned desk lamps from the 1990s. The light was very dim and did not require adaptation. After climbing out, Yu Di found himself in

Within an isolation net, the cellar manhole cover is right on the edge of the net.

The yellow light that just shined into the tunnel was the warning light installed on the isolation network.

The leader motioned for Yu Di to follow, and the three of them got into a warehouse where materials were stacked. There were many containers in the warehouse, one of which had an "S" mark painted on it. There was an old lock hanging on the door of the container.

The leader walked over and put his eyes close to the lock - it turned out to be an old iris lock.

After the door opened, there was another cave underneath. This scene was inexplicably familiar. Yu Di followed him down, and Cheng Die was waiting inside with his back to them.

"This place looks like the shelter you built by yourself." Yu Di said.

"Yeah." Cheng Die's vocal cords seemed to be injured, and her voice was strange, as rough as tires grinding against gravel.

"Are you okay?" Yu Di asked softly. Although she guessed that something had happened, she still wanted to hear Cheng Die say what it was specifically.

Cheng Die did not answer her, but asked the other two to leave first. "Please give us some time. I will send her out in half an hour."

"good."

It wasn't until the rebellious man locked the door of the container that Cheng Die slowly turned around.

"You look a little haggard." She said to Yu Di.

"Yes, anyone who does farm work year-round will age quickly."

"I have a question." Cheng Die sat cross-legged on the ground and motioned for Yu Di to sit opposite her.

"I have a question too."

"I know what you want to ask. Let me ask first."

Yu Di shrugged: "Okay."

"Are you going to die?" Cheng Die looked into her eyes.

Yu Di raised his eyebrows: "I should have told you that in a sense, I am already a dead person."

"But you are alive in our world."

"Yes. If you ask me if I will die in this world, my answer is, yes. If you are killed, you will die."

"In other words, if you don't get killed, you won't die?"

"I don't know." Yu Di looked at Cheng Die.

She really didn't know, after all, she hadn't lived to the age where she could die of old age, nor had she contracted any fatal disease. She just guessed that neither the system nor the world would let her die easily before completing the mission.

"Why did you come?"

"I don't know," Yu Di frowned, "I thought we had already discussed these issues, right?"

Cheng Die sighed: "Yes, it is true." She changed the subject, "The seeds I gave you are indeed new varieties of alkaline melons. However, I have reverse-edited their genes."

Cheng Die's words confirmed Yu Di's guess. She couldn't help but feel a little angry: "Why?"

The aging woman in front of her looked confused: "Why are you here? You came here like a savior, possessing some unspeakable ability. You even know everything I have experienced in the past, and it is clearer than my own memory.

, and why are you?"

Yu Di opened his mouth and said, "Just think of me as living."

"Ha." Cheng Die sneered, "Alive. What a charming scam."

"Cheng Die, what's going on with you? What happened!"

"Nothing." Cheng Die grinned, "I just want to do something different from the past."

"Don't tell me that you plan to destroy the alkaline melon." Yu Di looked at her.

"I have no intention of destroying the alkaline melon." Cheng Die looked at Yu Di, "It will still happen, but it will have to be next time."

"What's the meaning?"

"You've seen the hundreds of rebirths I've experienced, right? You know, every time I die, I can see the demise of human society. That's why I spare no effort to find a way to save the world."

Here, Cheng Die smiled self-deprecatingly, "After reliving so many times, I probably have a sense of superiority as a 'savior' more than you."

"What do you want to say?"

"I originally wanted to commit suicide." Cheng Die grabbed Yu Di's wrist, with blood in his eyes, "But this time, human society will not perish again, and I will not have another chance. For this world, what will I do?

What is it?"

"You want to restart the world again?"

"Yes. I know I can! In order for the world to continue, I will be reborn again. I will find you again and protect him."

"Blue Dragon, are you gone?"

"Yes." Cheng Die turned his head, not wanting Yu Di to see the sadness in his eyes. "He pretended to be fine, but I know that he was in pain. The underground city is killing all civilians. Such people are not worthy of continuing civilization.

!”

"Cheng Die."

After finally understanding what the mentally ill patient was thinking, Yu Di felt that this was too tricky. She had given the seeds to herself a year ago, which meant that the research and development time was earlier, and it was very likely that all the underground seeds she handled

This alkaline melon is grown in all urban plantations.

If you look at the development of the shelter, you will know that if the underground city wants to do the same thing, the coverage area must be larger than theirs. Even if you plant one step at a time, the old alkali melons will be assimilated by the new alkali melons. Just like back then.

The genetic contamination of seafloor microorganisms that leads to the apocalypse is exactly the same.

But she really couldn't say the words "Sorrow and accept the change".

Cheng Die was reborn 364 times, which meant that she experienced the death of her lover 364 times. This time it was finally over, but Blue Dragon still couldn't survive it.

If you were yourself, you would make a similar decision.

But Yu Di is not Cheng Die. She has her own mission. Perhaps it can be said that she is cold, cruel and inhumane, but the system has clearly stated that she has only one chance. If Cheng Die's wish is granted, the world will still be around.

Regardless of whether he has enough ability to restart, he will face disaster again.

She was afraid, afraid of dying again.

"Cheng Die, no." Yu Di lowered his eyes and said in a hoarse voice.

"You have your position." Cheng Die let go of Yu Di's hand, "I understand. But I have made my own choice."

"We will never meet again." She looked at Cheng Die sadly. As long as Cheng Die's plan succeeds, no matter whether she will be reborn or not, she will never come back to this world.

After a moment of silence, Cheng Die spoke.

"A Class B city has a self-destruct procedure."

"What?" The topic changed a bit quickly, and Yu Di didn't react at once.

"At least, let me take revenge."
