Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

"Okay, that's all I want to say." The monster said in a broken language, "Other things, you go and ask No. 5."

Then, Xu Xin saw that the whole seat was emitting a purple-black light.

Then, the monster that looked extremely uncomfortable leaned back, and immediately disappeared as if it had merged into the seat.

Before disappearing, Xu Xin heard it mutter in that peculiar language: "People on Earth are disgusting..."

And Shi Wanyun, who knelt on the ground with her hands on the ground, didn't know that the monster had left.

She only felt a heat flowing in her body, feeling a little...comfortable?

She hadn't heard the monster's movement for a long time, so she carefully raised her head and glanced over there.

The monster had long since disappeared, and the two eyes on the armrest of the blue-black chair had also been closed.

She suddenly went limp, slumped on the ground, gasping for breath.

The feeling just now was really... too scary.

At this time, the picture in Xu Xin's mind suddenly went dark.

He felt that Shi Wanyun no longer pressed his forehead against him, and also let go of his arm.

He opened his eyes and saw that Shi Wanyun's whole body was soaked, her hair was sticking to her forehead, beads of sweat were rolling down her cheeks, and her eyes were full of exhaustion.

"Let me... rest for a while." Shi Wanyun said softly.

"Okay." Xu Xin nodded.

She looks a little miserable now.

It seems that it was really a bit reluctant just now.

"...I never thought that I would be so afraid of something from the bottom of my heart." Shi Wanyun was silent for a while, then suddenly said.

"You..." Xu Xin wanted to say something, but didn't know how to say it.

In his opinion, this thing will indeed cause some spiritual shocks to people.

Compare that to the kind of...

The feeling of cockroaches, spiders, and mice getting into the clothes along the sleeves and collars.

But for Xu Xin, it was not so much fear as it was more of a physical discomfort, a nausea.

It's good to get used to it.

Like a person who lives in a very clean environment and sees a cockroach for the first time, maybe even screams.

But for a person who lives in an environment that is not so clean and is often touched by cockroaches, cockroaches do not have much impact on him, and he can reach out and grab them casually, crush them to death.

And although he only saw that monster in Shi Wanyun's memory just now, and only saw it for a few minutes, he has basically gotten used to it.

Therefore, he really couldn't understand Shi Wanyun's fear.

What he's thinking now is actually...

Are you that scared?

Of course, he didn't say that.

A little rude.

And he is not immersive, there is still a big gap, the degree of horror is completely different from watching horror movies and experiencing horror events in real life.

"I know what you're thinking." Shi Wanyun's body softened, and she lay down on the sofa, looking at the ceiling wearily, "You must think that I'm making a fuss out of a molehill, or that I'm timid."

"That's not true." Xu Xin shook his head.

"Hehe..." Shi Wanyun laughed helplessly, "I'm really scared. This kind of fear is not the kind of fear of death because the other party is very strong, but a kind of... for the monster itself. A spiritual fear."

Xu Xin did see it.

The monster obviously didn't do anything to her, and even though it disgusted Shi Wanyun's appearance, its overall attitude could even be called polite.

Not even a hint of arrogance.

Moreover, after somehow understanding the monster's self-talk, he even felt that the monster could communicate normally and get along with each other normally.

Hmm... After all, they are advanced intelligent creatures.

"I don't know what's going on, I'm just... scared."

Probably because Shi Wanyun felt that she had already lost all face in front of Xu Xin, she simply threw away the reservedness of the strong in District 1 before, and said to Xu Xin as if confiding.

Her voice was a little choked.

"I originally thought that after injecting this genetic drug and getting rid of its control, I would no longer be so afraid of it, but it turned out...it's still the same..."

She shielded her eyes with one arm.

She questioned whether she was ever out of control.

"... Are you out of control yourself, can't you feel it?" Xu Xin asked.

"I... feel like I've gotten rid of it." Shi Wanyun wiped her eyes with her sleeve and sat up. Her eye sockets were slightly red.

"Didn't you say before that you can't tell me these things, otherwise you will become a monster too?" Xu Xin looked at her and said, "But you are still fine now, doesn't that explain everything?"

"But..." Shi Wanyun sat up, a little hesitant.

"Also, you still feel scared when reminiscing. That's because your ability will also remember the feeling at that time?" Xu Xin continued, "That's how you felt at the time, that's why you feel scared when reminiscing. Feeling scared. Maybe the next time you actually see each other, you won’t be so scared.”

"... Well, what you said... also makes sense."

The shadow that originally covered Shi Wanyun's face gradually dissipated.

She stared blankly at her hands for a few seconds, and finally frowned, looking at Xu Xin: "Thank you."

Xu Xin shook her head: "You're welcome, I'm waiting for you to tell me what's next. What is the capsule that monster gave you?"

"That..." Shi Wanyun thought of something, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she said softly, "I can't show you the next scene."

"Huh?" Xu Xin frowned immediately, "What do you mean?"

"...Let me tell you what happened next. After that..."

"Don't change the subject." Xu Xin interrupted her, "Since you can actually see it, why do you still use the way of telling it? Or is there something you want to hide? What does that pill do?"

"...Listen to me." Shi Wanyun grabbed his arm and looked up at him, "You said something about shedding your skin before, didn't you?"

"Shedding... ah." Xu Xin understood.

"So, don't read it." Shi Wanyun's face turned reddish, "I lost my composure at the time, and after that, I took a long bath..."

Xu Xin shook his head helplessly.

It turned out to be like this.

Indeed, as a woman, she didn't want others to see her skin that was scratched off as soon as she touched it, and she didn't want others to see her appearance in the shower, which was normal.

Thinking of this, Xu Xin couldn't help laughing: "I don't know who just said that as long as I agree, she is willing at any time."

"That...that's different." Shi Wanyun's ears turned red, and her tone became slightly embarrassed, "I don't want you to watch the picture of me taking a shower in front of my face, and I played it for you .”

This is indeed outrageous.

Are all women like this?

So is Wen Xi.

Obviously they have that kind of relationship, but when they wake up in the morning, they insist on not letting themselves see her get dressed.

In other words, I don't know how Wen Xi is doing now.

With that Xu Ying protecting her, she will definitely be fine.

...

In the human territory of the underground world, Li Wenxi was already lying on the bed at this time.

She didn't take off her clothes, but lay down with her clothes on.

Although Xu Ying told her that as long as she didn't stay away from this room, she was safe, but she still felt a little insecure.

It's far from her own tree house or Xu Xin's creature.

"Well... what is Xu Xin doing now?" She looked at the ceiling.

The night in this underground world is not called night at all, the outside is no different from daytime, it can only be called rest time.

"Hey... What the hell did Yingying do? Teleport me back and run away by herself."

Li Wenxi didn't feel sleepy, tossing and turning on the bed, unable to fall asleep.

Finally she sat up and looked out the window: "Go out for a walk? There is no one outside now..."

...

Xu Ying was walking in a small forest at this time.

The trees here are very low, basically no trees taller than five meters, and the number is relatively sparse.

Coupled with the bright light in the underground world, she can basically see everything in the woods.

"The shadow just now, could it really be..."

She looked serious.

If it wasn't for her misreading, then things would be really big.

Her cautiousness during this time has become a joke.

"It can't really be those lackeys..."

The more she thought about it, the more irritable she became.

The whole heart is almost suspended.

"No, no, no... If it is really those people, it would be too strange..." Xu Ying looked around cautiously, while thinking, "If they have discovered this place long ago, why are humans still here?" The following has developed so smoothly up to now?"

After walking a few steps, I didn't find the shadow just now, but saw another small red fruit.

Xu Ying walked over immediately, took one off, wiped it and put it in her mouth.

"Pfft! Pooh! Pooh!"

Bitterness filled her mouth, and she immediately took out a bottle of water and frantically rinsed her mouth again.

"...Polluted fruit!" Xu Ying gritted her teeth, "The soil here is polluted!"

She bent down and grabbed a handful of dirt.

Judging from the color, it feels like normal soil.

Even if Li Wenxi came here and grabbed a handful of soil, she would only get the introduction of [Soil (Green)].

But Xu Ying knew that the soil had changed.

The soil under the ground is really being polluted!

However, it is not the kind of soil that is completely polluted, but a kind of soil that is slightly eroded.

On the surface, the soil here is no different from normal soil, and they are all normal soil color, not the blood red color of the completely polluted soil on the surface.

If you just look at it, you really can't see it.

But the trace elements in it have begun to change.

"[Slightly polluted soil]?" Xu Ying threw away the soil in her hand and stood up.

Slightly polluted soil, the initial state of soil being polluted.

Not only does it look the same as normal soil, but it can also be used to grow crops, fruits, etc.

The crops and fruits produced are non-toxic and edible, but the taste of these things is not flattering at all.

Under the influence of slight pollution, the taste of these edible plants will become extremely weird, and.

Sweet things become very spicy, sour things become very bitter, spicy things become very sour...

There are various variations, but they all have one thing in common...it's unpalatable.

The little red fruit she ate just now tasted very strange.

The little red fruit on the plant she ate with Li Wenxi tasted extremely bitter, several times more bitter than Huoxiang Zhengqi Water and 100% Pure Qiao.

And this time, the little red fruit she ate was indeed sweet and spicy, with an extremely sour smell in it, which made people feel as disgusted as if some mixed swill had been poured into their mouths!

"Why does this kind of thing appear underground!" Xu Ying took another sip of water to relieve the bitterness in her mouth.

She is very familiar with this kind of thing!

When they were still dogs of the alien invaders, they ate this kind of food for the first time!

Although the alien invaders chose them, it is naturally impossible to provide them with food, they can only solve it by themselves.

But at that time, the whole world was polluted, and it was almost impossible to find a piece of clean soil, so they could only use less polluted soil for cultivation.

At that time, everyone was complaining, and this situation lasted for three years, until they found a way to improve the soil and produced special fertilizers, so they used normal soil and planted normal things.

Those three years were the first three years after the war, and all kinds of things that destroyed the three views of human beings happened during this period, shocking the spirits of all survivors, but the unpalatable food really impressed her the most.

At one point, she fainted from hunger due to anorexia.

Now eating this kind of thing again, she thought about that time again.

"elder brother……"

Xu Ying sighed and shook her head.

"Now is not the time to think about this! Something big has happened!"

The underground human base, the last piece of pure land for mankind, will also be infected!

From this point of view, she should have read right just now!

Suo Ran only saw one leg just now, but the style and color of the leg armor that flashed past did make her immediately think of those lackeys.

"The defenders of order...they really came down!"

She looks around.

There must be nothing to be found now.

Let's go back first!

Sister-in-law can't do anything!

Immediately, a purple-black vortex appeared under her feet, she sank, and immediately disappeared in place.

In the grove, calm was restored.

...

Xu Ying and Li Wenxi sat by the bed.

Xu Ying has already told Li Wenxi what she just discovered.

"...If it's really what you said, why didn't they destroy this underground base?" Li Wenxi raised her own question.

"I don't know, but..." Xu Ying frowned, "There are problems here, such as being besieged by mutated beasts. This is a problem that has never existed for more than 900 years."

"Didn't the beast tide of mutated creatures exist a hundred years ago? In other words, this place has really been discovered long ago?" Li Wenxi was surprised.

"This is also what I'm confused about." Xu Ying was puzzled, "If those alien invaders discovered this place a hundred years ago, why are these people still living well after being attacked by the beast horde? "

"Hmm... I can't figure this out, but what's more important to me is..."

Li Wenxi suddenly grabbed Xu Ying's shoulder and stared at her.

"If this place has been discovered long ago, then don't we...don't have to be so careful?"

"Huh? You mean..."

"I mean... I should be able to come and go underground as I like, right? Am I... can I go back?"
