Doomsday Super Nanny

Chapter 58
The sun is like fire.

The desertification in this area has become more and more serious, and it is barren as far as the eye can see.

The small figure pulled the rags wrapped around her body. It was a little girl in her teens. Although her face was dirty, she looked rather childish. It hadn't fully grown, but it couldn't hide it. Her pretty face, especially her pair of bright eyes, seems to be able to speak, which is breathtaking.

She couldn't help but sighed, wouldn't she return empty-handed again today?If this continues, you may starve to death before encountering zombies.

One foot deep and one foot shallow, she continued to walk forward a few steps. In a daze, she suddenly saw an oasis in front of her. Although the area was not large, the plants were very lush. Edible ingredients.

Just about to run over ecstatically, she was suddenly picked up in the air.

"Ling! God! God!" An angry voice came, "How many times have I told you, don't leave the residential area, the land here has been more or less polluted, even if you find food, you can't eat it. The most important thing is that zombies may appear at any time—”

The person who was holding her was a boy about her age. He was very handsome, with beautiful facial features, but his strength was obviously not small. He said angrily, while shaking the girl in his hand easily .

Seeing that the other party tended to train for a long time, the girl named Ling Tiantian hurriedly interrupted him: "I was wrong! Brother Li Xi, I won't do it next time, really! But I've been nesting there, and I'm about to grow mushrooms .”

Although it could be heard that the girl had no intention of introspection at all, she still put her down, and her tone softened a little: "I didn't let you stay there, at least tell me when you come out next time."

"Got it!" Ling Tiantian had a bright smile on his face, and pointed to the oasis in front of him, "By the way, Brother Li Xi, look over there, it's an oasis, maybe there are plants that haven't been polluted."

Seeing that she was about to run over without hesitation, Li Xi hurriedly grabbed her: "Wait, let me observe first, maybe it's a mirage." He closed his eyes, quietly feeling the wind blowing by, Some shabby clothes were blown rattlingly, and after a while, he slowly opened his eyes, with uncertain expressions in his amber eyes, "There is indeed a fragrance of plants in the wind..."

Hearing this, Ling Tiantian was extremely excited: "Then what are you waiting for, let's go there."

"Listen to me." Not only did Li Xi not let go of her, but he pulled her back, "But this taste is very similar to that of Xiang Mi Long, and that oasis is most likely a fake oasis for predation. "

Xiangmi Cage is a mutated plant that usually hides underground. In order to hunt for food, it will temporarily take root somewhere, and quickly create a sweet and delicious plant on the ground to attract prey. After capturing the prey, it will It will burrow into the ground again, move quickly, and slowly digest its prey after hiding.

"...Huh?" Ling Tian looked very disappointed, "It's a pity."

Li Xi couldn't help but tapped her head lightly: "What a pity, if I come a little later, you might be preyed on, you should reflect on yourself."

"It hurts." Ling Tiantian cooperatively covered the knocked place, "I know I was wrong." At this moment, she suddenly found that the oasis in front of her had disappeared, "Eh? Brother Li Xi, Xiangmilong is it right? Give up, it seems to be gone."

As soon as the words finished, Li Xi hurriedly glanced over there, was startled, immediately stretched out his hand to pick up Ling Tian and ran in the opposite direction.

"...Brother Li Xi? What's the matter?" Seeing his direction, Ling Tiantian naturally knew what happened, "Could it be—"

"That's right, Xiang Mi Cage has found us!" Li Xi kept an eye on his feet while running. The speed of this kind of plant moving under the ground is very abnormal. If you don't hurry up, you may be caught up. Underground, and it is impossible to see where it is moving at this time, which is really tricky.

With a sound of "Boom--", a huge plant emerged from the ground and stopped in front of them. The plant looked very disgusting, and its body was covered with dark red spots. Its main shape resembled a huge The pouch, that's presumably the stomach it uses to store food.

Li Xi frowned tightly, and put Ling Tiantian on the ground: "Tiantian, stay away."

"Brother Li Xi, this is a mutated plant." Ling Tian hurriedly pulled him back, "Even with powerful weapons, it can't be destroyed, let alone you with bare hands."

"I know, I didn't intend to destroy it either. Anyway, while I'm stopping it, you run away first, and I'll find a way to get away later."

"I disagree, it's too dangerous!"

While the two of them were arguing, Xiang Mi Long seemed to be in great pain, and didn't notice them at all. It just patted the ground with its huge rattan, kicked up pieces of sand and dust, and then slammed around crazily.

……what happened?

Li Xi hurriedly picked up Ling Tian and took a few steps back, but the Xiang Mi Cage struggled violently, his whole body began to darken, and after a while, he fell to the ground without moving, and his body rotted rapidly.

Li Xi slightly opened his eyes.

This appearance is similar to the appearance after being attacked by a person with an elemental spirit. Is there such a person around?

He hurriedly looked around and listened for a while, but found nothing.

"Brother Li Xi, is it dead?" Ling Tian asked curiously.

"Well, he should be dead." After making sure that he was safe, Li Xi put Ling Tiantian down, "Let's go back, we must never leave the residential area again, maybe we won't be so lucky next time."

"I know..." This time, she asked with a bit of introspection in her tone, because Ling Tian felt a little scared just now when Li Xi was going to deal with such a terrifying mutated plant.She walked around the Xiangmi cage and stared at it carefully, always feeling a little strange, "Brother Li Xi, there seems to be something in its stomach."

Li Xi didn't have the heart to look at it, he just wanted to leave this place quickly, and absent-mindedly replied: "It's probably not fully digested food."

"Could it be some unlucky person there?" Ling Tiantian said, "Maybe there is still salvation." And for some reason, she always felt that if she just walked away, she seemed to miss something.

"Stop making trouble, being corroded by such terrible gastric juice, even if you are still alive, you will die from infection in a short time." Li Xi grabbed her hand and said irrefutably, "We are going back."

Ling Tiantian immediately froze in place, pretending to look pitifully at Li Xi: "But, if we rescue that person, wouldn't we give him an extra chance to live?"

Seeing her stubborn appearance, Li Xi knew that if she didn't follow her wish, there would be no peace in the next few days, so he had no choice but to jump onto the nearly rotten Xiangmi cage, and soon found one sticking out. His small hand, but the outer skin of this hand has been severely corroded, but fortunately, at least no bones are exposed.

Li Xi tore off the clothes on his body, wrapped his hands after tearing them apart, and carefully peeled away the necrotic tissues of Xiang Mi Long along the position of the exposed little hand, and picked out a child covered in blood. The child's skin was corroded in many places, but what was strange was that there was no injury at all on his left hand, and he clenched his fist unnaturally.

Ling Tian asked worriedly: "Brother Li Xi, is this child still alive?"

"Well, he's still alive." Although the wound on the outside looks hideous, but the heart is still beating steadily, this child is really lucky, the prey that is usually swallowed by the Xiangmi cage has always been without bones .

Li Xi gently put the poor child on the ground, only then did she realize that there was something tightly squeezed on her left hand, and the thing inside seemed to emit incredible power. Combined with the fact that her left hand was almost uninjured, Li Xi guessed that it was very Maybe it was this thing that saved her life.

"It's a girl." Ling Tiantian squatted down and looked at her carefully, "She is so beautiful, I hope there will be no scars."

"It shouldn't be a problem if we deal with it in time, but we don't have any medicine that can cure her injury." Li Xi's tone seemed a little unhappy, "Are you really planning to take her back? Let me say first, we have already There is no food left to feed irrelevant people."

"I know." Ling Tian turned his head and looked at the boy next to him, "But if we don't save her, won't we be the same as that group of people? I don't want that." She made up her mind from that day on , must not become the same as the group of people on the spaceship.

"Ling Tiantian!" Li Xi said seriously, "Do you know what the situation is now? We are all in danger. It is good to have kindness, but if one kills himself because of overflowing kindness, that is stupid!"

Facing the boy's anger, Ling Tiantian's smile was still bright: "I know, I know all of this, but I don't want to become like the person I hate, as long as it can be done, I will do it."

...It really turned out to be like this again.

Looking at Ling Tiantian with a smile on his face, Li Xi let out a very helpless breath.

This is a very contradictory mood. On the one hand, he very much does not want to continue being so naive every day, but on the other hand, he is attracted by her personality.

Kindness, innocence, and excessive sense of justice are completely unsuitable for this dirty and dark world, and will harm her one day.

"Let's go back."

"Well! Then we take her with us?"

"...Okay, but this is the last time."

"Hmm! I promise!"

"...I don't remember how you promised it several times before." However, he would never let her get hurt in the slightest.
