Return to the End of the World: Resurrection of Spiritual Energy

Chapter 3
Tang Lingyun's home is in a small southern city more than 1000 kilometers away from this city.

There are no direct trains and flying cars,

Tang Lingyun needs to take a two-hour flight to their provincial capital and then,

Another four hours drive to home.

Fortunately, there is a direct bus station from the province in the small county, and Tang Lingyun can also be there, so I can rush home tonight.

Sitting on the plane, looking at the gradually shrinking city below, Tang Lingyun's mood was really complicated.

Choosing to go home is not a difficult thing for Tang Lingyun,

But I can't help but say sorry.

After all, the last five years are close to six years, and Tang Lingyun has lived here for more than four years.

Everything she knows, opportunities, resources, and opportunities are all here.

Leaving here, Tang Lingyun's memories of struggling to survive in the last five years of the last five years will be even less useful.

However, in order to reunite with her family who had been waiting for her for five years,
Tang Lingyun would rather give up these!
Whether by chance or by chance,
After living in the end of the world for five years, Tang Lingyun didn't think that she would be able to get it if she came back again. Those things she just heard about.

Now Tang Lingyun is very sensible,
The only thing she thinks about is to be with her family and live a slightly better life in the difficult last days than in the previous life.

future world,
It is a world where ordinary people have to be tested to survive!
Tang Lingyun's hometown town is an agricultural city.
It is located on a small plain, not to mention high mountains around, and even a small slope, it takes half a day to reach it.

There is a big river next to the small town,
Except for some woods by the river, there are patches of fields around the small town.

Occasionally see rows of trees,

Those are man-made or natural ditches, which used to be the water conservancy facilities that irrigated these fields.

It's just that life has become more convenient over the years,
Watering has been replaced by various sluices, huge water pipes buried deep underground, and each piece has a sluice.

In this way, water is also convenient, and collective irrigation and collective planting are no longer needed.

When the bus passed by, Tang Lingyun saw the scenery passing by outside the window,

You can also occasionally see rows of houses that are looming in the fields.

That is, the farmers who planted these fields.

And Tang Lingyun's grandmother's house is also among them.

When the end of the world came and the world changed dramatically,
When Tang Lingyun was struggling to survive and couldn't contact her family, she wasn't particularly worried!

The reason is that her hometown, before the end of the world, had an inconspicuous environment.

All things in the world are generally giantized, and there are accidental evolutions, and they are even blessed with the ability to wake up the spirit.

All over the world, it has become very dangerous,
After going through the crisis in the early days of the last days, human beings quickly summed up some laws of changes in the world.

Among them, the places that have the greatest impact on the places where human beings live are plants and animals.

In plants, some short-term growth, the changes of plants are mostly gigantic,

Being able to evolve depends on luck, and being able to awaken the spirit is basically rare.

Seasonal plants like food,

The basic changes are giantization, and not all the food after giantization can be eaten.

The changes of everything in the world seem to highlight some of their own characteristics,
When these characteristics are magnified, it is naturally not something that humans can bear.

Just like the most common sweet potato before the end of the world,
It itself has a laxative effect.

After the end of the world, these sweet potatoes will not only become gigantic, but the effect of laxative will also become gigantic.

In the early days of the end of the world, when Tang Lingyun was trapped in the city, she went to the market and bought a sweet potato at a low price.

The variety is pre-apocalyptic, soft and sweet, long and thin, and is most suitable for boiled or roasted sweet potatoes.

After the end of the world, this kind of sweet potato is as long as an arm.

The juice that comes out of the sweet cut skin is sticky, but the taste is very rough.

Eating it raw can get your teeth stuck, and cooking it is like eating sawdust.

The key is not to eat too much. Eating a little bit more can make people dehydrated.

The only thing that attracts people is its sweet taste.

In the early days of the end of the world, productivity has plummeted, and salt and sugar, which were once readily available, once became controlled special items.

Ordinary common people, who want to eat something salty and sweet, mostly buy this kind of plant after the end of the world and eat it.

Giant plants are still less dangerous.
Although most taste bad, many are not suitable for human consumption.

But there are also a small part, which is more suitable for human consumption,

Coupled with the new evolved species discovered after the end of the world,
Like Tang Lingyun's hometown, the most common small city before the end of the world, the safety has been greatly increased.

In the early days of the end,
To have a safe living environment and barely fill their stomachs is already the greatest pursuit of countless grassroots people.

Three years after the end of the world, some less dangerous villages were also activated.

Their country supports everyone to go out,
After three full years of 'growth', the land has increased by a large area,

Many planting areas that are not very dangerous in the first place can apply directly to the government department.

Mother Tang's natal family is in the countryside around the city.

When the policy was implemented, Tang's father and mother immediately rushed back to her natal home to discuss with her family.

Then, on the side of her natal family, she applied for enough land.

But Tang Lingyun hadn't come back at that time.

After barely restoring communication,
Tang Lingyun got in touch with her family, originally to persuade them not to travel between the city and the plantation.

this era,

No one can tell that the originally safe road may suddenly become extremely dangerous overnight.

The miraculous evolution of Xingling must not be regarded as ordinary!
But the Tang family was unwilling!

The post-apocalyptic world has changed too much,
Originally, it was half an hour's drive from their small county town to their hometown,

After the end of the world, it may only take two or three hours to go smoothly. When it is not smooth, it takes half a day to walk.

Awakening is rare, but evolution is full of uncertainties.

Whether it is after returning home,

It was Tang Lingyun who had heard a lot when living alone in the city. After the evolution of everything in the world, it was suddenly full of aggression.

Just like Tang Lingyun's hometown, a nearby county,
Four years after the end of the world, a large swarm of evolved wasps suddenly flew out.

only half a day,
Half of the people in the entire county have been poisoned by wasps.
By the time the nearby rescuers arrived, none of the poisoned people survived.

Five years after Tang Lingyun's last days, when she returned home,
The counties over there are still accepting the relocation of the population from the surrounding counties.

It's a pity that by the end of the five years, land has become one of the easiest resources to obtain.

The area of ​​the county is not bad,
The Tang family was one of the early families who moved to the county. Others bought commercial housing later, while the Tang family bought land and built it themselves.

Her home is half an hour's walk from the new county bus station.

Out of the long-distance bus station,

Tang Lingyun casually hails a caravan waiting for customers at the gate of the station.

Move your luggage to one side and sit on the other side by yourself.

"Where are you going, little sister?" The master asked while letting go of the brake.

"The second house on Youqian Street!" Tang Lingyun replied while stretching her head to see the changes around her.

She has not returned to her hometown for two years,
It's not that she doesn't miss home, but that her mother is a big city lover.

Since Tang Lingyun started taking part-time jobs online in her sophomore year,

Mama Tang seemed certain that her precious daughter would be able to live well in the big city.

Every winter and summer vacation,

Mother Tang was either alone, or she took her family to find her daughter.

Mama Tang is not the kind of mother who only burdens the mother of her children.
During the summer vacation of Tang Lingyun's junior year, she asked her son to toss around the Internet to help find a house and a job.

Tang Lingyun hasn't had a holiday yet, she has already settled herself down.

When Tang Lingyun is on vacation,

Mama Tang directly took her daughter to rent a room, so that her daughter could feel at ease during the summer vacation, and don't forget to work part-time.

Even my son was called to work part-time for a month, not to mention other things, the travel expenses must have been earned back.

As for Tang's father...

The Tang family opened a grain and oil store in this small county town.

The main business is wholesale, and the furthest supplier is the provincial capital.

Usually this shop is run by a husband and wife.

In the past two years, Tang's mother traveled to big cities for several months a year, and Tang's father was busy, so he wanted to call his own brother to help.

The street from the new bus station is near the bustling area of ​​the county,

The development of the county seat is relatively slow. Tang Lingyun didn't see much change along the way.

Also, although the bus station here is new, it has been around for nearly ten years.

The buildings around here have been filled up many years ago,
Possible changes, that is, a certain store is closed and another one is reopened, or which shopping mall is renovated.

Half an hour's journey takes about ten minutes by van.
Tang Lingyun was also in a daze when she was holding her luggage and standing at the door of the store opened by the four doors of her house.

When Tang Lingyun returned home five years after the end of the world, the three-and-a-half-story building looked extremely dilapidated.

The buildings next to each other in the front, back, left, and right sides of the small building,
The furthest distance is already four houses away, and the closest distance is half a house away.

nowadays,
Her house is next to her neighbors on the left and right, and there is only one car in the front and back.

This is the road specially set aside when building the house.
It's just that small cars were not popular at that time, and tricycles were rare.

The originally reserved enough spacious space is now extremely crowded.
