Wasteland Farming, Manual for Raising Human Cubs

Chapter 253 Only Each Other
Zhao Xiaoxiu still didn't say anything, and the people outside the tent suddenly stopped asking questions, and the atmosphere became eerily quiet.

Suddenly, the dark shadow cast by the fire on the tent moved, and then "bang!" A gunshot rang out, and the middle-aged man fired two shots directly into the tent.

Zhao Xiaoxiu and Monkey Sister narrowly escaped the danger. With a determined heart, they immediately summoned Peter Pan to release a magnetic field to control the three of them.

The sudden feeling of weightlessness scared the three of them. They found themselves floating. Realizing that they might be attacked by some mutant species, they anxiously took out their weapons and fired wildly in all directions.

Unfortunately, the bullet was blocked by a mysterious force less than three meters away and floated in the air.

When the gunfire stopped, Zhao Xiaoxiu and Monkey Sister rushed out of the tent at the same time.

The three of them only saw a black shadow rushing out of the tent, and the hair on its body could barely be seen to be brown under the dim light of the fire.

Immediately behind the monster, a child rushed out.

and many more!

Child?

Where did this child come from in such a remote place?
The three people were stunned by the combination of a monkey and a child who looked about four years old. They were a little confused as to what was going on.

Sister Monkey took the initiative and pulled the three people down from the air one by one and smashed them hard onto the rocks!
After a few screams, one person died on the spot, his body lying on the ground in a strange posture.

One of them broke free from the magnetic field control and tried to shoot, but was knocked away by Sister Monkey and his throat was bitten off. He didn't even have time to raise his hand before the pistol fell to the ground and he died with his eyes open.

In just half a minute, his companions died one after another. The only one who survived thought that these were not monkeys and children at all.
This must be an advanced mutant that can transform into the appearance of a child!

The fear of the unknown made him lose all desire to fight. He picked up the weapon that fell on the ground and ran away.

Zhao Xiaoxiu raised the gun, aimed at the man's back, and pulled the trigger with a "bang".

Before she was four years old, she had never had the opportunity to point a gun at her peers, and she was so nervous that she missed the target with her first shot.

The man thought he was going to die, but he didn't expect the bullet to hit the rock in front of him. His heart tightened, and instead of feeling fortunate, he felt that this was a countdown to his death.

He urgently activated his speed evolution ability and rushed to a distance of twenty meters in a blink of an eye.

But the next second, Peter Pan deployed the magnetic field again, and the man floated uncontrollably, panicking and shouting for help.

At the same time, Zhao Xiaoxiu took a deep breath, raised the gun and aimed again, and pulled the trigger steadily with her little hand.

Peter Pan released the suspension magnetic field at the right time, and the man fell from mid-air defenselessly. Just as he was about to stand firm, another gunshot was heard!
He seemed to have been hit hard all of a sudden, and his body fell forward violently.

Zhao Xiaoxiu fired another shot, and this time he finally killed the man.

Sister Monkey strode over, carried the body back and threw it in front of Zhao Xiaoxiu.

This was a strange face that Zhao Xiaoxiu had never seen before. The man was shot in the abdomen and heart, but his death was not tragic.

But those wide-open eyes still made Zhao Xiaoxiu feel uncomfortable.

She put down the gun and found that because she was too nervous, her arm muscles were too tense. Suddenly, they relaxed and her hands felt swollen and numb, just like her now dull brain. She had no idea what she was doing.

She instinctively gasped for breath, blinking her eyes constantly, immersed in the feeling of killing someone for the first time.

It seemed like a long time had passed, yet it also seemed like only a short moment. Zhao Xiaoxiu's wildly beating heart finally calmed down.

She said, "Sister Monkey, smash the heads of the bodies and throw them at the foot of the mountain behind us." Then she squatted down and searched out all the belongings from the three people and moved them to her tent.

After going through the whole process, Zhao Xiaoxiu herself felt that she was terrifyingly calm.

Of course, she and Sister Monkey had done this before, but the corpse she touched back then was not one she had killed with her own hands.

Sister Monkey was very efficient and she ran back after dealing with the three bodies in no time.

Knowing that Zhao Xiaoxiu loved cleanliness, he took a shower in the lake and cleaned himself up before going into the tent.

A lot of things were found on the three people, including a few ordinary nutrient solutions, some miscellaneous small packets of seasonings, drinking water and weapons.

Most hunters nowadays are equipped with two kinds of weapons, one is a firearm, which is used to deal with mutant animals and humans.

One is a cold weapon, which is convenient for dealing with mutated plants and serves as a supplement for insufficient firepower.

The three of them had almost used up all the bullets, and Zhao Xiaoxiu only collected 15 rifle bullets.

So only one spear was kept among the guns, and only one short knife was kept among the cold weapons, and the rest were thrown into the lake. Anyway, they must not be given to others.

After recovering from the tension of his first murder, Zhao Xiaoxiu secretly reviewed the battle.

It was lucky that they encountered these three poorly equipped guys. If they had faced a intensive machine gun fire in the first round, Zhao Xiaoxiu felt that he and Sister Monkey might have turned into a beehive.

"Monkey Sister." Seeing Monkey Sister coming in, Zhao Xiaoxiu said to her seriously, "Next time we encounter a situation like today, we must take the initiative and seize the initiative."

Sister Monkey used to only fight, how could she know about preemptive tactics? She was obviously stunned and didn't quite understand.

Zhao Xiaoxiu still had high expectations for Monkey Sister's IQ, so he immediately picked up six wild fruits and placed them on the ground, leading Monkey Sister to review the situation, repeatedly deducing the best response plan step by step.

Maybe it was because it was her first time killing someone and she was too excited. Zhao Xiaoxiu didn't feel sleepy at all in the middle of the night. She became more and more excited as she talked, and her little mouth kept talking.

Sister Monkey listened attentively at first, but then she started to feel dizzy. She only knew that the cub was saying something very impressive, but she had no memory of what it was exactly.

But there is one thing that Sister Monkey remembered - from now on, they can only rely on each other!
The fire in front of the tent burned out. It was a starless and moonless night, and the tent was plunged into pitch darkness.

Zhao Xiaoxiu finally got tired and fell into Sister Monkey's arms, falling into a deep sleep. One of her little hands was holding a fruit, and the other was tightly holding a gun.

The baby and the monkey leaned on each other and slept until dawn.

Zhao Xiaoxiu opened the tent with great anticipation, ran to a high place near the lake and looked down the mountain, but did not see the person she wanted to see.

Sister Monkey followed and ran even further ahead of Zhao Xiaoxiu. They were almost down the mountain. She hung on the treetop and kept looking around until the afternoon. Then she ran back with an angry look on her face and shook her head at Zhao Xiaoxiu, indicating that she had not seen any trace of Xiwa.

"Wait one more day." Zhao Xiaoxiu packed her luggage.

She was wearing an adult short-sleeved T-shirt that had been taken off a dead person, and part of the loose clothing was dragging on the ground.

The three men yesterday also provided a backpack. Zhao Xiaoxiu put all the collected supplies and wild fruits into the backpack, and filled the Peter Pan's fully charged solar automatic shower device with water.

As for the tent behind him, Zhao Xiaoxiu also planned to pack it up and take it away. Anyway, he had a hovercraft and could carry a lot of things.

Everything was ready, Zhao Xiaoxiu sat quietly by the lake waiting.
