Previously, when they were traveling between several bases, they would more or less meet some people on the way. However, since they started heading north, they had not seen a single person along the way. Not to mention humans, even animals were nowhere to be seen. There were no bugs either. The car drove on an endless road, and the surroundings were very lonely. It was as if there were no other creatures in this world except for the three of them. If it were not for the fact that the three of them were very bold, they would have probably collapsed along the way.
Xia Ju, who had been filled with antic.i.p.ation the entire time, had a gloomy gaze when they reached the Holun Plains. There was no blue sky or white clouds, nor was there an endless prairie. There was only a familiar fog and barren land. Xia Ju looked at everything in front of her in a daze and could not help but get angry. “Liar! It’s not like this in the video at all!”
Looking at Xia Ju’s angry face, Du Yue shook her head helplessly. “The person who uploaded the video didn’t lie to you. It’s just that what you saw was the prairie before the apocalypse. It’s no longer the prairie from before.”
Xia Ju stared at the barren land under her feet and suddenly stomped her foot. “Let’s stay here! I definitely have a way to restore the prairie here to what it looked like in the video!”
If these words had come from someone else’s mouth, Du Yue might have thought that the other party did not know the immensity of heaven and earth. However, since Xia Ju said this, Du Yue did not have any doubts.
They did not have a destination to begin with. Since Xia Ju wanted to stay here, they would stay.
Since they had decided to live here for a period of time, they could not just casually set up a tent. He Xing drove Du Yue and Xia Ju around the prairie for a whole day before finally finding a satisfactory place to stay. The reason why they chose to stay here was simple—there was a small river nearby. The river was very shallow, and the water seemed to have some impurities. However, they did not care about that. They would not drink it. If it was only used to irrigate the prairie, it would be enough. Du Yue took out an RV from her inters.p.a.ce and placed it side by side with the car they were driving. In addition, she used bamboo to make a fence around the two cars in the middle. The s.p.a.ce had become a small courtyard.
An electric fence was set up as well, and it was also connected to the power grid. It would be switched on 24 hours a day. They did not meet anyone along the way, but that did not mean that there was no one living here. To be on the safe side, these necessary things had to be prepared. Everything they needed was in the s.p.a.ce. The three of them worked quickly and set up the small courtyard in less than half a day. When they left the first base, Du Yue had tied the big chicken coop that she had made previously to the roof of the car. Du Yue later put it into her s.p.a.ce, and it was now useful.
These chickens had been in the car with them for so many days, but they did not show any symptoms of discomfort. The four big hens would lay one or two eggs every day. After settling everything, Du Yue put them in the chicken coop. They were obviously happier and walked around the chicken coop with their heads held high. The five chicks followed closely behind the four hens, afraid that they would fall behind. It looked quite interesting. Seeing that they were in good condition, Du Yue placed a food bowl and a water basin for them before turning around and walking toward Xia Ju’s RV.
Although Xia Ju lived alone, Du Yue gave her a bigger RV. Apart from the two front seats, the living room, and the bathroom, there were two other rooms. One was Xia Ju’s bedroom, and the other had been converted into Xia Ju’s laboratory. When Du Yue came over, Xia Ju was cleaning up the laboratory. Du Yue stood beside the car and called out to her. “Do you need me to do anything for you?”
Xia Ju pointed at the small refrigerator in the car. “Just fill it up for me.”
Du Yue nodded. She knew that Xia Ju was going to start her research again. Du Yue silently filled up the refrigerator with Xia Ju and placed some food that could be stored at room temperature in the cabinet next to the refrigerator. Glancing at Xia Ju’s bedroom, Du Yue took out some clothes and placed them on the bed. After everything was ready, Du Yue returned to her and He Xing’s car.
The two of them still stayed in the same car as before, and there was nothing else that needed to be decorated. Du Yue stood in the car and looked around.. She asked He Xing, “Do you need a workshop?”
