Chapter 54 - Farmer's Market (Catching Insects)

Editors: Callis, Dragon, playerprophet, Shirubame
The effects of the LED sunflower lamp were amazing but still too eye-catching, so after discussion, they all decided to hide the news temporarily, and instead shared the news about the corn bullets and corn bombs with Company Commander Zhang. Corn was easier to find than peas, and Su Ruizhe could convert more corn bullets to be used by the rescue teams.
Zhan Yun and Su Ruizhe went to see him and informed him that corn could also be weaponized. Sure enough, Company Commander Zhang immediately ordered people to fetch a large bag of corn and asked Su Ruizhe to help weaponize it.
However, once Su Ruizhe transformed around ten maize roots, he became dizzier and dizzier, a sign of excessive power consumption. Weaponizing of maize consumed more power than conversion of peas.
Company Commander Zhang counted nearly a thousand corn bullets that had been converted, and ten corn bombs. He was not greedy, either. He immediately let Su Ruizhe go back to rest. They could use these plant weapons in their action tonight.
Around ten o’clock in the morning, the soldiers set up several big pots and began to cook. They found a lot of flour and potatoes, so this meal was made of shredded potato pancakes. Every survivor received at least one or two plates of three pancakes, which could be considered to be quite good.
Zhan Yun and the others also went to pick up and eat some hot cakes. Although there was no oil or water, the potatoes were fried very well. The crisp and fragrant bread wrapped in crisp and salty potatoes were delicious.
While eating, several people also chatted. Cheng Qi was a very talkative person, and Su Ruizhe learned a lot about his and Zhan Yun's funny childhood antics. Although Zhan Yun was now 1.9 meters tall, and handsome, with eight abdominal muscles and long thighs, he was short and fat when he was young and often bullied. Later, he took a long shot and turned over.
Zhan Yun really wanted to sew up Cheng Qi’s talkative mouth. What a careless friend!
Cheng Jiao, who had been sleeping for a long time, finally opened her eyes.
Cheng Jiao looked very similar to Cheng Qi. They were dragon and phoenix twins. Cheng Qi was born 15 minutes earlier than Cheng Jiao. Cheng Qi’s appearance was the kind that was extremely handsome, and Cheng Jiao was the kind that was extremely beautiful. In any way, siblings were both very outstanding people of that kind.
Cheng Qi’s figure was not much worse than that of Zhan Yun with typical playboy looks, while Cheng Jiao’s 1.75 meters was absolutely tall and stood out among girls. Along with that, she still had a small waist, long wavy hair and beautiful five features. Her eyes seem to be like twinkling stars. She looked like a complete goddess, which made Zheng Jiahe, this otaku unable to stand.
However… It was just an appearance.
“Come on, starving this old woman to death! What’s so fragrant?!” The rudeness of these words shocked people.
Cheng Qi was busy eating, but only a few mouthfuls of the shredded potato pancakes were eaten when Cheng Jiao grabbed it.
“Ah! My cake!” Cheng Qi cried out miserably and rushed to Cheng Jiao. A handsome man and a beautiful woman wrestled together for a pancake and lost all face.
Zhang Yun’s mouth twitched as he explained, “Well, the Cheng family is a military and political family, the siblings grew up in the barracks from an early age… They're a bit rough…"
It’s not just a little rude, it’s just rude, okay?!
When the brother and sister had finished their fight and divided up the poor potato pancake, they finally got serious.
“Brother Zhan!” Cheng Jiao saw Zhan Yun and immediately showed a beautiful smile. She opened her arms and rushed towards him, trying to give him a big hug.
“Ah, Ah, Ah! My wifey is here!” Zhang Yun said while he quickly reached out and stopped her. Hugging once in a while would be okay; he had always been Cheng Jiao’s brother anyway. But now, with his lover around, he couldn't do something that could be so easily misunderstood.
Only then did Cheng Jiao find Su Ruizhe standing beside Zhan Yun, with his eyes wide open, “Wow! Is this your wifey? How lovely!"
She said that she pinched Su Ruizhe’s baby’s fat little face, with an intoxicated face, “Good soft skin, good to pinch, oh.”
Su Ruizhe: …
Zhan Yun’s face sank at once, and he tore her claws off his wife's face. “Go and do it again, and I’ll cut your claws.”
Cheng Jiao pouted her lips, “Why are you so fierce, hm?”
When the unreliable brother and sister group finally stopped playing around, Zhan Yun found the opportunity to ask Cheng Jiao what powers she had awakened.
“Power? What’s that? Can I eat it?” Cheng Jiao asked with a puzzled face.
Before the apocalypse, Zhan Yun called Cheng Qi and Cheng Jiao and told them to find a safe place to hide in A city and buy more food and water. The two obediently found a small apartment, went downstairs to the small supermarket to buy a bunch of food and drink, almost emptied out other people’s shops.
After the outbreak of the apocalypse, both of them were shocked. Even though they were from a military and political family, they had been crawling and rolling in the barracks since childhood. They had done many tasks. It was not the first time that they saw blood. However, the global bloody zombie outbreak was the first time that they had seen so much. They tried to call home, but they didn't know why the cell phone signal disappear. They just stayed inside the house and waited for Zhan Yun to come to them.
But a few days later, they heard a gunshot and thought it was the army. They went out and found that it was the police.
Those policemen had come out to search for materials and help in rescue operations. They had limited manpower and could not carry out a city-wide search and rescue. They could only try to rescue some survivors within their jurisdiction. Knowing that there were weapons in the police station, Cheng Qi and Cheng Jiao decided to go back with them to help the police rescue more people.
Half of the survivors in that police station yesterday were rescued by the siblings but they had never seen an ability user. Those who had been injured before could not escape the fate of being infected, so they could not know the existence of the ability users.
Yesterday, through the information Zhan Yun shared , Cheng Qi already knew that almost all the members of Zhan Yun team were ability users, but Cheng Jiao had just woken up from a coma and was still in the dark.
Zhang Yun had to give her a brief description of what an ability user is and let her try to make sense of the energy in her body.
Cheng Jiao closed her eyes. At the next moment, a cool breeze appeared in the surroundings. Then the wind became stronger and stronger. Finally, she blew away all the clothes of the people and made a noise of pain. Even her face was scrunched with pain.
“The wind! It’s the wind power!” Zheng Jiahe shouted excitedly.
Cheng Jiao also looked at her palm in surprise. She really had a superpower! It’s a pity that she didn’t know how to control that kind of power in her body.
Zheng Jiahe came over and saw her expression. He immediately advised her, “Try to compress your ability and make them wind blades.”
Cheng Jiao tried. She threw a thin blade at the wall and left a striking mark on it.
“Wind attacks can actually be diversified. Using the wind, one can increase their own speed, the wind blade can also be used for slicing, and because it is invisible, the attack will be unexpected.” Zheng Jiahe once again played his own brain hole.
Once this was said, Cheng Jiao looked at Zheng Jiahe in a different way. She didn’t expect the young boy to be quite intelligent.
Cheng Qi looked at her and envied her to death, he also wanted this pulling power ah!
“Let’s have a good rest. We still have a task to do in the evening.”
"Okay."
In the afternoon, Zhan Yun's team slept comfortably, and when night came, they all woke up and began to prepare.
The eleventh and twelfth teams went to the farmer’s market, together with Zhan Yun's team, a total of 88 people, including Cheng Qi and Cheng Jiao. Cheng Qi was also really good, shooting accurately. As long as he was given a gun, killing the zombie was guaranteed. Cheng Jiao’s body was full of power, and her injuries had been treated by the LED sunflower lamp. She was not inferior to Cheng Qi, and she was a very good fighter.
The teams entered the city as usual, using life detectors to search for survivors.
They drove three large military cars, ready to bring back all the vegetables and fruits that were not rotten.
“Thank you very much. I hope we can cooperate happily this time.” Before leaving, Li Ming came to greet them.
Zhang Yun and others were somewhat puzzled, but later they saw the information in the magazine clip they carried with them.
Farmer’s market is not far away, but along the way, there were many zombies. Although they had corn bullets, it would take a lot of effort to clean them up.
But there were few zombies in the farmer's market, probably because the last outbreak occurred at night and the farmer's market closes early in the evening. After searching from one store to another, they really collected a lot of food items. Most of the green leafy vegetables had rotted, but some others, such as winter melons, cucumbers and pumpkins, which were slightly tolerant, were still preserved and fruits were plentiful. In addition, they also collected a lot of flour, glutinous rice, sorghum rice and other grains, which became a very rich harvest.
On their way back, they met another group of zombies. Curious, Zhan Yun took a corn grenade, headed toward Li Ming, and let him use the grenade to see its power.
Unexpectedly, however, the anticipated fragmentation of the zombies did not occur. The zombies were covered with yellow mucus, and their bodies seemed to be paralysed. They could not move at all. Finally, they all had to be shot to death by machine guns. .
It seemed that this corn grenade, and the game’s corn butter, were able to play a suspension effect on the corpse. For a situation that called for escape, this could play a significant role.
The author has something to say:
[Small theatre on the street] (The comments on the street were swallowed up before, but now they are being spat out)
Su Xiaozhe: The new special LED lamp for the end of Su’s life can not only shine and warm, but also heal wounds. It’s a lovely sunflower style. Oh, really don’t want it come out?
Zheng Jiahe: Me! My feet hurt! The Hulk can gain power from the earth.
Song Chengshu: There seems to be something wrong upstairs but give me a light!
Zhang Ge: My ribs hurt. My wife’s hands hurt. Please help us a few more times.
Cheng Jiao: Let go! Let me have this sick man! I haven’t seen the world for a long time!
Cheng Qi:… Originally I wasn;t hurt, but now I have a little liver pain. →_→
Zhan Xiaoyun: Can this flower cure psychological trauma?
Su Xiaozhe: Σ(゜ロ゜😉 Zhan Xiaoyun! What’s wrong with you?
Zhan Xiaoyun: I feel so hurt! It seems that my wifey is going to be a little angel to save the world. I am not his favorite anymore. Listen, that’s my heartbroken voice! Is it broken very well?
Su Xiaozhe: I think you have a brain problem. Sorry, this flower can’t save you!
Zhan Xiaoyun: Never mind. I know a way to cure both symptoms and root causes. As long as I get my wifey's embrace! ＼(￣︶￣)／
Su Xiaozhe: I… My waist aches. I'll first go and use the sunflower!

The potatoes that were fried without water or oil:
Dragon: How?? Without oil? Air fryer?
Jostena: Yea I guess… XD
About the yellow mucus that froze zombies:
Dragon: Have you guys played the game ‘Papa Louie – when pizzas attack?’ It has something similar where the pizza monsters spit out cheese that covers your whole body and sticks you to the ground, unable to move. One more game the author has used.
Callis: interesting… in the PVZ game, i know that the corn catapult launches butter that freezes the zombies for a short amount of time lol
