Chapter 288 Miasma
Qiao He took Su Tang to his temporary residence. It was a gathering place for wanderers. It was originally a prosperous metropolis, but now it has been turned into ruins, and the people who wandered here have no relationship with each other.
There is no communication. In their view, other wanderers are just strangers who compete with themselves for food and will be exposed in the wilderness at some point.
Su Tang actually felt a lot more relaxed because of this cool atmosphere. Rather than tense up and face the residents who were wary of her, she would rather they treat her like air.
However, it will not be so easy to obtain information. After all, the more people gather in places, the easier it is to obtain more reliable information. This is why many novels and movies always talk about asking for information.
The reason for the emergence of places like bars.
Looking at Qiao He leading the way, Su Tang fell into deep thought. She didn't know how much this little brother knew about the information she wanted, but it didn't matter if it wasn't too little, because her current goal was to go to the nearest human settlement here.
But before that, she still had a question to ask Qiao He.
"By the way, Qiao He, do you know Xiang Zhao?"
Hearing Su Tang's question, Qiao He showed a clear expression. He was not too surprised, nor did he show disgust or happiness. He just said very calmly: "You are talking about the man who died three years ago."
A traitor to humanity?"
Su Tang became interested and looked at Qiao He with raised eyebrows, "Died three years ago? Are you sure?"
"If you mean whether I saw his body, then I really didn't." As he continued to lead the way, Qiao He played with the withered grass along the road in a bored way, and continued: "But it's okay.
To be sure, at least that’s what everyone said, that he was dead. And I really didn’t hear any news about Xiang Zhao after that.”
Qiao He turned back to look at Su Tang, "Why do you ask this? Did a wanderer tell you about him before?"
Su Tang shook his head, "I just have that name vaguely in my head, and I'm a little concerned about it."
"Eh." She let out a sigh that was neither salty nor bland, and she felt a sense of distrust just by listening to the tone. But from Su Tang's understanding of Qiao He, she understood that the little brother in front of her really didn't believe in her, he just
He simply can't speak.
So as expected, Qiao He then said in an indifferent tone, "Anyway, he is already very famous. It has only been three years since that incident. It is natural for you to have an influence. Besides."
He paused and recalled that Su Tang had said 'Brother Xiang' was a nickname for someone who didn't know who he was when they first met, "And I remember that you seem to have a family member named Xiang, or a close family member."
Human beings, although the surname Xiang is not that rare, now that mankind has been almost destroyed, it is probably quite rare."
He said with emotion, "If someone close to you has the same surname as a guy like that, you must be deeply impressed."
"Really." Su Tang took a few steps to catch up with Qiao He, "But speaking of it, although I know about the supernatural being who turned into a zombie three years ago, why do I feel like there is not a single zombie around here?"
After talking about this topic, Qiao He suddenly remembered this matter as if he had woken up from a dream, "Well, all the zombies seem to be concentrated in an abandoned base now. I remember that place was originally called Suzaku. Although
There are also many people who have been curious about what's going on, but they really don't dare to go in. Not only are all the zombies gathered there, but there are more reasons. The miasma there is too serious."
He sighed, "I was lucky enough to see the scene there from the outside. It was completely hell. There was no grass growing at all. It was so terrifying."
Su Tang noticed an important word, "miasma?"
"By the way, you have lost your memory, so you probably don't know about this thing." Sighing, Qiao He shook his head and said, "It was also something that suddenly erupted three years ago. Now it is said that almost the entire earth has been covered by miasma.
Already."
Su Tang looked around. The clear moonlight illuminated the plain not far away. The dreamlike appearance was beautiful and very peaceful.
"But when I look at it, why doesn't it look like there's miasma here?"
After a pause, Qiao He said in a somewhat hesitant tone, "I don't know about this, but there is indeed a miasma, and the evidence is the decline of these forests." He pointed to the dark side showing a decadent state.
Forest, "originally, this place should be more vibrant and green. It's a bit ironic to say that although we humans claim to be the spirits of all things, when the disaster of human extinction ushered in, many animals and plants became more full of life.
.”
Su Tang listened quietly to Qiao He's words.
"It would be fine if we were just dismissed like this, but since the miasma that doesn't know its principle and is invisible to the naked eye appeared, everything has changed. Originally, only mammals were affected by the virus on this planet, but then the miasma appeared.
Afterwards, all the plants, centered on the Suzaku where zombies gathered, began to gradually decline."
Qiao He looked at the dry plants, "Even without some animals, life on this planet can still tenaciously support it. But once there are no plants, everything is over. Now these plants can still struggle hard because it is so far away from Suzaku."
It’s quite far.”
Su Tang was really very interested in the miasma mentioned by Qiao He, but he was embarrassed to show it too obviously. Besides, looking at Qiao He's appearance, he probably didn't know much about the specific information.
But one thing made her a little concerned, "Then what effect will this miasma have on people with superpowers like me? In other words, it is actually this so-called miasma that causes people with superpowers to go berserk and turn into zombies."
"I really don't know about this." Shaking his head honestly, Qiao He looked at her without any suspicion, "Su Tang, you are a superpower yourself, don't you feel anything?"
Su Tang didn't feel anything at all. Instead, he felt that his condition was unprecedentedly good.
So she just answered honestly, "I'm hungry."
"Then it should be okay." He nodded and turned his head away, "When you get to my habitat, I will let you have a good meal."
"Really!" Su Tang's eyes lit up when she heard about the food. Although she thought it should be some canned food, it didn't matter. She would just show off her skills in canned food.
