A cute, timid mushroom mistakenly takes the zombie king for her boyfriend and sticks close to him.

Chapter 198 Mr. Zombie's Changing Face Speed

As a good mushroom, you should teach your children not to waste food. In this post-apocalyptic world, resources are already scarce, and most of the items and food in the space have been wasted. Can we just let this go on?

As the bubbles bubbled up, Meng Xiaoyou directed Pei Sinian, "Attack it!"

The little vine is a magical species. It usually acts cute in front of Meng Xiaoyou, shrinking itself to the size of a little finger. However, it beats up other plants in the space, causing it to grow to a meter long and its body to be covered with red poisonous thorns.

Unlike Meng Xiaoyou, who needed careful nurturing, Pei Sinian was "thick-skinned" and didn't care about the thorns at all. He pinched the little vine and threw Little Red Riding Hood on the ground. Just as he was about to give the child a good beating, he heard Meng Xiaoyou, who was tidying up the space, nagging: "Tell it where it went wrong, and remember not to hit it too hard."

Hitting a child...without hurting them?

Pei Sinian paused, suddenly realizing that things were getting tricky. How could he hit the target without causing pain?

Mushroom had no idea how difficult the task she had assigned was. The new green member above her was squatting down, carefully examining the bubble space.

Several of her clothes were ruined and unwearable. She had no needle and thread and no sewing skills, so she could only reluctantly take them out of her storage space and throw them away.

Some rice can be picked up and put in a bag, since it will be washed before cooking anyway, and the space isn't dirty. But we can't eat the noodles. No, no, we'll save them for the little vines to twist and eat.

I didn't collect any vegetables in the apocalypse, but I did find a few bags of seeds in my space, like cabbage and tomatoes... Xiao Dongxi said she was going to plant them in the manor, so they must have been left in her space back then.

Meng Xiaoyou shook the bag, making a rustling sound, thinking that she could plant plants when the weather got warmer... However, for some reason, she felt an inexplicable urge when she saw the seeds.

She had this impulse when she was in fifth grade, and then again when she stole the spider plant from the Su family's house...

Mentioning spider plants, Meng Xiaoyou rolled her eyes upwards and lifted her eyelids to see a lush green expanse overhead.

A slender hand reached out and took the green plant off her head, holding it in its hand for her to observe.

Meng Xiaoyou glanced at him twice: "Where's the child?"

"On the ground."

She looked down and saw that the little vine had been frozen into an icicle by Pei Sinian, a veritable icicle. Knowing it had caused trouble, it quieted down and didn't dare to move, afraid that Meng Xiaoyou would abandon it if it wasn't careful.

Seeing that it wouldn't freeze to death anytime soon, Meng Xiaoyou looked away and used her slender white fingers to nudge the thing in Pei Sinian's hand.

Two lush green spider plants shivered in the cold wind, their slender leaves curling up to brush against Meng Xiaoyou's fingers in a seemingly ingratiating manner.

"Shhhhhh!"

"Shhhhhh!"

Its call was different from that of the little vine, and it was like a twin that sensed each other, with pronunciations that were exactly the same.

Meng Xiaoyou could tell they were complaining, accusing the little vines of bullying the grass.

"Grass?" Meng Xiaoyou blinked her large, clear eyes and asked in confusion, "Aren't you spider plants?"

"call out!"

"call out!"

They said no.

They were originally roadside foxtail grass, but because of the apocalypse, they were irrigated with blood and rotting zombies, and then they mutated.

Finally, the Su family's aunt found it by the base wall and cultivated it as a spider plant.

The post-apocalyptic world was too oppressive and lacked vitality, so my aunt thought about growing some things. Anyway, plants are easy to grow; all you need to do is water them and let them get some sun.

This also resulted in the two mutated plants only absorbing the zombie crystal cores, and although they were only beginning to develop intelligence, they were not as powerful as the small vines.

They are just thinking plants that can be crushed to death by humans at any time.

No one could hear them speak, nor could they sense their life signs, until Meng Xiaoyou took the two foxtail grasses away. The moment they touched them, they instinctively wanted to get close to Meng Xiaoyou.

Unfortunately, before they could have much contact, Meng Xiaoyou stuffed them into her space, where they encountered a vine tyrant who was very domineering and wanted to beat them up.

What followed was a scene of grass fleeing and vines chasing, neither of them able to escape.

Upon hearing the origin of the two plants, Meng Xiaoyou sighed softly, "The child is so naive; you two have suffered so much."

"Hey~"

"Hey~"

Two foxtail grasses swayed in Pei Sinian's palm, then the man expressionlessly pinched them in his hand and casually tossed them to the roadside.

"Now that you've finished catching up, find somewhere to work on your own and don't bother us."

Pei Sinian was afraid that if they continued talking, he would have two more children. Unfortunately, those two weeds were like chewing gum; they would come back as soon as he let go, hanging on Meng Xiaoyou's hair on the left and right, making a swishing sound.

Mr. Zombie's face darkened. "What do they want now?"

This family cannot have any more members!

Meng Xiaoyou didn't understand why he was unhappy. She touched the grass on her head and said, "They said that I seem to be able to help them grow and that they want to follow me. My superpower seems to be able to catalyze plants."

"No way." Mr. Zombie objected coldly, "They're not even good enough to be eaten, what's the point of keeping them?"

He kicked the popsicle under his feet.

The popsicle understood and immediately rolled around, chirping, "Chirp chirp!"

Pei Sinian: "You see, we always have to consider the second son's thoughts."

"Chirp~"

Pei Sinian: "If you can't treat two bowls of water equally, and you add two more bowls, it will be difficult to spare the attention to take care of each child's feelings."

"Tweet-"

The two non-human beings, father and son, talked back and forth, and Meng Xiaoyou was troubled for a long time before finally being persuaded.

"Ok."

The two plants immediately became anxious.

"call out!"

"call out!"

Meng Xiaoyou hesitated, "You mean, you can empathize and exchange messages?"

The foxtail grass nodded pitifully, begging to be taken in.

"But... even if you can let me pass on messages to him when we're apart, I have to consider his feelings..."

Before Meng Xiaoyou could finish speaking, she felt a lightness on her head as Pei Sinian picked up a blade of grass and casually placed it on his shoulder.

"Let's not talk about that now, you continue tidying up the space."

Meng Xiaoyou: "???"

Pei Sinian stuffed the blade of grass from her head into her spatial bubble. "This is for you. I'll keep the other one. If I'm not around, you can contact me using Little Tail."

Meng Xiaoyou's ahoge (cowlick) stood up like a question mark. Wait, who is Xiaowei?

Pei Sinian patted the bag on his shoulder. "I'll prepare a bag for the puppy so it can stay in it from now on."

"..."

The little vine lying flat on the ground: "..." Dad, love can disappear, right?

Meng Xiaoyou couldn't figure out Pei Sinian's thoughts. She tidied up the space for no reason and found the gift she had prepared for the female zombie before, a set of cosmetics. She hadn't had time to give it to her before, and now the small vines had broken the bottle, and the liquid inside had spilled out. She wiped it clean with a tissue with a headache. "I'll find another set for the female zombie later."

Pei Sinian didn't sit still; he helped her hold the bubbles and let her clean them up, then suddenly realized a problem: "Give it to a female zombie?"

"Uh-huh."

"You picked out a cat-ear headband for Tang Shengnan and skincare products for the female zombie?"

"Yes."

Pei Sinian pursed his thin lips, his voice tense: "Whose gift is this?"
