Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies novel Chapter 121

"Mom, where did you get these spring onions?" Bai Meiyue took a seat in the aisle of the kitchen when she noticed a bunch of fresh green onions sitting on the side of the gas stove. They were so fresh and dewy that it looked like they were just plucked. _{freewebnoveℓ.com}

In this weather, in these conditions, how could her mother get her hands on these fresh green onions? Even if their refrigerator was good, it wasn’t that good.

Her eyes flickered and she turned to look at her mother, who ladled out the hot noodles and placed them in an ice bowl.

"Didn’t you ask me to grow vegetables?" Mother Bai turned to look at Bai Meiyue with a confused look on her face. "It will take some time for the greenhouse to be ready but I thought I could still grow some little things. So, I took some soil and poured it into a small bucket."

"And guess what! I was able to grow vegetables in it. You don’t know it, Yueyue. I only planted the seeds last night and the green onions grew by the morning. Do you think that the soil you got is special or did it get mutated? How come the seeds are growing so fast?"

Bai Meiyue felt her lips twitch when she heard the words of her mother. Special mutated soil? Though the soil would indeed get mutated, it wouldn’t be a good thing. The plants that were growing outside would soon turn into flesh-eating monsters and would eat anything and everything because of the blood rain.

How could there be such a good thing as plants growing at a rapid pace? This was a punishment from the heavens to the humans for not paying attention to the warning signs.

So why would the mutated soil help the humans?

The reason these spring onions grew so well and quickly it must be because her mother awakened the wood-type supernatural abilities. In the post-apocalyptic world, wood-type supernatural beings were not rare. They were responsible for growing vegetables and fruits in the base and they only specialised in increasing the production of food.

Though her mother didn’t have much defensive ability, this was good as well. At least for the time being, they didn’t have to worry about starving to death. With her mother helping in growing the vegetables, Bai Meiyue no longer had to worry about searching for vegetables the next time she went to look for supplies.

And even if they couldn’t leave the house for several days with her space and her mother’s abilities, Bai Meiyue didn’t need to worry about going hungry. Her mother’s abilities seemed better than the rest of the wood-type supernatural beings. Since that was the case, then her mother would certainly produce a good amount of vegetables.

Vegetables and fruits were quite rare in the apocalyptic world; if they had a surplus, then they could exchange them for crystal nuclei! It was a good plan.

"Maybe it’s because you awakened as well, Mom?" Bai Meiyue tried to point her mother in the right direction. Even though she knew that her mother might not accept it yet, she still tried to prepare her mother.

Sure enough, her mother jumped a little and then looked at Bai Meiyue with a smile on her face.
