I traveled through time, this is unscientific

Chapter 204 Sour Fruit

204

Qin Tao is a competent captain. He divided the existing people into three parts.

Some of them are surviving scientific researchers.

This group of people are still staying in the temporary camp where tents are set up, continuing to pack and organize their scientific research materials and carry out their scientific research.

In a word, scientific research cannot stop.

This is what academics do, they focus on one thing and don't get distracted.

Moreover, they eat public food and are very dedicated.

Then Qin Tao led the remaining security personnel, using the only remaining life detector and metal detector in their hands, and based on the approximate direction of the village and the previous campsite in their memory, they set out to look for the lost people and supplies.

The other one was Zhou Xiaozhou, who followed a few lightly injured security teammates and brought a few orphans from Lai'an Village out to collect edible food.

In Zhou Xiaozhou's opinion, finding food is actually the most important thing to do now.

After all, survival is the biggest problem.

Wu Sanmei brought Zhao Xiaoer and Zhang Gouer to follow Zhou Xiaozhou.

The little girl had a solemn expression, with sadness and strength on her face.

In fact, Zhou Xiaozhou never dared to ask her about Xiaobaoer's news, and whether her grandfather, father, and mother were still alive.

In fact, you can guess the general idea without asking.

I followed the team members over a large bare earth hill.

The earth-shaking event three days ago was truly earth-shaking. I don't know how it happened, it was as if a mountain was turned upside down.

After crossing the upside-down hill and walking a little further away from where they live now, there are still large areas of green.

This is one of the things that Zhou Xiaozhou found very awkward.

It seems as if there really is a god who specially selected the gourd-shaped terrain of Lai'an Village and filled up the entire area.

Except for this circle of area, everything outside is fine.

Zhou Xiaozhou thought to himself, what a remarkable setting this is?

"Sister Zhou, let's pick this fruit today." Wu Sanmei said as she handed a green fruit in her hand to Zhou Xiaozhou.

Zhou Xiaozhou looked at the others and saw that they had already started picking the fruits.

But she still expressed her doubts: "Can this be eaten?"

"Yes." The person who answered her was a team member with his arm in a sling.

The man kept working while explaining to Zhou Xiaozhou, "We found this thing two days ago and asked Sister Wang to test it. It's not poisonous."

Zhou Xiaozhou knew that the Sister Wang he was talking about was the plant researcher Wang Ting, who was still in the camp, devoting herself to her academic field.

Just now when Qin Tao and the others left, Wang Ting was still giving suggestions, asking Qin Tao to quickly retrieve her several pieces of equipment.

"It's good that it's not poisonous." Zhou Xiaozhou picked up the fruit, wiped it casually and put it into his mouth.

After a "crunch" sound, Zhou Xiaozhou frowned. Just because something is edible doesn't mean it tastes good. This fruit is incredibly sour.

Just as Zhou Xiaozhou was about to spit it out, he heard a few more chuckles in his ears.

Seeing that the people around her looked as if they were used to it, she swallowed the fruit obediently.

Food is in short supply now. It’s good enough to have something to eat. What else is there to be picky about?

Zhou Xiaozhou finally understood the old Wu a little.

Everyone moved quickly. There were not many fruits in this small forest, and they were all picked in a short time.

Everyone got up and walked back.

But Zhou Xiaozhou still wanted to go a little further.

"Are we going back now?" Zhou Xiaozhou called out to everyone, "I want to go over there."

Zhou Xiaozhou pointed to a small hill not far away.

"Let's go over there and see if we can find anything else to eat."

The team member shook his head and said, "Xiao Zhou, Team Qin and the others have checked over there, and there is nothing to eat."

Zhou Xiaozhou turned and looked at Wu Sanmei and several local people.

The team member guessed her thoughts and said, "I took this girl there before, but she said she didn't recognize anything there."

What? Zhou Xiaozhou couldn't believe his ears.

Did even the species change?

Wu Sanmei also quickly explained: "Sister Zhou, Brother Hu is right, we have indeed been there."

Seeing Zhou Xiaozhou still looking unconvinced, another teammate named Xiao Zhang who had a limp became impatient.

"Xiao Hu, why did you say so much to her! If she doesn't believe it, let her see for herself."

Then Xiao Zhang hugged the bag of fruit in his arms tightly and said, "But let me be frank. This is a safe place that Captain Qin has scouted out in advance. We can't be sure what's there or not."

Having said that, most people will not cause trouble to others.

But who is she? She is Zhou Dachuan!

oh! No!

Now, she is Zhou Xiaozhou, who is isolated and helpless.

This is a life-threatening situation, who would compromise with you?

"Okay." Zhou Xiaozhou put all the fruits in his hand into Wu Sanmei's pocket, "I'll go over there by myself, you guys go back first! It's okay, I'll go up and take a look."

After she finished speaking, she turned and left.

But after walking a few steps, Wu Sanmei caught up.

Zhou Xiaozhou didn't say anything either, and the two of them walked quickly forward.

After climbing to the top of the mountain, Zhou Xiaozhou confirmed his previous thoughts. This was not an earthquake mudslide!

She plucked up the courage to guess that this was probably the precise positioning of the missile!

As far as the eye can see, an irregular circle is formed with a large lake in front as the center. In the middle of the circle is freshly turned over soil, and walking outward, there is still the lush forest.

Zhou Xiaozhou's heart sank. She didn't believe that Qin Tao didn't understand the situation.

When we returned to the temporary tent, Qin Tao and the others had not returned yet.

Xiao Hu, Xiao Zhang, Zhang Gou'er and Zhao Xiaoer were processing the fruits they had just picked.

Both children became very silent, not as lively and cute as Zhou Xiaozhou knew them in the past.

Zhou Xiaozhou and Wu Sanmei also quickly joined in.

This fruit is really strange. It tastes so sour when you bite it, but after boiling it in boiling water, the sour taste disappears and it leaves a fresh fragrance, a bit like powdery taro.

Zhou Xiaozhou asked Wu Sanmei: "Have you ever eaten this kind of fruit before?"

Wu Sanmei shook her head repeatedly: "I've never eaten it before, I've never even seen it before."

Zhou Xiaozhou asked Zhao Xiaoer and Zhang Gouer again, and they also shook their heads.

Zhang Gou'er also said, "Teacher Zhou, Sanmei and Da Niu used to go farther away to pick wild vegetables than we did, but she had never seen them. We used to stay in the village and had not seen many fruit trees."

The careless mention of "big girl" made Zhao Xiaoer's eyes red. Seeing this, Wu Sanmei walked forward silently and hugged Xiaoerzi.

Zhou Xiaozhou felt sorry and even more strange.

How come this fruit, which even the natives have never seen, suddenly appeared?

This series of events made Zhou Xiaozhou think more.

The camp was so depressing that Zhou Xiaozhou didn't want to talk.

Fortunately, Qin Tao and his men returned quickly, and the entire temporary camp seemed to come alive in an instant.

Because they were all injured.
