Chapter 206 Parasitic Apocalypse 5 (End)
Dong Shale was used to being frugal while living in the city.
At first, they wouldn't even share their water with the neighbors, and they covered their water tanks and basins tightly every day.
Dong Youping could only take her daughter for a few walks around her aunt's house.
The area features streams, rivers, and mountain springs.
This indicates that the entire hilltop belongs to my aunt, so no one will come to collect supplies or utility bills.
Moreover, they can cook using coal, branches, and firewood.
Electricity is supplied by generators and solar power.
There's really nothing to worry about.
Held up by his mother's arms as he looked out over the surrounding mountains and forests, Dong Shale suddenly felt like he was Simba.
This time, the children have a new goal.
That means wanting to be like a little lion, the king of the forest or something.
Upon hearing this, Dong Youping quietly mixed a physical training comic book into the comic books at home.
Fortunately, her goal wasn't time travel or interstellar travel, otherwise she probably would have taken longevity pills and started building a starship with her daughter.
However, becoming the king of the forest is still a long way off.
At present, Dong Youping is busy with farming, growing vegetables, fishing and drying fish, and stockpiling firewood for the winter.
The insect tattoos on her body were a little confused after they came to life.
Where am I? Why can't I find any insect eggs? Maybe I should take another nap. Maybe a good night's sleep will make my troubles disappear.
The sapling banyan tree, busy picking out insect eggs to eat in the gray fog, scratched its head.
It turns out there was one more person who slipped through the net.
Dong Shale has recently taken a liking to collecting firewood.
Especially sometimes, while you're picking things up, a silly rabbit will suddenly hop over.
Compared to the roe deer that follow you around in circles every day.
Dong Shale thought rabbits were better; rabbits could be raised and there would be more than enough to eat in just a few months.
It's nothing like a little roe deer falling into a pit and needing a child like her to rescue it.
Oops, my collar got caught.
When I looked up again, it was my mother.
"Shale, didn't Mom tell you that kids need to rest after working? Have you forgotten about balancing work and rest?"
"I haven't forgotten my mom. I was just playing head-to-head with the little roe deer."
As he spoke, he gave the little roe deer a look.
The little roe deer understood, and ran over with its head down, waiting for the little human to push it away.
Dong Youping loosened her daughter's clothes, crossed her arms, and suppressed a laugh.
After clearing his throat, he informed little Dong Shale that they would be going to the trading market tomorrow.
I'll go back early later to pack my things.
After saying that, he picked up the little brat, filled a basket with branches, and carried it away.
The little banyan tree cheered for Pingping's performance with its clapping.
Pingping looks just like a mother.
Unlike a small banyan tree, which, no matter how much acting skills it learns, is useless; it either acts like a tree or a small potted plant.
...
I've spent too many days exposed to the wind and sun in the woods.
The two members of the Dong family no longer needed to smear things on their faces when they went out, unlike before.
Even upon close inspection, it's impossible to tell the gender.
Nutritional biscuits from the food factory are still a valuable commodity; the original owner had saved up quite a few when he was working there. There are also other medicines and food that can be exchanged for other things.
Aunt's family had no shortage of daily necessities or food, so Dong Shale looked around but didn't change anything.
Dong Youping did make a token effort to exchange the farm tools and seeds.
The main reason for this trip was to bring my daughter to interact with living people. In the forest, there were only rabbits and roe deer, and we didn't even encounter a single insect-like creature. I was worried that she would feel bored and unhappy.
Dong Shale was unaware of his mother's good intentions.
They were staring at each other, one of the vendor's kids, trying to see who could widen their eyes the longest and who could hold their gaze the longest.
It's impossible to strike up a conversation.
My mother said that some people can analyze other people's current living conditions by looking at small details.
There are several related books in my aunt's study.
Therefore, she would not speak, remove her mask, or reach out her hands, giving no one a chance to understand her situation.
Dong Youping wanted to offer some advice but didn't know where to begin.
In the current social environment, the little girl's idea is obviously quite right. It would be good to let the banyan tree burn calming incense for people at irregular intervals at night.
There are small Gu worms at home to help.
Dong Shale's growth was less troublesome than Dong Youping had imagined.
She's a worry-free mother, but the other residents in the woods don't agree.
Having secretly practiced the martial arts techniques from comic books, Dong Shale wreaked havoc throughout the forest, racing wild boars, challenging bears to tree-climbing contests, and even catching a sick wolf to use as a means of transportation...
She didn't even spare pythons, foxes, or weasels.
Only the neighbor's roe deer has ever enjoyed the gentle embrace of a child.
My daughter is making waves on a small scale, and as her mother, I can't fall behind.
Go out and crack down on those crooked and evil organizations whenever you have free time.
After killing so many ruthless evolved beings, Dong Youping felt that he was becoming a bit ruthless himself.
Let's talk about this evolved being.
Perhaps they were living too well, as the family was busy in the laboratory, trying to cultivate insectoid beings that could eat humans?
Is he sick?
It has to involve creating a mutant and launching a plan to wipe out all of humanity, doesn't it?
She remembered that she had just shut down the "insect-human edible" laboratory a few days ago.
The researchers in that lab were all evolved beings, eating insects until they went mad, like demons in cultivation novels.
Eating is one thing.
They also raised many men and women to create babies.
After giving birth, the children are sent into the gray fog. The insect eggs parasitize the human body and are then raised in a concentrated manner, waiting for someone to choose them. After being scientifically catalyzed into insect-humans, they become food on the plate, to be eaten by the experimenters and a dozen or so wealthy patrons.
Dong Youping was puzzled.
Dong Youping even felt that using his mental power was a way to let them enjoy happiness.
In the end, it was the small banyan tree with hooks and barbs that stepped in and resolved the matter.
And then another one came along.
Thinking about how many more perverted laboratories there were, Dong Youping felt exhausted. He decided to leave the more remote ones to Rongrong.
This thing is like a cockroach.
There's no way to kill them all.
...
Having successfully become the King of the Forest, eighteen-year-old Dong Shale felt utterly bored.
Dong Youping understood immediately.
If the animals in the forest could talk, they would definitely be crying and begging for mercy.
Okay, I'll arrange a permanent amulet for the child and then let them go out.
With the Gu worm as a cheat code, and a bit of extra-star power, the child will be fine as long as he doesn't go and attack the female or male lead.
Moreover, the outside world has collapsed to the point that there are no rules to speak of.
One day after lunch.
Carrying two large bags of luggage, Dong Shale was in a good mood and even turned around to wave to her mother.
"Mom, I'll be back for Chinese New Year~ You'll have to wait for me for New Year's Eve dinner."
"Okay, okay, be careful, and don't mention the bugs, okay?"
"Okay~ Goodbye, Mom~"
The outside world~ Dong Shale is here~
With Dong Shale running wild outside, Dong Youping no longer needed to be a female knight-errant; she only occasionally took Rongrong to the Endpoint Lab to play.
They also have to wait for their children to come home for dinner every year in the mountains.
From once a year to once every three years, and then once every five years.
In the end, when both of them became dignified, white-haired old ladies, they stopped going out to make their way in the world.
The former nutritional biscuits have been upgraded to nutritional pastes and liquids.
The recipes are actually quite similar.
The evolved beings have already found the correct way to absorb energy. Coexists can also pay to increase their chances of becoming evolved beings. The insectoids still have no human rights; they are either homeless or become test subjects.
The disease has become rare and now it has to be put into the laboratory.
Unfortunately, no one will ever go out to do good deeds in the middle of the night anymore; humans can only rely on themselves forever.
After cremating his daughter, Dong Youping sat in the courtyard and turned to dust.
Ignore the noise and disturbances from the outside world.
