Zombie Apocalypse: Reborn With A Farming Space-Chapter 222: Another Healer ( 2 )
Ten minutes later, a thin layer of sweat covered Yin Yusheng’s forehead and back. Despite his efforts, nothing formed on his fingertips aside from a faint green glow.
Feeling drained, he stopped and sighed, "Looks like my wood-type ability is different from yours."
Zhou Huajian patted his shoulder reassuringly and said, "You just awakened your ability. Maybe once you have fully recovered, you will be able to create a vine too."
Although doubtful, Yin Yusheng nodded and didn’t respond.
Sensing his brother’s frustration, Zhou Huajian chose not to push him further, giving him space to think about his ability more.
Unbeknownst to them, the small green energy hidden in Zhou Huajian’s brain suddenly trembled with excitement. Using his meridian as a channel, the green energy traveled to his fingertip.
At that precise moment when Zhou Huajian’s fingers brushed against Yin Yusheng’s arm, the green energy seized the opportunity to quietly enter Yin Yusheng’s body. The amount of energy was so small that neither of them noticed any immediate changes. novelbuddy.cσ๓
Once inside Yin Yusheng’s body, the green energy merged with the dark green energy located in his brain. In the next instant, it transformed into the shape of a tiny sprout.
As this transformation occurred, Yin Yusheng suddenly felt his mind clear up. The irritation and exhaustion disappeared instantly, as if he had taken a refreshing shower or drank a calming tonic.
He glanced at his wrist and noticed a faint tattoo in the shape of a sunflower. As he stared at it, a sprout appeared on his palm.
"Hm? What is this?"
Hearing his words, Zhou Huajian turned and saw the sprout. A smile formed on his face as he said, "Maybe this is your ability?"
Feeling curious, Yin Yusheng poked the sprout. The moment his fingertip touched it, two green leaves unfurled and wrapped around his finger. When they uncurled, the small wound on his fingertip had disappeared.
Both of them stared in stunned silence. It took him a moment before he asked, "Huajian, did you see that?"
Zhou Huajian nodded and replied, "I saw it."
A moment later, Zhou Huajian said with joy evident in his voice, "Yusheng, it looks like your wood-type ability is for healing. Even though we already have Sister Jiang, having another healer is a huge blessing for our team."
Hearing the excitement in his voice, the others couldn’t help but ask, "What’s going on?"
"Did Brother Yusheng figure out how to use his ability?" Xiao Qi chimed in.
Zhou Huajian nodded and quickly explained what had happened.
When the team learned they had gained another healer, they erupted in cheers. They all knew how scarce medicine had become. A second healer meant another safeguard for their survival.
Once they confirmed the sprout’s healing function, they immediately reported the news to Jin Xuyan.
Not long after receiving the report, they arrived at a two-story house.
After getting out of the car, Xun Che waited for the Phantom Team to approach before saying, "Captain Jin, this house is prepared for you and your team. My team lives next door."
Jiao Lizhi looked at the house, then asked, "Captain Xun, what about the survivors?"
Xun Che smiled and explained, "This residential complex covers a large area. It’s divided into three villa zones, eight housing blocks, and twenty apartment areas."
"We have reclaimed one villa zone, three housing blocks, and two apartment areas. The survivors are housed in the apartment areas. The villas and housing blocks are reserved for leaders, ability-users, and soldiers."
Jiao Lizhi nodded, then asked again, "Are there any rules about supplies found by ability-users or ordinary people?"
Shaking his head, Xun Che replied, "So far, we haven’t enforced any rules. Whatever supplies the ability-users or survivors find belong to them."
Jin Xuyan frowned at his words and asked, "Captain Xun, are you saying the supplies gathered by the soldiers are used to support the base, but the base doesn’t offer anything in return?"
"It’s not that I haven’t raised the issue," Xun Che said. "But the Mayor insists that, as leaders, we should be generous and not touch supplies earned through others’ hard work."
As soon as he said that, one of his team members scoffed and said, "That old man only knows how to use our efforts to build his reputation. If he is so generous, why doesn’t he send out his own people—or go himself?"
"We lost so many comrades to get those supplies, and in the end, not to mention we didn’t get a work of thanks, we even got less supplies than those bootlickers."
The rest of Xun Che’s team quickly joined in, voicing their frustrations.
"Enough!" Xun Che cut them off and reminded them, "Talk less, or you will cause more trouble."
After hearing their complaints, Jin Xuyan said, "Captain Xun, we can discuss the supply situation later after you have handled your own matters."
Understanding the underlying message, Xun Che nodded and replied, "Alright. I will come find you once I have dealt with everything."
"Good."
After the brief conversation, Xun Che and his team went to find the Mayor, while Jin Xuyan and his team went to check the house. Although the floor and furniture were covered in a layer of dust and some blood stains, the house was in good condition.
When they were done checking the house, Jin Xuyan said, "Old Qin, help us clean the dust. Wen Kai, Wen Mo, the two of you go seal up the faucets and the pipes. Old Zhang, you go reinforce the wall."
"Understood!"
After he gave the orders, Jiao Lizhi asked Xiao Qi to take out the iron pots and fill them up with water.
At the same time, Qin Luzi stood in the yard and, with a wave of his hand, a small tornado appeared in front of him.
He controlled the tornado and sucked away all the dust inside the house. With his control over the wind and the air pressure, they didn’t need any vacuum cleaner at all.
