Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 199

Chapter 199 -One Hundred Ninety-Nine: Wilderness Survivor

“`

Following Lin Xiuyuan’s reminder, Su Jin also recalled that very famous wilderness survival program. Since it was shot so realistically, it was incredibly popular for a time. Although it wasn’t known to every household, it was still famous among young people.

But why would they be here?

Si Tian and Zhong Ruyue were indeed the main participants of the wilderness survival program Lin Xiuyuan mentioned before the Apocalypse. They had come together because of their shared interests. Later, due to the popularity of an international wilderness survival program, they were also invited to join that survival show.

Despite being accompanied by a film crew, the two were truly outstanding wilderness survivors, especially Si Tian, who not only knew a lot of outdoor knowledge but was also well-researched on the flora and fauna of the forest, while Zhong Ruyue was always there to assist. Both had great physical strength and skills.

In the days before the Apocalypse erupted, the two had completed filming their program. When they saw the streets outside filled with people eating people, and as they gradually lost contact with their colleagues, friends, and even relatives, they resolved to find a remote place to hide, and the location they chose was North Mountain in the nature reserve.

As it was a nature reserve, there were no people around. They brought some supplies with them, and after effortlessly dealing with a few zombies near the foot of the mountain, they ascended North Mountain.

“But there are so many mutant animals here, you…” Huang Yunxiang asked incredulously. The mountain didn’t seem any safer than the base.

“We knew there were a lot of mutant animals here, as well as venomous insects and poison plants. However, we were already familiar with their habits, so living together with them on this mountain isn’t very hard at all,” Si Tian confidently said, and showed everyone his speed Special Ability.

When seeking food in the mountains and encountering danger, all he needed was to use his speed Special Ability to escape.

“May I ask, do you know if there are man-eating flowers on this mountain?” Su Jin took the opportunity to ask.

“You mean the Corpse Flower? There’s none of that here. But if you’re looking for carnivorous plants, there are quite a few Sedums,” Si Tian replied.

Sedum?

Seeing their puzzled expressions, Si Tian knew they hadn’t heard of this plant, so he offered to take them to see it.

“The place we live has many Sedums planted by my husband to ward off insects. You can take a look,” Zhong Ruyue said with a smile.

Su Jin was very interested in carnivorous plants, and they were indeed curious about the living conditions of the two. But there was the issue of the bear’s carcass…

After Si Tian and Zhong Ruyue turned and started walking up the mountain, Su Jin headed toward the brown bear, squatted down, and collected its carcass into Space.

The pair in the front didn’t seem to notice the commotion here, and Su Jin let out a sigh of relief.

When Si Tian and Zhong Ruyue looked back, the brown bear’s carcass was gone. However, they were not surprised. Since Zhong Ruyue was a Space Element Ability User herself, they guessed that among these people there was also a Space Element Ability User; otherwise, they wouldn’t have come hunting on the mountain without any luggage.

The group was led by Si Tian and Zhong Ruyue to the mountaintop, where a sizable stone house came into everyone’s view.

Seeing that the couple was set on staying, with no plans to go to the base, the others didn’t try to persuade them further. _{freewebnøvel.com}

Although Si Tian nodded in agreement, Su Jin could tell that they didn’t take her words to heart.

When Su Jin and the others were preparing to descend the mountain and return, the couple even enthusiastically invited them to stay for a meal since they did not lack food or clothing while living on the mountain, especially meat. After politely declining the offer, Su Jin and her companions left the place.

“Now that the most dangerous brown bear has been dealt with, we don’t have anything to worry about living here,” Si Tian said to Zhong Ruyue.

The two of them had lived here for so long, and what they feared the most was that fire-element brown bear. They always worried that the bear would follow the scent up the mountain. But today, that group of powerful Special Ability Users had actually killed it; this was a delightful surprise for both of them.

Zhong Ruyue also nodded, smiling as she leaned on Si Tian’s shoulder.

Even though it was the apocalypse, she was with the person she loved the most, and they had conceived a child out of their love. She no longer felt like it was the end of the world, but felt immensely happy instead. So, when the others suggested they go to the safety base today, she didn’t agree. It was quite nice for the two of them to live here like this.

“That Sedum…”

Zhong Ruyue suddenly remembered Su Jin’s words.

“It’s fine as long as we don’t touch it,” Si Tian said, not feeling that those few plants posed any danger. Moreover, there had been far fewer mosquitoes and insects in the house recently.

Zhong Ruyue stopped worrying. The bear had been dealt with, and they were going to have some barbecued meat to celebrate today. Her space still contained a lot of flour and rice, and Si Tian had also planted some wheat nearby. So, they didn’t need to worry about food for the time being. Compared to the man-eating world below the mountain, she was beginning to fall in love with life here.
