Ordinary observers in fast time travel

Chapter 988 In My Lifetime

Xia Zhixue didn't believe that Yuan Muxia could develop seeds that ordinary people could grow! How could someone as ordinary as her, someone who almost got herself killed, possibly achieve such a thing?
Xia Zhixue couldn't understand how things had turned out this way after only half a month at the Yan Dong base. Not only had Yuan Muxia become a planter revered by thousands, achieving such unattainable feats.

Moreover, the base's leadership underwent a major reshuffle. All the base leaders they had painstakingly won over had actually mutated and died.
Are you kidding?
Therefore, it's a conspiracy, it must be a conspiracy!

“Brother Lei, it’s a conspiracy! We must expose him!” Xia Zhixue said, her lips trembling.

Fang Yanlei's face was gloomy. This trip to the Yandong Base had not yielded the great results he had imagined. Not only had he failed to gain the support of the people of the Yandong Base, but he had also been forced to do hard labor for nearly a month!
Hearing these things now, his shock and resentment were more intense than anyone else's. But, perhaps because he had been suppressed by Fu Ruochen for nearly a month, he finally understood how to face reality.

He shoved Xia Zhixue aside, his voice cold and deep, "Expose? Expose to whom?"

"Han Shanyue? Yuan Lei? Or the dead Yun Qianshan?" Fang Yanlei sat weakly on the sofa, browsing the base forum, extracting the information he needed from the vast amount of information.

The more he looked, the more alarmed he became. He couldn't help but wonder what would have happened if he hadn't gone to the Yan Dong base and had stayed in Yan Zhong instead…

He couldn't help but shiver!
Fang Yanlei let out a long breath; perhaps he was lucky.

"Boss, boss!"

Fang Yanlei's ears twitched; the sound was coming from the villa next door. It was Fan Lin's five simple-minded henchmen, and Fan Lao Er, the second one, had such a loud voice.

"What new information have you found out?" He couldn't help but stand up and walk outside.

"Shut up! Have you brought back the groceries I asked you to buy?" Fan Lin shouted impatiently.

"Boss, we've bought them. Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother, and I lined up together and bought a total of 6 jin of vegetables," Fan Lao Er quickly lowered his voice.

"Hurry up and wash the vegetables, we'll grill the meat right away." Fan Lin looked at the fresh and tender vegetables in the basket and couldn't help but drool.

"Oh, okay, boss, didn't you say you'd take us to Fuyuanlou for a meal?" Fan Lao Er couldn't help but ask.

"You're being picky when there's barbecue to eat! Don't you know how hard it is to make a reservation at Fuyuanlou?" Fan Lin glared at him. Who wouldn't want to go to Fuyuanlou? But as soon as he got back, he called to ask, and the reservation was already booked for two weeks later.

"Oh, that's true." Fan Lao Er scratched the back of his head, chuckled, and carried the vegetables to wash them.

Upon hearing this, Fang Yanlei frowned, turned around, and went back into the house.

Soon after, the rich aroma of roasted meat wafted from the neighboring yard.

"Thanks to the purifier who helped purify the beast meat before I left, I'll have something to eat when I get back." Fan Lin smiled smugly as he ate the roasted meat.

"Yes, the boss is brilliant!" the five underlings echoed.

"Boss, shall we go outside the city tomorrow too?" Xiao Wu mumbled, chewing his food.

"Go outside the city? No way! I just got back, I need to rest for at least a month!" Fan Lin vowed!
"Huh? Boss, aren't you going?" the fourth brother asked in surprise.

"No, we're not going! You all should get some rest too. There's no need to work so hard. We're not short of money!" Fan Lin advised.

"I'm a little tired, but I want to go!" Xiao Wu said.

The fourth brother nodded, "Right, it won't make a difference if we go one more day. Why don't we go together, eldest brother? We'll regret it if we miss it."

Fan Lin frowned, regretting his words? "What are you talking about? What kind of riddles are you playing!"

"Huh? Boss, you don't know?" the fourth brother said in surprise.

"what do you know?"

"Didn't the second brother tell you?" Xiao Wu looked at Fan Lao Er in confusion.

"Second brother!" Fan Lin's face darkened.

Fan Lao Er felt a chill run down his spine and hurriedly said, "Boss, I was just about to say something, but you interrupted me and told me to hurry up and wash the vegetables."

Fan Lin looked puzzled. This guy came back and started shouting loudly. When did he say that?
"Say it!"

"Okay, so it's like this, when we were buying groceries, we heard from the people at Fuyuan Supermarket..."

"Tell the important point!"

"I'll go, boss. Woye Farm is harvesting wheat tomorrow, are you coming?" the fourth brother said. "The five of us have already signed up. If you're going, boss, hurry up and register on Woye Farm's official website!"

"Woye Farm? Harvesting wheat? You've all signed up?" Fan Lin's face darkened.

"Yes, yes, it's the original planter's farm," the fourth brother said. "So, you guys secretly signed up, leaving me out?" Fan Lin said angrily!

“Boss, I’ve already registered you.” Xiao Yi said. Because he was the eldest of the five brothers and because of his status as the eldest, Xiao Yi had always been relatively unknown.

"Hmph, Xiao Yi is still the most sensible!" Fan Lin gave him a sensible look.

"Alright, tell me what happened? And have any of you ever done farm work before?"

"Boss, we don't need to harvest the wheat, we're going to be 'wheat protectors'," the fourth brother quickly explained.

"Wheat protector?"

"Yes, according to the supermarket staff, when the wheat ripens, it attracts strange beasts that will try to steal it. Since this harvest covers more than 100 acres, the original grower was worried about attracting a beast tide, which is why he recruited guards," Xiao Si explained.

"Participating in the 'Wheat Protector' program will get you a dinner at the Woye Farm, plus a reward of 500 contribution points."

Fan Lin waved his hand, "Contributing points or something is not important. What's important is dinner, cough cough, it's about protecting the base's food security."

"Yes, to safeguard the base's food security!"

Smelling the aroma of food and listening to the occasional laughter from next door, Fang Yanlei felt a sense of loneliness envelop him.

He used to have teammates, but now he's left with only Xia Zhixue.

Thinking of Xia Zhixue, that woman who still can't see the truth, Fang Yanlei felt irritated. When did things turn out like this?
It was when we returned from the base that we discovered Natsumi Haruka wasn't dead...

"Ah-"

"Teacher? Have you caught a cold?" Wang Baobao looked at the overcast sky outside and the cool breeze brushing against her cheek. The weather was starting to get colder.

Soon, Yanmu Kingdom will enter the cold season.

Shi Jia shook her head. "No, it must be someone talking about me behind my back." She looked up at the sky and said, "It's going to rain tonight. I'll speed up the ripening of the wheat later. You and Yunming can arrange for the ability users to stand guard. As for Xiao Wang and the other two, they'll be in charge of the harvest."

"Yes!" all the employees answered in unison.

Soon, all the superhumans arrived. In addition to the superhumans, there were also many ordinary people who had registered and drawn lots to be selected.

The first harvest of crops planted in the wild after the apocalypse—such a significant event, who could possibly miss it?
Unfortunately, the Woye Farm has limited space, so in the end only about a hundred people could be selected.

At this moment, Shi Jia stood in the middle of the wheat field, her mental energy enveloping all the wheat. She could see the condition of the wheat at a glance, which grains were ripe and which were not plump enough.

Suddenly, a rich green light burst forth from her body and instantly spread to every corner of the wheat field.

Visibly, the wheat changed from pale yellow to golden yellow.

"Ow—"

"Boom——"

All the superhumans immediately became alert, their supernatural attacks ready to be unleashed.

The stench of blood mingled with a strange aroma of wheat, drifting away until finally, the hum of machinery echoed through the wheat field…

"Wow—we won!"

"Haha, wheat, steamed buns, bread... Waaah!"

"I never imagined I'd live to see the wheat harvest!"

"Wow--"

……

one year later
"Feifei, hurry up! It's finally our turn to awaken our spiritual power!"
