“Alright, let’s not talk about that for now. The farm work seems to be going pretty well. Is it because those seeds have good life-force? But, the soil still has some problems…” Lin Qiao stood up as she looked at the farmland outside.

“It’s not like that… You’ve only sensed the surface of the soil. If you get down and take a look, you’ll find that the soil here has already had some changes,” Liu Jun shook her head in disagreement.

“Eh? What changes?” Lin Qiao turned and looked at her confusedly.

“You’ll find out when you get down,” Liu Jun pointed at the potato field which was the nearest to them.

Lin Qiao walked to where she pointed at, then squatted on the ground and looked at the soil. Once she approached, she immediately sensed a little difference, and figured out what Liu Jun was talking about.

Liu Jun followed her into the farmland, standing behind her as she said, “Before sowing the seeds, we worried that the sprouts might be contaminated by the earth. But surprisingly, things happened the other way round. You left us a couple of buckets of energy water from the lake, so we fetched water from the nearest stream to dilute the lake water and then water the plants with it. The diluted lake water seems to have been purifying the soil.”

Lin Qiao picked up a handful of soil while murmuring, “It’s exactly like I thought. I was only guessing.”

Back then, she guessed that watering the plants with the lake water might keep the plants from being contaminated, but didn’t it expect it to purify the earth. She noticed that the soil under the potato roots had changed completely already.

Even though only a small range of soil had changed, Lin Qiao could tell that the soil around the potato roots had been radiating the combination of the energy in the lake and the energy which belonged to the potato plant itself. That combination was what had been purifying the soil bit by bit.

“If this goes on, maybe this whole land can be purified,” Lin Qiao stood up and looked at the other sprouts. The seeds that she left for Liu Jun and Xie Dong to sow didn’t occupy the entire land. One-third of the land was still empty.

“That is highly possible. However, these sprouts are still very new, so we’re not sure yet,” Liu Jun said. “Also,” she suddenly thought of something and continued, “I’ve asked the earth-powered zombie to dig a large pond between here and the stream, so we can water the plants more conveniently.”

“Great! How far is it from here?” Lin Qiao asked, eyes glowing.

“Over there, about eight-hundred meters away,” Liu Jun pointed at another direction.

Lin Qiao stood up and headed that way. Liu Jun and Duan Juan followed her, leaving behind the three level-four zombies which had been hiding behind the cabin.

Behind Lin Qiao, Liu Jun abruptly turned to Duan Juan and said, “Captain Duan, it’s such a surprise to see you again! My name is Liu Jun.”

Duan Juan gave a start, then looked at her as she nodded and responded, “Oh, hi! Do you… know me as well?”

Being greeted by a strange zombie made her feel a little weird.

In fact, Liu Jun’s appearance has changed largely. After she bathed in Lin Qiao’s lake water for a few times, the dark circles under her eyes were gone. Her eyes were still purely black though.

Her skin didn’t become smooth and delicate, but did become clean. The color of her skin remained bluish pale though.

“In fact, almost everyone from Hades Base knows you. You’re the leader of Chief Netherworld Fire’s guards,” Liu Jun smiled.

“Oh, I see! Are you from Hades Base?” Duan Juan immediately understood her meaning.

“Hm… The base wasn’t broken yet when I left,” Liu Jun nodded while walking side by side with her.

“You left? So you are…” Duan Juan paused for a second. She could tell that there was lots of information contained in Liu Jun’s words. She should still be a human being when she left the base. But now, she was a zombie, and also a follower of Lin Qiao. She must have been through a lot.

“Em… My husband abandoned my son and me on the way and escaped alone. My mind wasn’t clear after I became a zombie, but I was subconsciously trying to protect my son. A couple of days after I became a zombie, Chief found me,” Liu Jun gave a bitter smile, then raised her head to look at Lin Qiao.

At that time, Lin Qiao turned back and said, “Junjun, you upgraded, didn’t you? What’s your power?”

She had forgotten to ask Liu Jun about that.

Liu Jun looked at her and answered the question, “Ah, I have water power.”

Her water power allowed her to be very sensitive to water molecules. She sensed that stream nearby with her power, which was how she found it.

“Oh, water…” Lin Qiao nodded.

Liu Jun glanced up at the sky and said, “I think it’s going to rain.”

Duan Juan pulled her coat as she raised her head to look at the sky. A cold gust of wind blew across. The air temperature had indeed dropped largely today.

Lin Qiao glanced at the sky as well. The sky had been gray and cloudy today. She only sensed the low air temperature, but not the coming rain.

“Are you sure?” Lin Qiao turned and glanced at Liu Jun.

Liu Jun nodded at her and replied, “I can feel it.”

After a few minutes of walking, they saw a newly dug pond. The pond wasn’t large, only around a hundred meters squared in area. Only a small amount of water accumulated in the pond, and the water was muddy.

Liu Jun said, “I can collect the rainwater and put it in this pond.”

“Rainwater is acidic. We still need to put some of my lake water in it,” Lin Qiao said while scratching her chin.

“You’re right. The air quality now is so much worse than back in the old days. The rainwater is always highly acidic now, so healthy plants can’t grow,” said Liu Jun.

Lin Qiao observed the environment around the pond, then turned and headed back.

“Junjun, your level is still too low. Without Yun Meng or Lili, you just can’t make these level-four zombies follow your orders,” said Lin Qiao while walking back.

“Eh?” Liu Jun didn’t understand Lin Qiao’s meaning and looked at her with confusion.

“I want you to be responsible for the farmland development and the farm work. Do you agree?” Lin Qiao smiled and asked her, “I’ll put more level-three and level-four zombies under your command to share your load. All you need to do is to give them orders. What do you think?”

“Ah, really? No problem, as long as I’m able to do it,” Liu Jun paused briefly, then understood her.

“You are. Haven’t you been doing pretty well now?” Lin Qiao smiled at her.

She always felt that Liu Jun, who didn’t have many other works to do, was rather diligent with the farm work. So, she had been thinking about letting her be responsible for the farmland since a long time ago.
