Natural disasters were incessant. Ning Xia had survived alone for six years and finally decided to return to her old home in Qianzhou to start anew. Unexpectedly, she rescued two skinny little ones...
Ningxia acted as if nothing had happened and got up early the next day.
"All the mules are here. The ones in the corner are for breeding, so don't pick them." A thin man looked at the note handed over by Ningxia and led the man to the livestock shed without saying a word.
Looking around Ningxia, the animals are indeed well-fed and plump. Indeed, they are short of everything except fodder.
In recent years, these livestock have become much larger than before, and this mule looks no different from the horses of the past.
"Is there no distinction between male and female?"
The man smiled and said, "There's no difference between male and female for the ones we sell. The males are all castrated, so there's no difference between them and the females. I see you only want one, and I figured you wouldn't buy one to keep for breeding, so I brought you here to choose."
Ningxia didn't understand, and it was too difficult to trouble others, so he just picked a mule with long hair around its ears that he liked.
Ningxia was leading a mule, both pockets of which were stuffed full. The mule was young and strong, and its size was not much different from the horses before the disaster year. It could carry nearly 400 kilograms of things easily without any effort.
In the evening, Ningxia pulled a mule loaded with goods out of the base. When she came back, it was late at night. The mule was empty and she didn't have much stuff, so she didn't attract anyone's attention.
Ningxia went home and had a good sleep. As soon as the sun rose, she went out. After seeing Kaile and his group off, she finally arrived at Chen Jin's house. It was still early, and Mu Yuanqing hadn't arrived yet. Ningxia found a worn chair and sat down, folding her arms and trying to catch up on some sleep.
Chen Jin looked at the woman hiding in the corner, whose face he couldn't see clearly. After thinking for a while, he finally spoke, "Ningxia..."
After just calling out the name, Ningxia interrupted him coldly, "Don't say anything."
Chen Jin scratched his head, feeling a little overwhelmed. "Do you know what I'm going to say?"
Ningxia opened her eyes, straightened up so that her face was back in the light, and looked at Chen Jin without any hesitation with her sharp eyes.
Chen Jin lamented, "It's been over two years, and you still don't understand Shanzi. The coalition needs him! He has his own great ambitions, and it's not like he won't be coming back."
Ningxia sneered, full of sarcasm. "Then tell me, when will he come back? After all, I'm leaving after tonight. Do you think someone with such great ambitions like him can rely on his ambitions to find his fiancée, whose life or death is unknown, when he comes back?"
The three of them had been partners back then. Chen Jin had contributed greatly to Mo Guanshan's time together, and of course, this man had counseled Mo Guanshan before he left with the coalition forces. Otherwise, he wouldn't have left so decisively. Ningxia lowered her eyes, an unreadable expression in them.
Chen Jin frowned. "What are you talking about? I'm not leaving. Where are you going? Leave me a message. When he comes back, I'll tell him so he can find you."
The smile on Ningxia's face became more obvious, as if he didn't care at all. "Are you sure you can survive tonight? Oh, yes, he may have died outside a long time ago. After all, it's been more than two years. If you die tonight, it's just right that we can be companions on the road to the underworld. We can be brothers in the next life, but you have to be born into a good and excellent family. Don't be like this life, where he seems to have someone to realize his ambitions, but you are left alone in this doghouse with no one paying attention to you." After saying that, Ningxia ignored the man's ugly face, closed her eyes again and returned to the shadows.
It doesn't matter whether she offends someone or not. She never likes good-natured people like Chen Jin. If it weren't for Mo Guanshan, she wouldn't have said a word to this guy at all.
The two were about to say something else when a sound came from outside the house. Chen Jin had no choice but to stop the conversation and get up to open the door.
Ningxia looked at the dozen or so scattered people brought by Mu Yuanqing, and glanced at them one by one. They were all good people and had formed temporary teams many times when taking on missions before.
"Ningxia, take your men to the main building. I've taken care of all the hunting team members patrolling the first floor. But you'll have to handle the second and third floors yourselves. This is a sentry post." Mu Yuanqing handed over a rough, yellowed piece of paper. Ningxia carefully put it away.
The main building, located in the very center of the base, is also the tallest building, with six floors. It should be noted that in order to prevent various force majeure disasters, the tallest building in the base is only four and a half floors.
Before Lie Feng took over the government, this was the office. Later, the base was outsourced to Mu Yuanjun, and this man moved in with his men. It can be said that all his power is in this building.
"I'm going to the Agricultural College and then back home. I've got that bastard stuck at home tonight, so he won't be going to the main building for now. Chen Jin, go here and take someone to hide near the main building. When Ningxia and the others give the signal, take them to the sixth floor. Here's the map."
Mu Yuanqing arranged everything in an orderly manner, and then pulled Ningxia aside and whispered quietly, "Chen Zhifang is on the fifth floor. That's the little blue dot marked on the map I gave you. Find an opportunity to kill him quietly and don't make any noise. He has a lot of minions under his command, and it's inevitable that the people who acted with you tonight will betray you later."
Ningxia nodded slightly with a gentle look, which showed that she appreciated her kindness.
As it was getting darker, Ningxia led 17 or 8 people to the main building. As they were busy preparing for the spring harvest, the few street lights in the base were all off.
The group hid in the darkness, making no sound. Just as they reached the gate, a head popped out, and Ningxia quickly attacked with a dagger.
"One of us! I'm my beloved sister's man!" If he had been a second slower, his neck would have been bruised.
Ningxia peeked inside and saw several people lying in the corner of the hall, their lives unknown. She did not put down the dagger, but moved forward.
"Don't do it! Do you have a map in your hand? I drew it. There's a little blue dot on it! I marked it too!"
