Chapter 398 Qin Jin's Parents

He forgot that his lover was the one who dared to seduce him under the nose of her gangster father, so she would not be afraid of such a small situation.

After Gu Qingji rested for a while, Antonio sent the two of them away and told Lu Weiyi about what happened here.

Compared to Gu Qingyue, Gu Qingji recovered faster. Within two days, there was no sign of abnormality in his body. He even took the initiative to ask Lu Weiyi if there was anything he needed to do.

"It's gone. The doctor recommends that you rest for a few days. You two can take a temporary vacation." Lu Weiyi took Ning Yuan to investigate the ice conditions on the sea. They had to shout while speaking in the howling cold wind.

"What is Liu Rui busy with every day?" Gu Qingyue found out after he came back that Li Zhuang and Xiongjie Wu Yue were leading people to build a residence in the base, Antonio was assigned to work overtime day and night in the laboratory, and Liu Rui was nowhere to be seen every day, as if he had nothing to do.

Knowing that there was a shortage of supplies, he was worried that he would be missing out, so he took the initiative to ask Zhuang Mingxu if there was anything he could do. The other party told him to come to Lu Weiyi.

"He's... turning on the heater." Ning Yuan thought for a moment and found a suitable word.

“?” Gu Qingji didn’t understand.

"The children's home at the base needs heating, so we need to save our firewood and charcoal." Ning Yuan looked at Gu Qingji with an incredulous expression and held back his laughter.

No one needs to tell you who came up with this idea, everyone knows who came up with it.

"There is currently no wood-type mutant in the base who can do this. If you have a lot of free time, you can work with Bai Miao to take charge of the ordinary people. Someone under him has made a hand-made loom, and he can assign people to build a manual defense line, or..."

"Go ask Brother Damu. Some people there are counting the supplies we brought back from the ruins. You can also go with Li Dongsheng to produce food." After Lu Weiyi gave him some suggestions, he asked Ning Yuan, "Based on the data reported every day, how thin can the ice layer be at its thinnest?"

"More than ten centimeters, and it can reach about thirty centimeters at night. It's enough for careful walking. If you do strenuous movement, you won't be able to support it."

"It's almost done. Starting tomorrow, gather all the water-based psychics in the base and start building an ice wall defense."

"With the thickness of the ground now, it will be difficult for us to stand on it, right?" Ning Yuan estimated based on last year's temperature conditions that if the other party took action, they would wait until it was colder, so it would be a bit too laborious for them to do so now.

"It's better to prepare in advance than to have accidents at the last minute." Lu Weiyi looked at the ice surface not far away. From time to time, he could see marine animals popping up and breathing through the ice above their heads. The deeper they went into the sea, the thinner the ice became, and they really couldn't support a direct ice wall. "Besides, we can urge them to finish the battle earlier and hibernate earlier."

But when faced with unknown dangers, people must learn to prepare for the worst, especially when there is already news.

The next day, Ning Yuan gathered all the water-based ability users in the base, more than a thousand people in total. They used their artificial abilities to construct a small iceberg surrounding the entire island. The iceberg was more than thirty meters high, with the part that was above the water being nearly twenty meters long. The steep slope extended out, and no one could enter the base on foot.

When the ice wall was built, four tanks were transported up to guard the direction close to the coast, and the base troops patrolled continuously every day.

Seeing this scene, the team in the base guessed that something had happened. I don’t know if it was after some discussion, but everyone tacitly agreed not to go out.

Looking at the list of teams returning to the base, Lu Weiyi was in a very good mood, "I thought there would be a team hiding outside and not coming back."

"There are only a few teams, so it's not difficult to find people if we really want to liquidate. Besides, everyone in our base is fully prepared for war. The occasional weapons experiments over such a long period of time are no joke, so we naturally know what to do." Zhuang Mingxu put away his things and stretched his waist.

"Recently, communications seem to be recovering. We are able to contact the outside world more every day than before. According to the data they reported, if nothing unexpected happens, it may be fully restored in the early spring of next year."

There is basically nothing to do at the base now, and with Lu Weiyi sharing some of the work, Zhuang Mingxu feels a lot more relaxed.

"That's great. Is there any news from Tang Bai? Did he say when he will come?" Lu Weiyi reached out and poked Qin Nian's cheek.

"No, Jiang Ning said there is no rush. He will probably send someone to scout first." Zhuang Mingxu smiled and said, "Xu Wen sent a batch of crystal cores yesterday, a total of 5,000. He said that Tang Bai wanted to thank us for taking care of his wife and daughter."

Lu Weiyi burst out laughing, "You accepted it?"

"Well, although we will take care of him even if he doesn't go out, it will make him feel more at ease if he is taken in. When I asked someone to send milk powder to Dong Baobao, I also sent him a few cans, as well as thick children's clothes and other necessary supplies for the winter."

"Okay, then..."

"Mingxu, I'm Old Bear!"

Lu Weiyi was halfway through his words when Zhuang Mingxu's intercom rang, and it was Xiongjie's voice on the other end.

Since he was in charge of guarding the ice wall today, the two looked at each other and fell silent. "Got it, please?"

"An elderly couple came down and said they were your friend's parents and came to seek refuge with you."

"What's your name?" Zhuang Mingxu raised his eyebrows.

"Qin Jin"

"Crash!" Even faster than Zhuang Mingxu's response was the vegetable basin that was knocked over by Yin Jin.

"What's wrong?" Lu Weiyi put the child down and stood up, asking in a low voice.

"It's okay, I didn't hold it firmly," Yin Jin said.

"They are my brother's parents. I will go to pick them up myself," Zhuang Mingxu said quickly, took the car keys and prepared to leave.

"I'll go."

"You don't know them."

"That……".

"I'm putting on my coat," Zhuang Mingxu said as he jumped into the car, started the car and left. His urgency was obvious.

"Are you okay?" Seeing Yin Jin's dazed expression, Lu Weiyi wiped the water off the ground for him.

Yin Jin shook his head, glanced out the window, and then quickly returned to normal.

After the base was established, Zhuang Mingxu had been in contact with each base, looking for everyone's relatives, and his good friend Qin Jin was no exception.

But there has been no news for a long time. Now that I hear that Qin Jin's parents are coming, my joy is beyond words.

When Zhuang Mingxu arrived at the city wall, Xiong Jie had already had someone bring an elderly couple up, along with Eric and Qin Yu, who was very beautiful in a red down jacket.

These two guys led the team out of the base early and there has been no news since then. Antonio said they are not dead and maybe they have established their own base.

They didn't ask any more questions, as they didn't expect him to come back at this time. But when they looked around, they saw that only one of the people who had followed them was left. "You're back?"

"They're all dead," Eric said directly, "Is it convenient for us to recuperate here for a few days?"

"Of course, it's still the old place where you live." Zhuang Mingxu made a gesture of invitation to the two of them, and hurriedly walked towards a pair of tightly wrapped elderly people at the back, and asked in confusion, "Uncle Qin?"

The old man "Mingxu" pulled down his patched scarf, revealing a weathered face. He looked in the direction behind Zhuang Mingxu and said, "Is Qin Jin with you? His mother is sick."

Zhuang Mingxu pursed his lips and did not answer, "I'll take you to the base first and let the doctor check your aunt's body."

After hearing what he said, Mr. Qin understood what he meant. He could not hide his disappointment in his eyes, but he still forced himself to help him help the unconscious old lady into the car.

"Give you a ride?" Zhuang Mingxu asked Eric.

"Thank you." Eric led the three of them into the car.

After a while, they arrived at the base hospital. Zhuang Mingxu got off the car first, carried the old lady on his back, and looked at Eric, "There are healing psychics at work today, you can go over and get treatment."

Even though he was wearing thick clothes, Zhuang Mingxu could still smell the blood coming from the three people.

Without waiting for the three to answer, he took the two old men and walked in first.

The hospital is on duty in winter, and there are only a few surgeons on duty. The treatment department also works every three days. Today is Xu Yi's turn.

Before entering Xu Yi's office, the first thing that wafted out was the aroma of roasted sweet potatoes. Zhuang Mingxu knocked on the door and went in. He saw Xu Yi lying comfortably on the bed, drowsy, and Li Zhuang was turning over a few sweet potatoes on the charcoal stove next to him.

"Why are you here?" Zhuang Mingxu asked as he put the person on the bed and said to Xu Yi, "Help take care of a patient."

"Come out and relax..."

The gentle voice of "Brother Zhuangzhuang" made Li Zhuang pause, and he handed over the sweet potato in his hand quickly.

Qin Yu happily took it and said, "Thank you, brother."

"Are you injured?" Li Zhuang saw scars on her face covered by her hair. You know, this girl loves beauty the most.

"Yeah, the zombies outside are so powerful." Qin Yu peeled the skin without affecting her delicate voice. She took a bite and her beautiful eyes narrowed into slits.

Xu Yi had already repaired the old lady's injuries, but she was still not awake. "She has recovered, but she has a slight fever, and she is old..."

Xu Yi didn't say it so clearly. "There are some diseases of the elderly. My special ability can only heal injuries, not diseases. Why don't you go to the hospital to see if there is any solution?"

"Okay." Zhuang Mingxu paid the contribution points neatly and took the old man to where the doctor was.

"Little brother, what is this?" Qin Yu asked curiously, looking at the instrument in his hand.

"For payment," Xu Yi explained.

"But I didn't, Brother Zhuangzhuang, I'm hurt." Qin Yu pouted and looked at Li Zhuang.

"Then take out the crystal core," said Li Zhuang.

"Shouldn't a gentleman say he paid for me?" Qin Yu's expression changed immediately and he rolled his eyes at him.

"Do I look like a gentleman?" Li Zhuang asked in a strange tone.

"...Fuck!" Qin Yu was speechless and asked Xu Yi, "How do I pay for the crystal core?"

"It depends on the extent of the injury and how much you want to recover." Xu Yi showed her the charging standards and took a ripe sweet potato that Li Zhuang handed to her.

Qin Yu complained about how expensive it was while taking off her clothes without any hesitation.

When the sweater was taken off, the body wrapped in gauze was revealed. Just by looking at the area, it was obvious that the injury was serious, especially since there was fresh blood on the gauze.

But she didn't show any of it on her face, and discussed with him in a relaxed tone whether the treatment system could remove scars and whether it could also remove the scars she had in the past.
