"This piece of land is not mine. I am just farming it for others." Father Zhao used this excuse to prevent these young people from going too far. Otherwise, they would have snatched it away long ago and would not be willing to please him.

They laughed and beat around the bush with Zhao's father: "Who is that person? We are from the big base too. Tell us his name, maybe we know him."

Another said, "We're not taking it for nothing. We're helping you with your work. Just give us a few to eat."

Two of them simply broke off two sweet potato vines and ate them raw, saying as they ate, "Wow, this tastes much better than grass, it's so tender."

Their attitude became more and more arrogant because they found that the old man's supernatural power was not that strong, there were women and children in the house, and they didn't know whether the person behind him he mentioned really existed.

After one day and two days, these people finally couldn't bear it anymore. Seeing that they looked unhappy, Zhao's father had no choice but to dig up some sweet potatoes for them. However, he only gave them to them in the morning. In the afternoon, they clamored even louder.

When Zhao Hengshui rushed back, he saw a group of people of different heights gathered in front of their land, confronting his father. The one in the front was even trying to push his father.

"What are you doing!" He shouted and rushed over. The young men were shocked to see that someone was really coming. When they saw the five deputy captains' burly and powerful figures, the guns on their bodies, and their cold and unfriendly eyes, their calves began to tremble again.

"It's a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding." The leader laughed dryly.

Suddenly, someone recognized one of the deputy captains: "I think I've seen you before. I saw you at the training ground at the base. You're one of Lin Zhongrong's men!"

The five vice-captains glanced at each other. These young men looked a bit like the second-generation rich kids at the base, except they were dressed in rags, their hair was tangled and their beards were stubbled, and they were emaciated from hunger. They were unsure at first, but after hearing what he said, they were certain.

Now that I've been recognized, I can only...

The second-generation rich exchanged glances, and the leader said with a smile, "Are you here on a mission? Take us to your base camp to rest. When we return to the base, I'll have Commander Lin reward you."

He had already decided to fool these people first, and it would be easy once he determined the location of their base camp.

However, those who can be deputy captains are not stupid. They pretended to give food to the other party, but they knocked the person unconscious unexpectedly.

Not a single one was left, they fell all over the ground.

"One, two, three... eight, nine! There are nine people in total, which is quite a lot. Report them quickly." The deputy captains said as they took out the equipment in their bags and put together several components to make a simplified communication machine to send a signal to Dayan Mountain.

There is no signal tower here, but with this communication machine, we should be able to get in touch. After all, it is only a hundred kilometers away.

Sure enough, it took some effort to get in touch.

Lin Man learned that the task force accidentally encountered people from the Reunion Base, so he had no choice but to use their transport plane, which consumed a huge amount of fuel every time it moved. What else could he do? With so many people, he had to pick them up first.

The captain of the fifth squadron, who was in charge of the aircraft, looked at her sadly: "Boss, we really don't have much fuel left."

"I know, but we can't just ask them to carry nine people back." Lin Man also felt tired. Why was it so difficult to save some oil? She was embarrassed to continue asking her father for oil. It was different from fertilizer or something. It was a strategic material.

I wonder if it's possible to blackmail their elders with nine people. It is said that they are all second-generation rich people with prominent backgrounds.

The tall and strong captain said with concern for the country and the people, "There are many electric-powered aircraft at Tuanyuan Base. Should we try to get one or two?"

Lin Man: "..." Do you still remember that you came from the reunion base? Turning back and trying to steal people from the old base, that's not a good idea, right?

But Lin Man still heard this for the first time: "Using electricity? That's very energy-efficient."

"Yes, but it's more expensive, flies slower, has a smaller load capacity, and is more prone to breakage."

Lin Man: "..." No wonder her father didn't give her a few planes.

Lin Man personally took a transport plane and quickly reached his destination. He also shoveled away the sweet potato field along with the sweet potatoes and soil. No one would complain about having too much food, right?

Less than half an hour had passed since they returned to Dayan Mountain when Lin Man locked up the legendary second-generation rich people in a small dark room with only one skylight, which was the same room where Zhao Hengshui was imprisoned before. He first looked at these guys who were tied up tightly, and found that there was no difference between them and homeless people.

"Whoever is the leader, wake him up. I have something to ask."

Zhang Kaiqi is the nephew of the head of the Reunion Base. With the help of his great uncle, he lives a smooth life even in the end times. He is not a model young man at heart, but in order not to tarnish his great uncle's reputation, he also pays more attention to moral cultivation, unlike other people who do a lot of bad things.

He was also the one who took the lead in planning this operation.

Unexpectedly, Lin Zhongrong's men were so cunning and actually launched a sneak attack. When Zhang Kaiqi fainted, he thought, it's over, Lin Zhongrong is too cruel, this time he might not be able to return alive.

But if he disappears, his family will definitely look for him, and then Lin Zhongrong's crimes will be exposed!

He comforted himself in this tragic way before fainting. Then, after an unknown amount of time, he woke up again, having been roughly awakened. He was a little irritable: "Who wants to die? I haven't slept this well in a long time!"

These days when he was away from home, he was worried every day, tormented between continuing the action and going home immediately, and he couldn't let anyone see that he was backing down. Is it easy for him?

"Want to sleep? I can let you sleep forever." A cold and faint voice sounded. Zhang Kaiqi shuddered, thinking that the voice was particularly dangerous. However, he only saw a... little girl?

"Who are you? Where is this place?"

"Don't you want to come to our base camp? This is it. Now you can tell us your purpose." Lin Man said lightly.

She had never done an interrogation before, but she was the daughter of a big boss and had experienced life-and-death crises, so she was not afraid of doing such things.

"Is this the place?" Zhang Kaiqi froze, his face twisted. Especially when he saw his companions tied up like silkworms, his face trembled twice, and he said with a forced smile, "We just came out to have fun, and while walking, we ended up here. We didn't expect to run into Commander Lin's men. Send us back quickly. My great-uncle is Commander Lin's boss, and they have a very good relationship, regardless of age difference."

"Hmm." Lin Man nodded and said to someone beside him, "He doesn't want to tell the truth, let's change him."

Then Zhang Kaiqi was tied up again without any explanation, gagged, and thrown into a dark corner. He watched Song Hui being awakened by the water, and then the little girl repeated the questions she had asked just now.

Song Hui was his best friend, as smart as him, and said similar things to him, and then... he was tied up and thrown to him just like him.

Song Hui, with his mouth blocked and a confused look on his face: “……!!!” Why are you here too!

Then the two of them watched together as their third companion was woken up.

This one was a brainless one. He yelled at Lin Man, "Is this the base that Lin Zhongrong secretly built? Everyone is desperately fighting zombies, but he stole the public property in the base and started his own business. How shameless! I tell you, you'd better let me go quickly and give up the base so that everyone can take refuge here. Otherwise, otherwise..."

Zhang Kaiqi and Song Hui almost shouted at the same time, "Are you fucking sick?!"

The person was still tied up and his life was in the other person's hands, but he dared to threaten the other person. The funniest thing was that he couldn't even tell the specific way of revenge.

They are going to be silenced, it's over.

Lin Man frowned and had this one tied up as well, and then brought the fourth one in for interrogation.

All nine people were questioned. Some of them, like the first two, thought they were very smart and tried to fool others, while others shouted and told everything. Lin Man also learned about Zombie Pit No. 1 and Zombie Pit No. 2. He also knew that although the situation in the north was not very serious at the moment, the situation was very tense.

She walked out and asked the five deputy captains who were still on standby: "Which team is responsible for digging the cellar this week?"

A deputy captain raised his hand: "It's our first team."

"Blindfold them and send them to the farthest cellar. Let them work there. Don't let them run around or look around. If they don't work, they won't be given any food."

The cellars are basically all on the north side of Dayan Mountain, and the situation on the south side cannot be seen at all. There is no need to worry about these people discovering anything. Lin Manke has no intention of supporting these nine people for nothing, so let them all work for her.

"Well, ask the Zhao family if they want to be supervisors." After all, they were bullied, so let them vent their anger.

She went back to contact Lin Zhongrong.

Lin Zhongrong was not there. The person who answered the phone was one of his subordinates, who said he was busy.

Lin Man stood for a while, went to bring in the thin quilt that was drying outside, and then sat cross-legged on the small bed by the window, with the long sword made for Lin Cheng on his legs. He had nurtured it for fifty days and had also used his mental power to carefully carve it for fifty days to imitate the appearance of a Tang sword in a movie on the computer. It had become very handsome and beautiful.

Because it was originally made of some red jade, the knife is transparent with several red lines. It looks mysterious and noble, yet has a hint of evil. It can be said that it is very beautiful.

…

When Chen Yu came back in the sunset, he was almost scared by his daughter.

In a somewhat dim room, under the window shone by the setting sun, she sat quietly cross-legged, a knife with a faint red glow lying across her legs, her hands still resting on it, her head slightly lowered with a cold expression, half of her face bright, half dark... Her whole aura was just like that of a swordsman burning incense, bathing and calming his mind before running out to kill!

Chen Yu called out in a trembling voice. Lin Man raised his head and smiled: "You're back. Oh, I forgot the time."

His expression and tone were very normal. Chen Yu breathed a sigh of relief: "What were you thinking about just now? Why did you look so cold?"

"Is your expression cold?" Lin Man was a little confused. "I'm using my spiritual energy to nourish the sword, and I have to use my mental strength to do that, and I have to think at the same time. Maybe I'm too busy and lost in thought?"

Chen Yu smiled and said, "What are you thinking about?"

"Thinking about the important things in life." Lin Man sighed and pointed to the communication machine on the table. "If I can't contact my dad tonight, I want to go to the north."

"Can't get in touch?" Chen Yu paused. "What do you mean?"

Lin Man then explained the situation in the north: "Either they're too busy, or something happened. Either way, I'm worried."

"What's the point of you going?"

Lin Man thought deeply and said, "If I can find them, I can give them some apples."

Chen Yu: “…”

"By the way, give this knife to Lin Cheng, Mom. This knife is very domineering and powerful. Maybe it can help him." Lin Man sighed, "I can only help so much. It's a pity that my dad doesn't want the knife, but he will probably be happy to see Xiao Hammer carrying it."

The corner of Chen Yu's mouth twitched. She had no idea what was going on in Lin Zhongrong's mind. He didn't want a weapon, but instead wanted a beauty hammer.

Chen Yu sighed: "Then you have to be careful."

"Yeah, don't worry. I'll have Guan Guan to take me. It only takes a little over an hour to get to the capital and back. Maybe, just like last time, I can be back before dawn that night."

She just didn't know where the reunion base was exactly, which way the gate faced, or where her father lived in the base. She would have to find someone to consult about this later.

…

Sure enough, her father was still "busy" in the evening, so Lin Man set out on the journey north to find her father.

Guan Guan was very helpful and they arrived near the destination in 40 minutes. However, this time Lin Man was not very good at distinguishing the direction, and Guan Guan naturally had even less ability. Although she was wearing a watch that could navigate, it didn't seem to be very useful.

Fortunately, Lin Man had already prepared for this situation. She played her ultimate trump card: "Guan Guan, let's go to where there are many people."

Guan Guan said: "I'm not smelling, I'm sensing, okay?"

"Okay, perception."

Guan Guan was flying in the night, saying that this flight would consume a lot of spiritual energy. Lin Man said it was okay, and she would ask for a few more flowers to replenish it when she met Lin Cheng.

A few minutes later, Guan Guan arrived at the nearest crowded place. Under the night sky, this huge city-like thing with no end in sight was lit up with some lights, and part of the city wall and some main roads could be vaguely seen.

Lin Man approached the place with the brightest lights. There were many planes of various sizes here. It was a busy time. Some people were moving things onto a transport plane. Lin Man squinted his eyes and saw that the word Dongyang was written on the transport plane.

Oops, I got the wrong place. This is actually Dongyang Base.

The Tuanyuan Base seems to be to the north of the Dongyang Base, not very far away.

"Guan Guan, let's fly north."

"Which way is north? Please point it out to me!"

"..." Lin Man fumbled around and found a compass. Before he could even look at it, he heard the two men who were about to climb onto the transport plane complain, "We have to send supplies over there again. When will it end? Isn't Lin Cheng very powerful? He's been there for how long? Why hasn't he cleared out all the zombies yet?"

Another person said, "Okay, stop complaining, just deliver it earlier and come back earlier."

Lin Man stopped moving, and Guan Guan waited for a long time: "Lin Man?"

"Why don't we follow the transport plane? They seem to be going to where Lin Cheng is." Lin Manxin thought that even if she went to the Reunion Base, it would not be easy to find people. It would be better to go see Lin Cheng first. Maybe her father was there too.

The transport plane roared and took off. A large white bird that ordinary people could not see flew slowly above it, keeping pace with it.

"This ugly guy flies so slowly."

Lin Man rubbed his hands together, "Yeah, I'm almost freezing to death." If you fly fast, the wind is too strong and freezing, and if you fly slowly, the wind is always blowing, which is also very cold! And the wind in the north seems to be a little colder and harder than in the south, and it feels like a knife cutting my face when it blows on me.

Fortunately, more than an hour later, the transport plane finally started moving, and light appeared ahead.

There were camps in an arc at the foot of the mountain, which seemed to form a faint encirclement line.

Lin Man watched the transport plane's indicator lights flashing as it flew lower and lower. The beam of light from its belly completely illuminated the area below, and many people ran out of the camp to meet it.

She thought that this should be the so-called Pit No. 2. It was said that people from the five major bases were stationed here to fight zombies, and this area should be the camp of the Dongyang base.

Lin Cheng shouldn't be here, he should be in the camp at the Reunion Base, so where should she look for him?

As she was thinking this, she saw several people walking out of a tent, and they were just illuminated by the light of the transport plane. Among them was a familiar figure.

Oh, what a coincidence, I found it!
