Chapter 18 Three in One (1)



◎ Enter V three-in-one fat chapter◎

Yan Jue didn't answer immediately, but Ling Xuting beside him tilted his head, his eyes showing a hint of emotion that broke his expressionless expression: "Yan Jue, do you know each other?"

If Ling Xuting hadn't shown a curious look, others would have really suspected that he was just an emotionless robot.

People whose expressions and eyes reveal no details are often masters who are hiding their true abilities. Scar Man also thought so before.

Therefore, even though Yan Jue seems to have very powerful supernatural powers, he always has a smile on his face, speaks gently and patiently, and his appearance alone makes him very approachable.

Dealing with such a person should be much better than dealing with someone of Ling Xuting's style.

But now... Scar Man felt that his cognition had been overturned.

Yan Jue is not as easy to fool as he seems, nor is he a good person. His smile, gentleness, and affinity are like layers of disguise. If you want to see his true nature, you must peel off the layers of the onion with tears.

"Today is our first day meeting," Yan Jue said, his smile beautiful, like suddenly bathing in sunlight. His words and smile were like a spring breeze. "But, I don't quite understand what you mean by 'Mr. Mosaic'?"

"Aren't you Teacher Mosaic?" Rong Xiao was half-believing and half-doubting, and looked at Yan Jue again with curiosity. His gaze was strong and direct, like a ray that was checking dangerous goods.

"Mosaic Teacher? What is Mosaic Teacher? Can Mosaic be a teacher?" Neither ignoring her strange question nor mocking her eccentricity, Yan Jue smiled and tilted his head, his fingers lightly touching his chin as he fell into deep thought. "Sounds interesting, though a little unbelievable."

"Mr. Mosaic is not Mosaic, he is a human." Rong Xiao knew that he had misunderstood and subconsciously waved his hand to explain, "Because I can't see his face clearly, I have always called him that."

"You don't know what he looks like?"

"I can only meet him in my dreams, but I can't see his face clearly."

After saying this, Yan Jue laughed heartily: "What a romantic story! It makes me want to enter your dream and see it."

Story...it's not a story, Teacher Mosaic really appears in her dreams!

She had asked Mr. Mosaic before why he always appeared in her dreams. Mr. Mosaic's explanation was very complicated and difficult to understand. Looking back now, it was not an explanation at all, but more like a set of seemingly reasonable perfunctory excuses... In short, he didn't know why he was in her dream.

It would be even harder for her to find the answer to something that even Mr. Mosaic couldn't figure out.

The people who rushed to the gate tried desperately to tear it down or just climb out, and messed around at the door, but in the end they failed to get out and couldn't break the door lock.

Most of those locked up are ordinary people, and even breaking down a door is a problem for them.

The factory was in chaos. Long Qingyu and his men tied up all of Scar Man's men and dragged them together. After a brief discussion, they did not kill them directly.

"We'll let the zombies in later," Shangguan Yu folded his arms and looked at them coldly. "If you're lucky enough to escape, then you're lucky. If you don't, then you can't be considered human. Anyway, you're useless while you're alive."

"Wow, Shangguan, you look like a villain." Ling Xi opened her backpack and was taking out a towel to wipe the kitchen knife in her hand. After wiping the blade clean, she calmly put it back into her bag.

The group of people who were tied up nearby were trembling with fear, afraid that those things would attack them.

"Please let us go, please!" The scarred man's men who had previously shouted that they wanted to kill and shave were now crying like quails.

There were also some people who continued to curse fearlessly, but they were silenced by Long Qingyu's glare and could only bulge their eyes in anger.

Killing is simple, but also not simple.

The simplicity is that it is easy to kill a person and there are many ways to do it.

But the psychological impact of murder can bring up many complex issues.

Long Qingyu would never allow Shangguan and others to kill people at will. He would only condone the existence of "killing" when their lives were threatened and it was necessary to protect themselves.

However, they have not encountered such a situation so far. Most of the things that require ruthless and heavy-handed measures will be handled by Long Qingyu himself, and he will use the method he thinks is most appropriate to solve them.

Shangguan Yu is not very old. If he hadn't encountered the end of the world, he would probably be sitting in a university classroom, basking in the sunlight from the window and quietly listening to the lecture.

He was a very smart child, and the hand that was supposed to hold the pen should not be stained with the blood of a living person.

"Stop shouting and be quiet." Tian Yichuang was annoyed by their noise and released a fireball as a warning, and the group of people fell silent.

The scarred man who was knocked unconscious suddenly opened his eyes and lay motionless.

He just lay on the ground for a long time to rest, just to find an opportunity to kill by surprise.

Driven by his angry instinct, he glared with bloodshot eyes, aiming to kill Rong Xiao to scare him away.

She was facing away from him, making it difficult for him to deal with the situation. Moreover, she had injured him time and again. The whole thing started to get out of control after she appeared!

The stones on the ground suddenly floated in the air, but they were only about four or five fist-sized stones and did not look threatening at all.

But even this not-so-terrifying attack had already used up all of Scar Man's current strength.

If he hadn't been injured, he would have been more adept at manipulating larger objects as weapons.

In the entire base, he is the only person with special abilities. Everyone obeys his orders. More and more subordinates join in, and he soon establishes his own base in this factory.

There was a shortage of supplies in the end times, and after searching hundreds of nearby stores for whatever he could find, he came up with a new plan.

They did not touch those with highly aggressive superpowers. Those with spatial superpowers and ordinary people who were strong and able to work were all captured by him and his men. These people were forced to work for the factory and were given a bite to eat every day. After work, they were locked up in the warehouse and could not move around freely. It was no different from imprisonment.

"I won't let you go!!" As the scarred man roared, all the stones flew towards Rong Xiao's head.

The moment the stone floated up, Rong Xiao felt something unusual in the air behind her. Just as she was about to dodge, a warm hand came close to her shoulder and a gentle voice whispered in her ear, "Don't move. Trust me."

The familiar sense of security sank into her mind like a spell. Rong Xiao suddenly thought of Teacher Mosaic. The people around her seemed to have his shadow and scent.

The quiet surroundings seemed like the familiar city in her dreams, with no one else but them.

Just when she was about to fight back, that voice was like a gentle hand that smoothed out the hostility that had risen up in her heart, making everything peaceful and calm in an instant.

The box that was on the ground floated up into the air, and the rocks that were thrown at it made a loud bang. After a few hits, it fell back to the ground, shaking like an inflatable toy that suddenly lost air.

The stone shook and struggled on the ground for a few times, and finally stopped moving. The box floating in the air like a shield sank back to the ground and folded up.

"Did you make the box float up?" Rong Xiao saw the second half out of the corner of his eye and didn't let her move. He didn't tell her not to look back.

This new and strange ability made her feel like she had discovered a new game, full of freshness, and she stared at Yan Jue's fingers.

Yan Jue's fingers had distinct joints, and even a random movement exuded elegance and beauty. With just a slight swipe of his index finger, the hidden bullets immediately flew out from the bodies of the tied-up people, obediently gathering into a pile above his palm.

"We've got the stuff, it's time for us to leave." Ling Xuting sighed helplessly, as if this kind of thing was nothing new to him.

The light in the eyes looking at him was more beautiful than the stars and the moon tonight. Yan Jue was very satisfied with this look. When Rong Xiao reached out to touch the bullets, he let the pile of bullets float in the air and formed the shape of a Ferris wheel.

"Wow, so awesome, so awesome!!" Rong Xiao became excited and reached out to grab Yan Jue's fingers, his eyes lighting up like a child seeing a toy for the first time.

Yan Jue looked at Rong Xiao seriously and didn't respond to Ling Xuting at all.

Ling Xuting's gaze moved down to where Rong Xiao was pulling Yan Jue's fingers. His brows knitted together uncontrollably, and he silently and secretly studied the expressions of his companions.

It was like guarding against a time bomb that could explode at any time. The bomb was Yan Jue, and he was worried that Rong Xiao would suddenly be affected by the explosion.

Fortunately, everything is normal, even particularly harmonious.

The guy who usually yelled that he would skin anyone who touched Yan Jue actually spread his palms wider, deliberately using the control of bullets to attract Rong Xiao's attention, as if he was not afraid of being touched by her at all.

Changed his gender? Ling Xuting couldn't understand.

No, he must have some plan. Anyway, he never asked Yan Jue about his plans, and he would not interfere as long as it was not too extreme.

Besides, using bullets to amuse girls doesn't seem like a bad thing.

The two of them happily played over there. Ling Xuting waited patiently for five minutes, then couldn't help but come to Yan Jue and remind him again, "It's time to go."

Suddenly, a cool breeze blew from behind, blowing Yan Jue's heated brain like a steamed bun thrown out on a winter night.

He reluctantly replied vaguely, "Okay, okay, I'll leave right away."

Ling Xuting raised his hand and patted his shoulder, his face expressionless again: "What are you doing with the bullets? We don't have any guns. Give them back to them, and we will go back immediately."

Yan Jue lowered his head to look at the gun in Rong Xiao's hand, and flicked his fingers lightly, causing all the bullets to fly one by one into Rong Xiao's pockets.

"I'll give you all the bullets." Yan Jue paused, then suddenly thought of something and asked with a smile, "Can you use a gun?"

Rong Xiao raised the gun casually and shook his head: "No."

The muzzle of the gun was still pointed at him defenselessly. Rong Xiao's action scared Tian Yichuang. Just as he was about to go up to warn him, Yan Jue had already turned the muzzle of the gun away.

He didn't touch the gun, but just twisted his fingers slightly on it, and the gun seemed to come alive, obediently pointing the muzzle to the side.

"Ah, it was you just now..." Thinking about how the muzzle of the gun suddenly changed direction after he picked up Brother Rong's gun, Rong Xiao suspected that it was also done by Yan Jue.

Yan Jue smiled and didn't deny it. He gently pushed Rong Xiao's hand with his fingers, signaling her to pull the trigger and point the gun at the enemy in front of her: "Next time I have the chance, I will teach you how to use a gun."

Unlike the smell of other people, Rong Xiao smelled a faint pleasant scent on him, a bit like a flower, but she couldn't remember the name.

"OK!"

Yan Jue, Ling Xuting and Rong Xiao seemed to be divided into another space. The others were anxious and worried, but it seemed that a game had just ended here and they were having an excited discussion.

Yan Jue, who was about to say something, discovered that the light behind Rong Xiao was blocked by someone. A man who was not tall but had a very sharp and ostentatious aura was standing there like a door god.

Tian Yichuan glared at Yan Jue with his eyes wide open and his chin raised fiercely: "Am I familiar with you?"

"Whether it's friends or lovers, doesn't the first step start with getting to know each other?" Yan Jue smiled politely, but every word was pierced. "Wouldn't it be easier to get to know each other by just chatting?"

"Old Tian, ​​let's go, stop talking nonsense." Ling Xi, with the same unfriendly look, led Rong Xiao away, and also dragged away Shangguan Huai, who was watching the gossip with great interest.

Long Qingyu pointed the muzzle of his gun toward the sky, nodded gratefully to Yan Jue, and led a group of people to the gate, ready to use bullets to directly break the door lock.

Before he could make a move, the big lock that was locked tightly opened with a clang.

Not only that, Suo obediently tilted his head and rolled into the grass beside him with an expression of hiding his achievements and fame.

Rong Xiao touched the iron gate in surprise, then remembered something and turned to look at Yan Jue, only to find that he was smiling at her.

Those curved eyes clearly acknowledged everything.

Rubbing his hands, Rong Xiao tried to push the door, and it creaked open.

The group of people who had been locked up in the factory for a long time finally saw the light of day again. They all pushed and shoved their way out, as if they were afraid that they would be caught again if they were a step slower.

Before leaving, they thanked Long Qingyu gratefully, then turned and ran into the darkness of the night.

Rong Xiao looked at everyone who left with a confused look. Some were crying, some were laughing, but without exception, everyone said thank you to them.

"Rong Xiao," Tian Yichuan patted her shoulder and lowered his voice seriously, "Don't trust people so easily. That guy just now clearly had bad intentions."

"...Huh?" After thinking for a moment, Rong Xiao asked in confusion, "Does he have any conspiracy?"

"Hmph, you look like a bad guy who cheats on little girls. You'd better be careful next time and don't chat with others so casually." With the care of an old father, Tian Yichuang wanted to describe it more directly, but Rong Xiao was too pure, as clean as clear water. How could he bear to add impurities in it?

After thinking about it, he held back his words and just repeatedly reminded her not to lower her guard against others.

"But he doesn't look like a bad guy."

"The bad guys can't be seen." Tian Yichuang glanced in the direction of the factory gate. Yan Jue and the others hadn't come out yet, and no one knew what they were still doing inside.

"If he's a good guy, we can be friends; if he's a bad guy, I...I'll beat him up!" Rong Xiao imitated Tian Yichuan and patted his shoulder, "Brother Chuan, I'm not a kid anymore."

Not a child...but looks even more troublesome than a child.

Tian Yichuang tilted his head to look at Shangguan Yu, who was not much older than Rong Xiao, and let out a deep breath.

Shangguan Yu frowned alertly: "What do you mean? Why are you looking at me?"

"I wish you could give one tenth of your brain to Rong Xiao." Tian Yichuang's old father sighed.

"Haha," Shangguan Yu continued with a smile, "If we can really split it up, of course Brother Chuan will be the first person I think of if there's such a good thing."

"You little bastard!!"

"Wait a minute." A voice came from the factory gate.

Ling Xuting and Yan Jue were each carrying two boxes, with cardboard sticking out of the box openings, as if they had been opened.

They had already sorted out the supplies inside just now, and also went to the small warehouse next to it to see if there was anything they could take. They only took what they could use.

"You have guns, maybe you can use this." Ling Xuting handed Long Qingyu a box containing newly found bullets. All the pistols they had just confiscated could be used.

Long Qingyu didn't rush to take the box: "Is there anything you need? We can exchange it."

He glanced at the box with a puzzled look, and Ling Xuting opened it to show him: "There are no traps, and the bullets are really useless."

Ling Xi laughed and explained, "Brother Long, that's not what I meant. You guys helped us just now, so it's not good to take your bullets now. We can exchange them for something else."

"We don't have guns, and we won't need them," Ling Xuting paused and continued, "We don't need any other supplies for the time being. Thank you."

He has an expressionless face but speaks very politely, which gives people a sense of contrast and division.

The four guns were all given to Long Qingyu. The others didn't know how to use guns and were not used to them. Their accuracy was not good and they could easily hurt their own people. Everyone preferred to use their own weapons.

After hesitating for a moment, Long Qingyu opened the paper box and looked at the type of bullets, then took out a gun that matched the gun and said, "I'll give you this gun."

Ling Xuting didn't answer, but glanced to Yan Jue on his right: "We probably won't be able to use the gun."

Yan Jue had moved to Rong Xiao's side without knowing when. The two were happily chatting. He took a moment out of his busy schedule to say, "Don't be polite. Rong Xiao has already exchanged something with me. I'll give you the bullets."

Rong Xiao exchanged something?

What?

At some point she took out a few candies with cute grape patterns on them from her body and was stuffing them into Yan Jue's hand.

A few fruit candies for a box of bullets...

This is a super good deal with no loss and only profit.

Yan Jue smiled brightly, and Rong Xiao smiled several times brighter. He said that Rong Xiao wanted to exchange candy with him. As a result, Yan Jue took out a few bags of snacks and soda from the box he had just moved out, and filled Rong Xiao's pockets and hat with them.

His companions were sending out supplies without restraint. Ling Xuting said nothing, but glanced at them helplessly and reminded them, "We should go back."

"Okay, okay." He responded with his mouth, and his hands did not stop. In the end, Yan Juelin stuffed some more things into Rong Xiao's arms.

"I'll give you the bullets." Seeing that Long Qingyu didn't take the bullet, Ling Xuting placed the box at his feet. "In this situation, we should help each other. There's no need to be too picky."

The lid of the cardboard box was slightly open, and there were at least thirty or forty bullets inside. Even if other people didn't have a gun, they would keep it for themselves in case it came in handy in the future.

Ling Xuting actually left it all to them so easily.

Even after being dragged far away, Yan Jue still tried to turn around and wave at Rong Xiao with a smile. He could still hear the chirping sounds until he was completely blocked by the buildings. It took a long time before it became completely quiet.

The noise made tonight was too loud, and a few wandering zombies were attracted to the area, hanging around trying to catch someone for a midnight snack.

Tian Yichuang didn't give it this chance and quieted it down with a hammer.

Looking back at the open door of the factory, Long Qingyu frowned and hesitated for a moment, then went back to close the door again.

"The rest is up to God."

The mission to rescue Shangguan Huai went more smoothly than planned. We thought it would take a whole night, but we didn't expect that after everything was resolved, it was still dark.

Long Qingyu led them back to the main road. There were more zombies, but most of them had mutated for a long time. They moved very slowly and did not need to attack, just avoid them.

After walking about three kilometers, a villa area came into view. It looked like someone was living there.

I just don’t know if the owner of the house has turned into a zombie now.

"Let's rest here for tonight," Long Qingyu led them to a house that looked relatively safe. "After you've rested, we'll think about our next plan."

"Great, we finally have a bed to sleep on!!" Tian Yichuang and Ling Xi were very excited. They took the initiative to unlock the door, but after fiddling with it for a few times, they found that the door was too strong and could not be opened at all.

I put a flashlight against the window and found that the house was very clean and tidy, with a sense of life. It seemed that the possibility of zombies in the house was very low.

After checking around the villa, Lingxi found that the garage next to it was not closed and she could go directly into the house from the garage.

Long Qingyu led the charge with a gun, Ling Xi and Shangguan Yu followed closely behind, Tian Yichuang was in charge of the rear guard, and Rong Xiao and Shangguan Huai were protected in the middle.

Fortunately, there were no zombies in the house. It seemed that after the end of the world, the owner of the house ate up all the stored supplies and left. He didn't even have time to throw away the garbage in the trash can, which emitted a foul stench.

Lingxi pinched her nose and cleaned up briefly. After the others had thoroughly checked the villa, they could finally sit down and eat something.

After checking the house, Tian Yichuang hurried to the landline phone next to him, picked up the receiver and listened, but found that there was no sound and put it down in disappointment.

Everyone was finally free. Ling Xi chose a seat next to Shangguan Huai, patted his shoulder, and said solemnly: "Da Huai, thank you, thank you for being captured in my place. Fortunately, you are okay."

Shangguan Huai, who was eating, smiled vaguely and replied, "I'm really fine."

"When I went there, he was still eating melon seeds and drinking beer." Rong Xiao added in time.

Tian Yichuan laughed and said, "Have you gained weight? I haven't seen you for a few days, and your face has become rounder. Did you eat more than us when you were locked up?"

When I was at the base, apart from a few threats, my life was pretty good.

He had a good relationship with the people who were guarding him. At night, they would have supper, drink beer and play cards together. Three meals a day were also taken care of specially. In a sense... all he had was a bed to sleep in, and he felt like he was at home.

As if being stabbed in the knee, Shangguan Huai lowered his head and silently gnawed on the compressed biscuits. Suddenly, he remembered something and asked, "Where is my brother?"

"I just found a basement with some strange things in it. He's researching it," Tian Yichuan waved his hand nonchalantly. "Don't worry, I've checked every corner and cabinet in that room. It's absolutely safe. There's only one entrance, so there won't be any problems."

"Sister Xi, do you want to eat potato chips? Yan Jue said that these cucumber-flavored potato chips are delicious, really delicious!" After just taking a bite, Rong Xiao was eager to share the good stuff with Ling Xi.

"Brother Long, this beef jerky is delicious too! Yan Jue said eating it can help you build muscle!"

"Brother Chuan, are you drinking this... Yan Jue said this..."

This time, without waiting for Rong Xiao to finish, Tian Yichuang snatched the can from her hand and examined it carefully with a flashlight.

Sure enough, he said that it didn't look like a drink, it was clearly a bottle of beer.

Fortunately, there was only one bottle. I don’t know what Yan Jue’s intention was, but he actually stuffed wine into Rong Xiao’s mouth.

Rong Xiao stared at the small jar in Tian Yichuang's hand, like a poor puppy waiting beside his master while he eats, which made Tian Yichuang feel guilty.

He opened the beer and handed it to Rong Xiao: "Want to try it? Only a small sip is allowed."

"I want to!" Rong Xiao took it like a treasure and took a sip carefully. His facial features instantly tightened. "It tastes so bad, like the taste of a sewer."

Tian Yichuang laughed heartily and took over the beer smoothly: "This is not a good thing, that guy Yan Jue..."

"Yan Jue said this doesn't taste good, but I can give it to you."

“…”

"Brother Long, would you like a sip too?" Tian Yichuang handed him the beer.

Long Qingyu pushed it away: "Thank you, I have to keep watch tonight and won't drink."

Thinking of what Yan Jue said, Tian Yichuang felt angry, but after drinking the bottle of beer, his mood suddenly became unusually calm.

Before the end of the world, he often met up with colleagues and friends for dinner and drinks whenever he had nothing to do. He never cared about that simple and ordinary life.

After the outbreak of the virus, those seemingly ordinary, repetitive and boring days became extremely precious to Tian Yichuang.

It's been a long time since I've sat down and relaxed with a beer like this.

Tian Yichuan smiled and took another sip: "Asshole."

After eating and drinking, Ling Xi breathed a sigh of relief. Suddenly, she thought of something and looked at Rong Xiao mysteriously: "By the way, Xiao Xiao, you are very skilled, aren't you? What did you do before?"

Rong Xiao's performance today completely refreshed Ling Xi's perception of him. The situation was urgent just now and she had no time to gossip, so now was a good opportunity to find out.

"I...I don't know either." After saying that, Rong Xiao blinked in confusion.

She has lost all her memories, what can she know?

Tian Yichuang drank the last sip of wine, threw it accurately into the trash can, and was about to join the conversation.

"What's that sound?" Long Qingyu suddenly stopped all movements and tilted his ear to listen in the direction of the window.

"I...the sound of throwing away garbage?" Tian Yichuang asked blankly.

Long Qingyu shook his head and signaled everyone to turn off their flashlights. He stood up and leaned against the window, lifting a corner of the curtain. Several figures moved outside, and it seemed that their target was also the villa where they were.

Ling Xi immediately covered Rong Xiao's mouth and shook her head to signal her not to make a sound. The others stopped talking, gestured a few times, and nodded in tacit understanding the next second.

After exchanging glances, Shangguan Huai immediately tiptoed to the basement to find Shangguan Yu.

Tian Yichuang stayed behind to guard the road they had to take to get out of the basement.

Long Qingyu, who had a gun, went to the back door first to check to make sure there was no ambush, intending to find a suitable evacuation route.

Ling Xi was holding Rong Xiao's hand. Her task was to ensure that the little tail would not get lost and that everyone could leave as quickly as possible during the evacuation.

Shangguan Huai and Shangguan Yu moved quickly. As soon as they came out of the basement, the sound of the door lock unlocking came from the front door.

Wait…not breaking the lock, but unlocking it?

Could it be that the owner of the house has returned?

With a click, the door opened. Although there were several figures coming in, this group of people was very quiet. Apart from the rubbing of clothes, there was almost no noise.

"I said there was no one there," a young and proud voice sounded. It must be a young boy. "If there were people, how could there be no light or sound at all?"

"Think a little harder, that rusty brain of yours," a familiar voice echoed, and footsteps reached the house. "See that garbage on the floor? There's no odor, and the potato chip crumbs are still crispy. How could they have been left there so long ago?"

“…”

"The head isn't for decoration. There's no harm in using it occasionally," the voice said, speaking in a completely unfamiliar tone after just parting. "I'm really worried about your head... Zombies would be disappointed and shake their heads if they opened it."

"...Don't think I don't know you're insulting me!!"

"If you really don't know, I'd doubt what you can do in our team... cheer for us?"

“!!!”

Long Qingyu and others who had not yet had time to evacuate through the back door also heard the voices. They looked at each other, obviously a little surprised.

"Okay, stop arguing and don't disturb others so late at night." Ling Xuting's silent reminder came, and the tense conversation came to an abrupt end.

The younger boy kept silent. Yan Jue propped his head with his hands and muttered quietly, "It's late at night, the only people who can make noise are zombies."

"Maybe the group that entered the room earlier hasn't left yet," Ling Xuting gestured for everyone to split up. "If others don't want us to stay with them, let's go somewhere else."

"Understood." Except for Yan Jue, everyone else responded to Ling Xuting's words without hesitation and went to check the situation of the house separately.

Long Qingyu was still hiding near the back door, hesitating whether to leave. But it was late at night, and if they moved to another place, who knew what they would encounter in the house.

They spent a lot of time cleaning and inspecting the villa, and if they moved to another place, they would have to waste time doing the same thing.

"That group of people haven't left yet, they should..." Yan Jue spoke with a smile, as if he was coming towards the back.

Long Qingyu opened the back door in advance so that he could evacuate silently if the situation got bad.

But when Tian Yichuang reached out to open the door, it suddenly closed automatically with a click, and the door lock twisted twice by itself, and something in the air suddenly froze.

They had met Ling Xuting before, and he didn't look like a sinister villain, but they had never seen the others, so Long Qingyu had to be extremely alert.

Still at the corner, Yan Jue hadn't appeared yet, but a voice had already drifted over: "Rong Xiao~~"

Discovered.

Everything was so clear that there was no need for any extra struggle. Ling Xi released her hand that was covering Rong Xiao's mouth and grinned.

Rong Xiao still remembered what she said not to speak, so he didn't say anything, but just raised his hand and waved it to say hello.

As soon as he turned the corner, Yan Jue saw Rong Xiao squatting on the ground with a smile on his face, as bright and warm as the sun that suddenly emerged from the clouds.

"I knew it was you!" Yan Jue automatically treated them as old acquaintances.

It would be more accurate to say that it is Rong Xiao rather than treating them as old acquaintances.

As soon as Tian Yichuang saw Yan Jue's smile, he felt that this person was not simple. His friendly expression was like a mask, and only when he saw Rong Xiao would there be a hint of real kindness and friendliness in his eyes.

While thinking, Tian Yichuang turned his head to look at Rong Xiao who had already gone to say hello, and his expression became more serious.

The speculation in my heart became more and more firm. Yan Jue must be secretly plotting against Rong Xiao!

As long as you talk to Rong Xiao, you can find that she is different from ordinary people. It seems that she is naturally not defensive or hostile towards others. She says whatever she thinks. She is simple, harmless, and good-looking. She is also easily interested in interesting things and people.

She had previously said that his fireball was fun, but now her interest has shifted to Yan Jue.

This guy Yan Jue... is good-looking, has a gentle and pleasant voice, and speaks in an interesting way. It seems that he can always grasp Rong Xiao's interests and novelty.

If he wanted to trick Rong Xiao into doing something, it would be difficult to do. Tian Yichuang was even worried that Rong Xiao would be unhappy because of their excessive interference.

Since the end of the world, Tian Yichuang has met all kinds of people, and he never believes in superficial things.

"It's you, what a coincidence," Ling Xuting took the initiative to step forward and greet Long Qingyu, "We just want to find a place to stay for one night and leave early tomorrow morning. If it's not convenient for you, we can move to another house."

Everyone had already come in, and a large box of bullets had been left for them. Long Qingyu had no choice but to clean up the garbage in the living room and leave half of the area for them.

Ling Xuting and Yan Jue had already met all the members of their team, but it was the first time that Long Qingyu and others saw Yan Jue and Ling Xuting's other teammates.

Not sure if it was out of disbelief or habit, but they checked the house again before returning to the living room with peace of mind.

"We don't need the rooms upstairs." Ling Xuting took the initiative.

Long Qingyu felt embarrassed to take all of them, so he shook his head and said, "It's okay, there are four rooms upstairs, we can just use two."

There is a bed in every room. After running around for a long time, it is a luxury to have a comfortable place to lie down and have a good sleep.

There are quite a few people in Ling Xuting's team, five in total.

Although the villa is quite spacious, the living room seems a bit crowded when ten people suddenly move in.

They said they didn't need the room upstairs, and they really didn't. One of the tall and strong men went upstairs and brought down a few quilts, then spread them casually on the floor as their beds for tonight.

"Old Wei, give everyone some food." Ling Xuting said to the tall and strong man.

Long Qingyu and the others were too embarrassed to go upstairs, so they found a few benches downstairs to sit on. There was not even a sofa to sit on.

After all, they have reserved the rooms upstairs for them, so they might end up sleeping on the sofa.

The room was eerily quiet. Even though there were ten people there, no one had to speak. The overly quiet atmosphere was filled with a faint awkwardness.

"Hey? Why are there fruit candies?" The boy, who had been scolded by Yan Jue as soon as he entered the room, came close to Yan Jue and stared at the candy in his hand that he was about to open. "You are too much! I just had low blood sugar and almost fainted. I asked you if you had anything to eat, and you said no!!!"

Yan Jue was unmoved and put the candy into his mouth: "I forgot just now."

"You have another one, give it to me!" The boy spread his hands righteously.

"No, go to bed early. You can dream about anything." Yan Jue took the candy out of his pocket and put it into the inner pocket of his jacket in front of the boy, making his attitude clear.

"Be quiet, there are other people here. Don't disturb them from resting." Ling Xuting leaned back on the sofa and took out an MP3 player from his backpack.

Long Qingyu and the others were greatly shocked and stared at the electronic product with wide eyes.

Several months have passed since the apocalypse. Cell phones and other devices have long run out of battery, the entire city’s power supply system is basically paralyzed, and all the electronic products that people once relied on have turned into a pile of waste.

Ling Xuting was about to put his headphones in when he paused, "Don't worry about us if you want to rest. We'll leave at daybreak and lock the doors securely. Don't worry. As for the night watch, we'll be there even if you have someone else. If you trust us, you can go upstairs and sleep. If you're worried, you can leave someone behind."

After saying this, Ling Xuting still held the earphones in his hand without plugging them in. He waited politely for Long Qingyu to nod in response before he nodded shyly, put them in, and leaned back on the sofa, closing his eyes to rest.

"Hey, stingy guy, give me a piece of fruit candy. I eat steamed buns every day and my mouth has no taste at all." Seeing that Ling Xuting fell asleep, the boy squirmed and leaned next to Yan Jue, stretching out his hand to ask for something.

Yan Jue folded his arms, using his posture to cover the inner pocket of his heart: "Why eat candy so late at night? Just drink some water and go to bed. You don't have to worry about choking to death."

"You..." The boy was so angry that his hair almost stood up. He raised his fist and heard a weak and faint sound behind him.

"Do you want some candy? I have some."
