...
night.
Bai Yifan took charge of cooking and happily prepared a table full of dishes.
He used his metal-based supernatural power to change the original form of the bronze sword, turning it into a small and exquisite dagger.
The only thing that remains the same as before is that no matter how the shape of the bronze sword is changed, there will always be a symbol of the sun bird on its hilt.
This is not something Bai Yifan can remove at will; it's as if it has already grown onto the bronze metal, and there's no way to eliminate it.
Bai Yifan didn't think it was particularly ugly, so he didn't think much of it.
The main reason was that he beat up the zombie king during the day, which made him very smug and think he was still very powerful.
When cooking, I used all sorts of culinary skills.
As expected, the base commander came over to freeload again during the meal.
Unlike before, his face looked unwell; the playful expression he usually wore was gone, replaced by a somber look.
"I can't go to Kunlun Mountain for the next couple of days. There are two big snakes in the river that are not behaving properly. I have to go and deal with them. I'll leave tomorrow morning. Wait for me for a few days, and we'll go to Kunlun Mountain then."
The base commander grabbed a large piece of braised pork with his chopsticks and quickly ate the rice in his bowl.
With similar eyebrows and eyes to Leng Yebai, they both possess the same coldness when they are serious.
"A giant snake?"
Bai Yifan touched the bronze dagger strapped to his leg, and for a moment wondered why the base chief was sent over to deal with something like the giant snake.
That's a bit of a waste of talent; he might just stab him to death with a single dagger.
"Well, it's said they're almost transformed into dragons, but no one has seen it with their own eyes, so the situation is rather tricky." The base narrowed his eyes slightly and continued, "For some reason, they've suddenly started devouring zombie fish in large numbers. If this continues, they'll definitely turn into giant zombie snakes. If we don't stop them, the consequences will be unimaginable."
If a mutated animal devours a zombie animal, it doesn't necessarily mean that the mutated animal will become a zombie animal, but its personality will definitely undergo a complete transformation.
Mutant animals that devour zombie animals, even if they don't turn into zombie animals themselves, will become increasingly brutal due to the influence of the zombie virus.
Over time, devouring zombie animals will become their most common behavior, leading to addiction.
The Bai family had also heard of the two "big snakes" that the base chief mentioned. It was said that these two snakes lived in the river and were rarely seen by people, nor did they leave the river.
If they were to transform into zombie animals, the long river would become their territory, and they might even come ashore, bringing even more disaster to the people of Shanghai.
"I'll go with you."
Leng Yebai peeled a shrimp expressionlessly and placed it in Bai Xizhu's bowl. His voice was calm, yet carried a hint of determination.
"I'm going too!"
Bai Anhai also peeled a shrimp and put it in Wang Yiyun's bowl.
Seeing the zombies made Bai Anhai feel uneasy, but he still longed to become stronger so he could protect his family.
After all, he is the head of the family.
"No, I have to go alone." The base commander shook his head slightly, glanced at Leng Yebai, and smiled. "You don't need to worry too much about me. I'll go alone. If I can win, I'll fight; if I can't, I'll run. Nothing will happen. My strength speaks for itself!"
"I'll go with you."
Leng Yebai didn't waste any more words; he simply repeated the same sentence.
"Tsk tsk tsk, I never thought I'd get to enjoy my son's blessings." The base commander chuckled and clicked his tongue twice. "If you really want to go, that's fine too. We'll set off together tomorrow morning. But be prepared, you'll have to take care of my meals."
“Okay, it’s settled then. Xiao Leng and I will go help you.” Bai Anhai decisively added himself to the list.
Looking at Bai Anhai's determined gaze, the base commander could only nod helplessly.
I reluctantly agreed.
The base commander ate his food with a smile, occasionally putting a piece of food on Leng Yebai's plate.
Leng Yebai didn't refuse and ate it expressionlessly.
It was rare to see the father and son looking so warm and loving.
After dinner, the base commander lay half-reclined on the sofa and chatted with Bai Anhai for a while, mostly about Leng Yebai.
The base commander had heard these questions many times, yet he still listened to them again and again without getting tired of them.
Night was falling.
The base commander yawned, said goodbye to the Bai family, and headed towards the base building.
After seeing the base commander off, the Bai family members also fell asleep, preparing for their trip the next day.
Although it was said that Bai Anhai and Leng Yebai would go to help that night, the Bai family was still worried about letting the two of them go out alone.
It always feels strange when the family isn't together.
Therefore, when Leng Yebai said he would go too, the Bai family already imagined the whole family going together.
the next day.
early morning.
It's as hot as ever.
It's already July or August, the hottest time of the year.
Before even stepping off the bus, you could see cracks in the ground outside, and there wasn't a trace of moisture.
Bai Xizhu glanced at the time; it was only six o'clock in the morning.
"Let's go! They said we'd leave at seven, so let's head over to the base building and wait for the base commander!"
Bai Anhai stretched and lazily sat down in the passenger seat.
Bai Yifan floored the accelerator, causing the bus to shake violently before it drove towards the base building.
After the bus left, this corner of the place returned to its tranquility.
