Chapter 183, Beichen
How could I possibly forget what happened to the Yu family? The old man pursed his lips.
Indeed, he was not sure that he could completely control Si Xu, and it was very likely that if he was not careful, he would become the same as the Yu family and become a ghost under Si Xu's hands.
This is also the reason why he had the opportunity to kill Jiang Ranran directly, but he only ordered A117 to knock her unconscious.
The old man fell silent, knowing that his reminder had worked. Shen Yang silently pulled the corner of his mouth, with a hint of sarcasm.
The old man is always like this, stubborn and arbitrary. No matter what problems he encounters, he will always use the simplest and most violent means he can think of to solve the problem.
No matter what kind of feelings he had for Ranran, Ranran was still his granddaughter. Even if it was for Shen Muxin who was forced to death by the Shen family, he shouldn't kill any girl.
At such an old age, he doesn't think about enjoying his old age, nor does he expect to arrange a good life for his descendants. Instead, he is obsessed with thinking about how to scheme against his younger generations.
Grandpa is getting more and more confused.
This time, no matter what the final result is, at least the old man should learn a lesson and reflect on his actions.
…
The dungeon was not ventilated, and as soon as the door was opened, one could smell a long-accumulated musty odor.
Xie Chengzhi turned on the lights in the corridor and searched room by room according to the information given by Shen Lang. Finally, he found the girl in the dungeon at the end of the corridor.
"Rui Rui..." Unable to believe that the blood-stained and haggard girl before him was Luo Rui, Xie Chengzhi called out her name in agony. He hurriedly opened the dungeon door and ran towards the girl in the corner, "Rui Rui, how are you?"
He tried to help her up carefully, but he didn't know where to start - she was covered in blood and he couldn't see where the wound was, and he was afraid of hurting her again by accident.
Noticing his hesitation, Luo Rui narrowed her eyes and said with a half-smile: "Chengzhi, do you think I'm dirty now?"
Knowing that his hesitation had hurt his girlfriend, Xie Chengzhi no longer hesitated and hugged her tightly in his arms, choking with sobs: "I'm sorry, I was late and made you suffer so much."
The cold body fell into the warm embrace. Luo Rui closed her eyes and tried to suppress the sadness in her heart: "Chengzhi, did Chen Shuai ask you to come?"
"Yes." Xie Chengzhi's voice was a little hoarse, and he sniffed, "Knowing that I was looking for a way to save you, Shen Shuai arranged for someone to bring me here."
"Is that so?" Luo Rui chuckled softly, "You're finally here—I thought I'd never see you for the last time until I died."
"Don't say that." Xie Chengzhi hugged her tightly and said firmly, "You will live a long life, and we will grow old together. Nothing can make me let go of your hand."
After finding his girlfriend, Xie Chengzhi didn't want to stay here any longer. He picked her up and said, "Ruirui, let's go out first."
"Chengzhi." Luo Rui put her cheek against the boy's chest as they walked out, and whispered, "What should I do if I can't walk anymore?"
The boy paused, thinking he had misheard: "What?"
"My hamstrings... were severed by Shen Yang." Recalling her experience again, Luo Rui spoke calmly, as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her. "In this life, I will never be able to stand up again, I will never be able to walk like a normal person again. I will have to live my whole life relying on a wheelchair... Chengzhi, will you dislike me?"
Before she could finish, Xie Chengzhi hurriedly put her on the steps, squatted down and carefully lifted her calves.
The exposed ankles were covered in blood and the blood had already coagulated. It looked very scary at first glance.
Luo Rui still had a smile on her face: "Chengzhi, will you dislike me?"
The boy gently let go of her legs and picked her up again.
"Idiot." He gritted his teeth in pain and anger, "How could I possibly dislike you?" Barely suppressing the surging hatred, he comforted her softly, "Don't worry, even if you really can't walk, I will take care of you for the rest of my life - I will love and protect you for the rest of my life, and never leave you."
A faint light finally appeared in Luo Rui's dead eyes.
She clutched the man's clothes on his chest, and her soft sobs soon turned into loud tears.
Feeling his girlfriend's grievance, Xie Chengzhi tightened his arms around her: "It's okay, Ruirui, it's okay now."
The moment they walked out of the dungeon, soft sunlight fell on the girl's face. Luo Rui stopped crying, looked around, and then returned to Xie Chengzhi's face.
"Chengzhi, listen to me."
His girlfriend spoke in a serious tone, Xie Chengzhi stopped and looked down at her.
"After what happened this time, you should think the same as I do—Chen Lang is no match for Si Xu, and there will soon be no place for us in the Xiling base. Shen Lang came to see me in the dungeon yesterday, and he should take the opportunity of the meeting today to deal with Si Xu..."
"I know." Xie Chengzhi said, "He told me to rescue you and then take his men to an ambush near the Military Control Building and wait for his orders."
"So he already has such a plan..." Luo Rui smiled coldly, "Chengzhi, don't go."
"Hmm?" Not going? But if they don't go today, they will be disobeying Commander Shen's order, and their journey in Xiling Base will be more difficult in the future.
"Let's go back now, pack our things, and then..." The girl glanced at the dark dungeon and said word by word, "Leave Xiling Base."
"Leave Xiling Base?" After thinking about it, Xie Chengzhi understood what the girl meant and hesitated, "If you leave now, where do you want to go?"
"Go to Beichen."
"Beichen? As for the Beichen base, I remember that the Huo family was in power..." The Beichen Huo family established the Beichen base relying on Beichen City when the disaster occurred. Now it is one of the four major bases, and its influence cannot be underestimated.
"Yes, let's go to Beichen Base." Luo Rui had her own plans. "Now there's a zombie threat. Small bases can't withstand the onslaught. If we want to survive, we must first find a large base to settle down. Of the four existing bases, only Beichen Base is closest to Xiling. Let's go there first."
“…”
That woman really hooks up with everyone she meets, so dirty!
Not wanting to stay on this filthy land for even a second, Xie Chengzhi made a decisive decision and strode back with Luo Rui in his arms.
"Ruirui, let's leave Xiling and go to Beichen Base!"
The world is so vast, he doesn't believe that they will have no place to stay if they leave Xiling Base.
After he has accomplished something at Beichen Base, he will definitely return to Xiling Base and repay those people for all the insults he has suffered now!
