Chapter 6363
After Xue Ling came back, the team held a brief meeting, and then a group of people, armed with weapons, escorted two specially brought doctors and headed to the ancient city of Long'an.
Their mission is to rescue Academician Ji Shiping and ensure his safety.
Wen Yi also expressed her desire to go with the team. She couldn't wait to meet Academician Ji Shiping's research team and discuss new discoveries about meteorites and zombie viruses with them.
It would be nice to take a look at the relevant information first.
But her request to join the team was rejected by the team's commander-in-chief. The commander-in-chief understood her urgency, but thought that now was not a good time.
Nowadays, in the ancient city of Longan, one more person makes it more dangerous.
Another researcher named Yang Luo in the team, who was not on Wen Yi's side, criticized her:
"Dr. Wen, it's not good to be too eager for quick success. If you run over now, will you be able to get Academician Ji to answer your questions?"
"I suggest that we wait and see here for a few more days, until Academician Ji's condition stabilizes and we leave the ancient city, and then we can go to a safe place to do research better, right?" Yang Luo said righteously.
Wen Yi didn't even look at him, but continued to say to the commander-in-chief: "If we need to stay in Long'an Ancient City for a long time, then I request to enter Long'an Ancient City at the latest in two days."
It is also difficult to be the overall commander. The researchers who came here belong to two small groups. We need to treat them equally and it would be best if they could act together.
One of the parties wanted to enter the ancient city, and the other party had to stay at the station. It was not convenient for him to send only one party to contact Academician Ji's research team first.
So he didn't give a definite answer, only saying, "We have to wait until the team comes back to see the specific situation. You two are senior researchers, and I am responsible for your safety. I can't put you in danger rashly."
Wen Yi came out of the temporary tent and saw Xue Ling strolling nearby.
Walking to Wen Yi's side, Xue Ling showed her tablet, which read: "Sister Yi, if the conductor disagrees, I can take you there in two days. I know the route well."
If Wen Yi was alone, she was very confident that she could get the person there safely.
The tent was not soundproof, and Xue Ling, who was walking outside, could hear clearly what they said inside.
Although they had only known each other for a short time, Xue Ling already knew Wen Yi's character very well.
Once she makes a decision, no one can stop her. She is as crazy as Wen Jiuze at heart, and she is really willing to drive her own car into the ancient city of Long'an.
She felt the need to coax him. Sure enough, after hearing her words, Wen Yi's cold expression softened a little.
But Yang Luo, who followed over, was very tactless. He came over to look at Xue Ling's tablet and pointed at it, saying:
"Xue Ling, I have something to say to you. You can't just rely on your own achievements to openly disobey the command. Zombies also have to abide by the rules..."
Xue Ling suddenly made a ferocious expression and rushed in front of Yang Luo with his teeth and claws bared.
Yang Luo was so frightened that he stepped back suddenly, and said in a horrified voice:
"You! What are you doing? You want to attack me! If you dare to attack me, you will be committing a crime, and Wen Yi can't protect you!"
Xue Ling frightened the man so much that his face turned pale. He withdrew his hand and poked the tablet, saying:
"I was just joking with you, why are you so scared? Do you have any opinion about me?"
Researcher Yang's face turned green.
He had seen Xue Ling before and he seemed to be very easy to talk to, doing his tasks conscientiously and usually just sitting there quietly.
Even though it's a zombie, it looks pretty harmless. I never expected it to have this side.
Wen Yi said calmly at this time: "If you accidentally turned into a zombie, who knows which zombie infected you, there are so many zombies around the camp. Anyway, it can't be done by Xue Ling, what do you think?"
Understanding the threat in her words and seeing that there were few people around, Yang Luo immediately ran away, staying away from the two of them.
Seeing him running away, Xue Ling raised the tablet and read aloud more than ten "Haha".
Wen Yi also curled her lips: "Let's go, stay away from this idiot next time you see him. His stupidity is contagious and harder to cure than a virus."
Half of the team that entered the ancient city of Longan returned at night, and the latest news they brought was that Academician Ji's condition was very serious and he could not be moved for the time being, and he could not withstand the bumpy road. He currently needed to be monitored by instruments in a medical vehicle.
They have to stay in the ancient city of Longan for at least half a month. Whether they can leave later depends on the situation.
They cannot stay in this garrison for long, so the commander-in-chief will have to consider stationing a large force in the ancient city of Long'an and arrange personnel to clean up the zombies around.
Wen Yi got what she wanted, but Yang Luo was not happy. He went to the commander-in-chief alone to make suggestions, but his suggestions were not accepted. He had to reluctantly hold his nose and go into the ancient city with Wen Yi and the others.
The majority of the troops will move into the ancient city of Long An.
Xue Ling did not participate in the zombie cleanup operation in the ancient city. Instead, he stayed at a temporary base outside the ancient city with several remaining warriors.
Before Wen Yi left, she reminded her to wear her warrior clothes properly and not to wander around in the ancient city. It would be terrible if a warrior who was cleaning up the zombies didn't see her carefully and cleaned her up as an ordinary zombie.
Xue Ling: “…”
Good hell assumption.
Xue Ling was still very obedient and did not join in the fun. Apart from her mission, she paid special attention to rest and often found a place to lie down.
Because lying in the camp would make no sound and might accidentally scare others, Xue Ling specifically found a place to lie down that was a little further away from the camp and had a better view.
Lying down all day, she seemed to be back to the three years when she was alone. There was nothing to do and no one would look for her. She could only watch the ants crawling on the tree in boredom.
Her calmness lasted only until the sound of cars broke the silence.
Some people came into the camp, and Xue Ling could hear the noise from a distance.
There were quite a few people coming. She stood up and looked over, and saw a person next to the car.
He looked around the camp as if looking for something.
These are nine pieces of news.
According to the plan, shouldn't he still be completing the mission in Donghai City at this time? Why did he come straight here!
Wen Jiuze also noticed her and walked straight towards her.
Because he had no expression on his face, and the way he approached quickly without saying a word was a bit scary.
Xue Ling also quickened her pace, but her movement trajectory was different from Wen Jiuze's. She went straight to the car where she was before.
News 9: What does that mean? Why is she running?
If zombies could laugh, he would have almost laughed out of anger. He turned around and followed Xue Ling's car.
Just as he walked to the side of the car, Xue Ling came down with something in his hand.
It was a red corsage. She held the corsage, shook it as if to show off, and then pinned it on Wen Jiuze's chest.
Wen Jiuze was filled with anger, but was blocked by her strange behavior.
He stared at the red corsage on his chest for a while, took out his tablet which he hadn't used for a long time, and asked Xue Ling the first question after they met: "Groom's corsage?"
"What does it mean to give me a groom's boutonniere? We're getting married now?"
Xue Ling: “…”
"This is what I got when I was awarded after completing the mission. It represents honor, not a groom's boutonniere!" Xue Ling explained speechlessly.
The first time she saw Wen Jiuze, she knew that he must be angry, so she immediately decided to use this to coax him.
After hearing this explanation, Wen Jiuze felt a little regretful and his interest in the corsage greatly decreased.
"They just use a little red flower to trick you into doing a job?" Wen Jiuze said.
Xue Ling: "There are also rewards, such as rice, flour, grain, oil, candy, and canned food."
"Where's the stuff?"
Wen Jiuze crossed his arms, looking very unhappy that he had been deceived. Xue Ling did not dare to mention giving the things to Wen Yi.
"What about you? How was your mission in Donghai City? Why did you come back so early?" Xue Ling tried to change the subject.
Wen Jiuze's tablet reading: "The mission is too simple, I will come back after completing it."
Captain Shen Zhang had come to see Wen Jiuze to discuss some arrangements, but when he heard this, he stopped with a complicated expression.
Xue Ling also saw him and waved to greet him. She felt that the mission might not be as simple as Wen Jiuze said. Captain Shen Zhang looked ten years older than before.
Captain Shen Zhang said, "We have been resting for a while and are ready to enter the ancient city. What are your plans, Wen Jiuze?"
Although he already knew that he would stay here with Xue Ling, he still had to ask.
As expected, Wen Jiuze used his tablet to tell him succinctly: "Stay."
Shen Zhang didn't understand why he didn't speak when he could, but he didn't point it out. He nodded to show that he understood, then turned and left.
They rushed along the way at full speed without any rest. If the whole team was not composed of warriors in good physical condition, several of them would have fallen down along the way.
Even so, Wen Jiuze still complained that they were too slow to give up.
Xue Ling approached and listened to the nine stories. He lowered the volume of his tablet and asked quietly, "Did you get your medal?"
Wen Jiuze: "...No."
He didn't even think about it at the time.
But he looked at Xue Ling twice more and immediately understood what she meant. He narrowed his eyes and asked her, "Do you want to exchange your corsage for my medal of honor?"
Xue Ling's eyes widened: "How could that be!"
If Wen Jiuze didn't know her too well, he would have really thought that she didn't want it anymore.
Looking closely, I could see that her eyes were a little guilty and evasive, moving from his nose to behind his ear.
"I don't have a medal for now, but I have this." Wen Jiuze took out a small red box, "I brought it back from Donghai City."
He went to Donghai City, and apart from the things on his mission list, the only thing he took away was this.
Xue Ling didn't pick up the box immediately.
It looked too much like a ring box.
If a box looks like a ring box, it most likely contains a ring.
Xue Ling: “…”
She looked at Wen Jiuze, then at the box that seemed particularly small in his palm, and slowly stretched out her hand.
When she took the box and opened it, Xue Ling thought, would Wen Jiuze propose to her right away?
She nervously opened the box, revealing a ruby necklace.
Xue Ling: “…”
Wen Jiuze waited for a while, and seeing that she was looking at the necklace without moving, he asked, "Why don't you react? Don't you like it?"
Xue Ling: "How could that be? I like it very much. Wow, it's so beautiful. Thank you."
The sound of the tablet has never been flatter.
Wen Jiuze asked, "You don't think it's a ring, do you?"
Xue Ling suddenly got angry and punched him. I guessed it, so why expose it?
Wen Jiuze grabbed her hand and said, "None of the rings over there are good-looking. This necklace is the most expensive."
At that time, he looked at the ring counter for a long time, but what he thought of was Xue Ling's increasingly thin fingers.
Once she puts the ring on, she will probably be able to see more clearly how the small circle gradually becomes wider on her finger.
So he just stood at the ring counter and looked for a while and then left, and finally chose this necklace.
