Chapter 178 Just a Title



Chang Ying selected three squad leaders and led his troops into Fuyang.

Among them is Wang Tie.

Wei Xiyin said: "If we find them, we will tell them that we have news about Princess Zhongshan and ask them to come to the mine." They were doing useless work anyway, so they might as well stay in the mine to help.

"Yes!" Wang Tie looked up at the girl and left.

Now the work in the quarry on the mountain is managed by the new people. Since they were incorporated into the tribe, they have been promoted to sergeants after the operation in Anping County.

Commander Chang did not completely disperse the personnel. For example, the ten guards under Wang Tie's command were all from their original stronghold.

After the person has gone far away.

Wei Xiyin and others went to the location of the mine according to the map.

Five scouts set out first to explore the way ahead.

The mine is five miles northwest of Fuyang County and is called Mian'an Mountain.

Previously, the tribe mined ore in secret, and there was a secret transportation road. What they had to do was to reopen this road, ensure road safety, and check the safety of the mountains.

Because there is the precedent of shell mounds.

Wei Xiyin ordered people to prepare a lot of "Sun True Fire". If there were any unusual movements on the mountain, the worst that could happen was that the mountain would be burned down and then mining could be carried out. Now that the imperial court was gone, there was nothing to fear about mining openly.

Thousands of people were walking in the middle pushing vehicles. On the vehicles were not only various tools needed for mining, but also a lot of daily necessities. After all, during the mining period, some people needed to stay here to work.

Considering the danger outside, everyone who comes out will receive triple the food.

In order to have enough food and drink in the future, many people are still willing to come out to work, knowing that there will be troops protecting them along the way, and that the large number of people can give each other courage.

In today's world, only those who are brave and willing to take risks can live a good life.

Along the way.

The scenery along the way was no different from the rest of the place, with collapsed villages, weed-covered paths, and devastation. Scattered zombies smelled the scent and rushed out, rushing towards the crowd.

Not long after they walked, a scout who had been exploring the road ahead returned and said, "My lady, we've spotted some zombie animals ahead. They look like cattle."

Wei Xiyin had no expression on her face when she heard this. She was just so unlucky that she had never met anyone normal.

"Chang Ying will lead the team to solve the problem."

"yes!"

Gong Liulang brought up the unrelated topic, "It seems that there are still no cows in the fort. The piglets have grown up, and I heard that the sow is pregnant again. However, there are too many people and too little meat, so I'm afraid it will take some time to raise them."

Wei Xiyin glanced at him and asked, "Why? Liu Langjun is also interested in raising livestock?"

"It's just a feeling. Life is tough these days, and it's becoming increasingly difficult to see normal animals," Gong Liulang said nonchalantly. "I went to the mountains to look for salt mines, and on the way, a question suddenly crossed my mind..."

Wei Xiyin raised her eyes and waited quietly for what was to come.

"Why does the girl call it a zombie?"

Now almost everyone has accepted this name, and those infected with the disease are collectively called "zombies". It is said that the first person to call them this was Miss Wei.

Wei Xiyin remained calm, "It's just a title. There's no need for Liu Langjun to be confused. You can call those monsters whatever you want."

Gong Liulang said calmly, "Indeed, it's just a title. Logically, the first person to call someone that would have their own reasons or opinions. It seems like the girl knows more about those monsters than the rest of us."

Wei Xiyin sneered, "Sixth Young Master doubts me?"

The word "zombie" that came out of his mouth at that time actually aroused suspicion.

Is this a suspicion that the zombie virus is related to her?

Gong Liulang looked very calm. "Since I can say this in front of the girl, it means I trust her and the Wei family."

The implication is that there is no denial.

Wei Xiyin remained calm, "As for the term 'zombie', it can be explained. The monster has become a living dead, just like the walking dead, very similar to the legendary zombies. And 'zombie' has to do with dead people, moving corpses. I thought 'zombie' was a very appropriate description, so I used it."

Could it be possible to ask her to say that she had seen it in a novel in her previous life?

I don't know which idle guy came up with this idea.

Gong Liulang nodded when he heard this, "This explanation is quite acceptable, young lady."

Wei Xiyin wasn't angry at all. The corners of her lips curled up slightly. "I also have a question that has been bothering me for a long time. I hope Liu Langjun can help me solve it."

Gong Liulang bowed and said, "I am willing to help you solve your doubts."

Wei Xiyin only heard a faint voice: "What is Liu Langjun's real name..."

Gong Liulang suddenly stopped in his tracks and his face fell. He had known him for more than half a year, but he didn't even know his name.

"I was originally planning to ask my elders, but then I thought about it. It's just a title. Calling him by his name doesn't seem to be any different from calling him Liu Langjun." Wei Xiyin didn't feel guilty at all.

Upon hearing this, Gong Liulang glared at her with an ugly expression, then turned around and walked away, blending into the crowd at the back.

Wei Xiyin raised her chin and shouted at his back: "This is the same principle as calling zombies, Liu Langjun don't mind it." Let you doubt me.

Chang Ying, who had just returned from killing a zombie cow: "..."

What is going on?

Sometimes the girl was extremely serious, and sometimes he could not understand her words or actions at all.

Chang Ying thought for a moment and said to Wei Xiyin, "Gong Liulang's real name is Gong Chun."

"After Mr. Chu mentioned it to the girl last time, I asked Lord Zhang." I didn't know what the strange thing was, so who knew that the girl would actually mention it to others in person.

Wei Xiyin waved her hand, "I understand."

Conversation room.

The group has arrived at the foot of Mount Mian.

There are sporadic monsters wandering at the bottom of the mountain, and there are piles of white bones. The mountain road is covered by dense vegetation, and it is impossible to tell where the road leads.

Wei Xiyin and Gong Liulang, who was standing among the people, each took out a mine map.

After clearing out the monsters at the foot of the mountain, everyone became extremely vigilant and prepared to enter the mountain.

Thousands of civilians followed closely behind, with guards guarding the periphery in front, behind, left and right.

When we reached halfway up the mountain, everything was normal and we didn't encounter any danger. We even saw normal animals moving around in the mountains.

Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, it seemed that Mount Mian was not polluted.

The group walked in the mountains for two days according to the map before arriving near the mine.

Going up the steep mountain path, a pothole came into view. Mining ore was done by manpower, and the Wei family had only mined this accidentally discovered mine once, so it was not obvious from the outside.

The mine is located deep in the mountains. The excavated area has been buried by nearby weeds. If it weren't for the map, I'm afraid no one would be able to find it.

Soon the people began to take action.

The knowledgeable servants of the Wei Ting family began to inspect the ore, survey the terrain, lead people to find vacant land, build temporary residences, clear the surrounding weeds, etc.

You have to know that they will be stationed here for more than a month, and they will have to take care of their own food, clothing, housing and transportation.
