Chapter 227: Visiting the Horse Camp Again
Ye Xin looked at Bai Muran. Whether he was willing to get involved in the affairs of the A701 base again was up to him to decide.
Bai Muran nodded: "Speaking of that matter, I have some connection with him. I am willing to go with Captain Liu."
He turned to look at Liu Mingfei: "When do we set out? It would be best tonight. It will be harder to get close after daybreak."
This coincides with Liu Mingfei's idea.
Liu Mingfei took out the food from his backpack: "Let's go after dinner. It's not peaceful here. Let's solve it as soon as possible and go back early."
As he said this, he handed the food to Xiao Liu to heat up.
A serving of stir-fried shredded potatoes and a serving of pickled cabbage. Not to mention the meat, there wasn't even a trace of oil in the soup, as if it was just cooked in plain water.
Bai Muran looked at the chicken legs, spare ribs and a plate of egg fried rice in front of him and found it hard to eat. He glanced at Ye Xin secretly.
Ye Xin turned her head and pretended not to see it.
Bai Muran walked up to Liu Mingfei and placed his dish in front of him: "I've eaten too much meat these past two days, and I'm having trouble digesting it. Let's switch."
Ye Xin: ...
Li Yanwu: …
I say, brother, can we find a better excuse? This sounds a bit like showing off.
Liu Mingfei and Xiao Liu are really greedy. They have never seen what meat looks like since Bai Muran left!
The two of them unceremoniously put their chopsticks into Bai Muran's rice bowl, each of them picked up a piece of pork ribs and stopped eating, and at the same time gave some of their own vegetarian dishes to Bai Muran.
Bai Muran simply pushed his ribs in front of the two people and then put their shredded potatoes into his own bowl.
Looking at Bai Muran's appearance, Ye Xin suddenly remembered Su Jing in her previous life. At that time, everyone was short of food and clothing, and she gave her food to herself and Xuanxuan in this way!
Unfortunately, she didn't make it through the first year.
Now she lives well in the space. This may be the best ending and the meaning of the existence of space!
After dinner and a short rest, Liu Mingfei took Bai Muran out.
Before leaving, both of them applied essence to prevent themselves from being tripped by zombies on the road.
The night is pitch black.
Even the moon hid in the clouds.
The two dark shadows were as agile as cats. They quickly crossed the street and moved towards the stable.
Liu Mingfei was in front and Bai Muran was behind, and they stopped in front of the boundary marker outside Maying Village.
"Captain Liu, I'd better stay in the front. If we run into their people, I'll be more confident than you."
Liu Mingfei nodded without hesitation: "Be careful, there might be someone on duty at night, and they don't know you."
Bai Muran walked forward less than 100 meters.
"Bang!"
There was another crisp gunshot, and the bullet grazed Bai Muran's body and shot into the distance.
"Who are you? Stop and don't go any further!"
A man's voice rang out in the darkness.
Bai Muran spread his hands: "We have no bad intentions. I am Bai Muran from the A701 base. I am looking for Ma Liang. Please lead the way."
The man seemed to be in a difficult position to talk to, muttering to himself, "This is really weird! Someone came to see him in the afternoon, and someone else came to see him in the evening! Didn't the A701 base decide not to accept him? Did they change their minds?"
Bai Muran and Liu Mingfei looked at each other and stood there waiting obediently.
The man said to the person next to him: "Ma Liang should not be asleep yet, go find him and see what he says."
"Hey! What's your name?" the man shouted at Bai Muran.
"Bai Muran."
A small figure quickly ran towards the village, probably to find Ma Liang.
Liu Mingfei then breathed a sigh of relief: I hope Muran’s name is still useful!
Otherwise they would have to find a way to sneak in.
When Ma Liang brought his mother to the A701 base, they were refused entry because they could not afford the entrance fee. At that time, both of them were almost starving to death and were besieged by two zombies.
They were discovered by Bai Muran who had just returned from a mission. He not only drove away the zombies for them, but also gave them two steamed buns.
After learning that they were also rejected because they could not afford the entrance fee, Bai Muran felt his body and found no zombie crystal core, so he had to watch the mother and son leave.
Later he found out that the man was called Ma Liang, and he was a psychic with awakened abilities. However, the base was controlled by political bigwigs at the time, and the little scoundrels in the military had no say at all, so the matter was left unsolved.
Who would have thought that his mother was the first person to drink the blood of the spirit fox to heal her mental damage!
When Bai Muran heard the name Ma Liang yesterday, he felt like he had seen him before. It was not until he walked to the next village and encountered a zombie that he remembered who Ma Liang was.
The two did not stay here for long before they saw the small figure running over with a tall man, holding a torch in his hand.
The man stood in front of Bai Muran, and the torch approached Bai Muran. Bai Muran took off his night vision goggles and smiled at him: "Long time no see."
Ma Liang immediately recognized Bai Muran: "Benefactor, is it really you? Come in! Come in! Follow me!"
As he spoke, he led the way in front, and Bai Muran led Liu Mingfei following behind him, walking towards the depths of the village.
Only then did they realize that Maying was like a small base. Every household had its doors tightly closed. In addition to someone guarding the village entrance, there were also people patrolling the roads.
The patrolman should also be a villager of this village. He nodded when he saw Ma Liang. No wonder the man in the daytime said that they no longer needed to enter the A701 base.
Liu Mingfei and Bai Muran looked at each other.
They both understood very well: even if Ma Liang's mother had intermittent mental disorder, it might be a secret to the outside world. If they couldn't tempt him with the conditions of joining the base, would he tell the truth?
Bai Muran was also a little worried.
He walked all the way to the end of the village, and then he stood in front of a small courtyard. He reached out and knocked on the door, and called out, "Mom, I'm back. Open the door."
An old man with gray hair came out and opened the door to let them in.
Seeing Bai Muran, the old man kept muttering: "Liangzi said that our savior is here, but I didn't believe it. Is it really you? Why are you here so late at night?"
Then he poured a bowl of hot water for the two of them.
Bai Muran took the bowl of hot water and said with a smile: "How is your health, old man? We passed by here on our mission and heard that you lived here, so we came here to ask for a bowl of water."
The old man did not doubt him: "Have you eaten yet? Hey! Liangzi, go and see if we have anything to eat?"
Bai Muran quickly stopped him and said, "We've eaten, we've eaten! We always bring dry food with us when we go on missions."
As he spoke, Bai Muran took out two steamed buns from his backpack and handed them over: "Just consider it as a gift for our interruption."
The old man refused to accept them, but his old eyes were fixed on the two steamed buns.
How could Bai Muran not understand?
Although they could still make ends meet here, they could hardly have enough food to eat, so they were naturally very greedy when they saw these two steamed buns.
Bai Muran stuffed the steamed bun into the old man's hand: "Take it! We brought a lot."
The old man handed the steamed bread to his son, then took Bai Muran's hand and looked him up and down: "My benefactor is still so energetic, um! He seems to have gained a little weight."
Bai Muran held the old woman's hand and asked her to sit on the chair: "How is your health, old lady? In this end times, it is not easy for everyone. Many people outside suffer from auditory hallucinations, and some are mentally ill."
The old man was slightly stunned when he heard this.
