The main text of Chapter 123 is completed.
Liang Nan applied medicine to Li Yuan's injured arm. As she packed up, she saw him still clutching his waist and abdomen. "How's it going? Is it still painful?"
"Not bad," Li Yuan shook his head. Cheng Yuefeng had kicked him hard, and he hadn't had time to defend himself, so he took a real bruise. He'd just taken a look and seen a large bruise. It would probably take several days to heal. "What's wrong with Cheng Yuefeng? Why did he run?"
Upon hearing this, Liang Nan exchanged a glance with Lin Mian beside him, but said nothing more. "Don't ask. It's better to know less about some things. When we return to the safe zone, just say that he and Qi Shang died at the hands of the Altered Species. Understand?"
Hearing him say this, Li Yuan was even more confused, but he wasn't the type to ask questions. He knew they might have their own plans, so he didn't need to ask too much, nor did he need to interfere. "Okay, I understand."
Knowing that he was sensible, Liang Nan reached out and patted his shoulder. If it were Zhou Tai, he would have been nagging for a long time, so he didn't bring him out this time.
“Boom!”
She had just turned around to say a few words to Lin Mian when a huge explosion suddenly came from the distance, shaking their side as well.
The three of them were startled by the sudden movement. Looking at the strong energy light exploding in the direction where Jiang Jie and the others left in the distance, their hearts tightened instantly.
"Fuck! It's the superpower core self-destructing!"
Liang Nan reacted immediately, let out a cry of surprise, and raised his foot to run over there.
But her arm was grabbed by someone. She turned around and met the young man's face. She asked in confusion, "Lin Mian?"
Seeing that she had stopped, Lin Mian let go of her hand and turned his gaze to the distance, "Brother Jie will be fine, we will wait for him here."
"But..." Liang Nan was still a little worried. She knew that Jiang Jie was very strong, but no matter what, he was also a flesh and blood body. The power of the superpower nuclear self-detonation was very strong. If he was hit at close range, he would be in great pain if not dead. Even if he had a superpower shield, he could not withstand such an explosive impact and would definitely be injured.
She opened her mouth to try to persuade him again, but she caught a glimpse of Lin Mian's tightly clenched hands hanging at his sides, which were trembling slightly. She pursed her lips, raised her eyes, and saw that his gaze was always fixed in the distance. She turned her head away and said nothing more.
They waited there, watching the energy light and the aftermath of the explosion gradually dissipate, and the distant scene returned to calm, as if everything was completely over.
The sunlight was at its strongest near noon, and it made Liang Nan, who had been staring into the distance, feel a little dizzy. She raised her hand and pinched the bridge of her nose to relieve the pain.
"I'm back."
Li Yuan's deep voice came from beside her. She just raised her head, but before she could see the figure in the distance clearly, someone next to her suddenly ran out.
Li Yuan also wanted to raise his foot to follow, but Liang Nan reached out and held him back, "You big straight man, follow and be a light bulb."
After being scolded by her, Li Yuan felt a little embarrassed and raised his hand to touch his nose, then stood there with him without moving.
Lin Mian watched the figure running in the distance. The worry that had been suppressed in his heart suddenly came out. He just wanted to go faster.
Jiang Jie looked up and saw his little rabbit running towards him. A smile appeared on his face. When the other party approached, he stopped and opened his arms.
Almost in the next second, a warm body jumped into his arms. He used his arms to lift the person up and hung him on his body.
Lin Mian hugged him tightly, burying his face in his neck.
Jiang Yan could feel the body pressed against his still trembling slightly. He raised his hand and rubbed the back of the other person's head, "Are you worried?"
"Um……"
The person in his arms let out a nasal hum as a response to his words, and rubbed her cheek against his neck.
Jiang Yan's smile was gentle, and the hand that was rubbing the back of his head moved down to smooth his back, "Baby, don't you know how strong your boyfriend is?"
Lin Mian raised his face from his neck and stepped back a little, holding his shoulders with his hands. Because of his posture, he looked down at him, and the corners of his eyes were a little red. He sniffed and said, "I understand, but the power of the superpower core self-detonation is too strong."
He knew that the other party would be able to handle it, but he was still afraid of that possibility.
Jiang Yan freed one hand and gently pinched his cheek, then wiped the moisture from the corner of his eyes with his knuckles, "Don't worry, Cheng Yuefeng's little supernatural power can't even break my supernatural shield, let alone hurt me."
Lin Mian held his face and looked at it. There was indeed not even a small wound. It was even worse than the first A-level mutant. At least it broke his skin.
A man's strength is indeed like a bottomless pit.
He didn't want to know how deep it was, he just knew that the other person would always be safe.
Lin Mian bent down and kissed the tip of his nose, then hugged him tightly and buried his face in the crook of his neck.
Jiang Yi turned his head and kissed him behind the ear, then lifted him up into a hug and walked with him towards the car.
"That's great." Looking at the two people gradually approaching, Liang Nan clasped his hands together, leaned them against his face, and had starry eyes.
Li Yuan turned his head to glance at her, put his fist to his lips and coughed, "District Chief, your image is a bit broken."
Such girlish sentiments were not suitable for her. She would feel more comfortable when she violently knocked the psychic to the ground.
Liang Nan turned around and rolled her eyes at him, her girlish heart completely gone.
As he gradually approached the car, Lin Mian, whose emotions had eased, began to feel embarrassed. He kicked his legs to indicate that he wanted to get off.
"You're feeling embarrassed now. Don't you think it's too late?" Jiang Yan patted him on the butt.
Lin Mian's face flushed instantly, "Brother Ji..."
Considering the little rabbit's face, Jiang Jie stopped teasing him, put him down from his body, held his hand and continued walking back.
Liang Nan glanced at Lin Mian jokingly as he approached him. Seeing that he shyly avoided his gaze, he said cheerfully, "Is everything settled, Brother Jiang?"
"Well," Jiang Jie nodded, "We won't go back to the safe zone with you this time. We'll see you again sometime."
Liang Nan was stunned when she heard this suddenly. Although she had been prepared for the two of them to leave sooner or later, she was still a little disappointed when she heard that they were leaving. "Are you in such a hurry? Actually, you can stay for a while."
"There's no need for that," Jiang Jie held Lin Mian's hand and stroked his palm. "Life in the safe zone isn't suitable for us. We stayed here for so long because of Cheng Yuefeng and the others. Now that everything has been resolved, it's time to leave."
If they wanted to leave, he definitely couldn't keep them. Liang Nan nodded disappointedly, "Okay then."
"Liang Nan," Lin Mian called her, and when everyone looked over, he smiled and said, "Thank you for taking care of me during this time. I'm very happy. We will definitely see each other again in the future."
His gentle comfort made Liang Nan curl her lips and sniff. In her emotion, she opened her arms to him and said, "Can I hug you?"
But when he caught sight of Jiang Jie, he timidly retracted one of his hands and said, "Can I shake your hand?"
Lin Mian was amused by her smooth movements. He reached out and held her hand, shaking it twice. "See you later."
Jiang Jie stood by and didn't say anything. He had no objection if his little rabbit could make some friends.
The two were sent to the car by Liang Nan and the others. She looked up at them through the car window and said, "Lin Mian, Brother Jiang, we must meet again. The next time you come to our safe zone, it will definitely not be the same size as it is now."
Lin Mian leaned against the car window, clenched his fist and made a cheering gesture to her, "I'm looking forward to it."
Jiang Jie, who was in the driver's seat, tilted his head and said, "Just don't die."
After he finished speaking, he stepped on the accelerator and the RV drove out.
In the rearview camera, Liang Nan raised her hands and waved at them. Her voice was clearly heard, "Don't worry, it won't happen!"
As the car drove away, the other party's figure became smaller and smaller, and as it turned into another lane, it completely disappeared from sight.
Lin Mian inexplicably had a sense of loss and trance. After staying with people who were always lively and talkative for a long time, it was indeed a bit uncomfortable when they suddenly became quiet.
Jiang Jie turned his head to look at him, "Why, you don't want to leave?"
Being asked in such a teasing way, Lin Mian shook his head and said, "I just feel a little uncomfortable suddenly. Liang Nan and the others are all very good people."
"That's because they know," Jiang Jie freed a hand to rub his head, "you're a very good person too."
Only by releasing kindness can you gain kindness. If it weren't for the little rabbit's harmlessness and softness, they would probably only have fear and dread towards themselves.
Lin Mian rubbed his palm and said, "Brother Jie is also a very good person."
Jiang Jie smiled and pinched his earlobe before withdrawing his hand and resting it lightly on the steering wheel. "Where do you want to go next?"
"Hmm..." Lin Mian held the seat belt and leaned back in thought, then said, "The weather seems to be getting hot again. How about we go to the coastal area? I don't think I've ever been to the beach."
"Okay," Jiang Jie had no objection, "but most of the alien objects on the seabed are very ugly, so they might hurt your eyes."
Even ordinary deep-sea creatures are mostly ugly, and become even more hideous after being alienated. Some are so distorted that they no longer look like living creatures.
"It doesn't matter," Lin Mian glanced at him quietly and muttered softly, "Anyway, it's Brother Jie who will handle it..."
Jiang Yan, who clearly heard what he said, chuckled and asked knowingly, "What did you say?"
Lin Mian quickly smiled and said, "I mean, I don't know if we can still eat seafood now."
Seeing that he was smiling so beautifully, Jiang Jie pretended not to have heard what he said before. "Of course, not all creatures have undergone alienation."
Compared to the ordinary animals and plants on land that die in large numbers due to natural disasters, the survival rate of those creatures in the deep sea may be even higher.
"That's great!" Lin Mian is already looking forward to it.
Jiang Yan listened to his excited voice, and the smile on his face never faded.
The golden sunlight shone on them through the car window. It was not too hot yet, just warm, like a comfortable veil.
The world has not completely collapsed, and there are still people who are full of hope for life. As long as they face the sun, they can still find the meaning of survival.
Under the blue sky, the RV was shrouded in light, moving forward along the open road and gradually disappearing into the distance.
