Chapter 71 Compassion
Chi Yi and Gu Wan woke up, and the group decided to leave Quzhou City that very night.
I had a simple dinner.
After Lu Nange put some compressed biscuits and other food that could be stored for a long time in the room, everyone got up and went to the living room.
Several boys remained in the living room.
"Knock knock" - Lu Nange and Wen Qing gently knocked on Li Wei's door.
Jiu Jiu opened the door as usual, and the little girl looked up at her: "Sister, what's wrong?"
Lu Nange crouched down, looking directly at Jiu Jiu: "The sisters are leaving tonight, so we've come to say goodbye."
Wen Qing walked straight to Li Wei on the bed: "Let me see how you are."
"Are you... a doctor?" Li Wei shrank back warily.
Wen Qing didn't answer, but instead grabbed her wrist.
Just as Li Wei was about to struggle, a warm current suddenly surged into her limbs and bones.
To her surprise, the pain that had tormented her for so long was slowly subsiding.
"Protect your daughter." Wen Qing released her hand and turned to walk towards the door.
Li Wei struggled to get up to thank him, but Wen Qing stopped her.
Wen Qing: "Nan Nan, let's go!"
Under the watchful eyes of Li Wei and Jiu Jiu, Lu Nange and the others left Jiu Jiu's house directly.
As the door closed, Jiu Jiu looked up at Li Wei.
"Mom, are you no longer coughing?"
Li Wei touched her chest blankly: "Yes... I'm not coughing anymore..."
"The pretty lady said she left a gift in the room!"
When Li Wei saw the large bag in the room, her legs went weak.
It contains individually packaged foods with long shelf lives.
A note lay quietly on top: "Survive! Scatter and hide well, don't let anyone find it."
Li Wei's tears fell onto the note. She turned to chase after him, but stopped abruptly at the door.
Reason told her that what good would chasing after them do? It would only hurt everyone.
"Mom?" Jiu Jiu tugged at her clothes anxiously.
Li Wei hugged her daughter tightly, her voice choked with emotion: "Remember what these older brothers and sisters look like...we must be grateful to them forever!"
She suddenly tightened her arms, her voice extremely low: "But promise Mom, you have to keep this a secret. No one can mention that your older siblings came, understand?"
Jiu Jiu immediately covered her mouth with her little hands, her eyes wide open: "It's always just Mom and me in our family! Dad... Dad works at the Su family's..."
As he finished speaking, his childish voice unconsciously lowered.
Li Wei felt as if her heart was being gripped tightly.
Husband... the man who voluntarily entered the Su family laboratory in exchange for the lives of her and her daughter.
She buried her face in her daughter's hair, her shoulders trembling silently.
***
A quiet night.
Lu Nange and the others left Li Wei's house quietly.
As soon as she stepped out of the room, Lu Nange's spiritual power spread outwards.
The group followed Lu Nange, moving like ghosts through the intricate alleys of Quzhou.
Occasionally, the sound of patrol footsteps would come from afar, and Lu Nange would always avoid them in advance.
Clamped against the mottled walls and taking cover from the eaves, they traveled through Quzhou City for more than an hour.
Finally, we were nearing the point where we could leave the city.
Lu Nange suddenly raised her hand, and everyone froze instantly.
"Nan Nan, what's wrong?" Lu Xici's voice was very low.
"There's an ambush at the exit," Lu Nange said in a low voice. "Twenty of them, all of them possess superpowers."
He Zhuo clenched his fingers: "These mad dogs from the Su family, are they really treating us like mice?"
"Should we force our way in?" Gu Qi asked softly.
Chi Yanzhou: "I estimate the situation will be the same for all exports; they all need to leave Quzhou City, and this one is unavoidable."
Lu Nange looked up at the crowd: "Two against one, are you in or not?"
He Zhu grinned, his eyes blazing with fighting spirit: "Let's get them!"
Everyone's eyes were filled with fighting spirit, but Ji Xian silently retreated to the wall: "You're all superhumans, I'll only be a hindrance, I'll just wait for you here!"
"Old Ji..." Gu Qi frowned.
Ji Xian waved his hand: "Stop talking nonsense. Didn't you all say that I would awaken my superpowers sooner or later?"
Lu Nange silently handed him a gun: "Be careful."
Ji Xian took it and nodded.
......
Lu Nange sensed someone rapidly approaching them: "Someone's coming!"
Everyone was on edge.
Two figures slowly emerged from the shadows a hundred meters away.
Under the moonlight, a man and a woman raised their hands to indicate that they were harmless.
The woman's deliberately light footsteps made almost no sound on the gravel road.
"We mean no harm!" the woman said in a very low voice, but each word was clear: "We just want to discuss a collaboration."
Sparks flew from Lu Xici's fingers: "We don't even know you, why should we believe you?"
A woman in uniform stepped forward: "The entire city of Quzhou is under the control of the Su family. They've laid a trap for you..."
"How did you find us?" Lu Nange asked in a cold voice.
The man pointed to a high point: "There are twelve lookout posts at each exit, all staffed by locals from Quzhou. The moment you stepped into the restricted area, your whereabouts were already exposed."
A flash of electricity crackled between Chi Yanzhou's fingers, illuminating his cold, handsome profile: "So?"
"Five minutes." Liu Ning's voice carried a desperate resolve: "If we can't reach an agreement, we'll personally pave the way for you. We swear on the name of our departed loved ones."
He Zhuo and the others all thought of Li Wei and her daughter at the same time, and their eyes focused on Lu Nange and Chi Yanzhou.
Lu Nange spread her mental energy to confirm that there were no more ambushes within a radius of 100 meters: "Five minutes."
The two men cautiously moved forward a few steps and stopped. "My name is Liu Ning, and this is Fei Tian. Hello!"
Chi Yanzhou's eyelids drooped slightly: "Get to the point!"
"We would like to ask for your assistance in fighting against the Su family." A glint of fire ignited in Liu Ning's eyes: "After our success, you will receive half of the supplies from Quzhou City."
Gu Qi narrowed his eyes: "Why us?"
Liu Ning: "Because you are the only ones who have broken into Quzhou City and are still alive when facing Xiao Zhu."
Chi Yanzhou: "With supplies that are not yet in your hands, you expect us to go up against the local bullies of Quzhou?"
Fei Tian quickly replied, "Don't worry, everyone. We've arranged everything. We, the people of Quzhou, will be at the forefront. All you need to do is step in when it matters."
Lu Nange glanced at the two of them: "What if we refuse?"
"Then please come with us to a place." Liu Ning's nails dug deeply into her palms. "You can decide after you've seen it."
Lu Xici raised an eyebrow: "Why should we go with you?"
Liu Ning and Fei Tian both knelt down at the same time.
"We're betting..." Liu Ning raised her head, tears glistening in the moonlight: "We're betting on everyone's compassion!"
