Jiang Mi was silent for a while, and Mr. Zhang looked at her expectantly.
"I...I will do my best." Jiang Mi pursed her lips and said softly.
Although he did not get a definite guarantee, Mr. Zhang still smiled with satisfaction and relief, "Okay, I am satisfied with your words. I also hope that everything in the future will be based on your safety. Nothing is more important than being alive."
This conversation with Mr. Zhang left Jiang Mi with mixed feelings.
The experiences in her past life made her unable to trust others easily, let alone save all living beings from danger by herself. But now that she has been reborn, when she looks back on the past, she actually feels a blurry feeling, like a flower in the water or the moon in the mirror.
When she returned to the room, Jiang Xuyuan had been arranged to live in another room, and now only her parents and brother were in the room.
The two of them were whispering something around the older brother, and the older brother looked a little helpless.
Seeing Jiang Mi coming back, Jiang's mother waved, "Mi Mi, come quickly!"
Jiang Mi walked over and sat down next to Jiang's mother. As soon as she got to the sofa, Jiang's mother winked at her and asked in a low voice: "Haven't you met any good girls in this period of time?"
"Mom!" Jiang Xun frowned slightly.
Jiang Mi's eyelids jumped. "We've been running around all this time, and everyone has wrapped themselves up like a dumpling. How can we tell if the other person is a man or a woman?"
She wanted to fool him, but Jiang's mother didn't want to just brush it off. She nudged Jiang Mi's waist with her elbow and said, "Tell me the truth. Have you and your brother ever met anyone you like?"
Father Jiang couldn't bear it any longer. "Oh, I see you're not tired yet. Mimi has been flying the helicopter for so many days. Can you let her have a good rest? If you have anything else, ask another day."
Jiang Mi responded quickly, "Yes, Mom, I am indeed a little tired. Besides, the New Year is just two days away. The people in our base are not very good at making arrangements. You know, you will have to work hard to lead us in the next two days. Let's try to make this first year of the apocalypse a prosperous one, so that everyone can have something to look forward to."
"Dad, do you think I'm right?" Jiang Mi quickly winked at his father.
Father Jiang also echoed, "Yes, yes, this is the first year since the end of the world, we must let everyone live happily. You said that our family is reunited, but what about others? Some of them have lost their loved ones, and some have lost contact with relatives and friends. We have to make them happy, and don't think about it anymore. There are only two days left, so we have to hurry up. Xun and Mimi are busy, don't bother them with those trivial matters."
He straightened his back and said proudly, "After all, they are now the leaders of a base. If the people below see them, how will they establish their authority in front of other people in the base and manage the entire base in the future!"
Once Jiang's father brought up these words, Jiang's mother withdrew her hand in dismay, "Well, I also wanted them to have a companion..."
"Then I'll go and rest for a while." Jiang Mi yawned quickly, got up and walked towards the bedroom.
Fortunately, this room was a large suite with three bedrooms and a living room, which was completely sufficient for the whole family. After Jiang Mi returned to her bedroom, she threw herself directly onto the bed and fell asleep in a short while.
Flying for four consecutive days is too much for even the strongest person.
I slept for more than three hours and was called to have dinner.
The restaurant is more lively today than usual. Father and Mother Jiang have become familiar with many people in the base. The kitchen even specially prepared a banquet to welcome them.
About twenty people were seated at three tables, each table had ten dishes, including both meat and vegetables, and the taste was good.
Father Jiang was so happy that he drank quite a bit. When the table was cleared, everyone felt a little dizzy. Mother Jiang also drank a little but not as much as Father Jiang.
"Mom, why don't you persuade Dad to drink less." Jiang Mi stepped forward and followed his brother to support his father.
"You're in a happy mood today. It's okay. Just drink more. I haven't met so many people in a long time. Your dad is really happy today." Jiang's mother said happily.
After settling the two elderly people, Jiang Mi returned to the living room and saw Jiang Xun sitting on the sofa. He nodded slightly after seeing her, "Are you going to take a day off today?"
Jiang Mi shook his head. "I slept in the afternoon. Now I feel pretty good. Let's continue exploring. I feel like I'm not far from a breakthrough."
It seems that her talent cannot catch up with her brother's now, but if she can advance to the second level within a month, it will be very good. At least her self-protection ability will be greatly improved.
The improvement of each level of superpower is huge. To use a more vivid metaphor, when you just awaken, that is, at the first level, if the fireball you make is the size of a ping-pong ball and has very low lethality, then when you reach the second level, with the simultaneous improvement of mental power, the fireball you make will become the size of a washbasin. Because of the improvement of mental power, the control of the fireball will even be more precise and skillful, and half of the energy of the superpower will not be wasted.
Jiang Xun looked her up and down, made sure that she was not trying to be stubborn, nodded, and flashed directly into the space.
There is not much difference in the space from before, except that most of the fruits in the fruit forest have begun to ripen. As soon as you get close to the orchard, you can smell the sweet aroma of the fruits, which is very tempting.
"Get in the car." Jiang Xun sat in the driver's seat. Jiang Mi withdrew his hands that were eager to pick peaches and quickly got in the passenger seat.
This time the two continued to advance along the route they had explored before, but after going ten kilometers deep, the ground gradually began to become extremely humid, and one could even see criss-crossing canals and huge tree roots protruding high above the ground, tangled and intertwined, covering the ground, making the entire ground uneven.
Various weeds and shrubs half a person's height began to seriously affect their vision, and both of them paid extra attention.
"We can't go any further." Jiang Xun cut the weeds in front of him with a knife, revealing a view ahead.
They saw that there was water in front of them. The water became deeper as they went forward. In addition, it was very dark in the forest, so they couldn't see the depth of the water at all.
"With so much water, it's not safe on the ground or on the trees. There's a high chance there will be swamps under the water. It will be troublesome if we get stuck in it." Jiang Xun frowned and whispered.
It's not just swamps. Places with stored water are more likely to breed all kinds of animals, especially snakes. The dangers in those canals are more than just swamps.
"Let's go horizontally." Jiang Mi nodded. She also felt that it was not a good idea to continue exploring forward rashly.
Jiang Xun seldom took action along the way, and basically just stood on guard at the side. She was responsible for capturing those animals and practicing her supernatural powers at the same time.
But for some unknown reason, ever since that wolf-like and tiger-like beast was captured, there have been very few large animals seen on this road. The largest one she has seen so far was only about the size of a fox, and it was very fast and alert. As soon as she noticed it, it disappeared in a flash, and she couldn't catch it even if she wanted to.
