She spoke seriously, her eyes, still red, looked more determined than ever before.
Miao Xi's throat choked slightly, and she felt her eyes getting hot. She touched Lulu's head and pressed her into her arms, hugging her tightly. "Okay, okay, our Lulu is awesome, awesome. You are my sister's pride!"
She is only ten years old, but not only is she so sensible, she has also shouldered many responsibilities that should not be borne by her. She can obviously complain, play, throw tantrum and be willful like a normal child of her age, but Lulu did not do that. Maybe she is sensible by nature, or maybe the end of the world has made her cautious, making her understand the difficulties of life in advance and forced to grow up early.
But no matter what, seeing Lulu prove it to her so solemnly, Miao Xi felt an indescribable emotion in her heart.
I feel both heartbroken and extremely guilty.
Jiang Mi walked over to the two of them, looked at them hugging each other and smiled, "Lulu, are you really not afraid?"
Lulu raised her head from Miao Xi's arms, and it seemed that her emotions had passed. She stared with big eyes and said stubbornly: "Don't be afraid! It's just a mutant. Lulu is a superpower now, and I have super strength! I can knock it away with one punch!"
Seeing Jiang Mi staring at her with a half-smile, Lulu's face turned slightly red, and she stammered in defense: "Just now...just now it was because that thing appeared too suddenly, anyone would be scared if it were me."
As she spoke, Lulu broke free from Miao Xi's embrace, ran to the pile of coke in two steps, stepped on it with force and kicked it twice, then turned around, put her hands on her waist, raised her head and snorted, "Lulu, don't be afraid!"
After repeating this, Jiang Mi couldn't bear to tease her anymore and waved at her with a smile, "Okay, our Lulu is the bravest person, so sister is going to give a reward to our little warrior."
Hearing the praise, Lulu shook her head happily. When she heard the word "reward", her eyes lit up. She ran to Jiang Mi, hugged Jiang Mi's waist with both hands, raised her head, and asked with sparkling eyes, "What reward?"
Jiang Mi did not make the decision, but lowered his head and asked, "What does our little warrior want?"
Lulu couldn't help swallowing, her eyes full of anticipation, "Anything is fine?"
"Of course." Jiang Mi said confidently.
She was indeed confident. After all, she had most of the items in her space. What could a little kid like Lulu want? Just some food and toys, which she had countless of.
After all, when she was purchasing supplies, she bought whatever she saw as she walked along the way. There were so many things that she couldn't even remember them.
Lulu rolled her eyes, hesitated for a moment, and said shyly: "Then... Lulu, can I have a weapon?"
After saying that, as if she was afraid that Jiang Mi would misunderstand, she hurriedly explained: "Sister Miao has a Miao Dao, Sister Xiaofei has a gun, and Lulu also wants a weapon, so that she won't be afraid when she encounters a mutant in the future!"
Her words made Jiang Mi fall into deep thought.
The first point is that Lulu is an eight-year-old girl, what kind of weapon is suitable for her? Secondly, Lulu is not an ordinary eight-year-old child. An ordinary eight-year-old child has difficulty carrying a bucket of water, but Lulu can kill a cow with one punch. There is no comparison at all.
"Does Lulu have a weapon that she likes?" Jiang Mi asked again.
Now Lulu was in trouble. She thought for a long time but couldn't come up with an answer. She pouted and said, "Lulu doesn't know. Lulu hasn't seen many weapons. Can Sister Jiang help Lulu choose?"
Jiang Mi couldn't think of a suitable weapon for a while, so as not to delay the progress of the next passage, he smiled and touched her head and said, "Then sister needs to think about it carefully. Can this reward be redeemed after a while?"
When Lulu heard this, she jumped for joy. "Great! Lulu will have her own weapon!"
Seeing how adorable she was, Jiang Mi couldn't help but take out a can of candy wrapped in transparent colored paper from his space and handed it to her. "This is my compensation for not being able to redeem your rewards in time. But don't eat too much. Only two cans a day, or your teeth will get damaged. When your teeth hurt, you won't be able to defeat the mutants."
Looking at the big jar of colored paper candy, Lulu became extremely excited. She jumped and danced while holding the jar, her two pigtails swinging up into the air.
"Yeah! There's candy!"
Miao Xi stood aside, smiled and shook his head, looked at Jiang Mi and said, "Just spoil her."
After that, he looked at Lulu and said seriously, "No more than two a day. You are not allowed to take more. Remember?"
She was still very dignified in Lulu's heart. Seeing her so serious, Lulu immediately stopped being excited, holding the jar and standing obediently, but still smiling from ear to ear, "Yeah, I know!"
"Have you thanked Sister Jiang?"
"Thank you, Sister Jiang!" Lulu hurriedly bent down to Jiang Mi and thanked her in a crisp voice.
"Okay, okay, why don't you try this candy and see if it's sweet?" Jiang Mi chuckled.
Lulu happily opened the glass jar, but without eating it first, she picked up a candy, walked in front of Jiang Mi, raised her right hand high and handed it to her. Jiang Mi took it with a smile but did not eat it. After all, she was still wearing a filtering mask.
Then Lulu handed one to Miao Xi, then to Jiang Xun who was a little behind the two of them, and finally to Fang Bo and Lao Zhang. After everyone had received one, Lulu peeled one for herself and put it in her mouth. She took two sips and the sweet and sour taste made her shrink her neck involuntarily. As the sweetness came up, Lulu smiled again.
"Put it in the car." Miao Xi rubbed her head.
Lulu responded, quickly put the candy jar on the car, and ran back quickly to start working.
The road was cleared in a few minutes and the two cars continued on their way.
Next, they encountered another traffic accident and some mutants crawled out. This time, Lulu did not scream. Although her body was still shaking, she stood there and stared at the mutants with wide eyes until they were killed by Jiang Xun. Her tense body relaxed.
Jiang Mi encouraged him a few more times, thought about it and found Jiang Xun.
"Brother, don't attack the lone mutants next time unless they are too strong. Leave them to them, and don't protect them too well. This will lower their safety awareness, which is harmful to them."
Jiang Xun nodded. Even if he wanted to break through, these two or three kittens were really useless. It would be better to give them to the others to improve their strength.
Seeing that he agreed, Jiang Mi turned around and went to find Miao Xi, Fang Bo and others and told them about this plan.
Several people had no objection because it was indeed for their own good.
If they don't fight for a long time, their reaction ability and strength will decline. Jiang Mi and Jiang Xun will leave sooner or later, and the base will need them to protect it. It would be fine if their strength remained the same, but once it declines, they will have to risk their lives to remedy any problems the base encounters.
There are more and more people in the base. It is only a matter of time before we attract the attention of other survivors. Now we have to improve our strength quickly.
