Chapter 56 Miao Xi
"Brother, how about we exchange supplies with him for information about Xing Shaoan?" Jiang Mi pondered as he walked.
As soon as he finished speaking, he was hit on the head.
Jiang Xun took back his hand and said helplessly: "Haste makes waste. If he wants to say it, he will say it when the potion is taken out. If he doesn't want to say it, even if you use supplies to hit him, how can you guarantee that he is telling the truth?"
"Besides, I think we can observe this person for a few days. If he is really good, City R can let him take charge."
Jiang Mi sighed, "Indeed, from what I've seen just now, this guy shouldn't be such a profit-seeking person. It will always be more comfortable to deal with him."
"Okay, stop nagging. It's getting dark. Let's find a place to stay."
Jiang Xun looked up and looked around, then chose an office building and walked in.
The two were now in a business circle, surrounded by shopping malls and office buildings, but there were few residential areas to be seen.
There weren't many mutants in the office building, but it was a mess, extremely messy, with blood and unrecognizable garbage everywhere. Jiang Mi lifted her feet carefully to avoid getting her shoes dirty.
The elevator stopped working due to a power outage. In the emergency passage, several bodies with their masks completely gone were seen, emitting a strong stench. Maggots were crawling on their bodies and flies were flying around. Jiang Xun stopped immediately because of the disgusting sight and smell.
The entire corridor leading to the third floor was filled with corpses lying all over the place. There was no safe place to stand. One had to be a national-level long jumper to jump over it, not to mention that there were swarms of flies flying in the air.
Jiang Mi felt that the smell here was a bit irritating to the eyes, and even wearing a filter couldn't block it out.
Jiang Xun stood there for three seconds and then immediately turned around and went downstairs. Jiang Mi held his breath and hurried to follow.
There is no way, no way, no way at all.
Don't make it difficult for yourself.
Just after coming out of the office building, Jiang Mi noticed that Jiang Xun beside him took a deep breath, and he couldn't help but take a deep breath himself.
Even though the air outside doesn't smell good, it's better than the stench in there.
"Let's go. There shouldn't be any suitable places to stay nearby." Jiang Xun couldn't help but take out a cigarette and light it up. He took a deep breath and exhaled white smoke. "The blood of those corpses just now didn't change. They shouldn't be mutants. It looks like there are many survivors nearby."
"Outside the business district should be the residential area, let's go out for a walk."
Jiang Mi seldom saw him smoking, and he was very restrained himself, so he would hardly be seen smoking a cigarette all year round. He probably lit up now because he couldn't stand the smoke anymore.
The two men looked around as they walked, alert for possible attacks.
After all, the two were nearly hit by a sniper rifle as soon as they got off the helicopter, and there was no guarantee that it wouldn't happen again here.
The two of them walked neither fast nor slow, and were very cautious along the way. As soon as they turned a corner, they saw a figure in the distance struggling with a mutant, but that person was obviously at a disadvantage and was almost caught by the mutant several times.
Jiang Mi's eyes lit up, and he and Jiang Xun looked at each other. They both hurriedly quickened their pace. When they got closer, they found that it was a woman who looked quite strong and powerful. She was holding a Miao Dao in her hand and constantly blocking the attacks of the mutants. Her face was a little pale, and her steps were unsteady as if she was a little exhausted.
Jiang Xun raised his hand and an arc of electricity flashed over. The mutant immediately twitched all over and turned into a pile of charcoal, falling in front of the woman.
After seeing the mutant dead, the woman knelt on the ground with her knife, gasping for breath, with beads of sweat dripping down her forehead. After a long while, she raised her head and looked at the two people. After a calm look, she said, "Thank you."
Jiang Mi's attention was on the Miao Dao in her hand. The blade, about 1.6 meters long, was almost as tall as the woman. The blade was as slender as a seedling but extremely sharp. Moreover, the Miao Dao was obviously sharpened and stained with a lot of dark blood.
The weapon the woman used when she was fighting just now didn't look like she had picked it up at random. Instead, it looked like she had some skills.
This made Jiang Mi's heart move, and he recalled a person he had heard of in his previous life - Miao Xi.
Miao Xi did not become a person with special powers, but he made a name for himself with his Miao Dao. He hated men very much, but he had a righteous heart. He helped many female survivors and even formed his own survivor base.
But since she only accepts women, the base is not very big, but because of this, her base is very famous.
Later, she died accidentally while leading her team out to search for supplies, and her base was taken over by another base.
But there is another version that says that her death was not an accident at all, but someone deliberately planned the accident and wanted to kill her on purpose just to target the female survivors in her base.
She had no idea what happened to those female survivors who fell into the hands of others.
When she heard about this person in her previous life, she admired him very much and even wanted to go to her base. But before she could realize it, Miao Xi died and the base was gone, so she naturally had to give up the idea.
Perhaps it was because her gaze was too naked, Miao Xi stood up with the help of the knife, without even looking at Jiang Xun, her eyes fell on Jiang Mi.
Even though she was wrapped so tightly that her eyes were unrecognizable, her height of less than 1.7 meters was too obvious.
"You saved me..." At this point, Miao Xi paused, frowned for a while, glanced at Jiang Xun's dress, and was silent for a moment before whispering, "If you need anything, I can help you."
As if he was afraid that Jiang Mi and the others would make excessive demands, he added, "As long as I can do it and it doesn't violate morality."
Jiang Mi just thought she was a strange person, and he found it funny in his heart, so he couldn't help but smile a little while speaking, "In the end times, humans should help each other, and saving you was just a matter of convenience, but I do have something I need to ask you."
Miao Xi was greatly relieved to find that she just wanted to ask something. She was really afraid that someone would use this to demand a favor and make excessive demands on her.
"Ask me, I won't hide anything I know."
"Have you heard of Xing Shaoan?" Jiang Mi asked.
Miao Xi's eyes moved, she pursed her lips and nodded, "I know him."
"Do you know where he is now?" Jiang Mi asked impatiently, his eyes full of joy.
Miao Xi frowned, hesitated for a moment and asked: "What do you want to see him for?"
Jiang Mi did not hide it, "We are from Shuguang, and we have a research project that needs to be led by Mr. Xing Shaoan. This is very important to all mankind."
Miao Xi's expression slightly changed, and he whispered, "Is he so awesome?"
Then he looked at Jiang Mi and said seriously, "I do know Xing Shaoan. He is my childhood friend. However, he left R City for the Y City Research Institute before the end of the world. I didn't receive any news of his return until the end of the world."
"If you want to find him, you can go to Y City."
