Chapter 236 Chapter 238 Reciprocity
The little soldier looked at the glass bottle that Xuanxuan took out of her small backpack and looked at Rong Xianxian hesitantly.
"These are some wild fruits. We picked a lot of them in the wild. Please accept them and have a try as they are a little gift from the child!" Rong Xianxian said with a smile. Of course, the fruits that Xuanxuan carried with her were not ordinary wild fruits, but rare spiritual fruits that she had found. They were rich in spiritual energy and tasted good.
"Then I won't be polite!" The young soldier looked younger than Xia Kai, Wang Qirui and others. He had clear eyes. He looked at his comrades who were setting up the table and waiting to record information. Thinking that it was just some wild fruits, he accepted it.
The communication between people is wonderful. After just a few more words, the distance between each other is shortened a lot.
"Sister, you must be capable people to dare to travel with a few people and children. This place is remote and people usually don't pass by here when going to Taijing. Why don't you stay at the service area on the highway?" asked the young soldier.
"I was in a hurry to get on the road, but ended up getting entangled by a monster. I wasted time and couldn't make it to the next service area before dark. I remembered that a relative lived in this town, so I thought having a place to stay would be safer than being in the wild." Rong Xianxian replied with a smile.
"Sister, when we got here, everyone in the town had been killed and no one survived. So, you don't have to look for any relatives. Now this place is taken over by the military, and it mainly provides supplies to various armies. There have been civilian troops passing by and staying overnight before, but the army stipulates that food and lodging must be provided by oneself. Of course, since I have accepted the gift from the little kid, here, take my relative and friend certificate, and when you go in later, someone will arrange a place for you to stay." The young soldier handed Rong Xianxian a paper certificate with a big red seal on it.
Rong Xianxian was slightly stunned, and then she started laughing. She didn't expect that Xuanxuan's unintentional action won the undisguised favor of the little soldier.
Rong Xianxian accepted the relative certificate given by the young soldier. The certificate had the young soldier's name on it. Chen Nuo said, "Aren't you afraid that if I'm a bad guy and do something here, it will implicate you?"
"I don't think you're a bad person, and even if you are, it has nothing to do with me. This is a military stronghold. What can you do? The relative certificate I gave you only saved you the accommodation fee, but it didn't give you any rights. How could it implicate me? Hehe! After all, I'm just a soldier and don't have any rights, haha!" Chen Nuo said honestly. Rong Xianxian noticed that the other soldier rolled his eyes speechlessly. If she could read minds, she would hear the soldier's complaints, "You can't even talk or be nice. Do you need your accommodation fee?"
"This is for you. The bag contains a bottle of antidote and a bottle of healing and hemostatic medicine. This box contains anthelmintic pills that can repel most poisonous insects. You can use the pills after removing the tin seal. Wear them on your body. One pill can be used for a month." Rong Xianxian took out an exquisite small cloth bag from her backpack and handed it to Chen Nuo. The small cloth bag contained two long-necked and big-bellied white porcelain bottles, and a cylindrical wooden box.
"No, thanks. That thing is worthless." Chen Nuo declined quickly.
"Take it. It's a matter of reciprocity. I made them myself. They work great. I have a lot more here!" Rong Xianxian stuffed them into his hands and turned away.
The soldier who had just rolled his eyes looked blankly at the bag in the young soldier's hand, confused. Shit, why wasn't it me who went to open the door just now?
Rong Xianxian and his group drove towards the town and did not notice that an officer on the tower defense was looking at their convoy with a shocked expression.
Cui Lie seemed to sense something and looked back, but found nothing unusual!
"Sister Rong, I just felt someone was staring at us." Cui Lie drove the off-road RV and said to Rong Xianxian who was sitting in the passenger seat.
"This is an important military base. Our every move is under surveillance. It's normal to be watched." Rong Xianxian said nonchalantly.
Cui Lie frowned slightly. The military surveillance target would not stare at the monitored person for a long time because it would be easy to be discovered. The feeling just now was more like being watched than being monitored.
Rong Xianxian has sharp five senses, so it is impossible for him not to feel it if he is being watched. This means that the person being watched just now might be just him!
Cui Lie had a bad feeling in his heart. Could it be that he met his former comrades or soldiers he had led before?
Cui Lie had this guess in his mind, and he felt a little complicated.
Since his memory was unlocked and he recalled the forgotten years, everyone has seen Cui Lie becoming increasingly powerful and silent, but no one knows what kind of torment he went through during the initial days when his memory was restored?
When Cui Lie was discharged from the army, hypnosis sealed some of his memories, and his files in the military system were also sealed.
Logically speaking, there are not many people who remember him or can recognize him. Those people are either in the north or in the capital. It is impossible for them to appear here. Maybe I am overthinking it?
The hypnosis was implemented and some of his memories were sealed in order to allow him to integrate into the life of ordinary people, but it inevitably led to some impact on his mind. If he had not met Rong Xianxian, he might have been killed by Ren Cheng and others.
During his green and ignorant high school days, Rong Xianxian once helped him inadvertently. Although he knew that she would definitely not remember it, Cui Lie still couldn't help but keep her in his heart.
Many people have this kind of feeling, but it is just a vague fantasy about the opposite sex in their youth due to the influence of hormone secretion. It is as mysterious and distant as seeing flowers in the fog. This fantasy is deeply remembered, but it does not affect people's love, starting a family and career. With the increase of emotional experience and the deepening of experience, it will gradually fade.
However, Cui Lie is different. After joining the army, his life was boring and monotonous. Later, when he was discharged from the army, he lost most of his memories in the army because of hypnosis. At this time, Rong Xianxian appeared in his life again. Rong Xianxian helped him out of the predicament and was particularly trusting and close to him among all his colleagues. Although he understood that this was just her way of employing people, and Rong Xianxian needed to use his abilities to help her convince everyone and consolidate her leadership in the team, Cui Lie still enjoyed it and felt lucky because of it.
Cui Lie, immersed in his thoughts, did not notice that the off-road vehicle driven by Wang Lin in front of him was slowly slowing down. In the middle of the road ahead stood a large sign with red letters on a white background, which read "Identity Verification Office for Outsiders at the Official Supply Point of Xiangshan Town".
"Alie, slow down." Rong Xianxian noticed that Cui Lie was a little distracted and quickly reminded him.
