Chapter 434 Arrival in the Capital
Xia Tian was choked by Rong Xianxian's words. It's not that she hadn't tried before, but Cui Lie simply ignored her. She only thought of asking Rong Xianxian to help talk to him because she saw that Cui Lie treated Rong Xianxian with great respect.
Rong Xianxian put away the syringe and left the tent of Xia Tian and her daughter. This was the last time she would give her acupuncture. She had originally planned to refine a furnace of elixirs for her to nourish her body, but now it seemed unnecessary. She had already saved her life before, so what would happen to her in the future? Let's wait and see what God will do!
"Mom, what were you talking about just now? My uncle taught me cultivation and martial arts personally, patiently and carefully, and I'm learning well. What do you mean by suddenly saying this?" Zhong Yingying said to Xia Tian after sending Rong Xianxian back.
"Yingying, I asked your uncle, Captain Cui is the best person in this team, much better than others. When we were in school, we all hoped to find the best teacher for our children, and it's the same now! Mom is doing this for your own good!" Xia Tian said righteously.
"Mom, what rights do you have to make such a request? My uncle is willing to teach me because he is my uncle. What does other people have to do with us?" Zhong Yingying looked at Xia Tian, feeling a little depressed.
"Okay, okay, I'll just ask. If it's not possible, then it's not possible." Xia Tian sighed, "Silly child, doesn't mom just want you to enjoy better treatment? You are only a few years older than Xuanxuan. There are only three of you in this team, so you should be treated equally. In the future, don't always rush to do things like washing dishes and collecting firewood. Just follow Xuanxuan, do whatever she does, and go wherever she goes." Xia Tian said earnestly.
"Mom, don't you know why I'm rushing to do the work? It's no problem for you to move around now. It would be good to do some work to stretch your muscles. You do nothing all day and I have to bring you meals. It's not a small thing to do. If this goes on, we won't be able to stay in this team for long!" Zhong Yingying rolled her eyes helplessly.
"How can you talk like that? Isn't mom sick? She needs to rest well." Xia Tian said angrily.
"When you were in the safe zone, you were much sicker than you are now, but didn't you still go to work to earn a living?" Zhong Yingying retorted bluntly.
"There was nothing we could do back then, but don't we have your uncle now?" Xia Tian said casually.
"Yingying, look at the tent where Doctor Rong lives. It's so big and spacious. And the RV with its comfortable beds. And the medicinal baths she gives to Xuanxuan and Xiaoluo, and the special meals she cooks for them. We are all children from the same team. Look at how Xuanxuan is treated, and then look at you. Mom feels so sorry for you. Although mom has no ability, isn't your uncle also a member of the team? He has been with them since the end of the world, and he is also a veteran and meritorious member of the team!" Xia Tian muttered unwillingly.
"Mom, if you have this mentality, then my uncle's life will probably be difficult in the future! If you really love me, you might as well help with some work." Zhong Yingying said helplessly.
It didn’t matter what Xia Tian thought, her treatment was over. Although they were in the same team, Rong Xianxian didn’t want to see her, so Xia Tian had no chance to get in her way.
The rest of the journey was relatively smooth. Rong Xianxian and Cui Lie teamed up to deal with level three monsters and reaped a lot of rewards.
On the eleventh day after setting out from the Jindu Safety Zone, the large force arrived at the Jingcheng Safety Zone.
It was already dark when they arrived. Lights were on on the city walls and streets of the capital's safety zone, and from afar it looked brightly lit.
Rong Xianxian looked at the towering city that she had always longed for in her previous life but had never reached, and a complex emotion welled up in her heart. Was she going to the mountain of tigers despite knowing there were tigers there? Here were her enemies, but also the peace she longed for.
The site for the outer city expansion of the Beijing Security Zone has been selected and the foundation has been determined. Even when it was dark, there were still people busy on the construction site. Wen Qingming instructed his officers to assist Rong Xianxian, Ye Lanxin and the dozen or so teams that had received the mission to go to the mission center to hand in the mission and receive the reward. He then watched them complete the procedures for establishing a mercenary group before leaving.
Although it was already dark, there were still people on duty in various administrative departments within the Beijing Security Zone. After completing their mission, Rong Xianxian and her team exchanged a lot of gold coins. Rong Xianxian distributed the gold coins to each team leader according to the merit of each team, and asked each captain to use the gold coins in their hands to find ways to place their team members.
When Rong Xianxian was choosing a suitable place to live at the housing rental center, two soldiers in black uniforms found Cui Lie. It was unknown what the two men showed Cui Lie. Cui Lie greeted Rong Xianxian and left with them.
Rong Xianxian didn't know where Cui Lie had gone, nor did she know what he was doing. She originally thought that Cui Lie was also unfamiliar with this place like herself, but she didn't expect that he actually had an acquaintance here, and she found him so quickly.
The news that Rong Xianxian arrived in the capital with the troops led by Wen Qingming soon reached the ears of those who were interested.
Gong Hanyu convened his men to a meeting overnight to discuss countermeasures. The Ning family had different reactions when they learned that Ning Qingyun and Rong Xianxian arrived in the capital together. Ning Zhici had been trying to harm the people who stayed in Beijing led by Chai Ming, but he never found an opportunity. He was very angry when he heard the news.
Wang Lin's brother Wang Rui was in a good mood when he knew that his younger brother had returned safely.
"Brother Ming, don't worry. Tomorrow morning, we will go to the task center to post the task and look for Mingwei. I believe we will get news from her soon." Rong Xianxian comforted Ming Tianlei who looked uneasy.
"I, I'm so scared. I'm so scared of getting some bad news." Ming Tianlei's palms were sweaty. He started to get nervous the moment he saw the city.
"Don't be nervous, Brother Ming. College students are among the first group to be rescued. Mingwei will definitely be fine." Rong Xianxian said comfortingly.
"I hope so! I can only feel relieved when I see her." Ming Tianlei was still very nervous.
In a shabby little shop in the capital's safety zone, a girl with a ponytail was about to close the door when she was suddenly blocked by a hand.
"It's so late, what are you doing here?" The girl looked at the person who came and said with great vigilance.
"Mingwei, I know I was wrong, please give me another chance!" The one who came was a tall and fair-skinned boy with a sweet dimple at the corner of his mouth when he smiled.
"You did nothing wrong. You've said it before. It was just instinct. Your instinct is to push the people around you away to protect you when you encounter danger. I just happened to be by your side. What's wrong with you? I was wrong. I shouldn't have been by your side." Mingwei said sarcastically.
