Chapter 65 Chapter 67 Heading North
Villa third floor
Large living room
Rong Xianxian set the team admission criteria as mandatory regulations and also reiterated team discipline before departure.
Having a stable place to stay in the city and a relatively safe living environment allows for some small ideas, but on the road, one meets all kinds of people and the outside environment is dangerous and complicated, so different voices are absolutely not allowed in the team.
The living room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, and the atmosphere was a little stagnant.
"Haha, Sister Rong, you're joking. You are the goddess in my heart, and I will never leave you for someone else." Wang Qirui's funny performance broke the slightly stagnant atmosphere. Rong Xianxian burst out laughing, and the expressions on everyone's faces instantly relaxed.
Wang Qirui made Rong Xianxian laugh, and everyone else seemed to be relieved.
Uh, Sister Rong is usually gentle and kind, why did she seem a little scary just now?
Wang Lin thought silently in his heart.
"When will the army set off? I wonder if the army will allow us to follow?" Cui Lie started a new topic.
"If they are not the returning advance troops, but the troops sent from other safe zones, they probably have a mission to accomplish. They will rest for three to five days at most and will definitely set off." Rong Xianxian said in an affirmative tone.
"Then should we go with them, or follow them along the same route? We have a lot of things to bring with us, so the army won't recruit us, right?" Xia Kai was the only one among the group, except Rong Xianxian, who had never been in the army.
"The army doesn't think highly of what we have. There are quite a few migrant workers in the Chongzhou Safety Zone, and many of them wanted to return home in a group before. Some are worried about their relatives, and some don't want to die in a foreign land. They will not miss this opportunity, and there will be many people who will set off with the army at that time." Rong Xianxian had experienced this in her previous life, so she could only tell them by guessing.
"If there are too many people, the army won't be able to handle it, right?" Wang Lin asked hesitantly.
No one knows now, but Rong Xianxian knows clearly that this team comes from the capital, and some of them are from the army. They are responsible for escorting some important people to Beijing.
But most of them are from mercenary organizations, and people in the army also use the name of mercenary organizations, just because they don’t want to take on the responsibilities themselves.
"It's no use guessing now. We'll know when the time comes. It's impossible for such a large group to leave silently." Although the mercenary team has hot weapons to support them, they can't take care of the large number of people returning home.
"If you want to drive a few cars, don't worry about the gasoline. I have stored a lot, and we can find a gas station on the road." Only Rong Xianxian herself knew how much gasoline the leather bag in her hand could store.
Rong Xianxian always avoided everyone's sight when using the space items. They might have secret suspicions, but everyone tacitly did not ask any further questions, so the suspicion was just suspicion. No one knew what the space items in Rong Xianxian's hand were, the jade pendant hanging around her neck, the ring on her finger, the jade pendant that she often played with in her hand, or the small gourd tied on her wrist.
Knowing that after a long time, everyone will definitely have doubts. From the beginning, Rong Xianxian hid the sachet very carefully, and the jade pendant and ring that were displayed in the open were all smokescreens.
"Sister Rong, can we drive one and tow one?" Wang Qirui said whimsically when he heard Rong Xianxian tell them not to worry about the gasoline problem.
As soon as Wang Qirui said this, everyone looked at him sideways. He grinned awkwardly and chuckled twice.
Rong Xianxian thought about how in her previous life she brought her children and followed a group of civilians returning home, walking behind the mercenaries.
The captain of the returning team was a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties. His daughter in her twenties was cunning and arrogant. She took a fancy to the luxurious tent brought by Rong Xianxian and took it away by force by relying on her numbers. Although Wang Lin was angry, he was just one person. The other party had more people and more power. If he confronted him head-on, he would only suffer a loss. Rong Xianxian persuaded him rationally.
When she was just reborn, Rong Xianxian was still thinking about joining that team again and teaching her a lesson. Now that she thinks about it, it’s really not worth it. She’s just a tricky girl. She could obviously have a better environment. Why bother to take that risk?
Just do whatever makes you feel comfortable.
"There are six of us in total, so we'll drive six cars. We have a lot of stuff, so all six cars can be stuffed. With more cars, we won't feel bad if we abandon any damaged ones." Retracing the path of escape from her previous life, Rong Xianxian felt relaxed and vaguely expectant.
"Tomorrow, everyone should sort out the personal belongings they are going to take. Mainly their clothes, trophies, weapons, and the food we stored. Divide all kinds of supplies into six parts, and each person will take one part. Then load them into the vehicle you are driving." Although Rong Xianxian did not take them into danger, they never stopped fighting monsters and collecting treasures. Especially in the first two months of the apocalypse, the chance of finding treasures was very high. In addition to their usual weapons, everyone had many other trophies.
It can be said that each of them is wealthy.
"After packing up, do we need to go to the safe zone to inquire about the news?" Xia Kai asked. He was already familiar with the route to the safe zone.
Rong Xianxian knew that this team would enter the city today, rest in the safe zone for a day tomorrow, and set off again early the next morning before dawn. However, they were still blocked by the small team returning home who were waiting there.
"They are leaving the city. Among the three routes opened by the advance team, the most likely one is the one where we encountered the armored monster. That road leads directly to Binyang, and it is not safe to travel at night, so they are likely to leave early in the morning. They just arrived today, and they should not set out tomorrow morning. It is very likely to be the day after tomorrow, or later. Those on duty in the high-level area should keep an eye on it the day after tomorrow and notify us if there is any movement."
"Tomorrow evening, drive all the selected cars to the front of the villa yard. We will move the prepared supplies onto the cars and be ready to set off at any time." As soon as Rong Xianxian finished speaking, Wang Qirui, Xia Kai and Jiang Jie jumped up excitedly, shouting "Yeah" childishly and running and jumping.
Rong Xianxian looked at them with some pity, a bunch of foolish boys who didn't know how to appreciate what they had.
In her previous life, Rong Xianxian had always been in a civilian team and had no chance to get close to the mercenary team because the mercenary team strictly prohibited anyone from getting close to them. But sometimes they would come to the team behind to pick people, and at that time, everyone hoped to be selected.
The people they protected in the middle of the team were said to be their mission targets. Because of the drag of those people in the middle, the mercenary team did not advance very fast. Otherwise, the various small convoys that were dragging behind would have been left behind by the mercenary team long ago.
About to embark on a new journey, Rong Xianxian smiled slightly and wished herself a safe journey.
