Chapter 130: Mountaintop Base
Zhang Zhang didn't even bother to pay attention to the fat guy. Are all fat guys the same? They keep saying they want to lose weight, but they still eat everything with relish. The fat guy in their team is the biggest eater.
"Little Meow!" Ye Jin shouted when he saw a trap suddenly pop out from the grass on the top of the mountain.
Fortunately, the little cat reacted quickly and jumped away immediately, but he didn't expect that there were more than a dozen iron clamps around.
Ye Jin used a large water ball to blow away all the traps, and the little cat, with nowhere to put its feet, dared to land.
Zhang Zhang quickly ran up and asked, "Is Yueyue okay?"
"It's okay." Zhang Yue leaned over and touched the little cat's fluffy white head, comforting it lightly: "It's okay, it's okay, don't be afraid."
Ye Jin frowned as she watched this scene. Although she knew that Xiaoyue was young, only ten years old, she didn't like Xiaoyue keeping Xiaomao as a pet. A mutant beast should look like a mutant beast, not be as heartless as a pet dog.
When she first met Xiao Miao, Xiao Miao was much more alert than he is now.
The little cat was lowering its head and meowing and acting cute with Zhang Yue, when it suddenly felt Ye Jin's deep gaze. It shuddered. With its animal sensitivity, it felt that it was not a good thing.
"What's wrong? Don't be afraid." Zhang Yue thought Xiao Miao was still scared.
Xiao Miao became smaller and jumped into Zhang Yue's arms, avoiding Ye Jin's sight.
“Ding ding ding!”
Suddenly a bell rang.
Ye Jin looked at the small base in front of him. The wall was made of concrete. There were several rows of sharp iron traps along the entire wall, and a circle of bayonets were placed around the wall to ward off enemies.
A large bell was hung on the thatched house on the wall that served as a sentry.
When she used the water ball to push the trap open, she must have hit the connection point.
Several guards with bayonets immediately ran out from the thatched hut and asked, "Who are you? Why are you attacking us?"
Zhang Zhang knew that Ye Jin didn't like to communicate, so he immediately stepped forward to negotiate and said, "We have no ill intentions, we are here to look for someone."
The men looked at each other for a few seconds, and then a man stood up and said, "Who are you looking for?"
"My family." Shen Yuting stood up and said, "I am from the village below. Now that the village is buried, we want to try our luck and see if we can find my family."
"What are your family members called?"
“My father’s surname is Shen, and my brother’s name is Shen Xunfei.”
After hearing this, the man said, “Are you sure your brother’s name is Shen Xunfei?”
Shen Yuting asked in surprise: "Do you know where my brother is?"
The men immediately ran over from the thatched hut where they were on guard, opened the door for them, and pulled out several defensive iron spikes.
Ye Jin didn't expect that things went so smoothly. Several people took them to a mud house and served them a few pots of tea. Clean water resources are still very precious to ordinary people in the end times.
Seeing that Ye Jin and the others didn't touch it, the sentry said, "This water is clean. We have water-based superpowers here."
"Hey, we're not thirsty. We haven't even met this person yet, so how can we have the nerve to drink your water?" The main reason was that the fat guy had been spoiled for a while.
This cup is also made of mud, and it can't be compared with the boss's blue and white porcelain teacup.
Of course, he was not thirsty. Ye Jin was a sixth-level water element, so he had no problem taking a bath every day.
"Is it really Xiaoting who is back?" A slightly plump woman came in from outside.
Shen Yuting stood up immediately: "Aunt Shen!"
"Is it really Xiaoting?" Aunt Shen pulled Shen Yuting and said, "I'm glad you're back, I'm glad you're back. Your brother went out to look for you again and hasn't come back yet."
"Looking for me?"
"Yes, your brother. He's worried that you won't be able to find him when you come back, so he'll go to some bases you might pass by every once in a while to post notices or something."
Shen Yuting was touched. Her brother really would not give up on her.
As for why Shen Xunfei didn't go to the Xicheng base, it was probably because the Xicheng base and Shen Yuting's way home were not on the same line.
What Shen Yuting thought was that the West City Base was the center of City C, and people would gather in large bases. She never thought that her brother would be so successful and become the head of a small base.
"Xiaoting, is this your friend?" Aunt Zhang looked at Ye Jin and the others and said, "This girl is so beautiful."
Xiaoting is the most beautiful girl in their village. I didn’t expect that someone could be so delicate. And the girl holding the dog next to her has round eyes, so cute.
"They are all my teammates." Shen Yuting introduced Ye Jin: "She is our captain."
Ye Jin nodded politely to the woman.
Shen Yuting looked outside and didn't see her parents coming over, so she asked, "Aunt Zhang, where are my parents? Please take me to see them."
Aunt Zhang's expression was sad after hearing this. When Shen Yuting saw this, the tears that had just stopped welling up in her eyes began to well up again.
Aunt Zhang said, "Xiaoting, don't cry. Your parents turned into zombies in the apocalypse. There's nothing we can do about it."
"Most people in our village have turned into zombies. Although we've hidden ourselves in the mountains and there are no zombies anymore, the mountains are full of mutant animals. My little Gu was eaten by those murderous wild wolves until not even a bone was left."
As Aunt Zhang spoke, she began to cry uncontrollably.
Ye Jin didn't expect this to happen. The two women just hugged each other and cried.
"Xiao Gu was only a teenager, how could he be gone?" Shen Yuting felt very uncomfortable. Xiao Gu was Aunt Zhang's son, and he was at the age full of vigor and vitality.
"Alas!" Aunt Zhang sighed. "In this world, being alive is already more fortunate than many people. Xiaoting, you still have a brother. You are much better off than many of us who are left alone."
Shen Yuting felt stuffy in her chest.
Ye Jin and a few others were listening to their conversation nearby, but they didn't disturb them.
The fat man's stomach growled at a very inopportune time.
Everyone present turned their attention to him.
Fortunately, a voice came from far away outside, breaking the fat man's embarrassment.
"Xiaoting!"
Shen Yuting immediately stood up and walked out after hearing the voice: "Brother!"
A man with facial features that were 50% similar to Shen Yuting walked in and hugged her.
"Great, you're finally back." Shen Xunfei hugged his sister, tears welling up in the corners of the eyes of this grown man.
Then, very inopportunely, the fat man's stomach growled again.
Everyone turned their gaze away from the Shen siblings and looked at the fat man.
Even someone as shameless as Fatty wants to dig a hole in the ground now.
Aunt Zhang immediately said, "You must be hungry, right? It's good that you're back. It's time to eat now. I'll take someone to cook."
Shen Xunfei called Aunt Zhang and said, “There are guests today, let’s make something delicious.”
"Oh, okay, okay, okay." Aunt Zhang hurried to prepare the meal.
