Chapter 259: Willfulness (Second Update)
Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye didn't walk too far after they left. This forest was very large. There might be nothing there before the end of the world, but after the end of the world, no one could tell what would appear in it.
Although the two had some confidence in their own strength, they did not dare to be arrogant. Moreover, they had to rush to Bei City as soon as possible, so they naturally did not want to waste time exploring the mountains and forests. So they had not walked far when Fang Yuxin took out some fresh ingredients in front of Bai Ye.
With the ginseng spirit taking care of the spiritual field, the ripe vegetables and fruits would be carefully picked and stored by it, and Fang Yuxin could just take them out from the warehouse. The warehouse was blessed with a special formation to keep the fruits fresh. The vegetables Fang Yuxin took out were still covered with crystal dew, and looked very crisp and tender.
The two took their things and turned back. As soon as they returned to the parking lot, they found that the atmosphere here was a little strange. The two saw the problem.
With the help of Fang Yuxin, the two people infected with the zombie virus overcame the virus's erosion of their bodies, successfully awakened, and became superpowers. The others found that the two people who they thought were doomed to die turned out to be superpowers, and naturally they felt very complicated.
Fang Yuxin only took a glance and then looked away. She had already helped those who needed to be helped. How far these two could go depended on themselves.
Next, she and Bai Ye took out the tools from the car and started cooking.
When they were away from home, they couldn't possibly cook anything complicated. Fang Yuxin first cooked a pot of ham and meat soup, and also boiled a few raw eggs in the water. After the water boiled, she took out a handful of dried noodles and put them in. When the water was almost cooked, she threw in the fresh green vegetables, blanched them a little, and then turned off the fire.
The others just made do with bread, cake, instant noodles or biscuits, which were not only not filling, but also very dry. Although Fang Yuxin deliberately created a small barrier around her when she cooked the soup to prevent the fragrance from wafting away, the others watched her throw the ingredients in one by one, staring with their eyes wide open and swallowing their saliva.
However, no one dared to come over and ask for food from them. Zhao Yan's nephew Zhao Liang looked at them with envy, but Zhao Yan warned him not to offend them. Even Liu Zhenglin's four-year-old daughter Liu Yihuan only took a glance and then looked away, leaning obediently in Liu Zhenglin's arms.
Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye picked up the noodles and soaked the eggs in cold water. When they finished eating the noodles, the eggs were almost cold. Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye divided the noodles, leaving one egg on purpose. Fang Yuxin quietly took a box of pure milk from the space and sent it to Liu Yihuan along with the egg.
Liu Zhenglin and his daughter had already had a simple dinner. Liu Yihuan ate a piece of cake, while Liu Zhenglin only ate a packet of instant noodles, which was barely enough to fill his stomach.
Seeing Fang Yuxin coming over, Liu Zhenglin was a little at a loss. He had always remembered Fang Yuxin's kindness in his heart, and he didn't dare to expect Fang Yuxin to specially send food to his daughter. His handsome face turned slightly red, and he looked very embarrassed.
He said in embarrassment, "These things are too precious. You...you should keep them for yourself. To be honest, you have given us enough. You don't need to give us any more."
Fang Yuxin reached out and touched Liu Yihuan's head. Seeing that she was staring at him curiously with her big eyes, he smiled at her and said to Liu Zhenglin, "It's not a precious thing. Your daughter is growing up now. You should always consider her."
After she finished speaking, she handed the item to Liu Zhenglin. Liu Zhenglin glanced at his daughter's dry and yellow hair, and this time he did not hesitate. He looked at Fang Yuxin and thanked her solemnly: "This little thing may not mean much to you, but it is very precious to me and Huanhuan. Whether you believe it or not, I, Liu Zhenglin, will never forget your kindness!" He took the item after that.
Fang Yuxin didn't take his words to heart, and turned around and left after giving the gift. The others saw this scene, but they didn't dare to have any opinions. After all, Liu Yihuan was still a child, and they were adults. Fang Yuxin was willing to take special care of her, which was her blessing. They, as adults, couldn't be jealous of a child, let alone think that Fang Yuxin was unfair because of this.
They are not that shameless!
After a short rest, Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye were ready to continue on their journey. They were concerned about getting to Bei City as soon as possible, and were reluctant to stop and rest.
Moreover, their current physical bodies are in no way comparable to those of ordinary people. Even if they don't sleep for a few nights, they will not feel tired. Resting is just a waste of time for them.
They don't need to rest, but the others are tired and hungry, exhausted both physically and mentally. Ordinary people will be very tired after driving for a long time, not to mention that they have been frightened all the way, their nerves have been tense, and they can't fill their stomachs. If they continue on the road, they will be very stressed.
Seeing Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye were about to continue on their journey, someone boldly advised: "Driving at night is too dangerous. Do you want to find a place to rest for the night? Then continue on your journey tomorrow morning?"
Fang Yuxin had already taken out his tablet computer and was estimating their location. Looking at the area marked on the map, Fang Yuxin tapped his fingers lightly and frowned.
Bai Ye leaned over to take a look and saw that it showed Lin City, which seemed to be not far from where they were. He asked, "Are you planning to go here? Are you going to meet someone?"
They were going to Bei City, and they would not pass through Lin City. Fang Yuxin must have a reason for looking at this place. Bai Ye guessed several possibilities in his mind, and felt that the most likely possibility was that Fang Yuxin knew someone in Lin City, so she wanted to go over and take a look.
When he asked this, Fang Yuxin nodded and said, "A friend of mine's hometown is here. She went back to visit her relatives before the end of the world. I don't know how she is doing now. I plan to go over and see her." After she said that, she looked at Bai Ye, with a hint of pleading in her eyes.
After all, their top priority now should be to rush to Bei City. Going to Lin City requires a detour, and even if they get there, it will not be easy to find anyone. Fang Yuxin knew that his request was a bit willful.
But Li Qingyun helped her a lot. If it weren't for this man's help, she would never have known so quickly that Bai Qianqian was her biological son, and that Fang Mengyao had poisoned her, but Li Qingyun helped her detect it.
Before the end of the world, she showed Li Qingyun a post on the Internet, reminding her to be careful and make preparations early. However, after Li Qingyun knew about it, she actually decided to return to her hometown to be with her family.
After the end of the world, communications were cut off, so she and Li Qingyun naturally lost contact, and she didn't know whether this person was still alive.
Now that she had arrived here, not far from Lin City, she would feel really bad if she didn't go and take a look.
Bai Ye was shocked when he saw the pleading look in Fang Yuxin's eyes. Without even thinking, he said directly, "Since you want to go, then go and take a look."
Fang Yuxin breathed a sigh of relief and subconsciously smiled at Bai Ye. Her smile was unusually well-behaved and soft, very different from her usual smile, which made Bai Ye lose his mind.
The two looked at each other, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense. Fang Yuxin abruptly retracted his gaze, blinked innocently, and said in a cover-up: "In this case, let's get on the road."
Bai Ye also felt a little uncomfortable, and subconsciously agreed: "Yes, it's time to get on the road."
The two looked at each other again, then quickly looked away. Bai Ye thought about it, got out of the car and said to the others, "This place is not far from Lin City. We are going to go over and take a look. If you are willing, you can follow us. If you are not willing, we will not force you. There should be a safe base nearby, so please do as you please."
Hearing him say this, the others started to think about it. They naturally didn't dare to leave casually. However, this place was indeed not far from Lin City, and there should be a safe base in Lin City. As long as they found a safe base, they would have a place to stay and they wouldn't have to continue to worry.
However, some other people had different ideas. Liu Zhenglin, Zhao Yan, and the Qian family had all made up their minds to follow Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye.
They thought more than others. Even if they found a safe base, what would happen? Ordinary people were not treated well in the safe base! And who knows how deep the water is in a strange place? But it was different with Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye. They were strong enough and not cold-blooded. It was safer to follow them.
They would not say these words to anyone else. Whether out of their own selfishness or out of gratitude to Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye, they were happy to see others leave.
So on the rest of the journey, almost everyone had their own thoughts.
This place is indeed not far from Lin City, but the closer to the safe zone, the more zombies gather. Not long after they got off the highway, they encountered several groups of zombies.
Fortunately, their luck seemed to be good, and they encountered only small-scale zombie groups, which were easy to deal with. However, the others who followed them suffered and were almost scared to death by the zombie groups that kept appearing!
Later, Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye had to lead their men to avoid areas where zombies were densely populated, and finally reached Lin City in a dangerous way.
After passing through the zombie encirclement, they gradually met people from the Lin City Security Base. It was already past eight o'clock in the evening and it was already dark, so there were not many people outside the security base, and they were all busy rushing back.
What they encountered was a truck with a huge carriage. There were quite a few people in the car, dozens of them. It was probably a mercenary team out on a mission.
When seeing strangers, these people are very alert and their eyes are full of scrutiny.
