Chapter 251 How could this happen! (Third update)
Sitting behind Bai Ye, Fang Yuxin had to admit that Bai Ye's driving skills were indeed much better than hers. Her driving skills might be okay compared to ordinary people, but compared to Bai Ye, they were far behind.
From time to time along the way, they encountered roads blocked by piles of earth, or completely broken, with height differences at the broken ends, but Bai Ye brought her through them all safely. Eight hours later, they finally arrived at the hotel.
But this place has completely changed.
Fang Yuxin looked at everything in front of her and her face turned pale instantly. The three-story hotel was gone, including the entire parking lot, which was completely buried in the mud. After a closer look, she could see some traces of the building exposed in the mud.
Fang Yuxin could barely stand, muttering, "How...how could this happen? No...this is impossible! This can't be true!"
Bai Ye hugged her from behind to prevent her from falling. He couldn't keep calm even when he saw everything in front of him, but he was a man after all, and he had been a mercenary for many years, so he was always stronger than Fang Yuxin. He suppressed his uneasiness and comforted Fang Yuxin, "Xinxin! Don't panic! It's just that the hotel was buried, they may not be in trouble." When he said this, he suddenly thought of something and said quickly, "Did you forget? Didn't we sense that they were in trouble? And... and didn't we have the blood oath? Sense it again! They must be fine!"
After being reminded by him, Fang Yuxin finally remembered this matter. She suppressed the intense panic in her heart and sensed through the blood oath. With this sense, she immediately found that Chen Qiao and others who had sworn a blood oath were still alive. At the same time, she vaguely sensed that her family should be fine.
She finally breathed a sigh of relief, but she was too excited just now and still had no strength in her body, so she could only lean weakly on Bai Ye.
The two of them leaned against each other quietly for a while. Bai Ye saw that Fang Yuxin had recovered a little, so he said, "Let's look carefully. Since they are not buried in there, they must have left. Maybe we can find some clues."
Not to mention the people of the Fang family, if his men left, they would definitely leave a mark on him. Bai Ye was very sure of this. Unless the situation was critical, they would not have time to leave a mark!
He planned to take Fang Yuxin to look for them, and also wanted to estimate the situation of other people through those possible marks. If there really were marks, then at least they would not be in too much danger.
Fang Yuxin nodded, took a deep breath, stood up straight, and then walked quickly towards the ruins of the hotel. Bai Ye followed her, always keeping a distance from her. He was not too close to offend others, but he could ensure that he could protect Fang Yuxin in case of danger.
Fang Yuxin had completely calmed down. Not long after she and Bai Ye walked, there was no road ahead, only piles of mud. Judging from the situation, it should be caused by a mudslide.
Yes, it was raining so heavily and the wind was so strong, and there was a small hill near the hotel, so it was not surprising that a mudslide occurred.
Thinking of this, her face turned cold and she stopped searching blindly. Instead, she released her spiritual awareness as far as possible to look for any traces that her family might have left behind.
At this time, she had reached the late stage of Qi Refining, and her spiritual consciousness could be released further. Not long after, she sensed a wave of spiritual energy. After careful sensing, it was a plastic bottle buried in the ruins. The plastic bottle was wrapped in a layer of spiritual energy, which preserved it well.
No one can do this except her family!
So Fang Yuxin no longer hesitated and said to Bai Ye directly: "I found a plastic bottle and something is buried underneath. I'll go get it out."
Bai Ye asked her doubtfully: "How are you going to take it out? How deep is that thing?"
Fang Yuxin frowned. The plastic bottle was buried under a pile of earth eight meters deep. It would be too slow to dig it out. It would be better to use the earth escape technique directly. But when it comes to earth escape, Fang Yuxin thought of the ginseng spirit Abao.
So she simply grabbed Po from Qingmu Lingfu and asked it to help.
Abao was playing with the pink branches in the Qingmu Spirit Palace when he was suddenly caught by Fang Yuxin. He was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses. He crossed his arms and glared at Fang Yuxin in dissatisfaction: "Why are you looking for me?" After saying that, his whole chubby face wrinkled.
The spiritual energy in Qingmu Lingfu was rich, and the climate was mild, which made it feel very comfortable. The outside world was different. Although the spiritual energy was also rich, it was too mixed, mixed with zombie viruses, and the air was full of rancid smells, which made it very dislike.
But Fang Yuxin was the owner after all, so it just complained and didn't really get angry with Fang Yuxin.
Fang Yuxin was in no mood to coax the ginseng spirit at this moment, and directly ordered: "Eight meters down from here, there is a plastic bottle with a piece of paper in it. Bring the plastic bottle up to me."
When Abao heard this, he immediately turned into a beam of light and disappeared into the dirt. About a minute later, he came out holding a plastic bottle that was bigger than his body. After coming out, he threw the plastic bottle to Fang Yuxin and immediately said with a frown, "Okay! I'll give you the thing, take me back!"
"Wait a minute!" Fang Yuxin said anxiously, and released his spiritual sense to search carefully again, making sure that there was nothing else left, and then sent Abao back to the spiritual field.
Then she quickly unscrewed the lid and took out the paper inside.
"What's written on it?" Bai Ye asked as he leaned over to take a look.
The two soon discovered that there were two sentences written on the note, which were notes from two people. Fang Yuxin recognized at a glance that the sentence on the top was Qu Qianhe's note, while Bai Ye discovered that the sentence on the bottom was Chen Si's note.
The two sentences were very simple, namely "We are fine, when you see us, go directly to Bei City and meet us there", and "Take care, boss, we are fine, see you in Bei City".
It didn't say why they left suddenly, but Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye could guess a little bit from the desolation of the place. Obviously, there must have been a mudslide after the heavy rain, and they had to leave in a hurry.
No, maybe something else happened. They had no way of staying and waiting, so they could only go to Bei City first.
No matter what the reason was, now the two of them at least knew that they were fine, and that was enough.
The paper was attached with spiritual energy, which had not dissipated, which meant that the person who cast the spell was fine. Coupled with the involvement of the blood oath, Fang Yuxin could vaguely sense that his family and Chen Qiao were safe.
As for Chen Si and others, as long as they stay together and don't separate, nothing should happen.
Fang Yuxin subconsciously glanced at Bai Ye, and seeing that Bai Ye didn't look worried, she secretly guessed that Bai Ye should have some sense. Although she didn't know how strong Bai Ye's sense was, he must think those people were fine.
That's enough.
Fang Yuxin was completely relieved at this time. She thought about it and carefully put the note away. There was Qu Qianhe's notes on it, and she couldn't bear to throw it away.
After Bai Ye waited for her to put away the note, he said, "Since they went to Bei City first, let's get on the road quickly. If nothing goes wrong, we can get there in one day."
Fang Yuxin nodded silently but didn't say anything. Bai Ye looked at her expression and also remained silent.
The two of them knew that after the previous disaster, it was hard to predict the situation in other places. If it was before the end of the world, they would have taken a day to reach Bei City by bike or car. But now the situation was unclear, and it was good enough for them to reach Bei City within three days.
However, neither of them said these things. After they came out of the ruins of the hotel, they returned to the highway. This place was too close to the cracks and the road surface was severely damaged. Fang Yuxin could only let Bai Ye ride a motorcycle to carry her. After leaving here, when the road conditions gradually improved, Fang Yuxin simply took out an off-road vehicle and put away the motorcycle.
There was enough gas in the car, so the two got in. Bai Ye still acted as the driver, and Fang Yuxin sat in the passenger seat. After getting in the car, he took out his tablet and started checking the map.
It took her a while to find their approximate coordinates on the map. Then she moved her fingers across the map and looked at the location of Bei City marked on it. She couldn't help but feel excited.
Bai Ye had been driving silently. This place was quite far away from the hotel, and the road surface was not affected at all. There were not even any cracks. It was so intact that he had the illusion of being in another world.
He kept an eye on Fang Yuxin, and seeing her looking at the map with wide eyes expectantly, his heart suddenly softened and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
At this moment, the two suddenly heard a scream from afar. They were startled and subconsciously turned their heads to look in the direction of the scream.
As they looked, they saw seven or eight cars coming down the road in the distance, with thousands of zombies chasing after them. A woman was dragged out of the car by the zombies and was being eaten, and the screams came from her.
Seeing this scene, both of them felt that it was a little unreal. They had practiced in the Qingmu Spiritual Palace for seven days before. Although they didn't know the exact time, they realized that several days had passed. After they came out of the Qingmu Spiritual Palace, they only saw mutant plants and mutant sparrows, but they hadn't encountered any zombies.
Now that they suddenly saw it, they were a little uncomfortable.
However, they soon adapted to everything in front of them. Fang Yuxin's spiritual sense could be released very far, and she released her spiritual sense directly and found that there were not only young people sitting in the car, but also old people and children, as if they were dragging their families with them, and no one knew where they had escaped from.
She was not a heartless person. After frowning, she said to Bai Ye, "Go and save them."
Bai Ye glanced at those people and saw that they were becoming more and more dangerous. He said nothing, turned the steering wheel, and drove towards them.
