Chapter 248 Side by Side (Part 3)
The changes in the cracks made the two people feel very heavy, which made it more difficult for them to reunite with others. They just didn't know how much time had passed.
At this time, these lingering tree roots simply hit the muzzle of the gun! Fang Yuxin narrowed her eyes, and then a heavy machine gun appeared in her hand, with a magazine on it. She held the gun, pulled the trigger, and the bullets rained out. Those tree roots had never expected this to happen, and they didn't even have time to prepare, and were directly blown up by the bullets.
The remaining half of the body fell limply to the ground, lying dead.
Bai Ye clenched the hilt of the sword in his hand, ignored the tree roots lying on the ground pretending to be dead, and pulled Fang Yuxin away: "Let's go quickly and leave this place first!"
Fang Yuxin nodded, and followed Bai Ye's strength. The two walked along the edge of the crack. After walking for a while, Bai Ye stopped. He looked at the endless crack in front of him and said to Fang Yuxin: "This won't work. This crack is too big. I don't know how far we have to go to reach the end. We must find another way."
Fang Yuxin's face looked unhappy. She thought about the problem mentioned by Bai Ye, but she couldn't calm down when she thought about not being able to reunite with her family as soon as possible.
"Then what do you say we should do?" she said, suppressing her anger, her eyes fixed on the crack in front of her, deeply regretting not taking the risk to jump over it.
Bai Ye guessed what she was thinking and couldn't help but persuade her: "It's all in the past, don't think about it. It was so dangerous at that time. If you really jumped, you might not only not be able to see your family, but you might also fall into the crack!" At this point, he hesitated for a moment, patted Fang Yuxin's shoulder, "Yuxin, don't worry, they will be fine, you should trust them."
Fang Yuxin let out a long breath, took out his tablet and checked the map. Fang Yuxin used a little magic on the computer to seal up the power inside, so that it would not be consumed as long as it was not used.
She still remembered the location of the hotel, and after finding it on the map, she quickly found the location of the forest.
Bai Ye thought about it and couldn't help but say: "Don't forget this crack. The geographical location nearby must have changed. The map can only be used for reference."
Of course Fang Yuxin understood this logic. She nodded and drew a line on the map with her finger: "The crack is here, the road is cut off, we can't go back, we can only go from here." She pointed to a road. After passing through the forest, there was a highway there. As long as they were on the road, they could take out the car and drive back directly.
Bai Ye took a look and agreed with her decision. Although it was dangerous to go through this mountain forest, it was urgent that they got back to the road and could not stay in the forest forever.
Thinking of the attack just now, Bai Ye reminded: "There is no telling how many mutant plants there are in the forest. We must be very careful on the road ahead. Also, the weather was so bad before, with wind, rain, lightning and thunder. We don't know what the outside has become. We'd better take it one step at a time."
Fang Yuxin had no objection. She put away the computer, still holding the Miao knife in her hand, and did not take out the heavy machine gun.
The two chose a direction and walked forward side by side. They were attacked several times on the way. This time, they did not hold back and killed all the mutant plants that attacked them, and got several crystal cores. The crystal cores of mutant plants are different from those of zombies. They are both wood-based and purer.
Bai Ye thought Fang Yuxin was a wood element and didn't want them, so he asked her to take them all. But Fang Yuxin didn't want to take advantage of Bai Ye, so after taking the crystal cores, she gave Bai Ye some purified first and second level crystal cores.
Bai Ye didn't refuse, but after accepting the crystal core, he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. He liked Fang Yuxin and secretly regarded her as his wife. In his opinion, those crystal cores were suitable for Fang Yuxin, and it was entirely reasonable to give them to her. But Fang Yuxin deliberately gave him half of them, obviously wanting to draw a line between them and him.
He felt uncomfortable, but did not dare to question Fang Yuxin, so he took out all his anger on the mutated plants. As a result, Fang Yuxin received a lot of crystal cores again.
It was seven o'clock in the morning when they came out of Qingmu Spiritual Palace, and by the time they walked out of the forest, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon, almost two o'clock.
The two were so hungry that they had to find an open place nearby to sit down. Fang Yuxin didn't feel like cooking, so he simply took out some cooked food from the space and shared some with Bai Ye. The two of them had a very simple lunch.
Because of the previous earthquake, the road was in a very bad condition, with cracks of all sizes. Fang Yuxin thought about it and simply took out two motorcycles from the space. She and Bai Ye each took one and walked along the road, preparing to go back to the motel.
The road conditions were very bad, but motorcycles were not as picky as cars. Both of them had good skills, and Bai Ye's skills were even better than Fang Yuxin's.
At the beginning, the road was relatively flat, but there were many cracks, so the two of them didn't feel any pressure. But gradually, the road conditions became worse and worse, and Fang Yuxin was a little overwhelmed.
When Bai Ye saw Fang Yuxin almost fall for the third time, he finally couldn't bear it anymore and shouted at Fang Yuxin: "Yuxin! Stop now! It's too dangerous to go on like this!"
As he was talking, Bai Ye rode his bike in front of Fang Yuxin, forcing her to stop. Fang Yuxin looked anxious, she wanted to fly to her family immediately, but she had to slow down because of the bad road conditions!
Bai Ye jumped out of the car, walked over and pulled Fang Yuxin out of the car, and yelled at her with an ugly face: "Even if you are worried about the safety of your family, you can't ignore yourself!"
"Then what should we do?" Fang Yuxin also became angry. "We don't know where they are now, how they are doing, and whether they are injured. If we go back later, they will be in more danger! I really want to grow wings and fly back!"
Fang Yuxin finished speaking and was about to turn around and get in the car. Bai Ye got anxious and pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly, patting her back to comfort her: "Don't be nervous! I'll help you! I will help you! Trust me, okay?" After that, he held Fang Yuxin's face and forced her to look at him.
Fang Yuxin frowned awkwardly, such a close distance made her feel very uneasy. At this time, both of them were wearing protective clothing, which fit tightly against their skin, almost like they were not wearing any clothes. Leaning in Bai Ye's arms, she could even feel his hot body temperature through the thin protective clothing, and even the air around them seemed to become hot.
Fang Yuxin struggled to push Bai Ye away, but hesitated after meeting Bai Ye's gaze.
Those eyes shone like stars, reflecting her shadow, making her feel like he could only see her. The two were very close, so close that they could feel each other's breathing and heartbeat.
Fang Yuxin was stunned for a moment, but she still reached out and pushed Bai Ye away. This time Bai Ye did not resist, and she pushed him away easily. Fang Yuxin felt her heartbeat was abnormally fast. She stepped back cautiously, trying not to look into Bai Ye's eyes, her eyes wandering, not knowing where to look: "How are you going to help me?"
Bai Ye was also very nervous at this time. He seldom had such close contact with Fang Yuxin. The too close distance aroused his body's impulses. In order to avoid losing his composure, he did not resist Fang Yuxin's move to distance himself from him. He felt relieved but also a little disappointed.
So after Fang Yuxin asked, she found that Bai Ye was in a daze and didn't know what he was thinking. She suddenly felt a little worried and couldn't help but asked with concern: "Bai Ye, are you okay?"
Bai Ye heard it this time, and he shook his head subconsciously. Thinking of what Fang Yuxin had just said, he quickly said, "My skills are very good, I will take you away." After he said that, he suddenly thought of something, his face flushed suddenly, and he looked at Fang Yuxin nervously, fearing that she had misunderstood him.
Fortunately, Fang Yuxin didn't think too much about it. She hesitated for a moment and nodded very straightforwardly. She just found out that Bai Ye's driving skills were much better than hers. The road conditions here were too bad. If she continued to insist, it would not only be dangerous, but also waste time!
"Then it's up to you." After she said that, she suddenly saw Bai Ye breathe a sigh of relief. She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. What was this guy so nervous about?
She thought about it and had a feeling that it was not a good thing, so she did not ask, but parked her car and urged Bai Ye to get on the road.
Bai Ye got in the car first, and Fang Yuxin sat in the back seat. But as soon as they got in, they both regretted it.
The car seat was not big, and after the two sat down, their bodies were pressed tightly together. Bai Ye suddenly felt that he was simply asking for trouble, and he really couldn't bear this sweet burden!
"You... hold me tight." Bai Ye said this, his face reddening to his ears. But the car was going very fast, and there was no other place to hold on to. If Fang Yuxin didn't hold him tight, she would be thrown away as soon as the car started moving.
Fang Yuxin also knew this, so she reached out and hugged Bai Ye's waist. Because of embarrassment, she hugged more conservatively. But when the car started moving, she instantly felt a huge pulling force, pulling her body back.
Fang Yuxin had no choice but to wrap her arms around Bai Ye's waist, put her hands in front of him, and clasped her fingers. This way, she was completely pressed against Bai Ye's body. Bai Ye's back was very broad, and Fang Yuxin pressed against him, feeling the hot body temperature coming from under his clothes, and suddenly felt inexplicably safe, and even her nervous mood gradually calmed down.
She hesitated for a moment, then put her face against Bai Ye's back, recalling the scene when Fang Jintang and Fang Yuyang carried her on their backs when she was a child, and her eyes gradually became wet.
