Why do we subconsciously protect these seeds? It is not an exaggeration to say that we are protecting them with our lives.
Zhao Xian said solemnly, "Teacher Qiao, you are the most important. Do you know? If the seeds are burned, it won't be a big deal to go back and get them."
Qiao Xuejun knew that her actions were too risky. It was normal for Zhao Xian to emphasize this to her since he was responsible for her safety.
She was in the wrong and admitted her mistake quietly: "Next time I will think it over carefully and not take risks again."
Zhao Xian had emphasized this more than once. After all, if she was still alive, she could still try to farm. As long as the green mountains were there, there would be no shortage of firewood.
This adventure was completely different from her previous ones. In the past, she knew what she was doing, but this time, she was just charging into it blindly.
She thought to herself that it was not worth it. The seeds were still in the seed bank. Just like Zhao Xian said, she could just burn them and go back to get them. It would only take an hour from here.
It would be a shame if you got shot.
But when she saw the fire burning in front of the backpack, and thought that the bag was filled with seeds, the only thought that came to her mind was that she would not be able to farm if the seeds were burned.
What value would she have if she didn’t farm?
Zhao Xian approached her and said word by word: "To put it another way, this is the only seed. You don't have to take risks. Even if you can't grow food, you can still survive by eating fish. You are the most important. Do you understand?"
This sentence was completely beyond Qiao Xuejun's expectations. She was a little confused after hearing this and stared at Zhao Xian blankly.
The only seed doesn’t need to be saved? Qiao Xuejun also assumed in her mind that this was the only seed, should she save it?
Yes.
Her answer was completely different from Zhao Xian's.
She will definitely save him.
There is no point in living without value, how can you live without fighting for it? Besides, isn't it also based on the fact that Zhao Xian likes her that she has the value of producing food?
Qiao Xuejun was quiet for a moment: "...I understand."
Zhao Xian uttered two cold words: "Lie."
Qiao Xuejun froze slightly.
Zhao Xian asked softly: "Why do you have to save him?"
Qiao Xuejun didn't want to admit: "I didn't say..."
Zhao Xian: “I can see that.”
There was silence.
Zhao Xian moved closer to Qiao Xuejun, kissed the tip of her ear gently, and said in her ear: "Don't make me worry."
Zhao Xian simply couldn't accept the fact that Qiao Xuejun would risk her life to save a backpack of seeds.
What is more important than being alive?
He was lucky just now. If something happened to Qiao Xuejun... he didn't dare to think about it any further. He also didn't dare to think about what would happen next time.
Zhao Xian suddenly laughed, as if to mock himself: "Teacher Qiao, I have never been afraid of anything."
Qiao Xuejun's heart beat twice quickly because of this sentence.
She pursed her lips and stretched out her hand to push Zhao Xian away: "I know, I know, you talk too much. Why did you lock Zhao Yun and the others out? Get out of the way quickly."
Zhao Xian took a step back and opened the door.
He could see that Qiao Xuejun still hadn't changed her position, and her answer hadn't changed. He wanted to know why, but even when he asked this, she didn't say it. She didn't want to say it.
She kept it to herself and didn't tell him, so he couldn't ask now.
This is not something that can be solved in a day or two. Sooner or later, I will find a chance to figure out what she is thinking.
The door opened, and Zhao Yun and a few others outside had just dealt with the body and were on their way back.
After Zhao Yun came back, he reported to Zhao Xian: "The gun is a hunting rifle, probably left over from fighting bandits in the past. It's not a rebel gun. There's nothing else on the man."
He was probably just hungry and came to rob people. The information on his body showed that he was just an ordinary person.
After he fired the first shot, they had room to fight back, but they gave him one more chance. After Ren Wangwang made his recruitment declaration, he raised his gun and attacked the house, so they had no chance.
Zhao Yun felt that if they were the only ones out on the mission and Teacher Qiao was not there, this man might not necessarily die. His brother would try to subdue him and bring him back to the base.
After all, in such a chaotic world, pulling out a gun to rob is a bit excessive, but it is also within common sense.
Unfortunately, he didn't seize the opportunity. With Teacher Qiao here, his brother would not tolerate such an unstable factor. Let alone Teacher Qiao, even if it was Professor Huo, this man would not survive.
Since the last time Qiao Xuejun fell into the water and was kidnapped by a sea monster, the experts' protection level has been raised a bit. Someone like this who obviously came with a gun was completely intolerable.
Killed with one shot.
A few people continued to eat the remaining food, cleaned up the scene, and continued on their journey back with their backpacks.
Qiao Xuejun walked behind Zhao Xian, looking a little depressed.
Zhao Xian stopped and waited for her: "Can't walk anymore? Do you want me to carry you?"
Qiao Xuejun looked at the hand he extended and took two quick steps to catch up: "No need. I can walk by myself."
Zhao Xian withdrew his hand, but when he was halfway with it, she grabbed him.
She walked forward without looking at him, and just said, "Hold me, be steady."
Zhao Xian held her hand tightly: "Well, steady it." He paused, "But it's more stable if you hold it."
Qiao Xuejun was slightly annoyed, but also amused: "No! You have too much energy to use, right?" The backpack was already so heavy, but he still wanted to carry someone. He just wanted to show off his endless energy, right?
Zhao Xian smiled again: "Okay, I won't hug you. I'll hug you when I'm tired."

The rest of the journey was relatively smooth. We arrived at the Central Financial Building and saw patrol officers on duty. It seemed that some survivors had come to trade and ran into the patrol soldiers. They surrounded the soldiers and asked them something.
As I got closer I could hear: "Can you bring your family? Really? All of them? Including the elderly and children?"
"Is there anything to eat? What? Fish? Clams or shrimp?"
