Chapter 357 Shi Jiaojiao: Any unexpected gains?
Li Liangxian cursed as he walked, the gentle mask on his face had already been completely torn apart.
Now, if a fly flies by, he will catch it and scold it first.
But perhaps the woman's humble look pleased him, or perhaps he remembered the supplies he had stored in a secret place, and his emotions gradually calmed down.
At this time, Li Liangxian didn't know that the woman's eyes were getting colder and colder. At the same time, he didn't know that four people were following him quietly.
After coming out of the base, Shi Jiaojiao and the other three followed closely.
Because they were not too far from the base, their whereabouts were not exposed.
After walking for more than twenty minutes and completely losing sight of the base's gate, the four began to get restless.
Li Liangxian still had no idea of the impending danger.
And when he saw a ruin not far away, he immediately started jogging happily, and the woman beside him followed closely behind him, holding the child.
Shi Jiaojiao looked at the ruins not far away and squinted her eyes. This place was not unfamiliar to her.
The four of them had passed by here when they were driving to the base.
At that time, the Qin army also explained to them the origin of the ruins.
To put it simply, it is the prototype of an abandoned, half-finished base, which is only slightly lower than the current base.
The terrain here is relatively high and not on the coast. Half of S City was flooded at that time, but here not even the hillside was flooded.
The military leaders originally wanted to establish a base here, but not long after it started, the country found a way to send the newly researched materials.
The leaders of the base thought that instead of demolishing and rebuilding the place, it would be better to just move to another place and start over. Anyway, the scale of this place is not large and not much effort has been invested in it.
Over time, this place was abandoned.
After the new base was established, the troops sent people to take away all the usable materials here, leaving only some ruins that could not be taken away.
Shi Jiaojiao and three others followed Li Liangxian into the ruins. With the help of the cover, it was much easier for them to track.
As the distance got closer, the four of them naturally heard Li Liangxian scolding the woman next to him.
Shi Jiaojiao had a look of disdain on her face. She despised the kind of men who would go home and go crazy on their women after encountering trouble outside.
Wang Jia felt very suffocated listening to the scolding.
She and Shi Jiaojiao had different concerns. She just felt that her whole family was blind. How could they have been deceived by such a thing for so long?
In the past, the other party often came to her house as a guest, and the gifts he brought every time were very decent. She thought at the time that this person was really good.
But now, all the praises from the past are like a slap in the face.
After Li Liangxian arrived here, he carefully identified the road. Suddenly, he saw something and a look of joy instantly appeared on his face.
The woman beside him followed him obediently the whole time, without a trace of reluctance, but the child in her arms couldn't help herself.
This child was born after the end of the world and had never seen the prosperity of the past, but because Li Liangxian had good conditions, he had never suffered any hardship since he was born.
Although he was held in someone's arms, he felt uncomfortable after being held for a long time, so he kept struggling with his mouth wide open, as if he was going to cry at the next second.
The woman could only continue to comfort the child.
It was because of her pregnancy that Li Liangxian made up his mind to kick his ex-wife away.
The man was not without feelings for his ex-wife. After all, they had been together for more than 20 years.
But compared with the children who are related to you by blood, that feeling is so shallow that it will fade away at the slightest breeze.
After abandoning the person, Li Liangxian did not feel the slightest bit of guilt.
There's nothing he can do about it, since his ex-wife is a hen that can't lay eggs.
Li Liangxian was not very nice to women, but he still loved his children a little.
Seeing that the child was in pain, he reached out and took the child from the woman's arms.
Maybe it was because the man’s arms were wider, the child stopped making a fuss in his arms.
Wang Jia, who had been following her not far behind, was almost unable to hold back and take action.
In the past, she couldn't find Li Liangxian, so she could only endure it. Later, when she arrived at the base, she had to endure it again because she didn't want to implicate her friends. But now Li Liangxian has left the base, and there is no reason around her to hinder her revenge, and she really can't endure it anymore.
Especially the scene of him holding the child hurt her eyes even more.
Because of Li Liangxian's greed, he lost his parents and his home.
How could she allow the culprit to live a happy family?
As Li Liangxian, who was not far ahead, walked further and further away, Shi Jiaojiao also gave the other three a wink, asking everyone to be prepared.
Although there were four of them and the chance of the other party escaping was almost zero, this did not affect their vigilance.
Even a lion will try its best to fight a rabbit, let alone people who are trying to live a good life in the end times?
But unexpectedly, just as the four of them were about to take action, they suddenly realized something was wrong.
Li Liang, who was not far ahead, suddenly stopped. Shi Jiaojiao almost thought that they were exposed.
But it has come to this point, so it won’t have much impact even if it is exposed.
But before they could do anything, Li Liangxian rushed into a house that was so dilapidated that it was almost collapsing.
Shi Jiaojiao and the other three looked confused and slowly approached the house.
Li Liangxian's scolding could be faintly heard outside.
"Why are you standing there like a log? Why don't you come over and help me?"
"If I hadn't made preparations in advance, you would have died."
“…”
Shi Jiaojiao leaned over and looked inside from the window where only the glass frame was left.
Except for the little boy placed in the corner, Li Liangxian and the woman next to him were digging the ground.
They were expelled from the base for committing a crime this time, so they were not allowed to take anything away except some rations, let alone shovels for digging.
The two men used broken wooden boards on the ground to dig, but the wood was so brittle after being ravaged by natural disasters that it broke into two pieces with a "crack" after just a few digs.
The two had no choice but to use their hands.
Li Liangxian had never done any rough work before, and it was like this before and after the apocalypse.
For him, the most difficult days were when they moved from S City to the base.
But now, he had to take action, otherwise, if he relied on a delicate woman alone, there was no telling when he could dig out the things.
As for that woman, although she was always scolded after being raised by Li Liangxian for such a long time, to be honest, she had never suffered any hardship. After all, Li Liangxian had a lot of supplies, otherwise she would not have chosen this man in the first place.
She followed Li Liangxian's instructions obediently. She also knew that their family's food and drink would depend here in the future, so even though her hands hurt and her finger joints and the back of her hands were all scratched by small stones, she did not dare to stop for a moment.
Both of them were focusing on the open space in front of them and didn't notice at all that a head quietly popped out from the window frame next to them, then secretly retracted after a moment.
