Chapter 118 Sure enough, it's not a good thing
After Jiang Xian entered the small house, Gu Luan walked towards Area D.
It is not far from Area D, just a few minutes away.
She saw many soldiers along the way, each of whom was hurriedly moving through area D.
It's been a few days since the hurricane passed, but area D has not been completely cleaned up yet.
Countless soldiers are working hard.
Some of them were rescuing people, some were carrying bodies, and more soldiers were rebuilding houses.
The corpses gave off a strange smell. Gu Luan, wearing a mask, watched from a distance.
"Save my grandson, he's still under the house."
An old woman, with a face full of grief, held a soldier's hand tightly, crying and begging.
Gu Luan looked over and felt that she looked familiar.
After a moment, Gu Luan recognized who the old woman was.
The old woman was the one she met on the road before she came to the base last time. She was the one who brought her grandson and insisted on getting in her car.
Things change unpredictably. Not long after that, her grandson died.
In fact, it’s not just her grandson.
No one knew how many people died in this disaster, and her grandson was just one of them.
Gu Luan stood under a big tree with a piece of watermelon ice in his mouth.
A young soldier in his early twenties was carrying something as he passed by her and suddenly fell to the ground.
"Xiao Cheng, wake up."
Another soldier who was with him pinched him hard and kept shouting his name.
When Gu Luan saw this scene, he immediately stepped forward.
"I'll do it."
Her hand was held by someone and a familiar deep voice came into her ears.
Jiang Xian stood behind her without her noticing, and strode past her towards the two soldiers.
Jiang Xian supported the unconscious Xiao Cheng and walked towards Gu Luan, and gently placed him under the tree.
"Aluan, he has heatstroke."
Jiang Xian called out to Gu Luan.
Gu Luan nodded in understanding, took out a bottle of Huoxiang Zhengqi Liquid from the space and handed it to Jiang Xian.
Jiang Xian took it with one hand and leaned over to feed the unconscious Xiao Cheng.
Another soldier, sweating all over and with red cheeks, saluted the two men and said, "Thank you, comrades. Thank you for saving him."
"You're welcome. It's my honor. You've worked hard."
Gu Luan spoke softly.
When the soldier heard her words, his eyes turned red.
They will also get tired after working non-stop every day.
After being so busy for so many days, few people thank them and what they hear most is complaints.
Today, he suddenly heard a word of thanks and he couldn't hold back any longer.
Gu Luan pursed her lips, took in his expression, and said nothing more.
Jiang Xian lowered his head, carefully checked Xiao Cheng's condition, and asked Gu Luan to give him some more water.
Gu Luan took out a cup from her backpack.
It was filled with mung bean soup, but it was cooled and there was no ice in it.
As soon as the cup was brought to Xiao Cheng's mouth, he subconsciously opened his mouth and swallowed in big gulps, as if he had been hungry for a long time.
Gu Luan knew it very well.
Even if the base is not short of food for the time being, the food for these soldiers will not be very good.
After all, there are so many people to support in the base.
The current weather makes it impossible to grow crops on a large scale.
The food produced by the base itself is simply not enough to satisfy everyone.
Many soldiers are tightening their belts and dieting, and can only eat until they are 60% to 70% full at each meal.
Xiao Cheng gradually woke up, but he was still not fully conscious.
"Xiao Cheng, you're awake, that's great."
Seeing him wake up, another soldier hugged him with joy.
"I'm okay?"
Xiao Cheng leaned against a tree and smiled weakly.
He thought he would fall into a coma like the rest of his companions and never wake up again.
Unexpectedly, he was not dead!
"Thanks to him... Hey, where are the people?"
Another soldier was about to introduce Gu Luan and Jiang Xian behind him to Xiao Cheng.
Looking back, there was no one behind me and I didn't know when they left.
"Did someone save me?"
"Well, they're gone."
While the two soldiers were talking, Gu Luan and Jiang Xian, who did good deeds without leaving their names, were already sitting in the car.
Gu Luan handed Jiang Xian a wet towel.
After he wiped the sweat off his face, he was given a bottle of iced mineral water.
Jiang Xian drank half a bottle of mineral water before saying, "I've been chosen. They don't recruit women, so you'll need to pretend to be a man."
As for Gu Luan's quota, Jiang Xian has already discussed an exchange with a selected person.
He offered 50 points and the man sold the spot to him.
Anyone would be willing to get points by not going.
"Okay, when do they leave?"
"Tomorrow morning at six."
Gu Luan touched his chin and thought, "What exactly does Zhao Zhiyuan want to do? Why does he only choose single people?"
Jiang Xian looked ahead and turned right. “Few people can return safely after going on a mission with Zhao Zhiyuan.”
"This Zhao Zhiyuan, I don't know how many shameful things he did secretly. Those who couldn't come back might have been silenced by him."
Speaking of Zhao Zhiyuan, Gu Luan was filled with anger, "No, I won't be able to get rid of his old nest unless I move it."
Jiang Xian parked the car and couldn't help but smiled, "Okay, whatever you do, I'll accompany you."
Gu Luan hit him angrily, "Why do I feel like you are laughing at me?"
Jiang Xian quickly shook his head, "Aluan, you misunderstood."
Gu Luan was just joking with Jiang Xian.
It was just a casual remark at first, but now that I think about it, the idea of emptying Zhao Zhiyuan's house is feasible.
No one knows what Zhao Zhiyuan is going to do.
She must take this opportunity to empty his house and get some money back.
The gathering was to begin at six o'clock tomorrow morning, so Gu Luan decided to move out early.
I want to piss off Zhao Zhiyuan before he leaves and collect some interest first.
At three o'clock in the morning, Gu Luan and Jiang Xian approached Zhao Zhiyuan's villa quietly.
Two people were standing guard outside Zhao Zhiyuan's villa, and there were faint lights on inside.
Relying on Jiang Xian's ability, the two entered the villa without being discovered by anyone.
The villa where Zhao Zhiyuan lives is the most luxurious three-story villa in the base.
Although the decoration of the villa is not as luxurious as before the apocalypse, it is not much worse and has everything you need.
This is a base. There are too many smart people here, so the two of them can't do anything too extreme.
You can’t move big objects, only small things, to avoid being noticed.
All the rice, flour, grain, oil, seasonings, coffee beans and other things in the kitchen were moved out, and even the pots, pans, and utensils were not left out.
You wouldn’t know until you move here, this Zhao Zhiyuan is super rich.
There are several bags of rice and flour in a small kitchen.
The two large refrigerators are filled with frozen pork, beef and mutton.
A large refrigerator was also filled with scarce vegetables and fruits.
After clearing out the kitchen, Gu Luan and Jiang Xian entered a study.
The study room is dozens of square meters, and three walls are filled with books.
Gu Luan casually flipped through the books and simply took out all the books.
When she was about to leave, she discovered that there was a secret compartment in the study.
Jiang Xian found the mechanism and opened it.
There were several guns in the secret compartment and several boxes of bullets nearby.
"Pah, it really isn't a good thing."
Gu Luan cursed in a low voice.
There are so many guns in a study room. I wonder how many more there are in other hidden places?
