Chapter 172: Go out and find a place to wait for the earthquake
"No need." Meng Ci refused.
"We still have some points, we just want to go out for a walk."
Meng Ci thought for a moment and said, "In five days at most, we will be back."
Seeing Meng Ci insisted, Liang Xiu didn't say anything else. He just asked them to take their life-saving weapons and drive away quickly if they encountered danger.
Meng Ci agreed, then said goodbye and left the ward.
After going downstairs to the SUV, Meng Ci opened the passenger door.
Eggplant quickly stuck his head out from the back seat and rubbed against Meng Ci.
He cried out, indicating that he wanted to get off the bus.
Meng Ci touched Eggplant's head. Fortunately, the air conditioner was on in the car, so Eggplant didn't sweat.
"Okay, wait here for a while."
"I'll go up one more time, and then we'll go."
"Ouch!" Eggplant whimpered softly, and obediently lay back in the back seat, then looked at its owner eagerly.
Meng Ci looked around, secretly stuffed a chicken leg into Qiezi's hand, then took his things and went back into the hospital with Shen Que.
Eggplant got down from the seat with a chicken leg in his mouth, and lay on the car, eating the chicken leg while gushing.
At the same time, be careful to keep your voice down so that no one can hear you.
This time, their destination was Duan Yan and his friends' ward.
However, Meng Ci was quite surprised when he saw that Yun Jingcen and the other six people were in the room.
"Meng, Chen." Yun Jingcen was the first to greet them.
"Come in and sit down."
Several teachers who were sitting beside the bed stood up one after another.
Meng Ci nodded and walked into the ward and said, "Teacher Yun."
Seeing them packing up, he asked in confusion, "Teacher, what are you doing?"
Yun Jingcen explained: "Yesterday the doctor said that Duan Yan and Qingqing can be discharged from the hospital."
"So we came together today to help them pack up."
Hearing this, Meng Ci congratulated Duan Yan and Ruan Qing, and handed the plastic bag in his hand to them.
"These are the eggplants, cowpeas and other vegetables we planted earlier. They are now dried outside. You can take them home and eat them."
"Just consider it as a gift to celebrate Teacher Duan and Ruan Qing's discharge from the hospital."
Yun Jingcen and the others were too embarrassed to accept it, after all, the one thousand points that Meng Ci had paid for them had not yet been repaid.
But Meng Ci insisted, so Yun Jingcen and the others had to accept it.
Meng Ci, on the other hand, was very distressed at this moment.
After all, he came here to find an excuse to ask Yun Jingcen and the others not to return to Xishanye, but now that both patients are about to be discharged from the hospital, he has no good excuse.
"Teacher Yun, are you going back to the mountain after you are discharged from the hospital?"
"Our car is at the hospital entrance and can help you carry your things."
Meng Ci decided to ask about their plans first and then find an excuse.
Yun Jingcen smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness."
"It's just that our health is not very good, so after we were able to move into the base, we gave up the villa on the mountain and rented a new house in the base."
"We have moved our things down one after another these days."
Meng Ci nodded, this way he didn't have to make excuses anymore.
The earthquake was actually not serious. The houses in the base had just been built, so there would definitely be no accidents.
So Meng Ci felt relieved.
Although Yun Jingcen and the others refused, Shen Que still drove the car and pulled Ruan Qing and Duan Yan to the bottom of their building before leaving the base.
"It's just a pity that I didn't meet Zhang Mingtian and the others."
After remembering the earthquake, Meng Ci tried to stroll around the resettlement site a few times, thinking that if he could run into Zhang Mingtian and the others, he would find a way to get them down the mountain.
But unexpectedly, I never encountered it even once.
"Don't worry, the earthquake isn't big, they'll be fine." Shen Que comforted.
Meng Ci nodded.
Then, in the darkness of night, Shen Que drove to the location of the previous exchange.
The park, which was thought to be empty, was now bustling with people, and when they saw the off-road vehicles, they looked at them curiously.
The two people who stopped at the entrance were stunned.
Why are there so many people living in this place?
There was no other way, so Shen Que could only drive around the park and finally found an open space not far from the back door of the park.
Shen Que and Meng Ci opened the trunk, took out two large bags of things, then locked the car and headed towards their destination.
There are many people living in the flat areas of the park. Some set up tents, while others build simple nests with wooden boards.
Meng Ci actually understood it very quickly. It was probably because these people were reluctant to spend their points to live in the base that they lived here.
This park is surrounded by flat water and not far away is the river where Meng Ci and his friends went fishing before. It is also located in the city center, making it convenient to go everywhere.
This place is indeed suitable for living.
The eyes of the indigenous residents were full of vigilance. When they saw the eggplants, they stared at them intently. They felt that the dry buns in their hands were not tasty and wanted to eat meat.
Meng Ci and Shen Que ignored them.
Eggplant is quite capable and can even jump over a two-meter-high wall. It is quite easy for him to deal with these people, so Meng Ci is not worried.
The place chosen by Meng Ci and Shen Que was surrounded by several large flower beds and a few dead trees, and there was only about five or six square meters of open space.
Only Meng Ci and Shen Que planned to stay here temporarily, so they chose this place which is inconvenient to enter and exit.
The two men cooperated well and set up the tent. There was only one backpack left, which they threw directly into the tent.
Meng Ci patted Qiezi's head and said, "Take care of the house. We'll be back soon."
Eggplant stood proudly at the door of the tent, nodded, and groaned, indicating that he would complete it.
Meng Ci and Shen Que walked towards the off-road vehicle. The distance between the tent and the off-road vehicle was only about twenty meters.
Because it was dark, I walked two or three meters before I saw a few people wandering around the car, and some were even trying to open the door.
After seeing Meng Ci and Shen Que, they dispersed immediately.
The two men looked unhappy and walked over to take a look. They were relieved only after making sure that the car had not suffered any damage.
Meng Ci opened the back door of the car and pretended to take something out, but he actually took out a few boxes of canned cockroaches from the space.
There are only six left.
Meng Ci thought about it and felt that this should be enough.
So he took the things and left first, while Shen Que got in the car and turned it around, then turned on the headlights to illuminate the direction of Meng Ci.
Meng Ci would give each resident he met a can of food, hoping that they would pick up the things on the roadside and let the cars pass.
When these people saw the canned cockroaches and the meat on them, they took the things with smiles on their faces and carried the things away.
There were five households in total. After moving their belongings away, the heavy car drove in smoothly, then turned the car around and blocked the entrance to the tent.
Meng Ci thought about it, and seeing several flower beds around, he took out a few bed sheets and surrounded their area. This way, they would not be afraid of others seeing what they were doing.
Then he took out a night light from his backpack and turned it on.
There were many people around, so the two of them just ordered a portion of cold noodles each. They finished it quickly, then lay on the ground and looked at the sky.
