Chapter 240 Hello, I can take you there
"I can speed up my pace."
Qiao Moyan thought Meng Ci and the others were dissatisfied with his slow pace, so he said he would speed up.
If the two of them were in a hurry to go back, he could go alone and let Meng Ci and the other two go ahead.
Meng Ci looked at the eggplant and said, "No need."
"Let the eggplant carry you, and it will also make it more stable."
Qiao Moyan also looked at Qiezi. He didn't fall into the ditch just now, but now he was tripped by a big tree blocking the road because he ran too fast.
“Ouch!”
Eggplant got up from the ground and looked at the wood in disbelief. How could it have been tripped?
"Okay!" Qiao Moyan looked at the stupidity in Qiezi's eyes and nodded in agreement.
Meng Ci called Eggplant over, then patted its back and asked Qiao Moyan to ride on it.
Although Eggplant is just a wolf, it is intelligent and strong after all. When Meng Ci doesn't want to walk anymore, he will ride on its back, so he didn't refuse.
As for Qiao Moyan, Qiezi could feel that he had no ill intentions, so she agreed to support him.
In this way, the three people, the wolf and the dog continued on their journey back to the Xishan wild base.
Because they were carrying a wounded soldier, they walked and stopped for almost half a month before finally returning to the Xishan wild base.
"Comrade Meng!"
When Meng Ci and the other two were at the gate of the base, they unexpectedly saw Lu Chen.
Lu Chen was wearing a military green short-sleeved shirt and a pair of straw sandals. He had dark skin and looked very wild.
"Lieutenant Lu." Meng Ci stepped forward and greeted him.
"Where are you going?" Lu Chen looked at the big bags on the backs of Meng Ci and Shen Que, and then looked at their dusty appearance, and couldn't help but ask curiously.
Meng Ci smiled, then briefly talked about the trip to the M City base and introduced Qiao Moyan.
When he knew that this person came from the M City Base and was going to settle down at the Xishan Wild Base, Lu Chen extended his hand to welcome him: "Welcome to the Xishan Wild Base."
When Qiao Moyan saw the hand stretched out in front of him and the people around him, especially the many men, he felt his scalp tingling and his feet urgently wanted to escape.
But thinking of his purpose, he could only suppress his discomfort and shook hands with Lu Chen.
Lu Chen naturally felt Qiao Moyan's nervousness, and wondered if this guy had committed a crime? Otherwise, why would he be so afraid of contact with strangers?
"It just so happens that I also need to go to the points redemption point to do some work later, so I'll take you with me." Lu Chen said.
This guy has very delicate hands, and he doesn't look like someone who has done hard work or lived in the apocalypse.
Lu Chen narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but look up and down at the man in front of him.
"No, thanks!" Qiao Moyan quickly refused. The feeling of being stared at made him uncomfortable.
"I can go by myself."
Then he looked at Meng Ci for help.
Meng Ci said, “Don’t bother Lieutenant Lu, Shen Que and I also need to go exchange some things, we can just take him with us.”
"Okay!" Lu Chen nodded and didn't force Qiao Moyan to go with him.
As long as the information is entered into the system, we will know what this person has done before, so there is no need to rush.
When Qiao Moyan saw Lu Chen's sharp eyes leave him, he breathed a sigh of relief and took a few deep breaths.
But Lu Chen was not in a hurry to leave. He kept looking at Chen Que with a hesitant expression on his face.
"Lieutenant Lu, is there anything else?" Meng Ci could probably guess what Lu Chen was struggling with.
"Is that... an eagle?" Lu Chen asked uncertainly.
After all, when the eagle left the military area, it had a limp and many scars on its body. The German Shepherd in front of him was one-third larger than before, and its limp was gone.
When Lu Chen first saw Meng Ci and the others, he was looking for the shadow of the eagle.
When I saw the strong black German Shepherd, I couldn't believe it.
He even suspected in his heart that maybe Meng Ci and the others disliked the eagle's disability and threw it away, and then raised a new one.
However, this idea was quickly suppressed by Lu Chen. After all, through several meetings, Lu Chen knew that the two were not that kind of people.
While talking to Meng Ci and the others just now, Lu Chen had been observing the German Shepherd's situation.
After that, no one had anything to say, so after hesitating for a long time, Lu Chen finally asked.
Meng Ci nodded and said, "Yes, it is indeed an eagle."
"It...it has changed!"
Lu Chen remembered that when the German Shepherd was given to Meng Ci and the other man, it was already over seven years old, which is equivalent to being in its forties as a human being, and has entered middle age.
Even before the end of the world, the eagle had reached retirement age.
How come he has changed so much after just a few months with Meng Ci and the others?
"Eagle!"
When the eagle first saw Lu Chen, it wanted to get closer to him, but it had been trained after all, and it also knew that its current master was Meng Ci, so it did not move forward.
However, when it heard Lu Chen calling its name, its inner emotions finally overcame its reason. It barked twice and the eagle quickly ran to Lu Chen.
Lu Chen squatted down, reached out his hand and gently stroked the eagle's head and back, feeling its soft and warm fur.
He observed the eagle carefully and found that it was fatter and more energetic than before.
This made Lu Chen feel relieved, because he knew that Meng Ci and the others definitely did not treat Xiong Ying unfairly.
Lu Chen was silent for a moment, and suddenly said to Meng Ci and others: "Thank you!"
The tone was sincere and full of gratitude.
"Need not."
"Since the eagle has been given to us, we will naturally raise it as our own child and will not let it suffer any harm."
Meng Ci deliberately emphasized the word "child" because he was afraid that Lu Chen would take Xiongying back after seeing that his disability had been healed.
Lu Chen naturally understood Meng Ci's meaning and stood up to comfort him.
"Don't worry, I've already given the eagle to you, and I won't take it back."
Before the end of the world, the eagle had reached the age to retire. Now in the end of the world, many people are not well fed. Meng Ci and the others were able to raise the eggplant so well, and it was not unfair to it.
The reason why Lu Chen came to the gate of the base this time was just to bring people to deal with a fight between two families outside the base.
A soldier came over to report that the matter had been dealt with, so Lu Chen didn't stay long and left with the others.
Meng Ci took Qiao Moyan to the points redemption point and helped him apply for a points card.
Meng Ci still had tens of thousands of points in his points card, and he didn't use them on a daily basis, so he transferred two thousand points to Qiao Moyan.
Qiao Moyan refused, but Meng Ci said that since he brought people here, he should be responsible.
As for the points, just think of it as lending it to him. When you have money in the future, you can return it.
Seeing Meng Ci say this, Qiao Moyan had no choice but to agree.
Meng Ci would not do business at a loss, and he also had his eyes on Qiao Moyan's healing abilities. He only hoped that in the future zombie era, Qiao Moyan would remember their kindness and help them.
