Chapter 115 Entering Qingyuan City
As soon as you enter the door, a wave of warm air accompanied by the aroma of food hits you in the face, making you feel instantly at ease from heart to body.
"You're finally back. Let's have a bowl of bone soup to warm yourself up." Xi Shi quickly scooped four bowls of whitish bone soup from the pot and placed them on the table.
As soon as Zhuang Aiyi entered the room, she stuck close to Zhuang Mingxu, holding his hand with her little hand. Zhuang Mingxu felt guilty and distressed, and asked him in a low voice what he had eaten and what he cooked at home.
"Have you eaten?" Lu Weiyi brought a bowl to Zhuang Mingxu and then asked the others.
"We've already eaten." Gu Qingyue reached out and brushed the snow off Gu Qingji's hair. "Why are you so late? Did something happen?"
"No, it ran a little far." Gu Qingji obediently lowered his head slightly and let him fiddle with it, saying in a gentle voice.
"There wasn't a single zombie on the road, and we didn't encounter anything." Lu Xi drank half a bowl of soup, squinting his eyes comfortably.
"There wasn't a single zombie yesterday..." Li Zhuang said softly, looking at Lei Zi, "Did you encounter any on the road?"
Lei Zi shook his head and said, "Not even one."
"Did it disappear?" Ning Yuan said happily.
"It is also possible that he has become stronger by hiding, just like the reappearance of superpowers in humans." Zhuang Mingxu fed a mouthful of his soup to Zhuang Aiyi and said to Ning Yuan.
"Please don't do that. If that really happens, there will be no way for me to survive." Ning Yuan leaned back on the sofa, looking hopeless.
"Maybe. After all, animals can become zombies like humans, so who can guarantee that they can't have superpowers like humans?" Li Qing was sitting next to Lin Yimu. He was just talking to Lin Yimu. When he heard their conversation, he asked Lu Weiyi, "When are you going to Qingyuan Base?"
He had asked this question during the day, and everyone's unanimous answer was to wait for Lu Weiyi to come back and discuss it with him. Although they said "discuss", Li Qing realized that it was just listening to his opinion. Maybe...
It's just that this person hasn't realized that he is the leader of this group of people.
"Wait until the snow stops." When the snow stops, the weather will get hot again. If we wait until the snow melts completely, the road will become muddy and difficult to walk on. Lu Weiyi thought it would be best to leave while the snow melts but not completely. "What about you guys?"
"We?" Li Qing shrugged. "I was originally thinking of finding a car, but now I see you're driving a truck back. Do you mind taking a ride?"
"Whatever you want." Lu Weiyi would not refuse for Lin Yimu's sake.
"Thank you very much. I may have to bother you for a few more days. I'll ask the military to send the consumed supplies back when I get back." Li Qing made the supplies clear. After all, the daily consumption of seven people was not a small amount, and they didn't skimp on any meal. Not only did they make sure they were full, but they also paid attention to the quality of the dishes.
"Captain Li has helped us before. Treating you all to a few meals is nothing. Don't be so polite." Li Qing is Li Mu's son. Li Mu has the final say in the army now. It will definitely do no harm to have a good relationship. Zhuang Mingxu was afraid that Lu Weiyi would really accept it, so he spoke directly for him.
"Then I won't be polite. Just let me know if you need me any help in the future." Li Qing originally thought that Lu Weiyi had the final say, but when he saw that no one objected when Zhuang Mingxu spoke, he was a little confused for a moment. He and Zhuang Mingxu were old acquaintances, so he didn't bother to be polite.
Zhuang Mingxu: “No problem.”
The next day, Lu Weiyi went out again after breakfast. This time he brought Zhuang Mingxu and Zhuang Aiyi with him. Zhuang Aiyi was obviously very happy, and her chubby little face was full of smiles even though she was wearing thick clothes.
"How about letting him sit in the back? Is your legs okay?" Lu Weiyi felt worried when he saw Zhuang Mingxu holding him and sitting him on his lap.
"It's just a knee injury. It doesn't hurt now. It's also dangerous for his child to sit in the back seat," said Zhuang Mingxu.
"Little daddy, Aiyi is sitting on the chair, so big daddy won't be crushed." Zhuang Aiyi was still a little scared subconsciously when facing Lu Weiyi who ignored him.
Lu Weiyi glanced at him and saw that Zhuang Mingxu had his legs apart, so he let him sit between his legs. In such a small space, the little guy could actually sit there. "Well, tell me when you are hungry, and I will bring you some milk."
"Okay," Zhuang Aiyi responded obediently.
Lu Weiyi drove the car into another road, took out some children's candies, chocolates, yogurts and jellies from the space and handed them all to Zhuang Aiyi, "Take whatever you want to eat."
"Thank you, little daddy." Zhuang Aiyi looked at Lu Weiyi with sparkling eyes, took it and gave it to Zhuang Mingxu first, "Big daddy, you eat it."
"Dad won't eat, Aiyi can eat by himself. But you can't drink yogurt. It's too cold and it will hurt your stomach. When you go back, ask Grandpa Xishi to heat it up for you before you drink it, okay?" Zhuang Mingxu said as he stuffed all the things into a shoulder bag that Xishi had sewed for him.
"Okay," Zhuang Aiyi responded, opened a candy and handed it to Lu Weiyi's mouth, "Little daddy, eat it."
Lu Weiyi was stunned for a moment. He was not used to such a close relationship. The last time a child came into contact with him was when Lu Xi was a child. For him, that was a memory from more than ten years ago. He met Zhuang Aiyi's clear eyes and Zhuang Mingxu's gentle smile.
Lu Weiyi pursed his lips, leaned over and put it in his mouth. It was very sweet, and seemed to have the smell of a child's milk. It was an indescribable feeling.
"Thank you Aiyi," Lu Weiyi said, looking ahead.
"You're welcome." Zhuang Aiyi seemed very happy, his voice was full of joy. He turned around and stuffed another candy into Zhuang Mingxu's mouth before starting to eat it himself.
"The candy selected by Ai Yi is really sweet," praised Zhuang Mingxu.
"It was my little dad who chose the candy," Zhuang Aiyi said, but buried her head in Zhuang Mingxu's arms, smiling with a blushing face.
Lu Weiyi turned his head and glanced at the two of them, and suddenly seemed to understand why Zhuang Mingxu wanted a child that belonged to both of them.
He is the witness of their most intimate relationship, the connection and continuation of their bloodline.
After teasing Zhuang Aiyi for a while, Zhuang Mingxu asked what he had always wanted to ask but never had the chance to ask, "Xiaoyi, have you ever thought about what to do with these people after you go to the base?"
"Antonio and Li Zhuang said they wanted to follow me, but the others didn't say anything, and I don't know where they are going." Lu Weiyi thought of what Antonio and Li Zhuang said that day, and he didn't know if it was true. "Xu Sa should also follow me." After all, he didn't have any other relatives or friends.
Zhuang Mingxu: "Have you ever thought about forming a team of superpowers with them? When I left, the Qingyuan base had already established a team centered around the major families. I heard from Ning Yuan before that it is now headed by the Li family and the Gu family."
Lu Weiyi shook his head. He had no target. "They?"
Zhuang Mingxu said, "Li Zhuang, Liu Rui, and Antonio all have strong superpowers, and now Gu Qingji also has superpowers. There is basically no one among the others who is a drag. Along the way, their personalities are fine, so they should have good abilities and good coordination to form a team."
"Wu Yue now has a batch of supplies. If we don't have a capable team to deter others, it will be easy to attract covetous people. Especially since your space is too large and we don't know if it has been leaked. If it is leaked and arouses suspicion, it will be a disaster for you without someone on hand."
Zhuang Mingxu only thought of these, but when he reminded him, Lu Weiyi thought of more. It was not just his space, but the more dangerous thing was Dean's supernatural power, the healing supernatural power. There were only three of them in the Qingyuan base in the previous life.
Zhuang Mingxu's team had hundreds of people at the time, and even then there were still people who secretly wanted to attack Dean, not to mention that now they are almost alone.
"Sure," Lu Weiyi said, "Antonio, Li Zhuang and Xu Sa should follow me. The Gu Qingyue brothers have no relatives or friends, so they are likely to follow us. Xiong Jie... although he is quite skilled, he has a poor health Xi Shi with him, so he will probably follow us as well. Then I'll go back and tell them?"
"No, let them bring it up themselves." Zhuang Mingxu was very familiar with this matter and gave Lu Weiyi some instructions, forcing them to take the initiative to bring it up.
…
It snowed heavily for three days and three nights. Luo Yunqi drove to collect all the snow nearby. The piled snow occupied a quarter of the space.
Early in the morning of the fourth day, as soon as the heavy snow stopped, the temperature rose sharply.
By the time I had breakfast, the snow in the yard had turned into a small river.
The group rushed to the Qingyuan base before the mud got too deep.
Near noon, the car finally arrived at its destination covered in mud and water.
After saying goodbye to Li Qing and the others, the group was silent for a long time as they looked at the words "Qingyuan Safety Base" on the gate.
Zhuang Mingxu gave Lu Weiyi a look, and Lu Weiyi understood immediately. He said to Ning Yuan, who was looking happy, "Ning Yuan, ask if the cost of entering the base has increased, and see what is used in exchange."
"We have already registered our names. Although our own cannot be used, they can just go in directly, right?" Ning Yuan said, taking out a card from his pocket. It happened to be the temporary residence permit of the Qingyuan base, with the names of Liu Rui and Xu Sa written on it...
"Why does this name look familiar to me?" Xu Sa moved closer and wanted to continue looking, but Ning Yuan stuffed it back into his pocket and said, "You're wrong."
"It's better not to use it. Try not to let people link the death of Li Ji and his group to us." Zhuang Mingxu was a cautious person. "We two have the base information, so we can go in. The others can hand it over again."
"Okay, then I'll ask about the price." Ning Yuan carefully crossed the puddle and walked towards the entrance of the base.
Lu Weiyi looked at the others and said, "I will collect all the supplies you have when you enter the base, and give you some extra supplies to ensure that you can live in the base temporarily. Is there any place you want to go?"
"Dean and I will follow you. Just provide the food." Antonio put his arm around Dean and took the lead in expressing his opinion.
"Yeah," Dean nodded heavily and made a hugging gesture with his hands, "hug...my thighs," which made several people laugh.
Li Zhuang, who was smoking against the car, flicked the ash and blew a smoke ring. In the smoke, he looked back at Lu Weiyi with a nonchalant smile on his lips, "I'm relying on you to support me."
Lu Weiyi gestured OK and looked at everyone else.
