Chapter 172 The Rain Stops
The smile on Zhuang Mingxu's face faded a little, and Zhuang Aiyi also shrank into Lu Weiyi's arms, his eyes evasive, obviously not wanting to get too close to Yun Lu. Lu Weiyi noticed it and said, "No need."
"I like children very much. I can help take care of Ai Yi, just as if I were adapting to taking care of children in advance." These suggestive words, spoken by a young girl who had just reached adulthood, left several grown men speechless, but the person who spoke did not notice.
However, Lu Weiyi's train of thought was quite peculiar. When he heard Yun Lu's words, he immediately felt like using his own child for training. He looked Yun Lu up and down without any concealment.
He really didn't understand where she got the confidence to dare to test her own son. His disgust was evident in his words. Just when he was about to mock her, Guan Tong came over quickly and pulled Yun Lu out of the room on the pretext of having something to do.
If I didn't need you...
Lu Weiyi gritted his teeth and continued to feed Zhuang Aiyi porridge.
"Mom, what are you doing?" Yun Lu was very dissatisfied with being pulled out by Guan Tong at the critical moment.
"Lulu, are you out of your mind? Can't you see that the whole team doesn't welcome us?" Guan Tong didn't know what to say to her daughter who seemed like she was possessed.
"As long as Weiyi doesn't say anything, they won't dare to do anything?" Yun Lu thought very clearly that these people were obviously relying on Lu Weiyi. As long as she held Lu Weiyi tightly, she didn't have to care about other people's attitudes at all.
"Can't you see that he's a homosexual and has no feelings for you?" Guan Tong lowered her voice and spoke angrily.
"He is not. It was that disgusting gay Zhuang Mingxu who forced him. Ji Lin told me everything." Yun Lu was still indignant when she mentioned this. Her tone was as if something that originally belonged to her was defiled by someone else.
"Lulu," Guan Tong said, trying her best to keep her tone calm. "Look outside. In today's situation, so many people are starving to death, freezing to death, or being washed away by floods. We are lucky to be alive. What we should consider now is to demonstrate our value in this team and then stay here, instead of having wishful thinking."
"Are you my mother? I'm young and beautiful, so I should have an excellent boyfriend. Why do you think that's wishful thinking?" Yun Lu was embarrassed and angry when her doting mother said this to her. "Why am I with Wei Yi? Isn't it because I hope we can stay here with a clear conscience? How can you say that to me?"
"But Lu Weiyi has no feelings for you," Guan Tong whispered, "He..."
"Master Lu" Guan Tong hadn't finished her words when she saw Lu Weiyi, who had hurriedly finished his meal, walking towards them with his teammates. She quickly controlled her emotions and greeted him.
"Yeah," Lu Weiyi nodded, "Qingyue said Aiyi still needs intravenous drip to consolidate his condition, you watch him."
After he finished speaking, Lu Weiyi handsomely flipped out of the window and jumped directly onto the motorboat docked outside. Soon after, the other five people also flipped out and stood on the yacht. Antonio checked the gas tank, and Ning Yuan drove out.
Yun Lu stood at the door with a crazy look on her face, looking at the figures of the few people going away. Guan Tong opened her mouth, her tiredness was evident in her words. She shook her head in disappointment and walked towards Zhuang Aiyi's room.

As soon as the heavy rain stopped, the flood was visibly smaller and its speed slowed down.
In one day, many families had worked overnight to make all kinds of strange water tools. Before seven o'clock, the surrounding water surface was already crowded with various tools. Many people stayed in some warehouse areas. From time to time, people with ropes tied to their bodies could be seen diving underwater and carrying something up after a while.
"Human potential is always unlimited," said Li Qing as he looked at the crowd that was busy again.
What the other people were thinking was, if they salvaged all that, where would they go to intercept the supplies?
"Where are you going? We'll take you there. Are the other three motorboats still needed? We also need to find supplies." Li Zhuang did not give Li Qing time to continue sighing.
"Use, use, use" are just kidding. No matter how handmade something is, it can't compare to a machine. At this time, the motorboat is simply a cheat. Even if it consumes a little gasoline, everyone will scramble for it. "We have a lot of people, so let's get some supplies."
"Okay, return it if you don't need it." Li Zhuang was just saying that. Lu Weiyi had space, and a motorboat was enough for them to travel. Most of the time, they would just use it as a decoration, so it would be better to lend it out and do them a favor.
"Don't worry, I won't lend it out. Take me to the Greenland Community. You guys are also going there to get supplies, right? Let's go together."
"OK." Ning Yuan was driving the motorboat among a group of manual tool workers, being extremely careful, fearing that if he went too fast, the air waves would sweep them directly into the water. Although the water flow was not strong at this moment, it was at least three or four meters deep, and it would be dangerous to fall in.
The three motorboats docked in the Green Land community have started working. In addition, the soldiers have also made various rafts, which are densely parked on the water surface of the community. It seems that they were made overnight.
After putting Li Qing down, the few of them went to look for their tens of thousands of pounds of potatoes.
"It's all flooded. Where is the shed where we stored things before?" Ning Yuan leaned over the water to try to see if he could see it. However, the flood was so muddy that he couldn't make out what was underneath.
"Just this piece," Antonio pointed to a bare area, earning a disdainful look from Ning Yuan, "It seems that it's not easy to find other people's warehouses."
"We have to get into the water," said Li Zhuang, and he quickly took off his clothes except for his underwear. He grabbed the rope on the motorboat and dived in.
After taking a few breaths and moving several times, I finally found the shed I had built earlier. This time it was Lu Weiyi who went into the water. He went straight in and collected the greenhouse and everything inside it.
"Is the shed broken? Are there any potatoes missing?" Ning Yuan asked the first thing Lu Weiyi asked as he came up.
"No, the house in front shared the impact of the flood, so water got in here and the potatoes are all here." Lu Weiyi took the big towel handed to him by Wu Yue and wrapped his wet clothes. "The water temperature is very low. I'm afraid I'll get cramps if I stay in the water for a long time."
"Let's take turns." Antonio also unbuttoned his clothes, ready to explore the place next time.
Where the motorboat passed, some people were wary of them at first, until the person who went into the water struggled and tangled the rope, causing it to vibrate violently. The people on the raft pulled the person out with all their strength, and found a person with two zombies hanging on him, who was being torn apart and bleeding profusely. Then no one paid attention to them anymore.
"Run, the blood attracts zombies." Ning Yuan stood in front of the motorboat, staring at the sudden surge of water around him, and shouted loudly after a moment.
At the moment when the people on the raft were stunned, zombies suddenly appeared, dragged the corpse that had been torn into pieces and started to eat it.
The frightened crowd began to scatter. The raft was not stable, especially since it was still in the water. In the excitement, someone fell into the water. After a cry for help, he was dragged into the water by a group of rotten hands that appeared out of nowhere. A stream of blood gushed out for a moment, and then dissipated with the turbid flood in an instant.
Later, some zombies even started to pull at the raft. People kept falling into the water and shouting for help. In just a few minutes, this area seemed to have become a Shura hell. All the tools floating on the water hid far away and watched this overwhelming massacre in silence.
"Are we... just going to watch?" Ning Yuan felt a little uncomfortable.
"Ning Yuan drove the motorboat closer, and I grabbed the raft and pulled them out as much as possible." After all, there were hundreds of lives lost, earthquakes, zombies and floods. Lu Weiyi knew how difficult it was to survive.
"Lie down and hold on to the raft, I will drag you out." Lu Weiyi took out a loudspeaker from the space and shouted to the panicked crowd. At the same time, he manipulated the small green branch to tie up the nearest raft, and pulled it over while Ning Yuan started the motorboat.
There were twelve rafts, but less than fifty people survived. They stared blankly at their companions screaming and shouting in the water. For a moment, only a trace of blood was left, and for a moment, only the whimpering of collapse could be heard.
As soon as we came out here, we saw a crowd of people watching the excitement not far away, and there were also cases of zombies dragging people. The crowded waterway in the early morning was cleared out in a short while. After all, supplies are not as important as life.
"Shall we... go back too?" Ning Yuan asked Lu Weiyi.
"The crystal core is delivered to your door, why are you throwing it away?" Lu Weiyi looked at Ning Yuan speechlessly, "Go inside, I'll hunt, and the rest of you should be careful of zombie attacks."
If the zombies are not dealt with, they will still be a hidden danger even if the water recedes, especially since they are downstream and countless zombies are washed down. This thing that has been delivered to their doorstep saves them the trouble of looking for it again. Lu Weiyi is bold enough to decide to make some money for free.
"Don't worry, water is my world." As soon as Ning Yuan finished boasting, a water arrow rushed out from the water and flew towards Ning Yuan's forehead. Antonio quickly condensed the metal dagger he was carrying into a thin shield to block it, thus preventing Ning Yuan from being pierced.
"If you can do it, so can others." Lu Weiyi quickly put the small green branch into the water, strangled the necks of several zombies below, and collected the crystal core in their brains.
"I was so careless, so careless." Ning Yuan patted his chest in fear, "This zombie is about to get angry."
"Everyone is advancing, whoever is slow will suffer," said Li Zhuang, looking around vigilantly. There was water everywhere, which was not very friendly to him as an earth-type mutant.
With the alert, several people were not attacked again. Lu Weiyi controlled the little green branch and did nothing all day, harvesting all the crystal cores. In the afternoon, he also brought Gu Qingji out. He had a mutated Ivy with him, which gave him an advantage over others in hunting zombies in the water.
When he returned home in the evening, Gu Qingji gave all the crystal cores he had obtained to Lu Weiyi, a total of more than three hundred, which was almost the same as their income in the previous morning.
"One thousand eight hundred and sixty-four." Zhuang Mingxu counted all the crystal cores that Lu Weiyi gave him and divided them into packages of one hundred and one. "That's more than what you got in a day of hunting zombies before."
