Chapter 255 Actors Please Take Your Place
You can't really blame him for not being able to get along with the show. Zhuang Mingxu has never been so dramatic in front of him before, so he didn't understand what was going on for a moment.
Fortunately, someone among those who followed them out to watch the show was quick to react. Xu Sa strode up to Lu Weiyi, dragged Lu Weiyi away from Zhuang Mingxu, and angrily rebuked him, "Brother Mingxu, I really misjudged you. The plant-type crystal core that Weiyi left behind was for his own upgrade. How dare you ask him to take it away now?"
"But... this is my brother," Zhuang Mingxu responded very naturally.
"What about him? Don't you keep saying you love him?" Xu Sa said in disbelief, "You don't want to watch your brother die, so do you want to watch Wei Yi die?"
"Xiao Yi... still has a long way to go before he can upgrade, we can take our time to find him, but Ming Wu... can't wait any longer."
"How can you say such a thing?"
"Then what do you say we should do?" Zhuang Mingxu shouted and looked at Lu Weiyi, "Xiaoyi, I have never asked you for help in all these years. Please help me this time."
Xu Sa squeezed Lu Weiyi's arm hard, almost explicitly asking him to cooperate.
Lu Weiyi opened his mouth, but he really couldn't cooperate. He could only take out a "plant crystal core" from his pocket and hand it in the direction of Zhuang Mingxu.
But before Zhuang Mingxu could take it, Xu Sa grabbed it and said, "You can't just give it to him. If you sell it, you can get a jade space."
Seeing that the thing that was about to be obtained was snatched away halfway, Zhuang Mingwu was very nervous and said mercilessly, "What does it have to do with you?"
"This is the only crystal core that our entire team has found. We have to give it away at a price that satisfies everyone," Xu Sa said with disdain. "Jade space, we'll give it to you if you can take it out. If not, we'll sell it to Officer Zhao. Anyway, he said he can take as many as he wants."
"You..." Zhuang Mingwu's eyes turned red and he couldn't refute, so he turned around and looked at Zhuang Mingxu.
Zhuang Mingxu also looked helpless at this moment.
"The price I gave you before was given secretly. Now that everyone knows it, it is definitely impossible." Zhuang Mingxu patted Zhuang Mingwu's shoulder helplessly, "It's just that big brother doesn't have the ability to protect you now."
Xu Sa snorted and was about to send someone to look for Zhao Qiang, but Zhuang Mingwu stopped him immediately and said, “I’ll give you the jade space. My family will give it to you.”
As soon as these words came out, Zhuang Mingxu's eyes narrowed instantly. He quietly looked at Zhuang Mingwu's appearance and saw that he didn't seem to be lying, so he asked, "Is your family willing to pay?"
"Yes, I went to ask my grandfather this morning, and he said he would definitely give it to me." Zhuang Mingwu had paid a lot more for nothing, and he was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but he didn't dare to offend Zhuang Mingxu again.
He could only say nice things and ask her to leave the plant crystal core to him, while he hurried back to get the jade space.
Watching the man walk away, Zhuang Mingxu put away the expression on his face, stared in the direction where he was going and fell into deep thought.
Lu Weiyi, on the other hand, was delighted to have an extra jade space out of nowhere, and the other members of the team were even happier.
Not long after, Zhuang Mingwu actually brought a jade space. Although it was only about 70 square meters and added some top-grade jade, Zhuang Mingxu readily handed the plant crystal core to him.
After seeing them off, Zhuang Mingxu's face became much heavier, "Xiaoyi, we need to speed up our itinerary planning again."
"What's wrong?" They had already planned to leave tomorrow, and it would be impossible to leave sooner.
"Mingwu is not so useful as to be worth exchanging for the jade space, and Zhuangjia is not a place that emphasizes overly sentimental things." Zhuang Mingxu's judgment was very cold-blooded but also pertinent.
"What do you mean?" A year of experience was not in vain. Lu Weiyi immediately understood what the other party meant.
"Not really. You're still in the team. They are your family after all. They won't ignore you, right?" Gu Qingyue spoke with the innocence and beauty of someone who grew up in a comfortable environment.
The others didn't say anything.
"Uncertain" Zhuang Mingxu has no idea about the Zhuang family's supplies and will not make a decision. "We will prepare for the worst."
Lu Weiyi nodded seriously, thought for a while, and looked at Qi Lin, "Cong Qing will definitely ask about my uncle's news. You go meet him, and then quietly leave the base to find my uncle. Ask him to come back as soon as possible, as a form of insurance for us."
As he said that, he handed Qi Lin a bag of crystal cores and said, "Safety first."
"Yes," Qi Lin took it solemnly.
"Antonio, go with Lu Xi and make some weapons as soon as possible." He took out the smallest jade space left by Zhao Qianggang and placed it on the table, "One for each of you and it's yours."
Lu Weiyi knew that Antonio had always wanted to make a space for Dean to store things, and this was a good time to hang a carrot and let the donkey do work.
"Deal" Antonio said without hesitation.
"Others, please follow yesterday's arrangements and try to act as if nothing has happened. Try to find out as much information as possible."
"receive!"
Everyone received their own tasks and the group disbanded on the spot.
After breakfast, Lu Weiyi discussed the plans for the next few days with Zhuang Mingxu. After making sure that everything was foolproof, he prepared to go out and draw some maps of Kyoto.
Before leaving, Zhuang Aiyi stood beside Zhuang Mingxu and looked at him eagerly, with an expression as if he wanted to go but didn't dare to say it.
"Want to go?" Lu Weiyi asked.
Zhuang Aiyi thought about it for a moment and shook his head slightly.
He could feel that the atmosphere at home had become tense. Compared to the relaxation of yesterday, everyone seemed to be unusually busy.
"Let's go." Lu Weiyi stretched out his hand to him.
"I'll take care of him at home, you take care of him..." Zhuang Mingxu was worried about him going out alone, and he had confidence in his special abilities. Taking care of a child would be a pure burden, and it would be troublesome to get away at the critical moment.
"It's okay," Lu Weiyi said.
A man climbed down from the roof of the villa nimbly and was between the three people in an instant, "I'll go with you."
Before Lu Weiyi could refuse, Li Zhuang asked, "Don't you need a driver?"
lack……
Lu Weiyi did not refute. He looked up at the villa and heard him say, "Xu Sa doesn't need too many people, Qingyue and Qingji were left at home."
He glanced in the direction of the room, not knowing if he saw anyone, but spoke in a voice that was neither too loud nor too low but loud enough for everyone to hear, "Don't worry, our Therapist Xu is very well behaved."
Lu Weiyi was mainly worried that Xu Yi would cause trouble for them at this time. Hearing him say this, he knew that there was no problem.
"Uncle is taking you out, do you want to go?" Li Zhuang asked Zhuang Aiyi.
"Go," Zhuang Aiyi answered crisply, looking at Zhuang Mingxu, "Big Dad, is it okay?"
Zhuang Mingxu glanced at Li Zhuang with a calm expression, and handed over Zhuang Aiyi, who was holding his hand, and said, "Sorry for the trouble."
"It's no problem for a family." Li Zhuang picked up Zhuang Aiyi and threw him into the air. Zhuang Aiyi fell down with a loud laugh and was caught by him, shouting, "Uncle, I want more."
Zhuang Mingxu watched Li Zhuang throw the person out of the villa with him in his arms, and Lu Weiyi followed behind them. He suddenly felt as if he was left behind.
Shaking his head to get rid of the thought, he slowly began to exercise in the yard.
Everyone in the villa was busy with their own business. In a place where no one noticed, in an inconspicuous position in front of the gate, a tiny camera was working diligently.
In the monitoring host room, Zhuang Mobai looked at the silent villa, slowly revealed a perverted smile, and said to the person beside him in a brisk tone, "Plan..."
"start!"
…
At ten o'clock in the morning, the entire Kyoto base was already bustling with activity. Teams searching for supplies and hunting zombies were queuing up at the door waiting to go out; the trading halls on the street also opened their doors early to welcome guests, and some of the pedestrians coming and going were still as glamorous as they were before the end of the world.
The ragged and hungry people in other bases seemed to not exist here. At first glance, the impression given was no different from before the end of the world.
Most of the vehicles on the road are electric cars from before the end of the world. Those who fill up with gasoline are either the top leaders of various forces or teams preparing to go out. Gasoline is something that people are reluctant to consume nowadays.
Lu Weiyi and the other two were no exception. They were driving a small two-seater electric car that looked like the small commuter car used before the apocalypse.
This was sent by the Zhuang family this morning. Their attitude changed so much overnight that Lu Weiyi agreed more and more with Zhuang Mingxu's idea.
Lu Weiyi wanted to release his mental power to scan the surrounding area and draw a map. It was inconvenient to hold someone in his arms, so little Zhuang Aiyi sat on Li Zhuang's lap. His already strong body seemed particularly crowded in the small car, and with the addition of the child, the driving seat became even more crowded.
The weather was getting hot, and soon, sweat appeared on Zhuang Aiyi's forehead. He still did not let Li Zhuang close the window. The child looked around with curiosity. Having been to many bases, the "knowledgeable" Zhuang Aiyi commented, "Uncle, this base looks really good."
"Is this place better or our base better?" Li Zhuang teased him.
"Our base is good. Our base has the sea and we can sail a small boat." Zhuang Aiyi is still at the age where he loves to play. He has been locked up in a villa for several days here. Naturally, it is not as relaxed and free as on the island.
"Then I'll take you fishing when we get back," Li Zhuang coaxed him. Seeing a freezer at the entrance of the roadside trading hall, he asked, "Aiyi, do you want ice cream? Isn't it good for me to buy you some?"
"Is it okay?" Zhuang Aiyi turned to look at Lu Weiyi and whispered, "Little Daddy, can Aiyi eat a little bit?"
"I can only eat a little bit." Lu Weiyi kept painting with the brush in his hand without raising his head. The surrounding scene appeared on the drawing paper as he wrote. If you look closely, there are even some places that cannot be seen on the ground. Some of them were marked as warehouses, some were marked as food, and some were long unknown secret passages.
"Great!" Zhuang Aiyi looked at Li Zhuang with burning eyes. Li Zhuang smiled and drove the car closer to the store. He shouted to the boss outside twice, asking him to pack a few boxes and send them over.
