Perhaps it was because her life had been too comfortable, so she couldn't match Zhou Zhiguo and the others' physical strength. At this moment, the fool beside her seemed to see her reluctance, walked over to her, picked her up with his mouth, and gently threw her onto his back.
Chen Ruoruo sat on the soft fur, still a little dazed, while Erlangzi excitedly carried her forward. It was not known whether he did it intentionally or not, but he kept swaying in front of the wolf kings, causing continuous wolf howls.
Long Minnan frowned tightly, his eyes fixed on Chen Ruoruo who was riding on Erlangzi. As he watched her walk past him in such a swagger, a sinister and vicious look quickly flashed in his eyes.
But when he noticed Chen Ruoruo's gaze was looking towards him, he quickly lowered his head, not daring to let the other person see the expression on his face.
Bai Lusong sat on the ground and watched Chen Ruoruo's back gradually walking away. His eyes were full of unwillingness and resentment. He didn't understand why Chen Ruoruo would treat him like this.
When Bai Lusong thought about the ridicule and mockery he had suffered on the mountain, all because of her, he couldn't help but get furious, as if he was about to spit fire.
"Brother Nan, are we just going to let her go?" Bai Lusong clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging deep into his palms, but he felt no pain at all. The rage in his heart was burning, devouring his reason.
"Don't worry, there will be another chance..." Long Minnan looked at the backs of a group of people walking away quickly, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and then he said softly.
"Brother Nan, let's move on..." Cheng Xinghua also squinted his eyes and looked at the figure in the distance.
"Contact the people at the base first..." Long Minnan said as he glanced at the people lying behind him.
"Should we arrange for someone to follow them?" Cheng Xinghua asked
"No, let's go back and move the supplies out of the cave..." Long Minnan said, squinting his eyes and looking into the distance.
"Okay..." Cheng Xinghua nodded in response
"Brother Nan, I'm going too..."
"Yes, yes... I'll go too..."
The group of people who were originally lying on the ground, after hearing that Long Minnan was going back to move supplies, forced themselves to sit up, and raised their hands to signal with excitement in their eyes.
"Okay, then everyone, take a rest first, and we'll go get the supplies later..." Long Minnan nodded and said. He saw Zhou Zhiguo's intentions early on, including deliberately not taking the supplies from the mountain, pulling them to this distance of halfway, deliberately speeding up the process to exhaust their physical strength, etc.
"Okay..." A group of people answered excitedly, looking impatient, as if most of their physical fatigue had disappeared.
Long Minnan looked at the group of people in front of him. He knew that this was a choice Zhou Zhiguo deliberately left for him: to choose Chen Ruoruo, the uncertain factor, or the supplies that were readily available.
The answer is obvious. Moreover, even if he wanted to continue following Chen Ruoruo, except for Cheng Xinghua and Bai Lusong, other members of the base probably would not be willing to do so, as doing so would only arouse public anger.
Zhou Zhiguo naturally had no idea what Long Minnan was thinking. After walking a distance with his group, he divided the team into several columns and left in several directions at the same time to avoid being followed by the people sent by Long Minnan.
In fact, as Chen Ruoruo watched their team leave, she wanted to tell Zhou Zhiguo that there was no need for that. However, she couldn't directly tell him that because she had peered out and saw with her own eyes that Long Minnan hadn't sent anyone to follow them, so she adhered to the principle of less trouble being more, and in the end, she said nothing.
After that, only Zhou Zhiguo, Tao Wei and four others, as well as Qi Jiang and others, a group of about ten people, returned to the Shudu base headquarters with Chen Ruoruo. What surprised Qi Jiang and Zhou Zhiguo was that they were basically not attacked by mutant animals and plants along the way.
At night, the group stopped to rest
"Captain Zhou, do you feel that this journey has been too peaceful..." Qi Jiang whispered to Zhou Zhiguo.
"Well, it was indeed too smooth..." Zhou Zhiguo also noticed something was wrong. They had basically not encountered any obstacles along the way.
"Will there be any large mutant animals around?" Qi Jiang said. According to past experience, when encountering such a situation, there would be large mutant animals or difficult mutant plants around.
"Well... remind everyone to be careful and make sure to protect Miss Chen..." When Zhou Zhiguo heard Qi Jiang's words, he subconsciously looked at Chen Ruoruo who was surrounded by several huge mutant animals beside the campfire not far away.
With these few around, no other mutant animals would dare to approach easily, but just in case, they still have to be careful and on guard.
On this side, Chen Ruoruo was already exhausted after a day of traveling. She took out a blanket from the space and covered herself with it, then leaned on Erlangzi's soft and warm belly and fell into a deep sleep.
Seeing Chen Ruoruo sleeping nearby, Xia Xiaoying and the others all tacitly slowed down their movements to avoid making too much noise, and at the same time, they were always alert to their surroundings.
However, there was no unusual movement around until dawn. The whole night was so quiet that it was abnormal. This had never happened before when they were out.
Xia Xiaoying and Tao Wei looked at each other, and then at the same time looked at Erlangzi and the Wolf King who were surrounding Chen Ruoruo not far away. Perhaps it was because of them that the night was unusually peaceful.
"How is this possible?" Long Minnan and others at the foot of the mountain looked at the lush vines growing all over the mountain, their faces full of disbelief.
They had only been away for a day or two, but in that short period of time, these vines had actually taken over the entire mountain.
