Two years ago, Mingliang was burned by a fire-type mutant with supernatural powers and his life was hanging by a thread. It was Xu Bai's medicine that saved him. Later, the medicine developed by the scientific researchers was also given to Mingliang for trial as soon as possible.
Although they are called guinea pigs, not everyone can be one.
Some people want to be guinea pigs, but they don't even have the opportunity.
Look at the very faint scar on Mingliang's body. It can't be seen at all unless you look carefully.
Shi Qinghe was very clear that no matter where he was now, his life and the good days since the end of the world were all given to him by Xu Bai.
In other words, everything that exists in Dawn City was given by Xu Bai.
As a human being, you should know how to repay kindness.
He and A Heng had been going out for the past year or two, and the life there was a world of difference compared to the life they had in Shuguang City.
"Your wife was able to give birth safely, and you didn't deserve any credit? Do you think your wife could have survived the birth in the original Xinxing base?"
"Mingliang, we've known each other for a long time, and I've been very direct with some of my thoughts. I can tell you have some thoughts, but can't Xubai see that?"
Mingliang watched Shi Qinghe leave, and cold sweat broke out on his back. He hurried back to his home, and only came to his senses when he saw his son's sleeping face. He sat on the sofa in the living room, and after he understood what was going on, he slapped himself hard.
Qi Yueyue, who had just woken up, was startled.
He ran over to the sofa and quickly grabbed Mingliang's hand, "What are you doing? What happened?"
Qi's mother hasn't come back yet, so she has gone to buy food.
"I..." Mingliang looked at Su Yan Chaotian, his eyes full of worry for him, but in his mind he recalled Shi Qinghe's words. Yes, without Xu Bai, he was nothing.
Mingliang hugged his wife Qi Yueyue tightly.
Qi's mother hummed a song and happily came back with bags of food. After entering the house, she closed the door and said, "Yueyue, look what Mommy bought you. It's your favorite osmanthus cake."
Seeing the two people hugging each other, Qi's mother quickly turned around and muttered, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? If I had known, I would have come back later and taken Xiaobao out to play."
After putting down the things in her hands, Qi's mother walked out of the house.
"Mom, don't go. Brother Liang and I didn't do anything."
"Okay, okay, I didn't do anything. Mommy didn't see anything."
Qi Yueyue was annoyed and said coquettishly.
Mingliang looked at Qi Yueyue acting coquettishly towards Qi's mother, and felt that his previous thoughts were inappropriate.
Fortunately, Shi Qinghe reminded him.
Seeing that Mingliang looked unhappy, Qi's mother thought something had happened in the city and chased after him to ask.
Mingliang had no choice but to tell them that he would leave Shuguang City in a week to build a home.
Qi Yueyue was very worried that something might happen to Mingliang, and asked if she could stay at home. Perhaps it was because she was used to a comfortable life, or perhaps it was because the year two years ago left a lot of shadows on her, and she was afraid to see Mingliang get into trouble.
However, Qi's mother supported Mingliang very much, and even Qi Yueyue was scolded.
"What's there for a grown man to be afraid of? If the city lord wasn't here, would we be able to live such a peaceful life?"
"Can we still go out to buy groceries like before the apocalypse?"
"I'm afraid I would have starved to death in my original base."
"Don't you want me to be the base commander myself? That way I don't have to go out on missions..." Mingliang hesitated before asking. This was the fundamental reason why he was even more reluctant to go out...
Before he could finish his words, Qi's mother came forward, slapped him in the face, and used her supernatural power to splash water on him.
"Is your mind clear?"
"We have such a nice place to live and such a great living environment, what else can we not be satisfied with?"
"Look at this food I just bought from outside. It's just a pile of two crystal cores. If you go to the base outside Dawn City, wouldn't it take hundreds or thousands of crystal cores?"
"What makes you so arrogant that you think you can be the head of a base? Do you have substances? Do you have crystal cores? What do you have?"
"Look at how many people in Dawn City used to be base commanders, worried and exhausted every day. Let's not talk about others, just look at our own city lord. He's busy every day, either busy building Dawn City or busy going to the mountains to collect supplies. A girl in her twenties, even a mother would feel heartbroken to see her, not to mention raising an ungrateful person like you. Bah, I'm telling you, Mingliang, don't bring Xiaobao with you on weekdays, lest you lead Xiaobao astray."
"And you, Qi Yueyue, what did your mother teach you?"
"It's not that the City Lord is a saint, nor is it that she is kind. When everyone outside is killed, what can be left of Dawn City, which is left alone to defend it?"
"Everyone in those factories still has to rely on the base outside to earn their wages. When only Dawn City is left, everyone will have no work, no wages, and no money to buy food. We will be reduced to the situation at the beginning of the apocalypse, starting to steal other people's things and be on guard against others. How will we, the elderly and children, survive?"
Qi's mother became more and more excited as she spoke. She held Mingliang's ears with one hand and patted him non-stop with the other.
Mingliang didn't try to dodge and let himself be beaten, feeling extremely ashamed.
A week later.
Shi Qinghe looked at Mingliang, who was full of energy and working actively, and realized that Mingliang had figured it out, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
He had heard Jiao Nanmu mention the zombie wave two years ago. Xu Bai discovered that someone had betrayed Dawn City and opened the back city gate. It was a terrifying scene at that time.
If this happened again, he felt that Xu Bai would be in even worse shape.
Xu Bai and his group arrived in Rongcheng by train. As soon as they took the car out of the space, they saw Chu Liaoming running in front of their car.
In the past two years, Chu Liaoming has lived a rather ordinary life, which is completely different from her previous life as a rich lady.
Without the bodyguards controlled by the Chu family, they had betrayed Chu Liaoming long ago. Chu Liaoming could not call out for help, and in the end he had to work hard to provide for himself. He and Chu Liaoming, who once had princess syndrome, sent Ruo and the other two.
"Why are you following us?" Xu Bai asked as he got into the car first.
"I want to go back to Shangjing City with you."
"Who told you we were going to Shangjing City?" Xu Bai glanced at the people traveling with him and saw Lu Yaoyao raising her hand. "Chu Lai came to see me and happened to see me packing. I thought it was nothing important, so I told her. She didn't say she was coming. Did I cause any trouble?"
Lu Yaoyao had been in Shuguang City for two years and had long looked at people like Xu Bai differently.
She and Chu Liaoming were elementary school classmates. They had no contact in the apocalypse, but they had some interactions after coming to Dawn City.
Lu Yaoyao was worried that she had caused trouble for Xu Bai and the others, and felt a little uneasy. She raised her eyes and secretly glanced at Shi Qinghe.
This look happened to be caught by Xu Bai. Xu Bai remembered that Shi Qinghe had once advised her whether to have a relationship or not, and silently observed Lu Yaoyao.
