Shi Qinghe didn't care about other people. She simply said hello and turned her attention to Ji Heng and the others.
"You don't know, when I first arrived here, I saw the corpses of animals all over the place. I was so scared that I thought you were in danger. I was so scared that I almost flew away."
Shi Qinghe has always been a happy person. Her exaggerated tone and flamboyant movements made Xu Bai laugh.
"Also, I've noticed the railway here is only halfway built. Do we need to finish it now and then return to Dawn City together?"
"Oh, yes! At that time, a man came to give you some clothes. Did you see him? He didn't return to our city afterwards. Could he have been killed after coming here?"
Xu Bai shook his head. "I didn't see anyone. We called you that day, and not long after that, we were trapped in another place. We didn't get out until today."
"If he wasn't murdered, there's no reason why he didn't go back to Dawn City." Shi Qinghe frowned, put his hands on his hips, and was very puzzled.
"What's your name?"
"Tang Weilei."
Xu Bai used her system panel to find out Tang Weilei's personal information. After confirming that he was not dead, she informed Shi Qinghe.
Only then did Shi Qinghe realize that something was wrong, but he was still unwilling to believe that in this day and age someone would secretly take things and sell them and then not return.
Xu Bai noticed that Shi Qinghe's face looked bad, so he took him to the train platform and pressed a button on an operating table beside the platform to retrieve the surveillance footage of the recent period.
"Is this the man?"
The time was set to one day two months ago. A man carrying a lot of bags got off the train and walked towards the direction where they were building the railway. At this point, the surveillance footage was cut off. After a long time, the man's figure appeared in the surveillance again, got on the train, and got off at another station...
If they couldn't find them, normally they should have asked Shi Qinghe for instructions and then took a bus back to Shuguang City. However, they didn't contact me and turned around to go somewhere else. It's hard not to think of the worst.
Shi Qinghe was silent for a long time after watching the video, then laughed at himself and said, "It's my fault for mismanagement."
"Don't think too much, people's hearts are unpredictable."
Even though she usually turns on the "City Lord's Prestige" badge, there will be bonus points to induce them to trust and obey Dawn City, but it is not absolute. Those who have psychic abilities like her will not be easily affected.
"We plan to rest for the night and start building the railway tomorrow. We have a lot of people, so I believe we can finish it quickly."
Xu Bai had discussed this matter with Yisaro. Yisaro and others didn't know where to choose to live, so they followed them to build the base first, and they would eat one day at a time. After the base was completely built, they would make other plans.
Issaro himself had different ideas.
She wanted to see what else Xu Bai had that made him worthy of being chosen by destiny.
"Okay, I'll go with you. I'll go back to Dawn City early tomorrow morning. I'll just be glad to see that you're all okay."
Shi Qinghe nodded as she spoke, and her eyebrows widened when she mentioned Shuguang City. "My sister wanted to find you, but she couldn't get through to you. She wanted to tell you about the current situation in Rongcheng."
"Rongcheng has now become a gathering place for zombies. They are very obedient in building Rongcheng, and we have also opened a new store that specializes in supplying zombies."
"The effect is very good. They have stopped biting people. If it weren't for the obvious zombie features on their appearance, they would look no different from normal people from a distance. You should go back and take a look quickly. The feeling is very shocking."
Before Shi Qinghe set out and came here, he stopped in Rongcheng for a while. He saw zombies moving bricks and building, and even learning to speak at the same time. Even now he still finds it incredible when he thinks about it.
You have to know that they and the zombies were two hostile parties before, and once they met, it was either you die or I die. At that moment, there were no zombies rushing towards him, but they were concentrating on doing their own things.
"Really? Are zombies so friendly now? Then can we settle down here in the future without having to worry about danger? Lord Yisaro?"
Since leaving the oasis, the people in their oasis base have changed their name from King Isaro to Lord Isaro.
The person who spoke was a young man in his twenties named Ye Yu.
Shi Qinghe did not avoid these people when he spoke. Ye Yu was excited when he heard their conversation and could not help but interrupt and ask. After he finished speaking, he realized the embarrassment and looked at them with a subtle and embarrassed expression.
"Little brother, this place still won't work. Only Rongcheng can do this now. So after choosing a place to settle down, you still have to be careful and pay attention to safety."
"If you really can't stay here, you're welcome to come to Dawn City or its vicinity at any time."
Shi Qinghe broke Ye Yu's embarrassment with just a few words and patiently answered Ye Yu's confusion. At the same time, he was also very curious about where Xu Bai and others were trapped before, which could make these people so isolated from the world.
…
Early the next morning.
After breakfast, the group was about to go out to build the railway when they found that the door was locked tightly and could not be opened at all.
This was an abandoned old house they found nearby yesterday. They cleaned it up simply and rested inside.
There was nothing unusual around me when I came in.
At this moment, they were really shocked that they couldn't open the door.
"Everyone, look here! We're surrounded by mutant trees."
When everyone looked, they saw green vines covering the windows, as if they were trying to crash into the house, causing the windows to make loud knocks.
They tried to take a step closer, and the vines began to shake even more.
At the same time, the door of the house was shaking.
The mutated vines outside seemed to be pulling at the door and windows in a hurry... they were eager to come in and say hello to them.
"Once the door is opened, everyone protect yourselves and gather outside again. Don't stop the plan we made earlier."
Xu Baiyou told Yisaro and others the route of their railway construction and reminded them again.
It only took a moment for the door to be opened.
As soon as the door opened.
They saw extremely thick vines rushing in. The tips of the vines were sharp, and when they approached them, they split from the original thick vines into countless thin vines.
Xu Bai cut off the vine that was wrapped around her ankle. As soon as she raised her eyes, she saw someone tied up with the vine and being pulled out.
Xu Bai instinctively reached forward and grabbed the person.
