Chapter 108 New Teammates
"Okay, go and get some rest. If your eyes still feel uncomfortable at night, be sure to come find me, okay?"
Standing at the corner of the stairs on the second floor, Lu Ming worriedly instructed the person in front of him.
The man nodded and whispered, "Good night."
Lu Ming smiled and patted his head, "Good night, go."
After watching him return to the room, Lu Ming tiptoed up to the fourth floor.
The new villa has four floors, and Gu Chao, Cheng Ming and Lu Ming still live on the top floor.
She gently turned the handle, pushed open the door, walked in quietly, closed the door again, and then came to the bed.
The person on the bed was sleeping quietly. The back of his hand was no longer swollen. There was an empty bowl on the table next to him. It seemed that he had eaten well.
Lu Ming stretched out his index finger and gently stroked his brows which were still furrowed in his sleep, thinking to himself, what is this person thinking about? He can't sleep well at night.
I tucked the quilt in for him and turned around to leave.
As a result, after taking only two steps, I heard a soft, suppressed groan from behind.
She quickly turned around and saw that the person who was sleeping soundly was breathing rapidly and had a few drops of cold sweat on his forehead. She was startled and hurried back and whispered, "Gu Chao? What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
He slightly opened his eyelids, his usually sharp eyes now showing a hint of innocence. He shook his head and said softly, "It's okay."
Lu Ming asked anxiously, "Then why are you like this?"
As she said that, without waiting for his answer, she pulled back his blanket and found that his hands were tightly covering his stomach.
"Stomach upset?"
She moved his hand away, gently lifted the hem of his pajamas, put her hand in, and pressed it on his upper abdomen.
Feeling the touch of the muscles under her hands, she was a little anxious. Is it so painful? The muscles are so tense.
A ball of white light appeared, and she closed her eyes and treated him carefully.
only……
After a while, she felt confused. Why hadn't the disease healed after so long? Was her treatment useless for this disease?
She opened her eyes and asked, "How is it? Is it getting better?"
Gu Chao nodded and said weakly: "Yeah, it's better."
That means he is not completely healed yet. Lu Ming closed his eyes again and continued to treat him.
Since there were no obvious wounds, she couldn't feel what was wrong. She could only carefully penetrate the energy into it. Fearing that there was something missed, she stroked both sides.
But why are my muscles still so tense...?
A question mark slowly appeared above Lu Ming's head.
Just when she was about to ask something, her wrist was suddenly grabbed. She opened her eyes and looked over. The man said, "Okay."
"Really?" She was a little unconvinced, as there was obviously more sweat on his forehead.
Gu Chao nodded, his voice a little hoarse, "You've worked hard, go and have a rest."
Lu Ming was skeptical and covered him with the quilt again. "Okay, I'm leaving now. If you still feel uncomfortable, please tell me."
"Well, good night."
"good evening."
Lu Ming returned to the room, took a long breath, stretched, and then went to wash up.
Although the healing function of space is not a superpower, it requires control to sense wounds and promote healing like a superpower, so excessive use will also cause mental fatigue.
Lying on the bed, she touched Tiantian in the little nest at the head of the bed as usual. Seeing that it was sleeping soundly and licked her with its tongue, she couldn't help but smile. Although it had grown a little bigger, the little guy was still so cute.
but……
"Hey, Tiantian, where did you go to steal your food?" She pinched the rice grains next to Xiaotian's mouth with paper and asked in confusion, "You're still not full after eating so much dog food. You must be a little pig."
And, someone in a certain room withdrew the mental energy that was originally used to take care of the patients, and laughed under the quilt for half the night.
Wonderful, it’s really wonderful!
----------------
The next day.
"Come in quickly." Lu Ming waved towards the door.
A thin figure walked in slowly.
He was a little nervous, his hands nervously clenching the corners of his clothes.
"Is this the newly recruited team member?" Gu Chao asked the person in front of him expressionlessly.
"Well, who do you think he is?"
Of course he knew who he was. He was not only the lucky boy who ate the crystal that night, but also the boy who was picked up by Lu Ming in the university town.
It was very dark that night, and the man had a bruised face and nose, but he couldn't even notice it.
It's really fate, Gu Chao narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Call the captain quickly."
"Hello, Captain Gu." He called out timidly.
"What's your name?"
"Aze."
"age?"
"twelve."
"Where are your family members?"
He pursed his lips, and suddenly reached out and grabbed the corner of Lu Ming's clothes. Lu Ming patted his shoulder soothingly.
When Gu Chao saw the actions of the two people, his expression became even colder.
"They're all dead." He whispered, his tone dejected.
Gu Chao couldn't deny it, and said, "Raise your head."
Aze paused slightly and slowly raised his head.
Two pairs of dark eyes looked straight into each other.
Their eyes met in mid-air.
One of them frowned slightly, and the other quickly lowered his head.
"Join my team, there's only one rule: obey orders. Do you understand?"
"Understood."
Lu Ming seemed to sense that the atmosphere in the room was a little strange. He scratched his head and said, "Okay, let the captain rest. It's time for Aze to go to training too. I'll take him out."
After saying that, Lu Ming pulled Aze out the door.
After the two left, Gu Chao relaxed his body and leaned against the pillow, sneering.
He pretends to be quite similar.
However, he could even handle Cheng Ming back then, let alone this kid who hasn't even grown all his hair yet.
-----------------
"What?! -40 degrees Celsius? How cold must it be in the north?"
"Two months of heavy snow? How can we go out to find supplies? People will starve to death."
"Furthermore, we're facing a very serious problem," Lu Ming said solemnly. She looked around and sighed, "Once the snow stops and the temperature rises, the glaciers in the Arctic and Antarctic will melt rapidly. Then, not only will we have to deal with floods, but also aquatic monsters that have fled from the sea to the shore."
After hearing this, everyone fell silent.
Such bad weather and terrible environment really leave no way for humans to survive.
Is humanity really going to become extinct?
"So, we have to prepare to move the base?"
"Yes. If the sea level rises, this place near the sea will definitely be submerged."
Gu Chao pondered for a moment. "The base needs to be relocated, and we also need to find supplies for the survivors. We can only split into two groups. One team will go to find a suitable relocation site, and the other team will stay at the base to defend and develop. So, what are your thoughts on the new location of the base?"
Zhou Zixi said, "If that's the case, then we need to find a place with higher terrain. Based on this reasoning, the east and south are not options. The northwest and southwest already have bases. If we still want to be independent, we can't be too close to large bases, so these two directions are also out of the question. So, the only option left is the central region, which is not as cold."
"What will we do after we find a new location? If we want to relocate all the survivors before the ice age, we won't be able to come back and pick them up later."
"We can open up the ground transportation routes on the way there and record them. Then we can migrate in two waves. The elderly and children who are not suitable for long-distance travel can be transported by plane, and the rest can travel by convoy."
"Okay, then it's settled. Time is running out, so we'll start our separate operations at the beginning of next month."
