Liu Anran squatted down, picked up the water bottle, and handed it to Qin Ruixu, saying, "Thank you for taking care of Yunlong, Uncle. This water is for you."
Qin Ruixu's eyes flickered. He took the water bottle from Liu Anran, opened the cap, drank it all in one gulp, and then handed the bottle back to Liu Anran.
Zeng Yufan, who possessed water-based abilities, saw Qin Ruixu drink most of a bottle of water in one gulp and assumed he was thirsty. He said to Qin Ruixu, "Boss, I'm a water-based ability user. Just tell me if you're thirsty."
Qin Ruixu pursed his lips. The water he had just drunk was not comparable to the water energy emitted by Zeng Yufan, a water-type ability user.
Chu Yunxiao reached out and hugged Liu Anran, then smiled at Zeng Yufan. The water Liu Anran gave Qin Ruixu was more than ten times better than ordinary water.
Wang Ping led his teammates into the house and said coldly, "The person who shot and wounded Zheng Zhi just now is the male head of this household, who is also the guard who brought us here."
Thinking of the dismembered body in the room, Zeng Yufan said angrily, "This couple is no good."
"What I'm curious about now is where Bai Lu and her teammates were taken. Were all the people who came here to stay arrested?" Liu Anran said with a serious expression.
"They confiscated our guns, thinking we would surrender without weapons and be at their mercy, but they didn't expect that we had spatial ability users who turned the tables and killed them," Jinlong said thankfully.
Chu Yunxiao said, "You don't think there are only a few people in the village, do you?"
“I suspect they are all hiding in the mountains, leaving only a few elderly, weak, women and children in the village to make us think that there is no one in the village and lower our guard. They take the opportunity to wipe us out, and our supplies and human flesh will become their food.”
Qin Ruixu nodded slightly, agreeing with Chu Yunxiao's words.
"Wang Ping, send men to keep watch and pay close attention to the surroundings. Be wary of any sneak attacks. If there is any unusual movement, shoot and kill," Qin Ruixu instructed.
"Yes, boss," Wang Ping replied.
Seeing Qin Ruixu's swift and decisive actions, Liu Anran secretly decided that she would let her child spend more time with him in the future. As long as he gave her some guidance, her child would benefit greatly.
Qin Ruixu watched as Wang Ping led his men out of the house, then calmly withdrew his gaze and instructed Chu Yunxiao, "No matter what happens, don't leave your wife easily."
Liu Anran is a wood-type ability user who can accelerate plant growth and increase its speed. Right now, the most needed resource is food, so the villagers will definitely try every means to capture her and make her accelerate the growth of their food.
“Uncle, I definitely won’t leave An Ran’s side,” Chu Yunxiao said.
“I think we should leave here now,” Liu Anran said.
Chu Yunxiao frowned and said, "You're pregnant, what if you fall while walking at night?"
Qin Ruixu glanced down at Liu Anran's protruding belly and decided, "Leave tomorrow morning."
Chu Yunxiao said, "An Ran, you're tired. Let me help you back to your room to rest."
Liu Anran and Chu Yunxiao returned to their room. Liu Anran stood in the room, took out a flashlight and shone it around the room. She found a basket in the corner of the room, and it seemed that there were backpacks in the basket. She walked to the basket and saw that there were two backpacks inside.
Chu Yunxiao took out two backpacks and saw that there were several grenades and guns in the basket.
Chu Yunxiao put the pistol and grenade into his spatial storage, then opened his backpack, which contained several packs of compressed biscuits, two sausages, and several packs of instant noodles.
Chu Yunxiao and Liu Anran had plenty of food, so Chu Yunxiao took out two backpacks for Qin Ruixu.
Liu Anran walked to the table and saw a small incense burner on it. She opened the lid of the incense burner and saw powder inside. Her face darkened.
She inexplicably felt that this was not a good thing.
Chu Yunxiao walked into the room and saw Liu Anran staring intently at the incense burner on the table. He asked, "What's wrong?"
"Come and take a look at the incense in this incense burner?" Liu Anran said.
Chu Yunxiao walked to Liu Anran's side, looked at the incense burner and saw a cold glint in his eyes.
He finally understood why Blackie kept barking, and Qin Ruixu's feeling that someone had walked past him was not a hallucination; someone had indeed entered the room with the intention of lighting the incense and putting them to sleep.
Thinking back to the fact that Bai Lu and her teammates had disappeared, it must have been because they were infected with this stuff.
"I'm just curious about what's inside the incense burner," Liu Anran said.
Chu Yunxiao's face was filled with disgust as he thought of the deceased aunt and her husband.
He closed the lid of the incense burner, and while pulling Liu Anran towards the bed, he said, "There's nothing good in the incense burner, don't touch it."
“Okay!” Liu Anran replied.
Liu Anran lay in bed, thinking about what had happened that night, and couldn't help but sigh. Whenever Chu Yunxiao and Bai Lu met, there would be a lot of trouble.
Hearing Liu Anran sigh, Chu Yunxiao assumed she was scared and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I will definitely protect you."
Liu Anran softly hummed in agreement. "I believe you will protect me."
Qin Ruixu held the sleeping Yunlong in his arms and closed his eyes to rest. Outside the house, Wang Ping and Zeng Yufan stood guard with guns, constantly paying attention to the surrounding situation.
"Shh..." Light footsteps came from the darkness.
Wang Ping tensed up, his face wary, and shouted, "Who goes there?"
"Speak up, or I'll shoot!"
The footsteps stopped, and the world returned to silence. In the pitch-black night, Wang Ping could only hear his own and Zeng Yufan's breathing.
Qin Ruixu slowly opened his eyes and said indifferently, without any expression, "Shoot, kill without mercy!"
Those who harbor ill intentions deserve to die.
Wang Ping held his gun at the approximate location of the sound, ready to fire without hesitation as soon as he heard footsteps again.
In such a difficult and bizarre environment, it's either them or the other side who dies, so it can only be the other side who dies!
"Kick the tower, kick the tower..." A rhythmic sound rang out.
Wang Ping and Zeng Yufan listened intently, gripping their pistols tightly, ready to retaliate at any moment.
"Ah! Ah!..." A series of pitiful screams rang out, the voices filled with fear.
Qin Ruixu's face turned serious, and he shouted, "Stop sleeping! Everyone, go on alert!"
Jin Hua and Jiang Cheng all woke up and immediately stood up with their guns in hand.
Liu Anran had just fallen asleep when she was woken up again. She and Chu Yunxiao went to the main room, and their expressions grew increasingly somber as they faced the pitch-black night.
"Kick the tower, kick the tower..." The voice grew closer.
Wang Ping held a gun in one hand and a flashlight in the other, shining it towards the source of the sound. The flashlight beam illuminated a person's face, revealing a pale face and bloodstains around the mouth. Without hesitation, he fired.
