Chapter 185 I promised, there will be a reward for your return.



"Ouch! That hurts!"

As the uncle and niece were talking, a sharp pain struck, and Ling Qingyao cried out in agony.

Meanwhile, Ling Liyuan was also at the hospital, in the same room as Madam Ling.

She would cry out in pain from time to time.

"That heartless bastard ruined me."

Mr. Ling: "If you have a clear conscience, you have nothing to fear."

You've done too many bad things, and you're getting your comeuppance.

Old Madam Ling: "What are you saying? Get out."

Who would make sarcastic remarks when their wife is sick?

Mr. Ling turned and left.

Old Madam Ling shook her head, "What a tragedy!"

………………

Bai Shuang and the others were unaware of what was happening at the base. Lu Yu was flying the plane, and after three hours, Bai Shuang called a halt.

Due to the extreme cold, the helicopter cannot fly too fast in the air, and it will take about eight or nine hours to reach the border with Vantaa.

Stop to check the fuel, check the icing outside the plane, and let the pilots take a break.

This place is probably within Jiangcheng. The group planned to get off the plane and stretch their legs. When they opened the cabin door, they saw a group of people carrying something by the roadside.

Xiao Zhao: "I didn't expect the South to be so cold."

Bai Jiu: "What are they doing?"

Xiao Yang: "They're probably moving frozen corpses from the roadside."

Lu Yu: "Don't go down."

There were people not far away. They were probably carrying the corpses to use as food. They were so hungry that they were eating people. What kind of kind people could they be?

Sure enough, as soon as Lu Yu finished speaking, someone saw the cabin door open and ran towards the plane.

Bai Shuang: "Come in quickly, the door is closed."

It's not that I'm worried about not being able to beat them, but when you're out and about, it's better to avoid trouble.

But after they closed the door, those people actually grabbed weapons and smashed the plane!

They must be resentful of the rich. They can't even survive themselves, and you guys are still flying planes?

This is a military aircraft; the dark green plane has the five-star designation on it.

But these people have lost all reverence; they're just a bunch of desperados.

Bai Shuang: "Fire!"

No need to open the door; military aircraft have firing ports.

Gunshots rang out, and those people finally got scared and scattered and fled.

After Lu Yu finished inspecting the plane and refueled it, lunchtime was approaching. Bai Shuang brought out rice, vegetables, and soup, and the group ate before continuing to fly away.

This time, Bai Shuang was piloting the plane, and Lu Yu was sitting in the co-pilot's seat. The two planned to train Bai Jiu and Lu Yu as one of their personal guards to be a pilot when they returned.

The plane headed towards

The journey to the southwest was relatively smooth. After another 3 hours of driving, we arrived in Qianzhou, where we landed, rested, and had a meal.

It was already afternoon, and in the extreme cold, darkness fell early. They planned to rest there for the night, but they were unfamiliar with the area. Although the surroundings were relatively open for the time being, who knew if cannibals would come again in the middle of the night?

Lu Yu checked the coordinates and found an official base not far away, so Bai Shuang put away the plane, released her high-spec car, and drove towards the base.

At the base entrance, Lu Yu revealed his identity, explaining that the group was on official business and had an obligation to provide assistance to any official base they passed through.

The group of people and their dog successfully checked into the best room at the base.

The best room is one with a private bathroom and heating.

When the base leaders heard that Lu Yu had arrived, they rushed over at night to meet him and even had the kitchen prepare special local dishes.

Two dishes caught Bai Shuang's attention: Wangmo black goat meat and braised Congjiang fragrant pig.

Wangmo Black Goat is the most unique and high-quality black goat breed in Guizhou Province. Its meat is tender, high in protein, low in fat, and has a rich flavor, earning it the reputation of "Black Pearl of Guizhou".

Congjiang fragrant pigs are known for their small size, tender and flavorful meat, and pure, pollution-free characteristics.

The base leader was thin and capable, and asked Lu Yu if he could help them get some food.

Due to its topography, Qianzhou was already economically underdeveloped. In addition, it was far from the capital base, making communication inconvenient. Cold-resistant potato varieties were introduced to the area relatively late, and food was extremely scarce.

The population has dropped to less than one-tenth of its original size, and most of the people who have been killed have starved to death.

However, food was scarce everywhere, and Lu Yu had no special solution.

We don't know how things are going with the soldiers on the frontier, so we dare not use the military rations and cotton-padded clothes that were prepared for them.

That was a portion that Grandpa Lu had set aside from the Kyoto base, which was also short of food.

Bai Shuang: "How many Congjiang fragrant pigs and Wangmo black goats do you have?"

"There aren't many. Although these are local specialties, they need feed to keep them alive, and the only feed available is painstakingly grown in greenhouses."

Bai Shuang: "If I had any, I could personally exchange some grain for it, but I need living ones, preferably multi-talented ones."

Although we had Xiang pigs from Yanglingtun back then, they didn't taste as good as those from Congjiang.

"No problem, we'll spare some for you."

Bai Shuang: "Also, I'll give you another type of fruit that can grow in snow and has a good yield..."

Bai Shuang gave them monkey fruit seeds and vines as a token of her gratitude for the meal.

Food is scarce, and favors are hard to come by.

The base leaders were also very happy, because fruit could be used as food to save lives when necessary.

Furthermore, they can exchange Congjiang fragrant pigs and Wangmo black goats for some grain.

The next morning, after the transaction was completed, Bai Shuang and the others continued their journey, this time with Lu Yu piloting the plane.

Two or three hours later, as the plane approached the border, it landed again for rest and refitting.

There has been no external invasion near the border, which means that the border troops are still there. However, it is unknown how they have managed to survive until now, given that they have not received military rations for a long time.

The group drove directly to the military camp, where the officers and soldiers in charge of logistics told them that the soldiers had gone to fight the Southern Monkeys.

In the army camp, a large pot was boiling something that looked like grass roots or something else.

Seeing the simple military camp, the tattered clothes, and the emaciated, skin-and-bones soldiers, I wondered where they got their strength from.

Just then, a ragged old man returned with a group of equally tattered men carrying sticks and machetes.

Bai Shuang: "What do they do?"

Lu Yu: "They are border troops stationed here."

"What about the old man?"

"It must be the garrison commander here."

When the group returned, they cheered because they had won the battle.

When the army commander saw Bai Shuang and the other strangers, he quickly led his men over to greet them.

The army commander's surname was Wang. Although he was very thin, he was very energetic and had a cheerful personality.

Bai Shuang: "Where are your guns?"

Why are they all carrying sticks? They look like bandits.

"We're out of bullets. A stick is more useful than a gun."

When everyone returned from the battle and it was time to eat, they also served Bai Shuang and the others a bowl of grass root soup.

Bai Shuang had stored quite a few steamed buns and rolls in her space, so she pretended to take them out of the car and gave them to Bai Jiu and the others to eat.

Commander Wang said to everyone, "I told you that if you fight well, you'll be rewarded when you come back. Look, here comes the reward."

White frost, ...
