Chapter 412 Lin Ye, elven blood?
Suning and Ji Fengyan followed Sun Yi, walked through a corridor, and entered this place called "sanctuary" by the outside world.
Suning saw a sign on the building that said "Longhu Wetland Park Lounge", but perhaps because of the previous earthquake, half of it had collapsed and the other half was covered by various vines.
Behind the door is a narrow passage with a few dim emergency lights hanging on the wall. The light is weak but enough to illuminate the road ahead.
The end of the passage suddenly opens up, and what comes into view is a spacious underground space, reinforced with concrete on all sides, which looks solid and safe.
This place is completely different from the outside world.
The air didn't have the suffocating smell of a virus, but instead was filled with the faint scent of disinfectant. Simple beds and daily necessities were neatly arranged on the floor, and some food and water were piled in the corner.
People gathered in twos and threes, some were talking in low voices, some were sorting supplies, and there were even a few children playing in the corner with long-lost smiles on their faces.
Suning's eyes swept over these people, and his heart moved slightly.
Although their faces were a little pale, their expressions seemed calm and composed, and they did not have the desperate look of the virus like those infected people outside.
As Kou Dingshan said, people here really seem to be unaffected by the virus.
Sun Yi walked ahead, glanced back at them, and spoke in a much more relaxed tone: "My name is Sun Yi, and I'm the person in charge here. Don't take what happened just now too seriously. You all know the situation outside right now. The virus is rampant, and natural disasters are rampant. It's not easy for people like us to survive, and we really don't have the energy to help more people."
"Also, although this place isn't affected by the virus, we're still worried about people infected with the virus entering here and potentially infecting others. Those people are also afraid you might be infected, so they're attacking you and won't let you get close. So I hope you don't mind."
Ji Fengyan frowned and looked at Sun Yi. "Since you know your abilities are limited, why are you still promoting the idea that this place is unaffected by the virus on the communication channel? Don't you know that this will only attract more people?"
Sun Yi sighed, a trace of helplessness on his face: "We don't know why this place is not affected by the virus. We have been hiding here since the earthquake, and when the virus disaster came, we somehow escaped.
We originally wanted to ask about the situation in other shelters on the communication channel. We also wanted to enter more people's shelter bases, but who knew that the outside world was severely affected by the virus disaster, while ours was not affected at all. So we posted the news... Actually, we also wanted to see if anyone could help us find the cause. If we can find the cause, maybe we can help more people.
Sun Yi said this and turned his gaze to Suning, his eyes filled with anticipation. "Since you managed to get in alive from outside, you must not be ordinary people. If you can find the reason why this place is not affected by the virus, we are willing to share this secret and help more people."
Suning was slightly stunned. He didn't expect Sun Yi's attitude to change so much.
Just now when they were outside, he looked tense, but now he seemed particularly frank.
She glanced at Ji Fengyan and found that his expression had eased a little, obviously touched by Sun Yi's words.
"That's why we're here," Suning nodded, then pointed at Ji Fengyan and said, "He's from the First Shelter. We're here to see if we can find a solution to the viral disaster for everyone."
Sun Yi showed a relieved smile, "That's great."
Then he reached out and patted Ji Fengyan's shoulder: "Then I'll leave it to you. Although our abilities are limited, we also hope to do something for this world."
Ji Fengyan felt the warmth of his palm and felt a slight warmth in his heart.
Perhaps, in this world full of despair, there are still some people willing to ignite the flame of hope for others.
Ji Fengyan's heart was healed a little because he lost his companions in the copy, and he also wanted to save the world with the ideals of these companions.
"Yes I will."
Suning looked at Ji Fengyan's recovered state and felt happy for him.
His expression was no longer as tense as before, and there was a hint of determination and calmness in his eyes.
Obviously, Sun Yi's frankness and the atmosphere of this small base made him relax a lot.
"In that case, can we ask our companions not to stay outside?" Suning turned to look at Sun Yi.
Sun Yi was stunned for a moment, then patted his forehead and smiled apologetically: "Oh, I almost forgot about them. Sorry, the situation was urgent just now and I didn't have time to arrange it. I'll send someone to pick them up after the test shows no virus."
Not long after, Jiang Nana and her group were brought into this small base located in Longhu Wetland.
As soon as Jiang Nana came in, she quickly walked over to Su Ning and asked in a low voice, "How is it? Have you found out why people here are not afraid of the virus?"
Su Ning shook his head, with a hint of helplessness in his tone: "People here don't know the specific reason either.
They just stumbled upon this place being immune to the virus, but they don’t know the reason behind it.”
Jiang Nana frowned, looking a little disappointed: "It seems we need to explore here carefully, maybe we can find some clues."
At this moment, Zhang Li's attention was attracted by someone in the base.
She stared at that direction intently, with a focused expression as if she had discovered something important.
Su Ning noticed her abnormality, so he walked over and asked softly, "What are you looking at so seriously?"
Zhang Li did not answer immediately, but raised her hand and pointed at a young man not far away.
Su Ning followed her gaze and was stunned.
He was a young man carrying a longbow, with a slender figure, three-dimensional features, but also a hint of femininity.
His skin looked exceptionally fair in the dim light, and there was a cold aura between his eyebrows.
His movements were light and graceful, as if blending into the surrounding environment, like an elf walking out of the jungle.
Suning then remembered that this young man was the one who attacked them with a bow outside the base.
The situation was urgent at the time, and because the outside environment was dim, no one paid close attention to his appearance. But now, under the lights inside the base, his appearance and temperament were particularly eye-catching.
"It's him..." Su Ning said in a low voice with a hint of surprise in his tone.
Zhang Li nodded, her eyes still fixed on the young man. "He has a very unique aura, unlike an ordinary person. Also, the bow he carries... doesn't look like an ordinary weapon either."
What Zhang Li said was something everyone could see, but there was one thing Zhang Li didn't mention, which was that this person looked very much like her former neighbor.
Thinking of this, Zhang Li looked at Suning with some suspicion.
"Suning, don't you think he looks like someone?"
Suning wondered, "Who does he look like?"
Seeing that Suning really didn't notice, Zhang Li simply didn't say anything more.
Suning looked at the young man again and noticed the bow he was carrying.
The bow had a deep wood grain, and the string was taut, clearly a meticulously crafted weapon. The young man's fingers, slender and powerful, rested lightly on the bow, as if ready to draw and shoot at any moment.
"What's his name?" Zhang Li couldn't help but turned around and asked Sun Yi.
Sun Yi followed her gaze and smiled. "Oh, his name is Lin Ye. He's the best archer and hunter here. Usually when food is scarce, he helps us hunt mutant animals and cook them. He doesn't talk much, but he's very skilled. Don't mind his previous behavior; he was only trying to protect the base."
"Lin Ye?" Su Ning repeated the name in a low voice. He felt that it was familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it.
However, compared to her doubts, Zhang Li's reaction was even more intense.
"What? His name is Lin Ye? It's really him!" Zhang Li's voice suddenly rose, her face full of surprise and disbelief.
Everyone's eyes turned to Zhang Li, obviously not understanding why she had such a big reaction.
Su Ning was also a little confused and looked at Zhang Li: "Do you know him?"
Zhang Li didn't answer immediately. Instead, she looked at Su Ning with a puzzled look and a hint of ridicule in her tone: "Su Ning, have you forgotten? Lin Ye, the Lin Ye who used to live next door to us!"
Su Ning was stunned for a moment, and then some vague memories flashed through his mind.
She finally remembered - Lin Ye, the boy who used to live next door to them and looked more like a girl than she did.
The Lin family and their family have been neighbors for many years, and Lin Ye often played with her when he was a child.
Bad memories come flooding back.
"No way..." Su Ning said dryly, with a hint of disbelief in his tone, "Why does Lin Ye look like this? This can't be the Lin Ye we know, right?"
Zhang Li couldn't help laughing when she saw Su Ning's expression. "Have you forgotten? He was very handsome when he was a child, even more handsome than now! I think it's him. Even though his family moved away many years ago, it's normal for his appearance to have changed."
Su Ning's face looked a little embarrassed, and he obviously didn't want to talk about the past related to Lin Ye anymore.
That memory was a lifelong shame for her.
She lowered her head, trying to avoid Zhang Li's gaze, but Zhang Li clearly wasn't going to let her go. She continued teasing, "Do you still remember? Back then, you treated Lin Ye like a girl and played dress-up and undressing..."
"Alright!" Su Ning interrupted Zhang Li hastily, a blush on her face. "Stop talking. That was all in our childhood."
Zhang Li smiled even more happily, obviously finding Suning's panicked expression very amusing.
Sun Yi heard their conversation and showed a hint of surprise on his face: "You actually know Lin Ye?"
His voice was not loud, but it was enough to attract the attention of Lin Ye who was not far away.
Lin Ye was originally lowering his head to organize the bow and arrow in his hand. When he heard Sun Yi's words, he raised his head and his eyes swept over, finally falling on Su Ning and Zhang Li.
"Brother Sun, who do you say knows me?" Lin Ye's voice was low and cold, with a hint of doubt.
Sun Yi pointed at Su Ning and Zhang Li and said with a smile: "These two girls said they knew you, and it seemed like you were former neighbors."
Lin Ye's gaze lingered on Su Ning and Zhang Li for a moment, his brows slightly furrowed, as if he was recalling something.
"Former neighbor?"
After a moment, his eyes fixed on Suning's face, and a scene of a little girl asking him to take off his clothes and quickly put on a beautiful dress flashed through his memory.
Lin Ye: The memories of the dead are attacking him fiercely.
"Suning?"
Suning regained their composure, thinking that so many years had passed and the incident was no longer a big deal, and now it was a natural disaster, so there was no point in thinking about it.
It wasn't her fault that she forced a boy who looked like a girl to play dress-up games when they were young. Not to mention that Lin Ye was pretty, he also had long hair. Anyone would have thought wrongly.
It wasn't her, Suning's fault, that she took off his pants.
Who knew that Lin Ye was a boy at that time?
In response to Lin Ye's call, Suning smiled and replied, "It's me."
"It's really you..." Lin Ye whispered, with a hint of emotion in his tone.
Suning opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
She didn't expect that after so many years, she would meet Lin Ye here again.
Seeing this, Zhang Li smiled and patted Su Ning on the shoulder: "It seems that I didn't recognize the wrong person. It turned out to be him."
Then Zhang Li also greeted.
"Hi Lin Ye, do you remember me, Zhang Li?"
Lin Ye looked at Zhang Li and remembered who Zhang Li was. She was a girl who had always had conflicts with Suning and always compared everything with Suning.
I just didn’t expect that the relationship with Suning seems to be very good now.
Lin Ye thought to himself, "It's the end of the world now, what does that little friction mean?"
Lin Ye's gaze still lingered on Su Ning, as if he wanted to see something from her expression.
After a moment, he nodded gently, his tone calm but with a hint of alienation: "Long time no see."
Su Ning forced a smile and replied dryly: "Long time no see..."
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment. Sun Yi looked at them and said with a smile, "Since you know each other, it will be easy. Lin Ye, you can take them to familiarize themselves with the base."
Lin Ye did not refuse and nodded: "Okay."
Su Ning didn't want to have too much contact with Lin Ye, especially those past events that she couldn't bear to recall made her feel extremely embarrassed.
Jiang Nana smelled gossip.
"So what's going on?" Jiang Nana asked Zhang Li
Zhang Li couldn't help but chuckle, "It's not what you think, but now it's going to be fun."
As he spoke, he walked forward quickly, and Jiang Nana also walked over as if she was watching a show.
Seeing this, the others shook their heads and began to look for reasons in this base as to why they were not afraid of the virus.
Su Ning and Zhang Li asked about Lin Ye's condition from time to time.
Suning also used the Scavenger's Eye to investigate Lin Ye's information.
