Chapter 214 It’s Dangerous When It’s Dark
Hearing the old man's words, Nan Ci smiled and said, "It's okay, we are quite brave."
After hearing this, the old man didn't get angry, but laughed. "Courageous? Hahaha, I've seen a lot of people who talk like you, but few of them are really courageous.
Listen to my advice, if you can stay in the base, don’t go out, life outside is not so easy. "
Nan Ci nodded politely to the old man, "Thanks for the reminder, but I still have to go out and try to know whether I am brave enough or not."
After saying this, Nan Ci just walked out without giving the old man a chance to speak.
As it was getting dark, we could only see an increase in the number of people entering the base, but only a few leaving the base.
Nan Ci and the old man were standing at the door talking, not blocking anyone's way.
After leaving the base, you can see the western sky. The sun has turned orange. The sunlight shines on the water, seeming to dye the water red, which looks quite beautiful.
Nan Ci stared at the west for a long time and sighed, "Maybe the more beautiful it is, the more dangerous it is."
The old Taoist priest put his hands together and smiled, "It may not be safe to stay in the base."
The three major forces in the base, although belonging to different camps, are no different from each other.
The base is not really a safe haven. If you live in it, you don’t know when or how you will die.
After all, outside the base, their only opponents were the strange fish.
But once you get inside the base, that’s not necessarily the case.
The two stopped talking and walked towards their ship.
Perhaps because it was getting dark, there were fewer people walking outside the base.
The few pedestrians there all looked hurried.
Nan Ci and the old Taoist priest walked at a moderate pace. Although they were not lazy, they were not tense either. Compared with the others, they were still somewhat conspicuous.
However, everyone was in a hurry to return to their own boats. At most, they glanced at the two of them and quickly looked away.
Nan Ci and the old Taoist priest didn't care about the gazes of these people and returned to the boat at a leisurely pace.
As soon as they got closer, they saw Zhou Ziyang sticking his head out from above, with a smile on his face, and waved at the two of them.
"You guys are finally back. You've been gone for so long, Qianqian was worried sick. Come up quickly."
Hearing Zhou Ziyang's words, Nan Ci smiled and got on the boat quickly.
When I got to the deck, as expected, I saw Mu Qianqian soaking in the swimming pool, looking very lazy.
Nan Ci had just stood still when Mu Qianqian asked repeatedly, "How is it? What's the situation at the base? Have you heard any news?"
Nan Ci walked to the recliner and lay down on it.
"Not only did I find out the news, I also found out a lot of news."
"What's the news?" Mu Qianqian asked impatiently.
Although Zhou Ziyang didn't say anything, his eyes were looking at Nan Ci with great anticipation.
Nan Ci briefly sorted out the various information he had received, and then slowly told the story.
As Nan Ci spoke, Mu Qianqian's expression became more and more ugly.
"Is this the case for all bases now?"
Mu Qianqian shouted angrily, with rage in her eyes.
It’s no wonder that Mu Qianqian was so angry. She herself had been coveted and almost kidnapped. Now she heard that people were still going missing in this base. How could she not be angry?
Zhou Ziyang's expression was equally ugly. There was anger on his face, but more of it was worry.
"In that case, this base is not safe. Then we..."
As he was speaking, Zhou Ziyang's voice suddenly stopped.
Nan Ci knew what Zhou Ziyang wanted to say.
He must be saying that this base is not safe and they should leave.
But if this base is not safe, does that mean other places are definitely safe?
Or in other words, is there any safe place in this world?
The old Taoist priest also lay down leisurely, "Let's not talk about whether the base is safe or not, but more than one person told us that it is really not safe outside the base at night.
I think tonight is going to be another sleepless night, let's think about how to spend it first."
The old Taoist's words successfully woke everyone up from their anger and anxiety.
They are now outside the base, not inside the base.
The most important thing to worry about is how to get through the night, rather than being bothered by the darkness in the base.
Seeing that no one was talking, Nan Ci took the initiative to speak, "It's getting dark soon. If we don't eat now, we probably won't have time to eat when it gets dark."
As soon as Nan Ci said this, several people immediately realized the importance of the matter, and even Mu Qianqian came out of the swimming pool.
Man is iron, food is steel, if you don't eat for a meal, you will be hungry.
Not to mention that there is a tough battle to fight tonight, so we need to eat and drink enough.
There were many other ships around, and he didn't know if anyone on those ships would use telescopes to look at this side. Nan Ci did not take the food directly out of the space.
Several people went directly to the second floor, a luxurious yet relatively closed restaurant.
After closing the doors and windows, drawing the curtains and turning on the lights, Nan Ci took food out of the space.
Zhou Ziyang said at this time, "Nan Ci, you don't need to take so much for now. I also stewed two dishes this afternoon. I will bring them over soon."
Hearing Zhou Ziyang's words, Nan Ci nodded and said, "Okay, go ahead."
Zhou Ziyang stewed all kinds of meat dishes with thick oil and red sauce, and the dishes were soft and tender. As soon as they were brought into the house, the aroma filled the air.
Although there are only two dishes, each one is a full pot and the portion is quite large.
The meat stewed in this way is delicious, and the soup is also a great choice for dipping pancakes or soaking rice in it.
Sometimes, no matter meat, seafood or vegetables, they cannot replace the satisfaction brought by carbohydrates.
Eating enough carbohydrates will make you happier.
As time was tight, the few of them did not dare to dawdle. After sitting down, they ate seriously and no one spoke.
After more than half an hour, the food on the table had been eaten up.
The empty plates and bowls were directly put into the space by Nan Ci and placed in the dishwasher.
The dishwasher is not for home use, but a large dishwasher that is only used in five-star hotels.
They used so many pots, pans, and utensils in one meal, but they could put them all in at once and clean them thoroughly.
Using a dishwasher to wash clothes not only saves time, but also saves water and trouble.
Nan Ci doesn't want to waste too much manpower on things that can be solved by machines.
After cleaning up the table in the restaurant, the four of them went up to the deck.
At this time, the last trace of light in the west had disappeared and the sky had become completely dark.
