Chapter 70 Gunshots

They have guns!

Chen Qingqing put down the half-washed rice in her hand and rushed out of the yard.

Uncle Zhang stood at the door. He also ran all the way here, with beads of sweat on his forehead.

"Uncle Zhang, don't worry." Zhou Weiyue followed and handed Uncle Zhang a towel.

Uncle Zhang wiped his face hastily, and his facial features wrinkled together in anxiety: "I don't know where the people came from, and they have guns in their hands, a lot of guns!"

Chen Qingqing looked to the north, squinting slightly, thinking about something.

Uncle Zhang had never heard the sound of gunfire in reality. Even though he had been a village chief for many years and had a wide range of knowledge, he was scared and paralyzed at this time.

He stammered to explain: "Qingqing, we Fengwei Village haven't offended anyone."

"I have always been very strict with the village. Usually no villagers go out. They all go fishing as you wish."

Shang Li frowned: "Uncle Zhang, what you said is not right. We are the only ones who have left the village during this period. Do you mean that we have caused trouble?" Uncle

Zhang's face panicked when he heard it, "No! I don't mean that!"

He hurriedly looked at Chen Qingqing, fearing that she would misunderstand: "Qingqing, uncle is talking without thinking, you, you must not take it to heart!"

"Uncle absolutely does not doubt you or blame you!"

Uncle Zhang's panic was not pretended. Chen Qingqing knew that he was really anxious. She waved her hand and said softly: "Don't worry, I won't misunderstand you."

"This group of people may not be here to seek revenge. Maybe they heard from somewhere that we have supplies in Fengwei Village and came to rob."

"We have been outside for a while, and it is not impossible that we leaked some information occasionally."

Besides, their team is very strong, so it is reasonable to attract the covetousness of some people.

This is also a possibility that Chen Qingqing expected.

But the other party actually has guns?

There are only small villages nearby, where did the armed forces come from?

Fengwei Village is a paradise on earth, but it is a poor and remote place to put it bluntly. Although there are marine resources, several nearby villages also have them.

They don't need to target Fengwei Village.

But until just now, the gunshots rang out, indicating that the other party was heading directly for Fengwei Village.

Fengwei Village must have what they want.

If material resources are not in their calculations... what else is there?

An almost impossible idea popped up in Chen Qingqing's mind.

She couldn't help but put her hand into her pocket, and touched the jade pendant in her pocket, as if this could ease her anxiety.

In their last life, their family's devastation started with the theft of the jade pendant.

In this life, they can live so well, thanks to this jade pendant.

So if those people must have come for something... Chen Qingqing could only think of this one reason.

They wanted to take away her jade pendant.

Lin Bo held his wife's hand, and transmitted a hint of warmth to her through his palm.

"Impossible."

Lin Bo said softly.

He guessed his wife's thoughts the moment he saw her move, but he also felt it was impossible.

Maybe the group of people who stole the jade pendant did have some ulterior motives, but they couldn't possibly chase them here.

If that were the case, God would really not let them live.

Chen Qingqing forced a smile and looked at the village chief: "Uncle Zhang, take your people and get the weapons you need, I'll go negotiate."

"Okay, okay." Chen Qingqing arranged for him, and he seemed to have found his backbone and hurried away.

"Who's there!" Xiao Huan, who was walking out of the yard, suddenly shouted.

Everyone looked over immediately after hearing the voice, and saw a person turning out from behind the wall.

"...Xu Yi, why are you here?"

Xu Yi scratched his head: "I came here with the village chief. Halfway through, the village chief asked me to go and notify other villagers, so I went."

"I saw you talking just now, and I didn't dare to interrupt you."

"Is there anything I can do to help?" Xu Yi's eyes were full of expectation.

Chen Qingqing remembered that she had been rejecting Xu Yi's request to go with them in various ways during this period of time, and she felt a little reluctant. They

were obviously good friends who grew up together, but now because of her repeated rejections, they seemed to be more and more unfamiliar, and even asked questions so cautiously.

Chen Qingqing: "Yes, you are very important now."

"Just now I asked Uncle Zhang to call people, now you come with us to the north."

"With you here, we have some confidence."

After all, Xu Yi's aura is very strong.

Xu Yi smiled immediately, thinking that he had finally made some contribution.

"Good!"

Lin Bo drove with a few people to the north of the village, and soon saw a group of people outside the wire mesh, fishing nets and sandbags.

The front row of the group of people were holding hot weapons, but the shooting distance was relatively small, so as long as they were farther away, there was nothing to worry about.

There were no corpses or injured people around the entrance of the village.

So that meant that the gunshot just

now was just to scare them. Chen Qingqing didn't understand what the other party wanted to do.

Chen Qingqing opened the skylight and stretched out the loudspeaker to ask the other party's intentions.

Soon the other party also responded with a loudspeaker, and the content of the words shocked everyone.

"Hand over Chen Qingqing! I'll spare your lives!"

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

How did they know Chen Qingqing was here?

Although they had been cleaning up the zombies around during this period, they had never revealed their names.

And the people in the village had not left the village, so how did this group of people know Chen Qingqing?

Chen Qingqing also fell silent.

Shang Li in the back seat suddenly spoke: "Xiao Huan, what's wrong with you?"

Chen Qingqing looked back and saw Xiao Huan leaning in Shang Li's arms, shrinking back hard, as if trying to avoid someone's gaze.

Xiao Huan's condition was obviously not right, he rarely appeared in this state.

The last time he was so scared was when... he met the invisible psychic Bai Yu.

Chen Qingqing looked in the direction Xiao Huan avoided.

Xu Yi, who was sitting next to Shang Li, also noticed Xiao Huan. He asked with concern: "What's wrong, Xiao Huan?"

"Are you cold?"

"The temperature has dropped too suddenly recently. Come, let me put on your uncle's clothes."

Xu Yi said as he was about to take off his black windbreaker.

"No need." Chen Qingqing suddenly interrupted him.

Chen Qingqing smiled at him and said, "It's just a child. It won't be a problem if he's frozen."

"By the way, I have something to trouble you with." Chen Qingqing's eyes were full of sincerity.

Xu Yi immediately responded: "Just give me any task you have."

Chen Qingqing: "I'm worried about Aunt Ming being alone at home, and I forgot to tell her when I left... Can you help me pick up Aunt Ming?"

Xu Yi was stunned: "Pick her up here? It's very dangerous here."

Chen Qingqing bit her lower lip lightly, looking embarrassed: "I don't want to either... But I don't know what to do now. Aunt Ming should be able to give me some advice."

Xu Yi nodded in understanding: "I understand, then I'll go pick up Aunt Ming, you wait a moment."

Seeing Xu Yi getting off the car, Xiao Huan immediately shouted: "Mom!"

"Mom, he is a bad guy!"

"Mom knows, don't be afraid." Chen Qingqing responded and took out a walkie-talkie from her bag.

During this period, she felt that it was inconvenient to communicate with each other since they lived in two different hospitals, so she gave Ming Peilan an intercom so that she could contact her directly with any news.

Now it just came in handy.

"Beep-beep-"

The intercom was muted.

Chen Qingqing frowned and pressed several times, but still no connection.
