Chapter 237 Entering the Base Camp
"I don't have much say, I just listen to him." Shen Yisui looked at Cheng Jingyi and asked, "What do you think?"
Cheng Jingyi noticed that the two people in front of him turned their eyes to him again and were suddenly speechless.
He pulled his hand back and said in a bad tone, "If you want to leave, leave quickly. But I've made it clear in advance that if something happens, I won't have the time to take care of you."
Yi raised an eyebrow, but he didn't care. He curled Ruo Ruo's short hair with his fingertips and said, "Ruo Ruo, don't you thank your brother?"
He turned his head weakly. He was still a little afraid of Cheng Jingyi. He just hugged Yi Yi's thigh and said timidly: "...Thank you, brother."
Cheng Jingyi: “…”
He ignored the two people inside, turned around and walked out quickly with Shen Yisui.
The two sausages were still on the ground. Ruo Ruo watched Cheng Jingyi walk out of the cave. She seized the opportunity and ran forward to pick up the two sausages. Then she turned around and stuffed them all to Yi Yi.
Yi Yi smiled and said, "I'm not hungry."
"No." He answered the question irrelevantly. He muttered a few words in a low voice and forcefully gave the two sausages to Yi Yi.
"Okay, okay, I'm hungry." Yi Yi put the things in his pocket. His tone was somewhat helpless. He lowered his eyes and looked at Ruo Ruo and said, "You want me to hold you?"
Ruo Ruo didn't say anything else. His eyes quickly flashed across Yi Yi's dislocated arm, and he repeated, "No, I can walk."
Yi Yi stretched out her hand to him: "Then hold me."
Ruo Ruo has a limp. Normally he walks so slowly that it is not noticeable, but once the people around him speed up, he will obviously lag behind the majority of the group.
Ruo Ruo remained silent. He knew his own shortcomings and reached out to hold Yi Yi's palm tightly.
Cheng Jingyi and the others were still parked at the corner of the building in front. When Yi saw them, he quickened his pace and walked over.

Cheng Jingyi had previously used spatial perception to understand the distribution of all the zombies around him, including those buildings, which he knew well.
Originally, he was thinking about how to avoid those high-level zombies from entering the base camp. There were many routes for them to enter, but if he wanted to avoid them completely, he would have to take a detour.
The appearance of Ruo Ruo solved this problem very well.
If they used his abilities, they would just have to blend in with a group of low-level zombies and follow them in.
Cheng Jingyi gave the plan to Shen Yisui, who felt his way around the route on the ground and found nothing wrong.
"This is the building closest to the base camp. Tomorrow at noon, there will be several groups of zombies gathering together. We can just sneak in." Cheng Jingyi said.
"Okay, let Ruo Ruo stand in the middle then." Shen Yisui wiped off the patterns and scratches on the ground. He took out some crystal cores from his pocket and said, "These are for you. Are you better now?"
Cheng Jingyi looked at Shen Yisui's palm. The pure red crystal core fell on his skin, making the tiny scar there more obvious and dazzling.
Cheng Jingyi didn't answer: "You hide some private money?"
"..." Shen Yisui frowned slightly, "I dug this up when I went out at night. I happened to come across two zombies and dug them up. They are both mid-level, and they are very useful for healing."
The crystal core was indeed clearer and more transparent than the previous ones. Cheng Jingyi looked at it for a while and finally reached out to take it.
"You're so powerful. Looks like I'll have to rely on you to support me in the future." Cheng Jingyi said casually.
"Of course, I will support you." Shen Yisui said, rubbing the scar on Cheng Jingyi's chest through his clothes.
Cheng Jingyi felt a little itchy. He half-supported himself and sat on the ground. He raised his head and kissed the corner of Shen Yisui's lips: "Is this also an apology gift?"
Shen Yisui smiled: "No, this is a gift."
"Oh..." Cheng Jingyi said in a long tone. He squinted his eyes comfortably and asked again, "Why did you give it to me?"
"I want to give it to you." Shen Yisui raised his eyes, "It just so happens that I have something to give as a gift."
Cheng Jingyi chuckled. He and Shen Yisui whispered in each other's ears for a while, and out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of something in Shen Yisui's pocket.
There are still a few small crystal cores left inside. They don't look high-level and were all dug out from the brains of low-level zombies.
Cheng Jingyi withdrew his gaze. He vaguely guessed Shen Yisui's intention and looked towards the darkness not far away: "Where are the two of them?"
"They are all in the next room. Yiyi was injured and was too weak and timid to come out."
Cheng Jingyi nodded secretly, he leaned back against the wall again, and whispered: "Yi Yi is not a good person, you should be careful."
"I know." Shen Yisui's pupils moved, "But you still need to improve your favorability."
Cheng Jingyi: “…”
"You take a rest first, I'll go next door." Shen Yisui stood up. Before leaving, he thought of something and took out two cans from the bag next to him.
Yi Yi and Ruo Ruo hid in a compartment further inside, separated from Shen Yisui by a wall. This was just an abandoned factory, with cracks and frost all over the concrete walls. Shen Yisui kept an eye on their movements, and after entering, he stood at the door and asked.
Ruo Ruo's presence was very low, and Shen Yisui didn't know where they were.
"...Here." The voice was weak and faint.
Shen Yisui heard the sound and walked towards the corner of the broken half.
"These things are for you. I see you are badly injured. These crystal cores should be useful." Shen Yisui said as he took out all the remaining small crystal cores in his pocket.
There were quite a few crystal cores, which fell to the ground with a rustling sound. Ruo Ruo stood by and watched. Shen Yisui noticed him and gave him a can of food to fill his stomach.
"Thank you." Ruo Ruo took the can, sat back next to Yi Yi, and deliberately leaned forward to smell the scent on Shen Yisui.
It smells just as good as always, just like his body.
She held the can weakly and moved a little closer to Shen Yisui silently.
Yi Yi saw all of Ruo Ruo's little movements, but he didn't pay much attention to him. He just picked up the crystal cores and said in surprise: "Did you dig all these? I remember you are blind."
"I can only use some special abilities." Shen Yisui said, "And the zombies I encountered were all low-level zombies."
Yi Yi raised an eyebrow: "That's amazing, what is your special ability?"
Shen Yisui had been waiting for Yi Yi to say this. He sat opposite Yi Yi and said, "Turn water into ice."
"Oh?" Yi Yi seemed to be surprised. He raised his chin and looked at Shen Yisui with a silent smile, "So, we are destined to be together?"
He can make small drops of rainwater, and Shen Yisui can make ice. When these two pieces of useless wood collide with each other, it seems that they can actually be of some small use.
Shen Yisui said, "Our abilities complement each other, do you want to cooperate?"
Yi Yi thought for a moment and said, "Of course, I can, but how do I do it?"
"It's very simple." Shen Yisui drew a demonstration diagram on the ground with a stone. "We can help each other and just follow the diagram when the time comes. How about that?"
