Seeing that the remaining mutated rats had all run away, Assistant Wang walked over to Ang Lian and the others and asked them with concern.
"Captain Li, how are you? Are you injured?"
Li Yan shook his head. "We weren't injured, but some of the soldiers we brought with us were slightly wounded."
"No problem, let the soldiers go to our hospital to get bandaged up. Everyone who is injured, go to the hospital to get bandaged up."
Assistant Wang spoke to Li Yan briefly, then shouted loudly to the others.
The injured people helped each other walk toward the hospital.
Li Yan also told their soldiers, "Everyone, those who are injured, go to the hospital for treatment."
The soldiers began to move, following the injured residents to the hospital.
Those who were uninjured stayed behind to clean up the battlefield.
Ye Yunxi was about to go and clean up the battlefield when Assistant Wang stopped her.
"Miss Ye, you don't need to clean here, just leave it to us. You've worked hard making the potions these past two days, go back and rest."
Furthermore, Miss Ye's potion and powder are indeed effective; the mutated rats immediately lie down upon contact with them.
Ye Yunxi smiled at Assistant Wang. "As long as it works well. If it's not enough, we can talk to our base manager, Wu, about cooperation."
Assistant Wang nodded. "I will report this to Chief Zhao. Thank you so much, Miss Ye. Alright, you can go and rest now; you don't need to worry about this place."
Li Yan thanked Assistant Wang and told Ye Yunxi and the others to go back and rest, and that they could discuss anything else tomorrow. He would take care of things here.
They stopped talking. They were indeed quite tired. They had only rested for about an hour while making potions and powders, and the outbreak of mutated rats had further depleted their strength. All they wanted to do now was lie down and rest.
Ye Yunxi and her group ignored what was happening downstairs and went upstairs to their rooms to sleep.
After returning to their respective rooms, Ye Yunxi took Yunzi to their room. She hadn't noticed before, but now she saw some bloodstains on Yunzi's legs.
Startled, she lifted Yunzi's leg to look here and there.
If no wounds were found, then it's not Yunzi's blood, but the blood of a mutated rat.
Unexpectedly, Yunzi showed no fear in the face of this ferocious mutated rat and went straight for it.
However, just to be on the safe side, Ye Yunxi still checked everywhere, but in the end she couldn't find any wounds, so she took out some spiritual spring water from her space and gave it to Yunzi to drink.
Ye Yunxi glanced at the time and realized it was getting late, so she let Yunzi sleep in their room while she and Fu Heng went to bed to rest.
The next morning, the wounded at Base One only sustained minor injuries. Li Yan had originally planned to return to base that day, but Base Chief Zhao said there was no rush and it wouldn't be too late for the wounded to rest for a day before leaving. He also said he would treat them to dinner that evening.
Li Yan had no choice but to agree to Base Chief Zhao's request.
He told Ye Yunxi and the others the news, and he wasn't surprised by what Li Yan said.
After all, yesterday was a fierce battle, so naturally there were many injured people and many who needed bandaging. It's normal to let them rest for a day before they leave.
Director Zhao will be hosting them that evening; the payment for the pharmaceutical work can be asked for during dinner.
They were all resting in their rooms and hadn't come out to explore. Or they were sitting together chatting.
Soon it was past six o'clock in the afternoon when Assistant Wang came to find them, saying that Base Commander Zhao had prepared dinner and invited them to come over for dinner.
After Li Yan thanked Assistant Wang, he took out a walkie-talkie.
"Hey everyone, please take note. We're going to eat. We'll meet downstairs later."
Ye Yunxi and the others were having a great time chatting when they suddenly heard Li Yan's voice coming from the walkie-talkie.
It turned out they were being called down to gather for lunch.
After tidying up Ye Yunxi's living room, the group went downstairs to gather and line up.
When they came downstairs, they saw Li Yan and the others waiting downstairs, and they quickly went over to them.
After waiting for two minutes, Li Yan saw that everyone had arrived, and smiled at Assistant Wang.
"Assistant Wang, our team has all arrived."
Assistant Wang nodded. "Then come with me!"
They all followed Assistant Wang, and after walking for a while, they arrived at the canteen, where they saw Base Commander Zhao already sitting and waiting for them.
When Chief Zhao saw Ye Yunxi and the others arrive, he smiled and said...
"Captain Li, you're here. Come on, sit down quickly, we're about to start eating."
Li Yan gestured for them to sit down and then smiled as he spoke to Base Chief Zhao.
"Chief Zhao, thank you so much. I've troubled you twice."
"What are you saying, Captain Li? What do you mean by spending money twice? The first time was to welcome you, and this time it's to celebrate yesterday."
I'm very grateful for your help yesterday; otherwise, most of my people at the Sixth Base would have been killed or wounded. Of course, the most important thing is the help from Miss Ye and your friends.
"Without the potions and powders you made, our base wouldn't be where it is today."
Commander Zhao praised each and every one of Li Yan and his team with a smile, but he didn't mention anything about compensation.
Ye Yunxi listened to what Commander Zhao said and said to him.
“We are all compatriots, and it is only right that we help each other. Besides, didn’t Commander Zhao promise us that he would give us compensation? Right, Commander Zhao?”
Commander Zhao looked slightly embarrassed. He hadn't forgotten about the payment, so why wouldn't he give it to him?
"Don't worry, Miss Ye, I've already had it prepared and it will be brought over shortly. Alright, let's eat first. Assistant Wang has asked the kitchen staff to serve the dishes."
Ye Yunxi knew, of course, that Chief Zhao wouldn't forget; she was just kindly reminding him.
The food was served quickly, and Commander Zhao told them to start eating. They ate and chatted at the same time.
After a hearty meal, Commander Zhao had two boxes of gold brought in, saying it was a reward for Ye Yunxi and her friends.
The other box was for Li Yan and the soldiers, as a way of thanking them for protecting the Sixth Base.
Li Yan and the others accepted the gold, planning to distribute it upon returning to the first base. They also informed Ye Yunxi and the others that they would depart at nine o'clock tomorrow morning and wouldn't return to the base until evening.
The next morning, Ye Yunxi and the others got up, had a simple breakfast, packed their luggage, Ye Yunxi put the bedding into her space, and then took the ones from the wardrobe to put on the bed.
After we finished getting ready, we went downstairs together with Fu Heng, Xuan Yu, Lu Hengyi, and Yun Zi.
I saw some soldiers waiting; they all had minor injuries and would be fine returning to base today.
After waiting a few minutes, Gu Qingqing and the others came down. Seeing that everyone had arrived, Li Yan told them to head to the parking lot.
A group of people walked to the parking lot and put everything in the car, including the gold that Ye Yunxi and the others had obtained, which was also put in the truck.
Li Yan, representing them, chatted briefly with Assistant Wang and Base Chief Zhao before bidding them farewell. After getting into the car, the word "Departure" came through the walkie-talkie.
Everyone drove out of the Sixth Base and headed towards the First Base.
