Xiao Lin instructed Hai Dong and his group to take these people to register, then assign them accommodations, and told them that they owed him 10 jin of grain and that he would need to work to pay off the debt before returning home.
When Xiao Lin returned, he found that Xia He was still cultivating, but he could sense that Xia He was not far from breaking through to the Qi Forging stage.
So I spent the morning cultivating at home, and after a short rest, I went downstairs to handle base affairs.
First, people need to be assigned the latest base jobs, such as mushroom cultivation, cleaning, and canteen work.
At this moment, Hai Dong ran over to report that someone was causing trouble. Xiao Lin went to take a look and found that it was Chu Zhi, whom Xia He had asked to spare their lives. Now, Chu Zhi's face was pockmarked and her skin was not intact. She had been bitten by a panda before. Xiao Lin looked over, made a clicking sound, and shook his head.
"You, Zhao Gang! What are you doing! These are cookies I painstakingly collected! And you actually gave them to this bitch!"
The "bitch" Chu Zhi was referring to was a woman who had just been brought into the base by Xiao Lin and his group that day. The woman had a high nose bridge and deep-set eyes. Apart from her sallow complexion and severely sunken cheeks, it was clear that she was a rare beauty before the apocalypse.
The woman's face showed a look of horror. "Girl, I... I didn't know you collected these. This gentleman took pity on me and kindly gave them to me..."
Zhao Gang, who was standing next to her, said, "Go to hell, you damn bitch! Don't you even look at yourself? Don't I get a share of these cookies? Don't come out here scaring people with that horrible face on your face!" After saying that, he reached out and grabbed Chu Zhi's hair, pulling her aside.
"What's wrong with me giving a little girl some of my own biscuits! You're going too far! You dare to mess with me! Don't you remember you went out to find supplies?"
After saying that, he grabbed Chu Zhi's hair with one hand, lifted Chu Zhi's face up, and slapped Chu Zhi's face hard with the other hand.
"Damn it, such a dirty face, what bad luck, ptooey!"
Chu Zhi's face, which had only recently scabbed over, was reopened after being slapped. The blood that flowed out was instantly frozen, and Chu Zhi couldn't open her mouth too wide, because speaking would pull at the wound. Helpless, Chu Zhi could only slightly open her mouth and let out screams of "Ah! Ah! Ah!" from her throat.
Zhao Gang looked at Chu Zhi's bloody and frozen face with disgust.
Seeing this, Xiao Lin finally spoke up, "Stop! You can't cause trouble in the base, don't you know that?"
Zhao Gang said, "This is our own family matter. We didn't cause any trouble at the base. This bitch insisted on making a scene in public, and there was nothing I could do about it."
Although Xiao Lin didn't know what grudge these two had against Xia He, he remembered that Xia He had asked him to spare their lives, so he had someone take Chu Zhi to the infirmary for treatment, and then left without wanting to get involved.
Xiao Lin had secretly recorded this scene on his phone, thinking that he would show the video to Xia He after she finished her cultivation. With this in mind, Xiao Lin's steps became much lighter.
After dealing with trivial matters all afternoon, it was finally time to leave work in the evening.
Xiao Lin told Hai Dong that he would not be at the base at night, and that he should handle small matters himself, while calling him via satellite phone for important matters.
Then I went upstairs to check on the two little ones, fed them some dog food, and then packed up my gear to go out again.
Xiao Lin felt that he was too busy every day. After returning to Huiling Continent, he would definitely make Xia He make up for it!
