Only after everything was over did my heart calm down.
The poisoning wouldn't heal in a short time, so Xiang Yuping endured his physical discomfort and came over to thank him.
"It's nothing, Captain Xiang. We're all from the same base, it's only right that we help each other out."
With a broad smile, Xiang Yuping held Yu Yanbin's hand and kept saying "good, good, good" several times.
"How are you? Are you feeling alright?" Yu Yanbin asked with concern.
"Not yet, it looks like we can't go back today."
Yu Yanbin and the others had already figured it out; they must have been poisoned by a toxin that causes dizziness and weakness.
Didn't they see that the poisoned people were unable to move and could only be dragged over by the mutated plants?
"Since we can't go back today, we should make plans sooner rather than later," Cheng Shaolin said, glancing around.
Xiang Yuping nodded, "That's right, we should make plans as soon as possible." Then he gathered the team members, checked the number of people, and made arrangements.
"It's getting late, and the rain is getting heavier. Let's make some arrangements," Cheng Shaolin said to Yu Yanbin.
Yu Yanbin glanced at Xiang Yuping and nodded in agreement.
Going back alone isn't safe either. It seems like Xiang Yuping's group won't recover today, so it's better to find a place to make arrangements as soon as possible.
For everyone's safety, this is the safest plan.
"Xiaoxiao."
“Hmm.” Li Xiao looked at Cheng Shaolin, waiting for him to speak.
Cheng Shaolin raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "You should clear out some things you might need tonight and put them away first, you might need them later."
Li Xiao knew what Cheng Shaolin meant just by looking into his eyes, so she nodded to show that she understood.
After Cheng Shaolin understood that Li Xiao understood his meaning, he didn't say anything more. He turned to Yu Yanbin and discussed the next steps with him.
Seeing that everything was alright, Li Xiao found a place to take shelter from the rain. Her consciousness entered the space, and she was still thinking about what she would need for the night.
With so many people, it seems none of them intend to stay overnight; they probably haven't made any preparations.
At the very least, there probably isn't much food or drink available. Several teams need to eat and drink, so these things need to be taken into account.
It's not that I want to play the saint, it's just that circumstances have changed, and I can't remain unaffected.
Are we just going to stand by and do nothing? That's not realistic.
Li Xiao actually had some ideas, and this was a good time to befriend him.
She wasn't planning on making it too fancy; she was just going to make do for tonight. She wasn't going to give away much to so many people; she wasn't that stupid.
Having made up my mind, I gradually cleared out the space around me, putting together what I needed.
Cheng Shaolin walked over, knowing what Li Xiao was doing, but didn't ask any further questions.
Li Xiao remained conscious outside the room and, knowing it was Cheng Shaolin, asked, "Brother, is this alright?"
Cheng Shaolin lowered his voice and said, "Well, we don't know how long we'll have to live in this base. As long as we stay here, there's always the risk of being exposed. So we might as well expose ourselves."
Li Xiao felt the same way. Since they were living in this base, they couldn't possibly never use the space, unless they didn't use it at all.
Is that possible?
The answer is definitely no.
If that's the case, why not choose an opportunity to expose yourself proactively? You can gain the most advantage for yourself, so why not?
They're both clever and perceptive; they both thought of this.
That's why Cheng Shaolin asked Li Xiao to prepare things.
"But there won't be much stuff, I'm not going to be a sucker," Li Xiao said, pouting.
Cheng Shaolin looked at her amusedly and pulled her into his arms. "I didn't ask you to be a sucker. Everyone's smart enough. If you take too much, it will only arouse suspicion."
Li Xiao nodded. That's right. People don't have much space these days. If you bring something that exceeds their psychological capacity, that's not a good thing.
"Just help out in an emergency, that's enough. Let's not cause any trouble. Just show your face, and you can decide what to take as you see fit."
"Okay, just bring some food and drinks, not too much."
"Okay. You decide for yourself." Cheng Shaolin knew that Li Xiao was sensible and he trusted her to handle things.
It's raining heavily, let's find somewhere to take shelter.
The mutated plants here have been eradicated, so it's fine to rest here.
Shao Jie ran inside and looked around, but there wasn't a single zombie inside.
It must have been taken care of by the mutated plants, so there's no need to clean it up anymore.
Cheng Shaolin pulled Li Xiao along as they walked inside. The factory was definitely dusty inside.
A wind-type ability user swept away all the dust inside, while a wood-type ability user made some benches for the poisoned people to sit and rest.
Meng Yang and Qiu Fengyu also helped out. They had plenty of supernatural abilities, which was much better than those sickly supernatural beings.
Only when everyone is seated can they relax and get some rest.
"Captain Yu, I'd like to trouble you to keep an eye on things. Aimei doesn't have much combat power right now."
Yu Yanbin knew what to do without Xiang Yuping saying anything. "Captain Xiang, you don't need to say anything more. You can rest. I'll take care of the rest. Don't worry."
Xiang Yuping was sincerely grateful and wished he could go up and hug Yu Yanbin.
"Okay, thank you very much."
Yu Yanbin had already discussed it with Cheng Shaolin, and they agreed that their own people would help look after things, as it was unrealistic to rely on those other people.
They're all people with no fighting ability; what can you expect them to do?
Once the first battalion from the base arrives, they won't need to worry about anything.
They can help out now and make a good impression.
And that's exactly what happened. About half an hour later, the captain of the first brigade arrived with his men.
