Chapter 12 A Little Red Flower
But Chi Wan's request to Li Xingye also made Chi Yuanshan and Song Yinghe unable to control their expectations.
Li Xingye was silent for two seconds before he slowly said, "I'm not sure. After all, there is a space between you and me. Although I can control the two pots of fragrant vines, I can't sense the other plants on your side.
"I'm not sure if this is because the conditions have not been met, or if my abilities have been reduced too much. So as for the fruit tree, I can only try, but I can't guarantee that I can do it... Sorry."
Listening to Li Xingye's gentle voice, Chi Wan couldn't help but rub his ears, only to feel his earlobes getting a little hot.
For some reason, ever since Li Xingye controlled the two pots of fragrant vines, his voice changed from echoing in the space to suddenly ringing beside her ears.
A voice that is so close to my ear and too pleasant to hear.
And... it's a bit ambiguous.
After Li Xingye finished speaking with some guilt, he heard Chi Wan remained silent, and couldn't help feeling a little uneasy, worried that she would think that he was unwilling to help.
He was about to add a few more words when he heard Chi Wan's still cheerful voice: "What is there to apologize for? I was the one who asked you for help. It's a little late today, so why don't we try tomorrow? We can try again~"
Li Xingye finally breathed a sigh of relief, a smile on his face: "Okay. Call me anytime."
Chi Wan nodded, and then realized that Li Xingye couldn't see, so she responded sweetly: "Okay!"
After she finished communicating with Li Xingye, she looked at her parents who were staring at her intently and said with a smile, "The boss said he is not sure yet, but we can try it tomorrow."
Chi Yuanshan exhaled, "Okay, it's good to have hope. By the way, Wanwan, talk to this young man and tell him not to feel pressured. If he can succeed, that's the best. If not, that's okay too."
"Yes, yes, dear, don't worry too much. I was busy all night yesterday, and today I encountered this kind of thing again. I haven't had dinner yet, so mom will get you something to eat first."
After Song Yinghe finished speaking, she walked towards the kitchen, but Chi Wan looked at her and seemed to be quietly wiping away a tear.
I guess he was thinking about the danger that happened tonight and was getting scared.
Chi Yuanshan also saw this scene. He sighed and patted Chi Wan on the back gently. "Your mother always felt that the family was not doing you justice and cried secretly several times. But Wanwan, what happened today made Dad realize that you have indeed grown up and are stronger than we thought.
"Dad and Mom are so proud of you."
Chi Wan's nose felt sore, and he pretended to smile and said, "You guys, just wait for me to eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks from now on~"
Chi Yuanshan touched her head helplessly but with relief, and went to the kitchen to help Song Yinghe.

Unlike the warm moment at the Chi family, Li Xingye and his three companions returned to the base with food full of hope, but the smiles on their faces froze the moment they saw the gate of the base.
"Brother Ye, something is wrong. There are other smells in the base."
Cheng Peng's special ability is scent recognition, which is very useful for both tracking and investigation.
Although the gate of the base was closed at this time, it looked calm. But usually, before they got within 200 meters of the base, Lin Qi, who was in charge of guarding the gate, would have already come up to them and asked them with a smile what they had gained.
Today it was unusually quiet.
"Let's go in and take a look." Li Xingye said as he quickly rushed into the base.
When it comes to fighting, he has never been afraid of anyone. The only thing he was worried about were the ordinary people in the base.
Qiangzi thought of his sister who was still in the base, and he also showed an anxious look: "Our base is so remote, with Brother Ye who has the ninth-level superpower to support us, and it is close to the territory of the sixth-level zombies. Who would be so stupid as to pick a fight with us?!"
Li Xingye didn't say anything, but he suddenly thought of a very scary possibility: What if these people thought that they would die outside and would never come back?
This time when they went out to look for food, they were prepared to die outside.
Because everyone knows that there will be no new food.
What was left at the base was barely preserved thanks to the power of space. The only things left were compressed biscuits and water that was still poisonous even after layers of filtration.
Without supplies, everyone is doomed to starve to death after eating up all the food.
But Li Xingye was unwilling to give up. He wanted to go out and fight for the last chance of survival. If you really can't win, the worst that can happen is that you can just accept your fate calmly. At least you don't have to watch the tragic ending.
Fortunately, he waited for his salvation.
But for another group of people, have they already accepted that they will die outside without food?
Actually, to be honest, this idea is not wrong. After all, if it weren't for Chi Wan, they would have died of dehydration and hunger by now.
After saying that, Qiangzi realized something and stopped talking. Instead, he rushed into the base with Li Xingye with a sullen face.
After entering the gate, they saw Lin Qi's dead body with his eyes open, nailed high on the wall with a scimitar.
There was hardly any blood to bleed. Lin Qi's face, which was so thin that it was unrecognizable, still showed disbelief and unwillingness, as if he had not expected that he would die in this way.
"Seventh Brother!" Haozi shouted hoarsely, but no one could respond to him.
"Damn it, which beast did this!" Qiangzi looked at the base that used to be bustling with red eyes, but now the main road was empty.
Li Xingye used vines to put down Lin Qi's body and closed his eyes with his hands.
Picking up the unrusted scimitar, he walked towards the direction Cheng Peng pointed with a calm expression.
Everyone knows that the person with the best temper in the base is Li Xingye.
But the most terrifying thing when he is angry is the expressionless Li Xingye.
Because as he slowly stepped forward, the entire base began to tremble!
The smooth floor shattered layer by layer, as if something was constantly wriggling under the surface, turning up all the gray-black soil.
Li Xingye walked towards the largest warehouse in the base as if he were walking on flat ground.
Naturally, this terrifying movement could not be hidden from those who were still in the base.
Before I reached the warehouse, a man with dyed yellow hair stumbled out and knelt on the ground.
"Brother Li! I was wrong. I didn't know you...we shouldn't have come to your base! I'm leaving now, leaving now!"
Judging from his expression, he really didn't expect Li Xingye to come back.
But how did he know for sure?
Li Xingye didn't want to think about the possibilities hidden behind this answer. He just waved his hand lightly, and a gray-black vine rushed out from the ground like a giant snake.
Perhaps realizing that Li Xingye had no intention of listening to his explanation and had no intention of giving him a chance to live, a hint of viciousness flashed in the yellow-haired eyes.
He clenched his hands tightly behind his back!
Dozens of swords of various shapes suddenly appeared in the air, pointing directly at Li Xingye!
But Li Xingye seemed not to see anything, his eyes fell on the yellow-haired man's chest.
A small red flower bloomed there.
