Chapter 107: Reunion by Fate



All the supplies that could be taken away, including two bags of flour for food, were taken away by the Song sisters. Only the splitting axe, the Ming Dynasty hammer and the miniature stone mill were left. They thought they were too heavy, so they left them. I just picked up the leftovers. The hammer was not very practical, but the splitting axe could be used to chop firewood, so I took it for self-defense.

There weren't many things, which made it easier for Yunwen and I to escape.

We left the earthen tower, walked along the playground, and passed the iron fence. I couldn't help but worry in my heart, so I decided to go back and check the battle situation to feel at ease. I took Yunwen to squat under a tree and peek at the situation near the underground entrance. But the scene I saw shocked me immediately. I saw that the nine-tailed white fox was covered in glaring red blood, and its huge body was still breathing. There were also many dead red fox corpses lying around it.

And the underground monster Joseph was still strolling nearby, looking around with his red eyes and roaring violently.

My eyes couldn't help but well up in tears. That beautiful fox fairy didn't need to treat me like this. She warned me to leave early, but I didn't listen and insisted on taking this and that into consideration. In the end, I got into trouble, and she lost her life for me and harmed her sister!

My fists were clenched tightly, my throat tightened involuntarily, and I gritted my teeth in hatred. I really wanted to cut Joseph into pieces and beat him so hard that even his own mother wouldn't be able to recognize him. Unfortunately, I was powerless to do so and it was just my imagination.

At this moment, a voice came in my head. It was exactly what the fox fairy beauty had told me before, that only by finding the supreme treasure can I survive. In other words, only by finding the supreme treasure can I have the ability to fight that guy. I think this should be the meaning.

No matter what, I can't let the beautiful fox fairy die in vain for me. If I can't avenge her, how can a man of my blood live?

It just so happens that there is someone here who knows the most about treasure hunting. She is a woman who has carefully studied all the clues on the bronze artifacts and memorized them by heart. If we want to go looking for it, I think she will be able to provide accurate information clues.

Let's get out of danger first. As the saying goes, there is hope. I hurriedly took Yunwen and slowly retreated from here, running towards the west hillside, intending to catch up with Bailu and the others. I first lowered my body and tried not to make any noise. After hiding for a hundred meters, I ran with Yunwen, hoping to find Bailu and the others.

But when he ran to the slope where Yunwen was buried alive last time, he still didn't see the Song sisters. Looking at the footprints and the wheel marks of the wooden ox and flowing horse, they should have run to the west first, and then hurriedly changed direction in the woods, intending to bypass the entire blockhouse area and find another road to the east from behind it. The east direction would lead to the piranha pool.

"Zhou Bo, I feel a little tired. Can I take a rest before going on?" Yunwen held her chest and coughed a few times.

I quickly helped her sit down and said, "Okay, that monster still has the genes of a mouse, which must have strengthened its wretched and timid side. It won't easily cross the border and run out. Otherwise, with its speed, those foxes would have died long ago, so this place should be safe for the time being."

Yunwen nodded and said distressedly: "This monster is so terrible. It killed so many fox friends in one go, and even killed a nine-tailed white fox. It is so hateful and cruel. It's a pity for those fox friends. They were living happily and carefree."

As she said this, I felt more guilty. I sighed and said, "It was all my fault. You may not believe me, but they died to cover my retreat, giving me enough time to get away from that monster."

After hearing this, Yunwen was silent for a while, then looked up at the sky and said sadly: "Each of them is very smart, just like my friends, but I don't even have a chance to bury them."

As she spoke, tears streamed down her face, she sniffed, and her eyes turned red.

I patted her shoulder gently, not knowing what to say. At this time, she slowly leaned on my shoulder, put her arms around my neck, and put her face on my shoulder, crying even more sadly.

I thought a lot. If I find the Song sisters, they will definitely not be willing to spend time looking for the so-called supreme treasure, because in their philosophy, as long as they can protect their own lives and guard a corner, they can live in peace and do not need to ask for anything else. They will not understand the idea that the fox fairy beauty died for me and I need to avenge her.

In addition, the situation of Yunwen's virus is uncertain, and the two sisters have long been afraid of Yunwen. If Yunwen has another attack, I think if they keep Yunwen among them, sooner or later something will happen to abandon her. This kind of thing happens frequently.

After thinking about it, I had other plans, so I said to Yunwen, "Yunwen, how about we act alone, not looking for the sisters, but looking for the Supreme Treasure?"

Yunwen got up from my shoulder, opened her eyes wide, and asked hurriedly: "Zhou Bo, are you serious? Think about it, all the canned food, flour and other food are in their hands, plus some key supplies are also there. If we don't go to find them, what will we eat? You said that food and grass must be sent before troops move. If we can't even get there with food, how can we find the supreme treasure? Isn't this a desperate move?"

I sighed and said, "First, I have always been the one to find food, so we can survive without flour. Second, the flour and wheat seeds are in their hands. We don't need to worry if they find a place to live and live a stable life. We don't have to worry about leaving the food to them. Third, do you think they will welcome us back from the bottom of their hearts?"

Yunwen thought for a moment, smiled bitterly, and said, "I'm afraid my condition is still uncertain. If I flare up again, they will definitely be unhappy. You're right. It's appropriate to separate now. This is also good for them."

I took Yunwen's hand. She didn't resist. Instead, she opened her slender palm and clasped my fingers. I looked at her seriously and said, "Yunwen, this is my plan. If the virus in your body cannot be cured and this medicine cannot completely cure it, I will accompany you to the end. After that, I will bury you properly. When I find the supreme treasure and avenge the nine-tailed white fox and those foxes, I will accompany you in the underworld."

"No! If I really die, you should go find Bailu and the others, and don't come to accompany me." Yunwen said coquettishly.

I smiled. I didn't want to take back what I said.

"Okay, then it's settled. We'll go our separate ways for now. If we're destined to meet again, we can come back here to find them. How about that?" I said.

"Okay, I'll listen to you... But before you leave, can you accompany me to see them? I'll feel more at ease knowing that they are living a safe and stable life." Yunwen looked at me pleadingly.

I nodded.

We sat there until night, and Yunwen and I recovered a little strength, so we followed the footprints and wheel marks all the way forward. There were traces along the way, so after walking for a long time, we found the two of them. They were near a hillside near the pool area. The structure here is a bit like our Huoquan old house. Next to the pool, Bailu specially dug a diversion as a water intake point to avoid conflict with piranhas.

Secondly, there are many trees here, so it is unlikely to be targeted by birds of prey. The only killer monster here has also been identified, and it is the biochemical monster Joseph. Joseph has no human consciousness and can only hide in holes like a mouse. He will not easily leave the area he is familiar with, so he will not pose a threat to Bai Lu and the others.

Bailu and Yingchun could surely survive for two or three months with the existing food, which was considered comfortable.

Yunwen and I were watching them in the moonlight nearby, and then Yunwen said indifferently, "Let's go. We'll meet them again if we're destined to."
