After Lin Dan fell asleep, Nie Ting felt a glimmer of hope in his heart: perhaps late at night, Liu Ye would suddenly appear in the sales office and take him away. However, when his eyes fell on the two large buckets of water that Lin Dan placed beside him, he became a little worried. Since Lin Dan dared to leave him alone and go to sleep, he must have something to rely on. Her strength is unfathomable. Who knows if these two buckets of water will suddenly turn into two water dragons or countless ice blades after the willow leaves appear? It seems that it is better for Liu Ye not to appear.
But despite thinking this, Nie Ting was still a little disappointed that Liu Ye didn't show up until the next morning.
The group set off after breakfast. Lin Dan only took Nie Ting with her. She neither killed nor saved the rest of the Nirvana team members. She just went with them. If they are injured, they have to bear it themselves, and whether they live or die depends on their luck; if they don’t have supplies, they have to go find them themselves, so what does it have to do with Lin Dan whether they starve to death?
Thinking back to when Lin Dan was in the Nirvana team, she lived a life like this. She treated others the same way they treated her, and she had a clear conscience. Don't tell her that people in the apocalypse should help each other. If she helps these heartless, ruthless and ungrateful people, will they change their nature and become warm and kind? No, they will only feel more at ease enjoying the help from others.
Lin Dan vaguely remembered such a story: There were two brothers who originally lived a very rich life, but one day, their family suffered a disaster and they had to flee separately. The elder brother said to his younger brother: “I will go and ask for help from the people who helped me before.” The younger brother said: “I will go and ask for help from the people I helped before.” In the end, the elder brother survived but the younger brother died.
Why? Because that is human nature. Kind people always give, while cruel people always take. Why did she not help the kind people but save a group of ungrateful people? There are too many ungrateful people, which is a disaster for everyone. It is better to let them fend for themselves.
Hearing Luo Yuyan begging Luo Yuheng to take the wounded of the Nirvana team away, Lin Dan made a decision: "Don't worry about them, let's go." After saying that, he walked directly towards a jeep.
Luo Yuyan didn't dare to speak and could only wink at her brother.
Luo Yuheng heaved a sigh of relief, but looked helpless. He spread his hands and said, "Don't come to me. I'm no longer the leader of this team. Go ask your sister Lin."
"Oh, forget it." Luo Yuyan didn't dare to bother Lin Dan and could only sigh on the spot. Don't be fooled by Lin Danwen's gentle, cold and aloof appearance, seeming to be easy to talk to, but in fact she is a very principled person, once she has made up her mind she will never change it, and she will definitely accomplish what she wants to do.
After the battle in the rain, Luo Yuyan thought with lingering fear: No wonder Sister Lin went to the store to find an umbrella and raincoat on the way. In fact, at that time, she had already made up her mind to kill some people from the Nirvana team. She made preparations in advance to prevent Dr. Xiao, who has mysophobia, from being affected during the battle. From this we can see how determined her character is and how ruthless her methods are. While others only take a small step, she has already taken dozens or even hundreds of steps.
Luo Yuyan was extremely in awe of Lin Dan, yet she also admired him immensely. Naturally, she would listen to whatever he said and would never dare to raise any objections. She bit her lower lip, looked hesitantly at the wounded members of the Nirvana team, and finally ran towards the jeep.
"Sister Lin, let me help you drive. You kept the radiator hot all night last night, so you must not have slept well." She said with a smile.
Lin Dan was happy to be served and didn't say anything, but Xiao Junlin frowned and looked slightly cold. He glanced to the side and saw Xiao Qiu, who was supposed to leave with the members of the Nirvana team, immediately ran over, squeezed Luo Yuyan aside and got on the driver's seat, saying firmly: "I'll drive, you go away."
"Who are you?" Luo Yuyan felt pain in her shoulder from the collision and couldn't help but pout.
"I am Dr. Xiao's personal driver. You have nothing to do here. Go stay in another car!" Xiao Qiu bared his teeth with a very arrogant attitude.
"Why should I go to another car? This car belongs to our fleet, and you are the one who should go." Luo Yuyan put her hands on her hips, looking angry.
"Then I'll return the car to you and drive my own car." Xiao Qiu immediately jumped out of the driver's seat, ran to an SUV not far away, and then waved to Lin Dan and Dr. Xiao frequently.
Lin Dan knew that she was the doctor's puppet, but it was the first time she saw her quarreling with someone else. She really looks like a girl in her early twenties, very competitive, lively and natural. If everything she did was controlled by the Doctor, doesn't that mean that the Doctor also wants to quarrel with Luo Yuyan?
Thinking of this, Lin Dan couldn't help but shudder and quickly erased the absurd picture from his mind. No way, how could a cool and aloof person like the Doctor do such a childish thing? It must be that Xiao Qiu's true nature has not been completely wiped out by the doctor, which is why it was stimulated.
Thinking of this, she nodded, trying to confirm her guess.
Xiao Junlin glanced at her with a half-smile, and said slowly: "Let's go, get in Xiao Qiu's car, I don't trust outsiders."
"Okay, Doctor." Lin Dan nodded immediately, then looked at Luo Yuyan apologetically: "Xiao Yu, thank you. Doctor, you are used to Xiao Qiu's car, so we won't bother you."
"No trouble, no trouble, Sister Lin, you go ahead." Luo Yuyan waved her hands quickly, looking embarrassed. After the two of them walked away, she said in an inaudible voice: "Actually, I drive very steadily, you will know after you have sat in it once."
Lin Dan heard her words but did not turn around. It was the Doctor's decision as to whose car to ride, not hers. When she passed by Nie Ting, she hooked her finger and said, "Let's go together and see when your girlfriend will come to rescue you. By the way, I didn't watch over you last night. Did she show up? I thought you had disappeared when I opened my eyes."
Nie Ting knew that she was trying to sow discord between them. He sneered on the surface, but felt as if a knife was cutting his heart. Liu Ye didn't show up the whole night. Nie Ting had no way of knowing whether she didn't dare or had never come at all. However, he was very clear that what Lin Dan said, "I wasn't guarding you at all," was absolutely a 100% lie.
Last night he had been staring at the water in the bucket without daring to blink. He thought he was frightened by Lin Dan and had gone mad. However, he did not expect that in the middle of the night, a team member went out to urinate, and his footsteps became a little heavier. The water in the bucket turned into a water snake, with its head raised and fangs bared, staring at the team member's every move. It seemed to have its own life. Its head would turn to wherever the sound came from, ready to attack at any time and place.
Nie Ting looked at the water snake, then looked at the closed door of the lounge, and instantly broke out in a cold sweat. He was wondering, was Lin Dan asleep? If she wasn't asleep, how did she control the water snake from a distance of dozens of meters? If she fell asleep, wouldn't she be able to control everything around her at any time even when she was in a dream?
No matter what, Lin Dan’s strength is too terrifying. As long as she is given some water, she can do anything! After being tortured by fear for a whole night, Nie Ting's feelings towards Lin Dan have become very complicated. Hatred is inevitable, but there is more admiration and fear. He sat next to Lin Dan, appearing exceptionally silent.
Of course, Lin Dan had no intention of paying attention to him. She was busy disinfecting the carriage with a water film to prevent the doctor from feeling uncomfortable sitting there.
Xiao Junlin stood outside the car door with his hands in his pockets in a lazy manner, but his eyes were fixed on Lin Dan. It was unknown what he was thinking about, but he chuckled twice.
…………
Base No. 1 is located in the southwest inland. The road is difficult to travel on, so the group went around in circles, wasting a lot of time.
Two months later, seeing the fortress-like gate of the base not far away, Luo Yuyan turned on the intercom and shouted excitedly: "Sister Lin, did you see it? That's our base. Isn't it spectacular?"
Lin Dan stuck his head out of the car window and looked at the towering city wall that was tens of meters high and reinforced layer by layer with steel bars, steel plates, cement and other building materials. He nodded and said, "Well, it is indeed spectacular."
Luo Yuyan explained enthusiastically: "Sister Lin, this wall was built by the gold, earth, and wood psychics in our base in three months. After that, it was reinforced every half a month, and gradually it has reached its current size. Even a 17-magnitude typhoon and a 10-magnitude earthquake cannot shake it. It also has turrets and watchtowers, which can accommodate hundreds of thousands of troops. It is the strongest fortress in the end times. The other two large bases cannot compare with our base. However, it is precisely because we built such a fortress at all costs that we consumed all the food and supplies and became the poorest base."
"We have done our best to come up with five tons of food to issue a mission to rescue the doctor. It is definitely not because our leader is stingy. Sister Lin, the leaders of other bases only care about their own survival and keep the supplies to themselves, unwilling to distribute them to the people. But we are different. Our goal is to save all the survivors and to keep all mankind alive."
When talking about Base No. 1, Luo Yuyan's tone was full of pride.
Lin Dan looked at the huge creature in front of him, and was captivated by its grandeur and even felt a sense of yearning for it. If this base is really as good as Luo Yuyan described, I could live here permanently. She looked at Xiao Junlin and asked in a low voice: "Doctor, what do you think of this place?"
Xiao Junlin waved his hand nonchalantly: "I don't care, I'll go wherever you go."
Lin Dan's cheeks flushed slightly, and she emphasized: "I will listen to you and follow you." If it weren't for the doctor's protection along the way, she would never have the strength to protect herself, let alone walk here alive. She owes the Doctor more than just her life?
Xiao Junlin seemed pleased by her words, and said with a curled lip corner: "Then settle down here."
