The Yang City migrant workers team became famous in this way.
Although information transmission was difficult under the torrential rain, many people had heard about this incident. Those who were trying to recruit certain people from Yang City were dumbfounded. Didn't they say that the team would be disbanded on the spot? Didn't Ye Xiao have any intention of expanding his own power? So, the team was disbanded, and now a work team was formed. What was the purpose of this?
More people focus on the fact that these people receive really high salaries from the military.
Ningshi Base has a population of several million, and the base cannot support so many people for nothing. If they want to survive, they have to find ways to earn food. However, there are only so many jobs in the base that can earn food, and compared to the huge population base, it is not enough. The labor force far exceeds the demand, and the salary is naturally suppressed to an extremely low level.
And now, a group of people who have just arrived at the base can find such high-paying jobs the next day. They can earn a living from the military without joining the army. Isn't it enviable?
"Why don't we go too?" Somewhere in the base, a person with superpowers had an idea. There was only so much that could be done on a rainy day. Instead of staying in the house, it would be better to go to the city wall and kill zombies to earn some food.
"It's raining so heavily, and some zombies can climb up the city walls. It's too dangerous." Some people also objected.
"I think we should join the Youth League. They treat us really well and provide us with food and drink," someone else said.
Needless to say, this is a person with special abilities who has not yet or is unwilling to find an organization. At present, people with organizations always have a good life. Even if they are special abilities, it will be difficult to fight alone, especially if they have family members to support them.
"I heard a few days ago that the Qingying Society and the Gale Team got into a fight outside over supplies, and dozens of people died," another person said. "After those people died, their families were expelled from the Qingying Society."
The others fell silent for a moment.
The first psychic who spoke suddenly said, "Anyway, I'm going to try it tomorrow. My mother is sick, and I need to get her something nutritious to eat."
So many people followed the example of the Yang City Work Team and wanted to use their combat power to exchange for supplies with the military. However, the military was not a charity. First of all, they didn't want those whose superpowers were not strong enough. They wanted those who could really kill a lot of zombies. Secondly, it was impossible for them to offer such a high reward.
As a result, at the end of the day, the psychics did not get what they expected. In addition, some psychics disliked each other and pushed each other, causing them to fall from the slippery city wall and be eaten into pieces by zombies.
After hearing about this, the migrant workers in Yang City checked their safety ropes again.
On February 1st, which was the fourth day after the heavy rain, when the work team came to work again, other people with special abilities came over and expressed their desire to join.
Bai Cheng smiled slightly, someone finally came.
He felt the foundation of these psychics and only those with strong enough strength would stay and help them negotiate with the officers stationed on the city wall. After they succeeded, he brought these people to Ye Xiao and said, "Ah Xiao, these newcomers are here today, please take care of them."
Ye Xiao looked at him and, without saying a word, led the men away and arranged their positions. They used basically the same abilities together, such as Ice Binding, Mud Swamp, Wood Entanglement, Domain Confinement, and other control abilities to immobilize the zombies first, followed by attack abilities such as Lightning Strike, Wind Blade, Gold Blade, Ice Spike, Water Arrow, and Earth Spike.
If you want to inflict maximum damage with limited abilities, the method and rhythm of attack are also very important.
On the fifth day of heavy rain, some more psychics arrived. On the sixth day, the team continued to grow. On the seventh day... a huge group of people directly occupied a large section of the base wall. The scene of a group of people throwing psychics below was very spectacular. They killed all the zombies under that section of the wall. For a while, there were not even enough zombies to replenish them, but they were busy collecting crystal cores.
Such a shed appeared inside the base wall. Every morning, people with special abilities came here one after another. After their strength was tested, those who met the requirements signed their names, received a certificate, and then went to kill zombies. Lunch, dinner and daily wages were all collected with this certificate.
The soldiers were heartbroken to see the food flowing out, but they had to admit that the pressure of the zombie siege was indeed reduced a lot.
The rain continued for ten days before it showed signs of abating, and Bai Cheng finally made a name for himself. He openly hung up a brokerage sign and took a certain percentage of the agency fee. He not only introduced people with special abilities to fight zombies on the city wall, but also took on other business.
For example, if there was serious water accumulation in the base and a canal needed to be dug to drain the water, he would communicate with the street manager and call on a group of young and middle-aged people and several earth- and water-based ability users to take on the job.
For example, when there were continuous heavy rains, every household was damp and clothes could not dry, so he got some fire-type mutants who were particularly frustrated on rainy days to do the drying work.
For example, if a part of the city wall is damaged after days of rain and needs urgent repair, he can also take on such a task.
He is even willing to take care of things like leaking houses that need repairing, messy homes that need cleaning, inconveniences in going out to buy things, and piles of garbage that no one is dealing with. His business items are numerous and detailed, even more detailed than official recruitment forms.
In order to do this well, he also called some of the managers in the team and hired them to work for him, and asked Jiang Xiaotian to set up an electronic system for him.
At first, Lin Tantan didn't understand why he had to do such laborious work, but after a few days, looking at the several large rosters of base personnel and seeing people coming up every day to apply for jobs or recruit workers, she began to understand.
These people are like flowing water, bringing all kinds of information and unknowingly accumulating deep and broad personal connections.
In the end, although they did not form their own forces, the things they knew, the forces they mobilized, and the influence they exerted were no less than those of forming their own forces.
After understanding it, she admired Bai Cheng even more. The title of the General Manager of the National People's Congress was not given for nothing. Ye Xiao knew the significance of this matter, so he cooperated so well, right?
While sighing, she also got some information from it: more and more people in the base were getting sick.
What started as a common cold and fever after being caught in the rain gradually developed into a severe flu, with multiple cases of infection occurring.
Lin Tantan felt a little complicated.
Therefore, she would not refuse anyone who came to seek medical treatment for this disease, and she also asked Bai Cheng to record her into his intermediary system to advertise and let more patients know that there is a healing psychic who can treat diseases here. Of course, it is only limited to this time's influenza patients.
As soon as the advertisement was released, many people came to her for medical treatment. Not wanting to bring germs into the villa, Lin Tantan rented a few houses outside the villa area. After asking Mingze and other healing wood-type mutants, they were all willing to come, so a small clinic was established.
"Ms. Lin, the conditions here are too simple. Go to our base hospital, the conditions there are excellent." The result of the small clinic becoming famous is that not only patients come here, but also all kinds of inexplicable characters. For example, the person in front of him is from the base medical department. He praises the base hospital as a paradise, as if Lin Tantan will reach the peak of her life as soon as she enters.
Lin Tantan was a little tired after a busy morning, so he leaned back in his chair and said, "The base hospital is so good, you must have recruited quite a few wood-type psychics there, right?"
"That's it!" the other party was very proud.
"Since there are so many people with special abilities, I won't go. If you are not sick, just leave." Lin Tantan directly called for people outside to clear the area.
The expression of the person opposite changed, but when he thought of the two backers behind Lin Tan and his own strength, he could only leave reluctantly.
Lin Tantan said to the people outside: "Don't let in people who are not sick." In order to maintain order in the small clinic, security guards, primary doctors, cashiers, etc. are indispensable. She didn't bother. Bai Cheng didn't run such a big agency for nothing. He brought the best and most reliable people to Lin Tantan, who were basically acquaintances. The security team leader was Jiang Zhongyi.
Jiang Zhongyi leaned forward and smiled: "Okay, got it."
Those who arrived late, hoping to use the excuse of seeing a doctor to get close to Lin Tantan and win him over, were left alone at the initial consultation counter. Ordinary doctors here would ask about medical history and take temperatures, and that was impossible to get away with if you weren't sick. If someone with a medical condition started talking to Lin Tantan about something irrelevant during treatment, they would likely be listed as someone they didn't want to be associated with. As a result, Lin Tantan had a lot less to worry about.
Xu Tianjin is one of those who came later.
He was not sick. He had finally found an opportunity to come with his sick companion just to see this person who had the same name as Doctor Lin.
Maybe it's just a homonym?
He never figured out which "tan" the other party was, and he didn't dare to ask around, so he could only try to recognize his face. However, after squatting for a long time, he didn't even see a shadow. The other party's clinic was at the innermost part, and it was heavily guarded outside. Even if he opened the door a crack, he couldn't see the person inside. He could only see the three big words "Dr. Lin" on the door.
These three words made him even more anxious.
After waiting for two hours, it was finally his companion's turn. He was lucky enough to get an appointment with Lin Tantan. After only five minutes, his companion's complexion had improved significantly. The dizziness, stuffy nose, and coughing up phlegm were gone. He said innocently, "I can just come again tomorrow. Wood-type mutants are really amazing. I didn't need any medicine or injections and it only took a few minutes to heal."
Xu Tianjin asked hurriedly, "What does she look like?"
"She's pretty, and as youthful as people say, with short hair..."
Xu Tianjin was speechless.
The two went to pay. After making an appointment, they paid the general fee first. Now they have to pay half of the remaining half, and they will pay the full amount after they recover.
This money can be in the form of supplies or crystal cores. Depending on the condition of the patient, it can be ten to dozens of kilograms of food, or ten to dozens of crystal cores.
No one can tell whether this is expensive or not. For a product that can cure the flu, the price is worth it, but for people with limited abilities, the price can be a real pain in the ass.
Xu Tianjin's companion was responsible for paying for supplies. He paid for flour, a total of twenty kilograms. He had already paid ten kilograms before, and this time he paid five kilograms.
He took out a bag of flour, checked the quality, weighed it, registered it in a booklet, and entered it into the computer. His companion also received the payment receipt. He looked pained and sighed: "Talent really is amazing. She earns so much from just one patient. How many patients can this Lin Dafang see in a day? I heard that many forces want to recruit her. They are asking this price. Can they afford it? If I could earn this much every day, I would be stupid to work for others."
Xu Tianjin was absent-minded and found an excuse not to go back with his companions. Instead, he turned back halfway and continued to wait in the clinic lobby.
He thought that he could always wait for people to come out.
Then this guy who frequently looked into Lin Tan's clinic caught Jiang Zhongyi's attention.
Who is this bullshit? This was Jiang Zhongyi's initial thought. However, when he saw her again the next day, and the third and fourth days, he felt something was wrong. What was she trying to do by staking out her position every day?
He didn't tell Lin Tan Tan about this. His sister was already working so hard, and he couldn't let her worry about these messy things. He told Bai Cheng directly.
When Bai Cheng learned about this, he thought about it and told Ye Xiao without hesitation.
He can protect his sweetheart himself.
These two people really haven't had much interaction these days. See, he is such a considerate and good comrade.
Ye Xiao has indeed been busy these days. The zombies on the other side of the city wall are very stressful, and Lin Tantan also has his own things to do. The two of them only have the chance to meet at night. However, Lin Tantan basically stays in her room after dinner and never comes out. Ye Xiao has fewer opportunities to talk to her than Jiang Xiaotian, the otaku, who has two patients.
That’s right, except for Cheng Qinan who has not yet awakened his superpowers, Xu Qin lived up to expectations and developed a high fever after being rained on for several days, and also showed signs of awakening.
Ye Xiao also wanted to get sick.
After receiving this news, he looked at the zombies outside the city wall. Today, there was only a little rain, the zombies were not so crazy, and their numbers were decreasing. He decided to leave work early today.
It was only three o'clock in the afternoon when he arrived at Lin Tan's place. The persistent squatter was still squatting there stubbornly, wearing a hat and a coat, trying to make people here less familiar with him by changing his vest.
However, in the bustling and not very large hall, Ye Xiao still saw this guy with a sneaky aura at a glance.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, and Xu Tianjin suddenly felt a chill on his back. He quickly turned around and saw a tall man in a black coat standing not far away. He looked at him indifferently, with a cold look in his eyes.
Xu Tianjin first felt danger intuitively and his scalp went numb, then he recognized this person, Ye Xiao!
He swallowed.
He himself was not a fan of Ye Xiao, but as a patient of Lin Tantan for more than half a year, he had a lot of contact with her and knew her better than most people. He knew that she was a die-hard Ye fan, so he also learned about some of Ye Xiao's deeds, and admired and regretted this man who died young.
But at this moment, when their eyes met, he felt an overwhelming sense of crisis as if he was being watched by a hunter. Only then did he fully realize that the so-called number one in the apocalypse was not just talk, it was really... extremely scary.
Compared with him, Zhou Yan, the ultimate winner, is simply ordinary as dust.
Even if we put aside Lin Tan's doubts, he suddenly began to doubt his own choice. Was it really right for him to cling to Zhou Yan?
Ye Xiao walked over and asked casually, "Are you here to see a doctor too?"
Xu Tianjin came back to his senses: "No, no, I'm here with a friend."
"Oh, really? I seem to see you these days. Your friend is very ill?" Ye Xiao said slowly, scanning him from inside to outside like a ray of light. Xu Tianjin's calves trembled. In the past few days, he was worried that Zhou Yan would find out something, so he sneaked in here. Today, he finally had time to wait until the clinic closed, thinking that he would be able to see people this way, but who knew such a vicious person would appear.
He was afraid that Ye Xiao would continue asking questions, and he was even more afraid that he would tie him up without saying a word and run away with an excuse.
Ye Xiao didn't chase after him. He was just an ordinary person, not even a superpower, so there was no need to worry.
The only thing that concerned him was that this person was related to Zhou Yan.
This is the person Lin Tantan wanted to beat up. Ye Xiao still hasn't figured out what the relationship between the other party and Lin Tantan is, but this doesn't prevent him from keeping an eye on Zhou Li. He knew the news that Zhou Li and Zhou Yan would meet up in the base on the first day. Moreover, Zhou Yan is quite good at business and is not an unknown person in the base. With the addition of Zhou Li and his forces, the two brothers are doing very well now.
The reason why I didn't tell Lin Tan that Zhou Yan was also in this base was mainly because I was temporarily unable to free myself. I was afraid that she would want to beat him up or something after hearing this name, and I couldn't accompany her. At the same time, it was also for the purpose of investigating this person more thoroughly.
It seems that we should not keep it secret any longer.
He sat down on a chair near Lin Tan's clinic. The feeling of waiting for someone to get off work was quite novel. He looked around and took out a wind crystal core to absorb it silently.
Because his aura was so strong, it was obvious that he was not an ordinary person, which created a vacuum around him. This was very special in the crowded hall. There might be people in the crowd who came with other intentions, and they all quietly retreated when they saw him.
Jiang Zhongyi spotted him and came over eagerly: "Captain Ye, you're here. I'll tell Sister Lin."
"Don't bother her. I'll just wait here." Ye Xiao asked, "Is there anyone causing trouble here?"
"No, Sister Lin said that anyone who causes trouble will be blacklisted. Who dares to cause trouble? It's just that there are too many people. The waiting list is more than ten days later. Sister Lin is receiving more and more calls every day."
Ye Xiao frowned slightly, and then he saw people coming in and out of Lin Tantan's room frequently, one every few minutes. The people who came in looked sick but full of anticipation, and the people who came out had smiles on their faces and looked relaxed.
However, it may take more than ten, twenty minutes, or even half an hour for someone to enter or leave the clinic of other people with special abilities.
Ye Xiao waited for more than two hours. During these two hours, Lin Tantan saw more than twenty patients.
In the end, all the other psychics had finished their work and left, and Lin Tantan was the last one to come out.
She was wearing a very fluffy dark pink down jacket, which seemed to be called a puffer jacket. Her upper body looked like a ball. She was holding a thermos cup in her arms and yawning. She raised her hand and rubbed her eyes with the back of her wrist. When she saw Ye Xiao standing up from the chair, she paused, with some surprise and joy in her eyes.
"Why are you here? Why are you back so early today?" Usually, he would come back after she had been gone for a long time, and it would be completely dark.
Ye Xiao felt a little relieved, thinking that as long as he was happy, he would be fine. He thought that the boy was addicted to hiding from him.
He said, "Come and see you, are you leaving?"
"Well, I have to go." Did the male god come here specially to wait for her? Lin Tantan was in a good mood, and the tiredness of sitting all day was swept away. "Wait for me to wash my hands."
She could release water, but she didn't want to expose her water ability, so she tried not to use it. At this time, she ran to the sink, and a girl who was filling a bucket with water and preparing to clean the clinic in a while poured the water on her hands.
Lin Tantan rubbed her own hand with one hand, and she didn't care if she couldn't rub the back of her hand.
Ye Xiao moved his feet, but finally stopped.
Because Lin Tantan said no but her body was obviously avoiding him, Ye Xiao didn't dare to be too close to her now, for fear that he would touch her nerves and make her shrink even more.
Lin Tantan washed her hands very carelessly, and then she patted her chubby down jacket without any care, leaving wet handprints on it. She looked at the clear water in the bucket and thought that some people could not even drink water, so it would be a sin to use such good water to wipe the table and mop the floor. However, since it was a clinic, it still had to be kept clean.
"You guys should get off work too." She said to Jiang Zhongyi and others. Usually, Jiang Zhongyi and others would escort Lin Tantan back to the villa by car. Lin Tantan thought it was too exaggerated. This place was very close to the villa, so what kind of accident could happen? But they insisted on not doing it, which made Lin Tantan's going in and out very grand. Today, he was finally able to get rid of them.
Jiang Zhongyi looked at Ye Xiao and found that he did not object. He smiled and said, "We'll leave after we finish cleaning and lock the door." There were still some supplies that had been collected in the afternoon and had not been taken away yet.
Lin Tan nodded and said to Ye Xiao, "Let's go then."
She wouldn't take a car back to the villa unless the rain got heavier. Otherwise, why waste gasoline? Today the rain was very light, just a drizzle. Lin Tantan was about to leave when Ye Xiao pointed and said, "Wear a hat."
"Oh." Lin Tantan obediently raised her hand to flip open the hood of her down jacket. The hood was too big, so she had to hold it under her chin with one hand, and she was holding the big thermos in her left arm. Ye Xiao couldn't bear to watch it, so he took the thermos from her.
Lin Tantan smiled and said, "Thank you."
Ye Xiao thought that he should prepare an umbrella. He looked at the short, fine hair that stuck out from the edge of her hat because of her rough movements. A bunch of hair stuck to her eyes. She reached out to push it away, but the hat fell off. She smoothed her hair, but when the hat covered her hair, it became messy again. The broken hair rubbed against her face and made her feel itchy. She had to press on the hat with her left arm, and use her right hand to push the hair behind her ears little by little.
Ye Xiao watched her fiddle with it for a long time, raising his hands several times.
"I'll help you." He finally said this with a straight face, but unfortunately Lin Tan quickly finished it: "It's okay, it's okay."
Ye Xiao felt a little regretful.
Then he saw her suddenly looking somewhere ahead, a look of surprise on her face. He followed her gaze and saw the habitual criminal standing behind a roadside pillar, staring at Lin Tan Tan with a look of shock, disbelief, trance, ecstasy, grief, confusion, hesitation, and trepidation...
Ye Xiao had very strong eyesight and could see the expression on the other person's face clearly. It was that kind of expression... the expression you get when someone you thought you would never see again suddenly appears in front of you after a long separation. It was also like a lost child who suddenly found his relatives and wanted to recognize them but didn't dare to.
This was not an expression that an ordinary person could show. Ye Xiao's heart trembled, and he immediately went to look at Lin Tantan, but he saw that Lin Tantan was surprised and confused, and looked at him as if he were a stranger.
Lin Tantan "forgot" what happened in the past. She only told Bai Cheng about this matter because she deliberately avoided Ye Xiao and told him about it. Bai Cheng felt that her wishes should be respected, so he did not tell Ye Xiao.
But Ye Xiao is not stupid. He can figure out some things without checking, especially after he focused his attention on Lin Tantan. It is impossible for him not to see clues from their conversations and daily observations.
So now another person who knows her but she doesn’t know appears?
Ye Xiao suddenly thought of Chen Zhihao, and the one in front of him was obviously more affectionate than Chen Zhihao.
His face was darkening.
Xu Tianjin looked at the face that was at least 70% similar to Lin Tan's. His previous suspicions and guesses were strongly confirmed. Even though he still had many doubts and uncertainties, tears still flowed down his face. With tearful eyes, he ran towards Lin Tan Tan: "Doctor Lin..."
Ye Xiao flashed and stood in front of Lin Tantan.
He was tall and blocked Lin Tantan completely, leaving only one side of his chubby coat visible.
Xu Tianjin slammed on the brakes and shuddered at Ye Xiao's cold and sharp aura, like a small animal being stared at by a wild beast, with all the hairs on his body standing up.
The author has something to say: Midnight snack: There are always troublemakers who want to steal my wife!
