Traveling To The Last Days To Protect You

Chapter 115

Lin Tantan's right hand was like a machine gun that could release flames. A burst of flame came out one after another, and the sky was burned red. Swarms of mutant mosquitoes fell down with crackling sounds.

Ye Xiao used his supernatural power to cover the two of them, while also releasing wind blades and wind nets to strangle the mosquitoes. As the two walked, the mosquitoes in the sky fell, and later the mosquitoes dared not approach them anymore.

They walked down the hillside and into the courtyard. Wherever they passed, mosquitoes scattered in panic, but they were eventually swept away by the wind and fire. Soon, the mosquitoes in the courtyard were either fleeing or dying, and there were only a few left. The dense black tide on the wall was quickly fading away.

The earth-type psychics who were sealing the wall outside and the other psychics who were escorting them discovered the two and shouted excitedly. Ye Xiao asked them to continue doing their own things and left the compound after talking with Lin. They did not go to District 3 because they knew that the protection measures there must be very good. They went straight to the street and headed for the most backward shantytown nearby.

The situation here was indeed quite tragic. The tents made of tattered or even just rags and sticks could hardly resist the mutated mosquitoes. People tried their best to hide in the shelter and wrapped themselves into balls, but screams continued to be heard. Once a breakthrough was found, a swarm of mosquitoes would fly over immediately.

When the two men arrived, they happened to encounter a man wrapped in various cloths being pushed into a swarm of mosquitoes. He held his head and ran away frantically, but was tripped by the rags dragging by his feet and fell down. He was quickly overwhelmed by the swarm of mosquitoes and screamed miserably.

Ye Xiao immediately created a hurricane, instantly dispersing the swarm of mosquitoes on the man's body. Lin Tan Tan raised his hand in tacit understanding and released flames. The thick tongues of fire split into five or six branches in the air, circling in different directions, wrapping up all the fleeing swarms of mosquitoes and burning them.

Along with the sound of insect bodies burning and exploding, a strange smell of burning spread, and fire mosquitoes fell one by one. Lin Tantan also smelled blood. It was obvious that many of the mosquitoes here had sucked blood.

The man who had fallen to the ground and thought he was going to die raised his head in shock, looking at the two people who were showing off their magical powers. He was stunned for a moment until the man said in a deep voice: "Find a place to hide."

He nodded blankly. At this moment, a mud house suddenly appeared on the open space on the roadside, from low to high. There was only a door that could only accommodate one person. The woman among the two people spoke clearly: "Let's hide here for the time being. Just block the door."

Her voice was not loud, but strangely, amid the buzzing and burning sounds of mosquitoes and the screams for help from far and near, the man heard it clearly, and he subconsciously did as she said. There were also people nearby who had nowhere to hide and heard it, and they rushed into the mud house with cloth bags and quilts on their heads as if they had grabbed a life-saving straw.

During this process, Ye Xiao and Lin Tan Tan did not stop, they moved forward and killed mosquitoes. After walking a certain distance, they found that the houses and tents were destroyed by the mosquitoes and people had nowhere to hide, so Lin Tan Tan went back and built a mud house for people to hide in.

Each mud house is not big, only about ten square meters, but if they are crowded together, dozens of people can hide in it. In order to prevent suffocation, Lin Tantan also left ventilation holes, so it is not a problem to hide for a while.

They passed through a shantytown so quickly, killing countless mosquitoes and leaving behind many mud houses, and then went to the next shantytown without stopping.

Probably alarmed by the noise of wind and fire, some people gradually came out to kill mosquitoes. Although their power was much weaker than theirs, there were more and more resistance like this, and some people recognized the two men.

But a moment later, Lu Jianping contacted Ye Xiao, and Ye Xiao said calmly: "It's just my personal behavior, Chief Lu doesn't need to care."

Logically speaking, except for the three areas of Zhengyang Brigade, other places are Lu Jianping's territory. Ye Xiao can't do anything. Even if he wants to do something, he should inform Lu Jianping first. So Ye Xiao didn't pull out the people from Zhengyang Brigade to do anything, but just two of them came out alone. A private act could also make Lu Jianping look better.

Otherwise, it was someone else's territory, and the people on it, and he himself hadn't taken any protective measures, but Ye Xiao was showing off his prowess here, as if he was going to someone else's territory to win fans, and Ye Xiao was quite careful about this. He also explained that it was because Lin Tantan couldn't bear it, so he accompanied her out to kill mosquitoes.

Lu Jianping sighed, said some words of thanks, thought about it after hanging up the phone, and sent several teams to some shanty towns to kill mosquitoes.

One of his lieutenants frowned upon hearing this order: "Brothers really don't have time to spare."

In such a large base, their military strength is only one tenth of the total population, and the places they can take care of are really limited, so how can they take care of those shanty towns on the edge? Things have priorities, and people have rich and poor, noble and humble. Generally speaking, when danger occurs, they can't take care of everyone and save them, so naturally they can only give priority to saving people with higher value.

Obviously, those in shanty towns are at the bottom of the list and are most likely to be abandoned.

Lu Jianping said: "We should at least send some people. Ye Xiao has already expressed his opinion. It would be inappropriate for us to do nothing."

The adjutant was still dissatisfied, and he blamed Ye Xiao for meddling in other people's business. It was useless to save those scumbags in the shantytowns. Who could blame them for their own failure? It was not worth wasting manpower and energy on them. If he really wanted to be a saint, he could just pull out the entire Zhengyang Brigade to kill mosquitoes, but there was no way, right

Although he complained in his heart, the adjutant still did as he was told.

Lin Tantan naturally didn't know all this. She was a little tired of setting fires, so she released a water ball, which suddenly turned into a misty fog. Under her control, the fog spread and surrounded a swarm of mosquitoes. Then, the fog suddenly condensed into a water film, covering the mosquitoes like a huge plastic belt and constantly tightening. Finally, it was thrown at Lin Tantan's feet.

She then put out a huge earth trough, and put a tightly fitting earth cake on it, pressing it inside.

But this mosquito was really tough. Even the dirt cake couldn't flatten it. It was still buzzing around underneath trying to escape.

Lin Tan waved to the few people who were watching the fight and asked, "Can you crush the mosquitoes down there?"

"Okay, okay!" The people who didn't want to hide at this time and were watching the fight on the side were not completely ordinary people. They either had special abilities or were good in skills. In short, they were all brave. They took on the task immediately and then stood on the earth cake, jumping and hopping to crush the mosquitoes below.

All you could hear was the weird sound of insects being crushed and liquid splashing out. The earth cake sank, and a black and red liquid mixed with red blood slowly overflowed from the edge of the earth trough. The fishy smell of mosquitoes being crushed also spread.

The corner of Ye Xiao's eye twitched, and he couldn't help but think of the scene when the Indians were building a house, a group of people stepped on the horizontal planks of the piles, singing a very rhythmic tune while pushing down, and forcibly pushing the piles down.

Lin Tan Tan thought this was a good idea. When setting fire, one had to be careful not to burn down houses or something. But in this way, one only had to catch the mosquitoes and hand them over to others to crush them.

It saves her a lot of energy and she doesn't have to smell the unpleasant smell of burnt mosquitoes. It's so environmentally friendly.

So she began her mission of catching mosquitoes. She spread mist, which turned into a water film, and then scooped the mosquitoes back like catching fish. She then set up an earth trough, threw the mosquitoes in, covered them with an earth cake, and left them to others to deal with.

As for the other people... There isn't much difference between the shanty dwellers, except that there are just a lot of people there, and they hate mosquitoes. Lin Tantan only needs to shout and a group of people will rush out to crush the mosquitoes.

Of course, this is also because people feel it is safe to stay around them. After the two people walked past, these people still hid obediently.

But there were also some who were brave or capable and wanted to follow the two of them to kill mosquitoes together. Lin Tan Tan didn't care about this and just focused on his own output. Ye Xiao looked at these people and didn't say anything. He acquiesced to their following, but he went from half output to no output at all. He just served as a shield and was always careful to prevent these people from being bitten by mosquitoes.

So the mosquito eradication team inexplicably became larger and larger.

Two hours later, they passed the seventh shantytown. The sky in the east began to brighten. Lin Tantan found that there were fewer and fewer mosquitoes, until finally there were so few that she couldn't catch a few even with a net. She said, "It's getting light, and the mosquitoes are retreating."

Ye Xiao looked at her and said nothing. Someone said, "Doctor Lin, they probably didn't retreat, but were all beaten to death."

Lin Tantan turned around subconsciously and was shocked. Why were there so many people behind her? There must be hundreds of them, and they were all looking at her with shining eyes.

Ye Xiao said: "These remaining mosquitoes are not very harmful. Let's disperse. We have to go back as well."

These people were somewhat reluctant to leave, but they still made way for them to go back. Those who were hiding in the house also came out one after another, saying words of thanks and watching the two people leave.

Lin Tantan felt a little embarrassed to be stared at and thanked by so many people, but as a doctor she was used to being thanked, so after a moment of surprise she finally let it go and waved to these people with a smile.

Some people even tried to put gifts in her hands, but she refused them all.

In order to avoid meeting more people, after leaving the shantytown, she and Ye Xiao chose to walk on the normal streets outside the shantytown. There were more mosquitoes here than in the shantytown, but they were limited. Lin Tan Tan did not kill them again. Occasionally, a few fearless ones were killed by Ye Xiao before they got close.

Lin Tantan held the back of his neck and turned his head. Ye Xiao asked, "Does your neck hurt?"

"You've been tilting your head back, and it feels a little sore." Ye Xiao reached out and started massaging her. His warm big hands applied moderate strength, which was very comfortable. Lin Tan Tan, who was about to use her supernatural powers to relieve her fatigue, decisively gave up using her supernatural powers and just enjoyed his service with a hum.

At this time, people were still hiding in their homes. It was dark everywhere. There were few people on the street. Only the footsteps of two people could be heard on the street. As Lin Tantan walked, he suddenly said, "Do we feel like we are back from an all-night date?"

Ye Xiao thought to himself, who's date is to go and kill mosquitoes

The little girl in his family always turns things that seem hard and difficult to others into something easy and enjoyable.

Lin Tan Tan asked again: "What is the name of walking on the street together? I remember there is a noun."

Ye Xiao thought about it, and a word popped up in his mind. He said uncertainly: "Walking on the road?"

"Yes, yes, that's the word." Lin Tan Tan grabbed his hand, intertwined their fingers, and swung them back and forth exaggeratedly, "It's called walking on the road." She looked at the road under her feet and jumped up and down, "I saw videos of people walking on the road with their girlfriends and boyfriends before, so I wanted to try it myself. It feels really good."

Ye Xiao looked at her with indulgence.

The two went to the third area first to take a look. The mosquitoes here were gone, and people were coming out one after another. The earth walls outside some buildings were slowly peeling off and turning into sand, and the people inside were released.

During this mosquito invasion, the response here was timely and there were no casualties.

Afterwards, the two returned to the compound. There were more burnt bodies of mosquitoes here than before. The logistics team responsible for cleaning up began to clean up. Some people were talking about the mosquitoes. When they saw the two people coming back, they all greeted them. Someone said, "Captain, we saw that the fire kept getting colder, so we knew it was you. Why didn't it light up later?"

Some people even asked whether their combat team should be dispatched if something like this happens again, saying it would be boring to just sit around like this.

Ye Xiao is approachable and does not have the cold and solemn temperament of a leader in non-combat situations. These people are not afraid of him normally, but are more reluctant to act rashly in front of Lin Tan Tan.

The mosquito swarm attack at the Ning City base did not cause too many casualties, but the mosquito swarms appeared in more places than just the Ning City base.

It is July now, the hottest time of the year. In previous years, mosquitoes appeared in large numbers at this time. The mutated mosquitoes have apparently followed the habits of their predecessors and reproduced in large numbers after the weather got hot, especially in places with poor sanitary conditions, where mosquito swarms appeared in large numbers.

Either they had not thoroughly studied the characteristics of the mutant mosquitoes, or they were not prepared. In short, some bases and human settlements were completely overwhelmed by the mosquitoes at night, and suffered heavy losses. Often, countless lives disappeared in one night, leaving behind large bags of mummified corpses.

The capital base was also severely affected. The bosses had to hold meeting after meeting, all of which focused on how to prevent and kill mosquitoes. After receiving reports and requests for help from the bases below and learning that swarms of mosquitoes were everywhere across the country, the bosses felt very heavy-hearted.

The threat of zombies has never stopped, mutated animals and plants are also eyeing humans, food, water resources, energy crisis, etc., all kinds of threats are everywhere and becoming more and more severe. Now there is a mutated mosquito, and it seems that the mosquitoes will not disappear until the summer is over, which is a headache for them.

Then, among the many reports, they found that the losses at the Ning City base were very small. After careful questioning, they found out that it was because two talented people came out and killed and scared away the mosquitoes.

In other places, humans were no match for the mosquitoes and were sucked blood badly. Many people died, but the mosquitoes got nutrients and reproduced more. But in the Ning City base, the mosquitoes suffered heavy losses, but humans suffered almost no losses. From the first day, the mosquitoes did not gain any advantage, and as the situation changed, they were becoming less and less of a match for humans.

Sure enough, swarms of mosquitoes would still appear at night for the next few days, but as soon as they appeared, Lin Tan Tan would drag Ye Xiao to kill the mosquitoes. More and more people in the entire base took the initiative to participate in mosquito eradication, and their enthusiasm for mosquito eradication was high. After such a period of time, the mosquito swarms completely gave up this big piece of fat meat, and the few remaining populations moved away from the vicinity of the Ning City base.

So just as we entered mid-July, mosquito infestations in other places were becoming increasingly serious, but the Ning City base was very peaceful.

It's really enviable.

After asking around, the bigwigs in the capital learned that one of the two great men who led the mosquito eradication was Ye Xiao, and the other was also Ye Xiao's man. One of the bigwigs who was not in the right state sighed and said, "This guy is not bad. I remember he is one of our soldiers. Why didn't he transfer him back to the capital?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the other people present at the meeting became a little strange.

Commander Fan of the First Seat said calmly: "Ye Xiao has retired."

"What? Retired!" The person who asked the question was surprised and regretful, "How can such a talent be allowed to retire." The person who asked the question obviously did not pay much attention to some news. In their military system, the news of the retirement of Ye Xiao and seven others had been hanging around for many days, and many people knew about it.

Ye Xiao's name is still very famous. Many people know him. The older generation knows him because of his background, and the younger generation knows him because of his extremely fast promotion speed. Although it is strange why he retired at this time, people who know some inside information speculated whether it was because of the intensified conflict between him and the military, but seeing that they all retired after being promoted, it can be regarded as a glorious retirement, so this speculation became smaller.

As soon as he heard Ye Xiao's name, Min Yande's face darkened.

He has not had a good time lately. Chen Xing has been inexplicably critical of him, making all kinds of sarcastic remarks and not cooperating when he should. Whenever there is a decision within their ranks, Chen Xing disagrees with anything he agrees with and goes against him everywhere. Min Yande is fed up with it, and the morale within their camp is also unsettled.

He didn't think it had anything to do with Cai Chengliang. He just thought that Chen Xing was dazzled by a magical plane.

Ultimately, it was Ye Xiao's fault!

At this time, the guy who asked the question sighed and said that although he had retired, since the current situation of the Ning City base was related to Ye Xiao, it would be better for him to share some experience with other base organizations. Everyone agreed, and Min Yande's face became even darker.

After the meeting, he called his subordinates to learn about the Ning City base’s fight against the mosquito swarm. The details were unclear, but it was certain that Ye Xiao was the leader.

Lu Jianping didn't do anything, but this person who was living on someone else's land was very active. Who would believe him if he said he had no plans

Does Lu Jianping, this idiot, know what it means to raise a tiger to bring disaster upon oneself

Min Yande smiled coldly and whispered something to his subordinates. After they left, he sat leisurely on the leather armchair. Suddenly, someone reported that Chen Xianyi was coming, and he felt a headache.

Previously, he and Chen Xianyi were very close, because everyone could see that Chen Xianyi was the successor trained by Chen Xing. But now the situation is complicated. Chen Xing seems to value Cai Chengliang more and has the intention to suppress Chen Xianyi. Chen Xianyi is living an even worse life than him.

And Cai Chengliang seemed to be hostile to Min Yande.

He must have suffered at Ye Xiao's hands and is holding a grudge against me!

So it’s still Ye Xiao’s fault!

Min Yande hesitated for a moment, a sinister look flashed in his eyes. If Chen Xianyi could completely take over Chen Xing's position, it would be a hundred benefits to him without any harm, so he said: "Let him in!"

At the Ning City base, Ye Xiao received the latest intelligence and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Min Yande and Chen Xianyi are going to take action against Chen Xing."

Bai Cheng laughed and said, "You really can't keep your cool."

It had only been a short time since Cai Chengliang returned, and it had only been a short time since Chen Xing targeted these two people, but they could no longer tolerate it.

However, if they are going to take action against Chen Xing, they will definitely be very busy. But even in such a busy schedule, Min Yande still wants to do some small actions here, which shows that he is really persistent.

"How do we deal with the rumors?" Bai Cheng asked.

"Ask everyone to keep a low profile recently. I'll talk to Lu Jianping again." Ye Xiao said calmly.

"This is the only way." Bai Cheng said, "The crops in the new area are almost ripe, let's transfer some to Lu Jianping."

Ye Xiao thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay."

On that day, a rumor spread from the Ning City base that Ye Xiao stepped forward when facing the swarm of mosquitoes and saved countless people. In comparison, Lu Jianping's team only protected a small number of powerful people. Ye Xiao was more qualified to lead the entire base than Lu Jianping.

At the same time, someone brought up the high efficiency of the Zhengyang Brigade in dealing with the zombie tide and the extremely low casualty rate, as well as the fact that in less than half a year, the three districts of the Zhengyang Brigade were built in good shape, while Lv Jianping's team has not made many positive changes to the base. Also, Lin Tantan of the Zhengyang Brigade has been providing free treatment to the people in the shantytowns since the beginning, while Lv Jianping's team is indifferent to their lives.

To sum up, Ye Xiao is better than Lu Jianping, Zhengyang Brigade is better than Lu Jianping's team, and they are more humane and more righteous.

For a while, the Zhengyang Brigade was praised to the sky, and the names of Ye Xiao and Lin Tan were the most mentioned.

Lin Tantan didn't think much of it when he first heard it, he just thought it was too much praise, but the more he listened, the more he felt it was not right, as if someone was deliberately praising the Zhengyang Brigade.

This is not a good sign. After all, Lu Jianping is still the one in charge of the Ning City base.

Lin Tan Tan frowned and asked Ye Xiao that night if someone was fanning the flames behind the scenes.

Ye Xiao was a little surprised: "Can you tell?"

Lin Tan rolled his eyes at him and said, "I'm not a fool. This is obviously not normal."

Ye Xiao said: "It's okay, let them talk. It won't have any effect as long as the parties involved don't pay attention."

Lin Tantan was still worried: "Can Lu Jianping be so open-minded?" These remarks were like a slap in Lu Jianping's face. Anyone would feel uncomfortable, right

"So we have to keep a low profile recently." Ye Xiao talked about giving Lu Jianping a batch of grain. Although the quantity was not large, fresh grain was still very rare and precious. This was a bribe and also a flattery. If Lu Jianping still couldn't let it go, there would be nothing he could do.

Facts have proved that bribery is still very useful. Lu Jianping was indeed uncomfortable with the rumors outside, but he was able to restrain himself. His nephew Ruther also advised him to relax. Anyway, the Zhengyang Brigade would leave sooner or later, so there was no need to be unhappy, and they were still cooperating in the production of the magic machine.

However, the people under Lu Jianping were very angry and wanted to find trouble with the Zhengyang Brigade.

When they learned that the Zhengyang Brigade was going to give them a batch of food, they felt much more at ease.

They also glanced at the plantation in the new area of Zhengyang Brigade from the city wall. It was a large and lush area with all kinds of corn, soybeans, potatoes and sweet potatoes. Because the planting-type psychics spared no effort, and there was adequate irrigation and enough fertilizer, the crops grew fast and well.

They also grow crops here, but their performance is nowhere near as good as others and the yield is very limited.

In this world, a bite to eat is very important, and eating well is even more difficult, so this bribery really touches people's hearts.

Those who thought they could get a share of this grain based on their status were appeased and were not so angry anymore. They were just waiting for the day when they would get the grain. They were still thinking in their hearts whether corn was more delicious or sweet potatoes were more filling. It would be best if they could get some of those juicy vegetables as well.

And as long as these people don't cause trouble, the rumors won't matter.

However, Ye Xiao did not expect that Min Yande was about to make a big move, and he never forgot about this side, and was determined to make him unhappy. Soon, the second wave of rumors spread in the base, saying that Lin Tantan was a five-element superpower, who could fight and heal, and was proficient in everything. It was because of her that the Zhengyang Brigade could develop so well. Getting her was half the success, and she was indispensable if they wanted to dominate.
