Ye Xiao looked up and saw two people standing together talking in the busy background. His eyes narrowed slightly and he walked over.
"Let's talk." Ye Xiao called.
Lin Tantan turned around: "Ye Xiao, why are you here again?"
Why again
Ye Xiao couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. If her tone wasn't cheerful, one would suspect that she was disgusted with his presence "again".
"I'm going to visit Major General Xing, and I'm stopping by here to take a look."
Lin Tan Tan knew what he was going to talk about with Major General Xing, and nodded: "Oh, then go ahead."
Ye Xiao: “…”
Zhou Li smiled and said to Ye Xiao: "Captain Ye, I want to ask Miss Lin about supernatural powers."
Ye Xiao nodded slightly, maintaining a good demeanor: "What are you talking about? Maybe I can help Mr. Zhou."
Before Zhou Li could speak, Lin Tan Tan answered, "He wants to know how to use his special powers on bullets."
Ye Xiao said: "This is actually not difficult, but don't try it on a gun at first, you can use a knife or other things, try to direct the supernatural power to those things. It will be a little difficult at the beginning, just practice more and it will be fine." Ye Xiao looked very experienced, what else could Zhou Li say but thank you.
After expressing his gratitude, he left tactfully. Although he wanted to talk to Lin, he did not dare to show too much and offend Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao looked at his back for two seconds, then said to Lin Tantan, "Why don't you go eat? Aren't you hungry?"
"I'm hungry." Lin Tan Tan followed him obediently and suddenly asked, "Ye Xiao, do you dislike my contact with Zhou Li?"
Ye Xiao was stunned: "Why do you say that?"
"You didn't seem very happy just now, and you chased Zhou Li away as soon as you came over." Lin Tan Tan is not a fool, how could he not see that there was some undercurrent between the two of them just now.
Lin Tan Tan said, "He probably wants to get closer to me. I'm actually quite annoyed with him, but his attitude is quite nice. I can't just kick him out, right? But don't worry, no matter how much he benefits me or how attentive he is, I won't be moved by him."
Ye Xiao felt warmed by what he heard and couldn't help asking, "Why? He looks pretty good too."
"No matter how good he is, can he be better than you?" Lin Tan Tan said as a matter of course, "You and Bai Cheng are miles ahead of him."
"..." Ye Xiao was caught off guard by a wave of flattery. His heart was blossoming. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but slightly curl up, but he stopped halfway. No, what does this have to do with Bai Cheng
At this time, Lin Tan Tan continued to say, "Look, he leads hundreds of people, and everyone has to rely on their own strength to make a living. Those without strength can only rely on others. This is understandable, but it is too lacking in love for their compatriots. The women, old and young in their team have to live under the eyes of others. They are trembling with fear every day, afraid of being abandoned. The atmosphere is particularly bad."
"Unlike you and Bai Cheng, as long as they don't intentionally cause trouble or cause damage, you will take care of the food and personal safety of even the weakest people. Isn't that humane? And you are much stronger than him. I must have lost my mind to go to him."
Seeing Ye Xiao's expression was a little stiff, Lin Tantan thought he didn't believe it and continued to express his loyalty: "This is like a big company with humane benefits and good bosses, and a small company that only cares about profits and doesn't have many guarantees. I am already doing well in the big company and will never change jobs. Don't worry."
As he said this, he patted him on the shoulder, his eyes shining, and his eyes were just short of conveying an employee declaration like "I will never betray the company, boss, don't worry."
Ye Xiao: “…”
Ye Xiao looked at her strangely, sighed for a while, and rubbed her head: "Let's go eat."
Lin Tan was stunned. Why did she suddenly sigh? Did she say something wrong
She followed him, somewhat confused.
…
Ye Xiao went to Xing Guoliang to persuade him about the illegal and disciplinary issues of some survivors, hoping that he could take it seriously.
Xing Guoliang agreed repeatedly and conducted self-examination, saying that it was really wrong for him not to notice such a thing.
After Ye Xiao left, Xing Guoliang looked unhappy. Zhu Xin approached him at the right time and said, "This Ye Xiao is too nosy. Didn't Bai Cheng say that those ten teams can be merged with the people here at any time? Brother Xing, you can just merge the two sides. Don't they like to manage people so much? Let them manage."
Xing Guoliang snorted coldly: "And they have the final say in everything, and 20,000 soldiers serve as their bodyguards for free?"
Zhu Xin choked: "Then it must be you, Brother Xing, who has the final say. Just let them work for us." The survivors were in chaos all day long, and Zhu Xin was quite annoyed. He wished that someone would come right away to control those people and make them behave themselves.
Xing Guoliang thought to himself that it was still unclear who would work for whom by then.
He could see clearly that Ye Xiao was now showing him considerable respect, giving him face, but when had Ye Xiao ever compromised in the end during any discussion
It was he who proposed that the troops be divided into fifty groups and march into Yang City. It was also he who suggested that the convoy lead the way. It was he who decided where to camp overnight and which road to take every day. It was he who drove away the flock of birds at noon. Now he has objections to the discipline here.
This person is too opinionated. Compared with those who are aggressive, he seems to be easy to talk to, but he is actually quite strong. Xing Guoliang knows that he is not as good as him. He doesn't want to compete with Ye Xiao and affect the progress of the team, nor does he want to obey Ye Xiao's arrangements like a subordinate. After all, he is now a major general, and he is only a colonel.
Previously he thought it was a good thing for Ye Xiao to go to Ning City Base, but now he is not sure.
But no matter what Xing Guoliang thought in his heart, he did enforce discipline in the end. That night he arrested several typical cases of bullying the weak and women and executed them directly. As expected, the morale of the entire team was tightened.
As for the young psychic who wanted to join the team, Ye Xiao finally did not agree to his request.
That would be a huge slap in the face to Xing Guoliang, so he still has to consider Xing Guoliang's feelings.
…
The camp was very quiet at night, except for the patrollers, everyone else took the time to rest. Because most vehicles were crowded with people when in motion, there was not much space for people to sleep, so you could see many large and small tents set up next to the large vehicles.
Lin Tantan also has his own tent, a small dark blue one, which he places on the pickup truck during the day. At night, he finds a flat piece of ground, sets it up, puts a few wooden boards inside, and covers it with two layers of quilts, making it a small bed.
She was sleeping soundly that night when she suddenly heard a squeaking sound. She woke up abruptly, unzipped the tent, and sure enough, there was a small hamster the size of a fist outside.
Most other mutant mice would grow bigger, but this little hamster did not change. Instead, it became more delicate.
Lin Tan Tan whispered to it: "What's wrong?"
"Squeak, squeak, squeak." The little hamster just kept chirping. Lin Tantan had no idea what it was chirping about, so he had to put on his clothes and shoes and go out to take a look himself.
As soon as she came out, the little hamster turned and ran, as if to lead the way.
Lin Tantan hurriedly followed. Except for a fire pit in each place, it was almost dark everywhere. The little hamster was so small that Lin Tantan had to lower his head to carefully distinguish where it was running.
Ye Xiao saw a familiar shadow passing by in the distance. He frowned slightly. Where was she going so late
After a little thought, Ye Xiao followed.
Lin Tantan suddenly felt someone approaching, and turned around abruptly, ready to attack, but his hands were ready to grab him: "It's me, Tantan, why did you come out?"
"Ye Xiao, what's wrong with you? I...it called me out."
Lin Tan pointed at the little hamster that had stopped on the ground. Ye Xiao looked carefully at what it was and said, "Mutated rat?"
"Well, they seem to have discovered something."
Ye Xiao frowned slightly: "We set up a lot of surveillance cameras around, but we didn't find anything, and the zombie detector didn't sound an alarm."
"Squeak." The mutant hamster called again, even more urgently.
"I have to go take a look." Lin Tantan said, and Ye Xiao said, "I'll go with you."
"Okay." Lin Tan Tan did not waste any time and let the little hamster continue to lead the way.
The two men and the rat walked out of the camp directly, and walked a few hundred meters away. They heard a lot of squeaking sounds, all made by the rats. The two men couldn't get through quickly, so Ye Xiao turned on the flashlight function on his watch and saw several rats jumping up and down, calling out to the rats in the bushes.
A few mice in the grass were struggling desperately, but seemed to be entangled in the grass.
Ye Xiao looked around vigilantly, and after making sure there was no danger, he went to rescue the mice.
Lin Tantan suddenly grabbed him and said, "Don't get close yet, look!"
Ye Xiao looked carefully, the grass... seemed to be alive, with clumps of green-brown leaves entangled several mutant rats, and were constantly tightening. When the mutant rat tried to run out, the grass pulled it back.
Ye Xiao's expression changed: "This grass..."
Lin Tantan sent out several golden blades to cut the grass that bound the mutant rats, and then sent out several wooden straps to tie up the mutant rats and pull them back.
At the same time, the pile of grass suddenly began to tremble wildly, and the thin grass leaves were entangled into two bundles like braids, and suddenly stretched out, attacking Lin Tan's face.
"Be careful!" Ye Xiao sent out a wind blade in time, cutting the two bundles of grass into pieces, and at the same time pulled Lin Tan to retreat quickly.
Lin Tantan's attack was even more ruthless. A flash of golden light slashed at the roots of the grass. A whole clump of grass flew up, fell to the ground, twitched twice, and then became completely motionless. In the original place, several thick roots were exposed, still twisting and struggling like tentacles.
Lin Tantan got goosebumps after seeing this. Is this the root system of grass?!
The tree roots are pretty good, right? They are so thick!
Ye Xiao's face was as dark as water: "Plants have also mutated."
Lin Tantan's heart sank, because she remembered that the plant mutation began in February, and today was only late January.
Is it that history is wrong, or is it that mutant plants did appear in late January in history, but no one discovered it
What she didn't know was that in the Ning City base, a man suddenly woke up from a dream. He looked at his body in surprise and horror: "What's going on? Wasn't I at the memorial service? The end of the world, it's the end of the world now? I actually came to three hundred years ago! Oh my God, people are going to die here! Oh, right, who is the thickest thigh in the end of the world? Ye Xiao? No, he will die in the end. Everyone who followed him has been cleared out. Zhou Yan is the final winner!"
The author has something to say: Ye Xiao: I want to date you, but you treat me like your boss_(:3∠)_
