Abnormal survival in the end times

Chapter 236 Shake people
Liu Ying disliked He Ningzhu very much, for no other reason than that she just couldn't stand the sight of her.

Also, her brother has been pursuing her for quite a while. You either have to agree or refuse, but you neither agree nor refuse. What's the point of keeping him hanging like this?

Does she think her brother is a donkey, with a carrot dangling in front of him?

Heh~~
This woman's thoughts are actually quite easy to understand. She simply believes that what she can't have is the best, and that she can get what she wants.

Like today, her brother finally got a day off, but instead of resting at home in the sweltering heat, he had to accompany her to Pingcheng to search for supplies.

He's both a bodyguard and a porter; he's really playing his cards right.

But there was nothing she could do; her silly brother was willing. Not only was he willing, but when he left, he happily said that he didn't want them to follow because he wanted to spend some time alone with He Ningzhu.

What a joke! You'd be selling yourself out and still have to pay the customer for the money.

Liu Ying had reminded her brother, but what did he say?

Oh, he said she didn't understand; this is called romance between couples.

You idiot, calling yourselves lovers? Have you even officially started dating yet?
From the moment Liu Xu left home this morning, she had been silently cursing her idiot brother, and waiting to see how exhausted he would be when he came back this afternoon.

Who would have thought that it wasn't even afternoon yet? Had I only been gone for an hour? How come I'm back already?

Liu Ying's eyes darted around, as if she had thought of something. With a "hey," she asked Liu Xu, who had parked his car and was about to flush his face, "Is the Pingjiang Bridge closed today?"

Without waiting for Liu Xu's reply, she continued, "Oh dear, what bad luck! We didn't get to have our time together. Aren't you disappointed?"

The final, drawn-out "ah" sound is so suggestive that it's hard not to hear the schadenfreude in it.

Liu Xu ignored her completely and splashed cold water on his face.

The restlessness I felt on the way back was instantly washed away by the cool well water, and I felt much more refreshed.

Then he heard his dear sister's nagging again, "Oh dear, you haven't been sold out, why are some people still unhappy? Why are you so eager? Did she even let you touch her hand? You get nothing in return, yet you keep going so hard."

"Liu Ying! Do you want a beating?"

Unable to bear it any longer, Liu Xu picked up the bucket at his feet and threw it up to the second floor.

So far, although he doesn't seem to have any specific special abilities, he seems to be somewhat proficient in all aspects.

For example, if you have great strength, like when you throw a bucket of water upwards, you can control the water to stay in the bucket and prevent it from spilling out halfway.

only--
With a loud bang, the water he had been controlling to prevent spilling halfway up was knocked over by two thick vines halfway up the bucket. With a splash, all the water in the bucket spilled onto Liu Xu's feet, soaking his brand-new sneakers that he had just worn that day.

Liu Xu glanced down at his new shoes, then looked up and roared through gritted teeth, "You brat, get down here and clean my shoes!"

Liu Ying wasn't afraid of him at all. She loosely held two vines in her hands, wrapped them around the bucket, and poured the water over her brother's head. The last few drops of water dripped onto Liu Xu's forehead.

She kept talking, "Anyway, you've been brainwashed lately, so it's no big deal if I pour some more water on you. Don't move, don't let this water run down your forehead. You can't let it run down, how can you date if your brain isn't full of water? Oh, right, you haven't dated yet, she hasn't said yes."

Water droplets streamed down his forehead and face. Liu Xu raised his hand to wipe his face and coldly snorted, "Stop being sarcastic. I was just being sarcastic. Do you really have to keep nagging like this? If you're done nagging, I won't see He Ningzhu again, okay?"

Ok?
Liu Ying paused in her actions, and asked curiously, "What exactly triggered you today? How come you gave up on that woman after just one trip to Pingcheng? Tell me, and I'll analyze it for you."

"You can't possibly analyze anything worthwhile!"

After saying that, Liu Xu turned and went into the house, and casually grabbed Mao Weihao, who was eavesdropping behind the door of the main room, and threw him into the yard.

On the other side, Jiang Minglang stood at the highest point of the Pingjiang Bridge, looking at Baihu across the way, who was calmly staring at him, and raised his eyebrows slightly.

What's wrong with this guy today?
Although the tiger's emotions were usually calm, Jiang Minglang sensed something different in its eyes.

Also, it doesn't usually stand on the mountaintop looking this way when there's nothing going on.

So something must have happened today to make this tiger king come out. Not only has it been keeping a close watch on this area, but there are also wolves stirring at the foot of the mountain where it is.

Jiang Minglang believed that if it weren't for it suppressing the wolf, the howling of wolves would already be everywhere.

So what exactly happened on their end?
What about those wolves?

Before Jiang Minglang could figure it out, the wolf pack at the foot of the mountain suddenly moved.

From his position, he couldn't see the wolves' entire bodies; he could only judge that the wolves were running quickly by the swaying grass and branches, and the gradually emerging wolf heads, bodies, or tails.

And the direction they ran was south.

At this moment, the white tiger glanced at Jiang Minglang again, then suddenly turned around and leaped down the mountain.

Jiang Minglang narrowed his eyes, pondering in his heart what it meant by giving him that last look.
Do you want him to go south with you?

"Ge Xiaomi, come with me."

As Jiang Minglang jumped off the bridge, he casually grabbed the sniper rifle from the sniper closest to him.

Then, taking Ge Xiaomi down the bridge and through the iron gate, they drove onto the Pingcheng Expressway, heading south in the direction the white tiger and the wolf pack had left.

He decided to get off quickly and walk even faster. By the time Wei Lichuan came down from the nearby sentry post, the car was nowhere to be seen.

Wei Lichuan frowned. Was this guy too impulsive this time?
He admitted that Jiang Zemin was very capable, both in the past and now, and there were almost no people in the military region who could surpass him.

But the situation is different now. What if a tiger and a pack of wolves surround him?
This is a ferocious beast; it cannot be judged by common sense.

Wei Lichuan hurriedly sent someone to Yunxi Village to inform Qiao Fei and Xu Bo that Du Qiyan had gone to the management office for a meeting in place of Jiang Minglang, and was not there.

Actually, he most wanted to inform Bai Li, but considering that she was still heavily pregnant and not suitable for being stressed, it was better to keep this from her.

His original intention was to keep it from Bai Li and not let her know, but when the young soldier went to find Qiao Fei, Bai Li happened to be at his house looking at the puppies.

At that time, Qiao Fei went out to see the young soldier and stood at the door of his house listening to his rapid-fire report. At the same time, Bai Li in the yard also heard everything clearly.

"I will go with you."

Bai Li called out to Qiao Fei, who was about to follow the young soldier, and also called over Qi Qi and Ji Ji.

She opened the car door and got in, then said, "I'm not going there because I'm worried about Jiang Minglang. I believe he won't take any risks. Since I've decided to go with him, I'm sure I'll be fine. I'm just curious and want to go see what's going on."

She said it, and that's really what she thought.

As for letting Qiqi go over as well, it's because my son seems to have a natural affinity for animals.

So maybe he really could be of help if he went there.

If they can't help, and a conflict breaks out, then Gigi, whose superpowers are more lethal, can step in. Even if he can't hurt the animals, he can scare them away.

Now everyone knows that there's a lightning-powered person in Yunxi Village. The most common guess is that he's one of Jiang Minglang's subordinates, and some even guess Qiao Fei, but no one guesses Lin Zhe. Many people don't even know Gigi's real name; they only know that Jiang Minglang and Bai Li's son has a close, inseparable friend who is an orphan.

As for what the child's name is, nobody cares.

This, in a way, also protects Gigi.

No one cares, which means no one pays attention to him. Since no one pays attention, there's no reason to analyze his special abilities.

The group rode in the young soldier's car and soon arrived at Pingjiang Bridge.

Wei Lichuan frowned as soon as he saw Bai Li, who was heavily pregnant, getting out of the car.

He glanced disapprovingly at Qiao Fei, who was striding onto the bridge, and whispered as he got closer, "Why did you tell Bai Li? What if this young lady can't handle the shock?"

"Who do you look down on?"

Qiao Fei interrupted him before he could finish, glancing at him sideways and saying, "First of all, Lao Jiang would never joke about his life before seeing his precious daughter born. Secondly, do you have some misunderstanding about Lao Jiang's fighting ability? Do you think he's never fought against a pack of wolves before?"

It is often said that the person who knows you best is your rival, and this statement is a profound truth.

Qiao Fei had always regarded Jiang Minglang as his rival, and he probably knew more about his past achievements and medals than Jiang Minglang himself did.

The battle he fought alone deep in the border mountains and jungles against the wolf pack shocked him for more than half a year while he was waiting outside.

However, few people knew about this, and Wei Lichuan, who was stationed in Kyoto year-round, was completely unaware of it.

Whether he knows or not doesn't really matter, as long as Lao Jiang knows the truth, he can come back the same way he left.

Seeing Qiqi following Bai Li, Wei Lichuan wanted to get closer to the little guy, but it wasn't the right time.

Finally, he could only sigh regretfully, picking up his binoculars as he asked Qiao Fei, "Are you going over there?"

"Let's see how things go first. What if Jiang is on good terms with Tiger and I make things worse if I go there? Then we're doomed."

Moreover, there was really no need for him to go, because the moment Bai Li got out of the car, a small piece of green ivy quickly ran away.

Qiao Fei asked with some curiosity, "Bai Li, how far can your pothos be remotely controlled now?"

How far is it?
Bai Li thought for a moment, then asked somewhat uncertainly, "Ten kilometers?"

Qiao Fei glared at him. "Who are you asking about?"

He paused for a moment after saying that, then opened his mouth in surprise, "Remote control from ten kilometers away? That far?"

Actually, it might be more than that. She used to be able to determine the exact distance, but as the baby in her belly grew bigger, she felt that her ability was also expanding infinitely. The exact limit is currently unknown.

So she came here today because she wanted to give it a try.

The mother and her two children found a shady spot on the bridge and stood there. Immediately, a young soldier hurriedly brought over a chair.

Qiqi was also very perceptive and placed a piece of ice next to his mother.

The child was very helpful. After putting ice in his mother's water bottle, he added ice to the water bottles of each soldier on duty, earning a string of thanks from everyone and getting his head patted all over.

"Mom, if anything happens, you must tell me. Gigi and I will go help Dad."

Once back with his mother, Qiqi began asking her what she had seen.

what did you see?
Bai Li closed her eyes slightly. As the green ivy sped along the highway, she felt that the large animals opposite her were gone. Not only were the tigers and wolves gone, but it seemed that the others were also gone.

She knew that the white tiger used to be accompanied by a leopard, but it seemed that the leopard was no longer in their territory.

Is this a group outing for a brawl?

And then, not content with just doing it himself, he called Jiang Minglang to help him?

It must be said that Bai Li's speculation is about 90% accurate.

The persistent high temperatures over the past few months have led to increasingly harsh living conditions in some areas, making them less and less suitable for habitation.

For example, Kangzhou and Ningcheng south of Pingcheng, and Wucheng and Sucheng further south.

The rivers and lakes surrounding these cities have dried up, and the animals that once ruled their territories, which used to be quite numerous, have now died of disease and thirst due to the high temperatures.

Those who survived naturally had a significant advantage in physical condition and even formidable combat strength.

But no matter how good one's physique or how strong one's fighting power, one still needs water.

As a result, this area of ​​Pingjiang, which had a good water source, naturally became a target for those animals.

Unbeknownst to Wei Lichuan and his soldiers, Baihu had already fought with a bear that had secretly come over for a drink of water.

This is the White Tiger's territory, which has belonged to it since the beginning of the apocalypse. Of course, it will not allow any other animal to set foot here even once.

The animals of those cities, who understood this perfectly, gathered together and decided to deal with the white tiger and its minions.

What brought the various groups together was a monkey that had previously occupied the Ningcheng Wildlife Park.

Monkeys are naturally intelligent animals, and this ape developed superpowers in the apocalypse, making its intelligence comparable to that of a ten-year-old child—it's incredibly clever.

When the white tiger fought with that bear last time, it saw this monkey from afar. With just one glance, it clearly realized that it couldn't beat the monkey.

So it cleverly came up with the idea of ​​calling for reinforcements.

It knew there was a powerful being among the humans opposite it, and it believed it could convey its meaning through eye contact.

We've been neighbors for over two years, surely we can't just not help with something as small as this?
Actually, it's not so much helping it as helping humans themselves.

After all, that monkey wasn't a good one; it ate newborn animals.

Just a few days ago, when the white tiger saw it from afar, it was holding a newborn monkey in its hand, sitting casually on the tree, eating and watching it.

Even as the Tiger King, I couldn't help but shudder at that moment.

Damn it, what kind of good person would eat their own kind for no reason?
Therefore, the white tiger concluded that if this monkey were to become a neighbor of humans, then they should be careful.

Newborn human babies are so fair and tender; that monkey, being so perverted, would definitely like them.

At this time, Baihu led his troops to the border between Pingcheng and Kangzhou.

Before long, Jiang Minglang, who had abandoned the car and led Ge Xiaomi through the jungle, also quietly arrived nearby.

good night!
