Chapter 49
The minibus drove out of Jiunan Ancient Town without any risk, with Gu Lan and the others leading the way, and the people from the Xiangtian base following them didn't take much effort.
It's just that, when the minibus rushes onto the main road outside the town and leaves here without any regrets, Tang Jinge and the others will be miserable!
Without the restraint of the spider monster, without Jiang Qing's secret deterrence, those zombies who would never leave the town easily, are now like beasts out of their cages. Even though Tang Jinge and the others had already escaped from the town, the zombies that were alarmed when they evacuated were still hot on their heels.
Gradually, Tang Jinge couldn't do what he wanted. He felt that his steps were getting heavier and heavier, and the teammates on his back seemed to be getting heavier. Every step he ran, or every time he killed a zombie, he could hear himself There was a wheezing sound. Behind him, the zombies are getting closer and closer, he can't last long! There were fewer and fewer people around him, and Tang Jinge didn't even dare to turn his head to see if those people ran away or died under the claws of those zombies. All he could do was run desperately. Suddenly, with a stagger, he fell to the ground, and the teammate on his back hit him heavily. He pushed his teammate away with all his strength, but the moment he got up, he saw the zombies rushing towards him. Subconsciously, he pushed the teammate beside him, and then ran forward desperately... In the car, Yin Mulan's knuckles turned white as he was holding the binoculars. She was just worried, and before she could let go completely, she went to the little fat man in the team and asked for the binoculars hanging around his neck. She just wanted to take one last look to make sure that he was really safe! But what did she see? Yin Mulan put down the binoculars rather numbly, with a look of sadness on her face. If the person he was carrying behind his back just now was her, would the result be the same? Without Bai Lu's help to monitor, Gu Lan actually didn't know about this scene. She just suddenly noticed that Yin Mulan's aura was a little unstable, so she glanced at Jiang Qing with some clarity, knowing that Jiang Qing had probably withdrawn her coercion, presumably that Tang Jinge was in danger. But what's the use of keeping such a man? Gu Lan pursed her lips, not intending to help.
"Auntie..." Luo Jiajia exclaimed, and then opened her eyes suddenly. She wanted to sit up, but because she was involved in the wound, she suddenly groaned, followed by rapid breathing, as if she would die at any moment.
Luo Jiajia suddenly woke up, interrupting the dull atmosphere in the car.
"No, sister Gu Lan, she has a fever!" Ye Huo, who had been paying attention to Luo Jiajia's situation, said immediately.
Gu Lan frowned. Now that the Chaos Stone is not in her hands, it is obviously impossible to treat Luo Jiajia immediately, so she searched in the Chaos Stone, and then took out a few boxes of antipyretics and anti-inflammatory medicines and handed them to Ye Huo .
Ye Huo was startled, but immediately took it, took out the unfinished water in his backpack, and with the help of Ye Jingqi, fed Luo Jiajia medicine.
After taking the medicine, Luo Jiajia still seemed to be suffering, but she still struggled to look in Gu Lan's direction: "Sister Gu Lan, my aunt..." "
She's fine for now, but she probably isn't your aunt anymore." Gu Lan Lan frowned and said, she didn't know how to explain to this girl, and there was no way to explain this matter.
"I know... she really doesn't look like my aunt..." Luo Jiajia closed her eyes, and a line of tears flowed silently. There is only seven or eight years of age difference between her and her aunt. She was accompanied by her aunt throughout her childhood. Now that her aunt has become like this, how could she not be sad? "Sister Jiajia, what are you talking about? They clearly killed Aunt Qi!" Xu Xiangjun, who was sitting in the corner of the last row, shouted, her voice was very sharp, and her eyes were full of hatred towards Gu Lan and others . Gu Lan saw the girl being carried into the car by Ye Jingqi. Selfishly, she didn't want this girl to follow her. Because her relationship with that Lu Weiqi is too deep, and she is not sensible. From everyone's point of view, Lu Weiqi should have been dealt with secretly by Jiang Qing, and it must be troublesome for her to stay. But in that case, not letting her follow would be tantamount to killing her. After all, she was still very young, and the awakened water ability had no attack power. Gu Lan didn't want people to think that she was going to kill them all, so she acquiesced.
Gu Lan glanced at Xu Xiangjun, but ignored her. When she reached the next place where there were survivors, she would put down the little girl.
Xu Xiangjun flinched, and continued to shrink in the corner, but the hostile gaze didn't weaken a bit from the beginning to the end.
"Sister Gu Lan... Lu, Lu Weiqi is really attracted by you..." Ye Jingqi is a person who can't hide his words, but he doesn't know how to ask, so he stammered and was dragged by Ye Huo He didn't care about pulling his sleeves.
After being silent for a while, Gu Lan sighed, and said lightly, "I didn't kill her."
Ye Jingqi wanted to ask something more, but was pulled by Ye Huo, and then he could only purse his lips, Shut up.
Ye Huo nodded towards Gu Lan with a look of embarrassment.
No one spoke again, even Yin Mulan, who had been active all along, fell silent. The atmosphere in the car was very dull, and Tian Dajiang took the opportunity to say: "We can't get through the front, let's all get out of the car and do some activities." Everyone got out of the car one by one, and Luo Jiajia was also hugged
. After getting down, Gu Lan and Jiang Qing held hands, then waved their hands casually to put away the car and walked forward first.
This is probably the first time that Jiang Qing and Gu Lan have been so affectionate in front of everyone. Ye Jingqi winked at the back and made a secret sign with Ye Huo, as if he wanted Ye Huo to take the lead and tease Gu Lan and Jiang Qing, but Ye Huo didn't Cooperate.
Going forward, every one or two kilometers, the road surface will be cut off. Although the width is not very wide, it is enough to block the steps and vehicles of ordinary zombies. It is very inconvenient to drive again. Ye Jingqi and Xu Weiming carried Luo Jiajia, and the others walked quietly. Hu Zi was assigned to scout the road ahead, and Gu Lan and the others were moving fairly fast. "Sister Mulan, Xiangtian base has dug the road like this, so don't you need to drive? If so, wouldn't it be very inconvenient in case of an emergency?" Ye Huo asked suddenly.
"Some of the cars in the Xiangtian base are in the base, and there is a passage on the other side to go down the mountain. There are more than ten cars hidden in a town under the mountain here, and they are rarely used. If you need them, I can go to pick them up. One of my own private cars."
"No need, more cars consume more fuel, and this minibus is enough, I'm just curious why this road was dug like this." Ye Huo touched the road in embarrassment Nose, in fact, he has already figured out such a simple question, and suddenly asked Yin Mulan, also wanting to see how much sense of belonging she has to this team?
Yin Mulan probably knew what Ye Huo meant, seeing that he refused and Gu Lan didn't say anything, she fell silent again.
The atmosphere was silent again, and everyone hurried on their way in silence.
When it was dark, they finally descended from Jiunan Mountain and took a winding road leading to a provincial road. With Yin Mulan around, Gu Lan and the others avoided many detours.
Because they were in a hurry to go down the mountain, Gu Lan and the others missed the campsite, so they could only spend the night on the road.
The dinner was very sumptuous. Uncle Tian stewed rice and stewed a large pot of bacon and potatoes. Gu Lan also took out several cans of meat and some bagged pickles for dinner.
Yin Mulan's mood finally improved a little. While picking up the rice, she said vaguely: "Zhucao, I should have met you sooner. Your life is really wonderful! Uncle's rice is also delicious... ..."
Gu Lan ate very little now, she picked up some more food from the bowl for Yin Mulan, and ate it in small bites. Jiang Qing, on the other hand, had already squatted on the bus with a bowl in his hand. No one knew if he ate or not. Anyway, he didn't bring a bowl when he came down. Probably only Tian Dajiang noticed this detail, but he didn't say anything. He has seen too many things he shouldn't have seen, and he always feels that his awakened ability is not a good thing! After arranging the night watch order, everyone took turns to rest in the car. In the post-apocalyptic winter night, it is extremely cold, and it can reach minus twenty degrees at will. It's even colder in the wild. Many people huddled under the quilts, tossing and turning for a long time before falling asleep.
In the first half of the night when Gu Lan and Jiang Qing were on duty, when it was someone else's turn, she didn't call them up. Instead, he continued to squat on the top of the bus with Jiang Qing.
After making sure that everyone was sound asleep, Gu Lan suddenly put her arms on Jiang Qing's body, and then disappeared on the bus.
During dinner, she already knew that Bai Lu had woken up, and there were some changes in the Chaos Stone, but she never had the chance to come in and take a closer look.
In the Chaos Stone, Bai Lu was still lying on the ground with her belly turned upside down, she seemed a little uncomfortable, but she had already woken up, and when she saw Gu Lan, she even flapped her wings as a greeting.
Gu Lan snorted coldly, and ignored him. The crystal nucleus of the spider monster was comparable to a top-grade middle-grade spirit stone, and he swallowed it all at once. It's good that he didn't burst his stomach! However, the changes in the Chaos Stone are indeed quite big.
The place is still as big as before, but the aura is much stronger. Looking from a distance, it is full of greenery everywhere, especially the spiritual trees that Bai Lu highlighted before. Gu Lan went to check it out.
What makes her laugh is that Bai Lu's gluttony probably has only one benefit. Now there are about ten spiritual trees in the Chaos Stone, and Bai Lu cherishes them and plants them by the stream.
She knows a few of them, and one fruit can probably prolong life for a hundred years, but it’s just that it blooms for hundreds of years and bears fruit for hundreds of years. It’s the same as not. She is eager to improve her strength now. Who can say what will happen hundreds of years later!
She didn't know the others, but they were not precious spiritual fruits, and she didn't know where Bailu got them. She just hoped that they would mature sooner and be suitable for her current cultivation.
After seeing the changes in the Chaos Stone, Gu Lan went to the place where Mo Xin was imprisoned.
She was lying there with her eyes blank, as if she was dead! After Gu Lan approached, she rolled her eyes and sat up suddenly...
