Chapter 121 Reckless

Yunnanxuan: "No..."

Lin Xiayue: "Yes."

A gust of wind suddenly blew around, and the scene was awkward for some reason.

The two looked at each other.

Yunnanxuan laughed and tried to ease the atmosphere: "...I forgot, it was true."

After saying that, he shrank his body and lowered his head to reduce his presence.

Lin Xiayue straightened her face and said in a deep voice, "Captain Xie, this is what happened. We went to clean up the zombies nearby these days and found a very strange phenomenon."

She carefully recalled the differences between the zombies, organized her words in her mind and continued, "Those zombies are different from the usual zombies. Their defense is comparable to that of the second-level or even higher zombies. "We found a zombie, but the truth is, they are just ordinary zombies or first-level zombies."

"In addition, they seem to be restricted in some way and cannot leave the area around them. After we killed the zombie, we found a spiritual crystal core and a tightly wrapped package..."

Shen Sui'an's thoughts turned, and his eyes dimmed.

"At the beginning, someone opened the package, and after opening it, something like a black bug flew to the man's face and drilled into his skin..."

"Then it turned into a zombie."

Thinking of that scene, Lin Xiayue still felt a lingering fear.

Accidents always come unexpectedly. Teammates who were just joking together, in the blink of an eye, have become enemies...

"What are the manifestations after the zombification?" Shen Sui'an's long eyelashes trembled, and he rubbed his chin with his fingertips, "For example, speed, abnormality, and surface phenomena..."

"Zombification is very fast, almost within a few breaths of that thing drilling into the skin." Lin Xiayue glanced at the silent Xie Yubai and answered her question, "If you talk about abnormality, its defense The ability is much stronger than that of ordinary zombies... On the surface, there is nothing unusual, no different from ordinary zombies. "

"The first package was opened, what about the ones behind it?"

"Destroyed." Lin Xiayue explained, "I originally wanted to keep it for research, but those things seemed to know something. During our transportation, they broke free from the package one by one, and we had to burn them."

"Yeah."

Shen Sui'an responded, and there was no follow-up.

Xie Yubai raised his arm and hooked it around her neck, his dark eyes slightly lowered, and his voice was gentle: "Have you finished asking?"

"Almost."

The main reason is that these two people don't seem to know too much.

She thought for a moment and said, "Xiaobai, I want to go out and take a look."

A spiritual crystal core and a tightly wrapped package...

It's familiar no matter how you think about it.

"Okay."

He never refuses her requests.

Lin Xiayue, who was thinking about how to convince Xie Yubai, hurriedly said, "Captain Qu is currently outside the city. He found a place and wanted me to call you, Commander Xie. Now is the right time. I'll take you there."

Xie Yubai looked lazy and said, "Lead the way."

"Okay."

Yunnanxuan thought about it and followed.

**

At this time, in a ruin outside the city.

"Captain Qu, are you sure Commander Xie will come?" Qinuo thought of the man's peaceful appearance and asked hesitantly, "Why don't we call a few adjutants?"

Qiao Yuqin nodded: "This matter is very serious and cannot be delayed."

The recent frequent changes in the situation have made people panic, and coupled with this change...

We must be prepared in advance.

Qu Ninghuai glanced at the situation not far away and rubbed his temples: "Didn't Captain Lin go back? If Commander Xie didn't come, she would definitely ask a few adjutants."

Qinuo looked into the distance, "Xia Yue has been gone for a while, did she run into trouble?"

"Probably not." Qiao Yuqin said, "The zombies from here to District 7 have almost been cleared, there shouldn't be any accidents on the way."

"Could it be that Commander Xie can't be found?"

"I don't think so." Qiao Yuqin paused, "Commander Xie has appeared frequently these days, and sometimes he goes out It shouldn't be hard to find the zombies."

The face with excellent bone structure flashed before Zino's eyes, and he couldn't escape the gossiping nature of human beings after all: "You say, is that really the wife of Commander Xie?"

"She introduced herself in person these few days, could it be fake?"

Qu Ninghuai moved his ears and leaned forward: "I don't think it's fake. It's the end of the world now, who would joke about this, let alone Commander Xie. Besides, when have you ever seen Commander Xie so gentle and patient?"

"..."

It is indeed.

But——

"Captain Qu, when did you become so gossipy?"

"Don't you think this melon is delicious?"

"It is delicious... but it is also quite life-consuming."

"... Indeed."

Then there was silence.

"By the way, is this incident only happening around District 7? Or is it happening in other districts as well?" Zino raised his doubts, "The spiritual crystal core is tightly wrapped, how can it not look like a natural disaster."

It's more like a man-made disaster.

Qiao Yuqin: "Targeted?"

"Why targeted?" Qu Ninghuai was puzzled, "District 7 has always been low-key and rarely makes enemies outside. Besides, in this environment, who would go to such great lengths to take revenge?"

Before they could figure out the truth, Qu Ninghuai glanced to the side and said, "Thank you, Commander."

Did he really invite him?

Qiao Yuqin and Qi Nuo looked at each other and followed Qu Ninghuai's line of sight.

The man had a tall and straight figure, superior facial bones, high brow bones, narrow and foxy eyes with lazy indifference, and a compelling aura.

Beside him, there was undoubtedly the girl that the people in District 7 had paid the most attention to in the past few days.

Her chestnut hair was tied into a high ponytail, revealing her smooth neckline, willow-shaped eyebrows, almond-shaped eyes, fair skin, and brown eyes flashing with tiny starlight, which was particularly eye-catching.

She was like the only pure land in the ruins, making people relax and feel a moment of peace.

"Thank you, sir."

Sensing the man's cold gaze, the three of them hurriedly retracted their gazes and shouted in unison.

Xie Yubai's thin red lips seemed to be raised, his Adam's apple rolled lightly, and he said "hmm".

Shen Sui'an's attention was all on the back, his eyes fell from the wandering zombie to another place, his almond-shaped eyes flashed slightly.

She walked past several people and walked towards the zombie.

"Sister-in-law, you can't go over there..."

This zombie is different from the ones they saw before. It is much stronger. They tried it and estimated that it is a third-level zombie.

This is also the second reason why they have to find the superior or several lieutenants.

Shen Sui'an's footsteps did not stop, with a hint of arrogance in his eyebrows, and he said in a lazy tone: "It's okay, it's not a threat."

It's just a third-level zombie, even if it's different from the past.

Qu Ninghuai and others looked at Xie Yubai, as if hoping that he could persuade them.

Xie Yubai's cold eyes swept over the people quickly, and he raised his eyebrows and asked calmly: "What are you worried about?"

What are you worried about?

Of course, he is worried about Shen Sui'an!

You should know that this person cares about Shen Sui'an to a great extent...

Wait, wait a minute.

Care?

If you care, why not be anxious.

There is not even a trace of worry on his face.

"..."

Something is wrong, this is very wrong.

"Do you think she is acting on impulse? Or is she relying on me to act recklessly?"

The man's words successfully choked several people, and they lowered their heads and said nothing.

It is undeniable that they do have such thoughts.

Even though the thought flashed through his mind, even though he knew he shouldn't move...

"Tsk--"

A lazy and disdainful chuckle fell beside his ears, like a stone hitting his heart, hammering at him word by word: "Let's not talk about anything else, just say that she relies on me to do things..."

He paused for a second, "That's also my honor."

"Besides, she does things casually, but not without thinking."

Whether she was a child or now, she has her own rhythm and plan for doing things.

He never interferes too much.

...Although, most of his interference is not very effective (bushi

...

Chapter 122 Seven Years of Itching

The closer he got, the clearer the face of the zombie came into view.

Shen Sui'an suddenly had a headache. If he had known that this day would come, he should have paid more attention to it at the flower market that day. It would have been better than the vague outline left in his mind now...

To say that there is a big difference, there is not much.

It's just that——

Shen Sui'an keenly discovered that the eyes of this zombie were different from those of other zombies. They were a barely perceptible dark red, which made it even more weird.

The swaying zombie suddenly stopped in place, staring at her in a twisted posture, its mouth full of black viscous liquid opened wide, but before it could laugh, the whole zombie was covered by a layer of ice crystals, its expression was frozen, and its dark red eyes stared straight in her direction...

Shen Sui'an said expressionlessly: "Don't laugh, it's unbearable to look at if you laugh."

"..."

A row of bright red question marks appeared on the zombie's forehead.

Behind him, Qu Ninghuai and others were stunned.

"Nanxuan, can your ability be so awesome?"

In the blink of an eye, a zombie that is stronger than a third-level zombie was frozen. Not to mention struggling, it couldn't even move.

Yun Nanxuan shook his head honestly: "No."

His ability level is not low, and he just reached level six recently, but he asked himself, in dealing with this zombie, he is definitely not as good as Shen Sui'an.

He didn't even see how she moved her hands.

Suddenly remembering something, he tilted his head and looked at the man's sharp outline and the smile flashing in his deep eyebrows...

He seemed to know.

Not knowing what he saw, Xie Yubai's deep eyebrows moved slightly, his slender legs spread out, and he hurried in front of Shen Sui'an to pick up the inconspicuous box on the ground.

"It's a bit dirty, don't take it."

His white fingertips were stained with a little dust, and there were a few conspicuous black stains.

His eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and his expression was slightly irritated.

Yun Nanxuan handed over a clean towel very tactfully, "Sir Xie, wrap it with this."

Qu Ninghuai: "But this is not easy to keep for too long. The thing inside will become restless when it senses the breath of a living person."

"Zombie eggs."

"What?" Qinuo was stunned.

Qiao Yuqin was a little confused: "What is a zombie egg?"

This is the first time I heard it.

"Literally, after taking zombie eggs, normal people will become zombies, and zombies will mutate or advance."

Shen Sui'an didn't explain too much, but took a closer look at the black box, and then his slender fingers lightly touched the top of the box, and instantly covered it with ice crystals, and there was a faint mist.

"Take it back and study it."

It's dead, so I don't know how much I can study.

After hearing her words, Xie Yubai quickly handed this hot potato to Qu Ninghuai, and then picked up the towel delivered by Yunnan Xuan and slowly wiped his bony hands.

That movement, don't mention how elegant it is.

Qu Ninghuai's expression remained unchanged, "Captain Qiao, this job is going to trouble you."

Qiao Yuqin's eyebrows jumped, but she accepted it without refusing.

Before the end of the world, she majored in medicine and liked to study this kind of challenging stuff the most, and now is no exception.

The matter was solved surprisingly smoothly.

Looking at Shen Sui'an who was being led forward by Xie Yubai, Lin Xiayue couldn't help but ask, "Then this zombie..."

Does it need to be killed?

Before the voice fell, a crisp "crackling" sound was heard, as if something was broken.

"Xia Yue, look--"

Qiao Yuqin patted her shoulder excitedly, her tone was very excited.

Lin Xiayue looked at it, and her breath stagnated after just one glance.

The frozen zombie fell to the ground piece by piece as the ice broke apart, with no chance of survival.

Awesome!

"I actually..." Qinuo laughed at himself, "Now I think I'm really stupid. How could someone that Commander Xie likes be simple?"

Yun Nanxuan swallowed his saliva, clenched his hands into fists with excitement, and looked at the girl's slender back with stars in his eyes, full of admiration.

"I've decided..."

"What have you decided?" Qu Ninghuai looked at him with a look of excitement, and was stunned for a moment.

"I've decided to listen to my idol's advice."

"You, idol? Advice?"

When? What advice?

"From today on, my sister-in-law is my idol!"

"... Didn't you say before that Commander Xie is your idol?"

"They are tied for first place, is there a problem?"

"..." Qu Ninghuai moved his mouth, "Just be happy."

Qiao Yuqin lowered her eyes, looking at the ice-blue box in her hand that was emitting cold air but not freezing her hands, her eyes sparkling.

So powerful.

Then she thought of her own abilities and lowered her head a little disappointed.

Although the healing system and the speed system are dual systems, they are both auxiliary...

It's okay, it's okay, she comforted herself in her heart, there are also strong and weak auxiliary, she can get the strongest one.

**

"So I'm so unattractive?"

The slightly resentful voice echoed in her ears, making Shen Sui'an, who was thinking seriously, stunned for a moment.

The man hooked her fingers and gently stroked them a few times, staring at her with his dark eyes without blinking, his mouth curled up, not to mention how aggrieved he was.

"Madam has been paying less attention to me recently."

He snorted, "Madam and I are together every day."

"Is it true that distance creates beauty, as people say? Do we need to keep a certain distance to get closer?"

"Or is it the seven-year itch?"

They have known each other since childhood, and the time they have spent as lovers is probably about seven years...

Shen Sui'an listened to his long string of words and laughed so hard that her shoulders shook. She tried to hold back her laughter and poked his cheek with her finger. Her beautiful eyebrows curved into crescents, and she was so happy: "Xiaobai, you are so cute."

This irrelevant answer made Xie Yubai laugh.

He leaned forward, pressed against her and held her in his arms, complaining angrily: "Can't you coax me? I'm easy to coax."

Shen Sui'an followed his wishes and coaxed: "Then kiss, don't be angry, okay?"

"Isn't one kiss too little?" His eyes lit up, and he asked, "How about two kisses?"

As he said that, he lowered his head and looked at her level.

Shen Sui'an went up and kissed her twice, one on each side of her face, "Okay, it's just symmetrical."

"..."

"Kiss like this?"

Xie Yubai's tongue swept across his cheeks, whether he was going to smile or not.

"Then what else?"

"..." Xie Yubai was silent for two seconds, then he bent his fingers and tapped her smooth and plump forehead. When he touched the pair of brown eyes that reflected his face, his anger instantly disappeared.

"It's okay, I'm fine."

Tsk, he's so stingy.

She's his, they have a lifetime together, why is he angry here?

Sick!

As if afraid that Shen Sui'an wouldn't believe him, he added and emphasized: "I'm really not angry."

With her by his side, he can comfort himself, so why should he be angry?

Shen Sui'an: "..."

It feels like he's trying to hide something.

"I'm thinking about the zombie eggs." She hooked her pinky finger around his in a flattering manner, her voice sweet, "Do you remember the baby zombie I told you about at the flower market?"

"I remember."

"There was a similar box where the zombie was, with the same three scratches on it, and inside was a spiritual crystal core and a small package."

But the spiritual crystal core was absorbed by her.

Chapter 123 Easy to coax

Xie Yubai listened to her quietly, and the corners of his lips curled up: "Why don't we go to Beizhou District 3?"

"Wow!" Shen Sui'an blinked and exaggeratedly praised, "How did Xiaobai know that I wanted to go to Beizhou District 3? Is this the legendary telepathy?"

Xie Yubai was stunned for a moment, and then his chest shook. His bony hands covered his dark eyes, and an undisguised laugh overflowed from his throat, and his whole body was filled with joy.

"Baby, who did you learn this from?"

So cute!

I really want to keep it to myself...

Shen Sui'an smiled and asked: "Are you still angry?"

"I haven't been angry for a long time." Xie Yubai kissed her pink lips, the smile on his face deepened, the corners of his mouth curled up, looking very proud, "I've said it before, I'm easy to coax."

Shen Sui'an looked at the worthless smile on his handsome face and laughed: "Then let's go to Beizhou District 3 after there is progress in the research. These few days ..."

She paused for a second, and under the man's expectant gaze, she completed the rest of the words: "Let's go out secretly, just the two of us."

"That's what you said."

The man tried hard to suppress the smile on his face, and tried his best to pull down the arc of his mouth, pretending to be serious, "I didn't ask you to do it, you insisted on taking me to elope."

"..."

It's okay to ask him, but what's the matter with elopement?

Is it a hobby?

Shen Sui'an was also generous. He thought of a reason that he thought was acceptable and accepted it with peace of mind. He also cooperated very well and performed: "Yes, it was my request, just the two of us, elopement, do you want to do it?"

I should have heard some sweet words, but she said some heroic words of generous death.

But someone who was so excited that he couldn't hear anything at all, nodded hurriedly: "Fuck!"

"Let's go today?"

"How about now?"

It was their first "elopement", and the two of them were inexplicably excited. Shen Sui'an licked his dry lips and said, "Okay, let's go now while no one is paying attention."

Xie Yubai took out a can of Wangzai from the space, opened the pull ring, inserted a straw, and handed it to Shen Sui'an, "We can't see the snow for now, so why don't we go see the sea first?"

"Okay."

The sweet taste spread in his mouth, and Shen Sui'an squinted his eyes in enjoyment, "I haven't seen the sea for a long time."

Just when it was finalized, he heard a shout: "Boss, sister-in-law, why are you here?"

"..."

"..."

It didn't even start, and it died?

Xie Yubai had a gloomy face, looking at Fu Nanchuan and Fu Sili who were walking towards him with displeasure, and the pressure around him was extremely low.

I haven't met anyone for a few days, so I have to meet him today, right?

Fu Nanchuan's steps stopped as he hurried over. He had been following Xie Yubai for a while. If he couldn't even understand this, he would be really stupid.

Looking around at the sky, he suddenly smiled: "The weather is good today, Boss, let's go over there to see if there are any zombies, and we won't disturb you and sister-in-law."

Fu Sili looked at the gray sky: "..."

Serious?

Before he could figure it out, Fu Nanchuan pulled him away.

Fu Sili looked at the hands on his wrists and followed Fu Nanchuan's steps in a trance.

Looking at the man's broad and tall back, he was surprised that the little boy who had been holding back tears when he was a child had grown up and was able to support himself.

For a moment, he couldn't tell whether he was happier or sadder. A little less joy, a little less sadness, neither is perfect, but both are there.

"I'm sorry."

Fu Nanchuan's steps slowed down slightly, and he continued to move forward as if he hadn't heard anything, and the hand holding Fu Sili's wrist quietly loosened.

However, the next second, Fu Sili took the initiative to hold his hand, and repeated sincerely: "Nanchuan, I'm sorry."

"I don't need it."

"I know." Fu Sili pursed his lips, "I know you don't need it, but I want to say it."

"Heh."

Fu Nanchuan sneered, stopped and looked at him, with a mocking tone: "It's not your fault, why do you apologize to me?"

"You shouldn't apologize, I don't need their apology... No, they won't apologize to me..."

"Fu Sili, I will never forgive them."

For so many years, he has never been able to reconcile with himself.

"I didn't ask you to forgive them." Fu Sili bent his lips, "Nanchuan, I hope you live well. This is not what anyone else wants, it only represents me personally."

"I don't want the shadow of that time to always accompany you, I hope you can be happy."

"As for my parents..."

Fu Sili paused and said softly, "Although they are partial, but... I can't just leave them alone."

They were indeed not good to Fu Nanchuan, but they were also good to him.

"I know." Fu Nanchuan looked cold and shook off his touch, "You don't have to tell me, I don't care about their affairs, including you."

"Go back to District 13 if you have nothing to do, don't stay here all the time."

"Very annoying."

Fu Sili had a complicated look on his face, opened his mouth, and the words circled around his mouth. Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by a pretty female voice: "Brother Nanchuan."

Liang Yichen came to him with a smile on her face: "I have something to find you, can you come over?"

As she spoke, she glanced at Fu Sili's place.

"Sure." Touching that smiling face like the sun, Fu Nanchuan's tense nerves slowly relaxed, "Let's go."

He turned around and left without saying hello to Fu Sili.

Liang Yicheng: "Then Captain Fu, we...will leave first."

Fu Sili nodded: "Yes."

Looking at the tall and short figures gradually moving away, Fu Sili closed his eyes, rubbed his sore temples, and walked aimlessly on the street.

After a while, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Didn't he stay here just to see this scene?

Whether he lets go now or not, he will let go one day, it's just a matter of time.

The good news is that he didn't close himself off because of those things, and he still has his own team and friends.

Pretty good...really!

On the other side.

"Is there anything you want to talk to me about?"

Liang Yicheng shook his hands behind his back, turned his head, and stuck out his tongue embarrassedly: "No."

"Hmm?" Fu Nanchuan was puzzled.

"I'm sorry, Brother Nanchuan. I saw that you didn't seem to be in a good mood just now, so I took the initiative to call you over."

Chapter 124 Love you

"Thank you."

Liang Yichen looked up: "Huh?"

The cold vigilance between Fu Nanchuan's eyebrows faded, and he smiled with his lips bent, which gave off the taste of melting ice and snow. He smiled and patted her head, "Thank you, otherwise I don't know what to do next?"

Having been used to loneliness since childhood, he was at a loss for such a sensational drama.

Liang Yichen's thoughts were stagnant for a few seconds.

After knowing each other for so long, it was the first time she saw such a sincere smile on Fu Nanchuan's face. As she looked at it, she seemed to be able to read some warmth from it.

The force on her head suddenly eased, and Fu Nanchuan was very tactful and kept a distance from her, his eyes slightly evasive: "I heard that some strange things were found recently, how about we go over and take a look?"

Liang Yichen heard this, suppressed the strange emotions that inexplicably surged in her heart, nodded and said: "Okay, I was going to go over there too."

Then, the two of them tacitly did not break the quiet atmosphere, and this state continued until they reached their destination.

"Adjutant Fu, Adjutant Liang."

Qino, who was standing outside the door, noticed them first and called them softly.

Fu Nanchuan: "Why are you all here?"

"It's like this..." Zino told him exactly what happened not long ago, and then laughed, "I didn't expect my sister-in-law to be so powerful. I was the first to take charge."

Liang Yicheng and Fu Nanchuan looked at each other and thought of the trip to the north a few days ago...

Yunnanxuan didn't join in their chat, "Adjutant Fu, Adjutant Liang, you guys chat, I'm going to train."

Without waiting for the two to respond, he walked away excitedly with his fists clenched, and his whole body was full of excitement.

"..."

"???"

Lin Xiayue, as the only person who knew about the situation, took the responsibility of clarifying the confusion: "When we first met my sister-in-law and Commander Xie, Yun Nanxuan said that he wanted my sister-in-law to guide him, and my sister-in-law gave him a suggestion: Try not to rely on absorbing crystal cores to upgrade your superpowers, saying that the superpower reserves are not pure..."

Liang Yichen thought for a moment and slowly spoke: "The crystal core itself was dug out from a zombie, stained with the zombie's evil spirit and a small amount of virus. Although it can be removed with light-based superpowers, it is not guaranteed that it will not be completely removed..."

Even if it looks crystal clear, without any pollution.

"Sister-in-law's consideration is correct. Don't always think about taking shortcuts."

"But sister-in-law said it, it's just a suggestion. It's up to you whether to listen to it or not. The final decision still depends on yourself."

As she said this, she suddenly remembered what Xie Yubai said casually at the beginning.

He said: "Improve your strength, don't always think about taking shortcuts."

It turns out that the boss has always known and has reminded them long ago...

**

The sultry wind blew across the ground with a strong smell of blood and decay. At a glance, the world was lonely and dilapidated.

The farther away from the base, the more zombies you see. Perhaps it was because of the weather, the activities of the zombies began to become frequent and active.

Xie Yubai was driving with one hand. Seeing this, he raised his eyebrows and smiled casually. He stepped on the accelerator to the bottom and crashed into it.

The zombie was knocked to the ground and was ruthlessly rolled under the wheels before it could react. It didn't even say a last word.

District 7 is located in the south, so it is not difficult to find the sea here.

Xie Yubai drove very steadily, and with one hand held in the palm of the man's hand, Shen Sui'an suddenly felt sleepy. She yawned and dozed off against the back of the chair.

When she woke up, the SUV had stopped.

"Are we there yet?" She rubbed her eyes and asked vaguely.

"Yeah." Xie Yubai raised his hand and tidied the messy hair around her ears in an intimate manner. His thin lips curled slightly, and his voice was clear and tender, like the evening breeze blowing in the sky, "We will rest here for the next two days."

After that, he added: "There is a tent in the space."

"Camping?" Shen Sui'an's eyes lit up, and he curled his eyebrows excitedly, "This is my first time to experience this kind of camping. It must be very exciting."

The man's dark eyes passed through a few stars, and he unbuckled her seat belt very gently, "Go and have fun, leave the rest to me."

With him, she doesn't need to worry too much.

Shen Sui'an's smile never faded. She stepped forward and kissed the man on the corner of his lips, praising him without reservation: "My husband is so wise. I love you. Muah."

After she finished speaking, she opened the car door. Before she could get out of the car, the man's strong arms trapped her in a small area. His hot breath sprayed on her cheeks. The faint scent of gardenia and the breath of male hormones completely enveloped her...

"What, what happened...?"

She relaxed her consciousness as she breathed in, feeling the soft touch on her lips, and asked in a low voice.

"You..." The man's sexy Adam's apple rolled, and his eyes were filled with love and heat, "Baby, shout again."

His fingers stroked her palms, and his voice was slightly hoarse and seductive: "I want to hear it~"

She felt a tingling sensation in her earlobes, and even ignored the itching in her palms. She cleared her throat and pretended to be calm and composed and shouted: "Husband..."

In an instant, the man's sparkling fox eyes seemed to hide thousands of bright stars. He moved his lips, but just buried his head in her neck. His shoulders shook with a muffled and happy laugh: "Baby, shout more often in the future, okay?"

Shen Sui'an, who could obviously feel the man's good mood, curled his eyebrows and softened his voice: "Okay."

It's not a difficult task.

Although I often forget...

Xie Yubai heard the answer he wanted to hear, and kissed the corner of her lips contentedly, stepped back, and said, "Let's go play."

Shen Sui'an said "hmm" and turned to get out of the car.

The temperature at the seaside was slightly lower, and the cool wind blew ripples across the calm sea surface, sweeping away the heat and numbness that had not yet dissipated from Shen Sui'an's earlobes.

She exhaled deeply, looked at the endless azure blue, opened her arms, and let the wind blow her full of her arms.

Xie Yubai saw this scene when he got out of the car.

The girl was wearing a smoky purple knee-length dress, and her chestnut hair was braided into a princess braid and casually draped behind her head. The breeze blew up her dress and hair, and a beautiful arc was rippled in the air.

It was like a painting, full of the quiet and peaceful years.

To be honest, the surrounding environment was not beautiful.

Behind her were dead grass and trees, and the yellow sand was a bit dazzling; in front of her was an overly blue but not very clear ocean, and the air around her had a faint fishy smell, which would still make people feel uncomfortable if they smelled it too much.

The man leaned casually in front of the car, his hands in his pockets, his straight back slightly hunched, his long legs bent, his slightly pursed thin lips pulled up an arc, and he stared at the girl not far away.

His eyes were filled with indelible doting and tenderness, and he exuded a lazy and unruly spirit, looking uninhibited.

"Xiaobai!"

The only person with light in his dark eyes turned around and waved at him with a smile, "Come and see."

His heartbeat suddenly accelerated as if out of control, and all the sounds in his ears became ethereal, leaving only the beautiful music beating his eardrums.

The figure in his eyes was still moving, like a butterfly dancing in his heart...

Xie Yubai remembered the scene when he first fell in love.

He was fifteen years old at that time. In the afterglow of the setting sun, the girl was covered with a layer of golden light. Her facial features became blurred, but she smiled at him like this, waved at him, and said to him: "Xiaobai, you are so slow. I can't eat the candied haws at the street..."

What did he think at that time? It was too long ago, and the memory became blurred...

But his most stubborn idea was that he wanted to be with her for the rest of his life.

Now he is twenty-five years old, and she is still by his side.

The dream at that time has come true...

It's great!

"Here you are."

Chapter 125: Being pampered and arrogant

Xie Yubai walked over with big strides, naturally held the person in his arms, lowered his eyes and chuckled: "What strange things did you see?"

"A colorful fish, the first time I see it." Shen Sui'an pointed to him with interest, "And it can still be so lively on land, it has too much vitality..."

Xie Yubai looked in the direction she pointed, and saw a fish with more than seven colors jumping in the sand. It was not big, only about twice as big as a normal fish.

After jumping around for a long time, there was not much sand on it. It was estimated that it had been there for a while...

It was out of water for so long, but it was still so energetic. I guess...

"With such good sports cells, it should taste good, at least very chewy."

...It must be a mutant.

"Eat...?"

He was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud, his whole chest vibrating.

"Baby, I know you like food, but I didn't expect you to be so picky..."

He laughed so hard that he fell forward and backward, not holding back at all.

"You are good at pretending, I didn't see it before."

Shen Sui'an: "..."

She thought he was complimenting her.

Laughing happily, he began to emphasize: "Forget about food, but not people. The old ones understand you the most and are the best."

He didn't forget to praise himself at this time.

Shen Sui'an's eyes turned, "That's not necessarily true."

Xie Yubai smiled but didn't smile. He pinched the soft flesh on her waist and smiled dangerously: "Baby, be more kind. I want you to watch and play more here."

The threat should not be too obvious. Shen Sui'an was not afraid. She still looked at him with a crooked look, and said arrogantly: "You won't do it."

"?" Xie Yubai laughed, "So Are you sure I won't?"

He bent his waist and breathed in her ear, "Didn't I tell you before? Never underestimate a man's bad nature."

"Including you?"

"Including me."

After answering, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why? Am I not a man in the eyes of the lady?"

Although he said so, the expression on his face clearly said: Do you dare to deny it?

"That's not..." Shen Sui'an took the initiative to put her hand into his palm, rubbed it with her soft fingertips as usual, and smiled at him, "It's just that I completely believe in you."

Xie Yubai's love is just like him, unrestrained, unreserved and always partial, fierce and never ending.

Even if you don't get close, you can still feel the heat, not to mention being closest to the fire.

He will give her full respect and support all her decisions, just like he said at the beginning: he is her strongest backer, as long as she looks back, she can see him.

Compared with his personal desires, he hopes that she can be happy and do what she wants.

"I didn't expect that baby likes me so much..."

Undoubtedly, this sentence successfully pleased Xie Yubai.

His eyes were full of smiles, and he returned to his previous arrogant and unruly attitude.

Shen Sui'an's eyes stayed on his face for a few more seconds, and then smiled: "Well, I like Xiaobai the most."

No matter what his personality becomes, he is always her, the Xie Yubai who is always patient and gentle to her.

The fish was eventually cooked, but not eaten.

Because when Shen Sui'an was in a playful mood and insisted that Xie Yubai build a castle with her, the colorful fish changed its appearance in an instant.

The fish's body swelled, the scales on it became larger and denser, the fish's mouth opened wide, and there were a few more sharp teeth. Shen Sui'an even saw two legs growing from the fish's tail...

"..."

Before the fish could finish its transformation, the wind blew a ball of fire. The wind stopped, the fire went out, and only the burnt fish was left, and...

The tempting smell of meat...

"Hungry?"

It seemed that he knew Shen Sui'an too well, and he could read the meaning of a look.

Shen Sui'an nodded obediently, and at the end, he added: "It's all your fault. It would have been better if you just roasted it. Why did you have to roast it like this..."

"Didn't you just say you wanted to eat it?"

He squatted lazily, with his sleeves rolled up to his elbows, revealing his tight and cold white forearms, with smooth muscle lines and clear blue veins. His bony hands were bent to support his head, and he smiled casually.

"..."

Shen Sui'an looked at the half-built castle on the ground in silence, then glanced at something not far away, and paused, "Why don't you try it first?"

"..."

"Didn't you say that?" Shen Sui'an said, "You try it first, and then I'll eat it."

Xie Yubai seemed to have not heard her words, and his squatting posture became much more serious, and he continued his movements.

"Can't eat it?"

Shen Sui'an asked with a smile, as if he didn't understand the underlying meaning.

Xie Yubai sighed softly, his voice slightly helpless: "Baby, we can actually eat something better than this."

"For example-"

"For example..."

Before Shen Sui'an heard the familiar name of the dish, his ears were occupied by the loud sound of the waves, followed by the sound of breaking the sea...

The waves surged, turned into water droplets and hit the surroundings, smashing the castle that was half built into pieces. The man's hand froze in mid-air, and there were still some sand in his palm...

"..."

The arc of Xie Yubai's mouth gradually bent down, his eyes were deep, and it was impossible to see what he was thinking at the moment, but Shen Sui'an was sure that he was in a very bad mood...

Shen Sui'an tilted his head to look. Not far from them, a huge mutant octopus was staring at them grimly. Its dozen arms and tentacles kept throbbing and slapping the sea surface, causing large waves...

Chapter 126 It can only be her

Now the castle, which was originally smashed to pieces and only a small part was left, was completely soaked and turned into a pile of wet sand on the spot, without any chance of rescue...

"..."

Shen Sui'an: Σ()

She glanced at the man's expression, then at the octopus with its fangs bared, and suddenly an incredible idea came to her mind-

If there is no barbecue ingredients, will the grilled octopus still taste good?

The man beside her did not notice her thoughts for the time being. He stood up slowly, patted the sand on his hands slowly, raised his eyes slightly, and smiled, his aura was cold and wild.

"Roar——"

The mutant octopus roared, raised its thick tentacles and lashed at the two people, leaving a large splash of water when it left the sea...

Unfortunately, the splash did not fall as it expected, as if it had hit an invisible barrier and floated in the air in a stopped state. Several lightning bolts struck its tentacles accurately, and black smoke came out from the struck places, and a "sizzling" sound came from time to time.

"Roar, roar, roar!"

The octopus rolled in pain, and the sea surface was turned upside down by its huge body. The waves rolled up high, swaying left and right with the roar of the mutant octopus, like a tsunami.

Not only that, the creatures in the shallow waters were disturbed by the movement, and they crawled out of the sea and rushed to the shore frantically...

There were so many strange creatures, and some of them were so strange that you couldn't even tell what species they were.

Shen Sui'an took a look and then looked away.

It's better not to watch such scenes as they are a bit irritating and disgusting.

The tall and slender figure blocked her sight. Because of the position, she couldn't see the expression on the man's face. Only the flames swaying in the wind and the lightning that struck one after another showed his unhappy mood at the moment.

The other mutants were easy to deal with, just a matter of moving a finger, but the mutant octopus had a strong defense ability in its skin, and lightning could not kill it, and fire could not burn it...

Xie Yubai made an impatient "tsk" sound, and increased the strength of his hand. The lightning gathered into a ball and smashed towards the mutant octopus's head without any mercy.

The mutant octopus subconsciously raised its tentacles to block its face, and at the same time controlled its tentacles to stab Xie Yubai.

It seemed to be enraged, and its movements were fast and fierce. When its tentacles stretched out, they were sharp enough to cut through the air. It was discovered from a closer distance. There were many sharp little thorns on the two tentacles, and there were some disgusting, sticky, unknown things on them, and the color was particularly strange.

Xie Yubai frowned in disgust and said four words lightly: "Disgusting, want to vomit."

Shen Sui'an nodded with empathy, pinched his nose tightly, and said in a hushed voice: "It's irritating to the eyes and disgusting."

As they spoke, the two of them hid to the side tacitly.

The tentacles hit the ground heavily, stirring up a large amount of dust. Because the water droplets floating in the air were stuck together when they fell without external force, they fell back to the ground...

Pure blue ice crystals spread upward from the top of the tentacles inch by inch, and red flames attacked from the opposite side. When the mutant octopus blocked the flames, several purple lightning bolts struck its head from top to bottom...

"Crack, crack--"

Under the crisp sound, the frozen tentacles broke into pieces. I don't know if it was the influence of the ice crystals, but the mutant octopus seemed to be unaware of it. All the tentacles and tentacles on its body were used to resist the lightning bolts on its head.

But you can't defend against it twice.

The flames covered its entire body, and even though the octopus was in the water, the blooming sparks were not extinguished at all.

This was not quite what Shen Sui'an had thought before, because when the flames disappeared, the octopus turned coal black and smelled like burnt coal, without any trace of meat.

Shen Sui'an shrugged in disappointment.

Xie Yubai saw her little move and laughed again.

"..."

Shen Sui'an looked at him expressionlessly, and suddenly showed a death smile: "Is it funny?"

The man immediately stopped laughing: "...Not funny."

It was too chaotic here, with corpses of various mutant creatures lying together. Xie Yubai didn't even blink, and casually snapped his fingers. The flames swept in along the trajectory of the wind, and after leaving, the place was clean as before.

After cleaning up, he put tables, chairs and a rich variety of delicious food in the space...

All this happened in the blink of an eye. Perhaps because he was really hungry, Shen Sui'an's thinking slowed down a bit. He was stunned for a second and asked, "Do you have a lot in your space?"

"The porridge was cooked a few days ago, and the rest was packed in the past and has not been touched. There are quite a lot of portions, so there is no need to worry for the time being."

He put down the bowls and chopsticks, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Aren't you hungry? Why don't you come and eat? Why are you standing there like an idiot?"

"Oh oh."

Shen Sui'an was particularly satisfied with the meal.

After eating and drinking enough, this sea trip began.

In the not-so-big yacht, Shen Sui'an and Xie Yubai stood side by side, facing the salty sea breeze, she smiled happily: "Xiaobai, you are really a treasure chest, you even have this."

Xie Yubai's dark eyes drooped slightly, and his long eyelashes cast a layer of shadow under his eyes, making his eyes darker. When he smiled, the coldness of his eyebrows melted away, and it was all the flavor of warm spring: "I remember when you were eighteen, you said that it would be great if you had a ship of your own, it didn't need to be too big, just enough to carry us Let's sail across the sea together and see all the scenery on the sea."

"Do you still remember?"

"I remember everything you said."

Shen Sui'an let herself lean on his chest and squinted her eyes. "I always wanted to make enough money to travel around the world, but I never waited for that day..."

"But there is good news. My wish to see the sea with you has come true."

"Well... there is even better news. You and Xixi are here."

She is not a greedy person.

She doesn't care about many people or things; she doesn't care about many things; she doesn't think about many things and doesn't pray for many things.

She has a cold personality and she knew it early on.

She hates troubles, ties, and many people or things that can cause her to have greater emotional fluctuations...

Except for Xie Yubai and Cen Xi.

These two people are the most special.

Xie Yubai said "hmm", rubbed her head with his chin, and said after a while: "Just mention me, forget about her."

Compared to Shen Sui'an, Xie Yubai cares about fewer people.

Only her, it can only be her.

Shen Sui'an couldn't help laughing: "Are you jealous of Xixi?"

The man snorted from his nose: "Who asked her to compete with me for you."

"But by the way, was your relationship so bad before?"

She vaguely remembered that the two of them got along well before, and sometimes they could chat together, at least not like now.

"That's because you are here." Xie Yubai stated the facts lightly, "If it weren't for you, I would never know her in my life."

Of course, he believed that Cen Xi probably had the same opinion as him.

Chapter 127 Take Advantage of Me

Because of uncertain factors, the two did not go deep. Even if they did not go deep, they encountered many difficulties along the way.

There are many creatures in the sea, and even more mutant creatures in the ocean after the end of the world, and there are not a few aggressive ones.

The scene of the sea is different from what Shen Sui'an has seen before. The sea water is very blue, but it is not a normal blue. It is like blue ink, and you can't see the bottom of the sea clearly.

Shen Sui'an's mood is a bit complicated, and the smile on his face gradually fades, and he has lost the joy when he came.

The deep blue sea and the thick clouds cover the sun, just like the road, you can't see the way you came, and you can't see the way to the future.

The sound of water breaking rang in her ears, pulling Shen Sui'an back to her drifting thoughts, but this time, before Xie Yubai could make a move, she heard a clear voice first: "Hey, don't..."

Xie Yubai paused, raised his delicate eyebrows slightly, and seemed to be interested: "Can you talk?"

Shen Sui'an didn't understand the playfulness in Xie Yubai's eyes for a moment.

Her eyes shifted slightly and fell on the mermaid.

Blue curly hair, blue eyes, cold white skin, delicate and beautiful, lower body submerged in the sea water, upper body completely exposed...

Before Shen Sui'an finished reading, his eyes were covered by a warm hand, and Xie Yubai's voice warned him in his ears: "If you want to say something, retreat into the sea, don't show so much..."

The mermaid looked at him in confusion, but understood what he meant. She sank deeper into the water until her chin touched the sea water, then she stopped and asked weakly: "Is it okay now?"

Xie Yubai did not answer, but put down his watch to convey his meaning.

"A talking mermaid?" The lazy voice was very calm, without any surprise in it, "Is it a mutation?"

"Mutation?" The mermaid tilted his head. He looked like an adult, but he was unexpectedly innocent. "Do you mean like the companions in the sea?"

Shen Sui'an pulled his lip and looked down at him with an unclear look in his eyes: "You call them companions?"

"Yes."

The mermaid swung his tail, and ripples appeared on the water. He seemed to have found a fun game, and he did not speak lightly. Swinging around, "They are very cute, sometimes they will find food for me and play with me."

"Partners need to communicate with each other."

"?" As if she didn't understand what she meant, the mermaid tilted her head again in confusion, "They must communicate, otherwise how do they know what I'm thinking?"

Shen Sui'an rubbed her chin with her fingertips and smiled, "Really? Then they are pretty good."

"Yeah, yeah."

As if he had found a confidant, he was excited to get out of the sea, but... he didn't succeed.

He pushed his head up with all his might, but it was still the unbreakable barrier. His excitement wilted instantly, and only his blue eyes looked at Shen Sui'an brightly.

"..."

At that moment, Xie Yubai had only one thought - is grilled mermaid meat delicious?

Before his thought could take shape, Shen Sui'an lost interest and leaned into his arms and said, "Xiaobai, let's go back."

"Okay."

The mermaid looked at the cruise ship going farther and farther away, and his blue eyes were full of confusion.

Do they dislike him?

But his companions in the sea all like him...

He scratched his head, and went back into the sea without knowing why, and went to play with his companions.

This was just a small episode, and it did not have much impact on the two people who were playing.

Shen Sui'an only asked when the wind blew: "You seemed very interested at first, what do you want to ask?"

"I just feel surprised." He replied, "After all, it's the first time I've encountered a mutant that can speak."

Of course, the excitement disappeared in an instant.

Shen Sui'an nodded and didn't continue the topic.

But the journey was not smooth, and I was destined to rest here tonight.

The evening breeze blew, and the waves hit the rocks wantonly, making loud noises one after another.

The night was thick, and the dark clouds were dense, like a dark net, airtight.

Occasionally, the clouds were sparse, and the faint silver light danced on everything, which was a little weird with the occasional chirping of insects.

The two sat in the tent, chatting casually, looking at the sea surface that had fallen into the moonlight, like a broken mirror, reflecting the soft moonlight.

"Xiaobai, when I come back from the third district of Beizhou, I want to go to the thirteenth district of Nanzhou."

"Okay."

"Don't you want to ask me why?"

Her legs were bent, her elbows resting on her knees, her chin resting on them, and she tilted her head when asking questions, looking at him with gentle and clear eyes.

"Sui Sui." He moved closer to her, his tone cheerful, "I know you better than you think."

"Then guess what I'm thinking about now?"

"Thinking about--" He continued to move closer, his nose touching hers, and when he saw his shadow in her brown eyes, he spoke, "How to take advantage of me."

"..." Shen Sui'an paused, trying to look away, "You seem to be so frivolous every day."

Xie Yubai's palm clasped hers. He tilted his neck to stop her from moving, and even looked frivolous: "Don't you want to kiss me?"

Shen Sui'an opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, he felt a soft touch on his lips, and a deep and magnetic voice came out from the gap between their lips: "It's okay, I just want to kiss you."

Her current appearance undoubtedly gave him the greatest convenience. He easily broke into her territory, domineeringly declared his sovereignty, and sucked her lips and tongue.

The night was lonely, and the cool evening breeze was tainted with ambiguous factors. The temperature began to rise. Shen Sui'an only felt that the surroundings were very hot, indescribably hot.

He seemed a little different today, and the kiss was also different.

Passionate and eager, as if he urgently needed confirmation.

Shen Sui'an obediently closed her eyes, hooked her hands around his neck, and slowly began to respond to him.

A kiss, almost out of control.

The hot air from the disordered breathing sprayed on her collarbone, and the warm lips pressed against her skin, burning and scalding, and her heart trembled.

"Sui Sui."

He called her.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Her consciousness was blurred, and she was brought back to her thoughts by his hoarse voice in her daze.

"I don't know why, you are obviously by my side, but I feel you are so far away from me..."

His voice was low, his head buried in her neck, and his slightly arched back exposed his vulnerability.

After a while, he laughed again, his shoulders shaking twice, as if he was laughing at himself, "It's strange, isn't it? I don't know if it's because I've had too many dreams of reunion scenes after you left, or because I've heard too many stories of reunions after a long separation..."

"Every time I dream, it starts happily, then starts to feel lost, and then I watch you leave in despair, and finally wake up, the dim room is filled with an empty and cold atmosphere..."

Chapter 128 Zhuang Zhou Mengdie

Sadly, he was powerless, he could do nothing, nothing.

"And I will never find you again."

He hugged her tightly with his arms, as if he wanted to rub her into his bones and blood, so that they would never be separated again.

"These days, I have some memories in my mind that I have never experienced before. In my memory, I died again and again, and then I came back to life. I don't know why, but I am alive."

"I am alive, but I still don't see you."

"You are like the butterfly in Zhuang Zhou's dream. When you wake up, you will disappear without leaving me any extra reverie."

"In my memory, I miss you so much every day."

"I vaguely heard someone ask me: Is it worth it?"

"It's worth it, why not."

She is his lifelong obsession.

"It may be incredible and hard to accept, but the fact is that, year after year, I have left you and I don't even have the courage to live..."

But in the vague memory, he can't die.

He could only live under compulsion and accept all arrangements.

Then he rebelled...

What was the result of the rebellion?

He still has no impression.

He always felt that he succeeded, but it seemed that he did not succeed.

They have been with each other for nearly twenty years. No one knows each other better than them, and no one understands each other's warmth and heartbeat better than them on those lonely and difficult nights.

They have no one to love since they were young, and can only feel that there are still people who love them in this world through their urgent needs for each other.

The pain accumulated in those childhoods, whether deep or shallow, has left scars that are difficult to erase.

They all need time to heal.

Shall they give up?

How to give up?

How to give up?

He can't give up!

Just like flesh and blood, even if it is cut off, it will still grow new.

Is it obsession?

If yes, how can I let go of it? If not, how can I let go of it?

He finished speaking in an almost cold tone, followed by a long silence.

Shen Sui's crow-like eyelashes trembled slightly, and an indescribable bitterness surged in her heart.

Her arms were still around his waist, her lips moved, and she only called his name for a long time: "Xiaobai..."

She used all her strength to hug him, and then called: "Xiaobai."

This time she didn't say those general words of comfort, but just hugged him and called his name softly.

The soft voice gradually dissipated in the night, but it reached Xie Yubai's ears very clearly.

Xie Yubai muttered "hmm" in a muffled tone, and then nothing more happened.

He didn't know what to say, nor did he want to say anything. He just wanted to hold her like this, hold her...

Forever.

As soon as the word "forever" fell from his heart, he heard a loud "boom boom" from afar.

"..."

The scene was quiet for a moment, and then the sound became more intense.

When he let go of Shen Sui'an, Xie Yubai's face was particularly gloomy.

He felt that today was not suitable for "elopement" because this unnecessary trouble has been going on from the beginning to now...

Shen Sui'an glanced into the distance, but did not immediately pay attention to him. Instead, he asked him: "Are you feeling better?"

Xie Yubai drooped his eyelids, looking a little aggrieved, "If not, what are you going to do?"

Shen Sui'an's hands supported his arms for strength, and his lips were accurately pressed against his lips, and he let go after a few seconds, "coax you."

These two simple words made the corners of the man's mouth rise uncontrollably.

The originally suppressed and silent atmosphere was cracked by the loud noise, and began to collapse with a kiss, and the word "coax you" melted it.

He held her hand, lowered his eyes and smiled: "Okay."

In fact, he just wanted a sense of reality that "all this was not a dream he made."

Shen Sui'an saw the familiar smile on his lips and smiled too.

After he smiled enough, he spoke: "Always treat me like this, always like me."

She answered without hesitation: "Okay."

...

The one who made the loud noise was a mutant mouse, very big, like a small mountain in front of the two of them, without eyeballs, long and sharp teeth, and a thick and long tail. The next moment after seeing them, it swung out...

Then, it didn't take it back.

The thick and long tail was cut off from the root, lying alone on the ground soaked with blood.

The sharp cry died halfway through, and Shen Sui'an silently stepped back a few steps to avoid the stirred sand from flying on her.

Although the mutant mouse looked tall, it was very responsive. However, for Xie Yubai, it was just a matter of throwing a few more lightning bolts.

The flames filled the sky, tearing the dark night into a faint red light, swaying with the wind, and there were many floating shadows around.

The man stood by the flames, and the flames blurred his facial features and all the details, leaving only the outline of his figure.

He turned around and looked straight at her, then stepped forward with his slender legs and walked towards her step by step with glory.

In the silence, Shen Sui'an heard her own heartbeat.

"Plop-Plop-"

It seemed to jump out.

At that moment, she felt real.

In fact, it was not just Xie Yubai, she often had this feeling.

That illusory, unreal feeling.

Sometimes she wondered if this was just a dream of hers, and when she woke up, she would appear in that white room filled with disinfectant...

Is everything just a dream?

She was just a drop in the ocean, living a simple life, with her lover and friends by her side, and spending her life in peace.

Could there be a worse possibility?

She had died in a car accident, and everything that happened here was just a dream she had woven, a beautiful dream that she would never get out of...

But at this moment, it suddenly became unimportant.

There was a fiery red light dancing in her eyes. A little deeper, there was a tall and slender figure. Slowly, the blurred face became clear, until -

"What are you thinking about?"

A low voice with infinite attachment floated to her ears.

Shen Sui'an's eyebrows curved and smiled at him, not hiding his heart at all: "I miss you."

"Am I not here?"

He coughed lightly, his eyes flickered, and his eyes turned around and fell back on her, with an unconcealed smile on his lips.

She knew how to control him best and what to say to make him happy.

The fire behind him gradually extinguished, and the swaying shadow shrank back to its original body, waiting for the next moonlight to shine. The night around was even darker than at the beginning, so dark that the eyes could not adapt for a while.

When they were completely plunged into darkness, Shen Sui'an took the lead to hug his thin waist and whispered: "Xiaobai, stay here for a few more days."

No matter what, no matter whether everything here is real or not, no matter whether it is a dream or not, no matter those difficult problems, only focus on the present, only care about the present.

She just wants to be with him.

"Okay."

Not an unexpected answer.

But it is enough to make people happy.

【

Chapter 129 A Cut of Blood

In the next few days, the two threw away all the unformed guesses and ideas in their minds and enjoyed this trip wantonly.

The weather was unpredictable, sometimes the scorching sun rose high; sometimes it was overcast and stormy.

The two nestled in the tent, watching the silence and listening to the rustling rain, their hearts were very peaceful.

The sea water was still the color of dark blue ink, and it was not real under the only light. Big drops of water fell, splashing circles of ripples.

A rainy night should be safer than any other time, but this is the seaside, which adds a few unknown dangers.

However, Xie Yubai had set up a barrier around them in advance, so not only were there no mutants, but even the rain did not splash here.

The man put aside his usual indifference and vigilance, and quietly leaned on Shen Sui'an's shoulder to admire the rainy scene. His knuckles were playing with hers, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, showing that he was in a good mood.

Shen Sui'an lowered her eyes, and from this angle, she just saw the man's long eyelashes, high nose bridge, and clear outlines.

He was so well behaved now, his soft hair pressed against her neck, causing a very light numbness from time to time, not heavy, but extremely teasing.

"Xiaobai, let's go back tomorrow when the weather clears up."

Xie Yubai paused for a second, "Okay."

There was no more words for the whole night.

The next day, the weather was good.

Perhaps it rained last night, the air here has become a little fresher.

If it weren't for the fishy smell that still lingered in the air, Shen Sui'an almost thought that this place was normal.

As the off-road vehicle drove, the scenery here was left behind the car, gradually getting farther and farther, until even the small black dots could not be seen...

The way back was surprisingly smooth, and there were fewer zombies along the way.

Shen Sui'an lazily supported her head, and several pictures flashed in her mind. She tilted her head and asked: "Is the ice crystal fruit in the shock?"

Since returning from the north, Shen Sui'an has not forgotten this.

Or rather, she has never worried about this matter.

"It seems so."

Xie Yubai didn't have much impression either.

Shen Sui'an nodded his head in understanding and replied nonchalantly: "Let's talk about it when we get back."

**

Fu Sili returned to Nanzhou District 13 the day after Shen Sui'an and Xie Yubai left.

On the day of his departure, Fu Nanchuan did not see him off.

Fu Sili accepted this result very calmly.

After he left, life went on as usual without causing any disturbance.

The peaceful days did not last for a few days before they noticed something was wrong - Commander Xie was missing again.

Not only was he missing, but Shen Sui'an was also missing.

No one was surprised by Xie Yubai's "disappearance", but Shen Sui'an's "disappearance" caused dissatisfaction.

For example -

"How long has he been sitting here?"

Cen Xi looked at the boy sitting on the chair, with a lonely back and looking at the door of the villa from time to time, and asked the man beside him curiously.

Feng Jingchen pushed his glasses calmly and replied: "If I'm not wrong, it's three days."

"..." Cen Xi didn't know what expression to make, "Very patient."

After a pause, she asked: "Didn't you tell him?"

Every time Xie Yubai went out, he would never come back for ten days or half a month, and it felt that this time was no exception.

"I did." Cheng Yuan walked forward and spread her hands helplessly, "But he didn't listen, and sat there stubbornly waiting. Not only that, he also pulled Hua Xiaoyou over to wait with him."

"..."

At this moment, Hua Xiaoyou was pulled over and forced to sit on the stool and wait: "..."

She turned her head expressionlessly and looked at Jing Chen, and said in a faint tone: "You've had enough."

Jing Chen widened his eyes, "My sister was kidnapped, aren't you worried?"

Hua Xiaoyou rubbed Tun Tun and replied uncaringly: "If she doesn't want to, no one can make a decision for her."

"Also, didn't you say that she is very strong, so "You will not be bullied."

The boy scratched his hair irritably, "Do you think I worry about this? My sister went out with that man!!! What if that man did something to my sister?"

"She must be very helpless with no one around her."

"..."

Hua Xiaoyou was silent for a moment, and then spoke slowly, "First, no one can do it without her consent; second, she likes that person very much now; third, even if he did something, it was her acquiescence; finally, she will not give herself the opportunity to be helpless, and she will not fall into a helpless time."

This time it was Jing Chen's turn to be silent.

"You might as well not say anything, it's all the same."

He lowered his head in frustration and stared at the ground for a while, "Have you recovered your memory?"

"Not yet." Hua Xiaoyou shook her head, "Only some scattered fragments, it's not clear."

It was strange, the harder she tried to think, the less she could remember, even some of the memories she had would become blurred...

She was so scared that she didn't care at all.

It's better to let things take their own course.

Jing Qie said "Oh" in a low mood and didn't say anything else.

"By the way, did they take the ice crystal fruit for research?" Hua Xiaoyou tilted her head, "She will probably need the research results when she comes back."

"Of course I gave it to her. I will do my best to help my sister complete whatever she wants to do."

"That's fine."

She said, got up from the stool, and prepared to leave.

"Hey! Where are you going?"

"Go back to sleep." Hua Xiaoyou was speechless, "It's been three days. You are not tired, but I am."

Although she will never lack energy as long as there are plants, it does not mean that she does not need to rest.

She had had such a hard time sleeping these past few days, she had had enough of having a bed but not being able to lie down...

"What should I do if you leave?"

"...you leave too."

"But my sister hasn't come back yet..." he said sadly, "What if my sister leaves and doesn't want me anymore?"

"..."

Good guy, just because of this...?

"No."

Jing Jing's eyes lit up, and he listened to Hua Xiaoyou continue, "She will come back here, but as for whether she wants you? I'm not sure."

"............"

The knife cut blood.

He retorted unconvincedly: "Sister will not abandon me."

"If that's the case, then why are you hesitating here?"

"So that the first person Sister sees when she comes back is me." He raised his chin proudly, "I am the one who cares about Sister the most."

Hua Xiaoyou didn't want to talk to him at all.

"Oh, you continue, I'm going back."

Hua Xiaoyou's figure just disappeared, and a few more figures appeared at the door of the villa.

"Hey, you're all here, that's great." She asked with a smile, "Is Commander Xie back? I have something to tell him."

Jing Jing ignored the person who came, sat down and continued to wait.

Chapter 130 Rumors

"Not yet." Cen Xi stepped down the steps at the door, "Are the research results out?"

"Is it... right?" Qiao Yuqin paused for a moment, and the words on her lips circled around, "It can be considered to be out."

"?"

Seemingly seeing the doubts of several people, Zino explained: "The part that can be studied has been studied, as for the others, the conditions are not enough..."

It's not just the equipment problem, there are other His, such as those phenomena that are difficult to explain with science, such as situations that they may ignore because they don't understand them with their current cognition...

There are many uncertain factors, and they can only guarantee that the research results are not controversial for the time being...

"Do you know when Chief Xie will come back?" Qiao Yuqin glanced at the boy sitting on the chair, and a subtle doubt climbed up her eyebrows, but she didn't ask.

She had met this boy once.

At that time, he called Shen Sui'an sister...

"We never knew the whereabouts of the boss." Feng Jingchen shook his head and asked, "Did the boss ask you to research it?"

Yun Nanxuan, who had been invisible for a while, raised his paw: "Sister-in-law said so."

"An'an said so?" Cen Xi touched his chin and smiled, "Then don't worry, according to the time, he should be back soon."

Lin Xiayue: "Is there a difference?"

"Of course there is a difference." Cen Xi said as a matter of course, "My An'an is much more responsible than Xie Yubai."

As soon as the voice fell, a deep and magnetic voice sounded: "It's obviously my family."

They looked in the direction of the voice.

"Cenxi." The man was lazy, and his tongue brushed his back teeth, smiling, "Don't spread rumors outside."

"I'm talking about the facts..."

"Sister!"

The boy who was sitting on the chair in a daze because of boredom suddenly brightened his eyes, and appeared in front of Shen Sui'an like a gust of wind, with his bright eyes bent and staring at her straight. At that moment, it seemed as if she was his whole world.

The flattering meaning in his eyes was too obvious, which made Shen Sui'an stunned for a moment, and unconsciously raised her hand to touch his hair.

The startled eyes became brighter, like a big dog that had won a reward. If it had a tail, it would probably wag to the sky.

"Are you tired, sister? Do you want to take a rest?"

He naturally squeezed in between the two of them, calculated the angle to block Xie Yubai's sight, and smiled obediently, harmless as if he was a good child.

Xie Yubai's mouth twitched slightly, "..."

Is this a blatant provocation?

"There are some things that need to be understood." Shen Sui'an said, "Rest later."

"Oh..."

Just as he started to reply, he was grabbed by the collar and thrown aside. His obedient face suddenly turned into a grin, staring at the culprit viciously.

Xie Yubai seemed to have not seen it, and he took Shen Sui'an's hand and walked towards the living room, without looking back, saying, "Come in and talk."

Yun Nanxuan, who didn't find a chance to greet his idol, sighed a little disappointedly, and followed the others to the living room.

Jing Chen irritably said, "Why is he haunting me? I can't kill him. It's so annoying."

His voice was not rare. Yun Nanxuan, who was a little behind, moved his ears. He couldn't help but feel curious. He took a few steps on the spot. When the boy successfully appeared in his peripheral vision, he moved up.

Jing Chen moved aside a step to avoid his approach, and then looked at him vigilantly, "What are you doing?"

Ferocious.

Yun Nanxuan: "You seem to have strong hostility towards the boss, why?"

"Ha!" Speaking of this, the tone of shock was very bad, "Is this difficult to understand? If you have a sister who is very close to you and has a very good relationship with you, and suddenly one day she brings back a man and gives all the attention and care that originally belonged to you to that man, do you think you will feel good? Will you not have hostility towards that man?"

"..."

Yun Nanxuan choked.

It is undeniable that this question really asked him.

"But..."

He tried to retort, "If I really had a sister, I would hope that she could be happy every day."

"If the man she brought back was someone she liked, and if that man also liked her, I, I..."

He racked his brains for a long time, but couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart, "I might think that man is not worthy of her."

That's his sister...

After saying that, he added : "But if it's the eldest brother, I shouldn't have any difficulty accepting it."

"?" Jing Chen's face gradually softened after hearing the previous words, and sank at a speed visible to the naked eye after hearing the last part, "Is there any difference between the two?"

"Of course there is." Yun Nanxuan said, "The eldest brother is the person I admire most, and so is my sister-in-law. The two of them are a perfect match, okay?"

"What a match!"

Jing Chen threw down a sentence expressionlessly and walked away.

The people who followed the man seemed to have poor brains, and the logic they understood at the beginning was all wrong.

His sister is the best in the world, no one can compare to her, and no one can match her.

The man just caught her eye for a while, and she will definitely get tired of him after a while...

**

Living room.

Qiao Yuqin put the research report on the table and pushed it in front of Xie Yubai and Shen Sui'an, "Let's talk about the problem of zombie eggs first."

"Zombie eggs are not the product of zombies. Anyway, according to the experiments I have done, whether it is ordinary zombies or high-level zombies, we have not found anything similar to zombie eggs in their bodies."

"So we guess that it may be artificially cultivated."

The living room was extremely quiet, and everyone's face was extremely solemn.

Qiao Yuqin continued: "I believe everyone knows about the strange zombies that have appeared near District 7 recently. Each strange zombie has its own active area, and there must be a spiritual crystal core and a wrapped zombie egg beside it."

"The spiritual crystal core was broken, and although the energy that leaked out was not much, it could completely reduce or cover up the damage. The existence of this zombie; and if the zombie egg is not found, it may develop and mature. As for whether the zombie egg becomes the nutrition of the weird zombie, or the weird zombie becomes the nutrition of the zombie egg, it is unknown. "

"But only humans can do all this."

"Because the zombie egg was dead when I was studying it, many things about the zombie egg are unknown. All of this is based on the descriptions and guesses of survivors who have seen zombie eggs. "

"First, whether it is a mature zombie egg or an immature one, they all have a set of abilities to sense the presence of humans, whether it is body temperature or smell. When they sense humans, it is as if they have touched a switch, and then they start to get agitated..."

"The purpose is to guide us to kill it, or to make us become its kind."

"Second, if the zombie egg is eaten by mistake or penetrates the skin, it will instantly turn into a zombie, and it will turn into a zombie in a few seconds..."

"Third, I detected a kind of energy in the dead zombie egg, which is very weak and cannot be detected for the time being."

It was silent all around, as if the air flow rate had slowed down.

Shen Sui'an leaned lazily on the back of the chair, raised her eyelids, and flipped through the research report. When she saw the three words "Ice Crystal Fruit" on it, her fingertips paused slightly, and she tilted her head to look at Jing Chen, who was lying on the table and staring at her boredly.

When their eyes met, Jing Chen seemed to know what she meant, nodded at her, and smiled warmly.

Shen Sui'an's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her brown eyes drooped as she looked at the research report on it, with Qiao Yuqin's voice still ringing in her ears.

"Finally, there is one more thing about the zombie eggs. We saw three scratches on the black box."

"Three scratches?" Cheng Yuan was no longer surprised by the biased plot. "What kind of scratches? Were they made by zombies? Or were they made by humans?"

Lin Xiayue put the box on the table at the right time and pushed it to the center.

The three scratches on the black box were particularly obvious. After observing for a while, a strange emotion surged in their hearts.

Feng Jingchen: "I prefer it to be made by humans."

"Whose zombie is so considerate to make such three smooth scratches?" Cen Xi laughed, "So are these three scratches reminding us of something?"
