MTL - Traveling To The Last Days To Protect You-Chapter 60
Ye Xiao turned his head and met a pair of round and shiny puppy-like eyes, full of joy and admiration, his anger subsided, and he was a little... sorry.
He lowered his head, covered his lips and coughed pretentiously, while thinking about whether he had acted too aggressively just now. Lin talked about this snail attribute and now he is very vigilant, always paying attention not to let his behavior cross the line.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a group of people staring at the two of them, and he put on a straight face: "What are you doing standing there, you haven't finished your work today."
Everyone dispersed immediately and continued to help count the supplies or guard the supplies cart.
Only then did Ye Xiao talk to Lin Tantan, "Just now, I'm sorry for implicating you."
Lin Tantan shook her head: "Actually, I didn't feel offended. That sentence was just a cruel sentence with no meaning. If it was more excessive, I would take action to teach him a lesson myself." She smiled and rolled her eyes, " But I'm still very happy that you stood out for me, thank you Ye Xiao, you were very handsome just now."
Ye Xiao's eyes flickered slightly: "Really?"
"Yeah." Lin Tantan nodded vigorously. She was very regretful that she didn't bring a mobile phone camera or something to take a picture of the scene just now. Well, even if she did, it's not suitable to take it out. She can only open her eyes and use her own eyes It was firmly recorded. Fortunately, the memory of the supernatural beings is very good.
She suddenly thought of one thing. There are too many regrets like this. She always regrets that such and such scenes cannot be recorded. If she can draw, she will draw it as soon as possible.
But she doesn't know how to draw, so if she has a chance to learn, let Jiang Xiaotian get her a black-tech camera, which she wears every day and is ready to record at any time.
Uh, wouldn't that be too perverted?
She couldn't help but think about it, and her expression became a little strange. Ye Xiao didn't know what she was thinking, but her ears still felt a little hot. Could it be that there is a turning point? He thought about it and said: "It's nothing to say, if it's just for me, it's fine to listen to it, but he pointed at you..."
Still racking her brains for words, Lin Tantan said, "I understand, I understand!" She had an expression that I understood, "It's okay to target you, but not to target brothers, I understand, if it was Mei Mei and the others, you will be angry too, right!"
Ye Xiao: "..."
Ye Xiao wiped his face: "Yes."
Brother or something, so that's how she defines their relationship? Ye Xiao felt like vomiting blood for the first time.
Lin Tantan thought, ah, her male **** is so warm and protective, I feel even more handsome! No, I can't continue talking, or I will be seen through as foolish. She said: "Suddenly I remembered that I left the patient halfway. I couldn't finish the New Year's Eve dinner. I also came here to see it. It's time to go back now."
Look at the time, it's less than three o'clock, and there is still a lot of time. Although the patients who have already been assigned to her number have been assigned to others, there are dozens of them. Yes, after all, the ones that can be placed in her hands are the most serious ones.
Ye Xiao frowned slightly: "Now?"
When the mutated plant raid happened just now, he didn't trust her to act alone.
Lin Tantan said: "Don't worry, the shanty town is far away from the mountain, near the city wall, and there are no plants around, so nothing will happen. Even if something happens, I have the power to protect myself."
"Don't talk nonsense." Ye Xiao was a little helpless. After thinking about it, he agreed. He began to search for who was around her. A Jiang Zhongyi was not enough to make people feel at ease. Those bodyguards couldn't talk much before the real danger. .
After thinking about it, he suddenly felt that his manpower was too small, and he could really be trusted, rather than relying on employment relationships, people who work together today and may break up tomorrow. Such people, even powerful supernatural beings, could he be relieved if they were placed beside Lin Tantan? But he obviously couldn't be by her side all the time.
Ye Xiao's heart suddenly sank.
Seeing that he hadn't spoken for a long time, Lin Tantan asked, "Ye Xiao?"
Ye Xiao came back to his senses: "I'll take her to that shanty town."
"no thanks."
"I have to go and see the environment to be reassured."
Lin Tantan couldn't hold back him, so he could only agree. When he got to the place, Ye Xiao frowned again. Indeed, it didn't look like there would be mutated plants, but the environment was too bad, much worse than yesterday's one, even though he tried his best to find a clean, flat and dry place. A row of folding awnings is also neat and clean, but the people and their families who came to wait for the doctor are all really messy and messy.
In such an environment...
If he were to manage it, no one would live in such an environment. Naturally, no matter what, Lin would not be allowed to talk about going in and out of this kind of place every day.
He suddenly thought of Zhou Yan's contemptuous and sneering eyes, and thought of that unknown person who dared to jump out and utter wild words so that Lin Tantan was offended, so he couldn't help but clenched his hands.
He left silently, and even that Xu Tianjin just looked at him casually and let it go.
Bai Cheng noticed Ye Xiao's strangeness, and raised his eyebrows, thinking that he has come back from being deflated again?
He was very used to Ye Xiao's repeated battles and defeats. Although this person was the first among them to find the one he liked, he felt that it would be very difficult for him to get out of the order first.
So he didn't take it seriously, and came to ask: "It's about the same as I estimated. There are about 500 tons of grain and many living materials. What are you going to do with it?"
Five hundred tons of grain is not a lot, but it is enough to feed a million people for several days. If the number of people is reduced, it can last longer.
Ye Xiao suddenly asked: "How many supernatural beings are planted at present?"
Bai Cheng was slightly surprised, but still quickly replied: "In the entire base, as far as I know, there are currently more than a thousand wood-type supernatural beings, of which the ability is in the direction of planting, accounting for about two-thirds."
"Too few." Ye Xiao looked up at the messy and desolate parking lot where all kinds of good and bad vehicles were parked, and then at the base farther away, those chaotic buildings.
"Going out today, I saw that all the fields were flooded, and it was impossible to harvest a single crop." Although there were not many crops in the fields in winter, this result still cut off the hope of many people. Few people think that they can go to the fields after leaving the base, or go farther.
"The grain reserves in Ning City have been exhausted, and only the last small granary remains untouched. Do you think all the grain reserves will last for a few days?"
Bai Cheng's expression also faded: "Within a month, the base will be in chaos. But it will be chaos for a while. Those who survive can always find their own way of survival. There will always be food in the city, but this city does not. The next city also has it, and the national granary can still support the people of the whole country for two or three years, not to mention the sharp drop in population now... If not, you can still dig wild vegetables and hunt wild food. Aren’t mutant animals edible? There should be edible mutant plants , and when it stabilizes, we can restart production.”
He is not worried about the future at all, but the current food crisis facing the Ning City base is indeed an insoluble problem, so some people even hope that the flu will be more severe and take more lives, and those who survive will be able to recover. Get more survival resources.
They originally planned to stand on the sidelines. If the crisis breaks out sooner or later, and a group of people are destined to die, then there is no difference between this group of dead and sick people and the other group. People are more beneficial.
After all, people who get sick generally have poorer physique. Of course, it is not absolute. Those who live in good houses, those who do not have to go out to make a living in rainy days, and those who have sufficient food and warm items are not easy to get sick.
In short, this is a very cruel choice.
But Lin Tantan wants to save people.
So Ye Xiao went to talk to Lu Jianping after thinking about it, and Lu Jianping was persuaded—if these patients can survive, their survival competitiveness will be stronger than that of people who have never been sick. There is evidence for this. The physical fitness of the people will be strengthened, just look at those in the Yangshi motorcade who were cured by Lin Tantan after getting sick, and you will understand, not to mention, the probability of giving birth to people with supernatural powers is higher among the sick group.
If it wasn't for this reason, Lu Jianping would not have been able to invest in manpower in vain if he only talked about love for his compatriots.
Ye Xiao was silent for a long time before finally saying: "We will keep 100 tons of the 500 tons of grain, and leave the rest to Lu Jianping. I will discuss the use with him."
Bai Cheng looked up at him, he was not surprised to leave it to Lu Jianping, it was better than to let Li Qun stir up the wind and rain, but... "Keep a hundred tons? Will it be too much?"
"To recruit some people, supernatural beings and ordinary people are fine, with equal emphasis on ability and character. Healing and planting-oriented supernatural beings are the key points, and patients with potential are also welcome, expensive and not expensive..."
Ye Xiao spoke slowly, but Bai Cheng's eyes became brighter the more he listened, but he acted calmly: "Why did you suddenly change your mind, didn't you say you want to go back to the capital?"
"I can go back to the capital and have a look on my own. It doesn't affect these things. It's not what we should do when we look at all this with cold eyes, right?" Ye Xiao smiled. He broke free from something that had been faintly imprisoning him all this time, "I was the one who wanted to kidnap."
He wholeheartedly wanted to go back to the capital. If he hadn't been trapped by the heavy rain, he might have left long ago. The Ning City base was never the place he planned to stay for a long time, and it was far away from the capital. He didn't know how many dangers he would encounter. It is impossible to bring too many people, so simply don't want any extra.
However, today's incident suddenly made him understand, if he can't stretch his hands and feet in this small base, how much can he do if he goes to the capital; There are more big shots, so how much pressure should there be?
He doesn't care about it himself, but he can't bear the wronged people around him.
If you are not strong enough, how can you protect the people you want to protect? Personal strength is far from enough. In this era, if you don't have your own forces, you will always be underestimated.
He said to Bai Cheng: "Old Bai, maybe holding our own power in our hands is the real way for us to gain a foothold."
Bai Cheng thought to himself thank God that you finally figured it out, but what made him suddenly come to such a realization?
He thought about it, thought of the conflict just now, and then he vaguely understood his attitude towards Ye Xiao.
It's embarrassing to be provoked by a group of young people in front of your sweetheart, but it's even more unbearable to watch your sweetheart get angry at the other party, right?
There was Zhu Xin in the past, but now it’s Li Qun’s faction. Let’s spread out. If there are people with more energy in the future, or when I can’t see it, whoever runs in front of her to boss her around, or even hurt her, think about it. Explode?
