Before returning, it was inevitable to purchase the crystal cores from the minds of superpower users. Even though Bai Xiqin never absorbed these crystal cores, she still collected them into her space.
They might co in handy in the future.
The black car sped down the road. The journey was anything but smooth; the dilapidated car rumbled along, just like the way it ca, carrying a thick scent of blood.
The sumr sunset didn’t bring any coolness; it remained unbearably hot, leaving one inexplicably irritable.
Fortunately, they quickly arrived at the Yunhua Safety Base. Just thinking about being able to take a cold shower after returning alleviated much of the anxiety.
It was only because Bai Xiqin had space that she could casually decide when to take a bath.
Clean, unpolluted water resources remained scarce, and unless absolutely necessary, people rarely drank water from uncertain sources.
Fearing that zombie viruses were present in those water sources, getting infected would be disastrous.
In Bai Family’s space, there was Spiritual Spring water, and with Bai Xiqin and Liu Jing as Ice Ability Users, and Bai Zhengxuan as a Water Ability User, they used water and ice without restraint.
"If you run out, co to the black market to find . I’m always there selling at!"
After Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai got off the car, the butcher waved at them with a laugh as they said goodbye.
The trunk of the black car was once again filled to the brim with at.
Bai Xiqin personally saw the butcher and the chef carrying it out from a room.
It was frozen at; she didn’t know when they got it or when the owner of the at had died.
Bai Xiqin did know that she saw a human eyeball fall out from that pile of at.
In short, the source of this at wasn’t clean, much like the crystal cores in the minds of the superpower users.
These things couldn’t really be stopped, because the buyers, they undoubtedly guessed what kind of at this was, and just chose to play dumb.
All they wanted was to have a full al, to satisfy their cravings.
The feeling of hunger was truly unbearable!
One willing to give, one willing to take.
Even if the butcher was eliminated today, others would stand up to sell these questionable ats for profit!
This matter was more suitable for the Base Commander to handle.
Bai Xiqin shook her head; the affairs of the apocalypse couldn’t possibly be managed completely. All she could do was protect her own family, and do so things within her capability.
The premise is, she had to eliminate the safety hazards for her family.
"Let’s go!"
Bai Xiqin sighed and walked with Leng Yebai toward the direction of the bus.
From afar, Bai Xiqin saw a family chatting and laughing as they had a barbecue on an open ground.
The Base Commander and Bai Anhai stood in front of the grill, occasionally turning the skewers to prevent them from burning.
The rich aroma perated the open ground, and if it weren’t for the Base Commander personally overseeing the area,
anyone daring to openly eat such strong-slling barbecue at the safety base could expect to be robbed!
With the Base Commander personally grilling here, passersby could only take a deep breath and then leave pretending nothing happened.
The Base Commander was a man capable of killing a bunch of zombie dogs, and people found him quite intimidating.
Even the old n Wang and Liu weren’t afraid of the Base Commander coming to collect debts, happily sitting on small stools skewering at with Bai Zhengxuan.
After knowing Leng Yebai and the Base Commander had a blood relationship, the old n Wang and Liu were completely reassured.
Now everything was fine, all were family, so no matter past or future, the Base Commander would feel too embarrassed to ask them to pay for damaging the base’s public resources, right?
This ti they genuinely brought back a sack full of crystal cores, directly carrying it onto the bus.
Now they could unashadly dine for free, deciding to eat more—though in reality, they never ate less each ti!
In so sense, the two old n were remarkable individuals as well.
While they didn’t pay debts, they were more generous than anyone when it ca to paying with crystal cores for free als!
Liu Jing and Wang Yiyun’s tasks were simple, just sitting in their chairs dazing off.
Bai Yifan, on the other hand, wiped the brought out table spotlessly clean and made so small dishes like crayfish on the bus as snacks.
The Base Commander said nothing, nor did Leng Yebai, and the Bai Family treated this al as the first al after the father and son reunited.
Naturally, it had to be grander.
"Son, daughter-in-law, you’re back! Co over here, it’s almost ti to eat!"
The Base Commander, with great skill, sprinkled so chili powder onto the beef skewers, while others were brushed with so Orleans marinade.
As soon as Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai stood in front of the bus, the Base Commander handed them each a at skewer.
The first batch was out of the grill, sizzling with aroma!
The red beef skewers in Bai Xiqin’s hand were generously sprinkled with chili powder and cumin.
The beef skewers in Leng Yebai’s hand were brushed with Orleans sauce, without any chili powder.
In less than a day, the Base Commander had fully understood the preferences of his son and daughter-in-law.
"Thank you!"
Bai Xiqin smiled at the Base Commander, taking small bites of the beef skewer.
Leng Yebai didn’t say anything, just silently clutching the beef skewer, lost in thought.
"No need to be so polite, we’re all family, just let know what you want to eat, and I’ll grill it for you!"
The Base Commander grinned, showing a perfect row of eight teeth.
These days, it’s not easy for young n to marry a wife.
His son finally found one on his own, so as a father, he certainly approved with both hands and feet!
The Base Commander turned into a barbecue stall owner, wholeheartedly grilling.
Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai had no chance to lend a hand because the Base Commander kept handing them skewers.
Afraid they wouldn’t have enough to eat.
The sun set in the west.
The sun gradually descended.
The little puppy rescued by Bai Yifan began joyfully running around after drinking Spiritual Spring water, looking adorably clumsy.
"Xiao Niu! Xiao Niu! Where are you!"
A girl’s anxious voice rang out.
The little white dog barked twice toward the direction where the girl’s voice ca from.
"Woof woof!"
I’m here!
The little white dog didn’t rush over, just stood there barking continuously.
The barbecue aroma was just too tempting; the little white dog was reluctant to leave.
"Do you have an owner?"
Bai Yifan looked regretfully at the little white dog, he was hoping to adopt it!
The little white dog rubbed against Bai Yifan’s pant leg, its tail wagging happily, still barking toward the direction of the girl.
The food was good, but it still preferred its owner!
Soon, a frail girl ran toward this direction.
The girl wore a slightly worn white dress, looking shabby but cleanly washed.
Her hair, ssed up by the wind, hung to her waist, ssy yet giving off an unruly beauty.
Her delicate little face was fair, filled with a scholarly air, clearly a quiet girl.
"Xiao Niu, why aren’t you behaving!"
The girl imdiately spotted the puppy barking at her and quickly trotted over to scoop the puppy into her arms.
"Sorry, this is my dog, I..."
The girl’s face flushed slightly, looking a bit embarrassed.
In the apocalypse, animals were no longer called pets but reserve food.
Many would consider taking others’ animals as food, sotis without proof, and few would return such potential food with just a word.
The thin, petite girl timidly stood there holding her dog, appearing sowhat uneasy.
