Do you remember Liao Yong? Xia Kai asked after a slight silence.
"Remember, didn't he leave with Rentian, Rencheng and the others a long time ago? Why do you mention him?" Wang Qirui asked in confusion.
"Xitang is Liao Yong's hometown. He was worried that his wife and children were anxious to return to Xitang, so he and Ren Tian went to the Chongzhou Safety Zone to find a way to return to their hometown. Later, we saw Ren Tian bringing people back to look for trouble, but we never saw Liao Yong and Ren again. Cheng, have you ever thought about what happened to him later?" Xia Kai asked.
"How's it going?" Wang Qirui asked subconsciously, although he didn't necessarily want to know the answer.
"When I went to the Chongzhou Safety Zone to inquire about the news, I met Liao Yong. He was blind in one eye and had a broken leg, and he was cleaning the official public canteen." Xia Kai said with a depressed expression.
"How...how did he end up in that situation?" Wang Qirui asked sadly.
"After they arrived in the safe zone, Ren Tian and Ren Cheng joined the army, and Liao Yong joined a civilian team returning home. As soon as they walked out of the safe zone, they were attacked by powerful monsters. The only person in that team was Liao Yong. One person escaped back relying on the skills he had learned and the weapons in his hands, while the others died outside." Xia Kai said in a calm tone.
"Liao Yong was too anxious and left too early. If he were with us, he might be able to reunite with his wife and children by now." Wang Qirui said with some pity.
"Arui, it's all thanks to Sister Rong that we can reach this point today. Otherwise, do you think we will be any different from Liao Yong? Sister Rong has given us favors, and we reciprocate with loyalty and obedience. This is our How to get along with each other, Sister Rong can follow whichever way she wants, and accept whomever she wants to accept, do you think you can do it?"
Although Sister Rong is easy-going and usually doesn't care much about things, she is the one who decides all the important things that the team encounters. Her principles and bottom lines cannot be tested. Cui Lie didn't understand Rong Xianxian's attitude before. His approach was against the wishes of Rong Xianxian, and he was later sent to stop the enemy alone. If Cui Lie hadn't been so capable, how could he have escaped unscathed that time?
What's Cui Lie's position in the team? What is Wang Qirui's status?
"Kaikai, you are not trying to scare me. We have developed a close friendship along the way. Sister Rong shouldn't be so unkind, right?" Wang Qirui said with a reluctant smile.
"Arui, if you have to deceive yourself like this, I advise you to be ready to leave." Xia Kai felt very disappointed. He had said this. If Wang Qirui still didn't take it seriously, there was nothing he could do.
"It's not like we asked her to join our team, we just took her with us by the way. Our hometown will arrive soon, and we will put her down when we get there. I will protect her along the way, so you don't have to worry." Wang Qirui was stubborn. said.
"I advise you not to take chances. Once you take this step, there is no turning back." Xia Kai persuaded you for the last time.
Wang Qirui's attitude was firm and he had no intention of letting go.
"..." Xia Kai shook his head and smiled bitterly, that's all. They all said that it's hard to persuade the devil with good words, and it was true.
Wang Qirui's talent is quite good, and his realm broke through to the Chongmai realm in the early days of the apocalypse. Although he did not obtain the spiritual weapon, he had the spirit storage talisman, diamond talisman, and speed talisman allotted to the team members by Rong Xianxian. Wang Qirui's overall combat power was good. Therefore, he was somewhat unconvinced by Rong Xianxian's preference for Jiang Jie and Wang Lin.
The two returned to the dining room. Che Miaomiao was looking over here. When she saw Wang Qirui coming back, she immediately broke into a bright smile. Seeing Xia Kai's expression was cold, she couldn't help but asked anxiously, "Xiao Rui, can I give it to you?" You're causing trouble, if you, you can't make the decision, I, please take me to see the person in your team who can make the decision..." Che Miaomiao's eyes were full of begging.
"Sister Miao Miao, don't think too much, but can you just come with us?" Wang Qirui raised his head and looked around. He didn't know where the waiter had gone.
"Of course, I'll go and tell the boss, pick up your things and leave." Che Miaomiao said excitedly.
"Then you eat first, I'm going to pack things right away." Che Miaomiao stood up quickly and said as she saw that there was still a lot of food on the table.
Xia Kai kept silent while eating. Wang Qirui looked at him but hesitated several times, and finally just started eating.
"Miaomiao, why are you back at this time? Aren't you on the day shift?" When Che Miaomiao returned to the rows of low huts in the backyard of the hotel, several sisters on the night shift asked curiously.
"I met a neighbor from my hometown, and I'm going to leave Xitang with him." Che Miaomiao said with some pride.
"Neighbor, are you reliable? We come to work here to meet the important people in this safe zone, not to take risks outside the safe zone. Don't be fooled!" A woman who was painting her eyebrows said casually. .
"Yes, yes, there are many dangers outside the safe zone, and even if we leave Xitang, where will this world be different?" Someone else echoed.
"It's different, he is going to the capital." Che Miaomiao's eyes flashed.
"Hiss." After hearing her words, the woman who had just drawn her eyebrows slipped her hand and the eyebrow pencil poked the corner of her eye.
"Really? Last time I heard from the mercenary team from the capital that the water and electricity had been restored, the schools had been restored, there were processing factories, and farms were planted. There was a shortage of manpower everywhere, the prices were low, and the welfare guarantees were also special. Well, I heard that you can get enough food just by doing any work over there." One of them screamed.
"What a fuss. The large army that entered the city yesterday was going to the capital. Many of our famous private caravans in Xitang will follow the large army to the capital this time. But you have to think about it. The expedition teams that leave the city every day , The caravan will not die one day, if there is no reliable person to protect it, I advise you not to act rashly." The thrush woman said with a sneer.
The few women who were about to move just now were a little discouraged after hearing her words, but Che Miaomiao was unmoved and was still packing her things quickly. The capital not only has low prices, but also has fully restored infrastructure. There are plenty of job opportunities, a complete welfare system, and a plan under preparation. Because the capital is gradually resuming planting and processing factories, there is a serious shortage of labor. Now plans are being made to expand the outer city. In order to attract the population, a policy is being prepared. Those who arrive in the capital before the construction of the outer city is completed will automatically settle in and become settled residents, and can enjoy various preferential policies in the capital.
She heard about this incident while serving in the highest-end private room of the restaurant. She buried the matter deep in her heart and never mentioned it to anyone.
