After a brief period of astonishment, the fellows formally met Bai Zhi one by one. They were all cautious and did not dare to express their anger, as if they were not facing a living person, but a thin shell of glass that could be blown to pieces if they breathed heavily.
"Do I look that fragile?" Bai Zhi asked the relatively familiar Chen Baiyuan.
Chen Baiyuan shook his head and said with a smile: "You are not fragile at all, but you can't stop us from being afraid. I don't believe they were not afraid when they first knew that you were the same kind."
The three of them knew that Bai Zhi was of the same kind when Bai Zhi took stabilizer under Wang Chengpeng's gun. Bai Zhi didn't notice their reaction at that time, but afterwards these people, including Yue Dongting who was not here today, acted as if they didn't take it seriously.
Bai Zhi raised her head and looked at Zhang Tianzhao smiling. The difference between the same kind and the same kind was actually quite big.
Zhang Tianzhao lowered his head and held her hand without saying anything. He had always been afraid. The stone hanging in his heart only fell to the ground when Mian Ning was born and mother and son were safe. She could get pregnant and give birth to healthy children, and she finally evolved from a semi-finished product into a stable new species. He no longer had to worry that she would collapse the next second.
"Hey, it's immoral for you two to show off your affection like this." Lin Yunlai pointed to a round table by the window and said, "Go over there and let Boss Chen prepare a set meal for you two. After lunch, go shopping. "
The blinds of the window were open, and bright light fell on the light brown tablecloth. A set of three glass cruets sparkled on the table, and there was also a small pot of green plants, which looked a bit like before the apocalypse. A small restaurant that sells sentiment is no different.
Chen Baiyuan didn't even give them a menu, but directly brought them two glasses of water, barbecue steak, lettuce salad and a basket of bread, and then went back to the crowd with a box of wine.
"It's a bit awkward for you to eat with me while they're drinking." Bai Zhi kneaded a bun. Zhang Tianzhao seemed to have never drank in the past two years.
Zhang Tianzhao calmly cut the steak and whispered: "You are the most mellow wine in the world. I drink you and that's enough."
Bai Zhi tore open the bread, stuffed a small piece into her mouth, and whispered: "The nausea has reached a new level."
"It's far worse than the two naughty kids. Xiaoshan immediately led our son astray." Zhang Tianzhao handed her the plate with the steak.
There are only seven or eight standard mahjong-sized pieces of meat in the small white porcelain plate. The shapes and colors are beautiful and they look delicious. Bai Zhi looked embarrassed, "I'll finish this piece of bread first."
Yun Lai jumped over at an astonishing speed, "Are you willing to stop eating again? A Zhao, you don't know if you made your wife angry?"
Zhang Tianzhao recalled the people and things that might make his wife unhappy, and said seriously: "I will send that secretary back when I get back. Don't worry about the girl I met on the road. In fact, I only dealt with her brother a few times. Next The next time a girl is present, I will definitely say when I leave that I want to go home to be with my wife, okay?"
Zhang Tianzhao's voice was not too soft, but it was extremely groveling and spineless.
The fellows all laughed in low voices. This lucky guy was the only one among them to find a partner. Those who have strict wives should not be too happy.
"It's just that the barbecue steak is not to my taste. Don't be nervous, you two." Bai Zhi simply put down her knife and fork, "The girl I met by chance doesn't know that you are married, so I don't mind."
With a clang, the door of the tavern was pushed open again. The girl who had just met by chance came in holding another girl's arm, her cheeks were flushed, and she looked at Zhang Tianzhao warmly and affectionately, completely ignoring the handsome guys in the room and the beauties around her target.
The man behind the two girls is about thirty years old and has the same beautiful eyes as the girl. He strode towards Zhang Tianzhao and said with a smile: "We just found a place to eat, and it's a coincidence that we met an acquaintance here."
Lin Yunlai whistled at the two girls, and excitedly slipped back to get the wine bottle and switch to movie-watching mode. Hai Fengqiu turned to face them watching the show with a plate of small walnuts. The crackling sound of peeling walnuts was not loud, but it was very regular.
"We just found a place to eat." Zhang Tianzhao stood up and shook hands with him, "Let me introduce, this is my wife Gu Baizhi. Bai Zhi, this is Gao Zheng. I asked him to buy the handful of leeks you like so much. .”
Bai Zhi said nothing, and nodded and smiled at the Gao brothers and sisters as a greeting. Facing the bold and passionate eyes of Gao's sister, from her perspective, being polite is enough, not being too polite.
The public security in the East China Sea has always been very good, and the pre-apocalyptic traditions have been well maintained. It is not uncommon for a man to introduce his wife in a serious manner. Gao Zheng was just stunned for a moment and nodded to Zhang Tianzhao's wife as a greeting.
"This is a very nice place. If you don't mind, can we share a table here? I have something to talk to you about." Gao Zheng pulled out two chairs for the ladies to sit on as he spoke. He himself sat down on the other side of Zhang Tianzhao and discussed with Zhang Tianzhao about joining a group to go to a cave to find mutant plants.
The city hall of Donghai City has offered a high reward for mutant plants. The Gao family siblings and several of their friends knew a cave where many mutant plants lived, but to get there they had to pass through the territory of a large group of fire-type mutant spiders. Gao Zheng knew that Zhang Tianzhao was an ice power user and strongly invited him to go with him. He sincerely offered Zhang Tianzhao one-fifth of the total reward.
Zhang Tianzhao smiled and rejected him, "I work for the city hall, so I can't take on private work."
"Spiders? Are they all mutated?" Bai Zhi couldn't help but say, there is no such thing as too many wrist bags. Now that she has encountered the spider silk, she doesn't want to miss it.
"They are all mutated. There may be two to three hundred of them." Gao Zheng was stunned again when he met Bai Zhi's shining eyes. Mutated insects become twice as big and uglier, and their weaknesses are not as obvious as mutated animals. They are difficult to kill. At least in his team, his sister and Fang Hongdou are not willing to fight insects. Why was Mrs. Zhang so happy when she heard Spider?
After Bai Zhi got the affirmative answer, she looked at Zhang Tianzhao without saying anything. Zhang Tianzhao didn't even seem to be stubborn and said immediately: "Okay, I'll go. How long will it take?"
Fang Hongdou rushed to say, "It will take three to five days. Just leave after eating. We have plenty of equipment, so you don't need to prepare anything."
"My wife is going with me." Zhang Tianzhao stood up, "You eat first, and you can ask for whatever you want. We'll treat you to this meal. Let's go back and ask for leave, prepare the necessary equipment, and come back before you finish eating. "
Gao Zheng stopped Fang Hongdou from speaking with his eyes and nodded, indicating that he accepted Zhang Tianzhao to take his wife with him. After Zhang Tianzhao and his wife went out. Fang Hongdou complained in a low voice with dissatisfaction: "His wife has level 5 powers? Why join in the fun at such a low level! This man is so spoiled by his wife that he has no bottom line. Yuanyuan, I think you have no hope."
Gao Yuanyuan smiled at Bai Zhi's dinner plate, her smile was sinister, and her voice was very low, "If you don't seek death, you won't die. This kind of woman who doesn't care about life and death and loves to join in the fun won't live long."
"Okay! Mission first, Yuanyuan, after completing the mission this time we can buy a house in the East China Sea. No trouble is allowed until the mission is completed." Gao Zheng shouted to his sister.
Chen Baiyuan, who delivered the meal, glanced at Gao Yuanyuan with a half-smile. You are a spy and you want to kill someone else's wife so arrogantly, you are really looking for death. Not to mention Zhang Tianzhao, no one of the same kind present, including him, would let her go. Let’s meet outside after dinner.
Lin Yunlai reached out to take the walnut kernels from Hai Fengqiu's plate, and said in a voice that only the other party could hear: "Come over to watch the show?"
Hai Fengqiu handed him the plate and said, "Follow."
Zhang Tianzhao and his wife returned quickly. Zhang Tianzhao changed into white washed camouflage clothes, carried a small mountaineering bag, and carried a black iron spear. He looked no different from the supernatural beings who appeared in the streets and alleys of Donghai City. Of course, in the eyes of some people, he must be the most handsome one.
Gu Baizhi's long hair was tied into a bun and fixed with a U-shaped hairpin. She wore old military trousers with leggings, a black dagger handle exposed at the top of her short boots, and a curved sword with a black scabbard hanging from her waist. knife. The combination of tough attire and lively posture is so harmonious that people can't take their eyes away from it.
Gao Zheng looked Gu Baizhi up and down and said, "The place we are going to is near Tanggu. She doesn't pretend at all, she will get into trouble."
"It's okay." Zhang Tianzhao didn't care, "If she gets into trouble, she'll handle it herself."
"We won't take action because of her if you don't tell her. Yuanyuan, Hongdou, you two go separately and inform them to gather outside the gate of Donghai City." Gao Zheng turned to Zhang Tianzhao and said: "You have ice powers. Who is your wife?"
"Thunder element, level nine." Bai Zhi reported the same level as the two girls.
Level 9 can protect themselves when they enter the hunting ground and will not hinder their mission. It is also very convenient to create opportunities to get rid of them. Gao Zheng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. As he walked, he briefly introduced himself and other partners to Zhang Tianzhao. Ability.
Gao Zheng's partners were two taciturn men with good concentration. Seeing Bai Zhi, he was stunned for a while and then recovered. The group of them marched for several hours at a speed of seven kilometers per hour, and arrived at a supply point outside the hunting ground to rest before dark.
The supply point was a cave with a narrow entrance. After going down a few hundred meters, it suddenly became clear that it was a huge cave seven or eight stories high. There are seven rows of cave rooms dug into the four walls, at least two hundred rooms.
There was a big fireball hanging at the door of a large stone room on the bottom floor. The bright firelight illuminated a sign next to the door, and the words "Management Office" were very eye-catching.
"The three of them live in a single room. Can the four of us share a single room?" Gao Zheng discussed with Zhang Tianzhao before entering the management office.
"It's up to you. We need separate rooms. As someone who works for Donghai City and needs to travel frequently, I have the benefit of free accommodation at various supply points." Zhang Tianzhao smiled and motioned for Gao Zheng to go forward.
Gao Zheng didn't waste any time. He went straight in and paid for renting two adjacent single rooms.
Zhang Tianzhao showed his work ID, and the management office sent him a key directly. The number on the key tag read 701. He flashed the door number to Gao Zheng and said, "See you in the cafeteria at breakfast time tomorrow."
Room 701 is the deluxe suite at this supply point.
Gao Zheng watched Zhang Tianzhao and his wife enter 701, sent Gao Yuanyuan and Fang Hongdou into a single room, and said, "That suite is reserved for the leadership of Donghai. You are interested in a big fish. Can you handle it?"
"What can't be solved?" Gao Yuanyuan sneered, "After completing the task, open the hole below and let the spider out. You stop him, and I will create an opportunity to send his wife to the West."
"She's so beautiful, it's a pity to feed the bugs." Fang Hongdou clicked her tongue, "Kill her unconscious, hide her, tell the second team to take care of her, sell her to the south, it will cost a lot of money!"
"Don't even think about it! Tang Gu doesn't care about killing people, but he won't let us go if he arrests people. You forgot about a few Donghai girls captured at the Tongcheng base two years ago and massacred by Gu Tianshan." Gao Zheng shouted, after a while Afterwards, he added: "It's really strange that the people in Yugu are so cruel, and they have such a stable relationship with the conservative Donghai."
"I recently found out that there is a leader of Donghai Research Institute named Gu Tianqing. There is only one word difference between Gu Tianqing and Gu Tianshan's names. They might be brothers." Gao Yuanyuan frowned, "Donghai has hidden the research institute too deep, and I can see them constantly Good things come out, but no one can touch the edge of the research institute. Space bags with dozens of cubic capacity, boots for acceleration, weapons that automatically gather energy, and potions for restoring superpowers. Everything is so magical. Are they robbing them? The Dragon King’s treasure house?”
"The amazing East China Sea Research Institute. Our base and the Qiancheng base both turned against each other over the purchase share of fine seeds from Xijing. Everyone was so excited and eagerly waiting to plant the land. There was not even grass growing on the ground here in the East China Sea, but We have already provided three normal meals." Gao Xun took a long breath and said, "Yuanyuan, it's up to you to lurk inside the East China Sea."
"Having him alone is half the battle." Gao Yuanyuan narrowed her eyes slightly, "I thought it would be difficult to lure Zhang Tianzhao out, but I didn't expect his pig teammates to be so helpful."
