179, return trip
"How do you know I'm my sister?" Hearing the childish words of the little man on the hospital bed, Fei Qianlan raised her eyebrows, and the lines of her beautiful face, which had always been tight and cold, eased a lot in an instant.
"The scent, and the sound. The child pursed his lips shyly and chuckled, stretching out his bony hands to probe the void, "I also know that my sister must be beautiful." ”
Looking straight at his dull eyes, Fei Qianlan sighed shallowly. Perhaps God had mercy on the child and robbed him of his vision, but his other senses became unusually sharp.
"What's your name?" asked softly, putting her hand on the child's arm as she approached quickly.
"My name is Mercury. The smile raised by Xiao Budian crossed the gloom, and the hand as thin as a small claw accurately grabbed the person next to him, "Mom and Dad said that my name is similar to one of the eight planets......
It seems that it is too lonely to hide in the floor for a long time, or perhaps because the people around him give him a warm feeling, the thin child who was still silent on the hospital bed before is obviously lively.
Mercury was just seven years old, his mother was bitten by a zombie on the way home, and his father lured his mother away to protect his family, and never returned.
Because of the lack of food and water sources, his grandparents also died under the claws of the zombie horde when they went out to look for food.
Originally, Mercury couldn't escape the fate of being starved to death, but fortunately, the ivy that he had been cultivating for more than two years on the balcony had mutated.
After sowing from ivy seeds, it is Mercury who is responsible for watering. After the mutation, the ivy is extremely humane, not only secretly protecting the child, but also searching for food for him from other homes from time to time.
If it weren't for the small grocery store downstairs of their house, the seven-year-old child would not have survived the end of the world alone until the next year.
When the last bit of food in the grocery store was exhausted, he had been hungry for four days when he met Fei Qianlan and others who had come to him.
"Alright. We don't cry. Gently wiping away the tears on the child's face, Fei Qianlan took out a black stone red rope necklace the size of a fingernail from her trouser pocket, and brought it to him with a faint expression.
"My sister is about to return to Base Y, so I'll give you this chain. You can't take it off at any time, you can't lose it, remember?"
In the last days. It is becoming more and more difficult for a blind person who has lost his vision to survive, let alone a child as young as him. Therefore, Fei Qianlan gave him the Hidden Stone, which can be regarded as adding a layer of protection to Mercury.
Of course, this fingernail-sized cryptostone was also split in two, and the remaining half she had to leave to her younger brother Xiaotong. Separating the cryptostone is not as simple as cutting it directly with a knife, it must be separated by an esoteric and mysterious formation so as not to destroy the effect of the cryptolite.
This is still what she asked Mu Wanqing to divide into two pieces, but this hidden stone can't be divided anymore, otherwise it will lose its effect completely.
"Thank you, sister, I will take good care of this chain. "Touching the extra thing around my neck. Mercury blinked with his big wet eyes, and grinned again.
"When I grow up and have the ability, I will definitely go to the Y base to find my sister!"
"Okay, Xiao Xingran, I'll wait at Base Y. Touching his head, which had become large due to long-term malnutrition, Fei Qianlan's dark eyes slightly narrowed into gentle eyes, "Remember, my name is Fei Qianlan." Non-Wenfei, tens of thousands. Yamakazearashi. ”
The scorching heat gradually faded as the red sun set on the other side of the sky, and the only remaining heat still made the sky close to the red sun sullen and upset.
The three military planes smoothly crossed the air at an altitude of several thousand meters, and in the special cabin in front of the fuselage, Fei Qianlan lazily leaned against the window, looking out at the scenery that was completely different from before the end of the world. It's rare to start.
"I haven't seen Tongtong for almost a year, and I don't know if I've grown taller?" Mu Wanqing, who was steady beside her, snapped and closed a thick book in her hand, and looked at the short-haired girl out of the corner of her eye, "I miss them very much, right?"
The words seemed to be headless and brainless, but Fei Qianlan, who understood the meaning, nodded her head lightly. Pulling back his gaze and smiling brightly at the other party, "Yes." ”
How could you not want to, this trip has been almost half a month. I don't know how my mother and younger brother are doing at Base Y, and if they are worried about themselves.
Yan Xicheng, who was sitting side by side with Brother Mu Wanqing, involuntarily fell to the face of the girl opposite who stretched between her eyebrows, and her mood also soared.
I inexplicably think that she smiles so beautifully, if she can smile like this in the future, how good it would be.
Fortunately, until the plane was about to enter the airspace above Base Y, they landed at the airfield without encountering any danger.
It's already summer, and it's always getting dark so late. It was nearly seven o'clock in the evening, and the whole sky was gray and gloomy.
The moment the plane landed slowly, Fei Qianlan looked down through the window, and the endless black shadows were heavy, like a hidden beast constantly devouring the land.
Not far away, the Y base, which had been lit up one after another, was like a guiding light, dimly and flutteringly exuding a small and faint light.
Her heart contracted in an instant, and she remembered that in that novel, she had described that Base Y was still unable to support it and collapsed after being besieged by zombies again and again.
Fortunately, a full decade has passed, and the remaining national bases in China and the surrounding areas have long since merged with the alliance, and the alliance base has been transferred to the land of ice and snow in the south of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Perhaps it is precisely because of this that Base Y lost its important armed forces, and it only lasted for ten years before it dissipated into history.
"Let's go home and get some rest, and I'll go to you tomorrow. The man in military uniform who walked out of the cockpit had already approached before the fuselage landed, and his frowning brows that had been frowning all the way finally dispersed, and his gaze seemed to sweep over Fei Qianlan.
"Hmm. After a short monophonic word, Fei Qianlan glanced at the other party lightly, and for some reason actually thought of a guy surnamed Lian.
It seems that he hasn't seen him since he had an unpleasant quarrel with Lian Jue early in the morning, so he may have returned to Base Y a long time ago.
Inexplicably recalling that moment of stunnedness, Fei Qianlan's originally calm state of mind suddenly dropped, and her eyes as black as night swept across the fierce light. Hmph, don't let yourself be caught, otherwise you will definitely beat up the surname Lian a few times!
The surrounding atmosphere suddenly became a few degrees colder, and the thoughtful men and women present all seemed to have a sense to look at the short-haired girl leaning on the innermost.
Although the girl maintained her previous posture without moving, Yan Xicheng still noticed a subtle change in her expression, sniffing out the tyranny hidden under the calm.
Out of the corner of his eye, Luo Xurui looked at the concerned expression of the black-clothed young man diagonally opposite, and Lian Jue's demonic smiling face flashed in his mind. He sighed secretly, he didn't expect that Fei Yatou was surrounded by so many caring people, and it would be difficult to walk in the future. (To be continued......)
