Xie Xiyi was outside the door, his voice a little apologetic.

Xie Xiyi: "Thinking about meeting an old friend, I'm a little excited. ”

Su Yibai paused.

You can't treat Xie Xiyi like you treat Xia and others, and let people go at will.

Su Yibai paused for a moment, gently put down the alarm clock and replied, "Professor Xie, you go down, I will let her go down in fifteen minutes." ”

Xie Xiyi seemed to be very happy, and hurriedly returned: "Okay, okay, I'll go down and wait." ”

Xie Xiyi's happiness was too obvious, and after Su Yibai hummed lightly, the sound of slow walking came from the corridor, and then it fell silent.

Qin Nuannuan had already heard Xie Xiyi's words, and a few seconds after he left, Qin Nuannuan sat up arched one by one.

Qin Nuannuan: "Are you so excited to see an old friend?" ”

Qin Nuannuan has a natural feeling of not daring to compete with the kind old people and children who don't know the world, perhaps because she has been influenced by traditional culture, this kind of thing has become accustomed to her.

Su Yibai fully understood Qin Nuannuan, and directly fished her out of bed, "Get ready to get up, you should also know that you can't stay in bed today." ”

×××

The continuous white snow adorns the world, and the branches and jade leaves, the pink jade masonry, are bright.

Everyone is flying in the air on a skateboard.

Xue Dong was the deputy of this mission, he was wearing a red-framed windshield, wearing a red and black mountaineering suit of the same color, a thick gray scarf around his neck, and black leather gloves on his hands to protect him from the cold.

Everyone's speed is not fast, and maintaining a certain speed can ensure that the whole team has been moving forward in a disorderly manner, after all, the danger in the air has always been there and has never disappeared.

Xue Dong: "Nuan Nuan, in that direction, we should have about half an hour." ”

It is said that it is half an hour, but in fact the position is not close, at least in the current altitude and distance in the air. Qin Nuannuan couldn't see the Chicago base yet.

Hearing Xue Dong's words, Qin Nuannuan's hand was wrapped with a red crystal nucleus to ensure that her body was warm, and she watched the exhaled breath form a thick mist in front of her, and nodded. "Well, speed it up."

Xue Dong: "If you speed up, it will get colder and colder, and maybe everyone can't stand it anymore." ”

Qin Nuannuan paused for a moment, and suddenly remembered something, but the expression on her face remained the same. Continued: "Put three first-order fire energy crystal nuclei in the crystal nucleus slot. ”

Although he didn't know what Qin Nuannuan meant, Xue Dong didn't ask much, and everyone didn't ask more, and just did it.

Then, a thin fiery red film appeared on the originally thin skateboard, insulating the cold wind from the outside.

Xue Dong stretched out his hand and poked it gently, and the film was like the surface of water, forming ripple-like ripples centered on the position where Xue Dong poked.

Xue Dong and the others felt extremely magical, this flying machine that they thought they had completely mastered still had so many magical mysteries that they had not discovered before.

Xie Xiyi, who was already old and frail, was even more relieved, it was originally in the air for him. It's a big challenge for the body.

Qin Nuannuan pretended that nothing had happened, and the expression on her face was still expressionless: "I forgot to say it." All aircraft, if in addition to the crystal nucleus used as the first one used as the consumption of the flying instrument in the crystal nucleus energy slot, if the crystal nucleus in the back is put into three identical ones, it will become this kind of protective film with attributes, this protective film is not like a barrier, it cannot be attacked by the outside, and can be attacked inside. It's something that can be attacked inside and out. This film is only able to resist weak energy fluctuations, such as wind. Rain such energy fluctuations. ”

Qin Nuannuan paused: "All in all, this film is the effect of an attribute extension. The external energy is fine at the threshold, but beyond the threshold, the barrier is of little use. ”

Crystal nuclei are precious. At most, everyone just put one spare one in the crystal nucleus slot, and no one has ever put three crystal nuclei with the same properties in it.

Although there is a fiery red barrier, the fiery red crystal nucleus on Qin Nuannuan's hand still hasn't let go, her current physique is relatively weak, and she has a natural and always close feeling to warm things.

The past was calm and uneventful. There are no zombie birds or mutant birds to bother.

Half an hour later, Qin Nuannuan and the others arrived directly at the remote Chicago base very safely.

The Chicago base is not big, just a small position, and when you look down from the air, it's just the size of your thumb.

Moreover, it is simply fenced around it, and the houses inside are simply built with mutated trees, which looks very primitive and very unsafe.

The people in Chicago seemed to have known the news that Qin Nuannuan and the others would come, and they had been waiting outside for a long time.

When Qin Nuannuan arrived, he saw the small black dots gathered together on the ground at the entrance of the base.

Xue Dong cheered up and cheered up again: "It's there, let's prepare to land there." ”

Everyone replied in unison, and then controlled the direction of the aircraft to slope downward, and slowly descended to the ground very neatly.

"Yo ho~~~ here and here."

Chinese is a bit lame, but it does not prevent the two groups from communicating.

After Qin Nuannuan landed, he was immediately warmly welcomed by the people at the Chicago base.

"I heard you guys were coming, and we took out everything in the base!!"

"Welcome, first time, warm welcome."

When she was in a cold war with Su Yibai before, she used to wander around.

At that time, she had been to Chicago and lived there for a while, living as an art student for a long time.

The people there are kind, the atmosphere is relaxed, and they are welcoming and helpful.

When I was in school, I once fainted directly because the intensity of my study was too great.

When she woke up, she was already hanging glucose in the hospital.

The cost of medicine in Chicago is very high, and the cost of various CT scans is very high.

The cost is about two thousand and a half dollars.

And Qin Nuannuan doesn't swipe Su Yibai's card, so this fee is a very big expense for Qin Nuannuan.

At the same time, Chicago's medical insurance system is also very complete, and after the reimbursement is gone, Qin Nuannuan needs to pay about 120 US dollars.

But $120 for a night's bed and a bottle of glucose water was not a good deal. So she appealed.

In the end, the appeal was accepted, so the $100 was refunded. Qin Nuannuan only paid twenty dollars.

It is precisely because of Chicago's humane management and relaxed atmosphere that Qin Nuannuan has always liked this city very much.

For Chicago's enthusiasm, Qin Nuannuan did not respond very warmly. Instead, he beckoned and whispered in the ear of the person next to him, "Take out the things you have prepared." ”

The person in the back nodded and took something out from behind him.

Then, the people at the Chicago base were all stunned, stunned as they looked at the series of gifts taken out from behind Qin Nuannuan and the others.

Stacks of clothes were moved out. It looks like a very warm winter coat, and it looks brand new. Everyone was a little excited, they were really fed up with such a biting winter.

Then there are all kinds of food, fresh meat that has been frozen, and vegetables that are still green, and I know how long it has been since I lived a good life.

Even canned food that has long disappeared in the last days, all kinds of snacks are carried in bags and bags. Everyone couldn't help but swallow their saliva, and the saliva that they couldn't suppress was overflowing.

In addition to this, there are many small utensils, such as wooden cups. Wooden tables, wooden chairs...

There are even assault weapons from a small shop, defensive weapons, disposable consumable weapons, and so on, which are coveted by everyone.

Standing at the front of the line, there was a big man with a long beard and a big beard, he was a little stunned when he looked at this scene, swallowed his saliva and looked at the group of people in front of him and asked, "This is...?" ”

Xie Xiyi walked out from the back of the crowd and said with a smile: "Lance, long time no see." ”

Reims. The look on Galbraith's face softened suddenly, he opened his hands and wanted to hug Xie Xiyi, and his tone became closer, "Old Xie." It's been a long time, it's been a long time, it's been a long time, but you are..."

Xie Xiyi coughed lightly twice. He looked a little embarrassed, "Just bring some gifts." ”

However, such a gift seems to be a bit too big, and Xie Xiyi himself has such an awareness.

However, what Qin Nuannuan decided to do, ordinary people couldn't stop it.

Xie Xiyi clenched his fist in front of his mouth and coughed, "It's okay, it's just a little heart." ”

Although in the last days. But Chicago people are still easy to accept people's kindness, they are cheerful, and they generally don't think about things.

Hearing Xie Xiyi's explanation, Lance. The smile on Galbraith's face became obvious, "Then come in, the things you sent can enrich today's lunch at noon, it's hard to meet, we have to celebrate at noon today." ”

Qin Nuannuan's task was just to send Xie Xiyi to the Chicago base by the way, and she had other tasks to complete.

Reims. As soon as Galbraith's voice fell, Qin Nuannuan said in very fluent English: "That, we are just escorting Professor Xie over, we still have other tasks to complete." ”

Reims. Galbraith: "Well, what's the matter, I'm here, I'll have to eat a meal before I go." ”

Qin Nuannuan shook her head, "No, we still have things to do." ”

Reims. Galbraith looked sideways at Xie Xiyi.

Xie Xiyi has been friends with Lance for decades, how could he not understand what he meant.

He turned his head and glanced at Qin Nuannuan: "Let's stay and have lunch together, besides, Lance has important things to say." ”

Qin Nuannuan glanced at Lance, and then at the dark-skinned chef in a dirty chef's hat standing behind Lance.

She craved an authentic Chicago pizza and wondered if a dark-skinned chef would be able to make it.

Thinking about it, Qin Nuannuan stretched out her tongue and licked her upper lip gently, paused, and looked at the black man wearing a chef's hat: "Do you know how to make pizza?" ”

The black man opened his mouth to reveal a mouthful of white and neat teeth, "The material is sufficient, absolutely original." ”

Qin Nuannuan nodded, "Okay, let's stay for a while, but." ”

Lance: "What's wrong?" ”

Qin Nuannuan: "Isn't Chicago a gathering place for blacks?" Why are you the only black man here? ”

Black Myron. Kerr smiled, "Our army didn't come here, we went to the other side. ”

This sentence was plausible, but Qin Nuannuan felt as if she understood something, and she looked sideways at Lance.

Lance nodded, "That's what I was trying to tell you. ”

Xue Dong glanced at the team behind him and walked to Qin Nuannuan's side, "I'll take them in first." ”

Qin Nuannuan waved her hand, "Well, you guys go in with you." ”

Xue Dong led the team to follow the hospitable survivors of the Chicago base inside, while Qin Nuannuan walked to a small mushroom house at the entrance of the base at the invitation of Lance.

The raw material of the mushroom house is the trunk of a mutated yew tree, which has a thick trunk and lush foliage, and is extremely survivable.

As long as there is a root that does not die, and you give it soil and water again, it will be able to struggle out of its dying state and survive again.

It is said to be a mushroom house because the branches of the mutated yew have become swollen, as if the nutrients cannot be transported to the branches and leaves, but they cannot return to the soil and are blocked in the middle.

The inside of the branch was hollowed out and turned into a small conference room.

Lance pointed to the glass bottles of various colors placed on the wooden shelves and looked at Qin Nuannuan: "What to drink?" ”

Qin Nuannuan: "Rafay? ”

Lance shook his head, "Where else is there any Rafe here, it's all juiced out of some mutated fruits." ”

Qin Nuannuan: "You guys have a good color." ”

Lance took down a glass bottle of dark purple juice from the shelf, "After all, I used to be a professional. ”

Qin Nuannuan raised her eyebrows and looked at Xie Xiyi.

Xie Xiyi explained: "This is his hobby, he does research in molecular physics. ”

Qin Nuannuan: "Before we officially start the conversation, I want to know how you connect with each other. ”

Lance handed Qin Nuannuan a glass of rippling juice, and then sat opposite Qin Nuannuan, and the three of them formed a triangular momentum.

"I'm guessing you're going to ask that."

Qin Nuannuan: "Of course I will ask, after all, in the current situation, if we can connect with each other, you should also know that this is definitely the key point to change the current situation." ”

The reason why Qin Nuannuan didn't use a large number of receivers to promote the use between her and Su Yibai through a small shop had many considerations, but it was undeniable that they had focused on the huge impact that restoring the communication between the supernatural beings would have now.
