Just when Ding Xiu was helping Xu Jingnian solve the hidden danger of Xingtang Town, in another city under the same sky, a beautiful girl was waiting for his news with joy.

As soon as Chen Bin returned home, his granddaughter Chen Jianing came over and inquired about Ding Xiu's situation.

"Grandpa, did you send the people to the western defense line see Ding Xiu?"

"There is no news yet, why do you inquire about him twice in three days?" Chen Bin stretched out his finger and scratched Chen Jianing's nose, he liked to tease his good granddaughter like this when she was very young.

"What's the matter, I just don't want to owe people a favor in vain." As if worried that his grandfather would see something, Chen Jianing was a little flustered, and hurriedly pretended to be calm.

Chen Bin smiled and didn't think much about it, "Ning Ning, Huaiyu and Zhixi will be in Brilliant City this afternoon, you can pick them up then." They will study at Brilliant Academy next, and they will be familiar with the environment here in the past few days. ”

"Ah, Cousin Huaiyu and Cousin Zhixi will be able to go to Brilliant City today?" Chen Jianing heard her mother mention this a few days ago, but she didn't expect them to arrive so quickly.

"Of course, you have to do your best to be a landlord." Chen Bin nodded and said, "Huaiyu and Zhixi's grandfather Meng Jie are my old acquaintances, and their grandmother is your aunt and grandmother. Our Chen family and the Meng family have a lot of friendship, and I hope you juniors can get along well. ”

"That's nature, don't worry, grandpa." Chen Jianing responded obediently.

The grandfather and grandson were talking, when suddenly they saw someone hurrying outside the gate. Chen Bin looked at it and saw that it was his guard Li Yanghang, and a bad premonition suddenly surged in his heart.

"Chief!"

"What's going on?" Chen Bin got up and asked.

"This is the news from the Western Military District, the person you are looking for, his information is also in it."

Chen Bin took the document in Li Yanghang's hand and opened it to look at it one by one.

After Chen Jianing heard the sentence "The person you are looking for, his information is also in it", her heart suddenly began to become nervous.

The girl really wanted to come to her grandfather's side to read the news on the document together, but the Chen family's family rules did not allow unrelated people in the family to intervene in state affairs, so even if she was very urgent, she could only sit and wait for her grandfather to take the initiative to talk about it.

As Chen Bin's gaze gradually moved down on the document, his expression became more and more solemn, and when he saw the end, the old man suddenly sighed.

"What's wrong, grandpa?" Chen Jianing still didn't hold her breath in the end, she saw that her grandfather's face was not good, and she was also worried in her heart.

"Xiao Li, have several other military and political chiefs and members of the Military Commission known the news?" Chen Bin didn't rush to reply to Chen Jianing's words, but asked Li Yanghang.

"Someone has already sent a message." Li Yanghang responded.

"Okay, you go back to the military headquarters first, and I'll come later." Chen Bin nodded, and when Li Yanghang left, he put the documents on the coffee table, sat back on the sofa, closed his eyes and pondered for a moment.

"Grandpa?" Chen Jianing shouted softly at him.

"There is news of Ding Xiu on it, you can read it if you want to."

With the permission of her grandfather, Chen Jianing reached out and took the document on the coffee table, she opened the document and looked at the information on it very carefully, for fear that she would miss a word.

"Mutant bullet ant colony?!" Chen Jianing was looking at it, and suddenly exclaimed: "How can this be." ”

"It was really sudden, and it was very weird. Ding Xiu's camp and the two surrounding towns were destroyed by the ant colony, but the situation has been controlled by the Western Military Region, and the heavy troops of the Southern Military Region have also rushed there, and they should be in place now. Chen Bin said this, his tone suddenly became a little heavy, "Only a few personnel in the W47 camp survived, and the list of survivors is on the second page. ”

Chen Jianing listened to her grandfather's words, and hurriedly turned to the second page of the document, trying to find the name she cared about the most.

"Chen Jiansen, Jiang Xiaozhou, Li Cheng......" dozens of names were read one by one, and Chen Jianing's eyes turned red.

The girl looked at the list several times, and after confirming that there was no Ding Xiu's name, she suddenly felt a sense of heartbreak for a moment.

"Is this true, Grandpa?" She raised her head and asked Chen Bin.

"In the past few days, you have taken Huaiyu and Zhixi to have a good rest." Chen Bin touched her head, stood up and said, "I'll go to the military headquarters now." ”

Chen Jia's gaze as he saw his grandfather out of the house was blurry, because tears had come out of his eyes. She returned to her room, and suddenly hugged the pillow on the bed and cried, like a child who got lost at night, crying for herself, crying for Ding Xiu, who suddenly disappeared from life, crying about the past when the two of them were in trouble together, crying about everything.

"How can this be......" After a long time, the girl finally stopped crying, but the sadness did not disappear, but continued to spread in her heart.

Feeling that there was a small thing in his hand that kept rubbing, Chen Jianing raised his head and saw that it was the "Pu Taylor" who he kept in the room, and he didn't know when he crawled over.

"Balls?" The girl's heart warmed, knowing that this little guy was trying to comfort herself.

Wiping away her tears, Chen Jianing regained her mood. Looking at this creature that she had brought out of the desert with Ding Xiu, she finally felt some comfort in her heart.

The girl named "Putellor" Qiuqiu, and when she brought it back to Brilliant City, she went to find two of her most knowledgeable masters: Zhao Kang, a grandmaster-level computer expert, and Yuan Fang, a grandmaster-level inventor.

Through the help of the two, Chen Jianing finally knew some information about Qiuqiu.

This creature did not exist in the Old World, and its appearance remains a mystery to this day.

According to Zhao Kang's genetic research for Qiuqiu, he came to the conclusion that it is only the juvenile stage of "Pu Taylor", and the growth potential of this creature is very huge, but the juvenile stage is the most fragile stage of its life.

In response to the fact that he was very fragile in his childhood, "Pu Taylor" has specially evolved a very special ability, that is, it can simulate the aura of S-class or even S-level mutated creatures, and it can disguise itself as very powerful by creating this illusion, and use it to scare off other nearby creatures to protect itself.

Because of this, the sandfolk regard it as something more valuable than life, because as long as the tribe has a "Putailer", it means that there is security in the desert day and night.

Only when it stays in the food will its vigilance disappear, so that it will not produce a fake aura.

The food of "Putailer" is human blood, and after Zhao Kang's research, it is actually just like fibrinogen in human blood and certain enzymes and hormones, which can be synthesized through artificial materials.

After learning that Chen Jianing wanted to keep "Putailer" as a pet, Zhao Kang and Yuan Fang specially asked their team to perform a genetic modification operation for Qiuqiu.

The operation was a success, and Qiuqiu not only got rid of the habit of soaking in the blood, but also became very close to its owner. This is because Zhao Kang found that some factors in its gene fragments are similar to those of animals such as cats and dogs, so he fused the two through technical means, and the results were very satisfactory.

In order to let their beloved apprentice get a perfect pet, these two "national treasure" level experts can be described as painstaking.

The normal shape of the ball is just an oval ball, but after genetic modification, it is not only able to change color according to the environment, but also to change the shape of the body moderately.

At this moment, Qiuqiu had four more feet under him, and a pair of ears stood up on his chubby head.

"Do you remember Ding Xiu, Qiuqiu?" Chen Jianing touched its body and held it in the palm of her hand, she had a lot of things in her heart that she wanted to talk to, but at the moment she could only tell this little guy.

Qiuqiu can't speak, can't call, and can't even understand human language for the time being, but it can sense the emotions of any living thing around it.

It knew that Chen Jianing was sad, so it stuck to the girl to comfort her.

"A person's sky is blue, a little blue and a little melancholy, when you are alone, you are free, you are a little lonely, and when you are alone, you are a little bored...... I was happy when I missed him, and I was a little sad to be happy! ”

Chen Jianing muttered, thinking of the sad place, her eyes began to turn red again, she still couldn't accept the news that there was no Ding Xiu on the survivor list.

Qiuqiu felt Chen Jianing's sadness, jumped up on the girl's shoulder, leaned over her neck and licked her face.

The itchy feeling was a little warm, and gradually diluted the sadness in Chen Jianing's heart.

"I understand what you mean, life has to go on, and I have to pick myself up again." She and Qiuqiu haven't been together for a long time, but a tacit understanding has been formed between the two, "Putailer" is one of the creatures who can feel the emotions of the outside world the most, and the girl herself is also a Huizhi Lanxin.

After getting up to wash her face, Chen Jianing put on light makeup for herself again, she cleaned up her mood and buried the sadness in her heart.

It was afternoon when the special train from Tianque City arrived in Brilliant City, and its speed was very fast, and the body was very stable in the process of high-speed driving.

When the special train stopped, a pair of people walked out of the VIP car. Behind them were a retinue dressed as butlers or servants.

This pair is very young, about seventeen or eighteen years old. Among them, the young man has sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a high nose bridge, thin lips with a handsome smile; The girl on her side is elegant and vulgar, her skin is better than snow, her eyes are like a pool of clear water, and she has an elegant and elegant temperament when she looks forward to it.

These two are not lovers, but brother and sister, and they are from Tianque City.

"Brother, let's see Sister Jia Ning again, aren't you excited?" Meng Zhixi said with a smile.

"Hmph, teasing your brother again." Meng Huaiyu pretended to be angry, but his acting skills were not good, and his pretended appearance collapsed after three seconds.

Meng Zhixi knows her brother best, and seeing his happy appearance, she is also looking forward to meeting Chen Jianing later.

Several cars slowly drove in front of the brother and sister from far and near, and a pretty girl walked down from the first car, who is this Chen Jianing.

The soft and gentle voice has reached the ears of the two of them.

"Cousin Huaiyu, cousin Zhixi, welcome to Brilliant City!"
