Chapter 35: Someone Runs Away

When Gu Xi helped the two sisters of the Qin family clean up the cabbage in the field and returned to the other side of the creek, Wei Heng had already gone back to steam the sweet potatoes first, and was peeling the tomatoes at this time......

Wei Heng had already discovered that Gu Xi, this girl, doesn't pick her mouth, she usually eats whatever she has, but among the vegetables, she seems to like to eat sweet and sour tomatoes?

And when she eats tomatoes, she also has a characteristic - she never eats tomato skins.

After the end of the world, food has become particularly precious, and no one will waste food, Gu Xi, a person who eats watermelon and even eats watermelon skin, but he doesn't eat tomato skin, this is obviously not because of his picky mouth......

Wei Heng is a very careful person, after discovering this, when he makes tomatoes again, he will carefully peel them every time......

But this time, Gu Xi stared at the peeled tomato in his hand, but frowned slightly.

"What's wrong?" Wei Heng raised his head and asked.

"Nothing." Gu Xi was thinking about other things in his mind, so he said casually perfunctorily: "I just suddenly thought that there was a very famous dish before the end of the world - tomato and egg soup ......"

At this moment, Wei Heng's brows also wrinkled.

After the end of the world, chickens still lay eggs, although they have mutated.

And the size of the egg was bigger than the mouth of the bowl.

It's just the taste...... It's hard to put into words.

After Wei Heng was tricked into eating an egg once when he was a child, he never touched that thing since.

This is also why, although Wei Heng has always wanted to replenish Gu Xi's body, he has never thought of boiling a few eggs for her or stewing a pot of chicken soup - that thing is almost fatal to eat!

Now that Gu Xi suddenly mentioned this, he thought that she was curious and wanted to taste it, and after thinking about it, he persuaded euphemistically: "Actually, tomato soup without eggs is also quite delicious......

At this moment, Shen Yue also hurried over with a meal.

Gu Xi glanced behind him, and sure enough, he didn't find that person, and even Qi Xiang didn't come back.

It seems that Wei Heng knows the man very well and guessed correctly......

"Is the meal ready?" Shen Yue went to the kitchen to get a pair of dishes and chopsticks, and squatted next to the two, with half a sweet potato in his mouth.

Wei Heng glanced up at him, very speechless: "......"

Shen Yue suddenly said, "Ye Junhan escorted Ye Nan and the two professors to the forest last night......

Although the two professors are ordinary people and don't know much about X energy, they are professionals in botany, and after Ye Nan analyzed the sample data of the mutant locust tree he brought back, the two professors immediately showed great interest.

No, they didn't even bother to eat lunch, so they asked Ye Junhan to take them into the forest.

Gu Xi thought about it, turned his head and asked him, "Qi Xiang also went?" ”

Shen Yue nodded and turned his head to look at her: "You seem to be ...... Interested in Qi Xiang? ”

Gu Xi met his inquiring eyes, and did not dodge or dodge: "Her ability is very interesting. ”

"Really?" Shen Yue shrugged his shoulders and said it casually, but in fact, he blatantly tentatively said, "I thought you were interested in that Dr. Qi......

Gu Xi couldn't help but glance at him more, this person's acuity was not under Wei Heng.

But she neither admitted nor denied it, but asked rhetorically: "The two professors entered the forest, so why didn't you go?" ”

Shen Yue has always been in charge of the security work of the two professors, and it makes no sense that the two professors went into the forest, but Shen Yue, the security officer, did not go.

Shen Yue got up and swallowed the remaining sweet potato, leaned back lazily, and glanced at Wei Heng next to him: "With Ye Junhan here, I don't have to go......

Wei Heng lowered his head and put the peeled tomatoes in his hand into the basin on the side, wiped his hands, and then turned around and added a handful of firewood to the stove.

Gu Xi raised her eyebrows slightly: Why does she think that the atmosphere between these two men is a little weird?

……

In the afternoon, a few young people went to the foot of the ownerless barren mountain next to them to open a few acres of land, and decided to plant another big watermelon and send it to the front line of Hengshan.

During this period, Professor Zhao and others never came out of the forest.

Shen Yue glanced at Gu Xi meaningfully from time to time, it was simply blatant.

And Gu Xi didn't seem to see it, and the emotions on his face didn't fluctuate for a minute.

However, Wei Heng couldn't stand it anymore, and after finishing a watermelon, he didn't want her to clean it up, so he hurriedly pushed Gu Xi back to rest.

Gu Xi was not reluctant.

The weather was nice in the afternoon, with clear skies, warm sunshine and no sunshine.

Gu Xi didn't go back to the house, but moved a recliner out, leaning against the corner of the wall to bask in the sun, while listening to the radio slowly.

But there was another thing on my mind:

Seeing Wei Heng peeling the tomato at noon reminded her that now the energy in the mutant locust tree's body is wrapped in her ability, which is like the skin of the tomato, and it is naturally no problem if no one touches it.

But once someone lifts that skin, then the weird energy that was suppressed by her ability before will grow explosively.

At that time, it is very likely that the mutant locust tree will undergo a vicious transformation in a very short period of time.

When the time comes, it will be another trouble.

You must know that judging from the news revealed by Xu 123 before, the locations of the previous cases of xenomorphic transformation were far apart.

In the vicinity of Camp 9527, there have been two incidents of xenomorphism in a short period of time.

If this is the case, there will be another malignant event in the vicinity...... The 9527 camp will probably become the focus of everyone's attention.

This is obviously not a good thing for Gu Xi, at least for Gu Xi now.

So this matter cannot be delayed.

It has to be solved as soon as possible.

At this moment, Shen Yue suddenly shook over.

Gu Xi raised his eyebrows slightly. It seems that Wei Heng still failed to prevent people in the end.

Shen Yue glanced at her, went to the house and moved a recliner out of the house, lay down comfortably next to Gu Xi, and turned his head to look over: "What about listening to the radio again?" ”

He noticed that the girl seemed to be particularly fond of listening to the radio, and had been listening to it almost every day since she bought the antique radio.

Gu Xi replied casually.

Shen Yue's gaze fell on the somewhat old dictionary in her hand, and raised her eyebrows slightly: "What do you think of this?" ”

Gu Xi: "I don't read much, and I haven't gone to school seriously...... Now it's rare to settle down, the days are leisurely, and there is time to calm down...... Just take a look. ”

When Li Ming set the codebook as a dictionary, Qi Ran also laughed at him, saying that in these years, even old scholars would not live with a dictionary.

After all, the days after the end of the world are too difficult. It's hard to even survive, and who would live with those useless books all day long?

The nostalgia and sorrow in Gu Xi's eyes flashed.

Shen Yue looked at her, suddenly sat up from the recliner, touched his chin with one hand and said, "That's it...... I've been in school for a few years, or I'll teach you? ”

Gu Xi raised his eyes slightly and stared at him for a while, "...... All right. ”

As she spoke, she directly handed the dictionary in her hand to Shen Yue.

Shen Yue was not polite, he coughed lightly twice after taking the dictionary, and it was rare to restrain the usual casualness on his face, and looked through the "textbook" he had just arrived in a serious manner.

Suddenly, the man flipped through the dictionary for a moment, pointed to a certain word on one of the pages, and asked Gu Xi: "Do you know this word?" ”

Gu Xi followed his direction and looked over, raising his eyebrows slightly: "Charm and Spirit? ”

Shen Yue suddenly exclaimed exaggeratedly: "Gu Xiaoxi, you are amazing, you know such a difficult word...... there was still a bit of a ridiculous smile on his face.

Gu Xi was speechless, and said with a wooden face: "...... Although I don't read much, I'm not illiterate. "It's okay to read and write.

You know, she grew up in the Anomalies Research Institute since she was a child.

What is the Institute of Abilities? That's where high-level intellectuals nest in piles!

Therefore, although Gu Xi has not read much and has never gone to school seriously, he has no problem knowing a few words since he was a child...... What's more, Li Ming didn't teach her less when she was a child.

But......

Gu Xi's gaze fell on the words under the man's fingertips again-ι­‘charmι­‰?

Is this hinting at her something?

Thinking about it carefully, Shen Yue is indeed a little abnormal today.

He is the security officer of the two professors, and it is said that the two professors have entered the forest, and he, the security officer, will follow him no matter what.

- No matter how powerful Ye Junhan is, if he encounters an emergency, he may not be able to protect so many people alone in the densely vegetated forest!

What's more, the two professors are ordinary people and they are both old...... If something happens, it's all his responsibility as a security officer.

But the man didn't follow.

Gu Xi recalled Shen Yue's expression and tone when he mentioned this matter at noon, as well as the glance he glanced at Wei Heng......

Gu Xi retracted his gaze and lowered his eyes slightly. It seems that Ye Junhan has another purpose for this trip.

And the man in front of him ...... I'm afraid that I have already reached some kind of tacit understanding with that person.

Under the fine sunlight, a fresh breeze hits, enveloping the unique fragrance of plants and trees.

At the same time, the sweet voice of the announcer came from the old radio: "Listeners and friends, let's listen to an old song together......

Gu Xi raised his eyes and glanced at this person deeply.

Then, in the other party's undodging gaze, he reached out and took back his dictionary, turned to a certain page, pushed it over, and asked him seriously: "I don't really understand the explanation of this word......

She began to try to remember the way the two devil professors asked questions in class, and then turned on the paste and copy mode......

Ten minutes later, Shen Yue fled.
