Chapter 171 Base Director
Chi Heng looked helplessly at Yu Yao, who clearly wasn't taking his words seriously, and asked, "When are you planning to go back?"
"Once things are settled here, we'll set off in the next couple of days and make a trip to the Fog Mountain base while we're at it."
Chi Heng frowned.
"Are we going to the Fog Mountain base again?"
"Yes, I made an appointment with Li Yanyi."
Chi Heng: "...Should I go with you?"
"???" Yu Yao looked at Chi Heng in surprise, "Are you that free?"
"Ah."
"Let's forget it. Aunt Liang seems a little afraid of you."
Chi Heng: "..."
Whether she's afraid of me or not is none of my business!
Chi Heng was not happy and stormed off.
Yu Yao knew he was angry, but she had no intention of coaxing him.
He's naturally fierce, so is it strange that others are afraid of him?
That's not surprising!
Yu Yao clicked her tongue helplessly and went over to shake Aunt Liang and Xu Zhiwu up.
Seeing their bewildered expressions, she offered an explanation.
"We found a way to temporarily retrieve your souls, but the energy was too strong during the process and knocked you unconscious. How are you feeling now?"
Xu Zhiwu's attention, however, was focused on the fact that the soul had been retrieved.
"Yaoyao, you managed to get it back?"
Yu Yao nodded. "Aunt Liang has a wooden tag around her neck. You must protect it carefully."
"Okay, okay, thank you, Yao Yao!"
Xu Zhiwu nodded excitedly, his excitement visibly palpable.
Aunt Liang, her eyes red, picked up the wooden plaque on her chest and looked at it again and again, her hands trembling with excitement.
Although Yu Yao couldn't bear to discourage them, she still reminded them, "Aunt Liang, we haven't found a way to re-integrate the souls. For now, we can only nurture them in the Soul-Nourishing Wood."
Aunt Liang smiled and said, "It's alright, it's alright. I'd be fine with wearing this badge for the rest of my life, as long as it doesn't become a weakness that hinders Zhiwu. I'll be very, very satisfied. Yaoyao, thank you so much."
After saying that, she suddenly remembered Chi Heng.
"Where's your captain? I haven't seen him."
Yu Yao said, "He was just passing by and left beforehand."
Aunt Liang disagreed, "Why didn't you invite them to have a meal? They did you a lot of help."
"He has other matters to attend to; it's not too late to discuss it once we return to Kyoto."
"Oh well, oh well~ I didn't think he was a good person at first, but he turned out to be quite reliable. Yao Yao, you're lucky."
"Yes, meeting them is my good fortune."
Upon hearing this, Aunt Liang gave Yu Yao a strange look.
"You... sigh, never mind."
"Aunt Liang, what do you want to say? Just say it."
Aunt Liang chuckled, "It's nothing, it's nothing. I just feel a little bad for misunderstanding him. When we get to Kyoto, please remember to introduce me to him!"
"okay."
......
While Yu Yao and Aunt Liang were chatting, Xu Zhiwu on the other side had already looked at the unconscious Gu Ran.
Seeing the undisguised disgust and murderous intent in his eyes, Yu Yao quickly said, "Brother Zhiwu, spare her life for now."
"why?"
Xu Zhiwu was somewhat puzzled. He had witnessed Yu Yao's ruthlessness and knew that she was not a soft-hearted person.
"Aunt Liang's matter hasn't been completely resolved yet. Aren't you really going to ask about it?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Zhiwu did not insist any further.
......
As expected, Gu Ran caused a scene after waking up.
Xu Zhiwu refused to answer any questions.
He simply ignored her and tied her up, threw her into a room, and locked her up.
Duan Yifeng came over for another free meal, and the group took the opportunity to discuss leaving the Jincheng base.
Duan Yifeng and Xu Zhiwu had a good relationship before the apocalypse, so he would definitely leave with Xu Zhiwu. He directly stated that he was ready to leave with Xu Zhiwu at any time.
"Then let's leave tomorrow," Yu Yao said.
There's no point in staying at this Jincheng base anymore.
After everyone agreed, Yu Yao asked, "I'm planning to go to the Mist Mountain Base. If you don't want to go, I can have the White Tiger escort you back to Kyoto first."
Aunt Liang sighed, "Why wouldn't I want to go? Let's go see! We agreed to go together, didn't we?"
"Okay, then~"
......
The next day, after finishing their meal, the group returned the house at the base, preparing to leave completely.
Chu Lin and Jin Heyan came to see her off in person when they heard the news, even though they didn't want her to leave from the bottom of their hearts.
But in the end, they dared not force him to stay any longer.
They were really afraid that Yu Yao might demolish their base if she got angry, which would be a real problem.
Gu Ran was tied up tightly and hung on the back of the white tiger mount.
You can't fall down, and you can't feel comfortable either.
She almost vomited on the white tiger several times, which made the tiger so angry that it couldn't help but slap her several times with its tail!
Duan Yifeng watched the jokes all the way, laughing so hard he almost passed out.
Half an hour later, the group arrived outside Wushan Town.
In order not to cause trouble for the Fog Mountain Base, Yu Yao had Bai Hu carry Gu Ran and throw her into a civilian house, claiming that she was too much of a hindrance.
In reality, he used the Chaos Pearl to knock out Cheng Xi and then put him into the landscape plaque he had stolen from Cheng Xi.
She has absolutely no right to go to the Seven-Colored Glazed Realm.
......
Through the Sky-Gazing Mirror, Yu Yao could roughly see the interior of the Fog Mountain Base.
The inner city, which had been almost completely razed to the ground, has been rebuilt with buildings.
The base remained clean and tidy, a picture of harmony.
Just as Yu Yao and the others filled out the forms at the entrance, Li Yanyi was already waiting inside the city gate with a smile.
"Welcome, Yu Yao."
Yu Yao laughed and said, "Thank you for the welcome~ But I'm here to make you spend money, and you're still so happy?"
"Of course, I've always hoped you could come back and visit."
"Hmm~ Then I'll have to take a good look."
"Okay, I'll show you around."
Li Yanyi led Yu Yao and the others on a tour, showing them some of the newly built buildings.
They may not be luxurious or exquisite, but they offer the best value for money and are the most comfortable to live in.
As she walked along the road, people would occasionally pass by and greet Li Yan with a smile, addressing her as "Deputy Base Commander."
Yu Yao was a little curious.
"Why is it the deputy base commander? Isn't the base commander someone else?"
Li Yan raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Of course?"
"who?"
"Xie Yu".
Yu Yao's eyes flickered as she looked at Li Yanyi in surprise.
Li Yanyi said, "Although Xie Yu is not often at the base, without her, there would be no Wushan Base as we know it today. Therefore, she is the well-deserved base commander and my eternal idol."
Aunt Liang listened to Li Yanyi's words with curiosity and couldn't help but ask, "Who is Xie Yu? Do you know Yao Yao too?"
Before Yu Yao could answer, Li Yanyi interjected, "She is a very good person, a benefactor of the Fog Mountain Base. If there is a chance in the future, I will introduce her to you properly."
"That's great!"
Aunt Liang smiled and replied, growing to like Li Yanyi more and more the more she looked at him.
Calm and composed, poised and elegant, she may not have the most outstanding looks, but she makes people feel good about her.
She's a very nice girl.
