After Apocalypse, I Got Rich With Superpower -
Chapter 125 - 123 Arrival
Chapter 125: Chapter 123 Arrival
After capturing a few bandits, it took some time, but they detoured to send the prisoners to Snow Mountain Base for temporary detention.
With this commotion, it was already morning, and everyone continued driving on. After a brief conversation with Snow Mountain Base, they agreed to stop by and treat their wounded on the way back, promising Li Pan would be well compensated.
They proceeded to Xinghai Base, needing to pick up the pace now. The delay had cost them a whole night, putting them behind schedule, so they had to speed up their journey.
On the road, Li Pan asked, "Could it be the Zhang Family that wants to kill me because I’m disobedient and won’t side with them? I’ve thought it over for a long time, and aside from their family, who has the ability, I can’t think of anyone else. I haven’t offended anyone, and even if I had, they wouldn’t have the ability to hire so many high-level superpower users to come after me."
"It might not necessarily be you."
"Brother, I’m not stupid. I’m just not bothered with scheming and being calculative, but that doesn’t mean I don’t understand."
Li Pan’s face was stern.
Liu Hu was silent for a moment, "I also suspect the Zhang Family. We’ll have to discuss it with the boss when we get back. But don’t worry about these things; we will definitely investigate to the end."
"Good. I can endure them coming after me, but if they mess with the people on my farm, they shouldn’t blame me for taking out the Zhang Family."
Li Pan let out a cold laugh.
Do they think I’m someone who lives off others? Ridiculous.
In fact, reaching a high-level merely signifies different focuses; it doesn’t mean there’s a lack of self-preservation capability.
Especially those superpower users with exceptional talents all have their own trump cards and secrets.
"Who else is injured? I’ll heal everyone."
Li Pan calmed down and offered to help.
"Sis, I’m hurt. Treat me, it’s quite painful."
Qian Xi came over with a smile, pretending to be injured, trying to lighten the mood.
"Thank you all for protecting me so fiercely. I wasn’t angry with you guys just now, but at those people. I was kind of stifled, sorry. I shouldn’t have lost my temper with you all."
Li Pan, recognizing her earlier attitude wasn’t exemplary, immediately apologized.
"Hey! We’re all family here; there’s no need for that. We’re not happy about it either, don’t mention it. We’ll talk it over with the boss when we get back; we can’t decide on our own."
"Right, I’ll heal everyone to ensure there are no lingering issues."
Li Pan treated each member of the squad who had been fighting earlier, and as they shifted to other topics, the atmosphere gradually became more relaxed.
Too busy to sleep all night, she was truly exhausted; as soon as she lay down, she fell asleep.
It was only then that Qian Xi leaned towards Liu Hu and whispered, "This isn’t over. It’s infuriating. If we didn’t need to bring them back for interrogation, I’d really feel like finishing them all off."
"Finish them off, and some people might just be thrilled, hoping we’d wipe them all out so they could feel secure. When we get back, interrogate them thoroughly, no mercy."
"Don’t worry, they won’t escape the temple gates."
Qian Xi snorted.
Today’s events were indeed disgusting, but they also saw Li Pan’s strength. Her Starry Sky Wood power was top-notch, not softhearted or confused, and as a person, she was tough and decisive. She truly deserved their protection.
After another day of driving, they finally arrived at Xinghai Base. Li Pan was well-rested by then, feeling not too bad despite the discomfort of the car ride, and in good spirits.
They first met with the leader of Xinghai Base.
"Base Commander, hello."
"Hello everyone, thank you for all your hard work. There are a few critically injured patients; could you please check on them first? I know you’ve all had a long journey and must be exhausted, but some may not make it if we wait. I apologize for the inconvenience."
The Base Commander bowed with an anxious face, apologizing for putting them to work immediately upon arrival without even offering a drink of water, which was quite impolite.
"Okay, I’ll go right now."
"Go get someone to prepare some food and bring some hot water for everyone to drink."
The Base Commander hurriedly gave instructions.
"Base Commander, we were ambushed on the road, had a bit of trouble, and were delayed for the whole night; otherwise, we could have arrived earlier."
"What happened, do you need me to lend a hand?"
"It might have something to do with the rich district, as you know they are always intricately involved in shady dealings, never short of causing trouble."
"Indeed, my side is no better, always up to no good, it’s beyond annoying. I have to sleep with one eye open, afraid of being plotted against."
The Base Commander’s brows twisted in frustration every time he brought up those people.
"It’s all the same, our Absolute Healing has a high value. She started her own farm, which now accounts for half of our base’s grain production, feeding quite a few people. The plants nurtured by a High-level Wood Element Superpower User are very beneficial to health. The rich district has set its sights on her, determined to either take her or see her dead. When we get back, we still need to conduct a further interrogation."
"If you need anything, just have Old Wang give me a call."
"Okay."
"What else does her farm sell? I’m short on supplies here too, short on all food and drink. But I’m not short on money, we can trade or I can pay."
"Grains, fruits and vegetables, wheat straw, cattle, sheep, and poultry, as well as processed products. Soon we’ll also be selling dairy products. Plus we have medicinal materials and Spiritual Medicines. Our boss instructed us before we left to ask for whatever you need. Our Panpan Farm is big and has a lot of stuff."
"Do you have a list?"
"We do."
"Take a look later, I don’t want you to come all this way for nothing. I’ll also get some supplies for my people at home, you can never have too much food."
The Base Commander happily expressed his intention to place an order.
Qian Xi nodded his head happily.
Nowadays, wherever they went on missions to any base, they would bring a list of goods from Panpan Farm, to promote and sell them.
Everyone volunteered to do this not because they could make money from it, but because they were willing to support Li Pan. They had often eaten her produce and received her care in the past, treating her like family and looking out for her.
Knowing she was under great pressure maintaining three farms and facing financial gaps, every team leader would take a list on their trips to show to the bosses of other bases, taking any orders they could get. Every cent earned was a cent gained.
Li Pan went in and treated everyone according to the severity and urgency of their conditions.
At the seaside base, their injured were in worse condition, with larger wounds, more poison and bite injuries – a horrifying sight, utterly cruel and terrible.
Li Pan worked straight until dawn, curing a group of critically ill patients on the spot.
The soldiers all stood before her and saluted, which completely swept away her bad mood and healed her spirits as well.
Seeing it was dawn, the Base Commander came to ask Li Pan to rest, to have some breakfast and sleep before continuing with the treatments, as it was unreasonable to expect someone to work nonstop without sleep.
The remaining cases were not as urgent, so they could wait a bit.
"Mr. Li, let’s go have some food and rest. The rest can wait."
"Alright."
"Everyone, my superpowers are depleted, I need to rest and recover. After I eat and rest a bit, I’ll come back to treat you all. Don’t worry, those of you who are waiting, your injuries are a piece of cake for me, that’s why you’ve been put on hold, not because I’m cherry-picking patients. I first treated those whose conditions could not wait. Don’t overthink it."
"Go and rest, Mr. Li, we’re not going to overthink it. You’ve come all the way to treat us, and we shouldn’t doubt you."
"That’s right, Mr. Li, go rest. You’re pale. We each know our own bodies, and a little while won’t be a problem."
"Thank you for understanding. Rest assured, now that I’m here, no matter how serious the injury, I can heal it."
"We believe in you."
Everyone was in a relaxed state. Last night, Li Pan had been busy choosing which patients to treat first, focusing on those with the fastest-developing and most serious conditions. Those who could wait were put aside for later.
With her continuous success in curing patients, everyone, even if sick, wasn’t in a rush anymore. In fact, they felt even more at ease.
