Chapter 819: 434 Meet familiar faces again

After unexpectedly seeing Shen Xin, Bai Ye felt a strong sense of crisis in his heart. Fang Yuxin and Fang Yuyang were originally not very clear about Shen Xi’s abilities, but after hearing his explanation, they also began to worry.

Fang Yuxin still remembers the look Shen Xi gave her back then. Although he seemed gentle and weak, his eyes made her feel extremely dangerous. Especially that look, as if he wanted to dissect her, made her very disgusted.

However, at that time, Shen Xi was after all someone from Bai Ye’s team, and he hadn’t done anything yet, so even if she was disgusted in her heart, she couldn’t really do anything to him. Unexpectedly, Shen Xi actually had such great abilities!

But now he is likely staying in Zhao Qiankun’s research institute, and it would not be easy to kill him. Moreover, this matter does not necessarily have to be done by themselves.

Fang Yuxin quickly thought of a countermeasure and suggested, "Now Qiu Yiming is the captain of the Thunder Mercenary Corps, and the predecessor of Thunder Mercenary Corps is the White Wolf Mercenary Corps! Although the White Wolf Mercenary Corps suffered heavy losses due to the last incident in Luyun County, until now, the strength of Thunder Mercenary Corps is still inferior to the Qiankun Mercenary Group. But Qiu Yiming is always calculating, if Zhao Qiankun wasn’t relying on those magical things in his hands, he definitely wouldn’t be a match for Qiu Yiming. Now Qiu Yiming and Zhao Qiankun are in a standoff at Beishi Base, and sooner or later there will be a conflict between the two. In that case, why not leak the news about Zhao Qiankun to him."

Bai Ye and Fang Yuyang subconsciously looked at her. Bai Ye pondered for a moment and said hesitantly, "This plan is not bad, but Qiu Yiming is not foolish. If we leak the news to him, he will surely be suspicious!" In truth, he wasn’t worried about Qiu Yiming being suspicious, he was only concerned that Qiu Yiming would follow the trail to find out about Fang Yuxin, and then come to trouble her.

Fang Yuyang immediately saw what he was worried about, so he said, "Let’s solve Fang Mengyao’s matter first, and then leak this news to Qiu Yiming, and then leave Beishi Base. Xinxin is right, two tigers cannot share one mountain. Qiu Yiming and Zhao Qiankun are bound to have a fight eventually. Even if Qiu Yiming knows that the person giving him the information has ulterior motives, he can only deal with Zhao Qiankun as we planned."

Upon hearing this, Bai Ye felt relieved and considered Fang Yuyang’s suggestion to be a good one.

While the three of them were talking, Shen Xin had already boarded a pedal rickshaw. This type of rickshaw became popular in Beishi Base after the apocalypse. Given the cost of gasoline and diesel nowadays, everyone tries to save where they can, but in a large base like Beishi, relying solely on walking could take ages to get anywhere.

Coincidentally, the base has many ordinary people who need a way to earn a living, otherwise the whole base would descend into chaos sooner or later. So, someone came up with the idea of these pedal rickshaws. All the rickshaw pullers are ordinary people with some strength. While they have some strength, they are not capable of going out to kill zombies; pulling a rickshaw, though hard labor, earns them a decent income by the end of the day, allowing them to barely make ends meet.

And for some families with better living conditions, especially those superpower users’ families, while they are still ordinary people, they live much more comfortably than others. When they go out and don’t feel like walking, they can take one of these pedal rickshaws.

Gradually, these pedal rickshaws became a distinctive feature of Beishi Base.

Seeing Shen Xin get on a rickshaw, the three hesitated for a moment and then followed her. After all, the rickshaw puller was just an ordinary person; no matter how fast he ran, he couldn’t outrun the three mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators. The three of them concealed their presence, their toes lightly gliding over the snow without leaving a trace, effortlessly following behind Shen Xin.

All three assumed Shen Xin was going to visit Shen Xi at the institute, but upon following her, they found she was actually going shopping on the commercial street, specifically doing so at a cosmetics store.

At the beginning of the apocalypse, those who survived had no mind for self-dressing, wandering listlessly, fearful of being eaten by zombies if they slipped up. Until later, when various Safe Zones were established, although the outside remained extremely dangerous, the inside of the Safe Zones became relatively much safer.

Gradually, some women who were living relatively better off began focusing on their appearance, especially those relying on their looks to survive— these women were particularly concerned with this. So, as the base became more stable, specialized cosmetics stores emerged on the commercial street, specifically selling to these appearance-conscious women.
