The rookie returns and flies in the apocalypse

The helicopter was hovering high in the sky. Ning Qiang motioned Zuo Ling to look down and said with a smile:

"Here we are, take a look, does it look familiar?"

More than 20 super-large, large, and medium-sized warships were lined up in a row. On the decks of the ships, rows of naval guns, military trucks, and large containers were piled high.

There are countless large and small ships, yachts, motorboats and the like around. At first glance, it looks a bit like a city made of ships. Before you get close, you can hear human voices.

On the outermost side, surrounded by several green plots, the vast sea looks like a dazzling green gem.

From time to time, you can see crowds of people coming and going, giving the place a glimpse of its former prosperity.

"Did you see that?"

Zuo Ling was puzzled, she didn't remember being here.

Pei Nansheng seemed to be thinking about something.

“The former site of Kyoto.”

Zuo Ling was surprised, while Pei Nansheng looked as if he had known this would happen.

Xiao Hao leaned his head forward and looked down hard. He was trying to find where Noah's Ark was, but how could he find it in the clear waters?

The Ning family’s base was actually built on the ruins of Kyoto, and their ambitions were obvious.

Ning Qiang chuckled: "Do you think my Ning family is too ambitious?"

Zuo Ling raised her eyebrows. Isn’t it?

"Why don't you say that our Ning family would rather die than leave our homeland, which is better than the Bai family who ran away when they saw that the situation was not right?"

Zuo Ling said nothing.

Ning Qiang smiled and said no more.

The helicopter landed on a medium-sized warship.

The arrival of Ning Qiang and his party attracted many inquiring glances, especially when they saw a wolf, a dog and a rabbit, they all showed surprise.

From time to time, someone would greet Ning Qiang, and Ning Qiang would respond indifferently, with just the right amount of pride for a kid from a reclusive family.

After going around in circles, we went up to the third floor, where a naval lieutenant came up to greet us, "Second Master."

Ning Qiang nodded and asked him, "How is my uncle?"

The man glanced at Zuo Ling and the others and said, "I know you're back. The master has been waiting for you."

Ning Qiang pushed the door open and walked in, followed by Zuo Ling. Pei Nansheng and Xiao Hao were stopped outside.

Zuo Ling said nothing and looked at Ning Qiang.

Ning Qiang changed his usual playful expression and said, "My uncle is not in good health. He has something to tell you. It is not convenient for him to meet too many people."

Pei Nansheng said coldly:

"If you don't want to see us, you don't have to. Don't think you can control us just because you are in your Ning family's territory."

Xiao Hao cooperated by humming loudly, and the dog followed suit with a bark. Ah Si wagged his tail, and his wolf eyes flashed coldly.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Waterfall jumped onto the dog and then pounced on Zuo Ling.

The major pulled out his gun, and the two soldiers outside the door raised their gun barrels and aimed directly at Pei Nansheng and Xiao Hao.

Xiao Hao was a young and inexperienced man, and wanted to take action immediately, but was held back by Pei Nansheng.

"My Ning family has no ill will towards you. Sister Zuo will know when she meets my uncle. Some things and some people are not convenient for too many people to know."

Ning Qiang meant something.

After a moment of silence, Zuo Ling stuffed the rabbit into Xiao Hao's hand and said, "Wait for me here. I'll be back soon."

Xiao Hao said anxiously: "Sister..."

Zuo Ling waved her hands, "Don't worry, sister is not someone you can easily bully, you guys should be fine."

He glanced at Pei Nansheng and gave him a reassuring look.

"Let's go."

Ning Qiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid of a fight.

Others don’t know, but he knows the abilities of Zuo Ling and his sister. He looked at Xiao Hao deeply, especially this one, who could kill people without being seen. It was so scary!

Following Ning Qiang through three doors in a row, Zuo Ling had something on her mind and didn't take what was happening outside to heart.

Finally, Ning Qiang stopped in front of a wooden carved door.

He straightened his clothes and rang the doorbell. A nurse in white holding a medical tray opened the door.

The nurse was obviously very familiar with Ning Qiang. She pointed inside, nodded at Zuo Ling with a smile, and left quietly.

Inside was a large and luxurious suite, with a circle of sofas for guests outside, covered with thick, soft carpets that made no sound when stepped on.

Inside the reception room is a study room filled with the scent of ink. On the walls of the study are hung several pieces of unrestrained cursive script and many paintings of different sizes.

When Zuo Ling saw those paintings, her heart sank.

Half of the painting depicts a young woman in her twenties, whose eyebrows and eyes are about 60% similar to Zuo Ling's.

Whether the woman is angry, smiling, furious, or shy, she is painted vividly.

The other half is landscape paintings, including the sunrise over Huangshan, the Qilian Snow Mountain, the red leaves of Xiangshan, the Guilin landscape, the Dai bamboo houses, and the ancient city of Pingyao...

In each painting, there is a back view of one or two people. The back view is painted in an inconspicuous place and if you are not careful, it is easy to be missed by the strong and realistic colors.

Zuo Ling didn’t understand painting, but she had been to many of the places in the paintings, and some of them she had just glanced at while on a shopping spree.

At that moment, she understood the painter's intention. Every stroke of the brush revealed the sadness of trying to preserve the past.

Ning Qiang did not rush to knock on the door of the innermost room. He waited patiently for Zuo Ling to finish looking at all the paintings.

Retracting his gaze, Zuo Ling suppressed his turbulent emotions.

Ning Qiang knocked on the door, "Uncle, I'm coming in."

Without waiting for a response from inside, Ning Qiang pushed the door open.

Several instruments were ticking, and two beds were placed side by side.

On a bed, there lay a woman with all kinds of tubes inserted into her body.

The woman was pale and thin, with sunken eye sockets, like a piece of skin wrapped around a skeleton.

Zuo Ling looked at her steadily.

With just one look, she knew that it was her...biological mother!

Zuo Ling had no memory of her, and seeing her like this, he did not feel the slightest bit of sadness.

My eyes moved to another bed, where a skinny old man was lying.

The old man was so thin that his cheekbones were prominent, his silver hair was combed meticulously, and his eyes were deep.

Looking at his age, Zuo Ling believed that he was 80.

There was a hint of disgust in the old man's eyes when he looked at Zuo Ling. He concealed it very well, but Zuo Ling still noticed it.

Ning Qiang tactfully retreated.

"Why is she here?"

Zuo Ling seemed to be asking an irrelevant person.

The disgust in the old man's eyes grew stronger and he drooped his eyelids. Perhaps because of his emotional fluctuations, he coughed a little violently and couldn't control it no matter how hard he tried.

The instruments beeped, and two doctors and several nurses rushed in. One of them thought Zuo Ling was blocking the way and rudely pushed her aside.

The nurse who had just met Zuo Ling helped her up apologetically.

Ning Qiang rushed in, looked around, and said angrily: "What did you say? You made my uncle so angry."

Zuo Ling rolled her eyes at him and said, "I asked her why she was here, and that's it."

Ning Qiang looked unconvinced.

"believe it or not."

Zuo Ling crossed his arms and looked coldly at the medical staff busying around.

The old man finally stopped coughing and waved his hand weakly, signaling everyone to go out.

A doctor said:

"Mr. Ning, you can't get too excited now. If you have anything to say, put it aside for later."

As he spoke, he looked in Zuo Ling's direction with an unfriendly look.

"It's okay, go out."

Unable to convince the old man, the doctor walked up to Zuo Ling with an arrogant attitude and said with his chin raised:

"I don't care who you are. Old Ning's body can't stand the stimulation. You'd better be careful. If something goes wrong, you can't afford it."

Zuo Ling sneered and ignored him completely.

"I didn't come here because I wanted to. You invited me here. Don't think you can control me just because she's here."

After saying that, he turned and left.

“Cough, cough, cough, cough, stop…stop her, quickly, quickly.”

The old man coughed violently and almost coughed out his heart, liver, spleen and lungs.

Ning Qiang grabbed Zuo Ling and said, "Don't go, don't go. I apologize on his behalf. He is a doctor and he only has patients in his eyes. Don't argue with him."

Zuo Ling snorted and continued walking out.

“Stop, stop… cough, cough, cough…”

The coughing behind me became more intense.

The nurse exclaimed: "Oh, he's vomiting blood again."

"Zuo Ling, please, my uncle won't live for many days. If it weren't for... Do you know how old my uncle is this year? He did it for you... please!"

Ning Qiang pleaded.

Zuo Ling closed her eyes and finally stopped.

The doctor knew that he had offended the wrong person, but he refused to admit his mistake and walked out with a red face.

Only Zuo Ling and the old man were left in the house... no, there was also a living dead man.

Zuo Ling frowned and looked down at her toes.

The old man panted for a long time before he evened out his breath, raised his hand, and then put it down again.

"Your personality is very much like your mother, not your idiot father."

Zuo Ling turned her head and said, "If you want to curse my idiot father, just go ahead. I promise not to talk back."

"I have never figured it out. You have been hostile to the Ding family from the beginning. At that time, you didn't even know the Ding family. Where did your hostility come from?"

The old man tried hard to suppress his cough and his breathing was heavy.

Zuo Ling didn't answer.

The old man didn't care and continued:

"Pei Nansheng is an elite child trained by the Ding family. The Ding family didn't treat him well, but they didn't treat him badly either. How did you convince him to rebel against the Ding family?"

Zuo Ling was stubborn and still didn't answer.

I don’t know what the old man was thinking of, but a smile flashed in his eyes.

"I helped you."

Zuo Ling looked at the old man and finally talked about a topic that interested her.

The old man didn't keep it a secret:

"You came to Stone City to gamble on stones, and the Ding family came to check on you, but I wiped them out."

Zuo Ling's eyes darkened. The old man knew her at that moment. His gaze shifted to the woman on the bed. Because of her? Was that...

"Yes, I know everything you have done since you were a child."

The old man paused and added:

"To be precise, I know everything you did before the end of the world."

Zuo Linghan's hair stood on end.
