When the apocalypse comes, salted fish will only make bubbles

Time passed by second by second, and a ray of early morning sunlight shone in from the window, just falling on Pei Chonglin's face.

He unconsciously raised his hand to block the light, and when he looked at Qu Linqing again, the emotion just now was gone from his eyes.

"We shouldn't waste time on meaningless arguments. Linqing, I know what I want to do. I hope you won't stop me anymore."

He said calmly, but his tone was unquestionable and firm.

Hearing this, Qu Linqing closed his eyes, thinking that he had tried so hard to persuade him to stay, but he still couldn't make him change his mind.

What a failure!

He moved his lips, hesitated for a long time, and finally turned away in frustration:

"But I still hope you can distinguish priorities. If the situation is unclear, as the leader, you can't leave me and take risks."

His tone softened, but he still had to stick to the basic principles.

After all, he is the core of this mission. According to normal procedures, what Pei Chonglin has to do at this moment is to spare no effort to continue leading the team forward and escort him out of the desert.

The subsequent crisis has always existed, and naturally there will be people to deal with the aftermath.

No matter how confident Pei Chonglin is, it is still unnecessary. Forgive him for not agreeing.

After a long stalemate, Pei Chonglin felt deeply powerless. He wanted to go directly and knock Qu Linqing unconscious.

He didn't understand why he had to deal with him here for so long.

It was obviously a very simple thing, but it didn't make sense when it came to Qu Linqing.

The key is why he must ask for his consent for what he wants to do.

It's true that he came to protect him, but there are thousands of ways to protect a person, and he has to be inseparable!

Pei Chonglin wanted to fall out in person, but considering the trouble later, he finally held back.

"You also said that I am the leader, so I must go."

"Pei Chonglin! Why are you so stubborn!"

Qu Linqing finally couldn't hold it any longer, slammed the car door, and yelled at him with red eyes:

"I'm stopping you for your own good, and for Uncle Pei and Aunt Shen in the Imperial Capital. Don't forget, they only have a son like you. If you don't think about yourself, you have to think about them!"

Qu Linqing still used the tricks he used when he was a child. Pei Chonglin was indifferent to his advice, but he knew Pei Chonglin's weaknesses.

After listening to the song, Linqing directly moved his parents out, which made Pei Chonglin speechless.

Returning alive was what his parents expected of him, and Pei Chonglin always kept this in mind.

However, if they can't even figure out what's going on with the zombies behind them, they're leaving a big problem.

In this case, let alone returning to the imperial capital alive, I am afraid that I may not be able to get through this desert.

However, when he glanced at the satellite image again, his eyes widened suddenly.

"The red zone is getting smaller!"

There was unconcealable surprise in his tone, and then he leaned in front of the screen to take a closer look.

Qu Linqing was confused: "What?"

Pei Chonglin stared at the screen and said solemnly: "This should be the latest imaging. If there is not a problem with the satellite detector, then there is a problem with the zombies."

Without waiting for Qu Linqing to respond, he made the decision without any doubt: "So, don't stop me anymore, I have to go!"

Qu Linqing was stunned for a moment, but he didn't say anything. He just left the car door and came to the screen to observe the situation.

With just one glance, his expression became solemn.

Something really isn't right.

There was clearly a large frozen red area before, but there has been almost no change in the past two hours at least.

But it was obviously shrunk in the display at this moment.

If the changes in zombies cause the capture response of satellite detectors, then this change should represent a decrease in the number of zombies.

But, how is this possible?

How come the tens of thousands of zombies have mysteriously decreased?

At this time, Pei Chonglin had already arrived at the door. He turned back to look at Qu Linqing: "Zombies don't disappear for no reason. It's hard to say whether they disappeared or not. I think you also want to know the answer, so just wait here for me. Bar!"

"Ah."

No matter how many reasons there are, it is difficult for Qu Linqing to say them out at this time.

He had indeed been willful just now, and the effect was not good.

After trying in every possible way, he had no choice but to give up.

But before Pei Chonglin left, he still stopped him: "Wait a moment!"

"how?"

Qu Linqing quickly took out a bag from the cabinet and handed it directly to Pei Chonglin: "Put this on, just in case!"

"Protective clothing?"

Pei Chonglin opened it and took a look. Just as he was about to refuse, he was interrupted by Qu Linqing: "Either you stay, or you put it on and leave. It's your choice!"

"..."

Pei Chonglin had no intention of continuing to argue with him. He was silent and had no choice but to say, "Okay, then I'll go to the car and put them on."

"Chonglin!" Qu Linqing's voice sounded again.

"What's wrong?" Pei Chonglin's last trace of patience was about to run out.

"Your own safety is the most important thing, if..."

Qu Linqing ignored his impatience, tried hard to find the right words, and then hesitated: "I mean if...if Li Ying can't be found, don't delay yourself."

Hearing this, Pei Chonglin's eyes flashed with surprise: "Linqing you..."

Qu Linqing actually guessed it!

Qu Linqing shrugged and smiled: "Zhu Daneng came to see you several times this night. I know he was helping you find Li Ying, but he never found him.

I guess another reason why you are so anxious to go out is that you want to find him in person! "

Although they went outside to talk every time, Qu Linqing had quietly observed that Pei Chonglin was restless all night.

Zhu Daneng comes once and his eyes light up.

But when we got back to the car, the light went out.

The person who has always been the most shy person turned out to be very emotional for Li Ying.

Qu Linqing saw it in his eyes and tasted it in his heart.

This was one of the reasons why he kept holding on to Pei Chonglin.

He had a hunch that once Pei Chonglin found Li Ying.

He is afraid that he will no longer be qualified to tangle with Pei Chonglin in the future.

However, the truth is cruel. He tried his best, put down his face, and even moved out Pei Chonglin's parents, but he could not shake him one bit.

"That's right." Pei Chonglin admitted frankly.

"I'm not worried about Li Ying being alone. Okay, I'm leaving."

Without much explanation, Pei Chonglin got out of the car without saying a word.

As the night passed, his heart was still worried about Li Ying. Before setting off, he told Zhu Daneng to continue looking for Li Ying.

However, he led his people to search almost all the people gathered, but no trace of Li Ying was found.

This made him have to worry about his safety, worried that he had gone in the wrong direction in a panic, worried that he would fight with others to protect the camel, and even worried that he would have an accident on the way.

Seeing that the situation of the zombies was becoming more and more weird, Pei Chonglin could no longer care about it. Yes, he just wanted to find Li Ying himself.

Even if his parents come, they can't stop him...
