Huo Silou's proposal was not rejected.

But the additional proposal was not adopted by Chen Yuan either.

After taking a bath deep in the woods, the two returned to the car.

The small fish in the compartment clings tightly to the inside, as if asleep.

Except for the team members who are on guard, the entire convoy is also extremely quiet.

Huo Silou ignored the obviously stiff little fish, he only flattened the seat and helped Chen Yuan lie down before returning to the driver's seat.

Because using crutches consumes more energy than sitting in a wheelchair, Chen Yuan quickly fell asleep after closing his eyes.

It was early morning when he woke up again.

It was not yet bright outside the car window, but a few strands of golden light had penetrated the thick clouds and poured down, covering the contours of the ground.

The members of Lu Shaojun's team have already started preparations for departure.

"you're awake."

Chen Yuan turned to see Huo Silou.

Xiaoyu, who was forced to mute his voice, was finally freed after hearing these words. He got up and jumped out of the car with a grunt, "I'll go prepare breakfast for you!"

Chen Yuan and Huo Silou came down after him.

Lu Shaojun came over at the right time, "You guys are up too," he seemed in a good mood, "By the way, you haven't listened to the radio yet, have you? The red warning was canceled on the radio today, so that we will be on our way back to the base in a short time. Don't waste any more time."

That's good news.

"It is said that there seems to be a zombie of a higher level among the zombies, and there are zombies with supernatural powers." Lu Shaojun pouted and shook his head, "Sounds a bit bad, doesn't it? I haven't confirmed the news yet Is it true? If it is true, it will definitely be more dangerous to go out of the city in the future than it is now, and there is really no way for people to live..."

He complained, and was about to continue the discussion, when a call came from not far away, he answered loudly, had to say hello to the two people in front of him, and walked away quickly.

But it wasn't just Lu Shaojun, when Chen Yuan and Huo Silou came back from washing, they heard that most people were chatting about the bad news they heard on the radio.

For a team that relies on going out of the city to do missions, the increased danger of zombies is undoubtedly a fatal blow.

"Even zombies have supernatural powers? Then let us ordinary people kill a ball!"

"The zombies are getting rougher and thicker, but now they can awaken their abilities. I don't understand. It seems that they will evolve, and they can't be killed..."

"However, I also heard that Professor Huo Yuanyu is researching supernatural powers. Maybe when he succeeds in his research, ordinary people can also awaken supernatural powers. By then, killing zombies will not be a problem!"

"Their group of professors have been studying this and that all day long, but they haven't seen anything useful from their research. It's better to count on themselves than to count on them."

All the way back, this is not the first time Chen Yuan heard Huo Yuanyu's name.

He looked at Huo Silou, "Your father is very famous."

But when Huo Silou mentioned Huo Yuanyu, his tone was no different from that of a stranger, "He is indeed very important. Back then, it was he who developed a drug that could delay the infection of the human body by the zombie virus. If he didn't think that the strict protection measures of the central base interfered with his research, the central high-level officials would not let him go."

Chen Yuan walked to the trunk and sat down, "So, it is possible that he can research a method for ordinary people to awaken their abilities?"

Although Huo Yuanyu is not qualified to be a father, Huo Silou never underestimated his ability, "I can't rule out this possibility." After finishing speaking, Huo Silou added, "But even if he finds a way, he won't Deliver real actionable results."

"how?"

Huo Silou said: "Huo Yuanyu's experiments were never done for the benefit of mankind. Most of his research results are kept absolutely confidential. Back then, he handed over the medicine to suspend the zombie virus infection in exchange for funds for the experiment."

While the two were talking, Xiaoyu came over with two bowls of porridge, and he ran aside to open a canned vegetable at the lowest price.

Chen Yuan threw a can of meat, and then continued: "You mean, Huo Yuanyu's research results are all sealed by him, so what is the purpose of his research?"

"No one knows." Huo Silou said, "There are only a few people in and out of his laboratory."

"Where are only a few people coming and going?"

Lu Shaojun came over from behind the car again. He asked with a smile, and didn't intend to hear the answer, but instead said, "I'm leaving soon, let me see how Brother Huo's injury is doing, is he better?" ?”

Huo Silou raised his right hand to take the porridge bowl in his left, and said in a cold voice, "No."

Lu Shaojun: "..."

He watched the scene just now happen, but didn't know what to say, so he said awkwardly, "Actually, I don't mean anything else..."

Huo Silou only looked at him.

There didn't seem to be any kindness in those pitch-black eyes.

Lu Shaojun took back the rest of the words silently, and said: "We are about to set off, the two brothers should also prepare." Then he turned and walked towards his own car.

After he left, Chen Yuan put the empty bowl beside him, "Is your injury still not healed?"

When Huo Silou answered again, he hesitated a little more, he thought about his words, "It's getting better, but it's not better yet."

Chen Yuan glanced at him.

Huo Silou said nonsense, "There is something wrong with the knife Peng Xingzhi is using. It's not a big problem."

"Is it poisonous?" Chen Yuan frowned slightly, "Why didn't you tell me yesterday, there should be an antidote on him."

Huo Silou responded calmly, "Peng Xingzhi has been causing trouble for us, I don't think he will give me the antidote. Besides, I'm not seriously injured, I just need to rest for a while." After that, he changed the subject, "We should get in the car gone."

"Ah."

What he said made sense, and Chen Yuan didn't have any doubts about him.

However, the period of recuperation that Huo Silou said took a full fifteen days.

On the way, the convoy encountered groups of zombies several times. Every time Lu Shaojun came to ask Huo Silou, he always got the same result. Follow Chen Yuan to look at the scenery everywhere.

Fortunately, after the red warning was removed, the number of zombies gathered was no longer as large as before, and it did not bring too much pressure to everyone.

In addition, he used the excuse of caring about Huo Silou's injury to make money every day for fifteen days, so he was too embarrassed to express any dissatisfaction with it.

By the afternoon of the No. 16 day, everyone in the convoy had already seen the majestic city wall of the No. [-] base in the distance.

Some even climbed onto the roof and cheered.

Xiaoyu was also a little excited, "It's Base No. [-], we'll be there soon!"

Huo Silou looked calm, and he said to Chen Yuan: "Let's go to the hotel first. After I find Si An and settle him down, no matter where you want to go, I will accompany you."

Chen Yuan didn't give him a definite answer, "We'll talk about it later."

Huo Silou pursed his thin lips.

It was quiet again in the car.

Before officially arriving at the No. [-] base, Lu Shaojun, who had been in front of the convoy, suddenly slowed down. He turned around and drove forward with the car driven by Huo Silou, "Brothers, are you interested in joining our team?"

There was no need for Chen Yuan to speak about this matter, Huo Silou bluntly refused, "No, thank you."

Lu Shaojun was not surprised. He tried it by chance. He only said: "Well, I'm going to the city soon. It should be difficult to meet again in the future. I wish you good luck." Then he stepped on the gas pedal , and drove into the independent inspection area of ​​the No. [-] base together with the rest of the companions.

Huo Silou drove through another passage.

The content of the inspection at Base No. [-] was similar to the previous few times, but Chen Yuan had already been able to walk independently without any tools, so it didn't have any impact.

After entering the city, the two went to the hotel first.

When checking in, a thin man wearing glasses frowned and looked over for a long time before hesitatingly saying, "Huo Silou?"

Huo Silou followed the sound and turned around.

The man's eyes lit up, "Si Lou, it's really you!"

Huo Silou didn't show his emotions so obviously, he only introduced to Chen Yuan, "This is Zhang Jia. I mentioned to you before that he is doing research on fruits."

Only then did Zhang Jia notice Chen Yuan standing beside Huo Silou, and he paused slightly, "Who is this?"

"Chen Yuan, my love." After saying these four words, Huo Silou's lips curved slightly, "We are already married."

Zhang Jia was stunned, "You..." Before he could react, "Are you married to a man?"

Huo Silou looked at Chen Yuan's profile, "In the last days, is it so strange for men to marry men?"

"But that's—" Zhang Jia wanted to say something, but was suppressed by Huo Silou's sudden gaze, so he just smiled dryly, "It's nothing unusual, it's normal..."

Huo Silou said to Chen Yuan: "He always makes a fuss, you don't have to worry about it."

Zhang Jia: "..."

He saw that Huo Silou really cared about Chen Yuan, so he took the initiative to introduce himself, "Hello, Mr. Chen, the new batch of fruits I cultivated will soon ripen. If you are interested, I hope you can come to my laboratory and see you." See them." Speaking of this, his smile is much more natural, and his attitude is very enthusiastic, "My ability is the most useless one in the plant system, but it has one of the biggest advantages, that is, it can ripen fruits and vegetables. If you What kind of fruit do you like, I can give you a batch in the shortest possible time."

Chen Yuan was indeed interested, "Thank you, I will go."

Zhang Jia waved his hand, "What are you being polite about, we are all brothers."

What Huo Silou didn't like to see the most was other people's enthusiasm for Chen Yuan. When he spoke, he meant something, "Chen Yuan and I just came back from outside the city, so we don't have time to listen to you talking about this."

Zhang Jia looked stunned, "Yes, of course, you don't have time to talk about my research now!"

Huo Silou's slightly cold brows and eyes slightly turned.

During this period of time, Chen Yuan's leg injury has basically healed, and there are very few opportunities for him to help with anything, and the time he can spend alone has been reduced again and again. Now that he has finally come to Base No. [-], he absolutely does not want to be disturbed.

But just as he was about to speak, Zhang Jia said again: "You must have serious business to do when you come to Base No. [-]. Tell me quickly. Is there anything I can do to help?"

Huo Silou: "..."

Perhaps his unclear expression reminded Zhang Jia of something, the latter blinked, and suddenly patted his forehead, "Look at me! There are so many people here, so of course it's not convenient to talk about business. Let's go to your room and take your time." Talk slowly."

Huo Silou's expression sank again and again.

He was about to let Zhang Jia leave first when he heard Chen Yuan's voice.

"Let's go." Chen Yuan said softly, "I need to take a bath."

Zhang Jia nodded, "That's right, the journey is so hard, it's time to take a bath and relax."

Huo Silou quietly darkened his face.

But Zhang Jia followed Chen Yuan to the elevator, and he vaguely heard Zhang Jia's voice.

"You wash slowly, don't worry, Si Lou can tell me about the situation first..."
