Chapter 376 375. The biggest secret [two-in-one]
Huaiyu had a wonderful dream.
Not only did she see the home and vegetable patch in the distance, but it also made her understand another function of the Rose Corridor. She felt so happy when she woke up at this moment.
"Brother Zhou Qian!"
She poked her head out of the carriage: "What are you going to eat today?"
This was the morning of her third day back. When she woke up, besides sweet dreams, she was also hungry. Zhou Qian immediately responded: "Are you awake? Clean up and have breakfast."
His cooking skills are still not trustworthy, but fortunately he never innovates at critical moments. For example, the current noodle soup is quite satisfactory, with finely shredded cabbage, minced lard residue, and mashed potatoes added to it - Huaiyu It was reborn over a month after I came back.
Following Huaiyu's instructions, only salt was added to the seasoning. Now it tasted light and fragrant. Huaiyu instantly felt extremely satisfied.
"Have you rested?"
Zhou Qian looked at her with gentle eyes.
Huaiyu:......
She blinked, put the bowl down, and sat still: "Not yet. I'm too tired this time. It may take a long time..."
Zhou Qian was speechless. The gentle warmth he had just born was gone. At this moment, he put away the dishes: "I didn't ask you to wash the dishes! Just take good care of yourself - oh! You can wash your own clothes later. I can't twist it." Call me again.”
Huaiyu frowned, but finally went to work with a hum.
Fortunately, she had exercised somewhat this time, and now she was quite energetic after having had enough sleep and food. While moving a small horse to rub her clothes, she directed Zhou Qian to add hot water to it, and at the same time, she also gave Kataro a hand. yellow-green krona ball.
He threw it into the basin.
A peculiar aroma of vegetation ripples along the hot water. It is very light, not unpleasant to say, but quite unique.
Zhou Qian couldn't help but said: "Don't throw everything away..."
"It doesn't matter!" Huaiyu is now very open-minded: "Anyway, Kataro won't harm us, right? Kataro?"
Kataro stood aside and his antennae moved, then turned around and went back to work.
The big fat guy emerged from the soil at some point, panting from exhaustion and explaining at the same time: "It's...it's me...me!"
It's getting cold, and the soil in the wasteland is freezing. It's not so easy for it to get in and out, and it's quite laborious.
Zhou Qian didn't know why: "It's you, what next?"
"Oops!" Huaiyu became anxious: "Brother Zhou Qian, did you not chat with them at all when I was away? Big Fatty means that this ball belongs to him!"
"Isn't it big fat?"
Little Stutter nodded heavily, and the leaves rustling above his head were much sparser.
Zhou Qian was stunned for a while before he realized: "Could it be the leaves on your head?"
The fat man nodded again: "Winter, winter is here! It's going to wither, wither, and fall!"
As a mutated ginseng tree, it is already remarkable that it can last until now without withering and dropping yellow leaves, okay?
Zhou Qian: ...Actually, he has quite a lot of communication with these guys - Huaiyu doesn't have much communication either!
She has so many things to do, things to play and people to talk to every day, how can she have time to accompany her every day? But she was able to understand the other party's meaning seamlessly, which made her seem very careless.
He decided to skip this topic and asked instead: "Have you visited Lin Xuefeng?"
Huaiyu said "ah": "I fell asleep!"
Forgot such an important person.
Zhou Qian was helpless. He could only say at this moment: "It's okay. I can't see anything. The cocoon hasn't opened yet."
Even so, after all, he was the person he had worked so hard to bring back. After Huaiyu finished washing his clothes, he still squatted beside the tree cocoon and looked at it seriously for a long time.
He even reached out and touched the cool tree cocoon.
After a moment, she turned around and asked Zhou Qian: "Brother Zhou Qian, do you think this is the root of the Rose Corridor? Or is it alien technology?"
"You used this to repair when you were seriously injured. Lin Xuefeng also uses this to repair now. I also came out of here after being half dead..."
Zhou Qian didn't even raise his head: "You don't care who she is, just tell her whether she is alive or not - wait a minute, how do you know you came out of it half-dead?"
Huaiyu was confused: "Ah, didn't I tell you? After I fell into the underground river, I dreamed of her before..."
She became angry again when she talked about this. At this moment, Lin Xuefeng didn't care anymore and sat directly next to the fire, angrily telling Zhou Qian everything that happened to Huaiyu before.
Zhou Qian was equally furious.
But unlike Huaiyu who showed his emotions openly, after two long separations, his emotions are now more tolerable and calm. At this moment, while he was calmly fidgeting with firewood, veins suddenly appeared on the back of his hands.
After Huaiyu finished speaking, he sat back down with a stable mood, and then comforted him: "But brother Zhou Qian, don't worry, didn't you say that you planted elm mushrooms all over his body? He won't be able to please him."
She thought of the other person's appearance as a skinny and long mushroom bag, and she became happy again.
But Zhou Qian frowned: "That's wrong."
"Wu Yue once revealed that his ex-girlfriend had left a suicide note. If, like what you saw in your dream, he fainted, and you were also exhausted and didn't know whether to live or die..."
This doesn't make sense.
Even if the garrison didn't notice Wu Yue when they first took her away, they would definitely go up the mountain again and find her nearby. It's impossible for such a big living person to disappear.
But that Huai Yu disappeared without a trace, and the most crucial link seemed to be missing——
What's wrong?
……
At the same time, Wu Yue, who was still hanging on for dear life in the medical cabin, had become as thin as a skeleton as Huaiyu thought. Even if a large amount of nutrients are delivered to his body every day, he can't handle the steady stream of yellow mushrooms he picks and continues to grow.
From the fear at the beginning to the numbness in the later stage, now when the knife was used and after looking at it for a long time, they all felt that the yellow elm mushroom was fresh and tender in color and had a certain taste...
Bah bah bah!
The removal surgery must have been done for a long time, and people have become abnormal! How can you eat this?
You have to wait for it to be cultivated anyway! They took the medical cabin out of the operating room in a familiar manner. Facing Wu Yue's mother waiting outside, they couldn't help but have a headache again.
But the other party did not immediately pay attention to his increasingly thin son. He just took Wu Yue's communicator and studied it repeatedly. At this moment, he pulled the doctor again:
"My son hasn't woken up yet. He is a military officer! What do you do for food? Such a minor injury cannot be cured yet... Also, where is your dean? Let him give me a prescription. I need to provide a certificate to clarify the physical condition of our family Wu Yue. I have to go to the bank to handle business..."
As she spoke, her expression gradually became urgent: "He was so seriously injured this time, why haven't the subsidies and compensation been paid yet? Who should pay it? That girl named Bai?"
Just as he was talking, he heard the doctors saying hello: "Commander Bai."
Bai Yu's familiar face appeared in front of everyone. When the old lady looked at her, she always felt that she looked brave and brave in uniform. She was not at all like the Bai family member in her impression who deliberately came to her because of her son's excellence.
However, the most important thing now is compensation!
"Bai Yu! We are neighbors. Your aunt is taller than your aunt every day. But if something happens to Wu Yue, I will withhold the compensation, right?"
Bai Yu's mood was stable and his face remained calm - anyone would become like this after dealing with so many messes.
She smiled steadily: "Auntie, you are joking."
"First of all, due to the interruption of this wasteland operation, the continuous transfer of logistics caused us a lot of losses. There were also interruptions in communication with the mutant plants that had been explored and negotiated for cooperation, and the road sections collapsed..."
"For the above, because the responsibility for General Wu's unconsciousness has not yet been clearly defined, there is no talk of compensation."
"Second coming..."
She looked at the old lady in front of her who was wearing a designer suit from six years ago, and her expression became even more profound: "General Wu is still alive, how can we talk about compensation at this time? We, the garrison, are already obliged to do these things."
In fact, in terms of age, the old lady in front of her is not considered old in this day and age.
But although she was keen on dressing up, her old appearance couldn't stop her. Especially the heavy air of twilight and the decadent ideas that couldn't be sealed in her body made it so that everyone who met her could only call her "old lady" after thinking about it.
Although she was dissatisfied, on the one hand she felt that it was a symbol of her noble status, so she did not resent the title.
Look at that outfit again - in this day and age, most clothes made of ordinary fabrics are just basic daily necessities, and there are no famous brands.
But there is also a small group of people who are coaxed by the merchants and once again promote some big brands - fashionable clothes like these 6 years ago that were dug out of unknown ruins can now be sold at high prices.
The reason why the old lady was so anxious had nothing to do with the high price of the clothes. After all, every thread on it represents naked points.
Now another month or two has passed, and seeing how anxious the old lady is, she must be in debt, right?
Bai Yu was really conservative about this.
At this point, the old lady is not only heavily in debt, she is almost unable to hold on to her bottom line.
The news of Wu Yue's injury was not completely hidden - he was not Lin Xuefeng. He had a high reputation among the people, and his presence could ignite everyone's confidence in fighting against the wasteland.
As a mediocre garrison officer after taking office, he really has no outstanding achievements except Rose Corridor. Therefore, after the news of the injury came out, everyone's reaction was very flat.
But for loan sharks, this is not good news.
You know, when they lend money, they also have to measure the strength of the other party. If you are a poor man with nothing, you can't sell him to work as a coolie in this era - mainly because there are so many people with super powers, this kind of person is not worth much.
Then if they take out a loan, they will go out nine times and come back thirteen times. If they want money, they will die. Isn't it a loss of blood?
We are all serious lending companies!
Therefore, the old lady is so old, has no business in production, and does not have any suitable family background, but they are able to pay out tens of thousands of contribution points one by one. Isn’t it because of his son who is a garrison officer? ?
At the beginning, the company's boss really didn't intend to ask her to repay the money, so just borrow it as you like. Everything in this world has a price. It's just money. If you can buy a guard officer to help at a critical moment, you don't know how much money in the world. People want to do this business.
Even if you don’t use it now, it’s okay to put it there for convenience at any time to bring you closer.
But the premise of all this is that Wu Yue must live well and be in a high position.
Now that they heard that the other party was seriously injured and had not woken up for several months, and that it was also the most difficult mushroom parasite, the people in the lending company couldn't sit still.
They were very measured. The old lady had been overdue for several months before going to the wilderness. They couldn't make it too obvious that they were fishing for big fish for a long time, so at first they just followed the rules, behaved, and were polite. In some cases, notices are sent to the old lady on the repayment date.
But after those notifications were transferred to Wu Yue's mobile phone, and he took the opportunity to hint that his subordinates were causing trouble for the two branches, the urging became official.
——What does this mean?
It means that the guard officer did not give them any face at all, and had no thought of cooperation or involvement. The two branches were just a warning and deterrent to them.
Since we can't cooperate, we have to keep things official.
But who would have thought that during a trip to the wilderness, he, a dignified guard officer, could live or die so easily!
Seeing that Wu Yue's hope of waking up was getting slimmer and slimmer, and the news they received was that Wu Yue was getting weaker and weaker in the medical warehouse, the urging became even more urgent.
But this morning, the news the old lady received was even more direct.
[Old lady, today the company caught an overdue debtor. The other party said that he has the ability to pay off the debt - it is said that a few years ago, a potato could help someone imitate notes and forge a suicide note. 】
After a while, another message came.
[He said that he had forged a lot of letters, which was nothing unusual at first, but the old lady had been pestering her for a potato for a long time, and he only agreed when he had no choice but to turn out to be a sprouted potato. You're angry! Isn’t it annoying? 】
[Ah, because of this incident, the other party kept talking about the suicide note - it's quite a coincidence, this name...]
The other party did not send any more messages.
But enough is enough.
The few messages without beginning or end made the old lady's hair stand on end instantly. The sense of stability that could still be full of dignity in front of outsiders was gone, and then the face-to-face entanglement happened.
How could she not be nervous?
Back then, my son could be promoted and had various compensations and opportunities, and now he has become a garrison officer...
Just because she's old and corrupt doesn't mean she's a fool.
Wu Yue has made mediocre achievements in recent years. The only thing that is most commendable is that he gave birth to the Corridor of Roses. Once this matter is exposed, her life, she listens to people praise her happy life of spending money casually...
Isn’t it going to be all over? !
Thinking of this, she hurriedly ran two steps to catch up with Bai Yu: "Well, Xiaoyu, aunt has watched you grow up. Do you think it's convenient for you now..."
Coming! See you next door!
