Chapter 221: Bet On This
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at where Qian Yu was pointing. While others were confused, Xiu Wu looked at Qian Yu for a long time. He frowned slightly, looked at him, and asked, "Can you also see things inside other people’s bodies?"
The boy nodded towards him and said, "Um. I finally saw that stone move today. It looked normal and not a stone anymore."
Just when everyone was confused by their conversation, Zhu Lin came back with a plate of food. Sensing that the atmosphere in the room was a little strange, she glanced at them doubtfully, then put the tray on the bedside table and said, "Since you can’t eat heavy food, you can only have porridge today. After you recover, you can eat whatever you like."
Seeing Xiu Wu staring at them, Ji Yang stood up from his chair and said, "We won’t disturb you anymore. You have a good rest and don’t go out these days."
Listening to his nagging, Xiu Wu sighed helplessly and said, "Mhm, I know."
Ji Yang looked at his expression, shook his head, and left with Tan Wei and the children. Before leaving the room, Qian Yu looked at Xiu Wu’s chest and said, "Elder Brother Xiu Wu, congratulations."
After hearing his words, Xiu Wu chuckled and said, "Thank you."
When Zhu Lin gently helped Xiu Wu eat his simple breakfast, the situation outside the Wu Lin base was really bad. Although Teng Bai and Song Chengsu had sent Xiu Wu’s reply back to the military base, there was still no response from the military base.
Considering that the heavy snowfall might have affected their communications, Teng Bai and Song Chengsu decided to wait a few more days before making a decision. Fortunately, after four days of waiting, the answer they were waiting for finally came, although it was not as good as expected.
Sitting on the small bed in the shell house, Teng Bai and Song Chengsu looked at the communication device and heard Mao Yan say, "Xiao Bai, it is not easy for us to leave the base now because it is too cold outside. If we are not fully prepared, we will be dead before we reach the Wu Lin base."
"Uncle, if you don’t leave now, it will be even harder for you to leave in the future. The temperature is dropping by the second, and the third wave of cooling events is coming. By then, you will all be dead without even a chance to leave the base." Teng Bai said with a frown.
