Chapter 79: School Beauty Meng Lianyun, Husband, I Love You! (Please continue reading)
Meng Bowen's face immediately lit up with an expression of immense surprise.
"Thank you, Big Brother. From now on, I'm your little brother. Whatever you tell me to do, I'll do it!"
Lu Zheng didn't stay there long. Taking Meng Bowen with him, the group continued towards Xifeng County.
Not long after, the car stopped outside a shopping mall.
They weren't there to find someone; it was purely for shopping.
The supplies at Jinge Building were limited, so they came here to get some new clothes and shoes.
Once they reached the upper floor, Shi Xueqi opened a spatial gate.
Before long, twenty beautiful women all came over.
Even Gu Lengyue couldn't resist the chance to get new clothes and came out to shop with them.
Meng Bowen was quite lucky. Not only did he get two new outfits, but he also enjoyed a feast of delicacies for lunch.
Abalone, lobster, hairy crabs—the fresh seafood made Meng Bowen even get a nosebleed.
At this moment, far away in Xifeng County, within Xizhou University, Meng Lianyun was eating a piece of bread.
She ate the bread with her left hand, while the right side of her upper body was exposed, revealing a wound over twenty centimeters long on her right shoulder blade.
A girl next to her was wiping and bandaging it.
The young girl looked at the wound, almost in tears.
"Sister Meng, does it hurt?"
Meng Lianyun bit into her bread and took a sip of water.
"It hurts."
"But I can endure it."
"Don't worry, I won't die. No one can harm you all."
She had just been through a major battle.
A gang led by a male student from the same university tried to ambush her while she was fighting bugs, but she killed them instead.
However, she was also severely injured in the process.
As one of the four school beauties of Xizhou University, from a privileged family, she had never been injured before.
It really hurt.
But she didn't cry or scream; she just silently trembled, enduring the pain.
This was not only because she was currently the leader of the Blood Rose Society, bearing the survival hopes of over three hundred people, but also because she still hoped to become strong enough to go to Mingyu City in Zhongyang Prefecture to rescue her family.
After her wound was bandaged and she put on her clothes, Meng Lianyun took out a crystal to absorb energy and speed up her recovery, while calling her subordinate, Shao Hanqiu, to inquire about the situation.
"Have you found out about the situation at Xishan Base? Can we go there?"
Shao Hanqiu quickly replied:
"Liu Ye just returned. He said Xishan Base currently has over 300,000 people, and their living conditions are not very good. Ordinary people get one meal a day, barely sustaining their lives."
"But the safety is relatively high; the artillery and firearms are enough to resist those bugs."
"If we develop there, we'll still have to find supplies ourselves by venturing out."
Meng Lianyun nodded.
"Have Liu Ye familiarize himself with the route again. Tomorrow morning, we'll set off for Xishan Base."
She had to go, not just to ensure everyone's safety.
The fastest way to cross several counties to Zhongyang Prefecture was to get official help and use a helicopter, which would get them there quickly.
Relying on their own two legs, they didn't know when they would be able to cross the black fog.
To get there as quickly as possible, she couldn't waste time.
She took a bite of the remaining bread and couldn't help but sigh.
'I wonder if Bowen and the others have any bread to eat.'
While she was worrying whether her family could get a bite of bread, Meng Bowen pointed at the bread crab on the plate and said with difficulty:
"Boss, I really can't eat anymore; I'm too full."
Lu Zheng waved his hand indifferently.
"If you can't eat it, throw it out the window. Don't leave it in the car; it will smell."
Meng Bowen licked his lips and said:
"Boss, this food is so precious. Why don't I put it in the fridge? It would be such a waste to throw it away."
"I'll save it for tomorrow."
But then Tantai Xiaoyu took out a plate of iced grapes from the full refrigerator, handed one to Lu Zheng, and then ate some herself.
"Don't put it in the fridge. Those things smell too strong."
"Bowen, the Boss isn't short on food. We eat these things every day, every meal, and we're tired of them."
"Hurry up and throw it away! What if the Boss gets unhappy and throws you out?"
Hearing this, Meng Bowen quickly complied and threw the bread crab away.
Tantai Huanyan, who was giving Lu Zheng a facial massage, glared at her sister.
"Don't scare the child. My husband isn't the kind of person who indiscriminately kills or bullies children."
"What's more, Bowen might even be the Boss's brother-in-law!"
Lu Zheng waved his hand and said:
"If his sister isn't pretty enough, I'll throw this kid out when we get there."
"He's eaten and drunk so much of my stuff for free; he's gotten a good deal."
Meng Bowen was so scared that he quickly got up to clean.
"Boss, I can work; don't make me leave."
Bai Zhihui, who was trimming Lu Zheng's nails, couldn't help but laugh at this.
"Husband, when I went home just now, Shishi told me that she has a best friend named Su Baitao, who is at the University of Electronic Science and Technology in the neighboring Tianshui County."
"She said if you're passing by, you should try to find her. She's also a great beauty."
Tianshui County is just west of Zhongyang Prefecture, and they could get there quickly.
Hearing that there was another target, Lu Zheng was in a rather good mood.
"Okay, no problem."
"Go tell Yin Xinyao to speed up. We must reach the University of Electronic Science and Technology before 3 PM."
Yin Xinyao was driving now.
Zang Zhenyu's task for Yin Xinyao was to act as a liaison to maintain Lu Zheng's contact with Lijian Base.
Staying at Jinge Building all the time was clearly not appropriate.
After all, she couldn't speak to Lu Zheng at any time; she had to wait for him to occasionally come home, which was inconvenient.
So she voluntarily asked to follow and took on the role of driver.
Her driving skills were good, and it also allowed his women to relax, so Lu Zheng agreed.
Upon hearing Lu Zheng's command, Yin Xinyao immediately began to increase the car's speed.
She wasn't worried about traffic on the road.
After these days of getting along, she knew that Lu Zheng was quite thorough in his considerations.
Since he told her to speed up, it meant that the Tiger King and the Double-Tailed Scorpions ahead were also clearing the road faster.
The RV sped along, while Lu Zheng continuously clicked on the Sword Control Technique skill book in his mind.
These past two days, he would click on the skill book whenever he had nothing to do to increase his Sword Control Technique experience.
Although there were limits due to his physical fitness, he had been taking Strengthening Pills, and his physical fitness was constantly getting stronger, so the number of skill books he could absorb each day was also increasing.
He now had 24,000 points of sword qi in his body, equivalent to 240 units of ability.
He had already reached the energy level of a third-tier ability user.
At this stage, he could freely fly with his sword.
At the previous first and second-tier levels, he could only use the sword to kill targets from a distance.
Sword Control Technique still needed to be improved.
The development of this ability was far from over.
He wanted to try carrying people while flying with his sword, so he took out a broadsword, then embraced the relatively smaller Zheng Jingyi, and flew into the air.
Zheng Jingyi also stood on the flying sword, her head resting on Lu Zheng's shoulder, pressed tightly against his body, her arms open, with Lu Zheng's arms around her waist.
Usually quiet and timid, she suddenly mustered the courage to shout loudly:
"Husband, I love you!"
The two had only been romantic for a few minutes when they saw a birdman being chased by a large bird not far away.
