Volume 2 Chapter 77 Who is truly doing the ambushing?
Grandpa Qin found some news about the secret base of the mad demon mercenary group. Although it was groundless accusations, it was perfect for attracting snakes out of the hole.
In fact, at the beginning, Grandpa Qin refused to let Shao Qing go out to take risks. He always felt that it was best for girls like Shao Qing to stay at home. Taks like attracting snakes out of a hole are too dangerous.
But how could Shao Qing wait at home calmly?
She rejected the kindness of Grandpa Qin and took only two people to go out, that is Yan Qiyue and Er Dai.
Originally she didn’t even plan to bring Yan Qiyue, but Yan Qiyue insisted on following so she had no other option.
The destination was close to Jing Du, it was a base north of Jing Du. This base was so small that it didn’t even have a name.
Occasionally when someone did mention this base, they will simply say it was a base in the north beside a forest.
This base was small, yet they had the mad demon mercenary group sending people there over and over again.
According to the information given to her by Grandpa Qin, every week, someone from the Mad Demon Mercenary Corps would go to the small base. Sometimes they would do it blatantly, sometimes they would do it secretly by sending another group of mercenaries that were under the Mad Demon Mercenary Corps.
In one month, there would be people who belong to the mad demons going to that base three or five times. Such an unnoticeable small base with no special products, why was it necessary for them to visit the base three or five times in a month?
This base definitely had some problems.
Of course, the most important thing was to lead the snake out of the cave. After Shao Qing left Jing Du, she took Yan Qiyue and Er Dai together and wandered in the direction of the small base.
The itinerary was not urgent, plus she was worried that if they went too fast, those who followed behind will be thrown away, so they took it more so as a road trip. Travelling slowly, they enjoyed the beautiful scenery, rested whenever they wanted, and stopped to cook at any time, it was as if they weren’t experiencing the apocalypse.
The teeth of the people following behind them were about to be grinded to nothing. Early on, they had already received the news and laid out a trap in front, waiting for Shao Qing.
It’s just that Shao Qing was so leisurely, it didn’t look like she was rushing through her journey to investigate. Instead, she seemed to be taking a leisurely road trip.
In fact when it was night time, Shao Qing would set up the tent, then go to the surrounding areas to find some wild game and vegetables and eat them in a variety of ways every day. They would eat barbecue today, hot pot tomorrow, and then other delicious dishes the day after tomorrow accompanied by white rice.
And what about them? They would eat in the wind with no housing. They did not dare to sleep at night, for fear that when their eyes were closed, Shao Qing would disappear.
While Shao Qing was eating new delicacies, they were stuck chewing on dried food. In fact, this was what they had to eat usually. Those hard dry foods could basically break their teeth. Yet, they did not feel so sad at that time since they had gotten used to it.
But it’s when there is a comparison that it becomes deadly, especially when the fragrance of cooking from Shao Qing’s side reaches the tip of their noses. The days of eating dry food were particularly unbearable.
Those people couldn’t wait to tear Shao Qing up. If you have the ability to wander around, then go faster!
If you have the ability to investigate, then do it properly!
Originally, they thought this was a very simple job; however, biting down on their dry food now, their tears were already coming down. They were even more sad when they realized that this would go on for several more days.
Shao Qing’s side was very high spirited. For example, this afternoon, Er Dai caught and came back with several pheasants. There were no other wild animals. So after Shao Qing thought about it, they prepared chicken soup with rice.
The rice was not the kind of rice cultivated in the base, but rice that was left before the end of the world. After the end of the world, some researchers studied the medicine that allowed rice to be grown four times a year. Since then, most of the bases did not have a shortage of food anymore.
At least no more people will starve to death because there was a shortage of food. It can be said that food and clothing was what most bases can guarantee now.
This kind of rice was only slightly worse in taste than normal rice. But during the apocalypse, it is already the greatest gift from heaven to be able to eat. Who will care about the taste of rice?
However, with how picky Shao Qing was, she insisted on eating the rice from before the apocalypse. When she went on missions, she would make sure to pay attention to food. Every time she saw rations, she would put it in her small treasury.
For her loved ones, of course, she would only give them the best.
After the pheasant was cleaned, Shao Qing stuffed a lot of mushrooms and other fungus in his stomach, and then boiled it in the pot.
There was no need for too much seasoning, just a little oil and salt, and then adding a little star anise would be enough.
After the rice was out of the pot, she drizzled some chicken broth and removed the mushrooms from the pheasant’s stomach and served it as a side dish. Each grain of rice was wrapped in the sparkling clear soup, which made it look even more appetizing.
Those who hid in the dark bit their own hands. They were being tormented so much they wanted to cry. They also wanted to eat rice, drink soup, and eat chicken. They didn’t want to nibble on compressed cookies.
The rich fragrance of Shao Qing’s cooking made their dry food taste even more like chewing wax and made it much harder to swallow.
During the apocalypse, who would go out with pots and pans and who would cook rice and stew chicken soup when eating in the wild.
This was cruel to death!
The key is that they not only have to endure this kind of abuse, but also watch the lovey doveyness between the two men and woman every day! Their eyes were going to go blind!
Especially the guy named Yan Qiyue, who acted coquettishly once every three minutes, does he have a problem with his head? Have you ever seen such a man who loved acting coquettish?
After they had endured it for five days, they really wanted to rebel. If it was not for the sake of victory that was close at hand, they really wanted to jump out and let Shao Qing give them pleasure!
The only thing that helped them carry on now was that they were getting closer and closer to their arranged trap. As long as Shao Qing and others step into the trap, they will no longer have to suffer this kind of torture.
By the sixth day, Shao Qing finally arrived at the forest outside the unnamed base. It was rumoured that there was a pond in the forest and the water there was not polluted. In fact, there were live fish in it.
Shao Qing was not interested in this small pond. She stepped into the forest with the two men. As long as she walked through this small forest, they would reach the unnamed base.
Once in the base, they could take a bath, change clothes, and then sleep beautifully.
Shao Qing was very much looking forward to it. She bit her nails and considered what to eat at night. On the surface, she was very relaxed. Yet in fact, she has been alert all the time since she stepped into the forest.
The muscles in her body have been tensed to a perfect state. In case of any sudden occurrences, such as an assassin who falls from the sky, she can react in the first moment.
Shao Qing walked forward and suddenly smelled a faint scent. The scent was very light, very faint, and it smelled good. Just like her Qiu Tang. It would make a person unknowingly fall into the trick.
Shao Qing’s sense of smell was very strong. The key is that she and Er Dai would not fall for it because they were zombies and most of these poisons were transmitted by blood, while the amount of blood zombies had were pitiful.
Furthermore, most poisons were aimed at the human body. Zombies, bluntly stated, were walking corpses. How could they be afraid of any toxins?
But Yan Qiyue was different. He was a living person and he is the only one among the three of them who would be affected.
Yan Qiyue was walking and was suddenly held by Shao Qing. Then, Shao Qing kissed him! Without any warning, she kissed him!
Yan Qiyue was stunned at that time, the joy from his heart was bursting out like fireworks, flooding his brain and heart. The speed of blood flow accelerated like the rapids colliding on a reef.
Immediately afterwards, something was pushed into his mouth by the tip of her soft tongue. Yan Qiyue swallowed that thing silently.
That was the antidote made by him. In order for safe keeping, it was specially sealed in a candy-like shell and turned into colorful balls.
This action almost made Er Dai crazy. He grabbed Shao Qing with a wailing voice and looked at Shao Qing aggrievedly. How could Shao Qing kiss others? Don’t kiss him!
Shao Qing had a guilty conscience. Even if her actions were justified just now, she still felt guilty. Finally, she couldn’t help but kiss Er Dai for a while. (Editor: lolololol)
Er Dai was pacified by this, holding Shao Qing’s hand tightly. Those who followed: …
“Let’s go.” Shao Qing fed Yan Qiyue the detoxifying agent and was relieved. She took the two people deeper and the fragrance gradually faded. When the fragrance almost reached the point of nothing, Shao Qing stopped.
“What’s wrong?” Yan Qiyue also stopped and asked in a low voice.
Shao Qing didn’t speak and looked around. Then she picked up a thick stick and came back, poking at the ground one step away.
Then the ground collapsed…
It exposed the sinkhole below and the sharp blades at the bottom of the pit. Yan Qiyue looked at the row of sharp blades and couldn’t help but feel chills.
“The several people hiding in the dark using these dirty methods, it really makes me laugh. Dare to scheme against me, but don’t dare to come out to see me?” Shao Qing said coldly.
She had just finished speaking when suddenly there was a large net flying diagonally over. Shao Qing quickly pulled Yan Qiyue and Er Dai and the three rolled away. Then the net fell down.
Dozens of superhumans came out from all over the place surrounding them. The ones who were the fastest were still those superhumans still hidden in the dark.
At this time dozens of those superhumans did not approach Shao Qing; yet there were countless ice, fireballs, wind blades, and water columns overwhelmingly aimed at Shao Qing.
Shao Qing raised her hands up and the vines wove into a thick net, covering the heads of the three of them. No matter how violent those powers were, they could not break through the net and land on them.
At this time, the dozens of superhumans were close. The fastest superhuman had already rolled in front of Shao Qing. With two ice blades in his hand, he stepped forward and stabbed towards Shao Qing’s belly.
Er Dai stretched his foot out and stepped on that man’s hand with ease. His other foot kicked out. Who knows how much power Er Dai used as he easily kicked the man’s head off.
His head was torn off while he was alive and blood spewed out. Shao Qing’s trouser legs were stained red.
When Shao Qing’s gesture changed, the vine net above her head instantly spread out and turned into individual vines that spread out all around.
I have to say that the mad demons really went all out this time. Among those superhumans that came to surround her, none of them were weaker than rank 3. Several of them had even reached the fourth rank. Don’t forget that there are still superhumans hidden in the dark, their strength was certainly not weaker than these twenty-somethings.
With such a lineup, the average person really wouldn’t be able to bear it. Even those who think they are the most powerful in the country could fall with an ambush of such a lineup.
Just looking at this set up, there was really a feeling of killing a chicken with a butcher knife.
However, they were not destined to be the butcher knife and Shao Qing would definitely not be the chicken to be slaughtered. As soon as the ambush rushed up, they found that Shao Qing’s vines were terrifying.
The lowest rank was rank 3 and several vines easily passed through their chest in one movement. The vines waved lazily and a corpse was torn apart and scattered on the ground.
Those with the same ranks could combine their strength, but don’t forget, Shao Qing was not alone! There was still Yan Qiyue and Er Dai beside her. Er Dai was the fastest to respond. He soared forward. Then he was beside Shao Qing and harvesting heads under the cover of the vines.
Yan Qiyue was even more domineering. He stood still next to Shao Qing, moving his hands like a conductor, waving it up and down. From time to time someone would be pressed into a ball of meat by his ability to control the air.
Those people looked at them, no way! They had to cut off Yan Qiyue first, then they could fight it out against Shao Qing. Yet, they realize that they couldn’t even get close to Shao Qing.
The octopus-like vines almost filled the entire space around Shao Qing. Occasionally, two fish in the net would break through the vine’s blockade, yet Er Dai would be responsible for harvesting those heads.
They lost many lives, yet they didn’t even touch Shao Qing’s clothes.
“Hurry and leave!” Someone in the dark screamed and those superhumans that appeared suddenly retreated like a tide, but would Shao Qing let them go?
What a joke! If you want to come and assassinate her, come here and fight. Seeing that you can’t beat her, you run away? How can there be such a good thing under the sky?
“Stay for me!” Shao Qing sneered. The vine in her hands was like a live python and once it chose a person they were eaten. As long as they were targeted, don’t even think about running.
One of the superhumans was already at rank 4 and was a wind elemental user. His speed was very fast. As he was gliding along, he thought that he could escape from it, then a vine suddenly wrapped around his ankle.
The vine just pulled him a little and made him temporarily unable to move. The time that he couldn’t move was only about one second. What can be done in one second?
It was enough for Er Dai to appear behind him and tear his body apart while he was alive.
Originally, as a rank 4 superhuman, he would not be killed so easily. But he had lost his fighting spirit at that time and was only thinking about escaping. He never even thought about the possibility of him being stronger than Er Dai.
Coupled with the relaxation that he would be able to escape from this desperate situation, he was suddenly hit with absolute desperation. This led to him being killed by someone with a lower strength than him, Er Dai.
On the other side, Shao Qing did not plan to let anyone go. She deliberately pretended to be poisoned and then whispered: “Let them go.” Then her body swayed as if weakened.
Er Dai and Yan Qiyue immediately returned to her side. Yan Qiyue’s acting was the most awful, he covered his forehead and then fell onto Shao Qing’s body: “Oh … I’m a little dizzy …”
Shao Qing couldn’t help but feel the corners of her mouth twitch, but her face had an ‘Oh, I was poisoned so badly, but I need to pretend that I’m not poisoned” expression as she stood.
The people hadn’t gone far. After all, they still had the previous trump card of poison. Seeing that Shao Qing and Yan Qiyue were really poisoned, those people were just about to move.
The leader waved his hand and stopped everyone from leaving. Then he quietly took the group back. He approached Shao Qing and looked at Shao Qing’s pale face as she wobbled. It appeared like she was poisoned and could barely support herself.
He was pleasantly surprised and no longer yelled about leaving. He immediately waved his hand: “Everyone charge! The opportunity has come!”
Shao Qing also waved secretly: The opportunity is coming! Don’t let go of any of them!
