Abnormal survival in the end times

Chapter 174 Become famous?
Bai Wei turned around and ran not far before he ran into Bai Yang and Shi Jiashu who were rushing towards him.

"Xiao Yang, Xiao Hua is back."

Looking at Bai Wei who was excited and happy, Bai Yang nodded to indicate that he understood.

To be honest, Bai Yang was also very happy that Bai Hua was able to come back alive. After all, no matter what, she was still his great-grandfather's granddaughter, and his cousin.

Moreover, they didn’t have any major conflicts before, they just had different ideas and couldn’t get along.

However, before my brother-in-law left, he told me that the door should not be opened easily, even if you are from Pengcheng, you cannot open it casually.

What's more, I just heard from Liu Er that Bai Hua didn't come back by herself, but came back in a car, dressed neatly and in a respectable manner.

Liu Er said that there was a man with her who looked no ordinary man.

Bai Yang frowned and turned to look at Shi Jiashu. Bai Wei also looked at Shi Jiashu. The key was in his hand. He had the final say on how to open the small door and let Bai Hua in.

"Xiao Shi, that's my sister, can you let her in first?"

Bai Wei finally remembered Jiang Minglang's instructions before he left after the excitement of suddenly seeing his sister subsided a little.

Reason returned to his head, and a trace of embarrassment appeared on his face. After thinking for a while, he looked at Shi Jiashu who was standing still and asked, "She can't come in now, right?"

Now Bai Wei is no longer as ignorant as before. Or rather, it’s not that he didn’t understand many things before, but he was too lazy to think about them. After all, his father would support him even if the sky fell, so it was not his turn to think about things.

But it’s different now. He is the sky of his family, and his wife and two children have to rely on him.

My sister's clothes and appearance are different from those survivors who came to seek refuge. Let's not talk about where she was and what she did in the past year. What is the relationship between the man who came with her? Are they from a base or are they independent?
Until the problem is clarified, we really can't let her in casually.

Although he really wanted Bai Hua to come in right now, he also knew that things were different now. Not only Minglang, but also Lizhi, seemed to be on some list in Kyoto.

Because of super powers!

Litchi's special ability is indeed amazing.

Shi Jiashu climbed up to the sentry post first, stood on the high ground and observed carefully with a telescope for a long time.

There was only one black Mercedes-Benz outside Dashimen, parked behind the crowd, very eye-catching. A handsome man in his thirties, about 1.8 meters tall, leaned against the front of the car, holding an ancient and familiar long sword in his arms, with one hand casually resting on the handle, seemingly casually but vigilantly paying attention to the crowd in front.

A young woman named Bai Hua was standing near the stone gate. She was wearing a lavender down jacket, black sweatpants and snow boots. One could tell at a glance that she had a good quality of life.

She would peek in through the crack of the door from time to time, and at first glance her expression seemed to be filled with joy and excitement about returning home. However, as a scout, Shi Jiashu was keenly aware of the fleeting impatience on her face when she pursed her lips.

Although this expression may not mean anything, he still felt it was a bit strange.

"Bai Wei, the knife in the man's hand outside looks very similar to yours. Did your sister give it to him?"

Because he saw them through a telescope, Shi Jiashu couldn't be sure that the two knives were exactly the same, but they were indeed very similar.

Knives and guns are two weapons they touch frequently, so they can almost tell at a glance whether they are good or not.

It is said that the knife in Bai Wei's hand was handed down from the ancestors of the Bai family. The captain and they have all seen it. It is no exaggeration to say that before the end of the world, if this knife was put on an auction for rich people, it would definitely be sold for seven figures.

So can this kind of knife be seen in the hands of just anyone?

Sure enough, Bai Wei was stunned when he heard it.

He immediately shook his head and denied it. "How is that possible? This is the only knife of this kind in our family. When my grandfather was still alive, he wanted to pass it on to my uncle, but my second grandfather refused to take it, so it has come into my hands now."

To be honest, he is the most useless male of this generation in the Bai family. In fact, he is most suitable for his uncle Bai Xiangtian.

"This sword has been passed down for hundreds of years. There is no way there is a second one. The one you saw is probably a replica."

It's possible.

Shi Jiashu put aside his doubts about this question and called Bai Yang and another power user, "Open the small door and let Bai Hua in."

Coming in doesn't mean giving up suspicion of her, but it will allow them to investigate her at a closer distance, making it easier for them to figure things out.

The survivors who came to seek refuge outside the door all came on foot, carrying their bags. After knocking on the door for a long time without success, they sat down in groups of three or four nearby, looking listlessly at the high wall with barbed wire on top and a row of cacti on the top.

I heard that someone found a secluded wall at night and tried to climb over it. Although there was a tight wire fence blocking it, it was not impossible to get in if you were careful and well prepared.

Compared with the barbed wire, those people instinctively ignored the cute and green cacti stuck on the wall, thinking that their gloves could withstand the barbed wire, so what were the small cacti?
However, no one expected that the thorns on the cactus would be harder than the barbed wire, and as luck would have it, two of the people were stabbed by the cactus, half of their bodies were numb, and they even broke a leg when they fell from the wall.

Due to the cold, hunger and injuries, I heard that the two men died after only two weeks.

Later, the families of the two men ran to the outside of the stone gate and cursed at them. They also found dirty things and threw them on the stone gate. They looked like they were throwing tantrums and making a scene, as if they were ready to make a big fuss.

In fact, whether there is a commotion or not has no effect on the people in Pengcheng, but it indirectly serves as an advertisement for their high walls, intending to tell everyone: the walls of Pengcheng cannot be climbed!
Things did get much better after that, at least no one thought about climbing over the wall anymore.

If you want to enter Pengcheng, there is only one way through the gate.

With a creaking sound, just as the crowd outside was stunned, a small door on the side suddenly opened, and then a hand reached out and quickly pulled the young woman standing by the door in, and then the small door closed with a clang.

Opening and closing, the fastest speed is not that of a human.

By the time the people outside reacted, the small door had already been locked with the second lock.

"Hey, how can this be?"

"That's right. We are all going to get in, so why should she get special treatment?"

"Why? Because I know someone in the family."

"Acquaintances? I have relatives in Pengcheng, so I have acquaintances too."

"Stop it." The people outside rushed to the door again and started a new round of banging and shouting.

The young man leaning against the front of the car at the back was not angry because his companion went in and he was left behind. Instead, he continued to lean against the car calmly.

It seemed as if he was certain that he would be able to get in, it was just a matter of time.

"Brother, Xiao Yang, the one who is with me outside"

"You come here first."

After Bai Hua entered, the first thing she wanted to explain to her elder brother and cousin was who the man who came with her was, and that he should also come in instead of being turned away.

But he was interrupted by Bai Wei before he could finish his words.

Shi Jiashu, Bai Yang and Bai Wei took Bai Hua to a small house under the sentry post not far away.

"Sit down, would you like some water?"

There was a stove in the small house, and the kettle on it was bubbling with steam. Although the inside was simple, it was warm and cozy, making people not want to leave once they came in.

But Bai Hua was not in the mood to pay attention to this at the moment. He took the cup of water handed to him by his brother, drank it in two gulps, put the cup down, and said something that surprised Bai Wei and Bai Yang.

"Brother, Xiao Yang, the one who came with me is not an outsider, but a member of our Bai family. His name is Bai Xingye, and his great grandfather and our great grandfather are brothers. They were the ones who left Pengcheng and went abroad. When the zombie virus broke out, I happened to be on a business trip to Kyoto with my colleagues. Later, I was saved by Xingye by mistake, and I have been with him ever since."

Bai Hua briefly explained Bai Xingye's identity, and then said, "Xingye said that his family returned to China half a year before the end of the world and moved the company to Kyoto. They wanted to come back to us after they were stable and worship their ancestors. Unfortunately, they didn't have time to come back before the end of the world came."

"How did you recognize him as a member of the Bai family?"

Bai Yang ignored Bai Hua's subsequent words and only asked suspiciously, "You can't just believe everything he says, right?"

"Am I that stupid?" Bai Hua rolled her eyes at Bai Yang, then raised her hand and pointed at the knife stuck on her eldest brother's waist, saying, "Xingye has a knife exactly like the one we have. He said they are a pair. Back then, my great-grandfather gave the two knives to my great-grandfather and his eldest brother respectively. Later, they left Pengcheng with their respective belongings, and the knives were passed to Xingye. This kind of knife is not everywhere, how could I have made a mistake?"

What she said was true. A long time ago, the Bai family had a lot of good things, but most of them were donated later. Apart from this knife, only a few jade pendants were left.

Bai Hua may not be very good at other things, but he can still recognize his own things.

It's not a relationship between men and women.
Bai Wei breathed a sigh of relief. He was actually glad that it was Bai Xingye who saved Bai Hua, and not someone else. If his sister was right, he and the others were not even five generations apart.

If Bai Xingye's grandfather was still alive, then he and his second grandfather would be cousins.

It’s just that their group had been away for too long and we hadn’t been in touch for a long time, so when I heard it suddenly, I didn’t feel anything.

This is true for him and for Bai Yang as well.

So neither of them wanted to care whether or not to let Bai Xingye in.

In short, just follow the rules.

"elder brother"

Bai Hua was anxious. "They went through so much trouble to send me back. They are our family. I am home now, so there is no way I can lock them out. What's more, the people Xingye brought were injured while fighting off a group of mutant birds on the way here. They are now lying in the car."

She looked at Bai Yang again, "If Second Grandfather knew, he would definitely not agree to leave him alone."

Bai Yang frowned, but before he could speak, Bai Wei scolded him, "I warn you, don't talk nonsense in front of Second Grandpa when you go back. He's so old, there's no need to worry about this kind of thing."

Don't mention blood ties. Just say that when my second grandfather was sick and almost died, where were those people? Why didn't anyone come back to help him?

It’s too late to play the emotional card now as we are all members of the Bai family.

Bai Yang smiled coldly, "Bai Xingye saved you and took care of you for such a long time. If you feel bad, you can pay him. But it's impossible to let him in. Bai Hua, you have to know that the wall was not built by our Bai family. It was Mr. Li who took care of it from beginning to end. So Pengcheng is not decided by our Bai family. The reason why I can let you in so easily is because Brother Wei and I happen to be on duty today. Otherwise, you might have to wait outside for two more days."

"How is that possible? Doesn't Li Nan listen to his sister and brother-in-law in everything?" Bai Hua blurted out without thinking.

After she said this, the room fell silent. Not only Shi Jiashu and Bai Yang, but even Bai Wei looked at her suspiciously and asked, "Who told you that Li Nan always listens to your sister and brother-in-law?"

Communication is not as good as it used to be. It is not an exaggeration to say that the information is blocked. Except for some special places, they have their own communication methods to transmit information.

But the message they conveyed was not something that anyone could hear.

Realizing that he had said something out of turn, Bai Hua felt a little guilty for a moment, but this guilt was quickly overshadowed by the injustice and resentment in his heart.

She has always regarded Bai Li as her own sister. Their Bai family is a small family with only two sisters in the entire family. So since she didn't come back after the apocalypse, and Bai Li and her husband are so powerful that they even control an entire city, why couldn't they go out and look for her?

She did not meet Bai Xingye at the beginning of the apocalypse. It was about three or four months later that she was intercepted by several men who wanted to rob her, and then she was rescued by him who was passing by.

When she saw the knife in the other person's hand, she couldn't help but ask, "Where did you get this knife?"

At first Bai Xingye didn't say anything, he just asked her what her name was. When he heard that her last name was Bai, he asked where she was from. Only then did he confirm that they were from the same family.

Fortunately, she met Bai Xingye, otherwise she would not be alive until now and would have died long ago.

But what about her family?

They are all staying safely and comfortably in their warm homes where there are no zombies or mutant animals attacking them. When they are well fed, warmly clothed and sleeping comfortably, have they ever thought of her?
No, they had forgotten her long ago because they believed that she must have died in the apocalypse.

"What? Am I right?"

Bai Hua crossed his arms and looked at his elder brother and Bai Yang. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he raised a sarcastic smile, "My brother-in-law's name has long been known throughout Kyoto. Who doesn't know who Jiang Minglang is? And my good sister, the mutant vines that her wood-type ability breeds can attack and defend. Many people with the same wood-type ability want to ask her how her vines are bred. Her name, Bai Li, is now well-known."

After these words were spoken, the expressions of the other three people in the room changed.

Jiang Minglang was not mentioned for now, after all, he was well-known in the army before the end of the world. But Bai Li... They only knew that she was put on the list by some big shots because of the last "invitation to be a guest", but wasn't that limited to a certain circle?
How come so many people know her?

What do you mean?
good night!
