What's wrong with being a little arrogant in the apocalypse just to support my wife?

Chapter 110 The Giant Deer of Words

Xian Wenrui, who had lived in the doghouse for a long time, was too lazy to even complain. Fan Jian was indeed true to his name.

"Hey, that's true."

While they were bickering, Jiang Yue had already moved in front of Sheng Xue and pointed to her short, chewed-up hair.

Sheng Xue understood what she meant, and smiled as she rubbed her head while using her supernatural ability.

A pale green light surrounded her, and her straight black hair gradually grew back to its original length.

Zhang Wenjing glanced at it, her money-grubbing mentality kicking in, "Your superpower is really impressive. Before the apocalypse, just treating hair loss would have made you a fortune."

Before the apocalypse, there were many people who stayed up all night and lost their hair. If Sheng Xue were to open reservations, it would probably be possible to book an appointment the year after next.

Upon hearing this, Fan Jian touched his hair and said nonchalantly, "Then I can just stay bald as long as I want? Anyway, Sheng Xue is here to cure me if I go bald?"

Sheng Xue smiled and threatened, "If you really do that, I definitely won't treat you."

Fan Jian immediately wilted. Oh well, he should just cherish the few hairs on his head.

Lu Yize had just finished roasting the sweet potatoes and tossed one to everyone.

Jiang Yue's hair has grown back, even longer than before.

After simply tying her hair up, Lu Yize peeled a sweet potato for her, and a message flashed across his power ring.

After the connection was established, Chen Mingzhang's figure appeared on the superpower ring.

However, his signal seemed to be weak; his figure was swaying, and his ability ring was making a buzzing sound.

"Holy crap, this thing is 3D? That's amazing!"

Fan Jian stared at the power ring in his hand, glanced down at his own, and thought about trying to connect with Xian Wenrui via video call later.

Chen Mingzhang was stuck for a minute before he returned to normal.

The tiny figure in front of him, who looked exactly like Chen Mingzhang, smiled with narrowed eyes, "Sorry, I just came back from outside, and the signal was affected."

"Any progress on the investigation?" Lu Yize asked bluntly.

"Still as ruthless as ever, not even exchanging a few pleasantries."

He squinted and spun his chair, aligning it perfectly with the scenery outside the window. He could see the current state of the central base at a glance; the heavy snow had almost completely buried it.

However, he quickly turned back and answered Lu Yize's question with a smile, "The people you had investigated found out, their names are Fan Chun and Qiu Xiao, right?"

Upon hearing two familiar names, Fan Jian instantly jumped to Lu Yize's side like a spring. "Yes, yes, it's my dad and my mom. Are they alright? Are they... still alive?"

"Alive, and doing very well. He's working under the first squad leader of our base. Oh, it seems Fan Chun is Captain He's childhood friend from the first squad."

"Uncle He? Is he a short, stocky old man who looks like He Guanfei, a lecherous old man?"

Chen Mingzhang nodded. "You are good at using metaphors."

"Where is my grandfather? Is he still alive?" Fan Jian pressed.

“They’re all alive and living in Zone 1 of the Donggu Base. It’s very safe there, so don’t worry. Besides, your grandfather has awakened his superpowers, and neither your parents have been infected with the zombie virus.”

"That's good, that's good." Fan Jian completely relaxed.

Chen Mingzhang looked at Fan Jiandu with envy. The feng shui of the Fan family was really good. In the apocalypse, the whole family lived peacefully and steadily. They were truly a minority.

It's estimated that Fan Jian's ancestors must have run themselves ragged underground to save the lives of these descendants.

Xian Wenrui stepped forward with a heavy heart, his face pale, and he didn't even dare to ask any more questions.

Lu Yize noticed him and asked Chen Mingzhang inside the ability ring, "Any news about the other two people we asked you to inquire about?"

"Yes, they're all alive." Chen Mingzhang didn't keep people in suspense at this point.

Upon hearing these words, Xian Wenrui's eyes instantly reddened. "Just being alive is enough, just being alive is enough."

"Is her name Xianchang Jiehe Wu Yan?"

"Yes, are they alright?"

"Don't worry, they're all still alive. They're in Zone 3 now, and they have plenty of food. So when they were rescued, they even used the food to get a stable job at the base."

Xian Wenrui was completely relieved. He realized that the grain the man mentioned must have been the grain he had bought and sent to his parents after selling his house.

He choked up as he looked at Lu Yize and thanked him.

But Chen Mingzhang added, "However, before your father entered the base, someone tried to steal your family's food. Your father became lame in one leg while protecting your mother."

From the moment Xian Wenrui heard just two words, his heart was in his throat, but after hearing what followed, he gradually calmed down.

"It's alright, as long as he's alive. I'll personally avenge my dad for the injustices he suffered!"

Chen Mingzhang waved his hand, "That's not necessary. Your father has already killed him himself. Otherwise, where would your parents get the food to donate to the base in exchange for a stable job?"

"Ah...oh."

Xian Wenrui was momentarily stunned, his passion suddenly feeling lost and adrift.

Sure enough, ginger is still spicy.

"Thanks."

Upon receiving the news, Lu Yize thanked Chen Mingzhang, thankfully everything had turned out well.

"You're welcome." He smiled with narrowed eyes, looking completely harmless.

Sheng Xue comforted the agitated Xian Wenrui, "Don't worry, I will help heal your father's leg if I have the chance."

Xian Wenrui wiped away his tears, feeling embarrassed to cry in front of the young girl.

But the worry that had been weighing on his heart for so long was suddenly relieved, and he suddenly lost control of his tears.

"Thank you, really, thank you."

Xian Wenrui choked up as he spoke, having held back his emotions for far too long.

Sheng Xue could understand his feelings at this moment; she had also hoped that her parents could come back to life.

After being missing for so long, what's a few tears when you learn that your parents are still alive?

Chen Mingzhang also said with a hint of envy, "Your families have already learned that you are still alive."

"However, in order to avoid disturbances, the control of the ability ring is strict, and communications from other bases cannot reach ordinary people inside the base. We hope you can understand."

Lu Yize understood that this was to avoid inciting emotions, as riots could easily break out if the rumors were allowed to spread.

"Okay, we understand. As long as they're alive, that's enough."

Xian Wenrui had recovered and wiped his face with his clothes, but his voice still sounded off.

As for Fan Jian, he was still hiding in some unknown corner, shedding tears of joy as his whole family was still alive.

And it seems his dad has also found a very powerful backer.

Lu Yize glanced at Fan Jian, who was bent over and crying with his buttocks buried in Xiaobai's body, and suddenly felt that his family did indeed have an element of luck involved.

However, his gaze returned to Chen Mingzhang. He figured that the message he sent, which used his special ability, must have said more than just that.

Chen Mingzhang met Lu Yize's gaze and spoke frankly, no longer hiding anything, "We received news from the Donggu Base that the Giant Deer, which can only speak human language, is heading in our direction."
