Chapter 1913: Yutong’s White Stockings, Maid Outfit

The tall, skinny Taoist sneezed and said peevishly.

The short, chubby Taoist pointed down and said, “How about we change places? Staying up this high, the wind’s strong and it’s cold, I can’t take it!”

The tall, skinny Taoist said helplessly, “Now? You mean right now?”

The short, chubby Taoist looked at the four or five Zombies under the tree, nodded, and said, “Just a few Zombies, we take care of them, then find a house that can block the wind…”

The tall, skinny Taoist rubbed his head, dandruff flying everywhere.

He said to the short, chubby Taoist, “In the daytime, when I said we should find a house to hide in, you said it wasn’t safe. Now it’s already night and you’re telling me this? Not going!”

The short, chubby Taoist was a bit angry, so he turned his head away and stopped paying attention to the tall, skinny Taoist.

The mountain wind was biting.

It had the two of them shivering.

Going down now was obviously not very sensible. Even though the moonlight was bright, it was still far from daytime level.

Though they could roughly see the road, they had no way of telling whether a Zombie would suddenly pop out of the grass.

Tonight, they could only spend the night freezing up here.

After an unknown amount of time, the short, chubby Taoist couldn’t sleep no matter how he turned, so he spoke up:

“Tell me, when you did the divination the day before yesterday, did you really calculate that it’s going to snow in a few days?”

“Mm.”

“If it snows, we’re probably going to suffer again. This damned weather… might as well go back to the mountain.”

The tall, skinny Taoist said impatiently, “You’re the one who said we should go back to the mountain to see if Qingyang’s there, you’re also the one who said after staying a few days we should go down the mountain to keep looking for Qingyang, and now you’re saying go back again? Can you stop changing your mind every two seconds?”

“Junior Brother Qingyang, ah, Junior Brother Qingyang…” The short, chubby Taoist completely ignored the tall, skinny Taoist, muttering Qingyang’s name under his breath.

“…” The tall, skinny Taoist felt his Daoist Heart take damage, silently recited the Calming Incantation a few times before he finally calmed down.

Meanwhile.

Qingyang in the Big Camphor Tree Base sneezed in his sleep and felt a bit puzzled.

Seeing the white moonlight outside, he felt a little cold.

So he tucked the quilt in tighter.

And comfortably went back to sleep.

…..

The night passed.

By dawn, the grass on the ground was covered with white frost, but once the sun came out, it quickly melted and disappeared.

The coldest time at night was only a few degrees, but the daytime sunlight was so intense that both people and plants were enduring a hellish ice-and-fire contrast.

Oil City.

Early in the morning.

Li Tie boarded the Helicopter carrying the gifts Li Yu had given him for Mr. Hu.

In the Doomsday, the most luxurious gift was not antiques, nor diamonds or Gold.

It was food.

As a leader, Mr. Hu definitely wasn’t short on food.

So Li Yu brought out two ultimate weapons, the hard currency of the Doomsday: Hua Zi and Tai Zi.

With these two things, it was enough to show the Big Camphor Tree Base’s sincerity and attitude toward Southern Paradise.

Li Tie, Dapao, Lao Yi, and Xiao Jun walked toward the Helicopter.

Ju Tianrui caught up and said to Li Tie:

“Do you want to send a few more people to go with you?”

Li Tie pointed at Zhu Xiao behind him and said, “Relax, Zhu Xiao and the others will be waiting for us outside. That’s enough.”

Ju Tianrui thought it over and felt Li Tie had a point, so he didn’t insist.

He was mainly worried about accidents. After all, Li Tie was the City Lord’s blood-related cousin. If something happened, he definitely wouldn’t be able to bear the consequences.

However, Zhu Xiao and his people would fly over together in another Helicopter.

The difference was, Zhu Xiao and his group would not enter Southern Paradise.

Originally, before Zhu Xiao and the others arrived, Li Tie, Xiao Jun and the rest had planned to fly over with just the four of them.

But Zhu Xiao and He Ma had flown over in another Helicopter, which gave Ju Tianrui a new plan.

That was to have Zhu Xiao and the others go along, and when they were close to the area, Zhu Xiao would stop and wait a few kilometers outside Southern Paradise.

After Li Tie finished speaking with Ju Tianrui, he boarded the Helicopter together with Dapao and Xiao Jun.

Lao Yi checked the fuel tank and found it full; there were also a few barrels of fuel stored in the cabin. Oil City was very close to Southern Paradise, so this fuel was enough for a round trip.

Once on board, Li Tie adjusted the military radio.

Then he picked up the walkie-talkie to contact Zhu Xiao in the other Helicopter and said, “He Ma, Zhu Xiao, how are things on your side? We’re about to take off.”

In the other Helicopter, Zhu Xiao was currently fastening the Mortar in place with straps.

These were things Ju Tianrui had told him to bring. If things went wrong for Li Tie and the others inside, Zhu Xiao’s group would immediately shell Southern Paradise with the Mortar.

Zhu Xiao was tall and powerfully built, over two meters in height. The outer layer of his clothes was studded with rivets, gleaming in the sunlight.

He didn’t like wearing Radiation Protection Clothing, but he did like wearing a helmet; it made him look more imposing.

“Hey!” Zhu Xiao yanked the strap down hard and then buckled it—once, twice, three times—and finally got the Mortar secured.

During flight, what they feared most was heavy objects in the Helicopter not being tied down.

If something smashed into them, getting hurt would be the small issue. If it knocked the pilot out cold, that would mean total destruction.

There’s no such thing as a small issue in flight; any issue is a big one.

“All right, all right.” Zhu Xiao hurriedly shouted to He Ma, who was piloting the Helicopter.

After hearing him say it was good to go, He Ma picked up the walkie-talkie and contacted Li Tie.

“We’re ready. We can take off anytime.”

“Okay, you follow behind us, don’t get too close. When we go in, you find a place a bit farther away outside and land there.” Li Tie instructed.
