Zuo Mingdong came back to his senses and nodded at Zou Bo. “Yes, I’m listening. I just heard your description. I feel that 1 might know the three people living in that courtyard…”
“It can’t be, right?” Zou Bo did not believe it at all.
Zuo Mingdong had been staying in the first base all this time. How could he know the people from the grassland?
Zou Bo wanted to say something more, but Zuo Mingdong did not give him the chance. “Captain Zou, I’ll leave you to it. I’m going to settle things down and rest.”
Zou Bo swallowed his original words and said, “Alright, you guys should rest early.”
Zou Bo stood where he was and watched Zuo Mingdong leave with his men. He then looked at the courtyard that was lit up in the distance. In the end, he shook his head and returned to his tent. Regardless of whether Zuo Mingdong really knew the owner of the courtyard, it had nothing to do with him. A large base like the first base would definitely move to a proper base. They could not possibly squeeze into this small grassland with them, could they?
After Zuo Mingdong settled them down, he left the crowd and walked toward the courtyard alone. In fact, he was not sure if Du Yue and the other two were living in the courtyard. In fact, in such a chaotic world, there were many people who had the ability to drive an RV to raise poultry. However, when Zou Bo mentioned the three young people, Zuo Mingdong had a feeling that Du Yue and the other two were the ones living in the courtyard. Zuo Mingdong quickened his pace as he thought about it. Whether it was them or not, he would know when he went to take a look! Just as Zuo Mingdong reached the entrance of the courtyard, he heard footsteps.
Before he could react, he heard a familiar chuckle. “Captain Zuo, how have you been?”
Zuo Mingdong followed the voice and looked over. In the next second, his eyes widened in disbelief, but he soon laughed. “He Xing, it really is you!”
He Xing also laughed heartily. “You didn’t expect this, did you? Fate is so wonderful! Come in and have a seat!”
He Xing opened the door and let Zuo Mingdong in.
After Zuo Mingdong walked into the courtyard, He Xing closed the door again and then led Zuo Mingdong, who was waiting at the side, to the RV. The courtyard was not very big. The two of them walked a few steps and arrived at the door of the RV. As soon as he entered the RV, Zuo Mingdong saw Du Yue and Xia Ju, who were pleasantly surprised. “Captain Zuo, long time no see!” Du Yue greeted him with a smile.
Zuo Mingdong sighed with emotion. “It seems that we are really fated!”
When Du Yue and the other two left the first base, Zuo Mingdong thought that they would never see each other again. He did not expect to see them again so soon. Moreover, he saw them in a place he was unfamiliar with. The people had not changed, but the surrounding environment was completely different. He could not help but feel a little emotional.
After Zuo Mingdong sat down on the sofa, Du Yue asked him, “Captain Zuo, did you guys see the banner, and that’s why you’re preparing to move to the north?”
“Zou Bo told you about this, right?” Zuo Mingdong asked.
Du Yue said honestly, “Yes.”
“That’s right. We saw that banner and realized that the sky was getting darker and darker, so we decided to move. Actually, there’s another important reason that Zou Bo might not have told you. Ever since daylight got shorter and shorter, those bugs seemed to have mutated and began to bite people. Fortunately, there was no poison in their bodies. Otherwise, who knew how many people would’ve died.”
At the mention of this, Zuo Mingdong’s face showed the joy of surviving a disaster. Du Yue and the other two were shocked when they heard this. They did not expect this to happen. Then why did Zou Bo not mention it to them before? Before Du Yue could continue to think, Zuo Mingdong said, “If 1 didn’t know that you guys didn’t like to meddle in other people’s business, I would’ve thought that banner was written by the three of you.”
Du Yue was shocked. Why would the three of them do such a thing? She did not hide the shock on her face. Zuo Mingdong could not help but laugh when he noticed it. “Haha, why are you so surprised? 1 already said that I know how the three of you do things and I know that you won’t do such a thing.”
Du Yue nodded and smiled.
Zuo Mingdong looked at the three of them carefully and nodded with a smile. “It seems that you’ve been doing well these days. Your faces are quite rosy. Ever since you left, I’ve been worried about you…”
Du Yue was silent for a moment before saying, “In the beginning, when there were only the three of us on this grassland, our days were indeed very comfortable. However, as you can see, there are more and more people on the plains. We can’t do as we please like before..”
