Chapter 96 - Recover

Before Nie Yi went to the river bank, he went to look for Ping Shengchao. “Have Jiang Huai get rid of the fire ability user who left.”

He was used to being careful, and absolutely would not leave any hidden dangers behind.

He was the one who saved the fire ability user. At the very start, he had already told those people that if they wanted to follow him, they had to listen to him. As a result, this person still disrespected Qi Jingchen in front of everyone and called him into question...

He definitely had to give this person a punishment as a warning to others. Otherwise, other people may not take him and Qi Jingchen seriously. But, it was also unavoidable that punishing this person would make him become resentful and indignant.

Nie Yi would not be willing to leave someone who hated him behind. Might as well kill him off at the very start... But he also could not kill him on the spot— The survivors of the same village whom he had protected were extremely grateful to him. If Nie Yi were to kill him in public, it would definitely give rise to resentment among these people.

Nie Yi had no intentions of killing all these survivors, and simply drove this person out first before sending someone to kill him, lest that person end up being used by someone else to target him and bring people here— This sort of person who was unclear about the situation would usually be the easiest to become another person’s sword.

Ping Shengchao nodded and quickly made the arrangements. In the apocalypse, he also would not allow enemies to grow. That fire ability user originally wasn’t their enemy, but now he was.

The fire ability user Nie Yi was concerned about was walking down the road departing the village.

When he had left the village, the people he had saved had more or less given him some things, but none of them left with him. A few of the older ones had even advised him to apologise to Nie Yi.

Why did he have to apologise to Nie Yi? It wasn’t like he had said anything wrong!

He used to think that Nie Yi was a hero, but in reality? Nie Yi was bewitched by a selfish man!

That Qi Jingchen clearly had not a single good point, yet he lived even better than everyone else... Why? Was Nie Yi able to be this rash and wilful just by relying on his strength?

This person was filled with indignance, yet he forgot that if it was not for Nie Yi saving him, perhaps he would have died long ago.

He walked very quickly, but stopped after a while to look behind him. Back when he chose to go with Nie Yi, it was because he knew it was safest to be with Nie Yi. Now that he left the Chenguang Team, would he encounter danger?

This person was at a loss when he heard the sound of a motorbike from behind.

Was it Nie Yi, wanting him to get him back because he did not want to lose an ability user? This person’s face was filled with excitement, but what greeted him was a gunshot.

Jiang Huai got off the motorbike, pushing his glasses up and walking towards that person.

Although his marksmanship was very good, it wasn’t as good as being able to hit a headshot while riding a motorbike, so that shot ended up hitting this person’s stomach.

“Why,” asked the fire ability user as he clutched his gunshot wound.

“This is the apocalypse,” Jiang Huai sighed. “Nie shao is already very lenient; he personally fights at the head of his troops, and would not send his subordinates off to die or complete uncompletable missions. Why did you have to go provoke him?” Did this person become stupid after staying in a small mountain village? It was now the apocalypse; even though Nie Yi would not kill innocent people, that was on the premise that they did not provoke him.

There was another gunshot, and Jiang Huai very quickly dealt with this corpse.

Back when he was Nie Yi’s assistant, he only had to help Nie Yi deal with various files. Now, he unexpectedly had to deal with corpses...

This fire ability user’s departure did not bring about the dissatisfaction of those survivors at all. They were now all looking forward to a beautiful future, to the extent that though it was still winter now and the weather was cold and the ground was frozen, they couldn’t resist starting to turn the soil. There were even many who ran to those in charge of cultivating plants in the Chenguang Team to learn how to farm, and then also began learning how to build large sheds.

Chu Yunxiu did not go build a large shed, but brought her husky to the mountains to chop wood, planning to bring them back and dry them to turn into firewood. Wei Jinrong went with her and also chopped some wood, then dug up some wild herbs—Though he had lived in the city ever since he was a child, he had a mother fond of eating various wild herbs, so he was familiar with them.

Though this place was located in the south, there were very few wild herbs growing in winter. However, he found some oilseed rape, and actually had an abundant harvest.

When they were bringing their harvest back to the village, they saw the village’s river from a distance. Wei Jinrong promptly said ruefully, “It would be great if it was summer right now. I can go into the river and catch some fish; even if I couldn’t catch the fish, I could get some river snails and shrimps.”

“Since you know we can’t go in the water during winter, don’t say it!” Chu Yunxiu glared at him. She had a strong craving for fish, and now Wei Jinrong had brought up the topic of fish, how unbearable was it for her to be unable to eat it?

“Look!” Wei Jinrong yelled, “Someone went in the water!”

Chu Yunxiu was stunned and looked down. Sure enough, she saw someone in the river. Who else would it be but Nie Yi?

It was already bad enough that Nie Yi was bathing in the river on a winter day, but that Ping Shengchao who followed him all day was actually pouring water on him with his water ability!

Chu Yunxiu suspected that she had mistaken what she had seen. However, reality told her that she did not. Nie Yi... wasn’t he precisely soaking in the river?

What was going on here?

Wei Jinrong was also a little flabbergasted, and suddenly thought of something. “Didn’t Qi Yaoyao previously say that the reason Nie Yi awakened to his water ability was because her older brother got mad and forced Nie Yi, a fire ability user, to soak in water all day? Is Qi Jingchen angry again this time?”

“That can’t be, right?” Chu Yunxiu was a little puzzled.

“Why not? Did you forget what happened last night?” Wei Jinrong said. Speaking of which, that Xu Qiuyu was really brainless. Nie Yi had already said that he wouldn’t fall for her, yet she still threw herself at the muzzle of the gun...

“Qi Jingchen is quite incredible ah...” Chu Yunxiu said.

“Didn’t the Chenguang Team members already say? It is better to provoke Nie Yi than Qi Jingchen,” Wei Jinrong said. Looking at his old classmate sitting by the river, he couldn’t help but feel a little rueful, but also a little envious. He was a straight man, yet he was jealous of Qi Jingchen finding a good man, ai...

There were many people who misunderstood, but Ping Shengchao was not among them. The other few who knew that there was a problem with Nie Yi’s ability very quickly understood Nie Yi and Qi Jingchen’s intentions.

Nie Yi was probably thinking of methods to recover his ability.

Nie Yi now couldn’t use his fire ability to warm himself, yet he still dared soak in a brook during a winter day. This willpower truly was a little astonishing!

For him to become so strong was also not without reason. These people simultaneously resolved their convictions of doing their very best.

Ping Shengchao poured down another stream over Nie Yi’s head, then couldn’t resist eyeing Qi Jingchen.

The longer they interacted, the clearer he became aware of a fact— the many things Qi Jingchen did always have a purpose.

Ever since Nie Yi had found Qi Jingchen, Qi Jingchen had made an excessive number of requests. Among them, some were him attempting to allow himself to live well, but there were also some that had brought Nie Yi great benefits.

Ping Shengchao’s good opinion of Qi Jingchen grew a little more. When he realised Qi Jingchen was looking at Nie Yi in the river with eyes filled with worry, he even dumped a large waterball on Nie Yi.

“Decrease the water flow. Take it slow,” Qi Jingchen said to Ping Shengchao. His spiritual strength couldn’t help but reach over to Nie Yi— He didn’t know if Nie Yi had been hurt from the hit.

When Nie Yi sensed Qi Jingchen’s spiritual strength, he gave him a smile, but soon pushed Qi Jingchen’s spiritual strength away with his own, then laid his entire body under the water surface.

He sank down, but did not sink to the bottom of the river. His entire person was thus floating in the center of the river, even slowly floating downstream along with the surge of the river.

Water was all around him; his entire body was wrapped up in water, the coldness even assailing his limbs.

All of this, should be able to be controlled by him...

Nie Yi suddenly had a mysterious thought; he felt that he was water.

He did not use his spiritual strength to study his ability nucleus. As a result, a change occurred in his ability nucleus right at this time.

The ability nucleus that was originally fused water and fire abilities suddenly became identical to a water ability nucleus. The beautiful wisp of fire-red in the ‘transparent crystal ball’ had unexpectedly disappeared.

No. Not disappeared. Rather, all of the fire-red was suppressed to the center of the ability nucleus, leaving behind a small red dot.

“What happened to Nie Yi?” When Nie Yi first sank down, Qi Jingchen was still able to remain calm. After a long while, he could no longer remain still and stood up.

Ping Shengchao was also a little worried, but he really could not give an answer, and could only stare at Nie Yi in the river.

Qi Jingchen’s spiritual strength covered Nie Yi again, and he realised that Nie Yi had a layer of spiritual strength attached around his body. He only relaxed after realising that the layer of spiritual strength was also extremely placid. Then, the next second, he suddenly had a strange sensation— he seemed to sense lots and lots of water, water that encompassed the world.

Nie Yi who was drifting downwards, knocked against a rock and suddenly woke up, then climbed ashore. The next second, his drenched shirt was suddenly dry.

“My ability recovered,” Nie Yi smiled at Qi Jingchen.

It shouldn’t be said that his ability had recovered, but that it was now able to be used instead. At the same time, he also had gained a deeper understanding of his ability.

It was a profound sensation. If he had to describe it, his past understanding of water was just the usual flowing water. But just now, he saw molecules of the water, and water was now different in his eyes.

Since he could use his water ability, then his fire ability naturally would be the same... Nie Yi looked at his hand, and a fireball appeared.

His ability nucleus had two types of abilities. This was very different from how he used to utilise his ability. But, as long as he diligently practised, he believed that it would become just like before.

“Congratulations, boss!” Ping Shengchao said.

On the contrary, Qi Jingchen was calm, asking, “Fish?”

“I’ll go catch it!” Nie Yi turned and leapt into the water. This time he didn’t have to suffer from the cold, so much that the water around him began slowly warming up.

A few fishes in the river were attracted by the ‘warm current’ around him and slowly came closer, welcoming their fate of being frozen into ice.

Catching fish with his spiritual strength and ability really was extremely convenient! Nie Yi returned from his rewarding trip, and finally carried up more than ten ice blocks up the shore.

This river was constantly flowing, and the source was also from the nearby river, so it conversely did not become that polluted, so Qi Jingchen could also accept the fish.

Nie Yi didn’t quite know how to cook fish, so, in a rare moment, Qi Jingchen personally cooked. He made a bowl of fish soup, sweet and sour fish, and even cured two fishes with salt, intending to eat them tomorrow.

His culinary skills were very good, and Nie Yi ate with extreme relish. Qi Yaoyao watched this scene from afar, but could only grit her teeth in regret—Previously when her ge cooked, she had disliked it and thought it wasn’t tasty, wanting to eat outside. But now, she couldn’t eat it at all...

After restoring his ability, Nie Yi sped up the construction of the secure base in the mountains.

Every day, the earth ability users of the Chenguang Team would stealthily go into the mountains, remolding the environment and creating tunnels. Other ability users would also help. At the same time, various supplies were moved in with the help of Qi An and Xiaomao.

The earth ability users of the Chenguang team were the most skilled in building houses and constructing campsites. They only spent five days of work and finished the prototype of the secure base, even constructing several tunnels that opened in all directions. And at this time, their supplies had already been completely placed into the cave.

During these five days, Nie Yi was very busy, while Qi Jingchen was incredibly bored. During this time, he even found the time to care about Xu Yehui’s family.

Honestly speaking, it was rather amusing. When he did not order for them to be locked up, Xu Qiuyu was desperate to die, insisting that Nie Yi had to visit her, or else she would not eat or take medicine. But once she was locked up, she no longer made a fuss; not only did she obediently eat, she even asked outsiders to give her medicine.

This person... really was a bitch.

This morning, Nie Yi gathered the members of the Chenguang Team, then called on the survivors in the village.

Nie Yi had spoken of himself departing long ago. Although these survivors were somewhat afraid of the future, they had already accepted this.

“Now, I want to ask you about something. Do you want to detonate the road leading to outside the village?” Nie Yi said.

This village only had one road leading to the outside world. If it was exploded, they would be safer, but it would also be inconvenient for them if they wanted to leave.

These survivors discussed for a while, and finally made a decision to blow it up.

If this cement road was not blown up, perhaps one day, there would be a group of survivors running over with a group of zombies. If it exploded, and they created some earthen walls and such, it would be a lot safer.

The Chenguang Team left this village, then exploded the road with the bombs they brought.

This night, all the members of the team appeared in the secure base Nie Yi had settled on.

Two people were gathered in an enormous mountain cave. This cave was very tall and large. The open space in the middle was enough for two thousand people to sit, and there were also several small holes dug out at the side where people could live.

“In the future, this will be our secure base,” Nie Yi said to the people he had interacted with for a few months.

“This place really is very good!”

“It’s gorgeous, and safe!”

“It’s just that it won’t be easy to find a wife.”

...

Everyone began speaking excitedly.

“You all will remain here, while I will bring Jingchen, as well as Ping Shengchao and the rest to leave for a period of time,” Nie Yi said. “When I leave, everything here will be taken charge of by Fei Xuelei.”

“Nie shao!” The people who had been excited were now anxious. After such a long time, Nie Yi had already become their pillar. None of them wanted Nie Yi to leave.

“I will return.” Nie Yi smiled. He wanted to take all the ‘chances’ that he knew of, contact his uncle, and strengthen himself as quickly as possible, so that he could kill off that person who plotted against him and Qi Jingchen!
