Chapter 977: Chapter 780, The Schemer Ah Chapter 977: Chapter 780, The Schemer Ah Approaching the convoy, Li Yahong also came forward and said, “Where are the poultry you mentioned?”
“Over here, have someone clear out the trailer,” Wu Heng said.
Li Yahong turned around and waved her hand, signaling the accompanying survivors to start organizing the rear of the truck.
The materials that had been brought were moved into the warehouse, and some things that were not immediately needed were also transferred to another vehicle.
Wu Heng led Li Yahong towards another open space in the back.
As they got closer, they saw the iron cages filling the field and the various animals inside them.
What had been left were all types of poultry suitable for breeding.
Seeing so many animals, Li Yahong's eyes lit up instantly and she said, “Are all of these prepared for us?”
Inside the base, food was provided by Wu Heng in the form of flour, and elixirs to stimulate plant growth had also begun to be used in the fields.
Meat was the only shortage, and many had not touched any for some time.
During festivals, some scavenged canned goods would be distributed, but many were beyond their expiration date.
Wu Heng smiled and said, “They are all yours. Is the place for breeding them ready?”
“We've had it ready for a while now, and we'll first arrange for experienced survivors to breed with the Skeletons for some time. Once the Skeletons learn enough, we'll leave the breeding entirely to them,” Li Yahong looked at the iron cages before her and shared her plans.
“Good,” Wu Heng nodded and continued to order the nearby Skeletons, “Move all these cages over to the garage.”
Clatter clatter~!
The stationed Skeleton Army began to move.
Two Skeletons carried one iron cage, heading outside.
The animals themselves were not very heavy, and they were all half-dead from the bumpy journey and hunger, but the cages were quite heavy.
Standing to the side, Wu Heng continued, “I've noticed that quite a few survivors in the base have become slack.”
Li Yahong frowned, “What happened?”
Wu Heng recounted everything he had seen at the military factory.
Li Yahong sneered, “Treating it like a retirement home, huh?”
“Any suggestions?”
After all, there were few who understood the technology, and others couldn't replace them. These people couldn't be dragged out and killed for real.
Although the base was stable, it was not time to slack off and retire.
Li Yahong then said, “Regular checks might produce some effect. I'll think it over and discuss it with you later.”
“Discuss it with Qi Hancai,” Wu Heng said.
“Alright.”
The two stood at the doorway and chatted for a while.
The cages were all loaded onto the truck.
Wu Heng, along with Li Yahong, continued their tour around the prison, and he roughly outlined the future plans.
Li Yahong was attentive, but she was still not very optimistic about this Corpse Core cultivation plan.
Different from other headquarters rescue teams, they hardly had any relevant research personnel, and they were just bluntly using the Corpse Cores for nourishment.
It felt somewhat unreliable.
But nothing was certain, as what Wu Heng had come up with before had also felt unreliable.
After the visit.
The convoy stayed until the afternoon, then left the prison.
After seeing off Li Yahong, Wu Heng returned to the prison office and through the installed monitors, he could observe the conditions in each cell.
The Skeleton Alchemy Warlocks had started to inject the animals with the virus.
Soon, the animals in the camera began showing signs of zombification.
Their bodies also began to change gradually.
Meanwhile, the Skeleton Investigators and Skeleton Alchemy Warlocks also started to take notes.
Documenting every change.
Wu Heng watched through the monitors until dusk approached when three Ghosts returned from outside.
He left everything to the Skeletons and returned to Gold and Silver Island through the boundary door.
“`
…
Island Lord's Mansion.
After freshening up, Wu Heng came downstairs from the upper floor.
Just as he reached the first floor, Mini said, “Master, Steward Xi Ligui called several times today, and you weren't in.”
Mentioning Xi Ligui made Wu Heng instantly tense up.
Without thinking, he also knew why the other party would call.
“I know. I'll call her back later,” Wu Heng said with a smile.
“Okay, Master,” Mini replied with a slight smile, bouncing off to the yard with Robey.
Seeing that the living room was empty, Wu Heng picked up the phone and dialed the Steward Mansion.
After two rings, Xi Ligui's voice came from the other end, “Hello?”
“Xi Ligui, it's me…”
Before he could finish his sentence, a hushed scolding came through, “What's the matter with you, not calling all day.”
“You're a mage, you know you can't hold your liquor, why did you drink so much?”
“I wish I could come over and chop you up.”
Wu Heng held the phone, letting the other side vent for a while, before saying, “It's my fault.”
Xi Ligui's tone faltered, and she sighed softly, “Don't come over for now; stay away from Shi Yali.”
Wu Heng frowned, “What's wrong with her? The way you're talking, I'm actually getting worried.”
With some helplessness in her voice, Xi Ligui replied, “It has come to this, there's nothing else to say. You know how my sister is, seemingly careless, but she thinks a lot.”
“After some time, when she's less angry, bring some flowers and apologize. Say you were confused from drinking too much. Actually, you can tell she likes you too. Be sincere, and it won't be a big problem.”
Wu Heng was stunned, somewhat unable to react.
What situation?
What happened between these two sisters during the day?
Wait, how did Shi Yali explain it to Xi Ligui?
Damn, a negotiation expert!
Wu Heng didn't speak, and Xi Ligui hurriedly admonished, “When you come, don't smirk or be afraid of her getting angry. Let her vent until she's calm, and then I'll help you out… You really can't mess this up this time, or else…I really can't forgive you.”
Wu Heng pondered for a moment before asking, “Should I come over tomorrow?”
“Don't, don't come over these next few days. Also, steer clear of her. If she makes a move on you, just hide. She's just throwing a tantrum. You mustn't hurt her, she's my sister, and we've grown up together,” Xi Ligui continued.
“Is Shi Yali trying to kill me?” Wu Heng's eyes widened.
“She's in a fury; you mustn't hurt her, do you hear?”
“I heard. If she makes a move, I'll turn and run,” Wu Heng replied, “So when should I come over?”
“I'll call you when it's time. Don't eat the food she cooks either, in case she poisons you,” Xi Ligui emphasized again.
“Okay, where's Shi Yali now?” Wu Heng asked quietly.
“She's cooking. She really likes you too, she's just always thought that as a human, you're not suitable for the Elf Race. I'll talk to her for you, she's always been accommodating to me since we were kids, it'll be fine, she'll accept you.”
“I'll be good to both of you.”
“Hmph!” Xi Ligui snorted, then said, “Alright, I won't talk to you anymore, if she hears us, we'll start arguing again.”
“Mhm, if she tries to hit you, run toward me.”
“How could I? Enough said,” Xi Ligui said hurriedly before hanging up the phone.
Wu Heng also put the phone back, standing there thinking about what Xi Ligui had just said.
It seems that the situation is developing in a direction different from what he had thought.
Xi Ligui believed that the three of them drank too much, Wu Heng stayed and didn't leave, and Shi Yali got into the wrong bed.
In the end, the three of them slept together.
Now Shi Yali was fuming at home, wanting to come and kill him, and Xi Ligui felt responsible as well, trying to mediate the situation.
Her words suggested she was open to the three of them being together.
Damn!
Shi Yali, a schemer!
