To avoid exposing that she still had water.
Of course, it was also because she knew that using spiritual spring water wouldn't clean her properly.
Unless all impurities in the body were removed, it would only get worse.
So Yun Xiaoxiao maintained an expression of heroic sacrifice.
Fortunately, there was a pond not far from the roadside.
Ling Jing carried her over, and she was finally able to escape.
She took deep breaths of fresh air.
She had never found the air so refreshing.
In her heart, she once again cursed Ling Jing's ancestors for eighteen generations.
She quickly hid under the lotus leaves by the pond, took off her smelly clothes, and changed into a new set.
After both of them were cleaned up, they returned to the roadside, got into the car loaded with supplies, and continued their journey towards Rongsheng Base.
Watching Yun Xiaoxiao sitting in the passenger seat, leisurely munching on snacks,
Ling Jing glanced at her sideways, "Are you treating me like a driver?"
"You can choose not to drive, I didn't force you to."
Yun Xiaoxiao said nonchalantly, swinging her little feet.
If it weren't for wanting to meet up with Big Brother and the others, she would have hidden in her space long ago, why bother talking so much with him?
With a free driver and bodyguard, she was naturally happy to be at ease.
Besides, all of this was because of him; if he didn't act like a beast of burden, who would?
Ling Jing: ...Hehe...
"I have a question, are you really mentally ill?"
Yun Xiaoxiao tossed a piece of potato chips into her mouth, chewed it, and it was crispy.
"You guess?"
Ling Jing's lips curved into a smile, his gaze long and deep.
"And you, being so young and wandering outside, are your parents dead?"
Although the question was extremely impolite,
Yun Xiaoxiao didn't get angry, instead, she smiled slightly.
"What are parents? Can they be eaten? Do their lives or deaths matter to me?"
Ling Jing raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised as he looked at Yun Xiaoxiao.
His narrow fox eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of amusement flickered.
"Indeed, parents are not things, their lives or deaths don't concern us."
That's right, the little one beside him was so to his liking.
It turned out, they were the same kind of people...
The two of them chatted aimlessly about all sorts of random things.
As evening approached, they finally saw a building surrounded by mud in the distance.
They knew their destination had arrived.
This was the legendary Rongsheng Base.
A wide road led straight to the base's gate.
The closer they got, the clearer it became.
The base was originally a sports park, but it had obviously been modified later.
The current walls should have been reinforced and raised by earth-type ability users.
Roughly looking, they were about ten meters high.
There were people patrolling with guns on the city walls, looking very vigilant.
A metal gate was installed at the base entrance, but it was currently wide open.
A checkpoint was set up at the gate.
There were many staff in white protective suits.
And many soldiers in special combat uniforms, ready at any moment.
Survivors from outside wanting to enter the base had to undergo checks to see if they were infected.
Even those in cars had to get out and undergo checks.
The base looked quite formal.
When Yun Xiaoxiao and Ling Jing drove up, they saw a long line had already formed at the gate.
Various vehicles were also parked by the roadside.
Before they could get close, fully armed soldiers with guns signaled them to park by the roadside and get out for inspection.
Yun Xiaoxiao thought Ling Jing would just kill and drive straight in, disregarding everything.
But to her surprise, he actually got out obediently.
This made her a bit surprised.
Since Ling Jing wasn't causing trouble, she, the good girl, naturally had to be as obedient as possible.
So she obediently opened the door, chewing on a strawberry-flavored lollipop, and jumped out of the car.
She even cheerfully greeted a soldier with a gun,
"Hello, big brother, you're so handsome!"
The soldier blushed slightly, feeling a bit embarrassed.
He coughed lightly and kindly reminded,
"You go over there and line up for inspection. If there's no problem, you can get a pass and drive your car in."
"Big brother is so nice~"
The soldier blushed even more.
"Tsk~"
Ling Jing sneered, picked up Yun Xiaoxiao, and walked towards the line.
Yun Xiaoxiao didn't struggle, too lazy to walk, comfortably nestled in his arms, enjoying her lollipop.
Besides, Ling Jing's face was pleasing to the eye.
Sure enough, as soon as Ling Jing approached the line, several female survivors in front of them couldn't help but look at him.
Their admiring gazes couldn't be hidden.
"Little brother, are you and your sister also here to seek refuge at Rongsheng Base?"
A long-haired girl around eighteen or nineteen stared at Ling Jing with burning eyes, almost as if she wanted to stick her gaze on him.
Ling Jing gave her a leisurely smile, "What do you think?"
His voice was slightly seductive, like a bewitching spirit.
As soon as he finished speaking, Yun Xiaoxiao saw the girl's breath catch, her cheeks flushed red, and little stars flashing in her eyes.
She looked like her soul had been captured.
Yun Xiaoxiao inwardly complained, what a male fox spirit, he's quite good at seduction.
"Are you cursing me?"
A teasing voice suddenly came from above.
Yun Xiaoxiao looked innocent, shaking her head blankly.
"No, I'm praising you."
"Oh~ Really?"
"Of course."
"Little brother, your sister is so cute."
The girl complimented Yun Xiaoxiao.
She then took out a chocolate and handed it to her.
"Little girl, have this."
Yun Xiaoxiao knew the girl was using her to get closer to Ling Jing.
But she didn't care, what was given to her was hers.
She smiled brightly and accepted it.
"Thank you, big sister, you're so pretty, and you match my brother so well."
Hearing this, the girl blushed and glanced at Ling Jing, quickly saying 'where, where,' and then gave her a bag of plum candies.
Yun Xiaoxiao accepted it without hesitation.
What she got through her own efforts, there was no need to be shy.
"Heh..."
A fake laugh came from above again.
He pointed at Yun Xiaoxiao and said to the girl, "She's not my sister, she's my daughter."
The girl:......
She opened her mouth in disbelief.
"But she looks about five years old, and you're at most twenty, right?"
"Who says a twenty-year-old can't have a five-year-old child? If you're willing, I can also let you..."
Ling Jing narrowed his eyes, his tone a bit wicked.
The girl:......
"Filthy pervert! Creep!"
The girl immediately felt she had been blind.
She turned her back angrily.
Yun Xiaoxiao, who was eating a lollipop, almost choked on her own saliva.
This Ling Jing, quite the flirtatious one...
The next second, the girl turned back and snatched the chocolate and plum candies from her hand.
Yun Xiaoxiao:......
