Chapter 240: Chapter 240: We Come From the Future

The night is about to fall.

The people of Baiyang Village have already entered their tents early, ready to sleep.

After sunset, the people of Baiyang Village consciously stayed in the safest place and did not go out.

In the post-apocalypse, besides zombies, the most terrifying are the mutant animals.

The bodies of mutant animals are very agile, and a slight mishap can lead to disaster.

There are two Superpower Users taking turns at the entrance of the bunker, and there is a large bell, which would be rung in case of any situation to warn those inside.

Bai Xiqin’s family still hasn’t entered the space; instead, they are resting in the bus.

The sky is full of stars.

On days without factories operating, every night is full of stars, twinkling like any other scenery in the world.

The bus stands lonely at the entrance of the village on scorched soil, its blue and white body shining faintly under the moonlight.

Occasionally, the roars of animals and zombies remind people that under this beautiful moonlight lies the apocalypse.

Not far from the bus, two motionless people are sitting on a lush tree.

Their eyes quietly watch the bus; although they’ve been watching for a long, long time, they still feel it’s not enough.

No one can imagine what it’s like to reach old age, happen upon the apocalypse, and painfully lose sons and grandsons.

The reason they hold on is for their only surviving granddaughter, yet when they were about to find her, they lost her.

Their features are young, but those eyes are full of hardship.

Life has given them hopeful disappointment, and then despair.

At the end of the bus where the two people can’t see, the bus door gently opened.

Mr. Bai, adhering to the principle of building a fortress for the family at all costs, designed it to be comfortable, with powerful engines and a carefully planned environment.

In the apocalypse, any noise can be life-threatening, so as long as the bus’s door is not forced, the noise generated is almost imperceptible.

Leng Yebai, with a slight mischievous grin on his stern face, slowly and carefully closed the door, fearing the people inside or outside would hear.

After taking a full minute to close the door, Leng Yebai’s shadow quickly moved under the moonlight, his long legs moving fast, looking somewhat ostentatious.

Anyway, no one saw it, so Leng Yebai didn’t care.

Like a ghost with agile movements, his tall figure circled widely to quietly approach a large tree from behind.

At a distance of twenty meters from the tree, the pair in the tree suddenly turned their heads, coldly gazing at the young man in the distance.

“Hello, Grandpa and Grandma!”

Leng Yebai very gentlemanly bowed slightly, bowing from afar with a faint smile in his eyes.

The hair of the two people in front of him was pitch black, yet he used a tone of certainty.

Seemingly convinced that the two he saw were them.

The pupils of the masked pair slightly contracted, their expressions filled with shock and incredulity beneath the masks.

After a while, they returned to their senses.

They glanced back at the bus, said nothing, and jumped down from the tree, moving away from the bus.

Leng Yebai also said nothing, merely following behind them.

Truth be told, that “Grandpa and Grandma” just now was a guess; he wasn’t quite sure if they were indeed the two he thought they were.

But judging from their reaction, it was confirmed.

The three walked quickly under the moonlight, their feet stepping on the wildly growing wild grass, making a rustling sound.

Once they had distanced themselves sufficiently from the bus, the trio stopped.

The masked pair slowly reached up to remove their masks, their faces revealed under the moonlight in Leng Yebai’s eyes.

The man had thick, black hair, bold brows and big eyes, yet appeared gentle, looking like a blood brother standing next to Bai Anhai.

He even seemed younger than Bai Anhai.

The woman had sleek, black hair, her dark eyes shimmering like stars, and those eyes were very much like Xiao Niu’s.

“How did you guess?”

The refined middle-aged man spoke softly.

Leng Yebai pointed to the wrist of middle-aged Bai Zhengxuan, “Grandpa Bai also has this on his wrist.”

Middle-aged Bai Zhengxuan froze for a moment, glanced at the mutated climbing vine wrapped around his wrist, and his eyes revealed a hint of helplessness.

He lightly pressed his temple with his fingers and pulled the corners of his mouth, “This insisted on wrapping around my wrist back when we were looking for Xiao Niu. I originally didn’t want it.”

A man with a green wristband felt somewhat uncomfortable.

He had wanted to throw it away for a long time, but every time he did, it kept persistently wrapping itself back around his wrist.

There’s no shaking it off!

It’s annoying!

Leng Yebai’s mouth twitched slightly, almost imperceptibly.

Alright, it can be confirmed without a doubt.

It must be Mr. Bai.

A normal person would be delighted to encounter a mutated plant that insists on recognizing a master, but Mr. Bai is unique!

Such a humble-braggart!

“How did you come here?”

Leng Yebai finally asked his question.

Xiao Niu’s rebirth was already unthinkable, and Mr. Bai’s couple was even more extraordinary, looking a lot younger and able to appear in the same place as the two of them.

If the old couple hadn’t become younger and looked exactly like the couple on the bus, Leng Yebai would have suspected they were scientific clones.

Middle-aged Bai Zhengxuan glanced at middle-aged Liu Jing, and they both fell silent for a moment.

“Young man, can we trust you?”

Middle-aged Bai Zhengxuan directly looked into Leng Yebai’s eyes, showing a hint of seriousness in his weathered eyes.

These days, he had been watching the young man’s interaction with the Bai Family.

Knowing his family, Bai Anhai’s personality wouldn’t let him suffer any loss. As a lawyer for so many years, he was very good at reading people.

For someone whom his family deeply trusts, middle-aged Bai Zhengxuan had no reason not to.

But given the seriousness of the matter, there was still a slight hesitation.

When it comes to his family’s life, caution is paramount.

“Rest assured, Grandpa Bai, if you tell me, perhaps I can help you. You must have something important by coming here, right?”

Despite his cold demeanor, Leng Yebai’s eyes were very sincere.

He believed that anything serious that concerned this old couple must involve the Bai Family.

As long as it involved the Bai Family, he would help no matter what.

For someone orphaned, this was the only place he felt warmth as a family.

Middle-aged Bai Zhengxuan took a deep breath; despite his young appearance, he gave off a sense of aged sorrow.

“We come from the future. Our old couple awakened superpowers, thought it was a terminal illness, didn’t want to disturb Xiao Hai, so we didn’t tell them. Later when the apocalypse broke out, our old couple, having superpowers, weren’t bitten by zombies and went to the city to find Xiao Hai. In Xiao Hai’s house, we found Xiao Niu’s diary. At that time, Xiao Hai and the others were already dead, only Xiao Niu was alive.”

Speaking of this, middle-aged Bai Zhengxuan painfully closed his eyes.

These things hadn’t happened here, but in his memory, they truly existed and were experienced.

He still remembers now, Xiao Niu’s diary filled with wrinkled pages from being wet and dried over again.

It’s hard to imagine how gentle and quiet Xiao Niu spent that day.

That day, how scared their little princess must have been!
