Chapter 1333: The Riddle

Everyone kept oohing and ahhing, their eyes and mouths curving with smiles.
This trip was not made in vain. Not only did they clear up the bulk of the zombies in Jiaozhong Base, but they also made such bountiful gains.
The underground storehouse basically only stored grain. There were very few fruits and veggies due to the fact that they spoiled easily.
There were some basic medical supplies, but not a lot.
Qiao Mu glanced at Mo Lian after surveying the situation. “If we bring this all back to the Mo capital, it will suffice for two months’ worth of rations.”
Should they bring back so much stored grain, Official Song from the Ministry of Revenue would probably cry his eyes out again…
“Ah, but there is so much. Even if we fill up all of our inner worlds, we won’t be able to bring all of it back! We would still have to cart it back,” a female mystic cultivator commented, troubled.
Brother Axe concurred with a nod, “That’s right. How about we make a round in the city and see if we can secure several carriages.”
“Forget about it, the zombies from before have probably torn apart all living things inside the city. Where would you find a horse.”
“Haha, with our Qiaoqiao here, what do this bit of supplies amount to!” Liang Qingqing laughed heartily as she embraced and patted Qiao Mu’s shoulders. “Come, Qiaoqiao. Bring out the storage talismans!”
Qiao Mu could not help but be amused, and she instructed while looking up at everyone, “Go gather some grain.”
Yet Brother Axe stammered, “Ah, b-but we g-get compensated for this trip, this…”
“You really are a big dummy. Quickly go and fill up a sack of grain. Each person can fill up one to two hundred pounds of grain. Consider it as an extra bonus! Everyone performed satisfactorily this time.” Duan Yue waved his hand, dismissing those team members, who then joyously went to fill up their sacks with grain.
Most importantly, these teammates were all very obedient and did not show any brainless behavior.
They worked together to finish this mission beautifully and with zero casualties. Qiao Mu was actually very delighted on the inside.
The four superhumans in the team felt a bit embarrassed.
They did not do much after joining this team, instead receiving the others’ protection and care. Being in such a team was just too agreeable.
Qiao Mu and them chatted with Situ Yi and Liang Qingqing for a bit.
When their team members cheerfully returned after gathering their grain, Qiao Mu then flung out several dozen storage talismans and collected everything inside the storehouse. Subsequently, she handed it all to Mo Lian.
“Minister Song will die from happiness.” Mo Lian shook his head in amusement.
“After so many bad things have happened, let him go and be happy.” Qiao Mu looked up distantly at the sky.
“It looks like it’s about to rain,” a female mystic cultivator commented lightly.
Qiao Mu’s brain tensed up like a taut string. “Rain?”
“Rain!” Mo Lian and Duan Yue strangely spoke in unison.
The three people confirmed that they had thought of the same thing after they exchanged glances.
“Ah, that sure enough is a good plan! Tsk-tsk.” Eldest Qin smacked his fan against his palm as he murmured this.
Beside him, Situ Yi also understood their meaning and widened his eyes in shock. “Will it really be like this?”
“Hey, hey. Hey! Why are you people talking in riddles? What are you guys talking about!” Liang Qingqing jabbed Situ Yi with her finger as she eyed everyone in confusion.
“Someone poisoned Jiaozhong Base with corpse poison.”
“You mean that these zombies did not occur out of the blue? But were made by humans!?”
