Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus-Chapter 143 - 135: Rescue People Like Fighting Fire
The vehicle sped along, with Li Yu driving steadily, his mind busy with thoughts even as he drove.
Actually, according to Li Yu's original plan, the base's population shouldn't be too large, but as time passed, he found in this post-apocalyptic world, not expanding your strength meant being replaced by others.
But he kept reminding himself not to blindly take in people. Up to now, the base had less than 60 people, but at least as far as one could see, these people were very obedient and united.
The reason why he directly integrated Song Min and the others into the base this time was actually to have them join. He could feel that Song Min and the others had wanted to join for a long time.
However, initially Li Yu hadn't thought it through, and at the time, he also needed someone outside the base with whom he could communicate at any time, so he didn't bring up the matter of them joining.
Now, it seems without hesitation, but after deep thought and consideration:
1. In the end, the base would need to increase its numbers, sooner or later personnel expansion was necessary. Having interacted with Song Min and the others over some time, they respected and acknowledged Li Yu, were not ambitious or the type to cause trouble, and were easy to control.

2. With sufficient combat power, Li Yu did not like the idea of saving the world or keeping idlers. Supporting useless people would inevitably lead to the collapse of the current system.
3. This time, Song Min even risked her life to obstruct the Salvation Army, displaying her loyalty. Since Song Min had done so, it was certain that Li Yu needed to save her.
Based on the above considerations, Li Yu decided to take them in.
....
Time passed quickly, and the vehicle maintained its high speed. As they were about to reach the base, Song Qi, sitting in the back seat, exclaimed: "Brother Li, my sister's wound has started bleeding again, a lot of blood."
Her voice was urgent, with a choking sound.
Hearing this, Li Yu looked up to see they had arrived at the gas station where the walkie-talkie signal could be received.
Without immediately responding to Song Qi, what good would answering do in this moment, he took out the walkie-talkie and spoke into it: "Third Uncle, Third Uncle. Can you hear me?"
"I'm here, Little Yu, are you guys back, all went smoothly?"
"We'll talk about that later. Now, have Li Yuan prepare the medical room. I need to save someone, Song Min. The one I mentioned to you before. Also, I brought back about a dozen people this time, all of whom were with Song Min before." Li Yu kept it short, conveying the information succinctly.
One, to have Li Yuan prepare the medical room, and the other, to mentally prepare Third Uncle and the others, since a lot of people would be entering shortly.
After hearing this, Third Uncle didn't stay silent for too long before replying, "Alright, I'll go arrange it."
The conversation ended there.
Song Qi in the back seat, although not directly answered by Li Yu, was not as nervous now, knowing that Li Yu had done what he could.
At this moment, Song Qi pressed her hand firmly against the wound on Song Min's back; the two cuts on the abdomen were not serious, it was the deep wound on the back that was too severe.
Soon, the vehicle arrived at the entrance of the base.
A few young girls looked at the electric fence with its nearly 8-meter-high walls, almost as tall as a three-story building, especially from their angle, the long, winding wall seemed like a giant dragon, leaving them somewhat astonished.
Before the vehicle even reached the entrance of the base, Third Uncle and father Li Hongyuan had already opened the gates.
The vehicle didn't stop, and went straight through into Weng City.
Due to the urgency of the rescue, the pre-established rule that any vehicle entering the base must stay in Weng City for 3 to 10 minutes before leaving was set to avoid sudden situations such as zombie transformations and threats from individuals.
At this moment, Li Yu directly said, "I, Little Sloppy, Song Min, well, Song Qi as well can come in. The rest of you, stay in Weng City for a bit."
After finishing speaking, the Third Uncle on the opposite side had no serious objections and immediately opened the door inside Weng City that led to the interior of the base.
Li Yu drove straight in, and as soon as he entered, before even a second had passed, the gate closed with a loud bang. Today wasn't the Second Uncle's turn to be on duty, but hearing what Li Yu and the Third Uncle said, he also hurried over.
From the perspective of the Second Uncle and others, although they trusted Li Yu's judgement and decision, they had heard Li Yu mention the existence of Song Min and her group before. But the always cautious Second Uncle still kept a vigilant eye.
Hearing the gate closed with a bang.
The young ladies behind them were somewhat throbbing with fear.
At that moment, they felt as if they were in an ancient Roman colosseum, surrounded by tall walls, standing next to the vehicles, they seemed so fragile and small.
Perhaps sensing their worries, Little Sloppy, a fellow woman, spoke, "Don't worry, this is the base's rule. Generally, everyone coming from outside has to stay in Weng City for a while."
Beside her, Yang Tianlong said boldly, "It'll be quick, just a few minutes."
The Second Uncle upstairs was even more mild-mannered, speaking with a friendly demeanor, "Don't worry, you're not familiar with the situation because it's your first time here. You'll understand later."
The smile on his face made the young ladies feel as if basked in the warmth of spring, finally easing their anxious hearts. It was no wonder they were so worried; if it weren't for Li Yu bringing them in, their worries might be even greater now.
Seeing the Second Uncle's attitude, the young girls felt that the people from Li Yu's base were quite nice. Especially the seemingly old middle-aged uncle, who appeared very approachable and good-natured.
Speaking of which, after Li Yu drove into the base, he headed straight for the medical room.
Song Qi, upon entering the gate, was amazed to see the size of the base; even the mountains she had seen from the outside were enclosed by walls.
Inside the base, there were gardens, and now in May, the flowers were blooming, with the sound of trickling water, so beautiful.
But at this moment, he had no mood to notice these; his eyes were only focused on his sister in his arms, his eyes revealing unmistakable anxiety and fear.
The vehicle arrived at the medical room and parked.
Li Yuan and Lai Dongsheng's second daughter, Lai Jiaqi, was already waiting at the door and rushed up to Li Yu when she saw him.
Li Yu, Little Sloppy, and Song Qi carried Song Min into the medical room, which was not too big.
But there was an operating table, five or six hospital beds. And there was a variety of medical equipment.
Originally, Li Yu had thought that they might need these someday, so he ordered many of the equipment he could buy. After the outbreak of the disease, he also took people from the base to the hospitals to collect many things.
One could say that his medical room, with its equipment, was not much less than what you would find in a county-level hospital.
They lifted Song Min onto the operating table and sent all the other men out, leaving Li Yuan, Lai Jiaqi, and Little Sloppy as the three to stay.
Lai Jiaqi wasn't great at studying and had gone to a vocational nursing school early on. Although she was just 20, she had already done a year of internship and was working at a hospital.
Now, Li Yuan and Lai Jiaqi quickly tore open Song Min's clothes, saw the bleeding wound, and began to treat it methodically.
But ten minutes passed. Li Yuan ran out and said to Li Yu, "The patient has lost too much blood, she needs a transfusion, A-type blood is needed. Brother, see if anybody is A-type blood."
