It was already around four o'clock in the afternoon, and the thick fog in the morning had completely dissipated. From a distance, Xu Xin could see Li Wenxi and Coco waving at him from the window of the tree house.
As soon as he slid under the tree house, the roots of the tree house reached down and pulled him into the tree house.
"Xu Xin!" Li Wenxi immediately came to his side, grabbed his arm, and smiled happily, "You're finally back!"
"嘤!" Coco jumped directly from the windowsill into his arms.
"I've only been gone for a few hours." Xu Xin touched Coco's little head in his arms, and pinched Li Wenxi's face.
"Hehe, it seems that it is indeed not long." Li Wenxi still smiled and held his arm tightly.
“嘤…” Coco buried her little head in Xu Xin’s arms.
Although it was only seven or eight hours, the little guy has basically been with Xu Xin since he met him and has never been separated for so long.
This time, it was really depressed.
"Wenxi has been lying by the window and looking at the snow-capped mountains for a whole day. He must feel that the time is long." Qi Xuefei walked behind Li Wenxi and joked.
"No way!" Li Wenxi blushed and argued, "I only looked at it a few times!"
"Hours at a time?"
“Hmm…” Li Wenxi’s face turned red, and she hugged Xu Xin’s arm and stopped talking.
Xu Xin couldn't help but pinch her cheek again, then turned around and said, "Sister Xuefei is here too. This climb was really possible thanks to your pills."
As he said this, he walked to the sofa and sat down, he breathed a sigh of relief, and his whole body relaxed.
It feels so good to go home after a busy day and find a little beauty and a little cutie waiting for you at home.
"Did you use any drugs?" Qi Xuefei asked after a moment's hesitation. "Can you tell us what you experienced when climbing the snowy mountain?"
"Of course." Xu Xin nodded.
He turned the bracelet and released the three beasts out first. After all, the environment inside was not very good.
The three beasts were in a bad condition when they came out, and they all collapsed on the ground.
Of course it’s not because of the darkness inside. They are not Lou Feier and would not be so scared.
The reason they were so weak was that Xu Xin had just passed through the portal. Even though they were in the bracelet, they were still affected by the portal.
However, seeing that they had returned to the tree house, the animals all relaxed. Ah Fu flew to the window and lay down, while Mimi and Silver King also walked to the fireplace and lay down to warm themselves by the fire.
Although they can withstand the cold, they still prefer moderate temperatures.
As for the giant egg and the treasure chest monster, just put them in the bracelet first and deal with them after they all go back.
Xu Xin looked towards the kitchen: "Is that Lou Feier in the kitchen?"
"It's her. Fei'er just came back and brought back the fourth person today. She has gained a lot today." As he spoke, Li Wenxi touched his backpack and took out five huge seeds. "Look, five tree house seeds!"
Really capable. Not bad.
"Come out, we have something to discuss first." Xu Xin said to the kitchen door. With his hearing enhancement, he could hear that Lou Feier was not cooking at the moment, but just hiding behind the kitchen door, eavesdropping on the sounds outside.
The kitchen door was pushed open, and Lou Feier walked out, smiling awkwardly: "Well, Master, can you not go out to look for someone today? I'm so tired..."
Because she was afraid that Xu Xin would ask her to go out again, she went to the kitchen to cook before Xu Xin came up.
"Okay, come here. I won't let you continue looking for someone today."
"That's good, that's good!" Lou Feier immediately trotted over, found a chair and sat down, looking like a good student.
"But, there is another thing for you to do."
"… well?"
Xu Xin sat on the sofa, stroking Coco in his arms, and told the people in front of him about the various things that had happened to him today.
Hearing about the various disasters Xu Xin encountered during the climb, Li Wenxi grabbed his arm, feeling both distressed and scared.
Qi Xuefei also covered her mouth gently.
She thought that climbing a 1,800-meter-high snow-capped mountain would be difficult enough, but she didn't expect that there would be so many disasters and even extreme environments.
It's not something an ordinary survivor can climb!
Only Lou Feier's eyes became brighter the more she listened. Her expression seemed to be telling Xu Xin that she found this mountain very interesting!
Finally, after talking about the stone statue on the top of the snow mountain and the function of the snow mountain formation, everyone present was silent for a long time.
"That is to say, we have a chance to meet those people over there." Qi Xuefei concluded, "But, we need another person to climb to the top of the snow mountain to trigger the teleportation array with you and Ji Chaoyang. At the same time, there must be three people over there to climb to the top of the snow mountain to trigger the teleportation array, is that right?"
"That's the problem." Xu Xin nodded, "So..."
"I'll go!" Lou Fei'er suddenly raised a hand and looked at Xu Xin with an excited expression, "Let me go! The other thing you just said you wanted to give me is this, right?"
"Well, the third person I am considering is you. With your physical fitness and this set of equipment, it shouldn't be a problem for you to reach the top."
Xu Xin talked about the advantages of Lou Feier that he had analyzed before.
"Wow, it seems that Fei'er is more suitable for climbing snowy mountains than you, except that she doesn't have the increased arm strength!" Li Wenxi was a little envious, "I also want to have such a strong ability... After taking Fei'er's pill, I can have this ability, right?"
She had longed for the mutant pill.
"No, no, no, Wenxi, don't eat it. This thing has serious side effects!" Lou Feier immediately shook her head to stop Li Wenxi.
Only by experiencing it can you know how passive you become after mutation and how various situations arise.
If it weren't for the mutated heart given to her by Xu Xin, which helped her suppress most of the side effects, she might have suffered a mental breakdown by now, staying in the tree house and not daring to go out.
"However, it would be great if we can successfully connect to that side." Qi Xuefei thought of something and smiled. "Then, with the help of those people over there, some problems will be solved."
She has actually been thinking about the number of people parasitizing the tree house.
From yesterday's beast tide, we can see that the more people are parasitic, the larger the scale of the beast tide will be and the higher the risk factor will be.
But if her medicines want to scale up, she must attract more people, because only the tree houses that are parasitic on her main tree house have the ability to cultivate and give birth to medicinal materials.
She couldn't just take the tree house without anyone in it. Besides, she was too busy to take care of it herself.
However, if the other side is connected, these problems will be solved.
There is strength in numbers, especially with Wen Guixin here. As long as she is willing to help, there is no need to be afraid of the attack of the beast tide.
She told everyone her idea.
"Yes." Li Wenxi also thought it was no problem. "If everyone can be connected, we will indeed be more confident in facing danger."
Xu Xin also nodded: "I think so too, so, since this problem can be solved, then these people's tree houses should be planted on your side, which will be more convenient. They are now..."
"In my tree house." Lou Feier said, "Two from this area, and two from Area 187. They are all ordinary survivors."
"Okay, then take the person with you when you go back today." Xu Xin nodded.
Several people also thought it was okay.
"Hey! I thought of a good way to solve the snow mountain problem!" Li Wenxi's eyes suddenly lit up. She looked at Mimi and Yin Wang who were lying by the fireplace and warming themselves by the fire, then pulled Xu Xin's arm.
"What method?"
"Think about it, you can take Mimi and Silver King through the portal, right? Isn't Fei'er also a mutant? You can put Fei'er into the bracelet and teleport through!"
"Huh?" When Lou Feier heard the word "bracelet", her whole body trembled, and then her face turned pale instantly.
She blinked her eyes: "This... shouldn't be possible? Can I drill a hole like this? I am not only a mutant, but also a survivor..."
In fact, Xu Xin had also considered this, but he felt that the possibility was not high.
You know, the portal can affect the creatures in the bracelet.
It can be seen from Mimi’s situation last time and the performance of these beasts this time that even in the bracelet, they will still have the side effects of passing through the portal.
In other words, there should be no difference whether you are inside or outside the bracelet for the portal.
Since Lou Feier is a survivor, she should not be teleported up with Xu Xin.
However, it is still worth a try. What if it succeeds
If it succeeds, it will save a lot of time and Lou Feier won't have to take risks.
If Lou Feier knew what Xu Xin was thinking now, she would definitely tell Xu Xin: I still prefer adventure rather than entering the bracelet!
"Your idea is good!" Xu Xin smiled and nodded, "We can give it a try."
"Right? Hehe! If it really succeeds, Fei'er won't have to go through those disasters!"
Lou Feier wanted to cry but had no tears. Compared with those disasters, she was more afraid of the bracelet...
She finally struggled and asked, "Do we really have to try? I don't think it's likely..."
She really didn't expect that she would be put into the bracelet even though she didn't do anything wrong and had been busy all day and made great contributions!
This is too sad!
However, she also knew that if this conjecture was true, it would indeed save a lot of trouble.
Although it's unlikely...
"Let's give it a try. Whether it works or not is just a matter of seconds." Xu Xin stood up. "Let's go and give it a try now."
"I'm going too!" Li Wenxi also stood up.
"Then I'll come along too." Qi Xuefei also said, "I haven't been close to that snow mountain yet, so it's a good opportunity for me to go and take a look."
"嘤!" Coco, who had been lying obediently in Xu Xin's arms, also raised her little paws, indicating that she wanted to go too.
"Forget it, little guy. It's cold outside." Xu Xin pressed its little paw down.
It was already past four in the afternoon. Because of the long nights in the severe winter, it was already dark outside and the temperature had dropped below minus twenty degrees Celsius. Kekeke couldn't go out.
“Hmm…” Coco’s ears drooped.
"Okay, let's go together then."
“Woo woo…” Lou Feier knew she couldn’t escape, so she could only feel sad in silence and stood up.
I always feel a sense of tragedy as if I am going to the execution ground.
If she had known this earlier, she might as well have gone out and continued looking for someone!
