"Is there any problem? Is there anyone else present besides me and possibly Yan Haiming?" Xu Xin shrugged.
"... You look a little different from what I imagined."
Qin Fu showed a slightly confused expression on his face, and a hint of suspicion flashed in his eyes when he looked at Xu Xin.
Xu Xin's image is still too different from Yan Haiming's.
One has to doubt it.
"He is indeed Yan Haiming." Although Zeng Tao hated Yan Haiming, she still spoke up for him, "He just sent me a private message with his watch in front of me."
"Is that so..." Qin Fu suppressed the doubts in his heart.
"I say, why do you all doubt my identity first?"
Xu Xin made an impatient expression: "Why, shouldn't I look like this?"
Zeng Tao glanced at him, rolled her eyes, and whispered, "What a waste of this beautiful appearance."
The four of them sat down, and after discussion, decided to wait for a while, have a good meal, and then set off to see the snow-capped mountains.
Because Qin Fu always felt that there was something wrong around him.
It always feels unsafe to set out now.
And Xu Xin was also worried about the stone statue.
He also kept an eye on the map, trying to find some changes on it.
But there was nothing to note around.
Taking advantage of this time, Lou Feier made some simple food.
Zeng Tao and Qin Fu both praised her craftsmanship.
"Hmm!" Zeng Tao ate very quickly, and said incoherently while eating, "This is... the most delicious meal I've had since I came to this world!"
"You've decorated the kitchen?" Qin Fu also began to eat like crazy, and exclaimed in amazement, "I never thought that I could satisfy my appetite in this world."
After living in this world of suffering for so long, they don’t have the time to cook a meal.
Usually, it is eaten directly after being simply cooked.
Simply to fill my stomach.
Lou Feier is a master cook with superb cooking skills.
Most importantly, she had the spices she got from Qi Xuefei.
There is a rich variety of seasonings, coupled with her cooking skills and the delicious ingredients unique to this world, even simple things can rival the top delicacies on Earth.
These two people, whose eating habits were not much different from those of the savages, naturally had no resistance at all.
Of course, the two were still relatively cautious.
They only started to move quickly after Lou Feier and Xu Xin had started to work for a long time and saw that both of them looked normal and Xu Xin even mocked them a few times.
After all, it was the first day they met each other, so there was no need to be so unguarded.
In fact, both of them had taken out the food they brought and were ready to eat.
But the food cooked by Lou Feier is so delicious.
I wanted to just try it briefly, but once I got started I couldn't stop.
"You put more than just salt in this dish, right?" Qin Fu asked as he ate. "Are there other seasonings in it? Where did you get them from?"
Lou Feier smiled mysteriously: "Haha, this involves my ability."
"Your ability?" Qin Fu looked up at her, a meaningful smile on his face, "Could it be the ability of a certain explorer elder?"
This guy…
"Master Explorer?" Lou Feier rolled her eyes. "You have a really rich imagination."
So rich that I could guess it right away.
She always felt that these two people came here because they thought she and Xu Xin had some relationship.
Zeng Tao swallowed the last bite, patted her bulging belly, and leaned back in the chair comfortably: "Tell me, if I come to you, can I eat such delicious meals every day?"
"You come to me just to eat delicious food? You are such a foodie." Lou Feier teased with a smile.
"Maybe there are other reasons." Zeng Tao touched her belly, showing a satisfied expression and said casually.
She turned her head and looked out the window.
In that direction, there was not only a purple-black beam of light, but also a hint of green that could be seen from Xu Xin's tree house at a glance.
Moreover, it is very conspicuous.
"I've already said that I have nothing to do with that Xu Xin." Lou Feier felt helpless. She even felt that her words were a little powerless.
After all, the distance is too close.
From Xu Xin's tree house, you can see her tree house at a glance.
No normal person would allow an enemy to live nearby.
There has to be some overlap.
But Lou Feier had only told them that she was almost killed by Xu Xin.
"I say, you don't really want to join the explorers, do you?" Xu Xin frowned, "To become someone else's slave? To give your life to someone else? Are you crazy?"
He showed a slightly disdainful expression, as if he didn't want to associate with these two people.
"You're crazy, aren't you?" Zeng Tao glared at him. "Do you think you're strong? Do you believe that I can pin you to the ground right now and you won't be able to move?"
"Young?" Xu Xin showed a disdainful expression, stretched out his hand and pressed down, comparing her height, "You? Jump up and hold my knees?"
"You...!" Zeng Tao was about to stand up on the spot.
"No, no, no! You two, can you please not do this?" Lou Feier quickly stood up and tried to hold Zeng Tao down and make her sit down.
The result was that it didn't move at all.
It felt like I was pressing on a piece of steel, nothing happened.
Under her pressure, Zeng Tao stood up easily as if there was no hindrance.
However, she did not continue to act impulsively. Instead, she snorted and sat down again: "For Lou Feier's sake, I won't argue with you. Listen carefully, if you don't make plans for the future, you might die without knowing how!"
"Haha, you, who are ranked eighth, are teaching me, who are ranked fourth?" Xu Xin showed a funny expression.
Zeng Tao clenched her teeth and stared at him.
"Hey, you guys are really interesting." Qin Fu leaned back in his chair, looking lazy. "Is it necessary to think so much? Isn't it better to let things take their own course? With our strength, if we really want to join them, they shouldn't refuse to accept us, right? We'll just survive as long as we can. If we can't make it, we can go and join District 188. I think it won't be a big problem."
"As a man, you certainly don't need to think so much." Zeng Tao said somewhat dissatisfiedly, "To surrender is just a nice way of saying it. To put it bluntly, it means you are giving up your life and becoming someone's slave. Of course I want to see what kind of person I might surrender to in the future. By then, he will definitely do something to me. If he is a disgusting person, I might as well die!"
“…doing this or that? Are you talking about Xu Xin?” Lou Feier showed a strange expression.
"Yeah, who else could it be but him?"
"Uh..." Xu Xin said with a frown on his face, "It's women like Lou Fei'er who need to consider this kind of thing. If you..."
He looked Zeng Tao up and down again: "Xu Xin is a character after all, he shouldn't be so perverted."
Although he was imitating Yan Haiming's tone, these words were also his own thoughts.
What is this little girl thinking about
She looks like...
Although legally an adult,...
Is there really any normal person who can do this
Were the people doing this really not refining copper
Zeng Tao took a deep breath, then slowly and tremblingly exhaled, the voice coming out from between her teeth: "Hey, Lou Feier, can I do it? I really can't bear it anymore."
"No, no, no, hold it in, hold it in." Lou Feier quickly persuaded her to stop.
Although she also felt that Zeng Tao's statement was a little funny.
But Xu Xin had never even touched her, so how could he go back and touch a little girl who looked like an elementary or middle school student.
Not interested in her, but interested in such a young girl
Then he is really a copper smelting pervert.
"There are female explorers, right? As far as I know, there are at least three women. Why don't you just seek refuge with women?" Qin Fu said, crossing his legs.
Judging from his appearance, he seems to have some understanding of explorers.
"What a joke! If I really want to join District 188, I will definitely choose the strongest person to join." Zeng Tao immediately rejected Qin Fu's suggestion.
"Besides, being a slave to a woman... forget it!"
If it's an elder, it's acceptable, but for women of the same age...
Thinking that she might be a mean woman, she thought of the vicious second female characters in the books she read when she was on Earth...
She rejected it outright.
If you deal with a woman like that, you'd be worse off than a man!
After all, he is the best man in the world.
The second-ranked guy in the world, Ji Chaoyang, is barely acceptable.
"Anyway, this is not something we should consider right now. Let's deal with the matter of the snow mountain first." Qin Fu leaned lazily on the back of his chair.
As he spoke, he looked at Lou Fei'er again: "By the way, Lou Fei'er, you said before that your body has mutated, right? Why do I feel that you look no different from ordinary people?"
"Are you talking about this?" Lou Feier rolled up her sleeves when she heard this.
There were blood streaks all over his arms.
"Wow!" Qin Fu's eyes focused.
Zeng Tao's expression was calm: "She has shown it to me in the room before. Her whole body is covered with bloodstains."
"Is there really such a mutation?" Qin Fu sat up straight, looking at the bloodstains on Lou Feier's arm and said, "This mutation is your ability, right? Can you make other people mutate as well?"
"What do you want to say?" Lou Feier did not answer, but asked back.
"I was wondering, if we mutate, can we join the camp of our enemies?" Qin Fu was still looking at the bloodstains on Lou Feier's arm, "If we can't beat them, then join them. What is the attitude of those mutant creatures towards you? Will they still attack you?"
This Qin Fu thinks pretty quickly.
The key to the problem was found immediately.
"I… "
"boom!"
Lou Feier was about to answer when suddenly, a clear sound like an explosion came from outside the window, interrupting her words.
At the same time, the entire tree house shook violently!
Among the people who sat down, except Zeng Tao who sat very steadily, the other three were swaying.
"What's wrong?" Xu Xin stood up immediately.
The map instantly appeared in my mind.
He was surprised to find that red dots began to emerge rapidly at a location about a hundred meters away from the tree house.
And, not one, but many!
The others also stood up.
The indifferent expression on Qin Fu's face had disappeared.
Instead, there is solemnity.
"That's the feeling. The danger I've just been feeling has appeared!"
The four of them immediately ran to the window and looked in the direction where the sound came from.
In the jungle today, there is only a few dozen centimeters of snow left, which basically does not affect walking.
And right where they were looking...
A large pit with a diameter of at least three or four meters appeared!
At this moment, there were several stone statues of mutant creatures standing and lying on the edge of the pit!
At the same time, mutated stone statues continued to crawl out of the pit.
Their faces were all facing Lou Feier's tree house!
A stone statue of an intermediate mutant creature!
Just when several people were speechless due to surprise, a huge head slowly poked half out from the pit.
The pair of eyes, gleaming with red light and as big as copper bells, looked quietly at the window through which the people were leaning their heads.
This is... a pterosaur stone statue!
