Chapter 38 Hunting Preparation

Because they wanted to discuss Mo Xi's matter, it was not convenient to go to Yu Mu's house. The two of them went into Feng Li's house. After sitting down, Feng Li said, "Mo Xi is a celebrity here. I know him a little bit. If possible, I would not recommend you adopt him. However, you accepted a gift of over 700 gold coins from him before, so you should take him in. Therefore, I will not comment."

"Um."

Yu Mu covered her face. She really hadn't wanted to raise Mo Xi before, and she had even forgotten about the seven hundred gold coins!

She understood what Feng Li meant and nodded, saying, "He has told me everything, including that I might be retaliated against."

"The good news is that those people won't let you die. They'll just force you to abandon Moxi. But there's a chance that bugs, sabotage devices, and so on might be placed on that airship. You don't need to use it at all. You might as well buy one yourself."

"I see."

Hearing about the dangers, Yu Mu gave up the idea of ​​repairing the airship and said, "Forget it, let's not repair it. Let's go out and buy some things for tomorrow's hunt."

"What do you need?"

"You'll need weapons and protective clothing. As for guns or swords, buy whatever you like. Also, the signal on the field terminal is poor, and if you get separated from your teammates, you might not be able to find each other. You'll need to agree on a meeting place in advance. You'll also need to bring nutrient solution and water..."

There are a lot of things to buy.

Yu Mu was very interested in weapons, but she wasn't particularly good at anything. Feng Li suggested that she buy a medium-sized sword, about half a arm long and of average quality.

Yu Mu looked at the various types of guns on the counter and was eager to use them. The various gun explosion movies she had seen on TV before were shocking to her. Now she could also own such a weapon. Just imagine the scene of throwing a cannonball and killing a bunch of moles.

Absolutely strong.

But Feng Li stopped her, and Yu Mu asked curiously: "Why can't I buy a gun?"

Guns are high-tech weapons, definitely better than cold weapons like swords!

"There are magnetic storm bugs in the wild. These magnetic storm bugs affect the magnetic field, causing fired bullets to deviate from their course. Not only will they miss targets, they may also injure their own people. Furthermore, powerful magnetic storm bugs will actively search for mines, artillery shells, and various survey robots placed in the wild. If they find any, they will eat the metal inside. Furthermore, the underground will occasionally produce skills and energy fruits. International regulations now prohibit the use of firearms in field combat. If found, they will be arrested."

"So that's how it is."

Yu Mu stared dryly.

Now there are only so many things you can buy.

Yu Mu first bought protective clothing similar to Feng Li's, two sets of spare children's clothes for Mo Xi, and a protective shield for the baby, which can be used to fix the baby on the chest or back. It has a very tough bulletproof soft glass shell, so the baby is safe inside. Yu Mu was still worried that the baby would be suffocated inside, and finally found that a palm-sized face was left on the side so that the baby could see outside.

If you feel unsafe exposing your face, you can also cover it with a transparent soft mask.

This set of baby protective clothing cost fifty gold coins, which took up more than half of Yu Mu's savings, so in the end he just bought the knife and some lightweight carrying tools for water and food and went home.

"Let's have a competition tonight."

When they parted, Feng Li said to her.

"Then I'm definitely no match for you!"

When Yu Mu heard that he was going to compete with Feng Li, he was expectant but also a little afraid.

"Not necessarily. Have you forgotten that you're a first-level psychic? Your physical fitness is much higher than that of ordinary people like us. Even though I've practiced the Seven Star Fist for many years, I might not be able to match your dual cultivation of magic and martial arts!"

"Magic and martial arts dual cultivation!"

"Hahaha, you're so funny."

Yu Mu was amused by Feng Li's adjectives, and then she heard Feng Li say to her seriously, "You're going hunting tomorrow. If you only have theoretical knowledge but no practical experience, you're likely to be at a disadvantage. Although our prey this time is moles, we might encounter other wild animals. It's best to practice more. We'll have to spar every day from now on. This is a necessary process for practical improvement."

"good."

With a sparring partner like Feng Li, Yu Mu had no choice but to obey.

After agreeing to go home, Yu Mu opened the door and saw two children, one big and one small, sitting on the floor. Mo Xi was concentrating on repairing the table legs, while the baby tilted his head back to watch carefully.

This picture is very warm.

Yu Mu couldn't help but smile, but it didn't last more than a second. The two little guys heard the door open and looked at her.

Mo Xi immediately stopped and stood up, while the baby widened her eyes and stood up from the ground with a grunt. She couldn't walk yet, so she walked crookedly and fell to the ground halfway and couldn't get up.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Yu Mu hurriedly picked her up and asked, "Is it okay to stay at home with your brother?"

It would have been fine if I hadn't asked, but as soon as I asked, the baby pouted and burst into tears, tears streaming down his face, as if he had suffered a great injustice.

"Are you hungry?"

Yu Mu asked her.

She didn't answer, just cried, so Yu Mu looked at Mo Xi and asked him: "What's wrong?"

"I'm not sure, it was fine just now."

Mo Xi answered somewhat restrainedly, feeling somewhat uneasy about the baby's crying. He didn't show it on his face, but his hands unconsciously pinched the hem of his clothes.

"Are you fixing the table legs? You can continue."

Seeing that he was very careful, Yu Mu couldn't help but soften his tone.

Mo Xi relaxed, nodded, and looked at the baby anxiously, saying, "She woke up crying just now. I fed her a bottle of nutritious milk, and then she watched me fix the table leg."

"OK, thanks."

Yu Mu smiled and said, "Thank you very much for helping me take care of her. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to go out today. Oh, by the way!"

Yu Mu thought of the airship and couldn't help but said dejectedly: "I asked my friends, and your airship probably can't be used."

"It's okay, I know."

Mo Xi lowered his head and began to repair the table legs.

Yu Mu frowned. Mo Xi seemed very sensible. What on earth did the Mo family mean? Why would they abandon and suppress such a good child?

"Mother."

While she was thinking, she felt the baby touching her face with his soft little hands and talking in her ear.

"What's wrong?"

Yu Mu looked at her, and the baby pointed his little hand at Mo Xi and said, "Hmm?"

He couldn't speak, but the expression on his face was very clear. He was asking who Mo Xi was? Or was he asking: Will he be in our house from now on?

"Oh, yes, this is Brother Moxi. He will live in our house from now on."

Yu Mu introduced her.

"Wow...Brother."

The baby sucked her fingers. She didn't have time to learn several words her mother taught her, and she only knew the two words "brother"!

"Brother Moxi."

Yu Mu continued to teach.

"Nosy."

The baby said with difficulty, sucking her fingers even more happily. Yu Mu saw that her fingers were wet from sucking, so he took the fingers out of her mouth and said: "Don't suck your fingers when you are learning to speak. It will not make your speech standard. Say Brother Moxi."

"Brother Moxi."

The baby was unhappy about having her finger taken away. She glared at Yu Mu and repeated reluctantly. Yu Mu tapped her nose and said, "You're angry already? Hahaha. I'm telling you, I'll take you out hunting tomorrow. Hunting, you know?"

The baby stared blankly. She didn't understand what her mother said.
