Chapter 58
A Luo looked at him with confusion, but finally nodded and followed him back with lingering fear.
In the makeshift tent they had set up on the other side, Boji had already prepared water. Seeing them approach, he extended his hand and said, "I'm just waiting for your firewood."
He pushed up his glasses that were about to slide down: "Why are you going so slowly?"
Wen Bei curled his lips: "I met an interesting little guy."
A Luo recalled the appearance of the white fox and shuddered. Although the white fox had saved him twice, it was surrounded by a strong murderous aura, which had nothing to do with the three words "little guy".
He looked at Wen Bei hesitantly, but in the end he did not refute.
Bo Ji thought they had encountered some rare distorted creature, and just as he was about to ask a few more questions, Wen Bei started to ignite.
After the water boiled, he tore open five packets of instant noodles and threw them into the pot.
The small milk pot was not big enough, so he specially replaced it with a large solid black porcelain pot.
When the water on top started bubbling, he threw all the instant noodles in and poured all the seasoning packets in.
Of course, instant noodles require ham and eggs. They didn’t have eggs, so they added two more sausages.
The instant noodles had a strong aroma and were spicy, and the noodles softened quickly.
There was also smoke in the snow.
Even though there were only four of them and they ordered five packets of instant noodles, it was actually not enough.
Everyone was an adult male, and their appetite was very good when it was cold, so everyone could eat at least two packs.
Bo Ji used long chopsticks to scoop a bowl for Wen Bei first. Under someone's gaze, he piled most of the ham sausage into Wen Bei's bowl.
His bowl looked the most filling.
Wen Bei took the bowl but didn't start eating right away. Instead, he sat down a little further away from them with the bowl, and said in a somewhat beguiling voice, "This instant noodles smells so good."
Ah Luo was a little stunned. He always ate quickly and hurriedly. After taking a big sip, he said, "It really smells good."
Wenbei: “Ham sausage is also delicious.”
Ah Luo nodded vigorously: "Yeah, it's delicious!"
The fragrance spread further in the direction of the wind.
Ah Luo finished his noodles in a few big mouthfuls and wiped his mouth: "Boss, if you don't eat it quickly, it will get cold, and it won't taste good if it gets cold."
Wen Bei moved his chopsticks twice, revealing a somewhat reluctant expression: "It smells delicious, but tastes just average."
A Luo was shocked: "It's delicious."
He really wanted to say that he was willing to help, but in the end times, this behavior was no different from stealing people's food, which was a very bad thing, so he held back, swallowed his saliva and looked at the bowl of noodles in his hand.
This purely natural and unpretentious action made the bowl of noodles in Wen Bei's hand look even more delicious, as if his behavior at the moment was extremely unforgivable.
Wen Bei put the bowl of noodles aside, seemingly unconcerned: "Forget it, I'll go eat some bread."
If you want to feed timid animals, you need to put the food aside and take your time. The more you want them to appear, the deeper they hide. Instead, if you walk away carelessly, they will come out to eat by themselves when they feel safe.
Although the white fox has nothing to do with being timid, the principle applies.
It took the poisonous scorpion away as prey, which means it must be hungry at this moment.
Is a bowl of delicious noodles not as good as a poisonous scorpion?
For filth, he might choose the latter, but Wen Bei didn't think the white fox was filth.
This can be inferred from its action of saving A Luo again.
Sure enough, not long after Wen Bei left, a furry white figure appeared.
Its fur blends perfectly with the white snow. If Wen Bei didn't have supernatural powers that made his ears and eyes more sensitive, it would be difficult to detect its approach.
When it approached the bowl of noodles, it did not open its mouth to bite it immediately. Instead, it sniffed it vigilantly and squatted aside. Half a minute later, when the steam from the bowl of noodles had died down, it suddenly moved and snatched the bowl away in a flash.
Wen Bei had the opportunity to use his supernatural powers to stop it, but he just let the white fox take the bowl of noodles away.
There is one more thing to note when feeding small animals.
When you are not familiar with feeding the fish for the first time, do not touch it rashly, as you may get bitten or frightened. Feed it repeatedly several times, and you can touch it freely after it gets familiar with you.
Once you have done it the first time, the next ones will be easier.
At night, Wen Bei first put a piece of chocolate on the hood of the car and then walked away.
But this time he was a little closer and didn't say anything. He just stood at a relatively safe distance and looked at the chocolate.
He is very patient, and his naturally upturned mouth corners make him approachable even when he is not smiling.
This time, the white fox took the chocolate away right in front of him.
Wen Bei saw its appearance for the first time with his own eyes. The tears of blood stopped flowing. The dried blood remained on his face, staining the furry fox face and making it look a bit weird.
Those fox eyes were completely empty, not just simple black eyes, but empty.
But when it stared at Wenbei, Wenbei felt like he was being watched.
He used his supernatural power again, not to control the white fox, but just to see its worth.
[Equivalent Transaction] This ability can not only be manipulated, but also used as an auxiliary to change thinking.
Controlling an ordinary bowl only costs one crystal, while controlling a living creature has a huge area jump.
Wen Bei had seen that controlling someone like Bo Ji, whose combat power was almost zero, only required a cheap 200 crystals per minute, while controlling most polluters required thousands or even tens of thousands of crystals, depending on their strength.
The most expensive one he had ever seen was Ji Mingyuan, who required 50,000 crystals to control for one minute.
One minute is because his current mastery of his supernatural powers is not high enough, and he needs more practice to increase the control time, but sometimes when he wants to kill someone silently, one minute is enough.
Especially when encountering a dangerous game, let alone controlling for a minute, even half a second may completely overturn the battle situation.
But there are exceptions.
Wen Bei suddenly remembered something and glanced at the man standing not far away.
He still couldn't see how many crystals Qiu Tincture needed. The three question marks on it seemed to represent the unknown and unfathomable.
At least so far, he has no way to control Qiu Tincture.
Wen Bei turned his gaze back to the white fox, and this time he clearly saw its worth.
Fifty-two thousand.
A full two thousand more crystals than Ji Mingyuan!
In other words, this white fox can defeat Ji Mingyuan.
Wen Bei was a little shocked.
The white fox didn't know that his true identity had been exposed, so he took away the chocolate.
What's rare is that it didn't move too far away, but started eating nearby, with chocolate paste on its lips.
Noticing Wen Bei's probing gaze, the white fox paused its paws, picked up the chocolate, jumped behind a huge rock, hid and ate it.
Wen Bei couldn't help laughing.
It really looks like a vigilant stray animal.
He pretended not to notice that the white fox had its mouth full, and turned back to the makeshift tent to sleep.
There was only one tent and two sleeping bags. Wen Bei gave the car to Bo Ji and A Luo, and slept in the tent with Qiu Ting.
Although the tent didn't have the shelter from the cold as the car, he had a big, hot tail to hold onto.
Wen Bei raised his hand and Tail went into his arms.
Very tacit understanding.
As we all know, cats and cat tails are two different species, so Qiu Tinge's tail and the one he conjured up are also different.
Wen Bei thought righteously, hugged the big tail and rubbed it with his soft cheek.
He closed his eyes and didn't notice that this subtle movement caused the man lying beside him to shrink his pupils, which turned into vertical pupils like a beast, with a bit of dangerous aura flowing in them.
...
When he woke up the next day, Wen Bei felt an itch on his neck, so he reached out and scratched it.
When Boji saw those signs of ambiguity, he immediately made a hissing sound like a duck with its neck being strangled.
Wen Bei: "What's wrong with you?"
Boji shook his head violently: "No, it's okay."
Wen Bei looked at him suspiciously. He had originally wanted to look in the rearview mirror to see if he had been bitten by a strange insect, but he forgot about it after being interrupted. He went straight to his backpack to find a piece of toast to eat.
By the way, I didn’t forget to put a piece of bread in the direction of the white fox.
This time the rustling sound came especially quickly, and the white fox snatched up the piece of bread without hesitation.
Wen Bei smiled, squatted down and headed in its direction: "Do you know where the supplies disappeared?"
The white fox stared at him, and swung its tail forward nobly, placing it in front of its paws to cover them.
The premise is to ignore the crumbs on its lips.
Wen Bei: "Can you lead the way?"
He didn't think the white fox followed them just because of A Luo.
It can be seen that A Luo has no appeal in its eyes.
Unless it's for that batch of supplies.
White Fox wants them to find that batch of supplies?
This speculation obviously had no basis, but Wen Bei's intuition became stronger and stronger.
Sure enough, after he said that, the white fox finally moved.
It stood up, and its small and light body would not sink too deep into the snow, so it walked straight to the front of the car.
Wen Bei stood up: "Follow it."
A Luo was stunned for a moment: "How did you convince it!?"
He had noticed Wen Bei talking to the white fox just now, but he didn't dare to get close.
As soon as he got close, the white fox would run away.
Wen Bei said succinctly: "Food temptation."
No one can resist the temptation of normal food before the end of the world.
A Luo had an expression of shock and understanding.
The car started up soon, and Wen Bei noticed that Qiu Ting's face looked a little gloomy.
The man was in a very good mood when he woke up this morning.
But he was already used to Qiu Ting's mood swings and simply ignored it.
The white fox moved very fast. Although they were the ones using the transportation, the white fox was able to run steadily in front of the car and maintain a certain safe distance.
They won't lose you, nor will they catch up with you.
Bo Ji looked at the map with some concern: "This road seems to have deviated from the original route of material transportation."
He did not trust the white fox. In his eyes, the white fox was more like a filthy creature that misled people.
Wen Bei stared at the small group struggling to move forward ahead. "We can't guarantee that the people transporting the supplies won't change their direction due to threats."
Bo Ji fell silent. Apparently, he also knew that there was no absolute, unchanging road in the polluted area.
Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many people getting lost in polluted areas and unable to return every year.
Because they were in a hurry, they did not stop the car all day. The white fox seemed to be neither tired nor cold, and continued to move at the same speed.
Finally it stopped at a huge fracture, and the car stopped behind it.
cliff?
Wen Bei was stunned for a moment. After getting out of the car, he found that it was not a natural cliff, but a crack that appeared in front of him for some reason, as if it had split the earth, and the inside was unfathomable.
He stood on it and threw a stone down.
It took a long time before a slight movement was heard.
Ah Luo's face turned pale. "You mean...the supplies are down here?"
