Chapter 85
As a privilege of the hotel owner, Wenbei would urgently clear the area when entering the back garden and give tourists some small gifts as subsidies, such as free vegetables grown in the back mountain, so that they would be willing to leave temporarily.
The hot spring was filled with steam, and only two shallow breathing sounds could be heard.
Qiu Ting quickly took off his shirt, revealing his strong upper body, his muscular chest muscles and his well-defined abdominal muscles.
Wen Bei took a look and immediately straightened his shoulders. He raised his hand to lift up all his wet hair, revealing his sharp eyebrows.
Ignoring the man who was dressed up like a peacock, Wen Bei raised his chin and said, "Go down by yourself."
Qiu Ting's eyes were deep: "Aren't you coming with me?"
Wenbei: “…”
He showed an incredible expression, as if asking why he had such a bold idea.
How could a sheep deliver itself into the wolf's mouth?
Naturally, he had to wait until the man finished washing before taking a bath. The reason he called him over was because he was afraid that the blood on his body would become a strange source of pollution, so he wanted to use the hot spring water to wash away the blood.
Qiu Ting made no effort to conceal his regret. His voice was low and he said, "Then come here and help me."
The last three words were almost hidden between the lips and teeth, carrying an indescribable sadness.
...
Another week had passed since the last incident in Butterfly Valley. We were still traveling during the day and returning to the hotel to sleep at night. Finally, we were approaching the Yi Guang base.
What Wen Bei didn't expect was that the Yi Guang base was actually built in a vast wasteland.
There were no cities or houses around, only endless vicious dogs drooling and deformed into filth.
Each vicious dog was extremely skinny, with thin brown fur covering its ribs. Its completely black eyes were surrounded by a circle of dark purple bloodstains, and its teeth in its mouth were yellow and numerous, looking like they could easily crush bones.
Above the wasteland is a huge, towering cylindrical building, and above that towering building is the Yi Guang Base.
The way this base protects itself is not by being buried deep in the ground or by covering itself to isolate itself from the outside air and danger, but by building a brand new "castle in the air".
There are guns on top of this cylinder, and they will shoot and kill the vicious dogs if they get close.
The vicious dogs smelled the scent of humans and were reluctant to leave, but they could not climb up the smooth building, so they could only wander around nearby, and when they howled at night, they would attract other companions.
Whenever a brave vicious dog approaches, it will be shot into a sieve by the machine gun, and its body will become a delicious meal for other vicious dogs.
Judging by the naked eye, the height of that "castle in the sky" can be measured to be at least 500 meters, and it is difficult to see what is on top.
As a building completed after the end of the world, it can indeed be called a "work of art".
With such talents and strong strength, it is no wonder that the base has become the "largest base".
Wen Bei chose to place the entrance of the hotel one kilometer away from the Yi Guang base. This not only avoids being targeted by the pack of vicious dogs, but also makes it convenient for future polluters from the Yi Guang base to come and consume.
This was the first time he used the blue [Jump] function. Unlike the red one, once this place was selected as the "store", it could not be changed.
The moment the store was formed, Wen Bei could hear a reminder about the hotel upgrade in his mind.
In the wasteland one kilometer away from the Yi Guang base, an area surrounded by fog slowly appeared.
Amidst the mist lies a manor of exceptionally beautiful appearance.
Only the boss and employees can freely enter and exit the main store and other stores. When you open the door, there are a few small buttons next to it to choose the exit.
If they choose Exit 1, they will come out to the same place as before. If they choose Exit 2, they will arrive near the Yi Guang Base.
As for ordinary passengers, they will return to the same exit as they came in.
Upon hearing about the new store, Ji Mingyuan and others ran out to watch. The white fox and the rabbit butler, who had always been at odds, also applauded and shook hands and made peace for a while.
Rabbit Butler: "Let's have hot pot tonight to celebrate."
The hotel's retail area was expanded again two days ago, and now it has grown from the size of a convenience store to the size of an ordinary supermarket.
There was a whole row of shelves selling wine. Su Wu picked up two boxes at once. There was a hint of anticipation on the boy's face, as if there were stars in it, making it hard for people to refuse.
As soon as he opened his mouth, his rough and tumble nature was exposed: "One of us must go together tonight!"
After all, they had successfully established a store next to the largest base, and had recently escaped from an S-level filth creature. It was a rare relaxing night, and Wen Bei did not stop the excited employees.
He followed the cheerful staff into the hotel. The rabbit housekeeper also caught a fish from the koi pond in the front garden to use as food for tonight.
The allure of hot pot seems so great that Wenbei has begun to consider the possibility of selling hot pot in hotel restaurants.
The menu includes options such as oden. After developing oden and spicy hot pot, hot pot will not be far behind.
Unfortunately, there was a sudden noise outside, interrupting the employees' celebration.
A fog suddenly appeared in the wilderness. As long as the people at Yi Guang Base discovered it, they would definitely send people to search for it quickly, but Wen Bei didn't expect someone to come so soon.
It took less than half an hour to set up their store.
The convoy that arrived was a group of bandits. From their words and actions, it was easy to tell that they were shocked, even terrified, by the sudden fog and the manor hidden in the fog.
The rabbit butler skillfully came forward to introduce the hotel to them.
He uses one rhetoric after another, and it's obvious that he often fools people.
The leader was wrapped in white bandages, with only one eye showing. One could tell the skin beneath the bandages was the color of burns. That eye had no eyelids, so it couldn't close. He stared straight at Wen Bei, his mouth opening in a hoarse voice, "Are you the boss?"
The slender and beautiful young man with black hair and black eyes standing here seemed out of place among the group of polluters.
Wen Bei smiled politely, his natural smile making him look very friendly. "Yes, you can skip the line at the hotel restaurant now."
It's not mealtime, most people are playing mahjong or doing other activities in the activity hall, and it's rare to see fewer people in the restaurant.
"Boss, there are unfamiliar faces here." Someone leaned over to the bandaged man and whispered.
Doesn't look like someone from the base.
Wen Bei pretended not to hear and continued to smile politely.
Bandaged Man: "Is this your ability?"
When he saw the manor in the fog, his first reaction was that it was an illusion, but after eating the oriole tail flower that could dispel illusions, the manor still did not disappear.
Wen Bei: "I am just the owner of this hotel. If guests have any questions, they can ask my staff first."
The bandaged man turned around and saw Ji Mingyuan. He could feel that the other party was quite strong, but he didn't take it to heart.
His strength was also among the best in the Yi Guang base. Moreover, these people were all strangers whom he had never heard of. Such polluters would definitely not be able to defeat him.
Su Wu swung his feet aside, looked at Ji Mingyuan with a smile, and spoke to him word by word with his lips: You seem to be underestimated.
Ji Mingyuan's expression was calm: "It's okay."
His reputation is very famous in the H City base, so people who come to the hotel will generally give him face and stay quiet and not cause trouble. The polluters in the Yi Guang base don't know him, and are destined not to be as obedient as the polluters in H City.
But the only thing that is certain is that all uncertainties in the end times can be solved with fists.
On this point, he and Wusu formed a rare united front.
The bandaged man was still a little cautious. He brought a group of his men and walked into the restaurant in a grand manner, making quite a noise.
A group of people kept exclaiming in amazement like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, but they did not restrain themselves and made a lot of noise.
There was a polluter eating in the restaurant. When he saw them coming, he looked around curiously.
The skinny guy next to the bandaged man immediately raised his hands and said angrily, "What are you looking at?"
Ji Mingyuan frowned: "Please do not use violence in the hotel."
"Don't use violence?" The bandaged man seemed to find this suddenly appeared hotel very interesting. His expression beneath the bandages turned sarcastic. "What a strange place."
Their arrogance turned into smiles when they saw the restaurant's menu and the realistic pictures on it.
During this journey from H City to Yi Guang, Wen Bei encountered many filth that he had never seen before, and collected them and turned them into raw materials for unlocking recipes and bath balls.
The restaurant now is no longer the one with monotonous food, but now has more than 30 dishes.
The skinny monkey pointed at the beautiful picture and asked in disbelief, "Does it really look like this?"
He was in a trance.
Ji Mingyuan: "Our actual product matches the picture."
The skinny monkey pointed at a hot dog bun and looked very dissatisfied: "What if the food served is different?"
This is clearly a picture of food from before the apocalypse. This hotel is indeed a black-hearted place.
Others also stared at Ji Mingyuan unfriendlyly.
Ji Mingyuan, who was suddenly stared at by more than a dozen polluters, did not panic at all. He tapped the table lightly and said, "If it's different, then I'll treat you to a free meal."
Skinny Monkey and the others looked at each other for a moment, and finally made the final decision: "Serve us the food."
There were so many of them that they ordered almost all the dishes on the menu.
I don't believe that the dishes will be exactly the same.
The companion next to the skinny monkey sneered: "We are not easy to fool. If the dishes served are different, we won't pay a penny."
The bandaged man looked at him approvingly.
Ji Mingyuan didn't say anything. He walked into the kitchen with a very calm look and soon came out with a plate.
There are three dishes on top - a fried food platter, a hot dog bun, and fried noodles with egg.
The fragrance coming from the plate in his hand was almost captivating, as if it penetrated straight into his soul.
The group of people who had just looked disdainful were attracted by the fragrance and looked over with their eyes wide open.
