Chapter 49 Carrot Surrenders
But Zou Kai is not an ordinary person. How could a playboy who has been indulged in the world of pleasure for more than ten years not see the true beauty that women deliberately hide?
Yu Min, who was quick-witted, immediately sensed something was wrong in Zou Kai's words.
You should know that "that bastard" is a word used to insult people.
It seems that Zou Kai has a deep grudge against Zhang Jun, and his tone does not hide his disgust and contempt for him at all.
Yu Min rolled her clever eyes a few times before bravely approaching Zou Kai, but still maintaining a safe distance of two meters.
Clearing his throat, he said, "Excuse me, are you and Zhang Jun not on good terms?"
He used honorifics to show his utmost respect. Yu Min was also worried that even if all the superpowered people on his side joined forces, they would not be able to defeat this man. It would be bad if they angered him.
Zou Kai's eyes were playful, and he didn't directly answer Yu Min's question. Instead, he asked, "So? Whether the relationship is good or not, what do you want to do?"
Seeing that there was no bloodthirsty murderous intent in the opposite eyes, Yu Min felt relieved a little. He attacked directly, pointing at Tang Qing and her daughter, and then at himself.
"They are Chai Yisan's men, and I am from the Linlin Base. Why don't you abandon the dark and join the light and come to our base? You will never have to worry about food."
Zhou Kai folded his arms and leaned lazily against the upright bamboo. He didn't have a big appetite. Before the apocalypse, he didn't have high requirements for food, but after the apocalypse, the amount of food he could put into his mouth decreased dramatically. Even though he was not picky, he often worried about what to eat today.
Later, after entering the Dawn Base, I could use crystal cores to buy filling food, but... due to the excessive demand, the vegetables could not be picked until they were fully ripe, and the cooking conditions were also limited, so the taste was naturally not good.
Zou Kai, who was used to delicacies from land and sea before the end of the world, found it difficult to adapt to the breakfast, lunch and dinner sold at the base. Now that Yu Min proposed the benefits, he couldn't help but feel tempted.
But... he couldn't tell whether what the other party said was true. Logically speaking, the bases should be similar, so he might be exaggerating on purpose.
Fortunately, Lin Luyan had foresight. In addition to giving Yu Min a pack of wet wipes in advance, she also took out a very well-grown carrot, which was red and big, making people want to bite it directly when they saw it.
As for the tomatoes that Yu Min had originally put in his pocket for himself, he would never take them out no matter what.
Although carrots can fill you up, they don’t quench your thirst. Moreover, Yu Min is a picky eater. She eats meat and rice first, and always puts vegetables last.
Since Zou Kai raised the question, Yu Min generously took out the carrot from his pocket, handed it to him, shook it a few times, and let Zou Kai taste it.
The Sun siblings were stunned by this move. Was this older brother Doraemon from the cartoon? His pockets were like a treasure chest, allowing him to take whatever he needed.
So cool!
The carrots were irradiated by flames from head to root, and they looked really juicy.
"If this thing is poisonous, all of you will be finished before I die."
After giving a domineering warning, Zou Kai took a small bite without any hesitation, and his expression suddenly became subtle.
Um……
It tastes good.
He took another bite and began to savor it.
A carrot disappeared from the world.
"What do you mean?" Yu Min didn't understand what Zou Kai was doing.
He rubbed it in the air and swayed it left and right.
Zou Kai was obviously much more patient with them, and his tone was much gentler. He said softly, "Give me one more...one more, and maybe I'll consider joining you."
A hint of tsundere blush appeared on his handsome face, which was quite cute.
There was limited space in his pocket, and he had no extra carrots. Yu Min was reluctant to take out his share of tomatoes, and said pretentiously:
"Of course there is, but you have to show us your sincerity in wanting to join the Linlin Base first, otherwise there's no point in discussing this."
With just a carrot, the situation was reversed in an instant.
Sun Cheng became the active party and could be said to have basically controlled Zou Kai.
"Okay, what else do you have besides carrots?"
As an excellent restaurant guide, Yu Min poked Sun Cheng's arm, indicating that he could continue to lead the way, and then introduced the restaurant's food to Zou Kai as they walked.
The others felt like they were listening to a fairy tale. For the first time, they learned that there was a chance to achieve food freedom in the end times.
Now even Sun Cheng's siblings and Wu Susu were thinking of joining the Linlin base.
This is the land of the gods! They can easily produce mature vegetables that have been nurtured by wood-type psychics for a long time.
Several people looked at each other tacitly. They all felt that the wood-type mutants in Linlin Base must be very strong, at least there must be second-level ones, and there are quite a lot of them, otherwise they would not be able to withstand such a consumption.
Zou Kai followed behind Sun Cheng, without any trace of his previous rebellious look. He behaved like a boy next door, and was unusually well-behaved.
At the foot of the mountain, torches stood in rows, wrapping up the many beauties who were about to be sent into the "fox's" mouth.
Most people hung their heads, waiting for death numbly, but some refused to give up, biting their lower lips and still trying their best to save themselves.
They are psychics with special powers, and by the time they realize something is wrong, it's already too late.
When Zhang Jun finished selecting people, he described the selection criteria and purpose in great detail, making them feel flattered.
The servants held up delicate little wine glasses and respectfully handed them to each chosen person, watching them drink it in one gulp.
Once this glass of wine is consumed, it will be fine for ordinary people, but people with special abilities will soon feel that their special abilities are rapidly dissipating, and no amount of control will help.
Several hours passed, and their abilities showed no signs of recovery.
Du Jiwei, a power-type mutant who claims to be the strongest female in the Dawn Base, has been concentrating all her strength on her hands that are tied with ropes. From the beginning of her struggle until now, her hands have been strangled and are painful, red and swollen.
She looked around helplessly, and there was a dead silence, as if she was ready to be slaughtered by an unknown force.
Do I really have to give up like this?
She moved her hand to the cuff of her shirt and confirmed that the small carving knife hidden inside was still there, and breathed a sigh of relief.
If there is a chance later, she will use this carving knife to give herself a chance to survive. If not... then she will kill herself quickly and efficiently and not die in humiliation.
The stench of corpses wafted from the top of the mountain, and a gloomy mist enveloped the entire mountain.
Before the end of the world, this mountain was famous for its rugged roads, and was known as "come here fully dressed and wash away all the worldly desires."
It means that the mountain road is difficult to climb, but if you persist in climbing the entire way, your whole body and mind will be purified.
The saying “come here dressed and washed away all the makeup” also applies to the present, but the meaning it contains is completely opposite.
