As Su Luo spoke, Xiao Yi immediately understood and stepped forward, beeping, "Hello, I am Xiao Yi, the master's smart butler. You can ask me any questions you may have."
Then Su Luo glanced at the people behind her, then at the two who were speechless with shock, their pupils dilated, yawned, and turned to walk towards her bedroom.
"You guys get to know each other."
"The accommodation is next to the cabin."
I'm tired.
With a click, the door closed, completely cutting off Su Luo's voice.
Hua Ge, Yao Mengyu stared blankly at Su Luo's disappearing figure, then nervously looked at the group of ghosts in the room. For a moment, the atmosphere was awkward, and she didn't know what to say.
After a long while, Brother Hua mustered up his courage, looked at the strange creature that looked most like a human, and waved to it in a seemingly friendly manner, "Big Brother, hello there!"
"Big pot?" Upon hearing this, Hua Pi turned his head in a sinister manner and even stood up without warning, startling Brother Hua into retreating hastily. Just as Brother Hua thought he had said something wrong and was about to be beaten, Hua Pi looked down at his own clothes and fell into self-doubt.
"Do I look old? How can someone call me 'big brother'? I'm clearly a teenager!"
"No wonder the boss doesn't like it, is there something wrong with my taste?"
Hua Ge: ...
Is he really alright?
"Don't worry, that's just how he is. He'll be fine on his own in a bit." The most meddlesome foodie stepped forward and hugged Brother Hua like a brother, which looked very heartwarming. But if only that gaping maw wasn't on his navel, Brother Hua felt that the monster's mouth in front of him was opening and closing, and it would swallow him whole if he wasn't careful.
"Not bad, not bad, water-based ability, I like it." Gong Xi Fa Cai swayed the tree canopy and approached Yao Mengyu, wrapping his wrist with branches around hers, seemingly very affectionate.
"Alright, alright, be polite, don't scare people!" Zhao Cai stretched out his four hands, two pairs of which retreated, weaving between the two people and four ghosts.
The scene is eerie yet somehow harmonious.
It wasn't until half an hour later that Hua Ge and Yao Mengyu finally recognized the several mysterious figures.
'Plop plop.'
The gourmet brought out a hot pot that the group had prepared separately, and they cooked it with the leftover food from the ghost warehouse that night. The ghosts didn't mind; they ate it every day and were used to it.
But when Hua Ge and Yao Mengyu saw the beef rolls, luncheon meat, quail eggs, fresh duck intestines, and pork belly in the pot, they were moved to tears.
Although it has only been about two months since the apocalypse, it feels like two years have passed. These foods that were once common are now rare and as precious as gold.
Forcing himself to swallow hard, Brother Hua pointed to the contents of the pot and tentatively asked, "My esteemed masters, do you charge for these things?"
"money?"
The food critic stared wide-eyed at him, as if he wanted to have a word with Brother Hua.
"Free meals and accommodation, do you understand the value of those four words?"
Hua Ge and Yao Mengyu exchanged a surprised glance, then looked at the contents of the pot, their hands trembling with excitement.
"You mean, all of these things are given to us for free?"
"Yes, yes, they're all free, but that's not all... there should be other things, like karaoke, private cinemas, and hot springs..."
As Hua Ge and Yao Mengyu listened to these familiar yet unfamiliar words, they began to wonder if they were about to die, or if they had just had a beautiful dream, and a dream that felt quite real.
"Here you go, I just grabbed this from the cafeteria. Yogurt and hot pot are a perfect match!"
As Zhao Cai spoke, it used its nimble hands to slip a bottle to Hua Ge and Yao Mengyu, "By the way, don't give Brainy Master any alcohol, I don't want to just eat brains!"
Seeing that Brother Brain was already approaching the wine bottle, Zhao Cai was so frightened that he hurriedly took the rice wine away.
Listening to the familiar squabbling of the strange creatures, and also learning about the layout of the hut, Hua Ge and Yao Mengyu had never felt so wise before, telling them where they could and couldn't go.
"Oh, by the way, those guys just ran off with Sister Su's things. Should we chase after them?"
Upon hearing Yao Mengyu's timid question, the several strange creatures stopped what they were doing, looked at each other, and smiled knowingly.
"Chase?"
"With their abilities, it's not our place to make a move."
"Besides, all they took was a pile of trash. Trash is nothing. Why should they be chased?"
...
"Haha, we're rich! We're rich! Why bother going to the provincial capital? We can just find a place to hide and sell our stuff for some ghost money!"
Fang Ming led the group and ran for their lives, glancing back every now and then. When he noticed that the other side wasn't chasing them, he looked even more relaxed.
"Huff, huff."
"I worried for nothing, but nothing came of it."
"Maybe he's just a lucky guy. This place is in a remote location, and he just barely escaped." Another boy in the group chimed in.
"Huff, huff, wait a minute, don't you guys feel the stuff in your backpacks getting heavier and heavier?"
One of the girls was so tired that her legs were trembling. She was too exhausted to move, so she found a stone stool to sit down and gasped for breath.
"It seems... there is a little bit." Hearing the girl's words, the people walking ahead also stopped to feel it, and indeed it felt much heavier than when they left the hut.
"It could be psychological? Or it could just be that you're tired."
"So much nonsense, just take it down and see for yourself." Fang Ming did as he said, taking off his backpack and unzipping it. He was shocked by what he saw.
