Chapter 94 A Few Things About Singing
"Xiao Hei, it's dangerous at night. I'll guard the first half of the night, and you guard the second half, okay?"
Xiao Bin discussed with Xiao Hei in a low voice.
"Will you nod if you agree?"
Xiao Hei: “…”
Is that all?
What did you think...
Xiao Hei nodded speechlessly, then went straight into Mibao's tent.
…
…
The next few days passed with Xiao Bin chopping trees and Mibao feeding the small animals.
Because the axe was too slow to chop down trees, Mibao gritted his teeth and spent his points to buy an electric saw and a solar charger.
After spending all this money, I only have a little over 200 points left.
It's really a stretch.
[…Well, plants and animals have also evolved and begun to have intelligence, so they should also meet the system's judgment of attractive organisms. How about, Mibao, try singing to these animals?]
Xiaonian looked through the entire system guidelines and then suggested.
There is really no other way!
You can't let Mibao go and fight the zombies head-on, right?
Isn't that just delivering food to the zombies?
"Okay!" Mibao nodded, then looked at the small animals eating on the ground and took a deep breath. "Don't look at me as just a sheep~ Sheep are incredibly smart~"
After singing just two lines, the little animals froze collectively.
Then they all looked up at her and ran away.
Without the slightest hesitation.
Mibao: “…”
Xiaonian: [……]
This is a bit embarrassing.
[No, don’t you have any idea of your singing skills?]
Xiao Hei, who was standing nearby, was basking in the sun while making merciless laughs.
[Your brother, too, has his sister filter turned on too strongly, right? He’s brainwashed himself, but others haven’t brainwashed him, hahaha~]
Mibao: “…………”
Little New Year: […………]
It really hurts my heart.
[Stop laughing and think of a solution.]
Xiaonian was speechless.
[There are only a little over 200 points left. No matter how much you save, it will only last for a little over half a month. By then, she'll starve to death, and you won't be any better!]
Xiao Hei: “…”
I can't laugh anymore.
Damn, all you do is threaten it every day!
Xiao Hei's face was dark, but he was still very unhappy and paid the price again - using the beast-controlling energy he had saved.
[Really... I've only saved up this little bit of energy these past few days, and I'm giving it all to you!]
Xiao Hei forced the animals that had run away back to his home while yelling unhappily.
[Why am I so unlucky to have met you? I’m so unlucky…]
Mi Bao felt a little guilty after hearing this: "I'm sorry..."
[Stop nagging! If it weren't for Mibao, you'd still be sealed!]
Xiaonian will not get involved in internal conflicts, and will start cursing if he is dissatisfied.
[Have you forgotten who was there, begging Mibao to release you? Besides, if you hadn't done so many evil things back then, would you have been sealed away?]
Xiao Hei: “…”
[Ahem, heroes don't dwell on the past, let's move on.]
【hehe.】
Xiaonian rolled his eyes.
After a while, the animals that had run away came back, and then Mibao took a deep breath again and tried to sing in tune: "Don't look at me as just a sheep~ Sheep are incredibly smart~"
This time the little animals didn't run away.
Mibao finally sang the song completely.
"How's it going, brother? Did you collect any energy?"
Mibao's face was full of anticipation.
[Hmm…yes.]
Mibao smiled.
【But only two points were captured. 】
Mibao: “…”
[Oh my god, I'm really at a loss, right?]
Xiao Hei couldn't help but started yelling again.
"Why..." Mi Bao looked frustrated, "Is it because I sang so badly?"
【this……】
I have to say, the truth about Mibao is revealed.
Because of system detection, although these little animals did not run away, they had no interest in Mibao singing.
There were only two little animals who were not disgusted by the "noise" made by Meebo and liked Meebo very much.
"But why can the zombies get points just by gathering together?" Mibao tilted his head slightly, looking puzzled.
Before Xiaonian could give the answer, Xiaohei beside him couldn't wait to speak.
[Nonsense, zombies love human flesh, not singing. They love a person. Even if you're a million miles off-key, they'll still love you.]
Mibao: “…”
So the points plan came to a standstill again.
When Xiao Bin came back from working hard... no, after chopping down the trees, he saw Mi Bao sitting on a makeshift bench made of a tree trunk and sighing.
"Miss, what's wrong with you?"
Xiao Bin hurried forward and asked with concern.
Mibao: “…”
Mibao: "Alas——"
She is only five and a half years old and will be six in a few months. It is really difficult for such a little girl to shoulder the responsibility of the entire family.
Not only do you have to earn money (points), but you also have to play games of mistress and housekeeper with the adults. It's so difficult!
[Alright, alright, stop sighing. It's no big deal. The Beast Taming System isn't like your brother's system, which is focused on short-term gains. We're focused on long-term gains, understand?]
Mibao shook his head honestly: "I don't quite understand."
[To put it simply, the animals' loyalty to you is cumulative. They may not like you very much now, but the more and longer you feed them, the more they will like you!
Think about it, by the end of the process, they will all really like you, and even if your singing is terrible, they will have their own filters.]
[…Just explain if you want, don’t drag me down.]
[Oh, that's not important, that's what I mean.]
Mibao didn't understand what he was saying, but he seemed to understand a little: "Oh, you mean, I should continue feeding them so that when they like me very much, I can sing for them to earn points?"
[right!]
[Tsk, the abacus beads are clacking.]
[This is called mutual benefit!]
[Sorry, points are tight right now, so I don't have any extra to invest—how about you give some energy to Mibao first, and then invest first?]
Xiao Hei: [……]
He said that because he didn't want to release energy!
After all the talk, things came to a standstill again.
Mi Bao felt that this was not a solution, so while having dinner at night, she looked at Xiao Bin.
"Uncle Xiao, I have a question."
Xiao Bin quickly stopped eating noodles and said, "Go ahead."
"I...I want the zombies to hear me singing, but I don't want to get close to them. What should I do?"
Xiao Bin thought for a moment and said, "You can just record your singing and play it for them, just like when singers release songs and albums, many stores will play their songs."
He finally understood that the eldest lady had a dream of becoming a singer!
But unfortunately, it’s the end of the world and there are not many people around, so only the zombies can hear it.
Um……
Fortunately, it’s the apocalypse, and the zombies can’t comment except for making hoots. If anyone heard this, the young lady would definitely be scolded to death!
