Chapter 88: I Know Them
Looking at the pile of mushrooms in front of them, the three examiners looked at Xu Xinxin and their expressions all changed.
They originally thought that this person just had a higher affinity for animals and would be more likely to pass the test, but they didn't expect that her existence could affect the tests of others?
However, since the official time for the assessment has not yet arrived, the examiners remained silent.
When several candidates nearby saw this, they immediately said, "How about roasting mushrooms? There are ready-made branches here. We can roast them over a fire."
"I just happened to have some barbecue powder with me. I can sprinkle it on the grilled mushrooms."
"I brought a pot, it would be nice to cook some mushroom soup..."
Everyone contributed something and soon the fire was lit.
Xu Xinxin specially collected the mushroom roots, washed all the remaining mushrooms, cooked a small half of them into soup, and grilled the rest.
When the mushroom soup was cooked, Xu Xinxin specially served three bowls and sent them to the examiner.
"Brothers and sisters, it's not time for the test yet, so come and have some soup and grilled mushrooms."
The delicious aroma of the mushroom soup, coupled with the barbecue sauce freshly sprinkled on the grilled mushrooms next to it, made the three examiners swallow their saliva.
"You must be Xu Xinxin, we have heard of you before."
"That's right. After meeting you today, I didn't expect that you are more capable than the rumors say."
"Put these soups here and hurry up and do something else. The formal assessment will begin after midnight, so take advantage of the time you have to rest."
Each of the three examiners said something, and the three bowls of mushroom soup and a plate of freshly roasted mushrooms were kept.
Everyone enjoyed the meal very much.
After eating and drinking, it was only 8 o'clock in the evening, and there were still four hours before the early morning.
I have to hurry up and go to bed.
The group of people washed the dishes casually, then crowded into the examiner's safe house, put on some clothes at random, and leaned against the wall to rest.
Xu Xinxin also yawned loudly, took out a sleeping bag, snuggled up with the little orange cat, and gradually fell asleep.
I have to say, her ability to adapt is really good.
The last time she came to the wilderness, it took her a long time to fall asleep at night.
Today in the wilderness, there were more people crowded in the house, but she fell asleep quickly and even snored slightly.
Xu Xinxin was sleeping soundly and even dreamed that she was eating a buffet.
A whole table of delicious food was placed in front of her. She just picked up a favorite dessert and was about to eat it when she suddenly heard a scream.
"Why is the safe house gone?!"
"Did you hear any noise?"
"Little girl, wake up quickly, the examiners are gone!"
Xu Xinxin was woken up by someone.
She rubbed her eyes with her hands and sat up, and saw this group of people in a panic, as if there was something particularly terrifying in front of them.
"What's wrong?"
Xu Xinxin also suddenly woke up, holding the little orange cat in her hands, and climbed up.
A young lady standing next to her couldn't help but lean over to her, swallowed her saliva, and said, "Wolf, listen, there seems to be a wolf howling ahead."
Wolf?
When she came here before, there were no wolves nearby.
Xu Xinxin quickly held her breath and pricked up her ears to listen to the sounds in the nearby woods.
“Huh…rustling…”
“Ouch~”
Sure enough, amid the sound of the breeze and the swaying of branches, there was a hint of a miniature wolf's howl.
It turns out there are really wolves here.
Xu Xinxin suddenly became nervous.
"Meow?"
Just as Xu Xinxin was holding the little orange cat nervously, the little orange cat moved its ears and called out to her in confusion.
"Isn't this the voice of Little Dog Brother?"
What little dog brother?
When Xu Xinxin heard the little orange cat's voice, she looked at it in confusion, and then quickly reacted.
By the way, little dog, oh no, it’s the big silver dogs, aren’t they nearby?
Xu Xinxin's eyes lit up.
"Woo~"
Soon, the barking of dogs that was just far away slowly got closer and closer.
The candidates taking the test became even more nervous. They even gathered together holding wooden sticks.
Even the examiners who were hiding nearby and observing became a little nervous when they heard the voice.
"Wolf, why are there wolves here?"
"Should we go over and protect them?"
"No hurry," the middle-aged woman in the lead said after hearing the voices of the two young men next to her, "This is not the howling of wolves, it should be a pack of evolved dogs. Let's wait and see."
The middle-aged woman in the lead had spoken, and the two young people next to her stopped talking.
But at this moment they all couldn't help but feel puzzled.
Even if they are evolved dogs, there is no reason for them to run here so late at night.
Could it be that they were roasting mushrooms here before and attracted them here?
Just when everyone was puzzled, a huge wolfdog rushed over from the woods next to them with a "woop".
It jumped high in the air and pounced directly towards the candidates who were huddled together.
The middle-aged woman who had just said to wait a moment was the first one to wait no longer. She held a grass seed in her right hand and was about to rush over.
"etc!"
At this moment, among a group of candidates who were so scared that they fell to the ground and covered their heads with their hands, a girl actually stood up.
As the voice sounded, everyone saw that the girl actually took a step forward and reached out to hug the big wolfdog.
The middle-aged woman who was about to take action, grabbed the grass seeds in her right hand and stood back silently.
It was obvious that this girl knew this big wolfdog and the pack of dogs behind it.
"Meow!"
The big wolfdog ran up to Xu Xinxin and was about to lick her hand with its tongue. The little orange cat next to it saw it and screamed nervously.
The examinees nearby who didn't know the truth thought that the big wolf dog was going to bite her hand, and their hearts were in their throats.
There was also an old man who was quite brave. He just held the wooden stick in his hand and hit the big wolf dog on the head with trembling hands.
"Ouch..."
The big wolf dog immediately raised its head, stared at the old man with its eyes, and made a "woooo" sound with its mouth.
The old man was so scared that he immediately dropped his stick and shrank back into the crowd, saying, "Get out of here, get out of here, get out of here!"
Seeing that everyone was really scared, Xu Xinxin squatted down, hugged the big wolf dog's head with her hands, and shouted: "Don't be afraid, I know this group of dogs!"
Xu Xinxin's voice successfully calmed down everyone who was lying.
Xu Xinxin was afraid that everyone would not believe him, so he touched the big wolf dog's head and said loudly: "I came to the wilderness some time ago, met this group of dogs, and became friends with them."
