The boat can still carry some weight, so Ling Liang can organize everyone to carry some of the lighter items back. He was planning silently in his mind.
Since the captain had spoken, Lian Li had no choice but to shut up.
However, just as she took the bowl handed to her by her eldest brother, Xiao Ba struggled hard to break free from Wen Xi's arms and pounced on her again.
There was a loud bang, and the bowl fell to the ground and broke into pieces again.
Lian Li blinked, then realized what was happening and burst into tears, "Wu... Don't bully me like this! I'm going to fight this beast!"
After Lian Li finished speaking, she grabbed the kitchen knife on the stove and chased after Xiao Ba.
Xiao Ba cried and hid in He Tingyan's arms.
Wen Xi was a little amused and helpless.
Are you disgusted with yourself for being a weakling?
Lian Li chased after him, and seeing He Tingyan's cold face, looking like he was protecting his child, she stopped abruptly.
She didn't dare ask He Tingyan to hand over Xiao Ba, but she couldn't swallow the anger in her heart. She turned to Wen Xi and said fiercely, "This beast is yours, right? Everyone saw it with their own eyes. It attacked me twice in a row and you still protected it. In this case, as its owner, you must apologize to me!"
"If it's really Xiaoba's fault, I will naturally apologize to you."
"Of course it's its fault. Everyone saw it. Are you still going to deny it?"
"Lian Li, you are several years older than me, and you are a meteorological expert. You have been included in the national talent program at such a young age. Can't you calm down a little?" Wen Xi glanced at her indifferently.
"You know I'm a powerful person, but you still allowed that beast to hurt me!"
"Xiao Ba came with me when we set out. Has it touched even a hair of yours these days?"
"This..." Lian Li frowned.
"No, right? With Xiao Ba's skills, he would have succeeded in dealing with you long ago."
“…”
"Don't you find it strange that I'm suddenly targeting you today?"
"I didn't provoke it, so don't even think about getting a rake!"
"Since you didn't provoke it, isn't it even more strange that it behaved this way to you alone among so many people here?"
As if to agree with Wen Xi's words, Xiao Ba, who was curled up in He Tingyan's arms, kept crying.
Seeing Lian Li calm down a bit, Wen Xi took Xiao Ba into his arms, rubbed its little head and said, "What's wrong, little thing? Why are you so naughty today?"
Xiao Ba pointed his chubby paws at the soup on the ground and kept screaming.
At the same time, Xiaohua seemed to react suddenly. She hurriedly leaned over to smell the soup on the ground, and then her face changed instantly.
"Paint flower!"
"Lacquer flower? What is that?" Wen Xi asked puzzledly.
"Is it a plant that looks like forget-me-not, extremely poisonous? If you accidentally ingest even a little bit, you'll die within an hour without an antidote."
Before Xiaohua could explain, Zhuang Yidao, who had been working silently, said.
"Yes, that's right. How did you know?"
Now it was Xiaohua's turn to be surprised.
After all, this thing is not common in the world, and even fewer people can recognize it.
After Zhuang Yi and He Tingyan exchanged a quick glance, they raised the soup spoon in front of everyone. In the half spoonful of brown thick soup, a black flower bud suddenly appeared in everyone's sight.
Lao Ya relied on drugs to keep his men under control, and after research, it was found that one-third of the ingredients in the drug was this lacquer flower. If they had not secretly studied it long ago, they would not have known about this evil thing.
He didn't answer Xiaohua, but threw the spoon to the ground. His face turned grim and he said, "This poisonous flower isn't found inland. It can only be found sporadically on the southern islands. If it weren't for Xiaoba's cleverness today, I'm afraid none of us would have been able to return."
