Chapter 257



Bai Li's proposal was very exciting. After the old turtle described the feeling of that special energy infused into his body, everyone agreed without hesitation and asked Bai Li to give them a shot on the way.

Bai Li was already familiar with the task of infusing people with the refreshing energy of plants and trees. He raised his hand lightly, and after a few seconds it was ready.

Four people: “???” So fast?

But seeing how relaxed Bai Li was, they all shut their mouths without knowing what was happening.

Soon, the group arrived at the place where several elderly people gathered. There was a huge naturally formed rock with a flat and smooth surface, only about half a meter higher than the ground. Standing on it, one could overlook everything around.

Not only did he successfully communicate with his grandson, but his grandson was also very helpful in finding him a granddaughter-in-law that he was very satisfied with. Grandpa Wen Xiao's mood at this time can only be described as smug.

Seeing Bai Li looking around curiously, he couldn't help but say proudly: "I was the first to discover this place. Who would have thought that there was a 'gate' leading to other places at the corner of a hillside! Those rabbits are so timid. They have lived nearby for so long, how could they not have discovered this place and not even explored it... But it's good this way, this place belongs to us, haha!"

Bai Li nodded in agreement with Wen Xiao's words. Grandpa Wen was really lucky. According to his observation, this place was indeed like a secret place. If they walked here accidentally, they seemed to be brought to another secret space. Otherwise, if so many of them passed through the hole at the foot of the hillside, they should have walked to the other side of the hillside.

Moreover, this place is not underground. The surrounding light is bright and you can see the warm sun in the sky when you look up. It is obviously impossible to be under the hillside, but the environment is also obviously different from the surrounding scenery before coming in.

In response to this, Bai Li said that it was very obvious. As for the secret realm, he had been to several of them in the fairyland, and none of them was safer than the one they were in now.

"By the way, little fox, didn't you just tell us that you came back to 'Star Hope' to experiment with farming by humans themselves? How about this place? It's big and spacious enough. Can we use this as the first test point?" Lu Ying asked with a smile.

She could see that Bai Li was satisfied with this place. Although they used this place as a venue for private gatherings, she believed that if Bai Li wanted, none of these old guys would refuse.

"Yes, yes, yes, if you like, I'll leave this place to you!" Wen Xiao said loudly, "You don't have to worry about us, we are going to transform from beast form back to human form, and then we will definitely leave from 'Star of Hope'. Apart from anything else, the farming game you mentioned before is called 'Leisure Farming', right? We have to go in and play it anyway!"

Bai Li smiled and accepted it frankly: "If you are willing, that would be great. I was just worrying about how to bring it up with you." Unexpectedly, Grandma Lu took the initiative to help him without even having to mention it.

Since he had joined a few people for the gathering, Bai Li was not willing to let everyone just drink the nutrient solution dry, so he exchanged glances with Wen Xingyao and began to take out the food they had prepared long ago from their respective storage devices.

Considering that the people they were going to meet on "Star of Hope" this time were all beast-type, Bai Li and Wen Xingyao deliberately made the food "big". Every piece of food they took out was put in a special large bowl, with a pile of braised pork like a small mountain, tender and juicy big chicken legs that fell off the bone at a bite, sweet and sour spareribs covered with sauce and sprinkled with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, scallion oil noodles stacked in small bowls, one-bite fried meatballs, golden fried potato cakes that "crunched" when you took a bite... and a bucket of passion fruit lemonade to relieve the greasiness.

Finally, the two of them carried out a bucket of steaming white rice that was bigger than the lemonade. That was it!

To sum up, there is more meat and fewer vegetables, but there is no shortage of staple food and drinks.

As early as the two of them were "clanging" to get food out, the other five people retreated to the side. This was a habit they developed in their early years. Although food made from natural ingredients is more nutritious and better for the body, they can't stand the taste. When they heard Bai Li and Wen Xingyao say that they would treat them to a good meal, the first thought that came to the minds of the old kids was: run away!

Escape far away, escape... no need to be forced to eat those disgusting foods.

Hmm? What smells so good? They retreated to the side of the big rock, but the few people with a keen sense of smell looked in the direction of Bai Li and Wen Xingyao.

That charming fragrance is like a demon that lures people into the abyss, or like a being with countless tentacles. Once it touches an intelligent creature, it will entangle with it seductively, making people dizzy and their mind wander.

So, the five old men who had already hidden beside the big rock, squinted their eyes, looked fascinated, and moved their bodies unconsciously. When they came to their senses, they were already standing beside the dozen large bowls of food.

They watched Bai Li and Wen Xingyao's actions and started talking loudly. Of course, the content of their conversation was only heard by Bai Li, besides themselves.

"Do you smell it? It's so fragrant! If I'm not mistaken, this fragrance comes from the things that the little fox and Lao Wen and his grandson took out?"

"I smell it, I smell it. I have never smelled anything so good in my life! I don't know if you can feel it, but my mouth is constantly drooling. While I'm talking to you, I almost can't hold it back. Slurp!"

"Is this the taste of food from outside? I didn't expect that after living here for so many years, the outside world has developed into this... Humph! Those unfilial descendants, they obviously had such delicious food but didn't bring it to us to eat. Instead, they only let us drink nutrient solution, and even said that the nutrient solution was the latest flavor and it was not easy to get it. Ugh!"

"Calm down, your guess may not be correct. Don't you see who the little fox is? He has had a great adventure. Maybe only he can come up with such delicious food! Oh, it should be meat. Just by smelling it, I know that the taste of meat must be good. The most important thing is that they don't have that meaty smell!"

"Luckily we didn't take out the nutrient solution to give to the two little guys, otherwise we would be so embarrassed... Little fox, grandma is so hungry now, can we have dinner now? Hey, old turtle, why are you so quiet today? This is not like you. Old Ke talks more than you!"

Old turtle Jiang Hong: “…………”

While being tempted by the large amount of food in front of him, he suddenly recalled that Bai Li and Wen Xingyao had said that they would take him back to the hotel to have a good meal first. It was he who thought it was troublesome to go back and forth, so he suggested coming here directly, but now... his old heart was filled with regret, and he even had a somewhat "dark" idea.

If he had known that the little foxes had brought out such a delicacy, he should have secretly eaten a meal of it without telling anyone else!

He is slow, so he may not be able to grab more than the others...

I feel like crying a little bit.

Bai Li and Wen Xingyao calculated the food intake of several people and did not take out all the food that had been prepared in the storage device. In fact, they prepared a lot before coming here, and they could not finish it if they took it all out.

When asked if it was time to eat, and faced with five pairs of burning eyes, Bai Li signaled them to be patient, and took out five small automatic feeding robots newly developed by the Imperial Research Institute. As long as the program is set up, they can automatically feed all kinds of food into their target mouths.

These little robots were not bought by Bai Li himself, but were given to him by the two old deans who felt sorry for him during their stay at his house. They gave him not just one or two robots, but more than ten or twenty robots.

At that time, Bai Li doubted that no one would buy such a small robot after it was developed. Now he realizes that he was too narrow-minded. He believed that "existence is reasonable" for everything. Didn't he see that in the 21st century when he had been there, there were still people using remote control toys as cat toys?

After listening to Bai Li's introduction on how to use the small robot, Wen Xiao happily wagged his tail and almost flapped his wings: "This is great, this robot is well designed, it directly helps us solve the problem of not eating elegantly. I was worried that we would even overturn the bowls when we started fighting over it, hahaha!"

The old turtle also breathed a sigh of relief. If he concentrated on eating, his speed should not be much slower than others.

But will things really develop as smoothly as they imagined... The elderly people who tasted the exquisite food for the first time went crazy for it.

"Fuck! Lao Wen, eat slower. The robot is so small. Isn't it a bit too much to ask it to pick up ten chicken legs at once? Can't you see that it can hardly walk?"

"Tsk, you don't understand this. The robot is produced by the Imperial Research Institute after all, so the quality is guaranteed. Let alone ten of them, even if I asked it to bring me a whole pot, it wouldn't fall apart."

"Huh, is this my main point?...Eat slowly and leave a few for me!"

"Oh my god, Lao Ke, you have no moral principles. Not only did you let the little robot help you grab the meatballs, but you also went up there yourself? Those scallion oil noodles... they're called scallion oil noodles, right? How could you get close enough to inhale them? You could take a whole bowl of them in one gulp. Who can stand that?"

"It's delicious, come and eat it too."

"Oh, come on, I'm really scared of you, leave a few bowls for me!"

"Yingying, the fried potato cakes and sweet and sour pork ribs are delicious, go and eat them!"

"Thank you, thank you. I was just planning to try it. I think it will be even more delicious when paired with white rice. Jin Tao, you should try it too! And that drink, passion fruit lemonade, is also very refreshing and delicious. It's a little sour, but it's not a big problem!"

"Okay, I'll go pour you a glass right away!"

Bai Li and Wen Xingyao had eaten some nutrient solution on the way to find someone, so they wanted to take this opportunity to fill their stomachs. However, as they raised their chopsticks, they noticed the five elders' rebellious looks, as if to say, "You guys should eat a lot, right? Or leave this meal to us and don't eat it?"

Wow, this is such a delicious dish that I want to lick the plate clean after finishing it!
