"Are these raised by humans? Are you kidding?" After hearing Cheng Xinghua's words, Bai Lusong pointed at a few animals not far away and asked in surprise.
"..." Cheng Xinghua looked at Bai Lusong helplessly and remained silent.
"It's already this late, and you're still teasing..." Long Minnan slapped Bai Lusong on the head.
"I'm used to it..." Bai Lusong touched his head innocently.
"Where are the people?" Long Minnan glanced around and only saw tables and lounge chairs not far away. He didn't see anyone else except them and a few official troops nearby.
"She went into the cave..." Cheng Xinghua said.
While the two were talking, another person picked up the water cup next to him, poured water from the kettle, and drank it himself.
"Cough cough cough, why does this water smell like disinfectant..." Bai Lusong drank too quickly, and the taste of the water prevented him from reacting in time. Some of the water went directly into his nasal cavity, choking him badly, and his whole face immediately turned red.
"Why are you drinking water?" Cheng Xinghua snatched the cup from Bai Lusong's hand and said anxiously.
"Can't they drink? I see they are all drinking..." Bai Lusong wiped the water from the corner of his mouth and said with an innocent look, pointing at Qi Jiang and others next to him.
"Did that person give this to you?" Long Minnan asked
"Hmm..." Cheng Xinghua nodded and frowned as he looked at Bai Lushong standing beside him. He didn't keep an eye on this guy and he got into trouble.
"It should be fine. This is the smell of water disinfectant tablets..." Long Minnan looked at Qi Jiang and the others beside him and saw that there was nothing unusual after drinking, so he smelled the water in the cup.
“…” Cheng Xinghua finally felt relieved.
Chen Ruoruo had lived alone for a long time and was not used to having so many people around her. After delivering the water, she went into the cave and stayed there. Erlangzi and the Wolf King were guarding the door, so she was not afraid of them breaking in.
Of course, she was always paying attention to the situation of the group of people outside. If they didn't know what was good for them and attacked a few of them, she would come out and kill them immediately that day.
The reason she rescued them at that time was because she did not detect any malicious intentions in them, and besides the three men, all the people in the group were members of the official army.
They must have come to these places to carry out missions. Since they encountered danger under her nose, she would definitely help, but saving those three people was just a matter of convenience.
However, Chen Ruoruo still couldn't understand why the mutant plants at the foot of the mountain attacked them. They didn't actively attack the mutant plants. Everything happened in an instant, as if the vines suddenly went crazy.
This was really beyond her expectations. She had been training herself to perceive the movements of mutant plants, and she could be said to have mastered the method very well. However, she was unable to react in time this time.
She had always lived in peace with the mutant plants on the mountain. The mutant plants on her mountain seemed to be very gentle and had never attacked anyone.
Even Erlangzi and the Wolf King had never been attacked. The vines at the entrance of her cave were all very gentle. Although they were all highly aggressive mutant plant species, they had never attacked her.
Or perhaps, because these people had intruded into the territory of these mutant plants, they suddenly attacked them. But wasn't she also on the top of the mountain? There was nothing wrong with walking around, and now that these people were on the mountain, they didn't see the surrounding vines attack again.
Or maybe they wanted to protect something in the mountain, so they strangled everything around the foot of the mountain that might pose a threat to the mountain. Those vines must be poisonous, so this group of people were unconscious for such a long time. If they hadn't been rescued by her, they would have died without a doubt.
But what could be on this mountain that could protect the mutant plants? Suddenly, Chen Ruoruo's eyes lit up, and she immediately used her consciousness to check the entire mountain, inside and out, but to her surprise, she found nothing.
Aside from her, Erlangzi, a few of the wolf king's companions, and the dozen or so people outside the cave, and the fact that there were more mutant plants growing more lushly on the mountain, there was nothing else special. She sighed, thinking perhaps she couldn't see what the mutant plants considered treasures, so she finally gave up.
Chen Ruoruo did not dwell on the things she couldn't understand, but after a moment she withdrew her thoughts and saw that everyone outside had almost rested. She took out some bread and compressed biscuits from the space and prepared to give them to the people outside. Of course, she didn't take out too much, just enough for them to eat.
Qi Jiang, Long Minnan and the others outside were already starving, but they could only try their best to endure it, because most of their belongings were left behind when they were trapped by the vines.
Now they were surrounded by a circle of mutant wolves, and they couldn't go out to find food, let alone roast these big guys in front of them. Even if they wanted to, they didn't have the ability to do so. They didn't want to have their necks bitten off by their sharp teeth.
Moreover, Long Minnan looked at the group of people sitting quietly on the side with curiosity. He felt that they were unusually calm and quiet. They just sat there quietly waiting. Such behavior was normal considering their status. It was nothing in the eyes of Long Minnan and other ordinary people. After all, people in the official army have always been strictly disciplined.
But the behavior of this group of people in front of him was too abnormal. They clearly had a mission to complete, and they should be very anxious being trapped here.
Or at least they would go and negotiate with the people who rescued them, or discuss with the team members how to leave here as soon as possible. But now they were all sitting very quietly, which made Long Minnan feel that things were inexplicably weird and he couldn't understand it.
"Brother Nan, Brother Nan..." While Long Minnan was thinking, Bai Lusong on the side pulled his arm unnoticeably, and his voice was unusually low. His eyes kept paying attention to the group of people on the right, for fear that others would notice his abnormality. Even at the beginning, Long Minnan did not notice his little movement.
"..." Long Minnan finally noticed Bai Lusong's little movement beside him, and turned around to see the latter's indescribable expression as if he was constipated.
"Water..." Bai Lusong frowned and said nothing, but handed the cup full of water to him and motioned him to drink.
"Xiaobai..." Cheng Xinghua stopped him and reached out to take the cup from Bai Lushong's hand. Although he saw that Bai Lushong and the people around him were fine after drinking, he was still worried.
