The two people not far away saw Chen Ruoruo coming out and turned to look over. Their eyes uncontrollably fell on Xia Xiaoying and the others, and on the pot hanging above the campfire. They swallowed unconsciously.
They seemed to know that Chen Ruoruo would not give them food anymore, and they couldn't snatch it away by force, nor could they bring themselves to ask for it, so they could only watch Xia Xiaoying and her group happily drink oatmeal porridge.
After drinking the oatmeal porridge, Chen Ruoruo rested for a while, and then went back to lie down in the cave. She really was not suitable for and did not like staying in places with too many people, and she was not very good at communicating with others. Even though she was already familiar with several people, she still felt more comfortable staying alone in the cave.
Later at noon and evening, Chen Ruoruo went out of the cave to bring food to Xia Xiaoying and the others. The reason why she did not give them a lot of food at once was because she was very careful.
The reason was, firstly, she didn't want Xia Xiaoying and the others to think that she had a lot of supplies, and secondly, she wanted to prevent others from coveting the supplies she gave them, and also to prevent them from being stingy and reluctant to eat them.
After dark, Chen Ruoruo called Erlangzi and the Wolf King into the cave, and blocked the entrance with the vault door.
Three or four days passed like this, and everyone lived in peace and stability. Even for Xia Xiaoying and Long Minnan, it was a peaceful life they had not experienced in a long time. There were no sudden attacks from mutant animals, nor entanglements from mutant plants. They did not have to be on guard all the time, guarding against mutant animals and plants that might suddenly attack from nowhere. They had to be prepared for battle at any time, and could not relax their vigilance even when sleeping.
Ever since they were rescued by Chen Ruoruo and brought to this mountain, they have not been attacked by any mutated animals or plants.
"Xiaoying, when will Captain Qi come back?"
"It should be soon..." Xia Xiaoying stood up and looked at the road Qi Jiang left at the foot of the mountain and said, it has been six or seven days, and he should be back in the next two days.
"If Captain Qi doesn't come back, I'm afraid they won't recognize us..." said a team member
"What do you mean?" Li Xue raised her head and looked at the team member curiously and asked. Xia Xiaoying also turned around and looked at her.
"I've been eating like this every day these days and I feel like I've gained weight..." The team member touched his face and said with a frown, looking conflicted and a little worried.
"Let me see... Let me see..." Upon hearing this, a team member sitting next to her turned her face over and stared at her carefully for a long time.
"Hmm... seems like I've gained weight... Hehehehe..." After a while, the team member nodded and said, then he laughed.
"Are you making fun of me? Don't laugh... Don't laugh..."
"Well... these past few days, I've had three meals a day and a full stomach, and there haven't been any attacks from mutant plants or animals. It feels like a dream..." Li Xue was also standing aside, looking at the bushes in the distance and said
"Yes, yes, I feel the same way... It feels like we've returned to life before the disaster."
"Yeah, if nothing else, we really look like we're out for a picnic in the mountains..."
"It's true... I feel like I'm almost full of food every day..."
"Just be content..."
"Okay, everyone, be alert..." Xia Xiaoying looked at the two people next to her, and then said to everyone.
Everyone fell silent. Not only the team members thought so, even Xia Xiaoying felt like she was dreaming these days.
However, they cannot let their guard down yet. As time goes by, they have to be even more vigilant. After all, the two companions next to them have also gone down the mountain. It is hard to say whether they will not covet the supplies in Chen Ruoruo's hands after seeing the food she has given them these days. Moreover, there is also the water in Chen Ruoruo's hands that can enhance superpowers. It is hard to say whether they will not set their sights on her.
So they must be more and more vigilant. If their people arrive before Team Qi, then they will have to rely on them to protect Chen Ruoruo and deal with these people.
Compared with the comfortable life of Xia Xiaoying and others, Long Minnan and Bai Lusong have had a hard time these days. Not only are they unable to eat enough, but even drinking water is difficult.
In the past few days, the edible young branches of mutant plants on the mountain have been almost eaten by them, and this was because Bai Lushong almost used his supernatural powers to attack Xia Xiaoxue and the others.
So later on, Long Minnan and the others couldn't ask them for water. They could only collect the dew gathered on the vines in a kettle and drink it simply.
After being herbivores for several days in a row, Long Minnan and Bai Lusong's faces were almost turning the color of grass. They felt bitter in their hearts and had lost their sense of taste.
Bai Lushong no longer had the temper he had at the beginning. He just numbly stuffed young branches into his mouth every day to relieve his hunger.
There were no mutant animals on the mountain except for those mutant plants, and they did not dare to go down the mountain rashly. After all, the situation at the foot of the mountain was unclear, and the situation around the mountain was even more unpredictable. So they could only wait on the mountain, chewing those bitter branches, and make more plans when Cheng Xinghua came back.
In the following days, Chen Ruoruo basically stayed in the cave all the time except for three meals a day when she brought out food for Xia Xiaoying and the others.
Chen Ruoruo only let Erlangzi and the Wolf King out for a while, and then brought them back to the cave. Every night, Chen Ruoruo would block the entrance of the cave with the vault door.
In the past few days, she has been feeling more and more uneasy, always feeling that something is going to happen. During this period, she also reminded Xia Xiaoying and others, but she did not say it too directly.
The accident happened in the middle of the night when Chen Ruoruo was sleeping. Erlangzi and the Wolf King seemed to have sensed something and suddenly growled anxiously. Erlangzi even went directly into the RV and bit her to wake her up.
"Erlangzi, what's wrong?" Chen Ruoruo opened her eyes in a daze and saw Erlangzi pacing anxiously in front of the bed. Outside the RV, the Wolf King and several other wolves were also growling continuously. She quickly got up and walked out of the RV. She saw the Wolf King and several other wolves standing vigilantly at the entrance of the cave.
Chen Ruoruo breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the vault door at the cave entrance was not opened, and then she stretched her consciousness out.
Then they saw that the man who had gone down the mountain before had returned at some point, but he was not alone. He had brought nearly twenty more people up the mountain, and was now facing off with Xia Xiaoying and her group.
