Chapter 79 The Unlucky Guy
"Your fire is quite strong." You Hao was surprised. It was much stronger than the wind just now.
"The one I used just now was a mid-level energy source, and now I'm using a high-level one with fire attributes. Which one do you think is better?" It would have been fine if he hadn't mentioned it, but it hurt even more when he did, because this was his wife Ben.
"Brother, there is a promising future." You Hao patted his shoulder.
"Then you'll grab a few less pieces when you pry the floorboards."
"That won't work. Whoever grabs it gets it." Little Xie Yu has a sharp eye. He rarely misses something he likes. If he doesn't want to have a share of it, is he stupid?
"Tsk~" Xie Yu said this in public. Naturally, he had no intention of keeping it all to himself. Not to mention that these were his future network of contacts, just based on their daily care, he couldn't selfishly take it for himself.
The people from the Talisman Making Society hardly moved, and the desert giant lizards were killed by the people from the Talisman Making Society without leaving a single piece of armor. They cleared the battlefield before dark, and their efficiency was so fast that Huang Shanshan even suspected that the giant lizards their family encountered during the mission were fake. However, the hidden strength of the Talisman Making Society had just surfaced at this moment.
Guys like You Hao, who deliberately delayed graduation, had been lurking in the Talisman Making Society for years, so they must have hidden a lot of good stuff. Xie Yu rubbed his chin, one idea after another flashing through his mind, wondering which unlucky guy he was going to target.
Many years later, whenever a few unlucky guys with a certain status get together for dinner, they can't help but recall their student days. They feel sad when they think about it. NND, at the beginning they really didn't want to graduate, but later they wanted to graduate, but they were delayed and couldn't graduate, and they worked for others for many years in vain.
As people age, they inevitably shed a few sentimental tears. So, they went in with a smile and left with red eyes, causing the new brothers to be worried. Now, they just felt a chill.
"Xie Yu, can you turn off your electric fan?" Electric fan?
Xie Yu raised an eyebrow. "Youyou, this is my new invention. Choose a name, Little Cyclone or Tornado?"
"Tornado, tornado is so powerful!"
"I'll listen to you, Senior Tengchong. Remember? Tornado." Tengchong pursed his lips. "Electric fan!" Xie Yu glanced at him and said with a fake smile, "It seems you want to clean up this garbage manually."
Tengchong glanced at the collapsed executive hall and immediately changed his words, "Tornado."
"Stop making trouble. Learn what it means to be a man of current affairs."
"Sure, but you have to listen to me first, I—"
"Haha, work, work!" He said that he didn't have to do anything today.
Xie Yu switched to a high-level, attributeless energy source and blew away the collapsed debris. As she'd said, the floor was bright and shiny, without a single scratch, looking like it was newly laid. The Fabrication Club members swarmed over to pry the floorboards apart, and those from the Talisman Making Club, who had nothing else to do, also went to help.
Everyone worked together and finally finished prying the floor off before dark.
The entrance to the storage room was in the center of the hall, a prominent spot. After entering, they discovered that, with the exception of a few extremely weak female desert monitors, all the others had fled. Unwilling to exterminate them all, they gave up their pursuit and simply cleaned out the storage room, using it as a temporary camp.
After a busy day, the Manufacturing Club had contributed the most. Everyone was exhausted and lay undignified on the fur blankets. After a while, they rose to rest. Xie Yu and his team had some passion fruit-made power pills, and they took the opportunity to trade them for a lot of treasures with the other members of the club. He was a master at taking advantage of the situation.
As for the consequence of doing this, he would naturally be beaten up. As Yun Xiang's fiancée, she was also one of the participants in this incident. She could not stay out of it for both moral and logical reasons, so she donated the high-quality nutritious ingredient, Rosa rugosa, which she had collected, and barely got through.
The Tengchong group was rather rough, so they simply ate the fruit of the mountain thorn rose, not caring about its other uses. Lin Ziyu exclaimed, "It's a waste of natural resources!" After eating, everyone felt a little hungry and started taking food from their spacecraft. They usually prepared some cooked food before going on a mission, like eggs, steamed buns, roast chicken, cake, etc. It was always better than tasteless nutrition.
Seeing the simple dinner, Lin Ziyu generously offered them some leftover grilled fish and some roasted hazel grouse from the campsite dinner. Yun Xiang loved wild fruit, and Xie Yu had collected plenty during their separation, including hairy cherries, apricots, and kudzu. Apricots were the most abundant, having just arrived in season.
Maomei doesn't fully ripen until July, which is still another two weeks away. Currently, only the ones in Chaoyang are ripe. Hairy cherries ripen later than the others, with only a few ripening here and there, and most of them have already been picked by Xie Yu. There's no other way. If I don't pick them now, I'll have to wait until the mission is over and the month is up, and I won't be able to eat them anymore.
Everyone looked at Yun Xiang eagerly, especially the girls in the Talisman Making Society. Most of them liked fruits. Yun Xiang didn't like to eat them alone, so she gave her some apricots and kept the rest.
The girls had no objections; as long as there was something to eat, it was fine. But they were still a little envious of Yun Xiang, who had such a charming fiancé. Xie Yu slammed the girls down, then belittled the rest of the manufacturing club to the Pacific Ocean, looking so proud that he walked with a swagger.
But soon, he was slapped in the face by his unrelated brother-in-law.
Yun Yunyang brought a bag of fruit and placed it in front of Yun Xiang. "Two—Yun Xiang, you eat some fruit. Here are oranges and mangosteens—"
"He won't eat!" Xie Yu said with a dark face, stopping Yun Yunyang from taking out the fruit. Yun Xiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She really couldn't handle this kind of naive and foolish person. At this moment, she actually hoped that Yun Ting would come quickly and take this guy away.
"How do you know she doesn't eat?" Yun Yunyang looked at Yun Xiang unconvinced.
Yun Xiang hurriedly shook her head. She really didn't want to eat.
Xie Yu shrugged, "Take your things back."
Everyone, unaware of the truth, had a look of mirthful delight on their faces. How many years had it been since they'd seen two men fighting over one woman? Five? Ten? Fifteen? You couldn't count any further, or you'd be back in kindergarten or before you were born. They were perfectly content to have a piece of Xie Yu's melon. But then again, this young boy actually fought with Xie Yu for it—remarkable courage! The brothers admired him!
"No, who are you? Why do you care about her business?" Yun Yunyang frowned and glared at Xie Yu.
Awesome! Everyone gave Yun Yunyang a thumbs up.
"I'm his fiancé, do you think I should care?"
"Impossible!" Yun Yunyang retorted angrily. How could his family not know about this? He didn't even consider that his family treated her as if she didn't exist, so why would they pay any special attention to her?
"Then how should I explain it so that you will believe it?" Xie Yu was calm and composed. He was relatively tolerant towards children. Otherwise, with his temper, he would have scolded him so much that he wouldn't even recognize his mother, and he would have given him a chance to get close to Yun Xiang.
"I--" Yun Yunyang simply thought that this kind of thing should be reported to the family, rather than--a typical child's idea.
