Chapter 147 Meow meow meow meow
Wang Tao and Wang Rong drank five bowls of porridge each. Their stomachs were so full that they could not drink any more, so they stopped.
Both of them had flushed faces, with expressions of extreme happiness and satisfaction on their faces.
"Does the porridge suit your taste?" Jian Yunlan asked knowingly with a smile.
The brother and sister gave a thumbs up: "It's not just to our taste, this porridge is simply perfect! Not only the porridge, but also the environment..."
The two looked around.
Although it is separated by only a curtain, this warm little world, whether it is the lucky cat on the stage, the crackling charcoal stove, or the glowing small lanterns, gives people an incomparable sense of security everywhere.
The snowy wind and dangers outside the curtain seemed like things from another world.
Not to mention the sweet and delicious rock sugar and pear tea, and the unforgettable mushroom and chicken porridge...
Not only that, both of them had several large pears in their pockets, which were given by the waiter named "Niutou".
They each drank five bowls of porridge, and each bowl of porridge cost only three credit points. This meant that all this, in the middle of the Death Desert, only cost thirty credit points!
Not to mention in the Death Desert, even in the black market of the Eastern Base, these thirty credit points are barely enough to buy a pancake and a bowl of porridge.
And, what is even more shocking is——
"Brother, is your crystal core also..." Wang Tao looked at Wang Rong cautiously.
The unique tacit understanding between the brother and sister meant that Wang Tao didn't need to say the second half of the sentence, and Wang Rong naturally understood what she meant.
Wang Rong nodded imperceptibly.
Both of them had shock in their eyes.
They were immersed in the delicious hot porridge and hadn't noticed it yet. After finishing five bowls of porridge, they patted their round bellies and finally reacted.
——After traveling for most of the day in the desert while concealing their breath, their energy crystal cores were almost dried up and could not gather any power. However, as the heat brought by those large bowls of porridge flowed through their internal organs, their energy crystal cores were actually repaired bit by bit.
They had only seen food that could repair supernatural crystal cores in textbooks, and this was the first time they had encountered it in real life.
What a magical porridge shop this is!
These thirty credit points are totally worth it!
Not only did they find a safe place to rest in the desert, with hot tea and delicious hot porridge, but they also had a boss who had top-notch cooking skills, great service attitude, and a pleasing appearance to chat with them.
"But..." Wang Tao rolled her eyes and looked at the big dog dozing off next to Jian Yunlan in the corner. She was puzzled. "Boss, what does this dog of yours do?"
This small mobile porridge shop on a tricycle is just as its name suggests. Although it is simple, it has everything and every design detail has its purpose.
The only thing that Wang Tao and Wang Rong didn’t understand was the big dog.
The big silver-white dog was indeed majestic, with a few strands of beautiful blue-red in its hair, like flames. It was even bigger than an ordinary wolf, and it was probably taller than a human when standing up. It had a body full of tendons, which was -
Ever since they entered the store, the big dog has been lying lazily beside the owner, looking very cold and aloof, not even looking at the customers.
Normally, shouldn’t the dogs in this kind of shop be enthusiastic and have a perfect service attitude?
Not long ago, Wang Tao and Wang Rong tried to reach out to tease the dog - faced with such a majestic and furry dog, no one could resist the urge to pet it.
But the dog just rolled its eyes at them, turned around arrogantly, and fell asleep... fell asleep...
Both the brother and sister were extremely embarrassed.
It seems that other people's dogs are not the kind of dogs that are enthusiastic about receiving guests.
But this made them even more curious. In the end times where supplies are scarce, it would take a lot of food resources to raise a dog like this. What is the purpose of raising a dog in a porridge shop in the desert?
Jian Yunlan casually explained: "Maomao is an employee of our Jiandan Porridge Shop. He is——"
I haven't said this line for a long time. Suddenly saying it again now feels like a long time no see.
However, before Jian Yunlan could finish the second half of his sentence, a faint roar suddenly came from not far away.
The cold wind blew by, bringing a strange chill.
The three people behind the curtain fell silent instantly.
As mid-level mercenaries, Wang Rong and Wang Tao subconsciously held their breath and instinctively began to hide their presence.
The roar was accompanied by the shaking of the ground. It was not like a simple earthquake, because it was accompanied by low roars and howls like those from some giant monster. They could almost smell the blood on their noses...
Having been through so much battles for so long, the brother and sister of course realized what was happening at the first moment.
——Alien species are attacking!
Wang Rong and Wang Tao looked at each other in bewilderment:
"This kind of pressure must come from a B-level or higher, or even an A-level alien, right? Judging from the distance, it should be within a hundred meters!"
The palms of both of them were sweaty.
They couldn't defeat an alien species of such a high level, not to mention that their weapons were lost and their props were destroyed. Even if they made full preparations, they still couldn't defeat it!
but……
They both raised their eyes and secretly looked at the porridge shop owner, their eyes full of anticipation.
The boss dares to open a porridge shop in the middle of this death desert. He must have a trump card that can deal with this level of alien attack, right?
Sure enough, the next second, Jian Yunlan nodded to the two of them, revealing the calm expression of a reliable adult:
"Don't worry, my two guests. Our porridge shop has a corresponding response strategy for this kind of emergency."
Wang Rong and Wang Tao were about to breathe a sigh of relief, but the next second, they saw Jian Yunlan touching the big silver dog's head and pointing outside: "Maomao, it's time to go to work."
Taotie: “?”
Wang Rong and Wang Tao: “???”
The big dog showed an impatient expression as if his sweet dream had been disturbed. He stood up slowly and shook his head, looking like he had not woken up yet.
“…”
Wang Rong and Wang Tao's hearts suddenly rose to their throats -
No, that's not the case, boss. The 'crisis response strategy' you mentioned means letting such an ordinary dog go out to fight alien species?!
Suddenly, the two felt a gust of air rushing towards them.
The curtains were blown to the sides by the air currents, and the scene outside instantly came into view:
I don't know when it started snowing outside, and a thick layer of snow had accumulated on the ground. In the midst of ice and snow, a gigantic spider stood outside a simple porridge shop, its eight legs covered with densely packed hideous human faces!
Wang Tao and Wang Rong suddenly developed trypophobia and got goose bumps all over their bodies.
——A-level alien species, human-faced spider!
The spider was extremely huge, as tall as a three-story building. Compared with such a huge spider, the tiny tricycle looks as small as a drop of water. With such a big spider, it’s no wonder that other species don’t dare to approach the tricycle. Only it is brave enough to come up and try its luck.
At this moment, the spider came very close, and was looking at the small tricycle with its pus-oozing yellow-green compound eyes, as if considering where to start...
"Help, help, help..." Wang Rong and Wang Tao were shaking like sieves, sticking together, and couldn't even speak complete sentences.
However, in the blink of an eye, the next second.
"Maomao, charge!!!"
The big dog instantly turned into a silver-white lightning, so fast that it was almost invisible, and rushed out like an arrow!
There was still sleepiness and disdain in the big dog's eyes. He yawned lazily: "How dare you disturb my sleep..."
Wang Rong and Wang Tao’s eyes widened instantly.
The spider is so big, and the dog just rushed out like that. I'm afraid it's not even big enough to fill the dog's teeth, right? ?
But just three seconds later, they completely gave up the idea.
If the feeling that the huge human-faced spider gives people is fear.
Then, when they saw the huge, indescribable beast with golden pupils, the terrifying figure that blocked out the sky, the bloody mouth, and the blazing blue-red flames that seemed to come from the underworld, their mood was completely... numb.
Because they were too shocked, the brother and sister couldn't even utter a word and just stared blankly at everything in front of them.
…watching helplessly as the majestic silver-white dog transformed into a giant, it let out a loud “woop” and opened its mouth wide, and then—
The huge human-faced spider was swallowed by the bloody mouth.
Not even a hair was left!
"Chew, chew, chew." The ancient ferocious beast chewed expressionlessly for two seconds and then made a "Pooh" sound.
The whole earth was shaking in the beast's rage. The rumbling sound seemed to come from underground, with gravel and rocks rolling.
"Disgusting!" the beast said angrily, "What a horrible place this is. The food is so disgusting. Human, you have to make me a full banquet as compensation—"
“…”
Everything happened so fast that when it was over, Wang Rong and Wang Tao were still a little unresponsive.
Wang Rong pinched his face again in a daze:
“Ouch, it hurts, it hurts—”
This time, it wasn’t a dream either…
The two of them stared blankly outside the curtain.
Not long ago, the huge human-faced spider that appeared without knowing its own limitations disappeared without a trace, as if it had never appeared.
The horrible creature that swallowed the human-faced spider was now lazily lying next to the porridge shop owner, combing its hair slowly, with an expression that said "keep away from strangers"...
The young and handsome porridge shop owner added another handful of charcoal to the stove with a normal expression, as if everything that happened was not worth mentioning.
"Big, big boss!"
Wang Tao and Wang Rong knelt down in front of Jian Yunlan with a plop, trembling!
Half an hour later.
Fully armed and with their crystal cores restored to their best condition, Wang Rong and Wang Tao opened the curtain and walked out of the simple porridge shop, looking back every few steps. They couldn't help but confirm again:
"Boss, can you really give us this compass? Is it okay?"
"It's okay, just take it. Consider it a gift for your porridge. Thank you for liking my porridge." Jian Yunlan said with a smile.
Anyway, he didn't need a compass to determine the direction.
In the short term, Jian Yunlan probably won't go back to the Oriental Base.
Wang Rong and Wang Tao then nodded cautiously.
At this moment, in the eyes of the brother and sister, the entire Jiandan Porridge Shop tricycle, including Jian Yunlan, was shrouded in holy light.
This is not just an ordinary roadside stall, it is a holy place for restoring health and prolonging life!
"Boss, when we return to the base, we will definitely recommend your place to our relatives and friends!"
The brother and sister patted their chests and said.
They who are wandering outside don’t know yet that in the Eastern Base, the "Simple Porridge Shop" has long been famous.
Wang Rong and Wang Tao trudged forward in the snow, one step deep and one step shallow. But this time, both of them were in renewed spirits.
...A dark shadow was behind the distant sand dunes, quietly looking at the two people until they walked away.
