Chapter 167 Meow
In front of the simple porridge shop, all kinds of exclamations came one after another.
"Wow, this is so delicious!"
"There are so many seafoods, many of which I have never seen before. I was worried that they would taste weird, but when I ate them, I found that they were delicious!"
"This big piece is the meat of the king crab, right? It's so full, soft and has a delicate texture. It's delicious when eaten with the porridge."
"The porridge itself is so delicious. I can drink ten bowls of porridge without eating seafood!"
"Have you tasted the crab roe? That taste is truly irresistible..."
The person who was speaking excitedly was Mu Dongsheng.
He had never eaten this before. It was only after Boss Jian introduced it to him that he realized that the small golden sand-like particles were crab roe. He was lucky, because in addition to various large pieces of seafood, the bowl of seafood porridge also contained a lot of crab roe.
After being simmered over a long slow fire, the crab roe almost melted into the porridge, but it still had some granularity, and a hint of golden oil floated on the oily and delicate surface of the porridge.
Put it into your mouth together with the soft and glutinous porridge. The moment you put it in your mouth, the rich aroma of crab roe is completely released. When you gently crush the small particles with your teeth, the thick oil feeling instantly gushes out, which is extremely delicious. Under the gentle wrapping of the white porridge base, it will not make people feel greasy, but just pure fragrance...
After finishing a bowl, there is still crab golden oil swirling at the bottom of the bowl.
Unfortunately, each person can only buy one bowl.
There is only a little bit in a bowl and it is gone in the blink of an eye. It is not enough at all.
Mu Dongsheng couldn't help himself and licked the bottom of the bowl clean. Finally, he raised his head reluctantly and looked left and right.
Seeing that there was still a little crab meat in Wang Li's bowl, Mu Dongsheng's eyes shone brightly;
Seeing some shrimp shells left at the bottom of the green bowl, Mu Dongsheng opened his mouth slightly with salivating eyes;
Seeing Murong Miao licking the scallop shell with relish, Mu Dongsheng's saliva gushed out again like a flood...
"Well, if you can't finish it, I can help you." Mu Dongsheng, with a beautiful face that was out of this world, began to rub his hands.
Everyone from Team 11: “…”
Everyone knows Sima Zhao's intention!
Seeing Mu Dongsheng approaching to take advantage of them, everyone held their porridge tightly and took a step back: "Don't even think about it!"
Only Yi Cun Qing was kind-hearted. After looking around and confirming that no one was willing to share with Mu Dongsheng, he reluctantly put the last prawn in his bowl into Mu Dongsheng's bowl: "Alas, who made me a nice person?"
Mu Dongsheng's eyes lit up as he held the prawn in his hands: "Chew, chew, chew...how can this prawn be so fresh...chew, chew, chew...so crispy! Chew, chew, chew!"
Mu Dongsheng finished a large shrimp quickly, but he still felt unsatisfied, so he began to look at the green snake on Yi Cun Qing's wrist with a blatant look:
"Master Qing, do you think that if this green snake is thrown into the bowl and dipped in the remaining seafood porridge juice, will it taste just as good?"
Yi Cun Qing and Qing Snake were both startled instantly, and they fled in panic using their hands and feet: "Don't come over here!!!!"
Murong Miao: "Haha, I've been displeased with that snake for a long time. I support Team Mu."
"No, Captain Mu," Wang Li advised earnestly, "That snake eats some weird food every day, it must not taste good..."
The bonfire of Team 11 was in chaos. Some were catching snakes, some were running away, some were watching the fun, some were trying to stop the fight, and everyone was making a lot of noise. In the end, Mu Dongsheng ran to Boss Jian's porridge bucket, knelt down, hugged Boss Jian's thigh, and began to beg him for another bowl of porridge:
"Boss Jian, I've been waiting for you in the snow for a whole day and night. Please..."
Jian Yunlan was wearing an apron and was busy serving porridge to other diners. Suddenly, she received such a big gift from Mu Dongsheng. She felt a little uncomfortable: "Guest, please don't do this, guest!"
Taotie was angry: "Awooo woof woof woof!"
Others: “HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!”
There was a smile on everyone's face.
That’s great, really.
"It would be nice if time could stop at this moment forever." Murong Miao wiped the tears from his eyes, "If I can go back safely this time, I want to live a good life with everyone..."
As expected of the flower of the 11th team, she set a death flag while chatting and laughing.
The air suddenly became quiet.
Everyone: “…”
Please stop talking, aunt!
I don’t know if it was in response to the flag Murong Miao had just set, but the temperature in the Death Desert, which had just started to warm up, suddenly turned cold.
…Blood-red clouds gathered in the sky, and an inexplicable rumbling sound could be faintly heard coming from afar, like thunder, or an incomprehensible whimpering sound coming from the throat of some ancient creature.
A cold wind blew in from somewhere, carrying with it a smell of decay, and suddenly blew out the lamp hanging above the simple porridge bed.
Looking at the light, Jian Yunlan was suddenly stunned.
This lamp can actually be blown out by the wind? !
No one spoke, including Mu Dongsheng. Several top mercenaries present instantly put down their bowls, frowned, tensed their muscles, and entered a state of high tension.
The big dog Taotie, who was originally dozing off, stood up and walked in front of Jian Yunlan. His golden eyes turned slightly colder and his tail circled around Jian Yunlan in a protective gesture.
The porridge shop, which was bustling not long ago, was suddenly shrouded in a depressing atmosphere as if a storm was about to come.
Suddenly, there was a faint vibration from the ground.
The vibration was very weak at first, but soon became increasingly violent. The entire surface seemed to have turned into a thin shell, and underneath the shell, some horrible existence was about to break out of the ground.
Just when everyone was holding their breath as if they were facing a formidable enemy——
Suddenly, a shape appeared on the snow right in front of the simple porridge shop.
The crowd standing nearby immediately scattered and stared at the snow. The shape grew larger and clearer, and finally, under everyone's nervous gaze, the thing revealed its true appearance:
A huge skeleton.
The skeleton was as tall as a two-story building, with a hunched back and green flames in its two empty eyes. There was some rotten flesh attached to the skeleton's arms and spine. Flies were flying around and a breath of death was coming from it.
"Chuck, chuck, hehe." The skeleton staggered and let out a teeth-grinding laugh.
This skeleton blocked out the sun and its weird and twisted shape made people feel deeply frightened.
"Class A pollutants, the dead in the desert, the degree of skeletonization is very high."
...However, when they saw the shape of the skeleton clearly, all the people present, who were facing a great enemy, breathed a sigh of relief.
The big dog Taotie, who originally seemed a little nervous, drooped his eyelids lazily again, yawned, and lay down again.
When Jian Yunlan saw Taotie's reaction, he probably realized that it was not a big deal. He glanced at the huge skeleton indifferently and continued to serve porridge to the diners calmly.
——What? It’s just a small pollutant. Do you want to disturb our boss Jian from selling porridge?
Several senior mercenaries twitched their lips and picked up the bowls of porridge they had just put down. "It's just a Desert Dead. I thought it was something big... It scared me."
Even Li Zhou and others who were secretly peeping from behind a snow hill not far away, could not help but gnashing their teeth in dismay when they saw this scene: "Damn it, I thought they were finally going to die, but in the end they are just dead in the desert."
A new mercenary in the crowd asked quietly, "Why do you all seem relieved? But this skeleton looks terrifying, and it's also A-level..."
The more experienced mercenary casually explained: "It is indeed A-level, but don't you see what kind of people we have here?"
Desert dead are a common type of Class A pollutant in the death desert. Among common pollutants, they are the highest level.
If an ordinary mercenary team encountered this pollutant, they would probably struggle for a while, but there were eleven teams of mercenaries present, and Mu Dongsheng was also there.
In the eyes of these people, Class A pollutants are just appetizers and are far inferior to any Class S pollutants.
Just now everyone was on high alert, worried that an S-level pollutant would come out again like what happened last time when Mu Dongsheng was in danger - then everyone present would be dead.
Looking at the Desert Dead showing off their might before their eyes, the mercenaries all looked towards Mu Dongsheng.
Yi Cun Qing even cupped his hands and said, "Captain Mu, I leave it to you."
The members of the 11th team: "We haven't practiced for a long time, Captain Mu, please show us your skills."
Mu Dongsheng: "...you bunch of lazy bastards."
After that, he put down the bowl, stood up, pulled up his hood, and walked to the huge skeleton.
Compared with the huge and strange alien skeleton that blocked out the sky, Mu Dongsheng's figure wrapped in a cloak was so thin that he looked like he could be blown down by a gust of wind. He was so thin that he was insignificant.
However, facing Mu Dongsheng, the Dead in the Desert showed a look of fear.
I don't know how a face filled with polluted bones could show such a vivid expression of fear.
But the poor dead in the desert did indeed tremble all over. The hunched Queen Cang took a half step back, and the entire ground began to shake.
The other mercenaries have returned to their previous state, some drinking porridge, some chatting and laughing, no one thought there would be any accidents... It's just an A-level pollutant, they have the strongest mercenary in the world, they can solve it with a snap of their fingers, what accidents could there be? It’s better to drink porridge.
Even Mu Dongsheng himself thought so.
Mu Dongsheng had a dull expression, his eyebrows were lowered, and there was even a hint of a smile on his face.
A ball of light gathered in his right hand, but just as he was about to raise his hand, the smile on his face froze.
The smile froze for a moment, then expanded instantly, but the arc of the expansion seemed a little weird no matter how you looked at it——
Accompanied by a creepy cracking sound, a huge and indescribable shadow rose from the left half of Mu Dongsheng's face.
The shadow gradually grew bone spurs and flesh in mid-air, and yellow-green viscous liquid continued to flow down, slowly, slowly condensing into a shape in the air.
Everyone froze in place for a moment, looking up in disbelief.
What comes into view is...
A grinning mouth.
