On the other side, Qianyue was on her way back.
Considering that today might be the last day she could go out and move around freely, she came out with a bag and a bucket to collect materials.
Because the trees had died, firewood was readily available, making it easy to collect. While felling the trees, Qianyue also found a few pieces of synthetic stone.
But on the other hand, the large amount of fruits falling and rotting from the trees made food collection, which was already difficult, even more difficult.
They encountered a few small animals on the road. Qianyue hesitated for a moment, but ultimately did not attack them. After all, eating wild animals is not allowed in Jinjiang.
Fortunately, she had mainly stockpiled food before, which should be enough to last until the end of this round of games.
The most urgent task is to find materials to make gas masks.
When Qianyue realized that someone was following her, she happened to find a fragment of a handicraft.
At first she thought it was a large predator and subconsciously took a defensive posture, but she heard footsteps the next second.
Qianyue: "...actually a player."
But why would there be players appearing in such a place at this time?
Qianyue felt something was not right, so she immediately packed up her things and went back.
It's just that she had walked quite far in order to collect materials. When she rushed back to the vicinity of the base, she happened to see a group of people peeking in front of her stone house!
This group of people wanted to move her house!
How could she be paralyzed for the next few days without a house?!
Qianyue threw the bucket to the ground without thinking, picked up the ice pick and threw it out!
"This house is built on a nice land, and it's well decorated..."
Du Yuanlang lifted the vines that covered the outside of the stone house and was about to step into the house when a strong wind suddenly blew from behind!
"Yuen Long, be careful!"
"Don't move!"
The two voices sounded almost at the same time. Du Yuanlang had no time to distinguish them and subconsciously wanted to hide, but at this moment, he suddenly felt something seemed to brush past his face and fly out!
"What the hell!"
“Swish!”
At the critical moment, Du Yue kicked forward, and the ice pick rolled in the air and finally fell a few steps away.
The moment it pierced into the ground, the tail end of the ice pick was even shaking, which showed how much force Qianyue had initially exerted!
Du Yuanlang was still in shock when Yu Lu, who was standing beside him, suddenly covered her mouth and exclaimed, "Your face!"
Face?
Du Yuanlang touched his face belatedly.
"Why are you yelling? Are you still a man? It's just a cut." Qianyue rolled her eyes and walked out of the woods.
Du Yuanlang hadn't recovered from his shock yet, and when he heard her words, he immediately got angry, "You're not a man!"
Qianyue looked at him as if he was mentally retarded, "I'm not one of those people."
Du Yuanlang: Damn!
It was rare to see Du Yuanlang suffer a setback outside, and neither Du Yue nor Yuan Dongqi said a word.
Instead, their gaze fell on Qianyue, and a hint of familiarity flashed in their eyes at the same time, but they couldn't remember why they had such a feeling.
The two of them just watched from the sidelines, but Yu Lu, who always played the role of an intimate person, couldn't just sit back and watch.
She immediately pulled Du Yuanlang aside, signaling him not to act rashly. Then she frowned at Qianyue and complained, "You're so unreasonable. Why did you act so indiscriminately?"
“…”
Qianyue felt something was wrong when she saw her frowning, and sure enough, she started talking in sweet words.
She rolled her eyes on the spot: "Sister, which eye of yours saw me being indiscriminate?"
"Besides..."
Qianyue calmly walked to the ice pick, pulled it out of the soil with a little effort, and swung it in a circle. The flying mud was thrown towards the people. Yu Lu subconsciously took two steps back.
Qianyue sneered and said disdainfully: "I'll hit you if I want to. Do I need a reason?"
!!!
Du Yuanlang's eyes widened immediately: "What did you say? Say it again if you dare!"
Qianyue: "You're so young, but your hearing isn't working well?"
How can I bear this!
Du Yuanlang was a powder keg that could explode at any time. He was about to roll up his sleeves and argue with Qianyue!
Unexpectedly, as soon as he took a step, someone grabbed his collar.
Du Yuanlang roared: "Let me go!"
Du Yue remained calm and let him go crazy. He turned to look at Qianyue and said, "Is this your house?"
Compared to Du Yuanlang and Yu Lu, Du Yue's attitude is much better, but after being in a high position for a long time, some things are difficult to change for a while - such as tone.
Qianyue was already unhappy, and upon hearing this, she retorted mercilessly: "Are you questioning me?"
Du Yue choked.
He was stunned for a moment before realizing that there was indeed something wrong with his tone.
"Feel sorry."
Yuan Dongqi, who was standing by, saw that the situation was not good and came out to smooth things over.
He smiled politely and said, "Sorry, we just happened to see a house here when we were going up the mountain. We were a little curious, so we came over to take a look."
"I can assure you! We haven't touched anything inside, not even gone in!"
Although Yuan Dongqi is usually nonchalant, he has a good-looking face, especially when he smiles, few people will dislike him.
But Qianyue is obviously an exception.
The latter glanced at him and suddenly changed the subject: "That was you in the woods just now, right?"
Yuan Dongqi was stunned.
He remembered that he quietly left as soon as the other party noticed him. Could he see that?
Qianyue scoffed, "You knew there were people living on the mountain, yet you still came all the way to take a look—do you think these are spirits of stone stacking for fun, or that dinosaurs can build houses?"
Yuan Dongqi: "..."
There's no way to respond to this.
They had indeed intentionally approached the mountain knowing that there were people there. Although Du Yuanlang was the only one causing trouble, their teammates were also implicated.
Yu Lu said aggrievedly: "You misunderstood, we didn't mean anything else, we just wanted to come over and say hello..."
Qianyue was most annoyed by this tone of voice, so she turned around and said, "Am I talking to you?"
Yu Lu: “I——”
Qianyue: "Didn't your parents teach you that entering someone's room without permission and interrupting other people's conversations are bad habits?"
Yu Lu: “…”
She immediately turned to look at Du Yue, tears almost streaming down her face. Yuan Dongqi, who was standing by, was secretly delighted when he heard this!
Good rebuttal!
He had long been fed up with Yu Lu's false gentleness.
The reason why the original Dongqi was called Dongqi was because his father had many sons and his family situation was extremely complicated.
He had seen everything over the years, so seeing a girl like Yu Lu acting so pretentiously made him frown. The only reason he had been able to endure it these past few days was because of Du Yue's face.
To be honest, someone of Yu Lu's caliber can only deceive naive kids like Du Yuanlang.
For a moment, Yuan Dongqi's favorability towards Qianyue soared, and he even forgot that the other party had just criticized him.
Yu Lu looked at Du Yue for help, and Qianyue also looked over.
At first glance, the man seemed familiar, but Qianyue couldn't remember who he was for a while, so she didn't bother to think about it anymore.
She raised her eyebrows and asked, "Are you her man?"
Yu Lu:!
Du Yue: “…”
He stared at the rough and tattered mask on Qianyue's face for a long time, as if trying to see her appearance clearly through the cloth.
After a while, Du Yue shook his head and replied, "No."
The light in Yu Lu's eyes dimmed instantly, and she even felt a burning pain on her face.
Killing someone and destroying their heart was more painful to her than Qianyue directly stabbing her with words.
Du Yue nodded slightly: "It is indeed wrong for us to trespass into a private house without permission. I apologize."
"What are you talking about? You haven't even entered yet..."
Du Yuanlang felt uncomfortable after being confronted. Just as he was about to yell, Du Yue glared back at him.
Looking back at Qianyue, she had returned to her half-smile look.
Du Yue had a headache: "Don't take the child's words to heart, we will leave now."
After saying this, he prepared to lead his men away without waiting for Qianyue's response. But unexpectedly, Qianyue added at this moment:
"It's best to keep these naughty kids at home and discipline them before letting them out, lest others get itchy hands on them."
The moment he finished speaking, Du Yuanlang suddenly became furious and swung his fist towards Qianyue!
"Who the hell are you talking to?"
"Du Yuanlang! Come back here!"
Du Yue shouted, but it was too late.
Du Yuanlang, who just turned sixteen this year, is the late-born son in the family. His youngest brothers and sisters are seven or eight years older than him.
Normally he was spoiled at home and became lawless. By the time his biological brother Du Yue came back, the once well-behaved little brother had turned into a little bully with a middle school syndrome.
——When facing this kind of little brat, Qianyue will never show mercy.
Effortlessly dodging the opponent's fist, Qianyue even kindly reminded him:
"left."
The next second, she kicked Du Yuanlang on the left calf, causing him to stagger.
Du Yuanlang groaned.
"Right hand."
The moment he finished speaking, someone suddenly pulled him hard on the back, and his right shoulder cracked. Du Yuanlang screamed "Ah"!
"Yuen Long!" Yu Lu was subconsciously worried, but was stopped by Du Yue.
At the same time, Qianyue reminded again: "Abdomen."
Du Yuanlang had not yet recovered from the shock of his dislocated arm, and subconsciously covered his stomach upon hearing this.
After waiting for a while, the attack didn't come. He looked up and saw the other party's eyes full of disgust.
"So weak."
Qianyue simply reached out and pushed him on the forehead, and without caring about the expressions of others, turned around and went back to the woods to get her own bucket.
If she hadn't considered that the other person's brother was still alive, she would have stepped on his head into the ground and let him taste what regret was.
Not only did the surprise attack fail, but he was also taught a lesson by the other party. Du Yuanlang stood there in a daze for a moment, staring at Qianyue's back, his hands clenched tightly.
Only then did Du Yue slowly walk to his side with his long legs, his arms folded across his chest.
"Has that been enough?"
Du Yuanlang pursed his lips and said nothing.
Du Yue said calmly, "She didn't intend to hurt you at all when she threw the weapon. You bumped into her because you moved around."
Du Yuanlang was stunned, and his face suddenly began to hurt again.
It was burned.
So he was reckless at first and misunderstood the other party as a provocation?
After all, he was his younger brother, so Du Yue decided to stop while he was ahead and threw a few more props into his arms.
Du Yuanlang hadn't forgotten that he was still in a cold war with him. Just as he was about to say that he didn't need charity, he heard his brother say:
"Go put the props at the door."
Du Yuanlang: “…”
When Qianyue threw the bucket, she did so in a hurry that many props were scattered. By the time she collected everything and went back, the group had already quietly left.
Glancing at the three neatly arranged props at the door, Qianyue couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
"If you're on the right track, it won't be in vain if I help teach other people's children."
