Chapter 374: Your oxygen mask is fake
Wherever Xie's mother went, he followed. The little boy had no doubts and got into the car behind Xie Chunyan.
In addition to the two of them, there were also some things that Xiang Yu had exchanged from those stalls before, as well as some food that had not been exchanged yet.
Xie Chunyan and the little boy looked at the food and felt extremely hungry. They swallowed their saliva but did not reach out to touch the food.
Xiang Yu pedaled the tricycle until he left the inner city area and found a place where there were no survivors, then he stopped the vehicle.
Xie Chunyan pulled the little boy out of the car cautiously. Seeing the confusion in her heart, Xiang Yu spoke up in time.
"Don't be afraid. I won't do anything to you two. I just want to know something."
If she really wanted to do something, she would have done it several years ago.
Seeing the calm look of the little boy, she was really curious and wanted to know what specific symptoms he had experienced in the past few years after his genes changed.
It seems that the magical liquid was researched from them.
At first, Xie Chunyan was not afraid, but now Xiang Yu brought them to this deserted place, it would be a lie to say that she was not afraid.
Although she was kind-hearted and naive in the past, after experiencing these years, she was really afraid. What she was most afraid of was the human heart.
She has met some good people in the past few years, but as long as their interests are involved, those people will betray her without hesitation.
Apparently, comforting her didn't work, and Xiang Yu didn't care what she was thinking. However, looking at her alert face, it was obvious that these past few years had not been easy for her.
"I really mean no harm. You want to exchange food, right? These are all the food I have left in my car. Why don't you pick some for yourself?"
Xiang Yu took all the food off the car and placed two bags of food on the ground.
There were only some sweet potatoes in it. Xie Chunyan and the little boy immediately stepped forward and picked out a few larger sweet potatoes and a dozen smaller ones.
In the past, they would often exchange with people in the shelter, so they knew how much food these white flowers could be exchanged for.
Carefully placing the white flowers on the truck bed, the two men put the sweet potatoes into a basket and covered it with a black cloth.
Only after she found out that Xiang Yu really had no ill intentions did Xie Chunyan feel completely relieved.
The little boy was not very old now, and he knew why Xie Chunyan was alert, but he could feel that although Xiang Yu's eyes were always on him, they were different from what he had felt before.
He reached out and held Xie Chunyan's hand, trying to comfort her, "Mother Xie, this sister won't kill us."
Several people sat down next to the tricycle. Xie Chunyan immediately opened her backpack, lit the oil lamp, placed a palm-sized iron pot on top, and then took out half a bottle of slightly turbid water.
Use a dagger to cut the sweet potatoes into small pieces and put them into the small iron pot to cook.
The two of them hadn't eaten for two days, and Xiang Yu watched her actions without paying any attention.
The sweet potatoes produced by Space are very juicy and have a sweet aroma.
Soon the air was filled with the sweet aroma of boiled sweet potatoes. Xie Chunyan's stomach began to growl. The little boy took out two bowls and filled one for him and one for Xie Chunyan.
The little boy had already understood long ago that Xie Chunyan was not his real mother at all, but Xie Chunyan had been taking him from place to place and taking care of him over the past few years, and in his heart he had long regarded this fat woman as his real mother.
After the little boy ate half of the sweet potato, he poured the remaining half into Xie Chunyan's bowl.
"Thank you, mom. Please eat. I'm full," the little boy was very sensible.
Xiang Yu watched from the side, and when the two had almost finished eating, she asked directly, "How many meters can you see clearly in the thick fog?"
She did not ask Xie Chunyan, but asked the little boy directly.
The little boy looked up at Xie Chunyan, then answered honestly, "About 100 meters, I can't see clearly further."
"Your oxygen mask is fake," Xiang Yu said with certainty. She had just observed that the oxygen cylinder on the little boy had broken long ago, but he still kept the oxygen mask on his face, probably just for disguise.
Xie Chunyan's expression suddenly became tense. She did not tell Xiang Yu about this news, if Xiang Yu had seen all this information with his own eyes.
This woman's eyes are really vicious.
As the natural disasters have gradually evolved over the past few years, she has gradually discovered that the little boy around her is different from ordinary people. If these secrets were to be revealed, more people would probably target them.
After all these years together, she had already regarded the little boy as her own child, and she would not allow anyone to take the little boy away from her.
The little boy felt Xie Chunyan's nervousness and leaned towards her.
