Chapter 71 Ferocious Beast!
Seeing the little guy's pitiful appearance, Meng Qingyin couldn't bear to let it go hungry forever.
She gave the last few strips of meat to the little guy, then asked Little Elf to pull over, and then got out of the car with the pot to cook noodles for him.
You can keep picking at these noodles without making a sound!
In less than two hours, she had scooped noodles twice, and her arms were starting to ache.
But seeing how much the little one was enjoying his food, she felt that all the hard work was worth it.
The little guy slurped up the noodles and then fell asleep again in no time.
Meng Qingyin poked its chubby little face, but it didn't react at all.
Meng Qingyin couldn't help but worry. The little guy did nothing but eat and sleep. Could something be wrong?
She put the little one on the bed and sat on the edge of it with a worried look on her face.
Just then, a notification popped up in the management group.
[White Fox: How strange, so very strange.]
[Pheasant: Is Brother White Fox pretending to be profound again?]
[White Fox: ...I'll pluck all your feathers!]
[Pheasant: I was wrong! Brother White Fox, what do you find strange?]
[White Fox: Enforcer No. 666, her divine beast egg is strange. I just realized that what hatched doesn't seem to be a divine beast...]
[Pheasant: What else could hatch from a mythical beast egg but a mythical beast? A chick, perhaps?]
[Hyena: That thing is definitely not a divine beast. Judging from its appearance and appetite, it's more like... the ferocious beast Taotie.]
[Pheasant: How could a mythical beast egg hatch into a ferocious beast?]
[Azure Wolf: I don't know where things went wrong, but the divine beast egg hatched into a ferocious beast. I think I should report this unexpected situation to the main system.]
[White Fox: No need, Azure Wolf. I just reviewed the replay and already know where the problem lies. The divine beast egg had cracked before, and a drop of 666's blood accidentally fell in, was absorbed by the egg, and that's how the ferocious beast Taotie hatched.]
[Pheasant: Then why is it called Taotie?]
[White Fox: Maybe it's because it's greedy; it sucked away that drop of blood.]
Seeing this, Meng Qingyin finally figured out the little guy's identity.
It turns out it was actually the ferocious beast Taotie?
She rubbed the little guy's fluffy head and then went to the driver's seat.
In one afternoon, she only found two supply boxes, and upon opening them, she obtained: 2 pieces of rubber and 2 pieces of steamed buns.
Meng Qingyin sighed; the wooden supply crates were dropping fewer and fewer supplies these days.
The little guy woke up and cried out in a babyish voice that he was hungry. Meng Qingyin fed him two steamed buns, but it wasn't even enough to fill his teeth.
She bought quite a lot of fast food, but the little one is still too young to eat it properly.
Meng Qingyin's arms were still sore, so she went directly to the chat area to send messages to exchange resources with other players.
Mengmeng: "Trade flour for noodles. 1.5 jin of flour for 1 jin of dried noodles. Contact me if you have dried noodles! [Link: If you're a brother, come and cut the price!] And help me cut the price too! Thanks!"
Xiaoxiao Yumian: "Mengmeng, can you please stop sending links? If you want others to help you, show some sincerity and give us some supplies. Is it really okay to just freeload like this?"
Century Egg and Lean Pork Congee: "Upstairs, if you don't want to order, you can block me. There's no need to shamelessly ask for a treat, right? Mengmeng didn't ask you to order it."
Xiaoxiaoyumian: "The chat area is a public place, not a place to advertise! It's clearly Mengmeng who's annoying people by sending too many messages. If he had sent a few fewer, why should I block him? And who's the one demanding benefits? If he were willing to offer everyone even a little something practical, I wouldn't have said anything to him."
Xiao Dao La Pipi: "I also think it's annoying for Mengmeng to keep posting like this... Nobody is obligated to help him cut things for free. Who would be happy to ask others for help without giving them any benefits?"
Lonely Square 3: "No, bro, you guys might as well just have 'freeloader' written all over your faces. Mengmeng didn't force you. You can order if you want, or not if you don't. Why are you asking for free stuff? Should I slap you across the face?"
Century Egg and Lean Pork Congee: "That's right, and Mengmeng doesn't post that frequently either. There are plenty of people who post more frequently than him. I think you guys have been secretly keeping an eye on him, haven't you?"
Wei Ai hurled insults: "Why should anyone give him anything if we don't give him anything in return? Do you think we're so idle?"
The elderly man said, "Alright, alright, everyone calm down and stop arguing! Young people, don't get so worked up. What's the point of arguing over such a small thing?"
Meng Qingyin never expected that such a small matter could lead to an argument.
It seems that players have become quite irritable in the past few days due to the shortage of supplies.
However, beneath this volatile exterior lies the greed of some.
Mengmeng: "[Link: If you're a true brother, come and cut the price!] Thanks to all the brothers and sisters who helped me cut the price. Since you mentioned me, let me give you another plug and help cut the price. Friendly reminder: If you don't like it, you can block me now."
Century Egg and Lean Pork Congee: "Hahaha, you're really something, taking advantage of this trend to run an ad?"
Xiaoxiao Yumian: "Crazy! Blocked! I advise everyone not to help him! A penny-pincher!"
I was speechless: "Oh, is the person upstairs getting angry because they can't get any benefits?"
mlgb: "First of all, let me clarify that I'm just a passerby. I just can't stand Mengmeng's freeloading behavior. I won't help her unless she gives me something in return!"
Sunflower: "Yes, if you want us to help you out, then bring something out, whether it's food or upgrade materials, we won't mind."
As more and more people in the chat area echoed her sentiments, Meng Qingyin simply closed the chat area.
A short while later, someone messaged her privately; it was an unfamiliar ID.
My skateboard shoes: "Mengmeng, are you really willing to trade one and a half pounds of flour for one pound of noodles?"
Mengmeng: "Yes, how many kilograms do you want to exchange?"
Flour is not as convenient as dried noodles, and since there's a little foodie in the family, she needs the more convenient dried noodles.
My skateboard shoes: "I have ten pounds of noodles."
Meng Qingyin weighed out 15 jin of flour using an electronic scale and initiated a transaction request.
After the transaction was completed, ten kilograms of noodles appeared out of thin air in front of her.
My Skateboard Shoes: "Brother Mengmeng, don't mind what those people in the chat area are saying. They're just a minority of freeloaders. Most of us are willing to help you cut the price. After all, it's not a big deal, just a few clicks."
Mengmeng: "I don't care what those people say, but thank you anyway."
My skateboard shoes: "Hehe, I should thank you for the flour."
Mengmeng: "Take what you need, no need to be polite."
Seemingly realizing she had no intention of talking, "my skateboard shoes" sent a "bye-bye" message and then remained silent.
Meng Qingyin quickly started a fire to boil water and cook noodles.
She also shredded the carrot that Officer Rabbit had given her and put it in, so that she had some vegetables too.
The little guy was starving; as soon as Meng Qingyin served him noodles, he wanted to bury his whole head in the bowl.
