"Silly..." Li Wenxi almost threw away the half orange in his hand. "This thing is a chronic poison!"
"Chronic poison? That's a very apt term." Xu Ying was still putting petals of the chronic poison into her mouth. "But don't worry too much. There are plenty of genetic potions in Crystal City. My brother will definitely save one for you. Even if you become stupid by then, you can just inject the genetic potion and you'll be fine. Okay, take it."
"I see..."
Li Wenxi had heard about Crystal City's genetic potion from Xu Ying before, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the half orange in his hand, he immediately stuffed the remaining half into his mouth and chewed it vengefully!
This is actually a chronic poison!
Xu Ying had already eaten the whole orange and licked her fingers with satisfaction: "It's really good! I haven't eaten an orange like this since the time travel began."
"Well... If I really become stupid, don't forget to take me back..." Li Wenxi swallowed the whole orange, feeling a little panicked.
"Then you must be at least 40 or 50 years old, right? How could you stay here for so long? I'm afraid my brother will come looking for you in a while. If not, we can go out and look for him after we finish dealing with things here."
"Oh... We are fine, but those other survivors..." Li Wenxi suddenly remembered that blue-level fruits are very common among the survivors, and most of them should be eating them.
"There's no other way. If you want to gain certain abilities, you have to pay something. And those people..."
Xu Ying had no interest in the other survivors. "Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. I'll show you around. There should be some mining sites nearby, right?"
"Let's go over there. I feel like there might be something there."
"Okay, so what on earth did you do here fifty years ago? Tell me about it!"
"Well, nothing special. My brother does all the work. I just..."
…
On the ground.
"You found another statue in another place?" Zeng Tao asked in surprise.
"It wasn't me who discovered it, it was this little guy who discovered it." Lou Feier rubbed Coco's big tail.
"Hmm..." Coco moved her tail and continued to lie in her arms in a daze.
"Whose statue is this? Could it be Xu Xin's again?" Zeng Tao thought of something and became excited. "Could it be that there's a crystal city down there?"
"It's not Xu Xin, it's a statue of... a woman."
Lou Feier sat on the sofa, stretched, and said, "It's very secret, in an almost untraceable crevice in the mountain. Going deeper, there's quite a lot of space inside, and inside there's a statue. If Keke hadn't gotten in there, I wouldn't have found it at all."
"It's so mysterious, there must be something good! Haven't you ever explored it?" Zeng Tao also came over and sat next to her. "Who is that withered woman? Have you seen her?"
Now both of them are in Lou Feier's tree house.
"No." Lou Feier shook her head. "I didn't explore there either. I always felt a strange sense of unease there. I felt that exploring alone would cause trouble. And now is a special period, so I picked up Keke, who was lying on the statue's stare, and hurried back. We should discuss this matter together. At least I want to bring back some information."
"Indeed, if you act on your own, it would be bad if you get lost or something happens to you." Zeng Tao's eyes moved slightly, "Hey, hey, hey, how about we go and take a look? We two should be fine, right?"
"What are you thinking!" Lou Feier said unhappily, "We are still protecting the World Tree. What's the point of us two running away?"
"Well, okay..." Zeng Tao lay down on the sofa, "It's really boring."
"Where's Jin Yue?"
"She's helping Ma Hongwei and the others upgrade the treehouse heavy crossbows for the survivors, so they can also become a fighting force in the protection battle."
"With Wen Xi not here, will the resources be enough?" Lou Feier was a little worried.
"They say the iron ore deposits Wen Xi discovered haven't been mined out yet. Is that enough for now? I don't understand. Let them handle those things." Zeng Tao turned over on the sofa and muttered, "Xu Xin is so slow. How long will he occupy my tree house?"
