"Woof woof!" Ah Shou was delighted and looked arrogantly at Ah Fu, who was still eating, and Ah Liu, who was peeking from the side, as if showing off Lin Ruo's affection.
Helpless, Lin Ruo could only take out three more large watermelons from her spatial storage. Afu and Ashou probably couldn't eat all of this, as food would freeze quickly if left outside in this weather.
Ah Liu happily carried the watermelon out to eat, while Ah Fu and Ah Shou also held the watermelon in their arms, very protective of their food.
Lin Ruo stretched. Two hours had passed since the meal started, and it was now 11 p.m.
After adding more firewood to the campfire on the platform, Lin Ruo got up to prepare a small lodging for Afu and Ashou.
Their tiny nest was empty except for a fireplace, an electric heater, and a power supply box. The "tidying up" was really just making up their nest.
A layer of warm leather was laid on the ground, followed by a thick wooden board. On the board were two mattresses, then two thick blankets, and finally a thick down comforter. Lin Ruo sat on it and tried it out. It was soft, cozy, and super warm. The nest was now ready.
I put a lot of their favorite toys in here, and then lit the fireplace for them. That was it.
When Lin Ruo left the inn, she found that Afu had already eaten its fill. It hadn't touched the mutton, there was still a little bit of bear paw left, and half of the watermelon was neatly placed in the bowl without getting it dirty.
Ah Shou was still eating. Lin Ruo saw that its belly was bulging. It had already finished the watermelon, the mutton was still in the bowl, and it was still gnawing on the bear paw. But it was clear that it was no longer hungry and was eating very slowly, almost as if it was grinding its teeth.
"If you can't eat anymore, don't eat anymore. I'll put it away for you, and you can eat it next time." Lin Ruo moved closer to Ah Shou and patted its big mouth that was still chewing.
Ah Shou looked at Lin Ruo and then at the food bowl in front of him. Finally, reason prevailed, and he nodded in agreement with Lin Ruo. He really couldn't eat anymore.
Lin Ruo stroked Ashou's fur and put Ashou and Afu's food bowls into the still space.
After finishing his meal, Ah Shou stretched and yawned, then ran over to Ah Fu and pounced on him, pinning him down.
Afu naturally wouldn't let it go. He turned around and pinned Ashou down, growling as he tried to grab the back of Ashou's neck, but without using force. No matter how Ashou struggled, it couldn't break free and whimpered at Lin Ruo.
Lin Ruo turned her head to the side, pretending not to see. She was both incompetent and playful. Even when she couldn't beat someone, she would still provoke them. She deserved to be taught a lesson.
She used her water-based abilities to clean all the cooking utensils and tableware used for grilling. Then, with a gentle wave of her hand, the oily, dirty water flew more than ten meters away from the exit of the protective shield before falling from the air.
She withdrew her spiritual energy and put all the cleaned dishes and other items into her spatial storage. It was getting late, and Afu and Ashou had already gone to bed.
She went outside first and sprinkled a circle of her self-developed insect repellent powder two meters away from the shelter to prevent mutated insects or mutated rats from attacking. She also added a thick layer of ice to the protective shield so that even if large mutated beasts attacked, they wouldn't be able to break the ice in a short time.
After doing all that, Lin Ruo went to check on A Fu and Ashou. It was A Fu's turn to keep watch today. A Fu looked up when he heard the noise.
Lin Ruo approached and stroked its pure silver fur. "Go to sleep. I'll add some more charcoal for you."
Afu nudged Lin Ruo's palm with his head, then obediently lay down on the ground again and closed his eyes.
But Lin Ruo knew it wasn't asleep at all. Ah Shou next to it was snoring away, and Ah Fu couldn't possibly be asleep; it was an unspoken understanding between them.
She added a large piece of wood to their fireplace, plugged the electric heater into the power box, turned it on, and the heater started heating up, making the whole house even warmer.
Lin Ruo then returned to her room, added a large piece of wood to the fireplace, and turned on both electric heaters at the same time, warming up the entire room.
She sat on the sofa, took out a thick blanket and covered her legs, then took out a tablet from her storage space, which displayed a map of the entire Yanshan Mountains.
She looked down and carefully marked the places she had visited in the past two days on the map.
The Yanshan Mountains are vast. To find underground minerals before the B City base, a planned search is necessary. The places she searched were all within five kilometers of the B City base.
She planned out tomorrow's route on the map and drew it with lines.
In another day, most of the plants and animals will have completed their mutations. At that time, I'm afraid this place will not be peaceful. We must find the location of the ore as soon as possible.
With everything planned out, the room temperature rose above zero. She took off her down jacket, took a shower in the bathroom, and then crawled into bed. She turned on the electric blanket, and everything around her was warm and cozy. She slowly drifted off to sleep.
