Chapter 213 Let me let you taste this flavor too
The giant, whether awakened by pain or the cold, let out several screams.
"Xiao Hei, go inside and find some thick, long ropes."
Honghong said, "I know where the rope is, I'll go with it."
Now that Honghong knows that Xiaohei is a spiritual tiger, she is not afraid at all. So she takes it into the cave and finds some very thick ropes. Honghong really can't lift these ropes, so she puts them on the tiger's back.
When they came out, the giant was knocked unconscious again by Bao Shuoyu's punch. "It's too noisy, so annoying."
Then they tied him up tightly with ropes, and then hung him on the wooden frame outside the cave. The wooden frame was very thick and sturdy, and even a heavy person like a giant could bear it.
And so, when the giant woke up again, he found himself naked, his hair shaved off, hanging up, covered in wounds, cold and in pain, howling angrily at Yu Xiaoluo.
"How about it? You really like drying people into jerky, don't you? Well, let you experience that too. You silly bear, you're enjoying it, aren't you? I, Yu Xiaoluo, am very considerate of others."
The giant's angry voice gradually turned into fear and helplessness, "Please—please—let me go, I'll do anything you want."
This was the first time the giant had uttered a complete sentence.
"Oh, you can talk now. So you're a person after all. You're not a dog, and you're not a bear. You stinky bear, tell me, what can you do?"
"I—I can hunt, I can run—"
Before he could finish speaking, Yu Xiaoluo giggled, "Looks like it really is useless. Oh well, let it hang there and dry. Such a big piece of meat can be a feast for the animals on Kunshan if they have nothing else to eat. Nothing will be wasted."
So Yu Xiaoluo ignored him and looked at Brother Tao, "Our things are still in our camp. Have Xiao Hei take you there. After you've packed your things, go down the mountain."
Tao and Honghong exchanged glances, whispered something, and then said to Yu Xiaoluo, "Miss Yu, we want to bury our companions' bodies properly. We can't take them with us, so we can only give them a proper burial."
Yu Xiaoluo nodded, and so they went into the cave. There were quite a few tools in the cave, all kinds of tools. They found a shovel and a hoe, and dug a large hole around the cave.
After digging, they dragged the bodies of their companions out of the cave and buried them.
Tao took a wooden plaque, engraved their names on it, and then, with a sorrowful and solemn expression, bowed deeply to the plaque.
“Mr. Bao, Ms. Yu, we will never forget your life-saving grace. After we return safely, we will definitely visit you in Kangba City when we have the opportunity.”
They bowed to Yu Xiaoluo and Bao Shuoyu, then sat on Xiao Hei's back. Xiao Hei carried them slowly towards the camp.
As they disappeared, Yu Xiaoluo's system notification sounded: [Completed 4 good deeds, accumulated good deed points 220, merit points +80, accumulated merit points 782.]
A trip to Kunshan definitely boosted my "good things" value quite quickly, especially what happened on the plane.
It seems that coming to Kunshan was the right choice.
"Alright, let's go. There's nothing good about staying in this godforsaken place." Bao Shuoyu pulled Yu Xiaoluo's hand, about to leave, but the giant became anxious.
"Wait! Please stop! I know of a treasure trove with countless gold and silver treasures. If you let me go, I can take you there."
By this time, the giant was almost frozen bluish-purple.
"Heh." Yu Xiaolu snorted coldly, "Do you think I'm short of money?"
"No, no, not at all, but the more money the better."
The giant seemed to have frozen stiff, or perhaps he had been talking too much earlier, because he was becoming increasingly talkative. It was as if he was experiencing a final burst of energy before death.
This logic seems to make no problem.
Yu Xiaoluo was about to say something when Bao Shuoyu stopped her, "Bear, do you know where in Kunshan there is a thousand-year-old human-shaped snow fungus?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaoluo slapped her forehead, realizing she had completely forgotten about it. Wasn't this the very reason she had come? It seemed she had gotten carried away by the good deed.
"Yes, yes, you stinky bear, if you just tell me, I'll consider letting you down." Yes, this giant must have lived in Kunshan for many years and might know about this.
"A thousand-year-old humanoid snow mushroom?" The giant fell silent, seemingly thinking about something. "You mean a humanoid snow mushroom? I know, but it's on the summit of another mountain range, quite far away, and I've been there."
Yu Xiaoluo's eyes lit up, and she exchanged a glance with Bao Shuoyu; their eyes were filled with surprise.
"Then hurry up and tell me!"
"But, but I'm so cold—" The giant's lips trembled, and his speech became incoherent.
Bao Shuoyu didn't say anything, but went into the cave, found a fur coat, and then cut the giant's ropes.
“Bear, if you dare to lie to us, I’ll slice you piece by piece with your knife, and after forty-nine days I’ll let you die.”
Bao Shuoyu stared at him coldly, and the giant shuddered.
He now has a deep-seated fear of Bao Shuyu; he has never seen such a terrifying man before, and he truly believes that Bao Shuyu is capable of such a thing.
"No, I really didn't lie to you." He quickly wrapped the fur coat around himself, and only then did he feel a little more comfortable.
"I also heard that eating this thousand-year-old snow mushroom will transform you and make you handsome. So, I searched for a while. I also wanted to be transformed and didn't want this strange appearance."
"I searched several times at first but couldn't find it, but I didn't give up. One full moon night, I couldn't sleep and wandered around looking for something to eat. I accidentally discovered a mountain peak emitting a strange, multicolored light, which was very beautiful."
"I didn't know what it was, so I ran over to take a look. I found a strange light there, shaped like a lotus flower, and on the lotus flower, a very cute three or four-year-old child was dancing. As he ran and danced, the beam of light moved with him."
"At the time, I was very surprised. I didn't know why there was such a little baby here, dressed very little, just wearing a red bib, but he wasn't afraid of the cold at all."
“I didn’t think much about it at the time. I thought the baby was so tender and must taste delicious, so I rushed over to grab him. But as soon as I heard a noise, he suddenly disappeared, and I couldn’t find him no matter how hard I looked. I had to give up.”
"The next morning, I went to that place to look for him again, and I found that there was a snow-white Ganoderma lucidum where he disappeared. It was blended into the snow. I didn't see it last night because it was dark, but I could see it clearly during the day when the light was better."
