Chapter 414: Hunt In Mount Wu
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lin Wenwen gave a few more glances at Mrs. Lin and Lin Wenwe. After making sure that both of them were fine, she turned to say to Du Yuanxing, “Get him out, or I might accidentally destroy him!”
Du Yuanxing walked to Huang Tianfei, who was still lying on the ground and twisting, and said, “He’s at level-five at least. He actually got in.”
“What do you mean?” asked Lin Qiao.
“Well, Chief Wu gathered this batch of people. To ensure an opportunity of survival for these commoners, he forbade the superpowered people at level-two or above to apply for the jobs here. I’m surprised that this man actually got in. Maybe there’re others like him.”
While speaking, he gave Huang Tianfei a kick. The latter was twitching stiffly, yet his eyes were rolling quickly.
“As a human being, you should have a conscience. Otherwise, you’ll die miserably,” Du Yuanxing said to him. After that, he bent over, grabbed Huang Tianfei’s jacket, and dragged him outside.
Lin Qiao glanced at Lin Wenwen again. Her face was hurt, yet she didn’t seem to care about that. Unlike her, Mrs. Lin seemed to care a lot.
‘That scum actually came here. What a coincidence!?‘ thought Lin Qiao. But soon, she started thinking about what Du Yuanxing just said.
Chief Wu gathered this batch of people? What did that mean? What did Wu Chengyue do? And, why did he do that?
He sent the first batch of workers as a payback to Lin Qiao for saving Ling Ling’s life. But, what about the second batch? What reason did he have to help Lin Qiao further?
Lin Qiao couldn’t figure it out, so she turned and went back upstairs.
Earlier on, she grasped a familiar scent from upstairs, so she came down with curiosity to see what happened. To her surprise, she saw that scum trying to take Tongtong away in front of so many people.
Upstairs, she went to Liu Jun’s room and found that the latter was checking Tongtong’s arm. Tongtong’s wrist which was finally not scrawny anymore was now very red, even a little bruised.
The little boy was sitting on the bed and crying.
Lin Qiao frowned slightly and said, “That b*stard really doesn’t care about the kid’s feelings. How did you end up with a guy like that?”
Liu Jun dropped her eyelids and sighed, “He saved my life once, and helped me a lot. I thought that he was a good guy. However, after we got together, he began to show his ugly nature. But at that time, it was already too late for me to regret.”
Lin Qiao nodded knowingly, “He lied to you? Many men do that.”
“I let him go this time to pay him back for saving my life. I have nothing to do with him from now on,” said Liu Jun.
Lin Qiao gave her a glance and said, “You offered him yourself. You didn’t owe him anything. You even bore him a son. He just didn’t treasure all that.”
…
Next day, Yuan Tianxing’s people guided the second batch of workers to the construction site. With more people, the work was getting done more efficiently.
Lin Qiao led Qiu Lili, Xie Dong, and Shen Yujen out again. This time, they weren’t looking for supplies, but for land.
They went out to look for land suitable for farming.
The Upper City District was mostly occupied by buildings. However, there was a scenic spot named Mount Wu. Some lands around the mountain should be good enough for growing crops.
Lin Qiao planned to go there and take a look.
She picked that area also because Mount Wu wasn’t far away, and was right inside the Upper City District. Moreover, she hadn’t been eating any meat for a very long time!
Thinking of meat, she couldn’t help but lick her lips.
“What are you thinking about?” Qiu Lili looked at her and asked while thinking.
Lin Qiao laughed, “I’m thinking that I haven’t had any meat for a long time. Today, we’ll get into the mountain and see what food we might find.”
“You only eat animals. I don’t think they taste good,” said Qiu Lili. What Lin Qiao said didn’t interest her at all. After saying that, she filled her face with dislike.
Xie Dong and Shen Yujen who were sitting in the backseat got confused by their conversation.
“Aren’t you here to look for farming land?” Qiu Lili continued.
Lin Qiao nodded and said, “Yeah. I can hunt while observing the land. Isn’t that perfect?”
Qiu Lili gave her a weird glance and said, “Why do I feel that you look a little like a child who lives in the countryside? Did you always do such things when you were little?”
Lin Qiao smilingly glanced at her and replied, “Can you tell?”
Lin Qiao parked the car by the entrance of the Liangshan Road in Mount Wu area and then got off.
A refreshing scent of the forest immediately embraced her.
Lin Qiao leaned her head forward and sniffed around, then put the vehicle back into her space. After that, she pointed at the mountain forest and said, “I sense the smell of a mutant beast over there. Let’s go.”
Then, she led the other three and began the adventure.
Qiu Lili gently leaped up and directly hopped on top of a tree, bringing up a soft breeze. Meanwhile, Xie Dong and Shen Yujen quietly followed behind Lin Qiao, heading into the forest.
Lin Qiao restrained her vibe entirely while following that smell further into the forest. The stones, grasses, and thorns under her feet could not affect her at all.
She recognized that smell. If she were right, somewhere in front of her should be lots of… snakes.
Yeah, the giant snake that she hunted the last time tasted nice.
Except for the scents of snakes, she had also smelled mice. As some old people said, snakes and mice were family.
Those mice smelled weird, but, Lin Qiao still had an appetite for them.
Lin Qiao excitedly followed the smell of the snakes. The two zombies behind her had no idea why her eyes were glowing more and more brightly.
Qiu Lili flew about seven-hundred meters forward, then silently flew back.
When she saw those countless snakes coiling on the branches in that area, her scalp was even numbed. Without saying a word, she turned and headed back.
Lin Qiao walked about seven-hundred meters further into the forest, then saw a finger-thick, green-colored snake slide across. As she made two more steps, two small snakes with stripes swiftly wriggled across the backs of her feet.
She raised her head to find all sorts of snakes in different colors coiling on the branches and the ground, squirming. Some of those snakes were as thick as her wrist, and some were as thin as her finger.
She abruptly reached out a hand and caught an arm-thick black snake.
It was about a meter long. As its neck was gripped in Lin Qiao’s hand, it coiled its body around her arm.
Lin Qiao popped her claws and dragged the snake off her arm, then straightened it and poked one claw into its belly. With that, she began cutting it from the neck to the tail.
Her claw cut open the snake’s belly and generated a noise. The snake was cut open alive, yet its tail was still twitching intensely.
After opening the snake up, Lin Qiao put two fingers into its belly and stirred for a few times. Then, she took out the snake’s gall.
Next, she opened her mouth and threw the snake gall in, swallowing it.
She didn’t chew it this time, so she didn’t taste any bitterness. Last time, her brain had even stopped working because of the bitterness of the snake gall.
