Chapter 348: Come Take a Bite
Let’s spend the night here.
Lin Qiye walked to a relatively spacious clearing in the woods, carefully sensing the area with his mental energy, and spoke up.
It was already late at night. Since they entered the forest, nearly six hours had passed. They had experienced battles with the red giant ants and the pursuit of paper figures, compounded by the relentless cold, leaving them mentally fatigued.
Let’s rest for four hours and then continue exploring. Lin Qiye glanced at the time and turned to Bai Li Pangpang. Get the tents and everything else set up.
Alright!
Bai Li Pangpang responded, reaching into his pocket, and the next moment, he pulled out two large black tents and placed them in the center of the clearing.
With sturdy metal frames, thick outer layers, and warm internal structures, these two tents immediately suggested a hefty price tag.
Lin Qiye examined the tents for a moment, a hint of surprise appearing in his eyes.
He had expected Bai Li Pangpang to buy good equipment, after all, he was the young master of the Bai Li Group and not short on money. However, he had never seen such high-end tents before.
The tents were set up, so let’s arrange the night watch schedule. Lin Qiye pondered for a moment. Qing Yu and Cao Yuan will take the first two hours, and Pangpang and I will take the last two hours. How does that sound?
The other three had no objections, so Lin Qiye nodded. Good, then let’s rest first…
Wait! Bai Li Pangpang suddenly spoke up.
Lin Qiye and Cao Yuan looked at him in confusion, while An Qingyu sighed quietly, as if he already knew what Bai Li Pangpang was planning…
I haven’t set everything up yet. Bai Li Pangpang grinned and reached back into his pocket…
In the next moment, under the astonished gazes of Lin Qiye and Cao Yuan, he pulled out two two-meter-wide soft mattresses and stuffed them into the tent.
Fortunately, the tents Bai Li Pangpang bought were spacious enough that even with a mattress inside, it didn’t affect the internal space at all.
Next came four velvet blankets, four rocking chairs, two high-power electric heaters, four diesel generators, twenty-four barrels of diesel, four high-spec Alien desktop computers, four rosewood tables, four gaming chairs, as well as an air purifier, a humidifier, a floor lamp, a small tea table, and purple clay tea sets…
After a dozen strings of twinkling star lights were perfectly draped around the tents, Bai Li Pangpang clapped his hands, stepped back, and nodded in satisfaction.
It’s done!
The luxurious floor lamp cast a warm light on the dazed faces of Lin Qiye and Cao Yuan. They stood in front of this mansion-like wilderness survival space, watching Bai Li Pangpang leisurely roasting snowflake beef with a flamethrower, completely petrified.
You… you…
What’s wrong? Bai Li Pangpang scratched his head in confusion. Shouldn’t all the survival gear be ready? What else is missing…
Suddenly, he seemed to remember something and slapped his thigh!
Oh no, I forgot to buy Lao Gan Ma!
The corners of Lin Qiye’s mouth twitched slightly as he slowly turned to An Qingyu, who helplessly closed his eyes and sighed deeply.
…
On the other side of the primitive forest.
In the cold wind, Li Deyang, wrapped in a dark red cloak, crouched on the muddy ground. The flashlight’s beam traced the footprints on the ground, extending outward bit by bit. He squinted, a look of confusion appearing in his eyes.
Uncle Li, isn’t this the right path? Chen Han asked, noticing Li Deyang’s expression.
It is, but those giant ants are so massive that all their weight is on six legs, making their footprints easy to identify. They went in this direction…
Li Deyang slowly stood up and continued, but strangely, besides the giant ant’s footprints, there are also footprints from four other people…
There are human footprints? Chen Han was taken aback. At this time, how could anyone still be entering the forest?
From the traces in the mud, they likely entered the forest even earlier than the giant ants. It’s possible that after the giant ant captured Tingting, it discovered their presence and followed the footprints of those four people, hoping to catch more prey in one go. Li Deyang’s eyes narrowed; this creature isn’t lacking in intelligence…
Four people… Chen Han seemed to realize something. Uncle Li, could it be those four from earlier?
It’s possible. Li Deyang nodded.
Then aren’t they in danger? Chen Han’s expression turned grim.
Li Deyang sighed, looking up at the deep woods ahead, and spoke irritably: These young people really don’t fear death!
He tightened his grip on the knife in his hand, leading Chen Han behind him as they sprinted forward once more.
…
Inside the warm and comfortable tent, Lin Qiye, lying on the mattress, suddenly opened his eyes.
He slowly sat up, checked the time, wrapped himself in a nearby thermal suit, put on his hat, and pulled back the tent flap to step outside.
It’s time to switch shifts; you guys go rest. Lin Qiye walked over to the heater and said to An Qingyu and Cao Yuan.
Then he went to the adjacent tent and kicked Bai Li Pangpang, who was sleeping like a dead pig, awake.
Once the two of them returned to their tents to sleep, Lin Qiye placed his hand by the heater to warm up. Bai Li Pangpang, rubbing his sleepy eyes, yawned while pulling food out of his pocket…
Qiye, do you prefer coffee or milk for breakfast?
Lin Qiye’s mouth twitched. Coffee, please.
Bai Li Pangpang pulled out a coffee machine half a meter tall, pouring coffee beans into it as if they were free, connected it to the generator, and a few minutes later, a steaming cup of coffee was delivered to Lin Qiye.
Sitting in a rocking chair, Lin Qiye looked at the steaming coffee, cookies, and a fragrant snowflake steak on the small table in front of him, lost in thought…
This seems a bit different from what he imagined wilderness survival would be like…
Lin Qiye shook his head, dismissing those complicated thoughts, and leisurely picked up the knife in his hand to start cutting the steak.
Just as he cut the first slice, Lin Qiye’s hand froze in mid-air.
He looked up, gazing into the distance of the forest.
There, at the edge of the woods, a red giant ant was carrying a fainted girl, staring intently at Lin Qiye, not sure if it was looking at him or the steak in his hand…
Lin Qiye pondered for a moment, speared the first piece of delicious beef with his fork, and smiled as he held it up in front of him.
That expression seemed to say:
Want some?
Come over here!
If you come, I’ll let you have a bite…
