Regret youthful ignorance
Chapter 247 The Might of Rice
Xiao Yu's operation was doomed from the start.
Because Mi Ling and the others had no idea that Yuri could control small animals, using them as eyes and ears.
And it was hard to detect.
Xiao Haoran and the others drove, dropping Xiao Yu off four or five li away from their destination.
Xiao Yu looked around, saw no one, and activated her invisibility.
Xia Haoran left the potatoes under a bare tree and departed. Xiao Yu observed from the shadows.
Yuri chuckled, "Do you know how cautious I am?
I knew you wouldn't give up. Just wait patiently."
Xiao Yu's invisibility was effective against zombies because their sense of smell was only slightly more sensitive than humans.
Small animals were different; they were extremely sensitive to scents. Even if Yuri didn't notice Xiao Yu, he could detect her through their sense of smell.
After standing in the cold wind for three hours, Xiao Yu was bored to death. She didn't see anyone, but she did get a pile of bird droppings.
A large bird passed over Xiao Yu's head, dropping a load of poop right on her head.
Seeing Xiao Yu's stunned face and hearing her scream, Yuri laughed heartily.
Xiao Yu, whose invisibility was about to end, angrily picked up the potatoes and went home.
Yuri didn't care. Better safe than sorry. Haste makes waste.
He absolutely couldn't be discovered. Otherwise, with the strength of Chen Luo's base, he'd probably be forced to flee to the ends of the earth.
It wasn't like he wanted to, but who else had a large supply of fresh potatoes like Chen Luo at this time?
I, Yuri, will eat these potatoes standing up!
Mi Ling gritted her teeth in anger. This old fox, how could he be so cunning and impossible to catch?
If Chen Luo were back, maybe he'd have a solution.
The next day, a mutated bird flew to the base. It was sent by Yuri.
It wasn't very strong, but it could serve as a transport bird, carrying hundreds of pounds of goods at a time.
The bird had a letter in its claws, so the members didn't attack it directly.
The letter read:
"I'm not playing with you anymore. Pack up a hundred pounds of potatoes and have the bird transport them back."
"This is the last time. You won't catch me."
"You wouldn't want your embarrassing secrets to be known to all the survivors, would you?"
Fa Wang narrowed his eyes. How could he kill this old fox and get points?
Track him? Dogs can't fly.
Mi Ling thought to herself, she could only let Hai Ji take action.
To have Hai Ji, a level ten, take action for such a small matter was really embarrassing, but the mastermind had to be caught.
Hai Ji readily agreed. She was tired of living and someone was causing trouble for her brother. If she caught him, she'd slap him to death.
The big bird carried a hundred pounds of potatoes, flying north. Hai Ji followed from a distance.
Hai Ji could easily see the big bird from three li away, following from afar without losing it.
And it was impossible for the big bird to discover Hai Ji.
Although Hai Ji wasn't flying particularly fast, could she not keep up with a big bird?
The big bird flew and flew, circling around, occasionally stopping to rest, looking left and right.
It wasn't until six hours later that the big bird flew into a cave in the wilderness.
Hai Ji wondered to herself, was the mastermind in the cave?
The target was likely in the cave, but Hai Ji didn't rush in, patiently waiting a while.
"Gua, gua."
A toad pretended to pass by.
Hai Ji's pupils constricted. She finally understood why Mi Ling had been failing all along.
So these little creatures were acting as eyes and ears.
It wasn't surprising that the person behind the scenes could control the big bird and the toad.
I failed too.
Hai Ji rushed into the cave, which had only one exit.
The big bird was in the cave, about to leave and head to its real destination, when Hai Ji killed it.
Yuri wasn't in the cave at all. It was just Yuri being overly cautious, checking to see if he was being followed.
Yuri broke out in a cold sweat. He didn't expect that there was a flying human following him.
Damn it, I almost got caught.
Fortunately, I'm as steady as a mountain.
Yuri's eyes flashed coldly. "If I don't give you a taste of your own medicine, I'm afraid you won't hand over the potatoes."
"I just want a few potatoes. Is that too much to ask?"
Mi Ling was very dejected. The person behind the scenes wasn't strong. He couldn't be stronger than Hai Ji.
But he was really difficult to deal with. She couldn't exert her strength.
How could she catch him?
He was just too cautious.
Controlling small animals?
No wonder every operation failed. Even Hai Ji couldn't track him.
Wait for Chen Luo to come back. They could only fight cunning with cunning.
The next day was a rare sunny day with bright sunshine.
Mi Fan was swimming back and forth in the pool in the yard.
Magically, there wasn't a single drop of water on Mi Fan's body. The surrounding water was automatically pushed away.
Because Mi Fan had Hai Ji's pearl on him.
Otherwise, how could Mi Fan, who was afraid of water, get into the water?
Mi Fan thought it was very fun and often played in the pool.
Suddenly, Mi Fan felt a chill in his heart and muttered, "I feel like I'm going to have bad luck."
A pile of poop accurately entered the pool.
With a splash, it created a ripple that spread into the pool, and the blue water began to change color.
Mi Fan ran out of the pool in a flash, crying and whimpering.
"Wuwuwu, who's so wicked?"
Yuri smirked from afar. "If you don't give me potatoes, you can wait for poop every day as long as I'm around."
"Look how scared this cat is, hahaha."
Mi Fan went to find Mi Li, asking her to give him a bath.
After washing three times, Mi Fan still felt smelly.
Mi Fan sobbed, "When Chen Luo comes back, if he smells a bad smell on me, he definitely won't hug me."
Mi Li comforted him, "No, you smell good."
Mi Li even pretended to sniff hard, "Mmm, Mi Fan smells so good."
Mi Fan pouted, so angry that he didn't even eat lunch.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, and he didn't even take his usual afternoon nap.
I must punish this person.
Mi Fan took out the level eight psychic crystal that Chen Luo had given him. Now, Mi Fan was only one step away from level seven.
He had been at the peak of level six for many days, but Mi Fan had been afraid of pain and hadn't advanced.
Now, in order to punish Yuri, he decided to advance to level seven.
A look of struggle appeared in Mi Fan's eyes.
"Ahhh, you're forcing me to do this."
"First of all, I, Mi Fan, haven't provoked anyone."
"Anyone who dares to bully me, Mi Fan, will pay the price."
Mi Fan felt that after advancing to level seven, he would be able to punish this Yuri.
Three minutes later, Mi Fan's fur was soaked with sweat, and his eyes showed exhaustion.
"Chen Luo bless me, I, Mi Fan, wasn't tortured to death. It really hurts so much."
After resting for a full half an hour, Mi Fan got up, grabbed Mi Li's white magic wand.
Mi Fan also took a small stool, stood on it, stood up straight, and held the magic wand.
Mi Fan looked serious, his big blue eyes filled with anger, and he waved the magic wand pretentiously.
"I'll punish you in the name of the moon!"
It seemed like nothing happened, but the light in Mi Fan's eyes dimmed a little.
Mi Fan felt very tired.
Yuri was humming a little tune, eating instant noodles. He didn't believe he couldn't get any potatoes.
Yuri's face darkened when he discovered that the bag of instant noodles had been crushed, and there were no seasonings inside.
And in the bite he took out of the sausage, there was actually half a maggot.
Where was the other half?
"Ugh."
Yuri felt disgusted. How could I encounter such low-probability events in a row?
Suddenly, thunder rumbled, and lightning flashed in the clouds.
The sound of thunder seemed to ring in Yuri's ears.
Humans were still in awe of the power of heaven.
Yuri comforted himself, "It's okay, there's a lightning rod on the roof. It can't strike me."
The next second, a bolt of lightning went straight through the window and accurately struck Yuri.
Yuri was charred all over, his body twitching. He lay on the ground for a long time before he barely had any strength.
"Why am I so unlucky?"
