Chapter 414 Your Bonus is Gone
Cheng Feng opened the pot lid, and the aroma of the food became even stronger, making people swallow their saliva.
Ignoring the temperature, which could scald an ordinary person, Cheng Feng picked up a large mantis shrimp directly.
Let's start peeling back the layers and showing off while it's still hot.
"It's delicious! Putting aside the medicinal effects of these peaches, the taste alone is absolutely amazing."
Cheng Feng didn't care that this thing was formed by absorbing nutrients from people.
Before cremation was implemented, people were buried directly in the ground, leading to an increase in the number of plants and animals that used human corpses for nutrients.
Therefore, these peaches are not particularly rare.
Black Bear didn't stand on ceremony. He took his big ladle and started scooping from below. Because of his skillful hand movements, he easily scooped out a large lobster.
The two began to eat and drink heartily while the food was still hot. During this time, Cheng Feng even took out two cans of beer that were emitting cold air.
One bite and you feel refreshed from the tips of your hair to your toenails.
On the other side, Ah Ning, who was lying on the ground, swallowed hard. After opening her eyes, her stomach immediately sent a report to Cheng Feng and Hei Xiazi.
The two noticed that Aning had woken up first, but neither of them said anything, since their mouths were full.
This stuff is surprisingly delicious; it makes you want to swallow your tongue.
If it weren't for the fact that the peaches ripen in such an anti-human way, Cheng Feng would have wanted to transplant a few trees into the imaginary space.
Upon waking up, Ah Ning first looked around, her gaze lingering on the sleeping Wu Xie for a moment before she got up and walked towards Cheng Feng.
"Mr. Cheng, thank you for saving my life."
Although Aning was already on the verge of death, she still remembered Cheng Feng's words to Hei Xiazi to take her there.
"Saying thank you isn't enough; remember you owe me a life."
After saying that, Cheng Feng ignored her and ate the peeled lobster meat on his own.
Ah Ning smelled the aroma lingering in her nose and mouth, watching the two people eating heartily, and her stomach began to protest again.
Under normal circumstances, she wouldn't be in such a terrible state.
The aroma is somewhat like that of a mole on a stone, which can stimulate one's most primal appetite.
Although she really wanted to eat it, Aning was also a very stubborn person. Before setting off, she said something she shouldn't have, which angered Cheng Feng.
I really don't have the face to ask Cheng Feng for food right now.
Finally, with immense willpower, Aning turned and walked to the side.
Black Bear's appetite was still within the normal range, so he quickly went from wolfing down his food to eating slowly and carefully.
"Boss, what are your plans for the future? It's not too late to leave now."
Black Bear was holding a can of beer, and the sunglasses that were originally in his pocket were now on his back.
Cheng Feng casually spoke between bites of food:
"Don't you want to treat your eyes anymore?"
"Compared to the unknown ancient gods, I actually trust you more, boss."
Hei Xiazi wasn't particularly attached to Lu. On one hand, his eyesight could still hold up for quite some time, so he wasn't in a hurry.
On the other hand, Cheng Feng's amazing skills were witnessed firsthand.
Compared to the ancient gods, whose existence is entirely based on speculation, Cheng Feng's claims are clearly more credible.
“Blind man, you’re not the kind of person who would entrust your fate to someone else.”
“You are my beloved boss, how can you be considered someone else?”
Hei Xiazi responded in a joking tone.
Cheng Feng did not respond immediately. After crushing the large crab claw in his hand, he continued eating.
After all the food in the pot was in Cheng Feng's stomach, he stretched and said:
"Let's get some sleep first, and we'll set off when Wuxie wakes up."
Clearly, Cheng Feng had no intention of leaving. Neither the system's task of clearing tasks nor his own desire for exploration had any reason to give up halfway.
Seeing that Cheng Feng had made his choice, Hei Xiazi calmly responded.
Whatever Cheng Feng chooses, it's pretty much the same to him now; there's no good or bad in it.
After Cheng Feng took away the large pot along with all the food scraps, A Ning, who was eating dry rations on the other side, felt a little better.
While Cheng Feng and Hei Xiazi were taking a short nap, Wu Xie, a college student whose constitution was even worse than A Ning's, finally woke up from his coma.
After the initial confusion, the first thing he said was, "Where is my third uncle?"
As the one being asked the question, Aning was also powerless to help.
When she woke up, only Cheng Feng and Hei Xiazi were having a meal together. There was no trace of anyone else, including her subordinates who were probably already dead.
"What are you going to do?"
A Ning grabbed Wu Xie, who was about to get up.
Wu Xie looked at Cheng Feng, who was sleeping not far away, and said:
"I need to ask my third uncle and Xiaohua about their whereabouts."
"Don't disturb their rest. Wait until they wake up before you talk to them."
Ah Ning looked at Wu Xie with an unfriendly expression.
Unlike Wu Xie, who was heartless, she still remembered Cheng Feng's life-saving grace.
Therefore, Wuxie did not want to disturb Cheng Feng, who had just fallen asleep.
But Wu Xie couldn't bear it; that was his beloved relative and his third uncle, who was like a father to him.
In his view, his third uncle would never abandon him while he was still unconscious, so something must have happened.
"Uncle Cheng, wake up, Uncle Cheng..."
Wu Xie called out to Cheng Feng, which almost made A Ning unable to resist punching Cheng Feng.
On the other side, Cheng Feng and Hei Xiazi both sat up with displeasure on their faces and turned to stare at the noisy Wu Xie.
Under the unfriendly gazes of the two, Wu Xie's momentum gradually weakened.
"Uncle Cheng, I'm sorry, I just wanted to know where my third uncle and the others went."
Ah Ning secretly rolled her eyes. Where did that fierce attitude she had when she was arguing with me just now go?
"Blind man, you handle them."
After Cheng Feng finished speaking, he turned around and lay down again. He was too lazy to explain to this stubborn guy why his third uncle had abandoned him.
Black Bear was filled with helplessness, but he still stretched and stood up.
He walked over to Wu Xie and sat down in front of him with a nonchalant air.
He told the two that Wu Sansheng had used the excuse of going to the front to scout ahead, but in reality he was leaving them with the burden and going ahead himself.
Wu Xie is actually much smarter than a normal person, but sometimes he is prone to acting on his emotions.
"No, my third uncle and the others must have run into some trouble. Is it that wooden building? I need to go find them."
As he spoke, Wu Xie stood up, picked up his backpack, and prepared to leave.
Hei Xiazi sighed, then lay down on the spot. He had said everything he needed to say, and what happened next was no longer his concern.
"Wu Sansheng entrusted this idiot to you, and just let him leave like that?"
Ah Ning glanced at Wu Xie's resolute back and asked Hei Xiazi with a hint of curiosity.
"Don't worry about him. Wu Sansheng is shrewd and calculating. Knowing Wu Xie as he does, he must have thought of this situation as well."
After muttering to himself, Hei Xiazi turned around, crossed his arms, and continued sleeping with the back of his face to Aning.
Aning didn't disturb Hei Xiazi any further. She quietly got up and began to observe the surrounding situation.
Before long, she found five complete combat suits that had been discarded in a corner.
At this point, she had no more hope. These unfortunate subordinates hadn't even been able to leave behind a complete corpse, and she couldn't help but sigh deeply.
