He asked MeiIn: "When do you plan to go? I'll go with you. "
MeiIn frowned and refused directly: "No, the deeper you go into the forest, the more dangerous it is. You can't go." He paused, as if comforting a child, and added: "I'll come back as soon as possible."
Xie Sen spread his hands: "I have to go. If I don't go with you, I'll go by myself." He pointed to his right shoulder: "The thing I said I was looking for, it sensed it. It's in the danger zone in the eastern part of the wild forest."
MeiIn frowned: "Is it related to the strange movement this time?"
"I don't know," Xie Sen said as he walked towards the kitchen: "I'll make dinner first, I'll talk to you later."
MeiIn followed him into the kitchen: "I'll help you."
Xie Sen smiled, knowing that he was fine, so he didn't stop him. Thinking about going to the forest, he was a little worried: "There are still six or seven hundred kilometers after leaving the city, is there any way to get to the danger zone quickly?"
"You can rent an aircraft, fly from the sky to the destination, and then climb a ladder to the ground. This is the fastest way, but it's dangerous."
Xie Sen felt that it was quite reliable: "Is it because it has a high physical requirement, and you're afraid that you won't have enough strength and will fall halfway?"
MeiIn's hand movements paused, and he wanted to laugh: "If you can't even do this, going to the forest is basically suicide. The danger I'm talking about is that during the descent, you may be attacked by animals at any time. Not only birds, but also all kinds of animals with strong jumping and large bodies, such as giant pythons. "
"In addition to the danger during the descent, because you're directly landing in the danger zone, the situation below is unknown, and your safety is not guaranteed."
Xie Sen was frightened, but he thought of what A Dan had said: he had a natural aura, and if he didn't attack animals, they wouldn't attack him, so he was relieved.
"Is there any other good way?"
MeiIn said: "In addition to this, you can only rent a flying beast, but to ensure safety, each beast will only ride the master and one guest, and the speed will be one-tenth of the aircraft."
Xie Sen shook his head at the thought of flying on the back of a bird without any cover. He thought it was cool to watch TV, but in fact, the airflow generated by flying would definitely kill him.
If he didn't hold it firmly and was accidentally blown off, that would be too tragic.
"Let's rent an aircraft … Is it expensive?" he asked.
"It's not that expensive. Fifty thousand a day. We only need a hundred thousand for a round trip," MeiIn said. "In addition to transportation, we also need to prepare medicine, food, and some tools. We can only leave in a few days."
Xie Sen calculated the time. "Your birthday is in seven days. Why don't we go after your birthday?"
He could also take advantage of these few days to gather energy so that he would have the ability to protect himself when he entered the forest.
MeiIn pondered for a moment: "Alright."
After dinner, Xie Sen contacted Sun Mao and asked him to work overtime tomorrow so that he could be transferred next week. Sun Mao agreed immediately and praised him.
MeiIn was sitting on the sofa. The coffee table was filled with all kinds of small parts, and she was focused on assembling them.
Xie Sen didn't disturb her. He went back to the bedroom and opened the system. After thinking for a while, he redeemed a one-meter watermelon vine.
He needed to understand the characteristics of the watermelon vine, as well as its usability and combat effectiveness, so that he could react quickly in actual combat.
He summoned the watermelon vine. The one-meter long dark green vine lay straight in front of him, with a big round watermelon hanging in the middle.
Xie Sen's eyes lit up. He swallowed silently and recalled the system's prompt. The keyword of the watermelon vine was toughness. He ordered the watermelon vine to form a circle.
The watermelon vine immediately changed from a straight line to a circle with its head and tail connected in front of him.
He then ordered the watermelon vine to coil into a fragrant shape, fancy knots, and so on. The watermelon vine was very slow when making complicated knots at first, but after a few practice, it became very fast.
Xie Sen smiled with satisfaction. His eyes turned to the cup on the bedside table. "Tie the cup and lift it up."
The watermelon vine flew quickly to the bedside table. With a bang, the watermelon hanging from the vine hit the cabinet door. A crack appeared in the middle of the round watermelon, revealing the red flesh.
The watermelon vine didn't notice anything wrong at all. It meticulously completed Xie Sen's instructions. It tied the cup and shook it in front of Xie Sen. The watermelon juice flowed all over the floor.
Xie Sen felt his heart ache. He quickly held the watermelon. Before he could move, the watermelon fell from the watermelon vine into his hands.
Xie Sen tapped the watermelon with his finger. He was sure that it was as brittle as the ones that grew in the ground. Its only offensive ability was probably to be used to hit people.
As for the watermelon vine, he had a lot of ideas in his mind. However, there was a requirement for its length. He didn't have much energy left, so he didn't plan to try it out for the time being.
After thinking carefully, he couldn't help but laugh. The watermelon vine was very tough. As long as it wasn't broken by a sharp weapon, there was almost no damage. It saved more energy than making chili peppers.
Moreover, it gave him a watermelon for one energy. It was really great!
He recalled the watermelon vine and happily took the watermelon out. He divided it into two halves. He put one half in the fridge and divided the other half into two halves. He and MeiIn each had one half.
"Take a break and eat something delicious." Xie Sen handed the watermelon to MeiIn.
MeiIn washed her hands and took it. After looking at it for a moment, she asked, "What is this?"
"Watermelon. Eat the red part in the middle and spit out the black seeds." Xie Sen finished and took a big bite. The sweet watermelon juice filled his mouth and a faint sweet smell entered his nose.
It was so delicious! Xie Sen was so moved that he wanted to cry. He hadn't eaten watermelon for a long time since the apocalypse.
He didn't have time to talk. He ate a quarter of the watermelon in one breath. He collapsed on the sofa and touched his stomach, "I'm so full. I'm so satisfied!"
He tilted his head and looked at MeiIn. MeiIn ate a little slower than him, but she was still eating.
Xie Sen looked at the 2 Energy Points in front of him and couldn't help but be surprised. For the past few days, MeiIn had given him 3 Energy Points every morning. Today, with the 2 Energy Points, MeiIn had given him 5 Energy Points in one day.
MeiIn ate according to Xie Sen's way of eating. She left the green skin and finished the meat. She looked at Xie Sen with bright eyes, "It's very delicious!"
Xie Sen didn't doubt her evaluation and gave her 2 Energy Points! It was enough to exchange for two watermelons.
Xie Sen smiled, "There's still half left. We'll eat it tomorrow."
MeiIn asked, "This … is this also the fruit of your contract beast?"
Xie Sen nodded, "Yes."
MeiIn looked at the melon skin on the table, picked it up and smelled it, "It's still very fragrant. Can't we eat this?" He said and took a bite. He felt that it was crispy and fragrant, "It tastes very good."
Xie Sen slapped his head. At this time, he actually remembered not to eat melon skin. Melon skin was also a good thing here!
He had heard of melon skin salad as a dessert, but he had never eaten it or made it. However, this clearly showed that melon skin was edible.
He put away the leftover melon skin, "I'm so full now. I'll take care of it tomorrow and see what I can eat."
MeiIn handed the melon skin to him, "I'm full too."
"Chirp ~" Tuan Tuan flew in from the window, straight towards Maine, and pecked at his wrist. Maine withdrew his hand, pecked at the melon skin, pulled out his beak, and chirped happily. Maine withdrew his hand. He pecked at the melon skin, pulled out his beak, and happily chirped.
Then, as if its neck had a motor, it pecked at the melon skin crazily.
MeiIn pulled back his hand and looked at it with an unfriendly expression, "This is not for you to eat."
"Chirp ~" The Tuan Tuan stared at the melon skin and tried to eat it, but MeiIn dodged it again.
Xie Sen was a little embarrassed. If someone had told him that melon skin would be so popular one day, he would not have believed it.
He took the melon skin from MeiIn's hand and put it in the corner of the coffee table, "You can only eat this much. Don't steal any."
The Tuan Tuan nodded and flew to the corner of the coffee table to eat the snack that was extremely delicious to it.
Xie Sen took the melon skin to the kitchen and scraped off the layer that had been eaten. He washed the rest and put it in a bowl and put it in the fridge.
When he returned to the living room, MeiIn had already wiped the coffee table clean and was putting away his parts.
"What did you do?" Xie Sen asked.
"An unmanned detector."
"Is it similar to the detector on Jade Pearl Island?" Xie Sen was curious.
MeiIn nodded, "I improved it a little. The detection range is longer, and I used an anti-detection and camouflage system to make it harder to be discovered."
Xie Sen did not know much about electronic products, but he felt that it sounded very impressive. He did not hide it and directly praised, "You're amazing!"
The corners of MeiIn's mouth curled up slightly.
The next day, Xie Sen added some watermelon skin when he cooked meat soup in the morning. He found that it was unexpectedly delicious. The smell of meat was gone, and the soup even had a light fragrance of the melon skin.
He ate until he was full and went to the gold medal office to work overtime. Just as he finished, Sun Mao walked over with a teasing expression, "There's a pile of gifts for you at the guard office. I think you should stop working and just resell the gifts."
Xie Sen was helpless. The number of people who were trying to curry favor with him had increased over the past few days. He was annoyed when he heard that people were trying to give him gifts.
Sun Mao took a step closer and whispered, "I heard that you're a plant-type Beast Master. Is that true?"
Xie Sen looked at him and did not answer. Sun Mao understood and smiled, "No wonder you suddenly have so many suitors. No wonder you have such a high affinity with animals." His eyes lit up, "Can you sell me a red pepper?"
"No." Xie Sen refused. He had to save energy to enter the forest.
Sun Mao sighed, "Are you thinking of saving all the fruits for your dowry?"
Xie Sen's mouth twitched, "What the hell?"
"It's just like a resource-type contract beast. You save the fruits of your contract beast from a young age and use it as a dowry when you get married." As he spoke, his eyes were filled with curiosity. He leaned closer and whispered, "I don't know if Manager Yang did this before."
"Manager Yang?" Xie Sen could not help but ask, "What's his contract beast?"
"Long-haired sheep. The clothes made from its fur are expensive and popular. Manager Yang's partner is so lucky." Sun Mao sighed and added, "Of course, your boyfriend is even luckier. The red pepper is an extinct plant. Even the research institute doesn't have it!"
"No wonder they're all chasing you. Marrying you is like marrying a treasure bowl! A treasure bowl that can give birth to a bunch of cubs. "
Xie Sen was speechless, "I'm a male. What's there to give birth to!"
"What's there to be afraid of? I heard that both male and female plant-type Beast Masters can give birth to offspring. That's so great."
"No, I'm not. I'm the kind of male that can't give birth to offspring!" Xie Sen said firmly. He decided not to listen to Sun Mao's nonsense. Who knew what kind of explosive topic he would bring up again.
After work, he contacted Bai Jiao on the way back to his apartment. He wanted to buy the insect repellent and detoxification pills from Bai Jiao.
Bai Jiao heard and asked directly, "You're going to the Huangmang Forest?"
Xie Sen did not hide anything, "Yes."
Bai Jiao said, "What a coincidence. I'm going too. There have been more and more strange reports about the depths of the forest in the past two days. This afternoon, someone came out safely with a fruit. According to the Institute of Botany, it's an extinct herb called wolfberry. I'm very interested in it."
Bai Jiao asked, "Why don't we go together?"
Xie Sen hesitated for a moment, "It's definitely better to have someone who knows medicine with me. But I'm going with MeiIn. I can't make the decision alone. I'll ask him later."
"It's okay." Bai Jiao smiled, "I'll send you the medicine you want. As for the price, I'd prefer a red pepper. I've checked the relevant literature. It has medicinal value."
Xie Sen calculated, "Your medicine will cost at least a few thousand yuan. If you don't think it's a loss, I'll send it to you."
"Thank you." Bai Jiao's voice was filled with excitement.
When Xie Sen returned to the apartment, he saw two people fighting from afar. It was Long Teng and MeiIn. Xu Da was standing not far away. When he saw him, he waved at him.
Xie Sen walked over. Xu Da said, "Long Teng went for special training for a few days. I thought his progress was fast enough. I didn't expect MeiIn to be as good as he is. It's really amazing that he can reach this level as a Rank A contracted beast master."
Xie Sen smiled. He didn't want Xu Da to suspect MeiIn's identity. He praised, "He's been working hard."
Xu Da laughed, "It's good that young people know how to improve themselves. They just need to find a contracted beast. After that, they can improve a lot."
Speaking of this, he sighed, "Sigh, I just saw the news a few days ago. During those days, I was studying potatoes and chili, so I didn't pay attention to the news." He patted Xie Sen's shoulder, "If you have any problems with money in the future, you can tell me."
Xie Sen politely thanked him for his kindness.
After another 20 minutes, MeiIn and Long Teng finally stopped fighting. The two of them were tied. Long Teng smiled, showing his white teeth. He put his arm around MeiIn's shoulder and said, "You're so good. How do you usually train?"
MeiIn slapped his hand away. He put his hand on it again with a curious look on his face.
Xie Sen answered his question, "MeiIn trains through hunting."
Long Teng tilted his head and looked at MeiIn in realization, "No wonder you're so good at fighting wild beasts." He jumped in front of Xu Da and said, "Grandpa, I want to go hunting too."
After he finished speaking, he quickly said, "That's right! Didn't you ask me to go to the depths of the forest to look for wyverns? I can fight my way there! "He waved his arms as he spoke.
Xu Da slapped the back of his head and said, "Do you know how many kilometers it is from the edge of the wild forest to the center? You're lucky if you can even keep your life for one day. "
Long Teng covered the back of his head and said, "Grandpa, I'm very good!"
"You're quite ignorant." Xu Da didn't hesitate to ridicule him.
"Grandpa," Long Teng was dissatisfied, "I understand."
Xu Da ignored him and quickly followed Xie Sen into MeiIn's apartment. He sat on the sofa and looked at Xie Sen. Xie Sen asked, "Grandpa, what's the matter?"
Xu Da smiled and said, "What did you make for breakfast? I can smell the fragrance. Can you sell me some? "
Xie Sen couldn't help but laugh. What kind of nose is this!
He was thinking about how to fool him when the Tuan Tuan flew to the coffee table in front of him with a nail-sized melon skin in its claws. It threw the melon skin on the coffee table and lowered its head to eat it. Then it spread its wings and said in a low voice, "Tuan Tuan."
Xie Sen's mouth twitched. What does this mean? Tell him that it finished eating?
"Huh?" Xu Da was surprised, "Is this a white-headed eagle?"
Xie Sen said, "It seems so."
"Tuan Tuan Tuan ~" The Tuan Tuan jumped on the table and flew to the refrigerator. Its claws grabbed the refrigerator handle and it turned back and said, "Tuan Tuan ~"
Xie Sen touched his forehead. Does it think that it has a melon skin every day?
"There's no more." He said.
"Tuan Tuan!" The Tuan Tuan flapped its wings and patted the refrigerator door. Obviously, it knew that there was more in the refrigerator.
Xu Da sighed and said, "With this kind of IQ, it's undoubtedly a white-headed eagle." His eyes became eager, "What did it just eat? There should be more in the refrigerator, right? "
Xie Sen was helpless. In the end, he took out the melon skin and gave a small piece to the Tuan Tuan. He reminded it, "This is the last piece. There won't be more in the future."
The Tuan Tuan looked at the melon skin and didn't eat it immediately. Instead, it made a sad "Tuan Tuan" sound.
Xu Da looked at the melon skin and said, "This is a watermelon? I want to buy it! This looks like skin. Where's the melon meat? I want to buy it too? "
MeiIn, who had been silent for a long time, said coldly, "Not for sale!"
Xie Sen was amused. It seemed that MeiIn really liked to eat watermelon.
Xu Da said helplessly, "Then sell me some of the melon skin!"
Xie Sen cut a quarter of the melon skin from the remaining half of the watermelon and sold it to Xu Da. Xu Da held the melon skin with a happy face. Long Teng curiously took a bite and its eyes lit up. "Delicious!"
Xie Sen secretly thought that when he came back from the forest, he would sell the whole watermelon to Xu Da. Long Teng, this child, was too soft-hearted.
Xu Da's goal of eating was achieved. Then, he changed the topic and said, "Have you seen the news about the Huangmang forest? I think this is a good opportunity to find a contract beast. I don't feel at ease letting Ah Teng go alone. If you want to go, bring him along. He's not good at other things, but he's good at fighting. "
Xie Sen thought that the best thing was actually luck.
Long Teng was the main character in the book. Although he was always in danger, he was always able to turn the situation around. Moreover, his ability was constantly improving. His luck was so good that it was explosive.
But thinking about it carefully, according to the time in the book, Long Teng should have gone into the Huangmang forest alone.
Now, everything was different. Xie Sen looked at MeiIn and felt at ease.
Although he knew that MeiIn had not fully recovered and was more sensitive and suspicious than before, MeiIn was still young. He believed that he would get better.
MeiIn happened to look at Xie Sen and noticed his gaze. His expression softened a lot. "You decide."
Xie Sen was a little surprised. Then, he seriously thought about it. He had to rest every eight hours. If it was only him and MeiIn, when he was resting, MeiIn would be the only one to deal with dangerous situations. Moreover, MeiIn would have to take care of him. It was too dangerous.
The forest was so big that it was very likely that they would not be able to find the red energy immediately. It was also inconvenient for two people to take turns keeping watch at night.
"I think it's okay," Xie Sen said. "I contacted Bai Jiao today. He also wants to go. There are many poisonous animals and plants in the forest. It's safer to have a doctor. The four of us can go together."
MeiIn did not have any objections. "I'll listen to you."
Xie Sen said to Long Teng, "We plan to set off on the 26th. Is there a problem?"
"No problem." Long Teng smiled. "We can leave now."
Xie Sen reminded him, "It's better to be prepared." Thinking of Long Teng's character, he said, "You don't have to worry about anything else. Bring more weapons!"
"Alright!" Long Teng raised a big smile, and agreed.
After the discussion, Xu Da and Long Teng left the apartment.
Xie Sen contacted Bai Jiao to explain the situation and tell him the departure time. Bai Jiao smiled and said, "I'm fine with it. I'll come to you guys when the time comes. I'll prepare more medicine in the next few days."
After hanging up, Xie Sen went to prepare dinner. After dinner, he and MeiIn each ate a large piece of watermelon. Both of them were satisfied.
After dinner, Xie Sen asked, "Is there anything else you need to prepare?"
"I'll get it ready." MeiIn looked at him and his eyes fell on his arms. "You should strengthen your arms in the next few days. Wait."
As he spoke, he walked into the bedroom. After a while, he took out a pair of dumbbells, one big and one small. "Use these to practice."
Xie Sen remembered that he had to land on the aircraft and hurriedly nodded. He was still a little worried. Would he be able to practice in a few days?
He took the dumbbells and returned to the bedroom. After thinking for a while, he still felt uneasy. He looked at his remaining energy. There was a total of 33 energy. Three of them were from MeiIn in the morning, and the rest were from work.
He gritted his teeth and exchanged for a two-meter watermelon vine. He carefully plucked the watermelon and ordered the watermelon vine to tie him up and lift him up.
At first, he was very uncomfortable being tied up by the watermelon vine. The watermelon vine would fall apart soon after his feet left the ground. He tried for a long time and finally found a more comfortable position to be hung up. Moreover, the watermelon vine would not fall apart.
If there were any accidents during the landing, he would at least have the ability to save himself.
In the next few days, Xie Sen worked hard to help more contracted beasts so that he could obtain energy from the Beast Master. On the 24th, he had already accumulated 156 energy.
On the morning of the 25th, Xie Sen deliberately woke up earlier than usual. He exchanged for two potatoes and had them double in size. Then, he cut one of them in half and steamed it. He cut the other into potato strips and fried them into french fries.
When MeiIn came out of the bedroom, the whole room was filled with the fragrance of potatoes. He looked at the closed kitchen door and his eyes gradually became gentle.
Xie Sen carefully placed the steamed potatoes side by side into a big plate. He placed the side of the plate facing up, then used his chopsticks to write "Happy Birthday" on it. He even drew a smiley face at the end.
He looked at it and made sure there was no problem. He carried the "potato cake" out of the kitchen. He did not expect MeiIn to be standing at the door. He almost bumped into him.
He stopped in time and smiled as he handed the plate over. "Brother, happy birthday. I wish you happiness every day and good health!"
MeiIn stared at him for a long time. The young man's bright smile was full of sunshine and made him feel warm. This kind of warmth went straight to the bottom of his heart. He could not help but lean over and kiss him on the forehead. "Thank you. I'm very happy."
Xie Sen covered his forehead and stared blankly at the "3 energy" prompt in front of him. He watched as MeiIn carried the plate into the living room.
This... was the Brent Star's thank-you ceremony?
Xie Sen thought about it and felt that this was the only reason that made sense.
