Chapter 1652: Grubbing and Scrabbling…
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Eat two then,” Qiao Mu deadpanned.
In order to carry as many water sacks as possible when they set out, they had brought less food in comparison.
The little fatty took out a bag of white mantou without filling from his bundle and grubbed out two.
He gave one to Qiao Mu and Qi Xuanxuan. As for the other one, he planned to split it into thirds for him, Duanmu Qing, and Ma Ta to eat!
Qiao Mu: …
Why was she unable to look straight at this sight?
That small mantou was only the size of one’s palm. It was barely enough for two girls to split, let alone three grown men!
Qiao Mu could not help but be at a loss for words.
But, for the time being, she did not plan to take out food and water from Paradise Planet.
After all, they had come to take a trial in the Lava Mountain Range, not take a vacation! Unless it was absolutely necessary, it was better to persevere and temper their will as Ma Ta said!
The little fatty ate his third of a mantou with relish.
Qiao Mu temporarily gave up thoughts of furtively adding to their meals.
From the little fatty’s miserly behavior of splitting a single mantou between three people…
He was probably thinking of splitting that bit of food into who knew how many portions…
But speaking of which, if the little fatty didn’t hold back from eating, he would be able to finish that paltry bag of mantou in one day.
Yet he was planning to make that measly bit of food last seven days!
Qi Xuanxuan had not prepared anything beforehand. She had only taken out her normal bottle of water and a bag of pastries from her inner world to carry on herself.
She couldn’t help but feel sympathy seeing three adult men pitifully sharing a single mantou.
She tilted her head in contemplation, after which she grubbed out two pastries from her bag.
After handing one piece to the three men, she and Qiao Mu split the other piece.
Qiao Mu simply didn’t know what else to say watching the little fatty and Qi Xuanxuan’s identical miserly manner.
After recharging with food and water, the group of five planned to set out to find level-two spiritual beasts.
Inside this Lava Mountain Range, all one could basically see were only red boulders.
“Today is the first day! Our strength is most abundant at this time.” Duanmu Qing analyzed, “I think that our target today should be to hunt at least three level-two spiritual beasts.”
Ma Ta and the others all nodded.
Yet the little fatty gave a guileless chuckle, “But right now our biggest question is, where can we find those level-two spiritual beasts? If we just aimlessly wander around the Lava Mountain Range, we’ll deplete our own strength first instead!”
Qiao Mu blinked before she spoke up with a light cough, “Actually, I have a permanent solution. But, even though the method is good, the actual process may be a bit dangerous. It just depends if you are willing to take on this risk?”
Duanmu Qing was stunned. He turned to look at Qiao Mu and asked uncontrollably, “What plan do you have? If you tell us, we can all discuss it together.”
Qiao Mu looked at him and then said with a nod, “Well, I can concoct a kind of medicinal powder to attract mystic beasts. But the amount needs to be controlled. The thing is that even I am not sure as to the suitable amount to use.”
“Because, cough, cough.. If too much medicinal powder gets scattered, it might attract all the mystic beasts in this area. I’m afraid we won’t be able to handle it at that time!”
