Chapter 237 Returning to the Team, Shen Shuli Turns into a Watermelon
Chapter 237 Returning to the Team, Shen Shuli Turns into a Watermelon
Shen Shuli woke Xie Chengyuan up.
When Xie Chengyuan woke up, his eyes were slightly dazed, but he quickly regained his senses.
He breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that Shen Shuli was unharmed.
"Are you alright? I think I was bitten by something and passed out." Xie Chengyuan explained, quite embarrassed.
He never expected to be so useless, actually falling victim to the virus by accident.
Shen Shuli felt a little guilty and said, "It was probably some kind of poisonous insect. I'm glad you're alright."
She changed the subject and told Xie Chengyuan about the bearded boy.
Xie Chengyuan immediately looked at the other party warily, his thoughts being almost identical to Shen Shuli's.
After all, he possesses the ability to control other people's thoughts through bizarre means, and anyone who sees such a person would keep their distance.
Besides, he had dealt with criminals before.
Shen Shuli used vines to tie the boy up tightly from head to toe to prevent him from causing trouble.
Tenzin: "..."
"Young Master Xie, could you take both of us up with you? I promised him I would take him out."
Xie Chengyuan was reluctant to bring this person along, always feeling that this person was strange.
But she wanted to take him out, and he didn't want to refuse her.
"Hmm." Xie Chengyuan nodded slightly.
"Great, let's go then," Shen Shuli urged.
With one more person this time, Xie Chengyuan suggested carrying Shen Shuli on his back, which would also free up his hands to hold the boy's hand.
The three of them successfully left the valley.
"You can go now." Shen Shuli untied the vines from the boy and urged him to leave.
Tenzin looked aggrieved and said, "I've been so sincere, don't you believe me?"
Shen Shuli and Xie Chengyuan stared at him without saying a word, letting him figure it out himself.
Tenzin left, looking back every few steps, feeling wronged.
Seeing that the person had left, the two breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Xie Chengyuan naturally put his arm around Shen Shuli and said, "Let's go, they must be getting impatient."
It was already noon the next day, and they had been separated from the group for quite some time.
Shen Shuli sighed and said, "Okay, let's go back."
Xie Chengyuan continued to use his lightness skill to travel.
Tenzin hadn't expected the two to leave like that. After taking only a few steps, he saw the direction they had gone and immediately turned around to chase after them.
Unfortunately, he was too slow to catch up with the two of them.
Fortunately, there were many traces left on the ground when the prisoners left. He followed the traces with trepidation, feeling bitter inside.
The two returned to the group and continued their frantic journey.
From last night until now, everyone has not had a drop of water.
Furthermore, all of the Su family's food and other supplies were discarded, leaving them with nothing.
Xie Chengyuan placed Shen Shuli at the back of the group and said, "Remember to have Xue Bufan come to meet me."
Shen Shuli gave him a thumbs up and said, "As expected of the number one playboy in the capital, you are the most fortunate one in the whole team."
Xie Chengyuan's ears turned red involuntarily.
Throughout his exile, he certainly rarely walked on his own two legs.
It’s also a blessing in disguise.
"Father, I'm back!" Shen Shuli shouted.
Upon hearing this, Su Yunhai immediately rushed back to check.
He was panting heavily, looked his daughter up and down, and asked, "Why did you take so long? Were you in danger?"
Shen Shuli felt particularly happy when she thought about what she had gained, and whispered her gains to Su Yunhai.
Su Yunhai was overjoyed that his daughter had made such a great achievement.
But the whole team had been running for more than ten hours, and he was so tired that he couldn't breathe. He bent over, holding his knees with both hands, and gasped for air.
"Father, we're not in any danger for now. Let everyone rest for a while. I'll go find something nearby to replenish everyone's strength," Shen Shuli said.
Su Yunhai was too tired to speak, so he waved to his daughter, indicating that she should make the decision.
Not only was Su Yunhai exhausted, but everyone in the team was desperately trying to escape, and no one was not tired.
After finally stopping, everyone rested in different positions.
As soon as I stopped, an overwhelming fatigue surged through my body; I didn't want to move a single finger or even lift my eyelids.
A feeling of hunger and thirst also came rushing in.
But everyone knows that they have nothing to eat or drink right now, and can only grit their teeth and endure it.
The children and elderly people who had been carried in turns saw that everyone was too tired to move, so they quickly helped find something to eat nearby.
With no water source nearby, fruit is the best solution to quench everyone's thirst and satisfy their hunger.
Shen Shuli left the group and went to a secluded place to find a suitable spot.
Then, I took out a few watermelon vines from my space and laid them on the ground, and used a watering can to evenly sprinkle water on the vines.
With the blessing of the spiritual spring water, the watermelon vines quickly took root in the new place, looking exactly like they grew on their own, and no one would notice anything unusual.
Each watermelon vine is very long, with more than a dozen large watermelons weighing thirty or forty kilograms on it.
There are so many watermelons, enough for everyone to eat their fill.
Clutching two watermelons, she quickly ran back to the group and excitedly shouted to everyone, "Look what I found!"
Most people were too tired to move and looked in Shen Shuli's direction in the most energy-efficient way.
Grandparents and great-grandparents weren't very tired, so they immediately came over to check on them.
"My dear grandson, you found the watermelon!" Old Man Shen was so excited that he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
Shen Shuli smiled and replied, "Yes, Grandfather, I found a large patch of watermelon vines behind us, and they're full of watermelons this big!"
Upon hearing that there was food, everyone immediately struggled to stand up; even if they couldn't eat it, they could at least quench their thirst by looking at it.
"I'll cut these two for you first, then I'll pick the rest later."
Shen Shuli took out a dagger from her waist, neatly cut the pieces into even sizes, and gave one piece to each of the six elders from both families.
Then the family lineage was divided according to the seniority of the Su and Shen families.
Two watermelons weren't enough to go around, so Shen Shuli called out to those who were willing to move, "There are plenty of watermelons ahead. If you can still move, come with me, let's go and carry them back together."
Upon hearing this, everyone felt as if their bodies were filled with energy, and many immediately followed behind Shen Shuli.
Especially children.
They all followed Shen Shuli excitedly.
The watermelon was too big for the children to lift, so Shen Shuli didn't let them try, to avoid breaking it and wasting it.
Soon.
All the watermelons were carried back.
Shen Shuli was in charge of cutting the pieces, ensuring they were all the same size so that everyone could get two pieces.
Xue Bufan had never eaten such a delicious watermelon before; he felt he would never forget the taste.
Perhaps it was because he had never encountered such a desperate situation in his life.
Therefore, we cherish the food that is hard to come by.
He didn't mind at all, and even swallowed the ultra-thin watermelon rind.
Not only Xue Bufan, but everyone was reluctant to waste the watermelon rinds, as they not only tasted good but also made them feel full.
Su Yunhai and Shen Yuehua knew that these gossips came from their spatial dimension, but they hesitated to expose their daughter.
"Baby, I finally have some strength back! Thank you, my darling~"
Mu Wanjun finally had a chance to talk to Shen Shuli. After eating the watermelon and regaining some strength, she immediately came over to talk to her.
