"Judging from this, tomorrow's morning exercise can be canceled." Shen Muyu muttered to himself while chopping ribs. The big white dog beside him seemed unaffected, simply wagging its tail and following Shen Muyu step by step.
"Don't rush, don't rush, it'll be ready to eat in a bit." Shen Muyu wiped her hands and patted Da Bai, then walked to the incubator and plucked some lettuce leaves.
The lettuce had just sprouted and looked like bean sprouts, tender and green. Since Da Bai doesn't eat vegetables, Shen Muyu didn't pick many; she let the rest continue to grow.
With a few sesame seeds sprinkled on the sweet and sour pork ribs, Shen Muyu's dinner was ready.
Big White almost drooled when it saw the food in the bowl, but it still restrained itself, waiting for Shen Muyu's command so that it could conquer the food bowl!
"Let's eat, Big White." Shen Muyu said to Big White after pouring the chilled soda water into a glass.
The man and the dog devoured the food like a whirlwind; relying solely on those few bites of dry bread for energy today was truly insufficient.
After cleaning up the dishes, Shen Muyu browsed the mall and then went to sleep. Of course, before going to sleep, she sprayed scented spray around the car, knowing that given the organizer's personality, there was a high probability of a rat infestation tonight.
Sure enough, while Shen Muyu was sleeping soundly, a swarm of enormous rats came rushing in from afar. Their numbers and size were far greater than those from the first night.
Little A discovered the mouse but didn't wake Shen Muyu immediately. If the scent spray could fool them, there would be no need to wake their owner.
Although the rat seemed to have undergone a second mutation, it still couldn't escape the effects of the scent spray and went straight ahead.
Shen Muyu woke up naturally the next morning. She opened the car window to look at the outside situation and then lay back down. The air was really not good for exercising, not because she was lazy.
Shen Muyu only stretched and sat up after Xiao A's voice rang out.
Since there was plenty of time, Shen Muyu cooked a congee with preserved egg and lean pork for her and Da Bai. The preserved eggs were taken from the box earlier; there were only three in total, and she put them all in. Of course, the congee had to be thick.
After putting away the washed dishes, Shen Muyu began her exploration for the day.
Since the fork in the road, the probability of encountering high-level resource boxes has increased. Of the five resource boxes Shen Muyu collected in one morning, three were bronze-level.
However, the resource boxes are now located in increasingly remote areas, no longer placed openly in the middle of the road as before. Now, if drivers are even slightly careless, they will miss a few.
Seeing that it was almost time, Shen Muyu parked the car and got out with the resource box in her arms. Because the air quality was so bad today, she had only gotten out of the car quickly, grabbed the resource box, and left, planning to open it together later.
The two wooden boxes were nothing special, just some basic materials and food. The bronze box, however, contained a few gems and a four-piece bedding set, but they weren't needed for the time being.
"Big White, is there anything alive inside this?" Shen Muyu asked, pointing to the only bronze box on the ground. Big White had been calling to it the whole time.
Big White stuck out its tongue and nodded.
Upon seeing this, Shen Muyu chopped open the box and retreated a considerable distance. It took quite a while before the box was pushed open from the inside.
Before Shen Muyu could react, a figure rushed towards her, and Shen Muyu instinctively fired her gun.
The figure turned and dodged to the side. Only then did Shen Muyu see what it looked like; it was a tiger.
However, this tiger was not very big and looked like it was not yet an adult, but its instantaneous launching force was terrifying, so fast that Shen Muyu could hardly see it.
It's obviously not scientific to use a car to crash into such an agile athlete, since Shen Muyu can't yet achieve perfect harmony between man and car, and would appear clumsy in such a large space.
But if we don't get rid of it quickly, this creature is very clever and might suddenly open the car door and get in by itself, which would only make things more dangerous.
"Big White, step back a little," Shen Muyu said to Big White beside him, his gaze fixed on the little tiger that was constantly moving in front of him.
Da Bai ignored Shen Muyu's words, let out a howl and pounced. It couldn't bite the previous lizard, so surely it could bite this one too. It was determined to show its master how powerful it was!
Shen Muyu's heart skipped a beat when he saw the figure darting out from the side. He immediately ran over to try and distract the tiger.
The tiger was excited when it saw the big white creature pouncing on it and went to meet it. The two beasts clashed and separated immediately. The tiger's left foreleg was bitten by the big white creature, but the big white creature was unharmed and jumped to a stop behind it.
Seeing this, Shen Muyu stopped and retreated with her gun in hand. She hadn't expected Da Bai to be so strong. After all, in the bizarre dungeon, Da Bai had only roared a few times and hadn't actually fought head-on.
The tiger seemed stunned by the blow, standing there somewhat dazed.
Big White wouldn't miss such a good opportunity, and immediately pounced forward again with a kick of its hind legs.
The tiger was caught off guard and had also injured its leg, making it no match for the white tiger. After only a few moves, the white tiger bit its throat and fell to the ground, where it remained motionless.
Big White strode over to Shen Muyu with an arrogant gait, tilting its head back and wagging its tail, as if showing off how powerful it was.
Shen Muyu put away his gun and patted the dog's head hard. "Dabai, how are you so amazing!"
Big White's explosiveness and jumping ability are much better than the tiger from before, making him a truly essential bodyguard for home and travel.
Seeing Shen Muyu's delighted expression, Da Bai looked smug, as if to say that it was nothing and that Brother Bai would protect her.
After playing around with the dog for a while, Shen Muyu stepped forward and sent the tiger image to Su Bai via a link. He figured they should make good use of this free resource.
Besides the tiger, there was only one card left in the box, which Shen Muyu scanned.
Shen Muyu narrowed his eyes as he looked at the card. Was this a plan to have people he knew meet up with him? He wondered if they would encounter another fork in the road after they met up.
Shen Muyu didn't plan to use the card himself, but estimated it could fetch a good price, so he casually stuffed it into his backpack.
Back in the car, Shen Muyu drank a bottle of water. He had been outside for too long, and although he had tied his clothes up, his throat was still very sore.
