Chapter 425: Crushing the Base Ancestor to Death
Meng Ke woke up at noon feeling refreshed. Luo Tian and Qingyou didn't sleep well last night in the unfamiliar environment. When Ouyang Kong held Meng Ke to rest, Luo Tian also came over and snuggled in his wife's arms. Qingyou saw that the positions on the left and right were occupied, so she didn't climb onto the bed to join in the fun.
Just then, his cousin Qinghao came over. Qingyou said in a cold tone, "Don't you have to train today?"
Soldiers at the base are required to complete extensive training every day when they are not on mission or on leave to maintain peak physical fitness.
Qinghao was much older than Qingyou, yet he was extremely nervous around his cousin. He stood straight, his expression tense, and reported everything like a subordinate answering his superior. "My general...in my last dream, he said he'd have time to have a barbecue with everyone, so I came to ask if you're free today."
Qinghao was pushed here by his leaders and comrades. Everyone understood Mengke's intention to refuse at that time, but he couldn't resist the enthusiasm of his comrades, who just wanted to have more contact with the goddess. Qinghao regretted what he said as soon as he said it. He knew what his comrades were thinking, and Qingyou could guess it without even thinking about it.
"Do you think she should have time?"
Qingyou usually doesn't pay attention to marginal figures in the family like Qinghao, but he knows that Mengke gave the credit to this distant cousin when he contributed to the Alliance Star No. 2.
Qingyou's voice was neither hurried nor slow, and no emotion could be heard in it, but Qinghao felt as if a thorn in his back was on edge.
At this time, a small white mushroom jumped out of Qinghao's pocket, used Qinghao's shoulder as a stepping stone, and jumped onto his head. The mutated mushroom was originally less than the size of a fist, but after squatting on Qinghao's head, it expanded to the size of a hat at a speed visible to the naked eye. From a distance, it looked like he was wearing a mushroom cap.
Qingyou had never seen this mutant mushroom, but the message he received said that this mushroom looked similar to Dabai at home, but Dabai was much smarter and could even play games with a light computer. The mutant mushroom in front of him was obviously not as smart as Dabai's personal brother.
Suddenly, the mushroom cap extended its mycelium and quickly rushed towards the room where Meng Ke was resting.
Qingyou's eyes were sharp, and he reached out and grabbed Mushroom's head as fast as lightning.
The mutant mushroom subconsciously attacked Qingyou with mycelium, but was stopped by the mental protection shield on his body.
With a slight force on his hand, the mutant mushroom felt that his entire body was about to break. He struggled by flapping his mycelium, but quickly stopped under Qingyou's increasingly tight force. From a third-party perspective, the mutant mushroom at this time looked like a squid that had lost hope.
Qingyou shook, frightening Qinghao and the guard at the door.
Ahhh! That was their base's sacred object, more important than the base boss, and now it was being held like this. The thought of it made him collapse.
Without waiting for Qinghao to react, the guard reported what happened here to his leader.
When the leader saw the news, he was so frightened that his heart skipped a beat. He was in no mood to continue the meeting and hurried over here.
Ouch! Qinghao's ancestor, if you have any anger, go find his cousin. If it doesn't work, I can drag those brats who instigated Qinghao over and let him vent his anger. Why is he taking his anger out on the little ancestor of the base?
If anything happens to the little ancestor, he will not live anymore!
Qing Hao was also looking at Qing You's hand with fear at this moment, and he almost knelt down in front of his cousin: "Cousin...cousin, you can hit me or scold me if you are angry, but please! Please don't hurt him!"
This is the little ancestor of the entire base. If he is really crushed by his cousin, he dare not imagine what consequences he will face.
Qingyou tilted his head to look at the mutant mushroom in his hand. It was flat and the size of a head. His hands were not that big, so he could only hold half of the head. But even so, it was enough to hold the mutant mushroom.
But after looking at him like this, Qinghao gradually felt a little guilty.
Why? Because there seemed to be some tiny cracks where he pinched it, and these cracks were growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Qingyou cleared his throat twice and secretly loosened the grip on his hand, and the crack finally stopped expanding.
But the base leader who had hurriedly gotten out of the car and rushed to Qingyou saw the cracks at a glance. He was instantly furious and pointed at Qingyou with a red face: "You! You!..."
You haven't been able to utter a complete sentence for a long time.
Ahhh! His heart ached. He was going to die. He wanted to be buried with his little ancestor. They lived and died together, but they would be buried together.
Qingyou, as expected of an excellent commander, quickly calmed the man down and stuffed the mutant mushroom into his arms: "It's fine, just feed it some energy stones and it will be fine."
The leader was so sad that he was about to cry, as if he was holding his own dying child.
Qing Hao had already decided to take all the blame, so he calmed down at this time. He took out a mid-level energy stone and stuffed it into the mutant mushroom mycelium. This was one of his few private possessions. Since he became the guard and breeder of the little ancestor, he had never been rich.
But after I stretched out my hand for a while, the mycelium did not move, and did not curl up and absorb everything quickly as usual.
Qinghao's heart sank to the bottom.
The base leader really cried this time, the kind that was sobbing from the heartache without tears.
"I...I want to hold a grand funeral for our little ancestor. Everyone in the base must attend to see him off..."
A chuckle sounded behind him. "I'm afraid not. There are so many people in the base, and it's so small. If you add too much water, it won't taste like mushrooms."
"Who! Who said they wanted to eat him? I..."
The leader had just shouted a few words when he looked at the person who was speaking, and the words in his mouth were immediately choked.
But he was also a thick-skinned, burly man who flattered himself and complained pitifully, "My little ancestor died tragically! Can't I give him a star burial?"
"It's a success, but it's a bit wasteful."
Meng Ke grabbed the mutant mushroom from the strong man's arms, and the strong man's eyebrows twitched. He wanted to get angry but didn't dare to. What could he do? The little ancestor was given by this ancestor, so how could he be so mean to the little ancestor's mother?
Meng Ke turned over and looked at the mutant mushroom with many cracks on its umbrella head. The mycelium that had been pulled out earlier was drooping and became messy as it turned over.
Qinghao felt distressed when he saw this. He usually ate and slept with this mutant mushroom and really treated him like his son. Now seeing him being crushed to death like this, it would be a lie to say that he was not sad.
Meng Ke was speechless when she saw Qing Hao's expression of despair. She shook the mushroom in her hand, but before she could say anything, the burly leader stretched out his hands with a sad face and asked Meng Ke for them: "He's dead, don't bother him, let him rest in peace!"
Meng Ke disagreed: "Such a big mushroom, and it's a high-quality ingredient. You want to bury it? Isn't it a waste of food?"
The strong man was so distressed that he was about to cry. His eyes followed Meng Ke's ups and downs. "He, he is our little ancestor after all. The whole base has spoiled him for several years and has developed feelings for him. How can we eat him?"
Meng Ke disagreed: "Oh! You can't eat, but I can. I have tableware in my storage. Please sit down and I will cook. Each of you can have some as a snack before dinner."
"no!"
"no!"
Hearing that Meng Ke wanted to eat his little ancestor/son, the base leader and Qing Hao spoke out at the same time to stop him.
Meng Ke didn't listen to them and started cooking right away, and no one could stop her.
The base leader was heartbroken: "How could you do this!"
This is the little ancestor of their base!
Qing Hao didn't dare to attack Meng Ke. He was so anxious that he kept circling around Meng Ke, watching Meng Ke boil water to cook his son.
Ouyang Kong sat down next to Meng Ke, his eyes full of interest: "This mutant mushroom looks very high-grade. I want to eat more later."
Qingyou was a little unhappy when she saw her cousin almost clinging to his wife. When someone turned to him, she pushed him to the nearest seat and said, "Wait! You're going to die anyway, so you might as well have two more bowls."
It was definitely not enough for a few people, so Meng Ke took out the seasonings and prepared to stew the soup.
As the mushrooms were being sliced, hurried footsteps were heard outside, and several voices shouted at the same time: "Spare his life!"
Someone quickly changed their tune: "Spare the mushrooms!"
Meng Ke glanced at the soldiers running in, ignored their fear and anxiety, and prepared to split the mushroom in his hand in half.
The knife fell, and something unexpected happened...
