CHAPTER 337: CHAPTER 317: FINAL INSTRUCTIONS

The conversation ended in such a farce, with Lu Shou struggling not to let Big Dog and Little Dog turn into dog meat.

His abilities were nowhere near enough in front of Lu Xi’an and Yao Wei, so he couldn’t go head-to-head. Instead, he resorted to pleading with tears and snot flowing, then "thud" knelt down, and cried "sob, sob, sob" for a long time, begging the two bosses to let them go, or even exchanging his life for theirs if necessary.

This man who was previously munching on Yang Shuxia’s meat north of Sickness Village was now sobbing. The residents and the dogs of Healing Village were all culprits in softening his heart.

Lu Xi’an and Yao Wei eventually did not harm Big Dog and Little Dog; Lu Xi’an even brought over the husky and the corgi and had a great time petting them.

Having crossed over to this world, he hadn’t petted a dog yet, and now that he’s started, he found it a bit addictive.

While petting the dogs, Lu Xi’an casually taught Lu Shou something—those training methods in the B-type pamphlet. These things could help Lu Shou improve significantly in a short time.

Combining this with the effects of the meat Lu Shou had eaten, would it be possible for him to see a surge in strength in a month and a half, enough to take a bite out of those people in Northern County?

After petting the dogs, Lu Xi’an and Yao Wei got back in the car and drove back to the place where Lu Shou had dug a hole under Yang Shuxia, helping Lu Shou retrieve the tiger and mouse corpses.

In the car, Lu Xi’an stepped on the gas pedal and gripped the steering wheel, sighing constantly: "Do you think I’ve lost my mind? Why bother with him for no reason? I’m neither kin nor friend to Lu Shou and the folks at Healing Village, yet I’m here helping them get food...

"I’m so funny, always thinking about saving some fuel for Lu Shou. He’s going to die in a month and a half, what’s the use of saving him a bit of gasoline?"

Having spent so much time together, Yao Wei had an accurate understanding of Lu Xi’an’s psychology. Hearing what Lu Xi’an said, Yao Wei proactively analyzed for him:

"Because they are good people. They have also become out of place in this world, so you want to help them—even though they’re about to die."

"Really?"

Hearing Yao Wei say that, Lu Xi’an’s mood immediately brightened. This woman truly understood him well.

"Mmm."

Yao Wei nodded, "You are indeed a good person."

Lu Xi’an: "..."

They also took a look at the hyenas, but Gou determined that hyena meat was inedible, so they both left them alone.

Why is hyena meat in this world so special? The ones encountered back in Yubei City were inedible, and now the ones encountered are still inedible.

On the way back to Healing Village with the tiger and mouse corpses, Lu Xi’an tried to get Gou to connect to Institute 923 again. Initially, the signal couldn’t connect, but just when they were near Healing Village, the signal suddenly connected.

"Big bro, big sis! What good stuff have you got again?!"

Luo Ping’s voice immediately came through the RV’s speakers, along with some static, full of excitement and admiration, "You two are really something!

"Really, big bro, big sis, you always succeed wherever you go! It’s truly extraordinary! If only I had your skills, that would be great!"

As he spoke, he called over others, "Shu, Shu! Get everyone over here, big bro and big sis are calling again!"

For some reason, Luo Ping’s chattering voice suddenly felt endearing, with a sense of...nostalgia.

He wanted to tell Luo Ping, "What are you praising for, your big bro and big sis are marked and close to dying," but he held it in.

Lu Xi’an didn’t plan to tell Luo Ping and the others about this matter. He knew that once he mentioned it, Luo Ping and the others would surely react, but he didn’t want to drag them into it.

They had just begun to develop, and everything was thriving. Why let his and Yao Wei’s issues delay their development?

—At this moment, he suddenly understood Lu Shou a bit; Lu Shou’s mindset when driving others away must be similar to his own, right?

"Alright, alright, Luo Ping, stop shouting. We don’t know when the call will cut off, time is tight, let’s cut to the chase."

Lu Xi’an said.

Hearing Lu Xi’an say this, Luo Ping instantly became serious: "Big bro, you speak."

Lu Xi’an took a deep breath, gathered his thoughts, and said: "There are mainly two things, the first thing— we’ve discovered the effects of Fungus Stone on ordinary people.

"You already know about Fungus Stone Soaked Water, it has healing properties. And on the basis of Fungus Stone Soaked Water, if you dilute it at least twenty times, it becomes useable by ordinary people.

"Even for ordinary people, it has the effect of healing injuries, and if someone is on the brink of death, they can survive with it. However, it shouldn’t be able to cure illnesses, you need to check by yourselves."

Luo Ping exclaimed: "It can actually do that?! Who discovered this?! They must be a genius!"

"..."

Lu Xi’an wasn’t sure if Luo Ping was speaking honestly or taking the opportunity to flatter him, but at the moment, it didn’t matter. He continued, "The second thing is to be very cautious in the southern Jiangnan City and Northern County area.

"They are numerous and have mastered special means—by consuming Fungus Stone and the bodies of those who’ve consumed Fungus Stone, they enhance their strength."

Once again, Luo Ping said "It can actually be like this." However, this time there was a hint of bewilderment in his tone.

With extremely brief words, Lu Xi’an briefly explained the situation in Northern County to Luo Ping and also told him about how Xuan Xiaocao used those Flying Ants to repel Northern County, advising Luo Ping to take Liu Hua’s controlled Flying Ants seriously.

Upon hearing Lu Xi’an’s words, Luo Ping couldn’t help but become serious and wanted to inquire more about Northern County’s situation.

But Lu Xi’an didn’t have the time to elaborate. He wanted to give Luo Ping more instructions while the line was still connected.

Thus, he ignored Luo Ping’s words and continued with his thoughts, saying that they should diligently practice the methods in the booklet; it’s very useful, and the effects of enhancing strength are significant. He also said to keep a low profile, focus on strength improvement, and avoid over-expansion before sufficient strength is built.

He also emphasized the importance of education, ensuring everyone takes time to learn, especially children, as they represent the future. There were textbooks in the base, along with the AI Masked Man, invaluable resources to be seized.

Furthermore, there were many things Lu Xi’an wanted to instruct.

He actually wanted to ask how Luo Ping came to be there, how he could read, why his name was different from everyone else’s in this world, and why he had thoughts that didn’t align with this world?

But pressed for time, he couldn’t ask. Maybe after explaining these things, if the line hasn’t disconnected, or perhaps before setting to sea, some other time if the line connects again, he might ask.

But before he could go on, Luo Ping interrupted him.

Luo Ping asked: "Big bro, big sis, did you encounter any danger?! You’re speaking so hurriedly, like giving last words or something?"

Lu Xi’an: "..."

Damn, when did this guy become so sharp?!
