not dead

When the monkey entered the capital city in the car, he asked the gray cat: "Why didn't the boss and Lu Xiaoxiao come back with you?"

"I don't know. The boss just said that he still had something to do and asked us to come back and bring someone to pick him up."

"Boss is not in danger, is he?"

"No."

"That's good."

"Monkey, drive faster. We have to get back to the base quickly. It's too dangerous outside."

"You mean someone is following you?"

"That's not true. We are afraid that our captors will send people out to arrest us if they find out that we are missing."

"You guys sit still, I'm going to start accelerating."

"good."

When Monkey and the others returned to the base, they saw the chaos inside the base, so they asked all the humane squares in the base to gather.

"Chiyi, tell me what you were arguing about just now?" Haimao asked Chiyi.

"Gray Cat, I have a question for you."

"what is the problem?"

"Some people say that Captain Zhang is dead. Is this true?"

"Who did you listen to?" Haimao suppressed his anger and asked Chi Yi after hearing Chi Yi's words.

"Old Wang who delivers supplies."

"Where is Lao Wang now?"

"I don't know. Lao Wang delivers supplies every morning. He will leave immediately after unloading the supplies on the car."

Gray Cat frowned after hearing Chi Yi's words, and then he said to everyone present: "What Lao Wang said are all lies, Captain Zhang is still alive and well, and several of us were rescued by Captain Zhang. The reason Captain Zhang didn’t come back with us is because he had something to do.”

"Hai Mao, are you telling the truth?"

"Of course it's true. You continue to train and go on a mission with me in three days."

"yes."

After the monkey regulated the dormitory, he said to Gray Cat: "Gray Cat, I'm going to catch Lao Wang and ask him why he spread rumors that the boss is dead."

"You're not allowed to go. It's too dangerous outside. If you want to arrest Lao Wang, wait until Lao Wang delivers supplies tomorrow morning."

"Okay, you guys go back to the dormitory and rest quickly. I'll go to the square and keep an eye on them to prevent them from causing trouble again."

"good."

Lu Xiaoxiao and Zhang Xu didn't know what was happening in the base. They were roasting sweet potatoes in the yard and discussing how to leave the village safely.

"The sweet potatoes are ready, I want the biggest one." Lu Xiaoxiao said while using wood to pull the fire.

"I'll get it for you." Zhang Xu saw the little girl looking anxious. He was afraid that the little girl would be burned, so he said to the little girl.

"Remember to get the biggest one for me."

"Um."

After Zhang Xu jumped out of the fire the largest sweet potato, he put the sweet potato aside to cool down, and then continued to take out the sweet potatoes from the fire. He didn't put down the stick until he took out the second largest sweet potato.

The two brothers Wang Meng were speechless when they saw what Zhang Xu and his sister did. They were just two sweet potatoes, what the hell were they?

"What's that look in your eyes?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked immediately after seeing the way the two brothers Wang Meng looked at her and Zhang Xu.

"Nothing, I just wanted to ask if we can pick sweet potatoes?"

"Okay, there are only two sweet potatoes left in the fire. You can choose."

After Wang Meng heard Lu Xiaoxiao's words, he took out the two sweet potatoes from the fire with a stick. When he saw that the sweet potatoes he took out were a lot smaller than Lu Xiaoxiao's, he finally understood Lu Xiaoxiao's words. Why pick the biggest sweet potato?
