However, running is impossible.
Just as Niba was about to move, an electric current hit his feet, causing him to shrink back in fright.
Mu Tang used her hands and feet to climb onto the mud. As soon as her hands touched the mud, her collar tightened and she was firmly grasped by Lu Yan!
"Where are you going?" Lu Yan's cold voice sounded from behind.
A chill ran down Mu Tang's back, and she shrank her neck with a sad face and stopped moving.
Next to them, Ren Yu and Lin Wanwan were holding the bowl that Lu Yan was holding just now, and the other was holding a spoon. They looked at each other in confusion.
Lu Yan took a deep breath and saw that Mu Tang had accepted her fate and no longer planned to run away, so he let go of his hand holding her collar. Before he could speak, Mu Tang turned around sharply and hugged his waist tightly:
"I haven't been out for a long time, so I lost track of time while playing. I will definitely pay attention next time!"
Niba behind him also whimpered twice, his ears twitching uneasily, and he wagged his tail and looked at Lu Yan in a fawning manner.
Just as Lu Yan was about to lift Mu Tang out of his arms, he paused. He lowered his head and looked silently at Mu Tang hiding in his arms. He rubbed her face to please her and refused to come out with his face buried in his face.
Niba looked at his master, thought for a moment and moved the dog's head towards him.
But its head was bigger than Mu Tang's entire body, and it was impossible for it to be completely buried in Lu Yan's arms like Mu Tang.
After thinking about it, he imitated his master and raised his huge dog's head to rub Lu Yan hard!
Lu Yan was caught off guard and staggered, but he didn't fall directly to the ground!
Niba originally wanted to act coquettishly, but now he realized that his act of coquettishness was not successful and instead caused trouble. He quickly took a few steps back and hid behind Ren Yu and Lin Wanwan to watch Lu Yan quietly.
Seeing this scene, Ren Yu and Lin Wanwan finally couldn't help but laugh out loud, and then they both laughed together, getting louder and louder.
But they didn't dare to laugh too much. They could only laugh and carefully look at Lu Yan's face. They wanted to endure it but couldn't help it. Both of their faces were twisted into a strange expression, which was extremely funny.
Lu Yan twitched the corner of his mouth, unable to keep a straight face even if he wanted to, and sighed, lowering his hand to hold Mu Tang's hand:
"Just come back and pay attention to the time next time."
Mu Tang raised his head suddenly and looked at Lu Yan in surprise:
"You won't scold me?"
Lu Yan had helplessness on his face, but he pretended to be fierce:
"So, you still want to be scolded?"
Mu Tang shook his head quickly.
Lu Yan touched her head.
In fact, Lu Yan hadn't decided whether to teach her a lesson tonight, but even if Ren Yu and Lin Wanwan hadn't deliberately interrupted her, he most likely wouldn't have taught Mu Tang a lesson.
After all, he is now constantly reminding himself to put himself in the right position and not to criticize her as much as before for the smallest things.
Mu Tang took two steps and then stopped. Lu Yan looked back at her.
Mu Tang hesitated for a moment, then looked at Lu Yan expectantly:
"Lu Yan, hehehe, is that crucian carp delicious?"
Lu Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he had some evil thoughts and nodded:
"tasty."
Mu Tang's eyes lit up and he said quickly:
"Then, then I..." Do I still have a role?
Lu Yan smiled sullenly in his heart, pretending to be regretful on his face:
"It's a pity that you came back late and there are no more fish."
"...Huh?" Mu Tang puffed up his face, disappointment written all over his face.
Behind him, Niba's ears drooped, his tail stopped swinging, and he lay on the ground with the same loss.
Ren Yu watched this scene with excitement, and never lowered his open mouth. Lin Wanwan couldn't see Mu Tang's aggrieved look, glared at Ren Yu, and walked over quickly:
"Okay... Lu Yan teased you, how could he not keep it for you?"
"Really?!" Mu Tang suddenly became energetic and looked at Lin Wanwan with bright eyes.
"Really, come on!" Lin Wanwan greeted and walked into the house first.
Mu Tang couldn't wait to look at Lu Yan. Lu Yan finally couldn't help but curl up his lips, and finally led her and her group into the house, leaving Ni Ba outside to stare.
Crucian carp is small to begin with, and even this large one only makes a small pot of soup.
A few bowls are enough for each person, and there are about two bowls left, all of which are given to mud.
Although these two bowls of soup were like drinking two drops of water to Niba, they could barely taste the soup. Niba was very satisfied. After drinking it, he happily ran to the corner of the yard to sleep.
Lin Wanwan thought it was quite strange. Most of the crucian carp were wild. Nowadays, most of the water sources are polluted in the last days. Where did the crucian carp come from?
"This is the new cultivation result of the base." Lu Yan said.
Lieutenant General Lu was looking for him tonight just for this matter.
This crucian carp was cultivated by the base using live fish, but it is difficult to raise crucian carp at home. In addition, their conditions are not very good, and many of them died during the cultivation.
There were very few left, sometimes only a hundred or so at most, which couldn't afford to feed the entire base.
The experimental department of the base took time out of their busy schedule to obtain hormones in order to increase fish production, but the effect was not very good.
Lu Yan smiled bitterly. Before the apocalypse, people would reject hormones without even thinking about them. After the apocalypse, they would rely on these things to induce labor.
Also wanting to use hormones are some planted crops. As long as the crops are ripened by wood-type superpowers, they are highly toxic to ordinary people. Even superpowers, as long as they are not wood-type superpowers, will be poisoned. The possibilities are very high.
Therefore, we must not give up the idea of promoting supernatural powers.
Lieutenant General Lu was indeed ill and sought medical treatment urgently. He thought of this method because he couldn't find any other way to quickly increase food supply.
After Mu Tang finished drinking the soup, he sat on the stool in a daze for a long time, and then said something surprising:
"Lu Yan, do you love me?"
When Lu Yan heard this question, he thought he heard it wrong for a moment. He waited until Mu Tang asked it a second time before he was sure what he heard.
Mu Tang tilted her chin, raised her little face, and looked at him eagerly.
Lu Yan lowered his head to meet her eyes, his Adam's apple moved up and down a few times, and after a while he spoke, his voice was hoarse and low, and faintly trembling:
"like."
Mu Tang's eyes moved slightly and met Lu Yan's focused eyes, which were gentle and forbearing.
My heart trembled, as if something was flowing in. It was so hot that my face turned red:
"Then...can I kiss you?"
Lu Yan was stunned for a moment. Mu Tang had already stood up from the chair, tiptoeing around Lu Yan's neck and touching his lips.
It wasn't the first time they kissed, they had happened before.
But this was the first time that Mu Tang felt like this. Her heart was hot and shy, and she wanted to escape but not separate.
Lu Yan lowered his head and held her waist, their lips locked together.
In the chaos, Lu Yan heard Mu Tang's voice as soft as a mosquito's moan, feeling emotional and confused:
"Lu Yan, I think I love you too."
