Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 259: Chapter 230: The 4 People Finally Meet

The Silver King catapulted forward and began weaving through the jungle at an incredibly high speed.

”Ah!” Qi Xuefei hugged Li Wenxi’s waist tightly, exclaiming at the speed she hadn’t felt since arriving in this world, ”It’s so fast!”

Even with three people on its back, the Silver King could now reach speeds of up to 80 kilometers per hour. This wasn’t the flat, open speed of 80 kilometers on a highway, but rather in a jungle filled with trees!

Darting left and right among countless trees, this experience was even more thrilling than a roller coaster.

Every time it seemed like the Silver King would crash into a tree trunk ahead, it gently sidestepped, perfectly avoiding the trunk, preventing Xu Xin and the others on its back from getting hurt by brushing against it.

”Haha, how is it, Sister Xuefei? Isn’t riding the Silver King exhilarating!”

Though Li Wenxi had experienced it many times before, and sat at the front feeling an even stronger sense of thrill, she was still very excited at the moment.

Yet, she listened to Xu Xin and held tightly onto Xu Xin’s waist without letting go or lifting her head, just shouting a sentence to Qi Xuefei behind her.

”Isn’t this... a bit too exhilarating!”

Qi Xuefei looked fearfully at the scene rapidly retreating around her.

She wasn’t really fond of this kind of thrilling experience.

She was the type who never rides roller coasters at amusement parks. She wanted to ask Xu Xin to slow down but couldn’t bring herself to speak, so she tightly closed her eyes.

Soon, in just a dozen minutes, they had arrived under Qi Xuefei’s treehouse.

This treehouse was planted by a riverside. This river was much wider than the stream on Xu Xin’s side, but its flow was much slower, looking very calm. Due to the second phase, only a few very small fish were swimming in the clear river water.

Ji Chaoyang was leaning against the treehouse trunk at this moment, checking the screen projected from his watch, next to him was his handsome Bai Ma, munching on dry grass on the ground.

Beside the treehouse sat a woman who appeared somewhat petite, likely the survivor from the treehouse in Area 187 to the east.

”You guys arrived so quickly,” Ji Chaoyang straightened up and looked at Xu Xin flipping off the wolf’s back with some surprise, ”Didn’t you... just retrieve the treehouse core a dozen minutes ago? What, did you come over without digging out the seed?”

From here, he could clearly see the lushness of the western treehouse; it had just disappeared a dozen minutes ago, so he inferred that Xu Xin and the others would continue to dig for the treehouse seed, which would take at least half an hour.

Seeing them come so fast, Ji Chaoyang was a bit surprised.

”We’ve dug it out, all handed over to Qi Xuefei.” Xu Xin walked up to Ji Chaoyang, ”We have new tools.”

The woman sitting on the ground also lifted her head to glance at him, then lowered her head again, saying nothing more.

”Hmm?” Keke ran up to the woman, tilting her little head as she looked at her.

Behind, Li Wenxi and Qi Xuefei also climbed off the Silver King’s back.

”Ugh...” Qi Xuefei had no feelings for corpses, but at this moment she was dizzy, clutching her mouth, and wanted to vomit.

”Ah! Sister Xuefei, are you alright?” Li Wenxi supported Qi Xuefei, asking worriedly.

She hadn’t expected Qi Xuefei to get dizzy from the wolf ride.

”...I’ll never ride your wolf again... ugh...” Qi Xuefei dry-heaved again, her eyes moist.

On the Silver King’s back, with the bumps all the way and such high speed, she once again experienced a feeling of carsickness and seasickness that she hadn’t felt in a while.

”This...” Xu Xin also turned around to look, seeing Qi Xuefei’s state, feeling a bit embarrassed, ”Why didn’t you let me slow down?”

Because Li Wenxi was extremely adaptable to the Silver King, and even found it very thrilling, he thought Qi Xuefei would be similar, so didn’t slow down and let the Silver King rush over at the fastest speed.

”I...” Qi Xuefei was speechless, she didn’t know she would get so dizzy, and when she felt nauseous, half the journey had already passed, so she couldn’t shout to make them stop halfway.

Ji Chaoyang stepped forward and took out a little square cloth from his pocket, handing it to the bent-over Qi Xuefei, saying softly: ”Are you okay.”

”...Thank you.” Qi Xuefei took the cloth and gently wiped her mouth, straightening up after a moment, showing a somewhat reluctant smile to Ji Chaoyang, ”Thank you... You must be Ji Chaoyang?”

”Yes, it’s me.” Ji Chaoyang extended his hand and shook hands with Qi Xuefei.

”You look even younger than Xu Xin. The two strongest in our [Explorers], both younger than me by so much.” Qi Xuefei was also fooled by Ji Chaoyang’s appearance and sighed.

Li Wenxi and Xu Xin exchanged a glance, both laughed.

Ji Chaoyang also smiled a bit awkwardly.

”What’s wrong?” Qi Xuefei asked the two with some confusion.

”Sister Xuefei, don’t be fooled by his face!” Li Wenxi laughed and said, ”He’s 27 this year, a year older than you! Besides, he has tons of work experience, he’s already quite the seasoned social person.”

”Ah?” Qi Xuefei was suddenly stunned, looking at Ji Chaoyang with wide eyes and an expression of surprise, ”27 years old? I thought...”

She thought Ji Chaoyang looked as if he were only eighteen or nineteen, he appeared so young.

”...Sorry.” Qi Xuefei said apologetically.
