Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food

Chapter 624: Chapter 258: Reorganizing Han Xiangman’s Team_2

Every day during lunch break, those who didn’t go mining would come over and play a couple of rounds.

Sometimes, two people would play chess, while there were over a dozen people behind them pointing and commenting.

Even Uncle Ge from Han Xiangman’s team often came over to play a couple of rounds.

Liang Yuan smiled and nodded, saying, ”You guys go ahead and play; I’m looking for your Captain Han. Where is she?”

”Captain Han is probably in the woods.”

Liang Yuan was surprised: ”It’s raining, and she’s not out hunting. What’s she doing in the forest?”

”Captain Han doesn’t like staying in the cave; she feels suffocated. She prefers being in the woods and even built a stone house there,” Old Niu said.

Liang Yuan nodded slightly and smiled, ”Alright, I’ll go find her.”

Saying that, Liang Yuan walked towards the forest that Niu Daming had pointed out.

Entering the forest, he saw that indeed there were quite a few stone houses built here, not just one or two, but at least a dozen.

It seems that many of Han Xiangman’s people live here.

As Liang Yuan walked over, he saw Luo Hongmian selecting various plants and placing them in categories under the eaves of the house.

Seeing this, he couldn’t help but laugh, ”Xiaoluo, where did you gather so many plants?”

”Oh, Mr. Liang, what brings you here?” Luo Hongmian looked up and, seeing it was Liang Yuan, she immediately smiled and said, ”These were all picked up on our way back from hunting. We don’t know if they’re edible, so we plan to take them to the Fire Bamboo Forest to have Captain Song and the others test them.”

”If they’re edible, it would mean discovering new edible mutant plants, which could be worth a lot of points.”

Liang Yuan then remembered that Song Wen and her team had indeed issued a long-term task in the mission hall, which included bringing back samples of possibly edible plants for testing.

If a new edible plant was discovered and confirmed, a considerable number of points would be rewarded.

So, most of the hunting teams, when they go out, not only hunt mutant beasts in the forest but also specifically collect plants that look edible.

Of course, whether they are edible or not, they still need to be tested to confirm if they’re not toxic.

As for how to test them, currently, there are no professional instruments. Luckily, the man-eating Plum Blossom Pigs and Fire Cloud Rabbits from Meihai Garden are still around.

These mutant plants would be fed to them first. If they don’t die, then they’d have Wang An try them.

Wang An has a healing superpower, so even if he gets poisoned, he wouldn’t die.

Now, the team refers to Wang An as the human testing machine, and Zhao Kai and Wu Ying joke that he’s the ”Poison Detection Master.”

Yang Shenmin also values Wang An highly and specifically requested Wang An and Tang Ying to assist him.

Thinking of this, Liang Yuan couldn’t help but laugh and shake his head as he asked Luo Hongmian, ”Where is your captain?”

”In the house, I’ll take you there.”

Luo Hongmian led the way, passing by two stone houses, and Xia Ming and Gao Li came out to greet Liang Yuan.

Liang Yuan responded with a smile and finally arrived at Han Xiangman’s stone house.

Luo Hongmian called out, ”Sister Xiangman, Mr. Liang is here to see you.”

Inside, there was a splashing sound, like water splashing.

Liang Yuan was curious but did not use his spiritual power to probe.

Then he heard Han Xiangman say, ”Just a moment.”

Soon, she came over to open the door.

She was wearing black jeans with high boots that reached above her knees.

Her upper body was dressed in a sleek black long-sleeved shirt paired with a brown men’s jacket.

The jacket seemed a size too big, with the cuffs having been trimmed by her.

Her features were very attractive, especially her eyes, with sharp brows and a kind of heroic spirit one might associate with a man.

Her features were also quite defined, with thin red lips and a high nose bridge, giving off an overall aura of efficiency.

Liang Yuan smiled and said, ”Miss Han, I have something I’d like to discuss with you. Is now a good time?”

Han Xiangman nodded upon hearing this and said, ”Of course, please come in.”

Luo Hongmian looked at the two of them and, with sensible discretion, said, ”Mr. Liang, Sister Xiangman, I’ll be going back now.”

Liang Yuan smiled and said, ”Thank you, Xiaoluo.”

”Hehe, bye-bye.”

Luo Hongmian left, and Liang Yuan entered the stone house.

The entire stone house wasn’t big, divided into three areas: a wash area, a bedroom, and a combined living room and kitchen.

The so-called kitchen was just an iron pot, a stone stove, and a chimney made from a Fire Bamboo tube.

The living room only had a wooden table and a few wooden stools, everything appeared quite simple.

”My place is a bit spartan. Please make yourself comfortable, Mr. Liang, while I pour you some water.”

Han Xiangman noticed Liang Yuan surveying the house and felt a bit embarrassed, then went to pour some water.

Soon, she came over with a cup of water and said, ”This was boiled earlier, but without a thermos, it’s cooled down. Sorry about that.”

Liang Yuan shook his head and smiled, ”We are all superpower users; this is no big deal.”

”So, what brings you here, Mr. Liang?” Han Xiangman, being straightforward, got right to the point.

Liang Yuan smiled and said, ”It’s nothing significant, really. I just wanted to ask if you have any plans moving forward?”

Han Xiangman was taken aback but quickly understood that Liang Yuan was likely looking to reclaim the supervisory rights of the mining area.

They had only been managing it temporarily.

Han Xiangman hesitated for a moment but then made up her mind and said, ”Mr. Liang, we’ve had the good fortune to come to Yangshan and befriend you. We are truly grateful. I’d like to ask, if we intend to join the Fire Bamboo Forest Shelter and become part of Yangshan, would you accept us?”

Liang Yuan’s smile widened upon hearing this and said, ”Miss Han, you are being too polite. If you wish to stay, I would be more than happy to welcome you.”
