Reborn in the end of the world, I scavenged in the empty city and bought for free

Xiaoli directly hit Cai Xing's head, making the atmosphere on the scene suddenly tense. Fortunately, the other members of the Xiaohe Guild nearby were fast enough to stop Xiaoli when the second stick came down.

Hearing the people next to her calling Cai Xing's name, Xiaoli shook her wrist and threw the stick directly to the ground, looking at Liao Yunyun like a child who had gotten into big trouble.

Liao Yunyun could only smile bitterly and pull Xiaoli aside, trying to calm her down for the time being and not to scare the child anymore.

"Sister Yunyun, is he really Sister Xiaomin's brother?" Xiaoli's voice was weak and she looked nervously through the crowd at Cai Xing who was being helped to sit on a chair.

Cai Xing seemed to notice her gaze and suddenly raised his head to look at her. There was no blame in his eyes, but rather some helplessness.

Liao Yunyun saw the exchange of glances between the two and had to hold back her laughter as she said, "It's hard to discourage you, but he is indeed Cai Xing, Xiao Min's younger brother, and the eldest son of the Cai family."

"This has been enough to hit me hard. I live in someone else's house and eat and drink for free, but now you've beaten up someone's family. I've gotten into big trouble, what should I do?" Xiaoli's tone was already starting to become tearful as she spoke.

Gu Tongwan probably understood what happened. He glanced at Cai Xing who still had the energy to argue with his teammates, and said to Xiaoli, "It's okay, it's just a minor injury. You should apologize to him later."

Cai's mother walked up to Cai Xing with a stern face and checked him from head to toe. She only noticed that his forehead was slightly swollen. She also saw that the courtyard door was tightly closed, so she twisted her eyebrows and pricked Cai Xing's ears and began to blame him: "You little bastard, did you climb over the wall without knocking again? You even scared the girl. I think you really deserve this beating!"

Cai's father, who was standing nearby, picked up his welding cigarette and started puffing when he saw that his son was fine. He even added insult to injury by saying, "I think Xiaoli didn't hit him lightly with that blow. He should be taught a few more lessons."

Cai Xing was left speechless by his parents' "mixed-male and female" attack. His teammates beside him couldn't help but look at him with a teasing look. After all, when he was on a mission outside, he was always at the front line and was decisive in killing mutant beasts. But today he didn't expect to fall into the hands of a little girl.

He originally saw a pretty girl who was his type, and he also knew that there were some guests coming to his house recently, so he wanted to tease her. However, he didn't expect that she was a hot temper and started fighting after just a few flirtations.

"You are my biological mother. Why don't you care at all when I was beaten?" Cai Xing couldn't help but ask a soul-searching question.

"Come on, if you didn't want to tease the girl, you would have been beaten. Besides, this injury is not as serious as our fists. Don't play the victim."

"Yes, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. I was just looking at you..." Xiaoli thought about apologizing, but her hesitant look made Cai Xing impatient.

"Look at me, what?"

"You looked like a thief and I thought you were going to bully Sister Yunyun, so I attacked you." Xiaoli said in one breath and immediately turned her head away.

Suddenly, he heard the teammates' amusing laughter. Cai Xing couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. He looked at Xiaoli with resentment. He knew that this girl had bad words to say!

After the misunderstanding was resolved, everyone revealed their identities. It turned out that the people from Xiao He Guild had sneaked down from the back mountain, and the reason they didn't go through the village entrance was entirely because of Song Bo's "tip-off."

The smile on Song Bo's face gradually faded, and his tone became cold: "The camp chief and the people from the [Against the Wind Guild] have colluded with other camps and have already planned to attack this place. At present, they are trying to control the entrances and exits, just in case someone goes out and contacts the Hunter Association."

This time, Group 3 and Group 6 of the Xiaohe Guild sent out a total of fifteen people, two of whom were seriously injured, and the others suffered varying degrees of minor injuries. Cai Xing was not only a member of the Xiaohe Guild, but also a member of the security team. After receiving the news that someone from the guild was missing, he immediately led people to the forest thirty kilometers outside the camp to search for the person.

Except for Ling Hai who separated from them on the way back and whose whereabouts are temporarily unknown, Wen Yiyu returned with them.

Originally, it was thought that the leader of Group 3, Wen Yiyu, was a tough guy. After all, everyone in the camp knew where Wen Yiyu came from. He was already well-known in the hunter circle before joining the Xiaohe Guild. Although he was only at Level B, he was able to fight with Level A psychics for dozens of rounds, and there was even a trend of a draw at one point. So many people thought that Wen Yiyu might have hidden his strength.

However, it was not until I met him in person that I realized what it meant to be as the name suggests. Wen Yiyu was 1.75 meters tall, fair-skinned, and had a scholarly air. After asking around, I found out that he was a high school teacher before the end of the world. As for how he later became such a feared ruthless person, it was all thanks to a lot of setbacks and experiences.

Wen Yiyun was very excited when he saw Liu Feng. After knowing what Chen Ni had done, he was so angry that he almost rushed to find him to settle the score. This hot temper made Liu Feng slap his thigh anxiously, "You are such a reckless person. Haven't you suffered enough at his hands over the years?"

Fortunately, Wen Yiyun more or less listened to Liu Feng. After all, Liu Feng was not only his benefactor but also his master. If Liu Feng had not picked him up and taken care of him when he was seriously injured on the way, Wen Yiyun would have died in the suburbs and his body would have been fed to the wolves.

"When can you change your temper? In terms of strength, you are stronger than Chen Ni, but in terms of scheming, you can't compare with him. People can see through what you do, but do you know how many traps they set for you behind the scenes? It's easier to block an open attack than an arrow from the dark!" Liu Feng sighed for a long time and then shook his head repeatedly with a somewhat regretful tone. He said this not only to Wen Yiyu, but probably to himself as well. After all, he was caught off guard against Chen Ni in the beginning.

"Uncle Liu, I'm just so angry. You've done him a favor, and he can choose not to repay you, but he can't be an ungrateful person or even kill your whole family!" Wen Yiyu bit his cheek, looking very angry.

Gu Tongwan beside him subconsciously asked: "The whole family? It means Chairman Liu's son and daughter-in-law are..."

"That's right, it was Chen Ni who planned this behind the scenes, otherwise Liu Yuan's team would not have been suddenly attacked by high-level mutant beasts." After Wen Yiyu finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at Liu Feng, who had been sitting silently on the bed. He saw that his fingers grasping the quilt were trembling slightly. It was obvious that he had already guessed it in his mind, but he just didn't want to admit it.

"Uncle Liu, I went out this time to investigate the cause of Xiaoyuan's death. I found traces of the beast-attracting powder used at the place where the team was killed."

"Beast-attracting powder, isn't that a kind of powder that the Hunter Guild often uses to catch prey? I remember that this kind of thing can only be purchased in the name of the guild, because there are strict restrictions on the quantity and gram weight. It must be registered when purchased, and use must also follow the operating rules. Otherwise, it is easy to cause mutant beasts to go crazy and even cause a small-scale beast tide phenomenon." Liao Yunyun, who was sitting in the corner, frowned and looked at Wen Yiyu in surprise.

However, Liao Yunyun's sudden opening made others look at her differently.

"What's wrong? Why are you all looking at me like that?" Liao Yunyun didn't expect that everyone's eyes were on her, and she immediately regretted interrupting.

"How did you know? You don't look like a hunter." Wen Yiyu looked at the girl in front of him with some curiosity. Although he heard that these people were friends of Sister Cai Xing, he didn't expect that they seemed to be quite familiar with the hunter circle and even sent people to pick them up.

Perhaps it was Wen Yiyu's gaze that turned to him, Song Bo responded with a light smile, and then turned his gaze back to Liao Yunyun. It could be felt that he seemed to be very concerned about that girl.

Song Bo was indeed not familiar with the people from the Xiaohe Guild. This time he went to meet Cai Xing entirely in compliance with the arrangements of the boss. After all, he would have to follow the boss in the future. Besides, he was already an A-level psychic now, and he didn't know if he would have the chance to reach the threshold of an S-level psychic in the future. Therefore, he had to seize every possible opportunity.

However, it can be said that Song Bo arrived in time, because when he rushed over, he happened to see all the team members who had just escaped from the mutant beasts but were exhausted.

"Sister Yunyun, I also want to know what beast-attracting powder is. This is the first time I've heard of it." Lan Cen next to her looked at her like a curious child, with curiosity and anticipation in his eyes becoming stronger and stronger.

When asked this question, Liao Yunyun could only reply somewhat awkwardly: "I also have a half-understanding of it, because when I was doing interviews before, I followed several medium-sized hunter guilds on field missions. At that time, I saw the guild members sprinkle this powder to lure out small mutant beasts in the surrounding area for hunting. However, this kind of beast-luring powder is very risky and requires high-intensity teamwork, because once there are high-level mutant beasts nearby, it's all over."

"Not only that, in fact, before meeting you, I checked along the road you took into the mountain before, and found residual traces of the beast-attracting powder there as well, and it was still fresh. After all, there was still a fragrance, which means that the beast-attracting powder was sprinkled not long ago." Song Bo said immediately.

"No wonder. I was wondering why we encountered all kinds of strange mutant beasts shortly after entering the forest. So this is what's going on! Damn it, this must be Chen Ni's doing behind the scenes!"

"Taozi, why are you looking for a few people? If you go looking for Chen Ni now, isn't that just walking into a trap? Are you crazy? Come back here!" Wen Yiyu's shout stopped the team members who were rushing out.

"Team leader, I can't swallow this either. What Chen Ni did is really inhumane."

"That's a newborn. Can a newborn be the same as a human?" The man called Taozi clenched his fists.

"So the reason why you were delayed in returning this time is because someone was deliberately obstructing you?" Cai's mother looked at her son nervously. Fortunately, apart from the small bump on Cai Xing's forehead left by Xiaoli hitting him with a wooden stick, there were no other external injuries.

"I guess so. We found someone following us on the way there. I guess they are Chen Ni's people. They want to make sure we really enter the forest so that they can sprinkle animal-attracting powder and keep us surrounded by mutant animals. But the team leader still has the last bottle of animal-repellent liquid. Most animals don't like the smell on us. But if we stay in the forest any longer and the animal-repellent liquid expires, we probably won't be able to escape." Cai Xing still felt a chill down his spine when he thought of this. After all, who would have thought that from the time they took on this mission to the time they entered the forest, everything was actually a trap set by Chen Ni.

"By the way, where are my sister and brother-in-law? Why are they nowhere to be seen?" Cai Xing's attention had been entirely on Chairman Liu before, and only now did he realize that he seemed to have not seen Cai Min and Xu Xuesong since he entered the door.

"Your sister and your brother-in-law went to the security team. I thought they would have news about you there. They have been gone for a while and they should be back soon."

Cai Xing nodded again, but then his face turned serious, "Dad, Mom, don't tell anyone about my return for now, and don't tell my relatives. I'm worried that Chen Ni has spies around here."

"Since they have already started to act, they will probably keep a close eye on the members of Guild Group Two and Group Six. Once they realize that we may have sneaked into the base, they will increase their surveillance on us. So we have to be careful when we travel during this period." Wen Yiyu's voice was a little hoarse. He hadn't slept for three consecutive days because he was worried that the entire team would be wiped out due to his negligence.

"Then can you guys still go home? Will you be discovered?" Cai's mother asked hurriedly.

Cai Xing looked at the others, and his teammates' eyes were filled with bitterness. Most of the people here did not have families, and even if they did, they would not dare to go home at this moment, for fear of bringing trouble to their families because of themselves.

Cai Xing gritted his teeth and looked at Cai's father. The latter probably felt Cai Xing's gaze, and after a flash of surprise in his eyes, he slowly nodded.

After getting Cai's father's consent, Cai Xing proposed that the members of the Xiaohe Guild could temporarily stay at Cai's house. Unexpectedly, Taozi was the first to object: "No, this is absolutely not possible. This will be a burden to your family. Besides, how can we accommodate so many people? It's not convenient for your family."

"It's not inconvenient. Let Cai Xing squeeze in with you and clean up the utility room temporarily. You can also arrange a few seats in the living room." While speaking, Cai's mother had already started thinking about how to arrange the seats.

"You can also stay in my room. Currently, it's just me and Brother Chen, and a few more people can move in." Yan Fan also spoke.

"Old woman, how about this, you and Cai Min live in one room, and Xuesong and I live in another room. This way our room can accommodate two more people." Father Cai tapped his pipe on the table a few times and then made up his mind.

Seeing that everyone had already arranged a place for them, the members of the Xiaohe Guild felt unspeakable emotions in their hearts. Originally, they were planning to go outside and find an unfinished building to deal with. The worst that could happen was that they would freeze, after all, they had experience in the wild before. Moreover, they had originally planned to come to the Cai family just to visit the old president, but they did not expect to cause so much trouble to the Cai family.
