Start a mysterious island

Chapter 296 This thing looks like it will kill you if you eat it! (Two chapters in one)

When the danger was over, Lin Li extinguished the fireball in his hand. He came here mainly to save people.

Since the gray one-horned leopard beast knew better and retreated, and since he wanted to go home and take a shower in a hurry, he stopped chasing him.

"Boss, are you okay?" A construction worker came to the middle-aged man's side and stretched out his hand to help the middle-aged man lying on the ground.

"We're fine. Is anyone injured?" After being helped up, the middle-aged man asked.

"No one was injured." The construction worker who helped the middle-aged man answered.

"It's fine. Let's take a good rest for a few days starting tomorrow." The middle-aged man was frightened after what happened. Seeing the frightened expressions on the faces of his employees, he decided to give everyone a few days off.

At this time, there was a harsh friction sound on the roadside. Everyone who had survived the disaster heard the sound and went to look for it. They saw Lin Li standing in front of the big tree on the roadside, reaching out and pulling out the spiritual weapon long sword that had been shot into the trunk of the big tree.

Upon seeing this, the middle-aged man immediately came to Lin Li and thanked Lin Li with a grateful expression.

"Sir, thank you so much just now. If you hadn't rescued me in time, I would have died in the mouth of that strange beast."

Lin Li nodded to the middle-aged man, accepted the other man's thanks, and then reminded him.

"Please be careful in the future! It's best not to stay so close to the wilderness when the sun is going down."

"After this encounter, we will never..." the middle-aged man said, and then he added something doubtful.

"It's strange to think about it. In the past, we were working on the edge of the safety zone near the wilderness at this time. We have never encountered such a strange beast directly crossing the safety zone and attacking us."

Lin Li said casually, "Maybe you just hit the little brother of the alien beast with a small stone, so it rushed into the safe area in anger and attacked you."

"Uh..." When the middle-aged man heard what Lin Li said, he recalled the whole process of what happened before, and an embarrassed expression suddenly appeared on his chubby face.

The reason why he felt embarrassed was because he recalled the whole process of what happened just now, and it was indeed what Lin Li said.

If he didn't call his employees to attack the gray wolves, he wouldn't have caused the gray wolves' boss, the gray unicorn leopard, to cross the barbed wire and attack them.

However, if they do not drive away those gray wolves that linger in place, then their project of laying the barbed wire fence will not be completed. Thinking about it, it is really a dilemma!

Lin Li was thinking about going home quickly, taking a shower, and then taking the red mushrooms he got in the morning to Su Yue's house and asking Su Yue to cook them.

After chatting politely with the middle-aged man for a few words, he said, "I have other things to be busy with, so I'll leave first."

"Sir, can you tell me your contact information?" Seeing that his savior was about to leave, the middle-aged man thought about getting a contact information. He asked his wife at home to prepare some gifts, and then came to express his gratitude for saving his life. kindness.

"There is no need for contact information, and you don't need to think about thanking me, it's just a little effort... You'd better take your employees and leave here as soon as possible!

After I leave, I can't protect the gray unicorn leopard beast from killing him.

If those alien beasts really come back to kill you, I won't be here by then, and no one will be able to save you. " Lin Li, who was thinking about rushing home to take a shower, shook his head, reminded the middle-aged man, and then turned around and left with the spiritual weapon long sword.

"Boss, that guy is right. Let's take the time to deal with the end of the barbed wire fence and get out of here..." A construction worker looked at Lin Li who was drifting away, withdrew his gaze and said to the middle-aged man.

"Yes." The middle-aged man who was almost bitten to death by a strange beast just nodded immediately, and then he called his employees to speed up and quickly tie up the unfinished parts of the laid barbed wire.

Although every one of the construction workers laying the barbed wire turned pale with fright, their legs were a little weak.

But after being greeted by the middle-aged man, he turned back and ran to the location where the confrontation had just occurred, and dealt with the unfinished barbed wire fence.

After all, this project is coming from the government, and the government will send someone to inspect it later.

If they don't finish it off and the inspection team discovers that their construction team failed to complete the laying of barbed wire on this stretch of road as required, the project fee will be deducted.

Once the project payment is withheld, it will affect their salary payment, which is absolutely not allowed to happen, so even if I am still a little scared and my legs are a little weak, for the sake of money, grit your teeth and persevere! this is life.

"Wow, wow, wow..."

There was a sound of water running in the bathroom, and after more than ten minutes, the sound stopped.

When Lin Li returned home, he took a warm cold shower and felt refreshed. He wanted to take an icy cold shower, but the weather was so hot, so he heated the cold water directly.

After taking a shower, the fatigue of searching for strange animals in the wilderness all afternoon has completely dissipated.

"Ding dong..."

Lin Li, who had just come out of the bathroom, was about to take the sweat-soaked camouflage uniform he wore today to the sink on the balcony to soak in the water.

I would wash up later. At this time, the doorbell at home was rang.

"Click."

Opening the door, a young man carrying a variety of equipment stood at the door of his home.

This young man was the air-conditioner repairman whom Lin Li had contacted before. After opening the door, Lin Li called the air-conditioner repairman in.

"The air conditioner in your home is not broken, it just ran out of refrigerant. I will replenish the refrigerant for you and you can use it as usual." The air conditioner repairman checked the condition of the air conditioner and then told Lin Li.

"Okay, master, could you please help me add the refrigerant."

"It costs fifty yuan to refill the refrigerant."

"Okay, you can join me!"

After the air conditioner repairman told Lin Li the price of adding refrigerant, and seeing Lin Li nodding in agreement, he started to use his own equipment to add refrigerant to Lin Li's air conditioner.

"call……"

The air conditioner restarted with refrigerant added, and the air it blew was cool.

Lin Li felt the cold wind blowing from the air conditioner and nodded with satisfaction. Then he took out his mobile phone and scanned the payment code of the air conditioner repairman. After paying the money, he sent the person away.

The air-conditioning repairman walked into the elevator, pressed the button for the first floor, pondered in his mind for a few seconds, and murmured to himself.

"It's strange. Isn't the air conditioner in this guest's living room short of refrigerant and unable to cool the air? Why is it still so cold in the living room?"

After Lin Li sent away the master who repaired the air conditioner, he came to the air conditioner that was spitting out cold air. He looked at the air conditioner that had restored its cooling effect and thought to himself.

"From now on, let's use the refrigeration device purchased from Dongwucheng in the spiritual world to cool down the living room at home! If guests come, use this air conditioner again."

After Lin Li made a decision in his mind, he picked up the remote control of the air conditioner and turned off the air conditioner that restored the cooling effect. Then he took out the cooling device that he had put away before from the mysterious island, activated it and placed it on the top of the air conditioner.

Afterwards, he went to the bathroom, took off the camouflage uniform to the balcony, and put the camouflage uniform covered with sweat and dust in the sink to soak.

"Dinglingling..."

Lin Li was holding an opaque plastic bag in his hand. As soon as he walked out of the gate of the community, his cell phone rang in his pocket.

He took out his cell phone and took a look. Su Yue's name was displayed on the caller ID.

"Hello."

"Lin Li, haven't you gone out yet?"

"I'm going out, I'm heading to your house now!"

"Oh, okay, then I'll start cooking."

After a brief chat, the two ended the call. Lin Li put away his phone and walked quickly towards Su Yue's community.

The opaque plastic bag he was carrying contained red mushrooms, and he originally planned to let Su Yue cook and dispose of these red mushrooms himself.

Now that he knew that Su Yue was going to start preparing dinner, Lin Li thought about rushing to Su Yue's house and before she finished cooking, show her the ingredients he had specially found and let her add an extra mushroom dish.

…………

"Ding dong."

Press the doorbell, and after a while, the door in front of you opens.

Su Yue was wearing a white T-shirt, denim shorts, and an apron. Her smooth black hair was tied up with a pink hairband.

After opening the door, she greeted Lin Li to come in and noticed that Lin Li was holding an opaque plastic bag in his hand.

"Is this the special thing you told me before to show me? What's in the bag?"

After Lin Li entered the door, he saw Su Yue asking, handed her the bag in his hand, and said with a smile, "This special thing is a good thing! Open it and take a look..."

Su Yue curiously took the plastic bag handed over by Lin Li. After opening it, she saw that the bag contained many brightly colored mushrooms that she had never seen before. The curiosity on her face turned into surprise.

"Well, the special thing you mentioned turned out to be mushrooms! But these mushrooms are all bright red in color. Could they be poisonous mushrooms?"

"..."

This idiot is so ignorant. He actually thinks there is something wrong with such a rare ingredient... Lin Li was speechless when he heard Su Yue say that the red mushrooms he had worked so hard to obtain were poisonous.

He went searching in the wilderness of the Southern District on a hot day just to get this red mushroom. Now that he was suspected that the red mushroom was poisonous, he felt very complicated.

"It's not poisonous. These mushrooms are rare ingredients. People who have eaten them say they taste very delicious..." Lin Li said.

"Who did you listen to? Don't be fooled! If these mushrooms are poisonous, you will be dead if you eat them."

As a cooking master, Su Yue has seen a lot of mushrooms, but she has never seen such brightly colored mushrooms. No wonder she suspected that these red mushrooms were poisonous.

Naturally, Lin Li couldn't explain the origin of these red mushrooms to Su Yue in detail. He said vaguely, "The person who said these mushrooms are not poisonous and very delicious is an investigator. The investigator will not lie to me, right?"

"Investigator? Do you still know the investigator?" Su Yue asked in surprise.

“When I was visiting the vegetable market, I happened to meet an investigator who was buying vegetables in the market.

At that time, many people, like you, suspected that the red mushrooms sold by the stall owner were poisonous. When the investigator saw this, he revealed his identity and told the story about the red mushrooms.

I was in the crowd and listened to the investigator's explanation. I felt that since the investigators said that these mushrooms were not poisonous, not only rare, but also very delicious, I bought some. "Lin Li used his brains and made up a fairly reasonable story.

Su Yue said "Oh" and said nothing more to suspect that there was something wrong with the red mushroom, but the doubtful look in her eyes did not dissipate.

"Hey, don't worry. You can fry these mushrooms later. I'll eat them first. If there's any problem, I'll finish it first."

Seeing the doubtful look in Su Yue's eyes, Lin Li didn't explain any more and just asked her to handle the red mushrooms. He would taste them first after they were served on the table.

"Uh..." Su Yue hesitated for a moment. She originally wanted to refuse to handle the red mushroom, but couldn't resist Lin Li's repeated requests, so she reluctantly nodded.

As Su Yue walked to the kitchen with a plastic bag containing red mushrooms.

She was already thinking that if Lin Li had an adverse reaction after eating these red mushrooms, which seemed to have some problems, she would call an ambulance immediately.

After Su Yue walked into the kitchen, she poured the red mushrooms in the plastic bag into the basin, turned on the faucet, and prepared to wash them.

At this time, she noticed Lin Li following her into the kitchen, intending to attack her, and she immediately spoke to Lin Li.

"Okay, don't come to the kitchen and make trouble. Go sit in the living room for a while. I'll call you after I finish cooking..."

Lin Li scratched his head, "Didn't you say before that you wanted to teach me how to cook?"

"Yes! But not now. Don't look at the time now. It will be dark in a while. If you want to go hungry, I'll do it." Su Yue turned around and looked out the window, which was mostly dyed red by the setting sun. The color of the sky, said.

"Okay!" Lin Li nodded, then turned and left the kitchen, sat down on the sofa in the living room, turned on the TV, and watched a TV program that broadcast news about practitioners.

“According to government announcements, many construction teams have begun laying barbed wire fences on the outskirts of the Southern District and on the edge of the safety zone adjacent to the wilderness.

According to the current construction progress, all the barbed wire fences planned to be laid will be laid out within a week...

Although the process of laying the barbed wire fence is very fast and will be completed in the near future, I would like to remind everyone again that the laid barbed wire fence is not guaranteed to be foolproof. You should not move around the barbed wire fence at will. "

The beautiful news host broadcasts the things that are most concerned about the residents living in the suburbs of the South District and adjacent to the wilderness.

Lin Li took out his mobile phone from his pocket while listening to the news program on TV.

He clicked on the "Usu Recycling" software on his mobile phone. In the background, he saw that the scalper beast that he had asked the drone to recycle, and whose leg he had cut off, had been sold.

"Huh?"

When he opened his wallet, there was actually one million yuan on it. This meant that the ox beast that Lin Li hunted today and whose leg he cut off was actually sold for a high price of one million yuan.

According to the current market price of cattle and exotic beasts, the prey Lin Li hunted today could only be sold for five hundred thousand yuan at most. But now the price of this prey has doubled. Is it strange?

Lin Li didn't know that this weird beast that could grow red mushrooms could extract some unknown substance that accelerated plant growth.

If he knew, he would also be able to understand why the price of the prey he hunted had doubled.

"Forget it, never mind. It's a good thing that the price has doubled. Why do you want so much?" Lin Li muttered, then clicked on cash withdrawal and transferred the one million yuan in his wallet to his bank card.

And just when he was withdrawing cash to his bank card, a strange ox beast with one leg missing was delivered to the Rongcheng Psychic Research Institute by a courier from the 'Usu Recycling' company.
