Mu Li paused mid-sentence, then tentatively asked, "Moreover, Brother Xiao dared to travel alone in the Monster Mountain Range; if he didn't have some skills, I certainly wouldn't believe it."

"Young Commander, you're joking. I'm just a fast runner. If I encounter a monster I can't defeat, I can barely protect myself!"

"Being able to run faster than others is a skill in itself, hahaha..."

Seeing Xiao Feng and Mu Li chatting and laughing, Little Fairy Doctor shook her head, unable to bear watching.

In Little Fairy Doctor's eyes, Xiao Feng was simply the kind of fool who was sold out and still had to help the seller count the money.

After being easily fooled by Mu Li with a few words, he revealed all his secrets.

Even if Xiao Feng is quite strong, if he cannot change his naive personality, he will eventually be eaten alive, leaving not even bones behind, in the dangerous Monster Mountain Range.

In some ways, encountering other people in the Monster Mountain Range might be more dangerous than encountering monsters.

People's hearts are evil!

Chapter 33 The Great Philanthropist Xiao Feng

As Xiao Feng and his group ventured deeper into the Monster Mountain Range, the frequency with which they encountered monsters increased significantly.

Despite being instantly killed by the combined attack of dozens of mercenaries, some unlucky mercenaries were ambushed and injured by the monsters that suddenly appeared.

For example, two mercenaries who were walking at the front were bitten by the Crimson Ice Serpent hidden in the tree branches.

The Crimson Ice Serpent is a relatively common Tier 1 magical beast, with the attribute of ice and containing cold poison within its body.

If a person bitten by a red ice snake does not receive treatment within half a day, they will die from the freezing cold poison that freezes their blood.

After everyone worked together to kill the two Crimson Ice Serpents, the two unlucky souls who had been bitten by the serpents were promptly taken to the herb-gathering team and given to Little Fairy Doctor to treat them personally.

To everyone's surprise, just as Little Fairy Doctor was about to remove the cold poison from the two mercenaries, Xiao Feng suddenly leaned over, took out two Grade One Detoxification Pills, and stuffed them into the mouths of the two mercenaries.

Although the First-Grade Detoxification Pill is not considered a particularly precious medicine, it can still fetch several hundred gold coins on the market.

Under normal circumstances, no one would be foolish enough to give away such a precious elixir to a stranger for free.

But when everyone saw with their own eyes how the two mercenaries who had been poisoned by the cold were full of energy after taking the first-grade antidote pill given by Xiao Feng, they had to admit that there really were such selfless fools!

Mu Li was initially worried that Xiao Feng might be pretending to be weak while actually being strong.

Seeing Xiao Feng's womanly compassion, Mu Li immediately lowered his guard.

"Are you stupid? I'm speechless. Don't you know you shouldn't flaunt your wealth?"

Even Little Fairy Doctor was defeated by Xiao Feng's naivety. She secretly kicked him and reminded him in a soft, mosquito-like voice, "Let me tell you, you'd better not leave my side before we get back to Qingshan Town, otherwise I won't be able to protect you."

If Xiao Feng were a selfish and petty person, Little Fairy Doctor certainly wouldn't risk offending the Wolf Head Mercenary Group to remind him.

Unfortunately, Xiao Feng is a pushover, and people like that are practically endangered. Little Fairy Doctor couldn't bear to see him get tricked to death.

"..."

Upon hearing Little Fairy Doctor's words, Xiao Feng was slightly taken aback, then nodded calmly.

Actually, Xiao Feng fed those two unlucky guys antidote pills not because he was simply kind-hearted, but to earn merit.

Saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda!

After Xiao Feng cured the two mercenaries of their cold poison, his merit points increased by more than 100 points.

Xiao Feng felt it was a good deal to exchange an antidote worth hundreds of gold coins for hundreds of merit points.

As for the fact that Little Fairy Doctor and the others thought he was a naive and kind-hearted good-natured person, Xiao Feng could only say that it was a beautiful misunderstanding.

After traversing the Monster Mountain Range for several hours, Xiao Feng and his group finally arrived at the herb-gathering area designated by Wan Yao Zhai. During the journey, more than ten mercenaries were attacked by monsters and suffered injuries of varying degrees.

Whenever he saw someone injured, Xiao Feng would immediately offer them healing medicine and antidote pills, thus earning hundreds of merit points in the process.

No one knew that Xiao Feng was accumulating merit; they simply thought he was a selfless and philanthropic person.

At first, most of the mercenaries looked down on Xiao Feng, thinking that he was too naive and that he wouldn't survive long in the Monster Mountain Range.

However, as more and more mercenaries were healed by Xiao Feng, people's attitudes toward him gradually changed.

Apart from a few mercenaries who were inherently cold-hearted, most of the mercenaries who were healed by Xiao Feng were very grateful to him, and at the same time felt ashamed for having ever had the thought of killing and robbing.

Those mercenaries who had not been treated by Xiao Feng, although they still thought he was an incurable good-natured person, couldn't help but feel a little respect for him.

After all, a kind-hearted person like Xiao Feng is the kind of teammate every mercenary dreams of.

Mu Li's hatred for Xiao Feng only deepened with the passage of time.

Because in Mu Li's eyes, Xiao Feng had already become his possession, so Xiao Feng's treasure was his treasure.

Every time Xiao Feng took out healing medicine and antidote pills to treat the wounded mercenaries, Mu Li felt like he was wasting his money, and his heart ached!

If it weren't for the Xiao family behind Xiao Feng, which prevented him from being killed in public, Mu Li would have loved to kill this good-for-nothing right now.

That's all my money!

My money!

"Alright, we've arrived at the herb-gathering area. Everyone can take a break first; you'll need the energy to gather herbs after a rest!"

The manager of Wanyaozhai led the herb-gathering team to rest for about ten minutes before taking Little Fairy Doctor and the others to gather herbs.

The mercenaries responsible for protecting the herb-gathering team were divided into two groups: some patrolled and guarded the surrounding area, while others set up tents on the spot.

It's already noon, and by the time the people from Wan Yao Zhai finish collecting the herbs, it will probably be dark.

The Monster Mountain Range becomes more dangerous at night, so traveling through the night is not a wise choice. It would be better to rest for the night and set off back to Green Mountain Town the next morning.

To prevent Xiao Feng from being tricked to death, Little Fairy Doctor deliberately used the excuse of having him help her gather herbs to keep him by her side.

Looking at Xiao Feng, who was inseparable from Little Fairy Doctor, Mu Li couldn't help but frown. He had to find a way to separate the two, otherwise it would be inconvenient for him to kill and plunder.

Time passed slowly, and the sky gradually darkened, plunging the entire Monster Mountain Range into darkness.

The people from Wanyaozhai had finished collecting the herbs, and they began to gather in small groups around the campfire to eat their dinner.

"Miss, the rice balls are ready."

The maid who was in charge of serving Little Fairy Doctor simply heated up the meat-filled rice balls she carried with her and handed them to her with a respectful expression.

After receiving the two meat-filled rice balls from the maid, Little Fairy Doctor handed one of them to Xiao Feng with a smile and said, "You've worked hard collecting herbs for me all day, so please have a rice ball."

"You're being too stingy!"

Xiao Feng feigned dissatisfaction and said, "You're just going to fob me off with a rice ball?"

"Don't underestimate this rice ball. I made it myself. The rice inside is made with soft, sweet purple crystal rice, and the meat filling is made with the best monster pork belly. It's fatty but not greasy, and it's very delicious."

"is it?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Feng smiled and said, "Then I'll have to try your cooking!"

As soon as Xiao Feng finished speaking, he peeled off the leaves covering the meat-filled rice ball and took a big bite.

"Hmm~ delicious!"

Savoring the aroma of rice and meat bursting in his mouth, Xiao Feng felt that the more he chewed, the more delicious it became, and nodded with satisfaction.

Chapter 34 Pig Teammates and Tiger Teammates

I told you it was delicious!

Seeing that Xiao Feng was giving her so much face, Little Fairy Doctor's smile became even brighter, and she then began to enjoy the meat-filled rice ball in her hand.

"Ok?"

When Little Fairy Doctor took her first bite of the meat-filled rice ball, her expression suddenly changed slightly, revealing a somewhat puzzled look.

Why does this meat-filled rice ball taste different from the meat-filled rice balls I usually make?

The maid, who was secretly observing Little Fairy Doctor, noticed Little Fairy Doctor's unusual expression and her heart jumped into her throat.

Because Mu Li liked Xiao Yi Xian, he had secretly bribed Xiao Yi Xian's personal maid to learn about her daily life and preferences.

In order to separate Little Fairy Doctor and Xiao Feng, Mu Li secretly gave his personal maid a packet of laxatives and asked her to put it inside a meat-filled rice ball.

Even if Little Fairy Doctor wanted to protect Xiao Feng, she couldn't possibly keep him by her side while he had diarrhea. In that case, Mu Li could kill him and steal his treasure.

Perhaps due to the influence of the Calamity Poison Body, Little Fairy Doctor finds poisons to taste delicious when she takes them.

Therefore, Little Fairy Doctor felt that the meat-filled rice balls with added laxatives tasted much better than usual.

Little Fairy Doctor never expected her personal maid to betray her; she thought it was because her cooking skills had improved again.

Seeing that Little Fairy Doctor did not suspect her, the personal maid secretly breathed a sigh of relief and began to eat the plain meat-filled rice ball.

???

More than half an hour later, seeing the two still chatting and laughing, Mu Li couldn't help but frown and cast a questioning look at Little Fairy Doctor's personal maid.

Did you give them laxatives or not?

The personal maid instantly understood Mu Li's meaning and nodded innocently.

The personal maid was also confused. She had clearly put plenty of laxatives in the meat-filled rice ball, so why didn't Xiao Feng and Little Fairy Doctor feel anything?

Surely neither of them can be immune to laxatives?

Just as Mu Li was about to think of other solutions, Little Fairy Doctor suddenly blushed slightly, whispered a few words to her personal maid, and then pulled her up and left.

There are three urgent things for people!

Although Little Fairy Doctor is immune to the harm caused by laxatives, she drank quite a lot of water while eating the meat-filled rice ball and now wants to relieve herself.

Watching Little Fairy Doctor and the others leave, Xiao Feng and Mu Li both breathed a sigh of relief; the troublesome people were finally gone.

After Xiao Feng withdrew his gaze from Xiao Yixian's slender waist, he immediately turned to look in the direction of Mu Li, only to find that Mu Li was looking directly at him.

"..."

The two looked at each other and were slightly taken aback for a moment, then simultaneously revealed kind smiles.

This is truly a two-way race!

Under Mu Li's surprised and delighted gaze, Xiao Feng suddenly covered his stomach with his hand, stood up with a troubled expression, and hurriedly walked into the woods not far away.
