Chapter 6989 Jealousy
Luo Tang was happy to offer his advice, adding, "Bamboo rats are delicious."
Luo Bi said with disgust, "I won't eat this."
Luo Tang nodded: "Okay, you can have all the bamboo shoots."
That's considered an agreement. When it comes to missions, the tasks need to be assigned properly, otherwise no one will be enthusiastic. Luo Yan and Ji Yao kept saying how delicious bamboo rats are and trying to persuade Luo Bi not to just ask for bamboo shoots.
When the group reached the edge of the planet, the defensive city was filled with the sounds of fighting.
Because Wei Tong was with Luo Bi, and women and children are weak in winter and would be a burden, Luo Tang led the team out of the safe zone in a military hovercar, while the Thunderflame Warriors with the team fought off the alien beasts that charged at them.
Luo Bi had witnessed just how enormous bamboo rats could be; they were all incredibly fierce.
Not far from the safe zone was a bamboo forest. A group of people fought their way through the beast horde and arrived at the bamboo forest, which was the edge of the bamboo forest mountain range. Luo Bi and Wei Tu got off the hovercar. The cold wind was howling. It got dark quickly in winter, and the temperature had already started to drop.
As far as the eye can see, there is a vast expanse of white bamboo forest.
When the bamboo rats saw humans coming to snatch the bamboo shoots, more than a dozen of them rushed over. They first threw a section of bamboo at Luo Bi, who quickly retreated, quite nervous, as the bamboo rats were too fierce.
Luo Zhuo and Wang Yan, along with other Thunderflame Warriors, were unfamiliar with bamboo frames and hastily took to the challenge, channeling their supernatural powers into the bamboo frames with their swords. Luo Bi provided a small handkerchief, and Luo Zhuo was able to shoot out one needle at a time. One of Luo Yan's brothers ran over and threaded a silk thread through the bamboo frame.
The scene was chaotic, with everyone hurriedly embroidering bamboo.
A dozen or so bamboo rats that had rushed over tilted their heads, dumbfounded. Seeing their interested expressions, Luo Bi quickly said, "Give it to them, give it to them..."
Wang Yan controlled the bamboo slings and sent them to a group of bamboo rats. Good heavens, the bamboo rats immediately grabbed the bamboo slings. One bamboo rat per bamboo sling, and the six bamboo rats pinched ice needles and poked and poked.
Poke it, and the Thunderflame Warriors immediately scattered to find bamboo shoots.
The bamboo rats without bamboo traps bared their teeth and charged forward. Wang Yan and Luo Zhuokong took the lead in fighting the bamboo rats. There were more than a dozen of them, but they managed to fool six of them, weakening their fighting power. The Thunderflame Warriors could still handle them.
That's right, the ice needle melted in the bamboo rat's paw, leaving the bamboo rat dumbfounded.
That's easy to do. Luo Bi took out a pack of needles and some thread, threaded the needle, and the bamboo rat was stunned again, its cute eyes wide open. Hey? Luo Bi had another idea.
Give a bamboo rat a needle, a thread, and find the eye of the needle; it'll keep the bamboo rat busy for a while.
The bamboo sling had fooled six bamboo rats, and there were still ten more that were looking for the needle's eye. Well, Luo Bi had fooled sixteen bamboo rats in one go. Luo Yan picked up a bag and threw them into it one by one.
The bamboo rats squeaked, but no needle eye could be found.
Who cares? Luo Yan was grinning from ear to ear: "Mom, how come bamboo rats are so easy to catch?"
Wang Yan ran back and controlled the bamboo bundle to continue feeding the other bamboo rats that came to kill. Finding the needle's eye was not easy to fool. Why? Only when the ice needle melted could the bamboo rats be tricked into taking the needle and thread to find the needle's eye.
Bamboo rats, unable to even grab a bamboo wicker basket while trying to join the fun, would then look for the eye of the needle after getting a needle and thread. Those with bamboo wicker baskets would then use them for embroidery.
Luo Yan only needed to catch them one by one, and no one would be envious of that job. Luo Bi was also envious, but she didn't dare to, worried that the fierce bamboo rats would become aggressive and hurt her with a claw.
"I found a bamboo shoot."
"I found one too."
"Wow, there's another bamboo shoot here."
Luo Bi was bewildered and asked Luo Tang, who was protecting her, "Are bamboo shoots that easy to find?"
"As long as there are no bamboo rats attacking, bamboo shoots are easy to find." (End of Chapter)
