47 Chapter 47 Beg for Mercy

The moon was bright, and there were few stars hanging in the sky. The summer night was a little chilly.

The sky appeared to be painted pitch black, and the blazing red-orange bonfire provided illumination for the pitch-black night.

The six of them decided to divide the night into three sections according to the order of drawing lots and take turns to stand guard.

It wasn’t time to stand guard yet.

!!

Lu Yang, Lu Mingyu, and Wen Jian sat around the bonfire and chatted.

Lin Xinmeng followed Zhou Moli around the campsite with a torch in hand. They searched for information on Mission 3.

Qin Yitan, on the other hand, was still curled up in the tent, holding his backpack tightly.

Resting her chin on her knee, Wen Jian shuddered as she looked into the dark, bottomless distance.

“It’s too quiet at night here. I suddenly feel a little creeped out.”

At least, there was the soft sound of the waves by the sea. Other than the silence, there was only the terrifying creaking and whimpering.

“Mingyu, why don’t you sing a song to liven up the atmosphere?” Lu Yang suggested.

“What do you want to hear?” Lu Mingyu raised his chin. “I know every Chinese song that exists.”

Lu Yang asked, “What about the bush song Wen Jian mentioned today?”

Wen Jian sat up straight as if she had been rejuvenated and volunteered herself. “Let me join too! This song is a male and female duet. Let’s go!”

“Sure.” Lu Mingyu nodded.

“Didn’t Lu Mingyu say it’s an insult to him to let him sing to liven up the atmosphere? Didn’t he think of himself as virtuous?”

Lu Yang raised her wrist and tapped her watch.

“Did she discover something? Or did she buy something?”

The netizens’ doubts were quickly resolved.

“Lu Yang has exchanged 3 points for “the bushes” song accompaniment”

The netizens were dumbfounded.

These points were treated like a treasure and not used by anyone, but she used them to buy an accompaniment!

“What was the use of an accompaniment? It can’t be eaten or used!” the netizens mused.

“I just bought an accompaniment,” Lu Yang told them.

While Wen Jian was still shocked, Lu Yang had already started the music. The prelude started, and Wen Jian followed the beat closely, immediately getting into the zone.

“The night carriage traveled to the west of the city. The cold wind quietly enters my arms.”

Lu Mingyu followed. “I’ve torn apart the empty realm. I’ve already given up the right to fly.”

His voice was different from usual. When he sang, his expression was serious, and his voice seemed to have magic that drew people in.

“When Wen Jian and Lu Mingyu aren’t joking around, their voices when they sing seriously are so healing! It’s so gentle and nice to hear!”

Among them, Lu Mingyu had a rhythmic rap.

His pronunciation was clear, and he had a good grasp of the rhythm.

After the rap, Wen Jian sang, “Forget what is true; the crossroads lead to the bottom of the sea.”

“After the wind passes, where can there be a clear star in the night sky?” Lu Mingyu ended the song.

The song had ended, but the netizens were still not done.

“I didn’t expect Lu Mingyu’s rap to be so good. I’ve never heard him sing rap before.”

“Other things aside, because there are always people who defame Lu Mingyu, everyone has ignored the fact that he is an excellent singer. His songs are all very good! I love it!”

“Wen Jian and Lu Mingyu’s duet is so exciting. Can I ship them?”

It was nighttime, and it was Lin Xinmeng and Zhou Moli’s turn to be on duty.

From time to time, Lin Xinmeng would try to strike up a conversation with Zhou Moli. However, Zhou Moli still had the patience to reply to her initially, but when his patience ran out, he would only occasionally reply with a perfunctory “mhm.”

“Your dreams will definitely come true!” Lin Xinmeng stated.

Zhou Moli answered, “… Mhm.”

Just as Lin Xinmeng was about to speak, the system’s notification rang in her mind.

“Lu Mingyu is in danger. Host, please follow the instructions and save him.”

Lin Xinmeng’s eyes instantly widened, and she thought inwardly, “It’s finally here! My script for everyone to love me!”

Lin Xinmeng made a random excuse and left in high spirits, heading in the direction the system had pointed out.

However, she did not expect the person she met to be Qin Yitan and not Lu Mingyu.

“What are you doing here?” Lin Xinmeng was extremely shocked.

“Where’s Lu Mingyu?” she mused.

She looked around but did not see anyone else.

Qin Yitan was staring at the cave ahead.

The cave was large enough for an adult man to climb in.

“What are you looking at?” Lin Xinmeng asked.

“Shush!” Qin Yitan said, “Don’t be too loud.”

Muffled hissing sounds kept coming from the cave. Qin Yitan picked up a wooden stick and moved forward carefully.

...

Lin Xinmeng was communicating with the system. “Where’s Lu Mingyu?”

“The original plot was that Lu Mingyu and Qin Yitan slept in the same tent. Lu Mingyu was angered by Qin Yitan and left in anger. When he encountered danger, he would overcome it with you.”

Lin Xinmeng asked, “So?”

The system stated: “After Lu Yang came, Lu Mingyu’s sarcasm grew stronger than before. The one who was angered became Qin Yitan. Host, if you can overcome the difficulties with Qin Yitan, you can also make him fall in love with you.”

Looking at Qin Yitan, who was slowly moving forward, Lin Xinmeng pursed her lips in disdain.

But for the sake of points, she still followed Qin Yitan and asked in a low voice, “What is this?”

Qin Yitan said impatiently, “I don’t have x-ray eyes. how would I know what it is?”

At the cave entrance, an animal with a hairy butt appeared. It had thick fur that ranged from brown to black, and its body and buttocks were light yellow, semi-circle-shaped stripes.

The animal was crawling out of its nest.

“Be careful,” Lin Xinmeng uttered with concern.

Qin Yitan responded, “If I fall into danger, I won’t be able to be careful just because you told me to.”

...

Lin Xinmeng was rendered speechless.

They only saw what the animal looked like when it crawled out.

It had a large and fatty torso, four short and small limbs, short, rounded ears, small, sharply pointed eyes, and a thick, short neck.

It was a wolverine, and a ferocious one.

The wolverine was right in front of him, staring at him with its dark eyes.

In an instant, Qin Yitan was terrified, as if he had seen a ghost.

At this moment, his curiosity had subsided and was replaced by fear.

Lin Xinmeng’s body tensed up, and her voice trembled slightly. “W-What do we do? Should we run?”

The wolverine let out a ferocious roar and hissed. Qin Yitan was so nervous that his heart was in his throat.

“How would I know what to do? I can’t outrun it!”

Qin Yitan suddenly hoped that someone would come and save him, but there was no one else besides Lin Xinmeng, who was on the verge of tears.

Suddenly, a light flashed in his head.

Qin Yitan kneeled on the ground and put his hands on the ground. He shouted sincerely and anxiously, “Father, please spare me! Father, please spare my life!”

Before Lin Xinmeng could react, Qin Yitan pulled her to kneel on the ground.

“Hurry up and beg for mercy. It’s said that even a vicious tiger won’t eat its cubs, so a vicious wolverine definitely won’t eat its cubs either!”

“Hahahaha! Qin Yitan has been brainwashed by Lu Mingyu all day long. Does he think Lu Mingyu is right?”

“The wolverine must be annoyed as it’s still underage. It must want them to get lost, as how can it have a child as old as him?”

“This is ridiculous. The two of them must be kowtowing. But it’s so funny! Hahahaha!”

The wolverine howled again. Lin Xinmeng’s body trembled, and her brain short-circuited. She also bowed to the wolverine.
