After Xu Mu finished urinating, he tightened the cap of the water bottle and put it into another compartment of his schoolbag.
He continued on his way, but now, Xu Mu also began to wander aimlessly.
Logically speaking, the most likely area for Xu Ningbing to appear was this one.
There were relatively fewer trees here, and without a large expanse of tree cover, the natural treasures around were easier to spot and there were more of them growing.
Before he knew it, it was already evening.
The sun had set, but the temperature around was still very high.
Xu Mu thought it wasn't a good idea to keep doing this. It was too difficult to find someone in such a vast forest full of trees.
After much thought, Xu Mu decided to take the initiative.
"Xu Ningbing! Bingzi! Laobing! Where are you?"
Xu Mu shouted loudly in all directions as he searched.
He hadn't done this before because he didn't want to expose himself.
It seemed that there were far more people here than just Xu Ningbing.
Shouting out names like this would definitely attract the attention of others.
But there was no other way now. He was afraid that Xu Ningbing couldn't hold on any longer.
Since he couldn't find her, he could only hope that she would hear his voice and come to him.
Xu Mu shouted every twenty - odd seconds. Soon, his mouth became dry and parched.
He took out the last bottle of mineral water from his schoolbag, took a few big gulps, and then continued shouting in all directions.
Just then, he noticed another blue mallow in a rock crevice in the distance.
He immediately walked over, picked the blue mallow, and put it into his storage space. This was a good thing.
"Xu Ningbing!"
Xu Mu continued to shout.
Suddenly, there was a noise in the forest in the distance.
Xu Mu immediately used his perception to check and found that a thin middle - aged man was approaching him.
He looked at the little less than half a bottle of water in his hand and put it into the storage space.
Just then, the thin middle - aged man stepped on a branch and looked down at Xu Mu.
"Kid, give me the water and I'll spare your life!"
The thin middle - aged man took out a dagger from his schoolbag behind him and jumped down from the branch.
"But I have no water left. There was only a little bit, and I've already drunk it just now."
Xu Mu looked at the middle - aged man and said.
"Bullshit! Open your schoolbag!"
The thin middle - aged man said coldly.
"Okay."
Xu Mu opened his schoolbag and turned it upside down. Two mineral water bottles fell to the ground.
One was an empty bottle, and the other had half a bottle of liquid.
Besides, there were also some snacks and instant noodles.
"What's that?"
The thin middle - aged man pointed at the bottle with his dagger and shouted.
His throat was dry now, and he had no interest in other things.
"My urine. I thought there was a water shortage here, so I saved it up for emergencies."
Xu Mu picked up the mineral water bottle and handed it to the thin middle - aged man. "If you want to drink it, here you are. I have a bit of diabetes, so it should be a bit sweet."
"Damn it!"
The thin middle - aged man cursed.
Was he, a peak - level Dark - Force master, going to end up drinking this kind of thing?
If it were a beautiful woman's, it might be okay, but the problem was that it was a man's.
Just then, another person rushed out from the distant woods.
"If you dare to touch him, I'll kill you!"
Xu Mu looked in the direction of the voice and found a high - ponytailed woman in jeans and a white shirt on top appearing in front of him.
It was Fan Shiyu.
The thin middle - aged man looked at Fan Shiyu and found that she was extremely fast.
It seemed that her strength was above his.
He was dying of thirst now and had no energy for a fierce fight.
Without hesitation, the thin middle - aged man turned around and ran away.
After seeing the man run away, Fan Shiyu slowed down and walked towards Xu Mu.
"Stinky woman! You're looking for death!"
Just then, another woman rushed out from the other side.
Xu Mu took a look with his perception and then turned his head in shock. It was actually Dai Xingluo.
He was quite surprised. Why was this woman here?
When Fan Shiyu saw Dai Xingluo, her eyes instantly turned icy cold. "You still dare to show up!"
Without saying a word, she stepped forward to face Dai Xingluo.
Boom!
The qi emitted by both of them made the air vibrate violently.
Dai Xingluo clenched her dagger and waved it forcefully at Fan Shiyu.
An arc - shaped sword qi more than a meter long flew out quickly.
Fan Shiyu immediately dodged. The sword qi hit a big tree behind her.
A crack appeared on the tree, and sawdust flew everywhere, as if it had been chopped by a giant axe.
By now, Fan Shiyu had reached Dai Xingluo. She formed her hand into a claw and grabbed down vertically.
In the emitted qi, five claw marks were faintly visible.
Dai Xingluo quickly dodged to the left, but one of the claw marks still flew past her face and cut off a lock of her hair.
Xu Mu took out the remaining mineral water, took a sip, and then said, "Stop fighting! If you want to fight, go to my room and fight!"
Hearing this, Fan Shiyu and Dai Xingluo stopped at the same time.
Both of them looked at Xu Mu and the mineral water in his hand, and immediately felt their mouths go dry.
"Brother, give me some water."
Dai Xingluo walked towards Xu Mu a moment earlier.
Only then did Fan Shiyu realize that they knew each other.
"Do you still have any water? I also want to have a drink."
Fan Shiyu also came to Xu Mu's side.
It was already sweltering hot here. Coupled with the fact that the two of them had been fighting for a long time just now, they were both tired and thirsty and urgently needed water to cool down.
"I only have this little left."
There was less than one-third of the water left in Xu Mu's water bottle at this time.
"I don't mind."
Dai Xingluo said with a smile.
"Is she your sister?"
Fan Shiyu looked at Xu Mu and asked.
"No."
Xu Mu shook his head.
Hearing this, Fan Shiyu immediately stood in front of Dai Xingluo. "How shameless you are! You don't mind? Is this water yours?"
"Stop arguing. Let's split it in half."
Xu Mu said to Fan Shiyu, "Give me the dagger."
Fan Shiyu nodded.
Xu Mu picked up the dagger, cut the mineral water bottle in half, and then poured the water out.
When he felt that it was about evenly divided, he handed the two halves to them respectively.
Fan Shiyu and Dai Xingluo immediately took them and drank with their heads up.
They felt a little relieved, but they were still thirsty.
"Brother, do you still have any water? Sister is dying of thirst."
Dai Xingluo looked at the schoolbag behind Xu Mu and asked.
"I don't have any water here. However, I have urine."
Xu Mu turned the schoolbag upside down, and half a bottle of urine fell out.
When Dai Xingluo and Fan Shiyu saw this, their faces all looked a bit ugly.
They had just arrived here and were really thirsty at the moment, but they weren't so desperate as to drink such a thing.
"Brother, you're so disgusting."
Dai Xingluo frowned.
"Just in case. We can't get out of this place. I don't want to die of thirst."
As Xu Mu was speaking, he picked up another empty bottle from his schoolbag. "I have to go again."
After saying that, he quickly ran behind a tree and came back with another half - bottle.
"This bottle is fresh. Let me know in advance if you need it."
Xu Mu walked over with the bottle.
"I don't want it!"
Fan Shiyu curled her lips.
"If you don't want it, I'll keep it."
Xu Mu put everything into his schoolbag.
Suddenly, Xu Mu pointed at Fan Shiyu's face. "What's wrong with your face?"
Fan Shiyu touched it with her hand and found that there seemed to be many blisters inside her facial skin.
"It's too hot. The glue on the mask has come off and it's all bubbled up."
As she was speaking, she tore off the human - skin mask.
