Tutu Tries to Tease Mr. Huang, but Gets Instantly Defeated
It's probably gone.
"It seems our Mr. Huang really is quite the womanizer. Does that mean every woman comes to pursue you?"
"Strictly speaking, that is indeed the case in my case."
"So, did you say the same things you told me the night before to other people as well, Mr. Huang? Do you know how hurtful that is to a girl?"
Arturo said in a somewhat ominous tone, trying to convey that he hadn't meant it that way.
But Huang Cao was completely oblivious to his own limitations, and the underlying code of the wood instantly kicked in.
"I'm actually quite good at comforting people, but my encounters with my wives often stemmed from mutual affection and some strange misunderstandings. I love my wives very much, but I'm not the kind of person who's promiscuous. In short, you can still trust my integrity..."
Now, looking at the large log in front of him, Arturo finally understood.
It's likely true that the other party is pursuing him. If you don't actively pursue someone as big as him, you might not get a response even when you're buried.
Arturo sighed, "Fine, whether you get married or not is none of my business, but the wilderness of Lateran isn't a safe place. We're both warlocks, and if we're not careful, we might get caught in close combat."
"Don't worry, my close combat skills are also quite impressive; I could easily take on hundreds of millions of you."
"Then I am grateful for your care during these days, sir."
Arturo took a deep breath and fell silent. A moment later, Huang Cao also returned to his room.
The next morning, after bidding farewell to Sister Lyssa and the others at the convent, the two embarked on their journey to the capital.
After walking for half a day, Arturo suddenly turned his head and looked at the Sunflower Monastery, where he could still see the church steeple, and his lips curled slightly.
"Mr. Huang, don't you find this a bit strange?"
"What's strange?"
Huang Cao took out a spicy strip from the space created by Xi Gua and asked in confusion.
Arturo wiped the fine sweat from his brow and pointed with his sweat-soaked gloves to the cello behind him.
No, it should be the wooden box and the cello.
The cello was already quite heavy, and with the addition of a metal and wooden case, it weighed over thirty kilograms.
It should be noted that Arturo's cello is also a special kind of staff, and its weight is definitely much heavier than the cello in Master Huang's previous life.
So Arturo carried the 30-plus kilograms of spellcasting equipment and walked dozens of kilometers behind Master Huang, without even taking a break along the way.
Not all Terra are Terra Superman; the physical abilities of Lateran are generally inferior to those of the Sarkaz, so she also felt fatigued after walking for so long.
"So you wanted to rest for a while, you should have said so earlier~" Huang Cao suddenly realized, but he had obviously misunderstood.
Although it's getting late and night is approaching, the wilderness at night is far more dangerous than ever before.
"No, what I meant was, do you have any Originium Arts that could place my cello in a special space?"
"Of course I do. I thought you were worried about me and wanted to carry the staff for self-defense." Huang Cao ate the snacks in her hand, her tone slightly doubtful.
Arturo was so angry he laughed; apparently, this guy thought he was insecure.
As for how this angel transported its cello in the past, it was naturally by means of transportation.
She had driven all the way to the Sunflower Monastery.
Arturo wasn't just carrying his cello on his back; he was also carrying his change of clothes from the past few days.
She was already drenched in sweat. If she didn't wash herself off on the way, even Super Terran would easily get sick, let alone someone whose physical condition wasn't particularly strong.
They were never as good as some of the more experienced Terra.
"Then I'd like to trouble you, esteemed Mr. Huang, to help me with this portion of the weight."
Huang Cao put Arturo's cello and personal clothing into his storage space, while the latter wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The girl pointed to a sheltered cave. "It's getting late, let's rest there tonight. By the way, Mr. Huang, you should have brought food and drinking water, right?"
"You don't need to worry about that. I will definitely provide the most basic living necessities for your journey."
Reaching the shady cave, and looking at the setting sun and the desolate wilderness outside, Huang Cao retrieved several bottles of electrolyte water and a piece of bread from his spatial storage and handed them to Arturo, who was looking in the mirror.
"Thanks."
The thirsty Arturo tore open the bread and bottled water and devoured them in just two minutes.
"You smell so bad. I wish there was a stream here."
After secretly replenishing his energy, Arturo sniffed the stench on his body and then took off his stockings and wrung them out.
A stream of sweat-soaked liquid flowed from the center of the stockings, carrying a strange smell.
Arturo looked somewhat disgusted.
At our current pace, we should be able to leave the wilderness and reach the forest area soon, but it will still take some time to reach the capital.
If I throw these clothes away now, and we don't even reach civilized society within a month, won't I be running around in my underwear every day?
"I really wish there was a river where I could take a good, refreshing bath."
Arturo couldn't help but complain, even though he had experienced similar situations before.
But she immediately smelled a fragrance, and when she turned around, she saw that Huang Cao was simmering meat soup in an iron pot, and two extremely large plants were growing next to him.
The plant is shaped like a bathtub, with soft leaves and two wheel-like biomimetic devices under the leaves.
But that's not the point. The point is that these two plants contain a large amount of water, enough to submerge three or four adults.
Where did you get so much clean water?
"Groundwater, special Originium Arts, even plant corpses are still corpses, I can still control them!"
Necromancers—do such warlocks really exist in this world?
Arturo didn't want to delve into it, but right now she really wanted to take a long, cold shower.
As you gently run your fingers across the surface of the plant tank, the coolness of the groundwater seeps directly into your heart and soul.
"Mr. Huang, is our freshwater supply very tight?"
"Absolutely not. The water inside these two plants is meant for bathing, and after being filtered by the plants, it's completely equivalent to pure water."
That's too extravagant!
Keep in mind that the two were in the middle of a desert, where every drop of water was extremely precious.
However, the lack of water on the surface of a desert does not mean that there is no water underground.
However, before that, Huang Cao needs to explain some things to the angel to avoid any strange or unusual situations.
Chapter 549 TuTu tries to tease Master Huang, but gets instantly killed.
"There's a big rock inside the cave. You can take a bath there. Don't cause any more of that silly 'looking for something cheap' thing."
Huang Cao simply wanted to acquire a radio to pass the time on the road; he wasn't really interested in developing any strange or unusual events.
So to avoid awkward situations, try to do as much as possible.
Pushing the plant, filled with water, like a wheelbarrow, to the back of the boulder, Arturo took a deep breath and took off his sweat-soaked clothes.
Then, in the dim light of the cooking fire, she used the extra water to wash the clothes she had changed out of before taking a bath.
Of course, throughout the entire process, she kept glancing at Master Huang was wholeheartedly cooking.
After all, she was naked while doing laundry, and anyone could see everything with just a slight glance back.
Unfortunately, Huang Cao was completely absorbed in her art, and even captured a wild Originium bug, cutting off its tender flesh.
After washing the clothes, Arturo took a deep breath and immersed her youthful body in the cool foot bath water.
She likes to contemplate life while taking a bath.
She used to feel her body was ice-cold when she took hot baths, as if the world was full of malice towards her.
But now, a flame seems to be burning in my heart, rekindling my desire for life.
I am no longer alone.
However, the piece of wood cooking nearby looked rather "lonely," though this was Arturo's own opinion.
The timing of a girl's bath is often unpredictable.
Arturo was surprised to find that the guy cooking had prepared soap for him, and it was the famous Utopia brand at that.
This brand of soap is quite expensive, but it boasts a variety of benefits, including relieving fatigue and keeping skin moisturized.
A ten-minute shower leaves you smelling fresh all day.
With a splash, Arturo got out of the bathtub, which was surrounded by plants, and took out his pajamas and underwear from the bag hanging beside him and put them on.
Don't ask why there are pajamas while traveling in the wilderness; after all, who could have predicted that some guy would insist on walking?
Watching Huang Cao intently cooking beside the iron pot, Arturo pinched his own thigh with his fingers; it was soft and snow-white.
My black stockings, which I had just washed, were still drying on the rock. At the fastest rate, they should be completely dry by tomorrow morning.
Looking at the boy's snow-white shirt behind him, Arturo's lips curled into a wicked smile. He tiptoed barefoot onto the soft sand.
As she approached the boy, she slightly raised her right leg, intending to poke him with her toes...
Before her toes even touched the other's skin, several vines suddenly sprouted from the soft sand, hanging the mischievous angel directly from the ceiling.
"That's very impolite. A woman stepping on the back of an adult man is not something a proper lady would do."
Huang Cao slowly scooped up a spoonful of hot soup, tasted it, and then said...
As the ruler of a country, he still needs to maintain a certain air, even if the other party is unaware of it.
"Ms. Arturo, we are merely business partners, but please be mindful of the distance between us when we communicate."
Such an official tone.
Arturo was taken aback by the boy's cold tone; it was the first time the boy had ever shown such a serious expression. He nodded and was then put down.
"Sorry, I was just joking."
Arturo bent slightly, revealing her breasts through her thin long dress, her apology full of sincerity.
"It's alright, just be more careful next time." Huang Cao waved her hand to indicate that she didn't mind, and then handed the prepared meat soup to the other person.
Arturo held the hot soup in both hands, took a sip, and his eyes widened instantly.
It's so delicious! And it's savory too.
As a Lateran, Arturo prefers sweet flavors and doesn't like salty tastes.
But this was the first time she had tasted such a perfectly seasoned savory soup.
The saltiness was slightly on the lighter side, and combined with the chunks of some kind of arthropod meat in the bowl, the taste was absolutely wonderful.
Wait, arthropods?
Arturo awkwardly picked up a piece of meat from the soup with his chopsticks. "Mr. Huang, if I may ask, what kind of animal is this?"
"These wild Originium bug that I just caught. Don't worry, I've removed all the inedible parts; what's left is perfect, lean meat, and they won't get Originium Infection."
Arturo swallowed hard, but ultimately, lured by the delicious food, he put aside his reservations.
Who cares, let's eat first.
But this guy's cooking skills are really good!
It's not surprising that so many women like him.
After finishing her meal, Arturo couldn't help but think to herself, but a question still lingered in her mind.
So when night fell and they were both in their sleeping bags, she finally couldn't help but ask:
"Mr. Huang, why were you so considerate in helping me the other day?"
Huang Cao shifted inside her sleeping bag. "There's no particular reason. I just don't want to see someone commit an irreparable mistake for some reason. If I can save them, I will."
"I just wanted to save you, there was no other reason. Now that your inner conflict has been resolved, our entanglement should also end after we parted ways in the capital."
"Let alone you, even if it were just an ordinary child, I would still choose to save them, because there's nothing I'd lose. What everyone says is a waste of time isn't a waste for me."
Huang Cao decided to get involved based on the plot and emotions. Although Tu Tu's strength has never been discussed much, she is still the captain of a mining team in the life calculation.
It won't hurt to lend a hand, and you never know when you might need this angel in the future.
They simply wanted to help me, without any ulterior motives whatsoever.
