When Yun Xiaoxiao went out, people were already gathered around the dog enclosure.
"What's going on? What happened?" asked those who arrived later.
"It seems... it seems there's a scorpion. All the dogs are frightened by it."
"A scorpion? What kind of scorpion? Let see."
Yun Xiaoxiao followed the others, looking in the direction soone was pointing.
There, they saw a jet-black scorpion covered in a chitinous armor, clinging tightly to the ground. It was staring nacingly at a large German Shepherd locked in a cage.
The enormous size difference didn't intimidate the scorpion. Instead, it stood tall, raising its stinger high, exuding an imposing aura.
The German Shepherd was scared, barking incessantly.
Suddenly, the scorpion darted forward, dodging the dog's attack. It leaped onto the back of the dog's leg and plunged its stinger down viciously.
After striking, it swiftly escaped outside the cage.
Within monts, the large, fierce-looking German Shepherd began to convulse, foaming at the mouth, and finally collapsed, its eyes rolling back.
The other dogs, now even more terrified, began barking louder, thrashing about in their cages.
The onlookers were shocked.
"That scorpion's venom is so potent!"
"How terrifying!"
While everyone was frightened by the scorpion's deadliness, Yun Xiaoxiao's eyes narrowed into slits, revealing a hint of admiration.
This scorpion was impressive – agile, steady yet precise, and ruthlessly efficient!
"Quick, catch it! If we don't kill it and it escapes, sneaking into our rooms and stinging us like that, we're done for!" soone suddenly shouted in panic.
"Yes, you're right! We can't let it go! It's too dangerous, we must kill it now!"
"Everyone, let's get it together! We can't let it escape!"
People often fear the unknown, so they were eager to nip this danger in the bud.
And so, so grabbed bricks, others shovels... all chasing after the black scorpion, trying to smash it.
But the scorpion was clever. Just as the first brick was about to hit it, it scurried under one of the dog cages.
When people went to look for it again, it had vanished.
In the farthest corner, there was a small, pitch-black hole.
"Damn, the scorpion got away."
"Do you think it'll co back?"
"Everyone be on guard today. If you spot it, shout imdiately, and others should co help right away."
With the scorpion gone, the dogs in the enclosure gradually cald down, and everything returned to normal.
The crowd of onlookers dispersed.
Yun Xiaoxiao returned to her room.
Just as she was about to close the door, she noticed sothing small on the cabinet opposite her.
Wasn't it the scorpion that had just escaped?
She closed the door nonchalantly.
The girl and the scorpion faced off, neither making a move.
After a while, seeing that the scorpion had no intention of leaving, Yun Xiaoxiao took a small piece of raw at from her spatial storage and, with a large stride, placed it on the ground.
After doing so, she retreated to her original position.
The scorpion sized up Yun Xiaoxiao, then looked at the raw at on the ground. Only then did it cautiously crawl down from the cabinet, inching towards the at step by step.
It first extended one leg to prod the at, and finding no danger, slowly approached and began to eat.
Yun Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up. This scorpion was quite cautious, and seed to possess a hint of intelligence.
Wasn't the mutation of animals and plants supposed to begin only in the fourth year of the apocalypse, after the acid rain fell?
Could this scorpion be an exception?
Indeed, after the black scorpion finished the small piece of raw at, it looked as if it hadn't had enough. It raised its head, staring directly at Yun Xiaoxiao.
Its deanor seed to say, "Is there more? I want more."
Yun Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and took out another small piece.
After a while, the little black scorpion finished eating again.
This ti, it didn't linger. It turned around, its rear end raised haughtily, and squeezed out through the small gap under the door, without even giving Yun Xiaoxiao a glance.
Yun Xiaoxiao: ......
Huh, this little scorpion was quite amusing, eating and running, acting like a little lord.
"Trouble! Big trouble! There are lots of zombies outside!"
Suddenly, an anxious shout ca from outside the door.
Yun Xiaoxiao raised an eyebrow.
Zombies?
It must be the dogs' barking earlier that attracted the nearby zombies.
Rembering her mission, Yun Xiaoxiao imdiately walked out.
Everyone in the dog farm had gathered at the main gate.
Soone was peering through a small hole, observing the situation outside and constantly updating the others.
"There's one, two... a total of fifteen zombies approaching, and more behind them!"
"We're dood! If more and more zombies co, won't they just overrun this place?"
"That can't be, right? The gate is quite high, they shouldn't be able to get in."
"But even if they can't get in, if they keep lingering outside, we can't get out either. Before long, we'll run out of food. Then, it's still a dead end for us!"
Everyone discussed in hushed voices.
Worry was etched on every face.
Just as Yun Xiaoxiao walked over, soone spotted her.
How could they have forgotten? There was still a formidable little girl in the dog farm!
She had easily killed Fatty and the others, so dealing with the zombies outside should be no problem for her.
Imdiately, everyone turned hopeful gazes towards Yun Xiaoxiao.
"Little girl, there are many zombies outside, each looking fierce and terrifying. Can you go out and deal with them all?"
"Yeah, you're the most capable among us. Please go kill them all quickly. If we let them keep roaring out there and attract more zombies, we're finished."
"That's right, little girl, you're so powerful, killing zombies must be effortless for you. We'll cheer for you from here!"
Everyone chid in, one after another, as if Yun Xiaoxiao had to go, and not going would endanger everyone.
Yun Xiaoxiao coolly swept her gaze over everyone present.
Including Jiang Rui'an and her group, there were twelve people in total – eight n and four won, ranging from 23-24 to 45 years old.
Logically, considering their physique and age, they should be the strongest fighting force. Even if each person dealt with one zombie, it would be enough.
But now, they were all pressuring a re five-year-old child to go outside and risk her life.
Thinking about it, it was quite laughable.
Yun Xiaoxiao directly sat down on a nearby wooden stool, leisurely curling her lips into a carefree smile.
"To prevent them from attracting more zombies, uncles and aunties, you should go kill them quickly. Co on! Work hard! All for survival! I believe in you~"
Of course, she could go. After all, she needed to kill zombies to complete her mission.
But unfortunately, she was born with a rebellious streak.
They wanted her to go so badly? Heh, now she didn't want to go at all.
If she wasn't happy, others shouldn't be happy either.
When others weren't happy, she beca happy.
Isn't there a saying that goes:
Let go of personal qualities, enjoy a despicable life.
Reject ntal exhaustion, go crazy directly when issues arise.
Rather than wronging yourself, better to trouble others.
How well said! Truly words of wisdom!
