Chapter 3860: Different Treatment
This was actually just half a pot of leftovers. Qiao Mu glanced at them expressionlessly and silently handed the soup pot to Qiu Fu.
Tears actually sparkled in his eyes, and he was utterly grateful to Qiao Mu.
The fifteen people gathered around the pot. With no chopsticks or bowls, they directly grabbed the mushroom stew with their hands, eating it with blissful expressions, as if they were enjoying some exquisite delicacy.
Qin Fifth Young Master put down his chopsticks, looking at his schoolmates' gaunt faces, and suddenly felt quite unwell.
Weren't they all spirit realm cultivators? Logically, they should be much stronger than him, an ordinary person.
Why did they end up so miserable after their spiritual sense and power were sealed and they were in a different environment? Wasn't this a problem?
Qiao Mu looked down at her small hands. She knew her own cooking skills well.
It was just barely edible stuff; cooking for her meant simply heating things up!
Looking at Qiu Fu and the others' expressions, it was as if her cooking was incredibly delicious.
She thought back to her previous life, when she was extremely poor and had to forage for wild vegetables with her team. At that time, soaked wild vegetables felt like the best delicacy in the world.
Seeing Qiu Fu, Lu Pinwen, and the others' appearance, Qiao Mu's heart stirred slightly.
When a person is extremely hungry, even a mouthful of wild vegetable soup is probably the most delicious food in the world.
Her life had been too good in this lifetime; sometimes she couldn't recall those desolate times from her previous life.
This half-pot of mushroom stew, if it were in her most difficult days in her previous life, would have been something priceless.
Waste was shameful! The little one silently repeated this three times in her heart, resolving never to waste ingredients again.
The half-pot of mushroom stew for fifteen people was gone in minutes.
Of course, it wouldn't be enough. After all, thirteen of the fifteen people were grown men; half a pot of mushroom stew would barely be enough to fill a tooth gap.
Qiao Mu looked at them wordlessly and said indifferently, "Do you want white steamed buns? The kind without filling."
At a time like this, who cared about filling or not? All fifteen heads nodded vigorously at her.
Qiao Mu pulled out thirty white buns from her inner world and tossed them to them.
Two for each person, they devoured them, eating heartily.
Qiao Mu looked at Qiu Fu and asked expressionlessly, "How long have you been hungry?"
Qiu Fu thought for a moment. "About as long as we've been separated from you."
It was also their team's bad luck. Not long after entering the forest, they encountered a pack of wild wolves. During their escape, two team members were injured, and a alchemist went missing...
So, after that, their team was in trouble!
Without an alchemist, they couldn't undo the sealing pills on themselves at all.
The seven of them also had to protect a female team member. These past few days had been truly miserable.
The past was simply too painful to recall, Qiu Fu felt a pain in his gut.
Qiao Mu glanced at them. "Is your team missing someone?"
"Yes, not long after entering the forest, the alchemist got separated from our team during a hurried retreat."
"We've been searching for that alchemist in the Phoenix Wood Forest ever since, but unfortunately, we haven't been able to find him."
That pathetic?
Qiao Mu swept her gaze over them. "No wonder you all have no spiritual power fluctuations. So, the alchemist got left behind."
