Chapter Eighty-Four: Night in the Wilderness
As expected, everyone did not make it to the next village. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
One had to spend a night in the wilderness, and the only thing to be thankful for: it didn't rain this night.
When it rains, stay in the wilderness, that's what you do.
You have to endure wet clothes, no place to start a fire, and danger everywhere, and no fire, these things are very sinful.
Without the deterrence of bright flames, you must keep your eyes open and pay attention to everything around you, those hungry animals don't care if it's raining or not, for them, every meal counts, they never waste time.
Many times, hungry wolves will start hunting under the pouring rain, and that is the best weather for them.
The sound of heavy rain hitting the ground will completely drown out their running sound, and the splash of water on their bodies will mask their smell.
They can effortlessly clump their prey around and then bite off their necks.
But even if there is a fire, there will be animals that don't mind taking a risk, such as... Mouse.
As the animals with the widest living area, they have a strong ability to reproduce to the extreme, and they also have a strong digestive system, what people can eat, they eat, and what people can't eat, they also eat, just like this little thing that Albert is now grasping in his hand, it tries to steal the dry food placed next to him through a hole in the ground, this little thing has a [three-dimensional sense of smell], and the aroma of food is like a candle in the dark leading it to take risks, but unfortunately, it did not succeed.
"There are quite a lot of rats here. He tossed it at random, observing its physiology, "What do you say, what will the rats smell like here?"
"I don't know, maybe it's a bit like chicken?" Cecilia also held a mouse in her hand, she played with it, as if she was holding some stuffed animal, "I often eat fried rats in my hometown, it tastes good, rats in the natural environment taste good, but they can't be eaten in the city, they stink." ”
There are quite a few rats here, and they are very clever, and if it weren't for their unusually sensitive senses, maybe the food would have been stolen.
"Then when I get to your hometown, I must taste it. ”
"Anytime, hee-hee, it tastes really good. ”
Perhaps sensing that death was imminent, the little mice kept writhing and gnawing their fingers, but they were still too small in front of humans, especially in front of [professionals], which made them feel like they were tickling and comfortable.
He pressed slightly, then spread his hand out, and the mouse suddenly stopped moving: its bones were crushed all at once.
Her way of exterminating rats was better, and the [Mage's Hand] (telekinesis) directly broke its neck.
Then both of them threw the small animal in their hands into the fire pit at the same time.
"Squeak~---"
Oh, they didn't seem to be dead yet, they screamed and jumped, and the strong vitality made the process seem long for them, and then, finally, there was no movement at all, and Albert clearly saw two little charred things.
He had eaten rats, and he used to rummage through the garbage heap when he was hungry and panicked.
He roasted the rats on the fire and treated them as open meat.
She eats rats because of some ethnic and ancestral customs.
So it's normal for two people to talk about how mice eat, please keep one thing in mind: Cecilia is the [cat man] of the [orc branch], although I didn't deliberately lower her IQ and then add something as a cute point of "mouth fetish", her race is this after all, and there are some places that are different from people, such as sleeping late, night vision, and strong balance.
She used to drag him out at midnight to run two laps, catch mice and climb trees, and then pull him from the canopy of a dozen meters high.
Just because many habits are completely different from human beings, two people quarreled in the first two or three years, although they were soon forgotten by the two of them, which couple would never quarrel? And which couple never quarreled? In the very beginning, they quarreled, and then they didn't, and now, they don't quarrel at all.
As for now, Albert would often be dragged to climb trees in the middle of the night to catch mice and then challenge the limits of his balance, but he was used to it.
With his physical fitness, these are nothing, and his biological clock has been adjusted almost for so many years.
"I said, can you stop talking about this?" One of the girls in the newcomer had a little problem with the topic of rats, "Rats are disgusting!" "Are you afraid of mice?" "Well, I've been afraid since I was a kid." ”
"Then you'd better get over this quickly, you should have grown up in the city, right?"
"Indeed, what's wrong?"
"You're still asking me what's wrong, see for yourself. He pointed to the hole in the ground, "These are all dug by rats, and their food, shelter and reproduction are in them, which means that right now, maybe there are rats digging into the grass roots under the place where you are sitting." ”
"Ah~~!!---" the girl screamed and stood up suddenly.
She stamped her foot hard, glared at him fiercely, and then turned and sat down in the crowd not far away.
Albert shrugged his shoulders and said innocently: "It was meant to be." ”
"Indeed. Cecilia also pouted and glanced at the man, "I don't think those bugs and rats are anything to be afraid of, I really don't understand why human women are afraid of this." ”
"Maybe it's evolutionary?" ”
The wilderness does have a lot of dangers, but the night view here is good.
The stars in the sky were unusually bright, like the Milky Way.
There were no mosquitoes around now, they were all attracted by the fire, and flew away with the light, and then turned into a wisp of green smoke, he took out two skewers of roast meat from the space, manipulated the heat energy to heat them, and handed her a bunch, which had been prepared a long time ago, and even the ingredients were prepared on it.
The others had very good noses, and soon someone came over with a smell.
"Eh, brother, do you have more barbecue?"
"Yes. He took a hard bite, "How many other kinds do I have here, pigs, cows, sheep, chickens, ducks, fish, which one do you want?"
"Hey, you're quite good here, give us some!"
The man screamed, turned to the big guy, and beckoned, "Eh, brothers, come here for a big meal! Barbecue whole meat feast! Someone in our team has brought a lot! Come and try it!" "Oh oh! Great, you can improve the food!" "I haven't eaten well in the past few days!"
The other brothers quickly reacted and came here to ask for food, cheering one after another.
"Eh, the barbecue is complete, who has the wine?" "I have!" "I have it too!
"Whew~~!――――――"
The men imitated the howl of a wolf and raised their wine glasses.
A nice bunch of people, aren't they?
