After returning to the cave, Li Ji took out the large wooden bucket filled with water from the spatial ring and placed it in its original place. At this time, although it was dusk, Li Ji's exercise in the afternoon was not large, and there was no hunger in his stomach. It's just that he doesn't seem to have anything to do now, because of the restrictions of internal injuries, he can't even cultivate, so even if Li Ji is not hungry, he can only choose to start preparing dinner, it's a big deal to boil the dried meat for a long time, it's better than sitting idle, in case he doesn't want to move, wouldn't it be inertia for no reason. Moreover, Li Ji's decision was also firmly supported by the young beast, and as a foodie, it would not let go of any opportunity to eat.

Li Ji picked up a few dry firewood and walked to the simple stove made of stones, the young beast who usually behaved cute immediately became smart at this time, and took the initiative to take it with his mouth, neatly put the dry firewood in the stove, and then a fist-sized flame flew out of his mouth, and successfully lit the dry firewood, and used his actions to support Li Ji's wise decision, as if he would regret it.

Seeing that the fire had risen with the selfless help of the young beast, Li Ji helplessly pointed at the small brain of the young beast with a face of invitation and said, "You! ”

The young beast wagged its tail stupidly, gladly accepted Li Ji's compliment, and then continued to pick firewood, looking more concerned about the dinner than Li Ji.

Li Ji simply ignored the young beast that suddenly became diligent, added water to the ceramic pot and placed it on the stove, then took out the silver short knife and the jerky from the space ring, and skillfully cut the jerky into small pieces and put it into the ceramic pot, although this action has been done many times, but this is still the longest time in this project.

After finishing the jerky, he continued to cut some of the meat of the second-grade fire rabbit and put it in, still following the method used for today's noon meal, making a hodgepodge. It's just that I will add a few more fish that I just caught today, given that the meat in the pot will be stewed for a long time now, Li Ji didn't put it down so quickly, for fear that the fish would be boiled rotten, and the young beast who drank the soup in vain was cheap. Although the young beast seems to be diligent and has made a lot of efforts now, but when he thinks that its stupid and cute little mouth can be stuffed with so many things, Li Ji still wants it to be restrained, so as not to affect its cute image.

Time suddenly returned to the bland and monotonous addition of firewood, and occasionally Li Ji would also look at the situation of the stewed meat in the pot, if the water was almost dry, he had to add some water in time. As for the young beast, it was already lying on the side at this time, looking at Li Ji with a resentful look, the diligence at the beginning had long been gone, and I am afraid that it was the heat of three minutes. Of course, it can't be blamed for this, it still took a lot of dry firewood back and forth, but what it didn't expect was that Li Ji would cook for so long this time, it was almost three hours, and its little patience was exhausted two hours ago. And after that, he looked at Li Ji with such a grudge as now.

Compared to the torment of the young beast smelling the tempting fragrance of the nose and not being able to swallow it, Li Ji is much better, he is rejuvenating his appetite with the help of the fragrance emanating from the ceramic pot, looking for a sense of hunger, who makes him not as able to eat as the young beast? At such a time, the more hungry he is, the more difficult it is, just look at the young beast's unsatisfied little eyes like a little woman.

Perhaps it was the resentment of Li Ji in the young beast's heart that played a role, so that Li Ji, who had only cared about adding firewood, took out a few fish from the space ring, and put them in a ceramic pot to boil them with the jerky after processing. The cute young beast didn't know what it meant, all he could think about was that he could eat a little more tonight for what was suddenly added, as if he didn't know that this meant that its long wait was coming to an end, and the feast was about to begin, after all, those fish were not resistant to cooking, of course, even if it only took more than ten minutes, it would be enough for the young beast to suffer.

Finally, more than ten minutes passed. After tasting it a little, Li Ji gave the young beast whose saliva was about to fall to the ground with good news, that is, it was ready to eat.

This belated summoning rescued the young beast, a foodie, from the brink of collapse, and its dark wait for the food finally came to an end. And then, it's time for it to feast.

In the end, Li Ji didn't treat the young beast badly, anyway, he couldn't eat it alone, and sooner or later he would have to cheapen it, so this meal of the young beast was very open. It is worth mentioning that when the three things are mixed and cooked, the taste is really a little unclear, there is a fragrance, there is also umami, which is also accompanied by a faint fishy smell of fish. Li Ji didn't know if it was the condiments released in the jerky that eliminated most of the fishy smell, which made this pot taste unique.

After eating, Li Ji was a little emotional, he thought that these days, every time he eats, he always has to be stared at by the young beast (who let him eat not as fast as the young beast, and he still wants to play the drama of you eat a piece and I eat a piece. ）。 Therefore, after thinking about it twice, Li Ji felt that it was time to make a big bowl for the young beast alone, otherwise sooner or later the young beast would see that something was wrong.

Sleeping after eating is a habit that Li Ji has maintained since he came to this world, and he has a tendency to carry it forward, preparing to make it a tradition. Anyway, the young beast has always done this, and even it has subtly changed Li Ji, who makes the family have a unique advantage, and they can also improve their level by sleeping after eating, but the time it takes is just that Li Ji can't bear it.

Lying on the big bed, Li Ji, who was not sleepy, also forced himself to sleep, and resting early can not only get up earlier, but also help the recovery of the injury. Li Ji now fantasized that after waking up, all his injuries would be healed, and he would have enough time to improve his cultivation strength. After all, he is still very weak, and once he leaves the young beast, he will be in a precarious state, and if he continues like this, it is not something he can accept.

Li Ji tossed and turned in bed for an unknown amount of time, and finally fell asleep. As for the young beast, it has little thought but a lot of troubles, and has long since fallen asleep.

......

There was nothing to do all night, and when the sun just shimmered, Li Ji, who had been tossing for half a night before falling asleep last night, had already woken up. Probably because I slept until noon yesterday, even if I woke up so early this morning, I didn't feel sleepy, and I could see that the quality of sleep last night was pretty good.

Li Ji didn't know when the young beast woke up, anyway, when he got up, he saw the young beast open its eyes and look at him, and then continued to close its eyes and recuperate, lying motionless on the bed from beginning to end, making him can't help but wonder if the young beast would be refining the second-level magic core of the fire rabbit, after all, based on the experience of previous observations, this is very possible.

However, no matter whether the young beast was refining the demon core or lying in bed, Li Ji didn't have the time to pay attention to it at the moment, because after getting out of bed, Li Ji suddenly realized that he, who was still a little uncomfortable in his movements, did not feel a trace of discomfort in the seemingly easy process of getting up just now. After carefully examining himself, Li Ji found that his injuries had been completely healed, and under the strong recovery ability of the jerky, the damage to the organs in his abdomen had been repaired, and he could not feel any cracks.

"Hahaha...... Great!~" Li Ji laughed unconsciously, the excited laughter startled the young beast, and its body couldn't help but tremble, obviously Li Ji laughed too abruptly, so that it was not prepared at all, causing it to glare at Li Ji angrily.

Li Ji, who was in a good mood, didn't have time to care about the dissatisfaction and resentment of the young beast, and clenched his fists excitedly, feeling the sense of power that he could hold his fists with all his strength, even if that feeling was only lost for a day, Li Ji felt uneasy in his heart, because this meant that his fate could not be controlled by himself, and in the dangerous forest, this was very deadly.

Now that his injuries have healed, Li Ji has made plans for today's trip after simply having breakfast with the young beast. Just like the original plan, today's task is to challenge the second-level demonic beasts, although he already has experience in hunting second-level demonic beasts, but to be honest, in Li Ji's eyes, the strength of the second-level fire rabbit must be at the bottom of the second-level demonic beasts, and the fat all over his body has been dragged to the ground, losing most of his ability to attack and dodge, during the cooling of the magic fireball, it is like a non-moving target, this fatal flaw will undoubtedly give the opponent a chance to take advantage of, and as a person with high fire attribute resistance, he himself has an obvious advantage when dealing with fire-attribute demonic beasts。 Therefore, Li Ji decided to find other attribute demonic beasts as training targets, so as to confirm that he already had the strength to rival most second-level demonic beasts. Of course, before that, there is one more thing to do, that is, to find a second-level demonic beast, and this task is gloriously fallen to the young beast.

This forest is so big, if you look for it aimlessly, I'm afraid it will take a long time. Therefore, after some careful consideration, Li Ji decided to search downstream along the stream where he drew water, so that the efficiency of finding second-level demonic beasts might be higher, at least better than scurrying around in the forest.

Now that he had made a plan, before the sun shone into the cave, Li Ji followed the young beast on the road.

Since it was going straight to the stream, Li Ji and the young beast didn't pay much attention to the situation along the way, because it was just dawn, and the demonic beast that came out of the night should have gone back to sleep, and Li Jian also walked three times on this road, and the chance of encountering the demonic beast was not very high. So, after spending an hour on the road, the man and the beast rushed to the stream, and of course, thanks to the fact that they had just walked this road yesterday, and there were many fewer obstacles on the way.

Li Ji squatted down by the stream and took a sip with his hand, replenishing a little of the water that had evaporated and lost during the journey.

Looking at the stream flowing slowly downward, Li Ji got up and said to the young beast who already knew his plan: "Let's go!

From the voice, you can hear that Li Ji is confident.
