"Great, this is the cultivation to become stronger!" Xue Ji jumped three feet high in place with joy. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The war in Mingzhou continues, and it seems to go on endlessly. The power of the empire was attacked from many sides, but because of the emergence of some strong defenders, the stormy empire actually stabilized again.

Coupled with the discord between those rebels, the shattered empire actually controls more than half of the area. More than half of the rest of the country has been designated as a war zone, and many places have been deserted by the year-round fires. If such a thing happened in this world, it would probably be an apocalyptic tragedy. However, in the ancient world, after the elimination of humans as a type of creature, the local landscape did not change much, but the number of other creatures that were brutal increased.

Old cities were broken down, and in search of peace, large numbers of people fled to what was once a barren land and re-established settlements. Kenny's toenails, where Kylorn and Yukihime currently live, are one such settlement.

It is said to be a settlement, but in fact, it is about the same size as a backward village in the present world. In total, there are only about 100 families, living around a small lake. People mainly live by hunting, and of course vegetables and other plants are also cultivated, but they are far less than the hunter's business. After all, in such an era, the number of dolphin creatures even exceeds that of humans, and the big fish roaming in this lake even exceed the people here.

Yukihime is a famous hunter here. And Kellon, this guy has always lived a leisurely and comfortable life without doing things, citing his old age and old bones. Occasionally blocked by the angry Yukihime, Kelloon threw out a sentence, "This is the instruction of the gods, I am a sage, understand? ”

The first time they said this was when they first came here. The people here are very hospitable, and they casually lend them a place near the lake to build a house, of course, all by Yukihime's hands, and Kellon just directs her actions, and at the same time adds a righteous and awe-inspiring sentence, "It's all the gods, I'm guiding you, you know? ”

Yukihime sometimes asks rhetorically, "If I do this, can I defeat the Storm Knight?"

"Probably...... Hehe. That's what Kelloon always replied.

A week after that, the house was built according to Kailoen's wishes, with three bedrooms and two living rooms, and a fishing platform that extended to the lake. Kelloon used to fish there, often summoning a few rough villagers to join him.

Once, Yukihime dragged back a dolphin creature about the size of their house, and the whole village was alarmed. When the news reached Kellon's ears, he nodded lightly and said, "It's her, it's not bad." ”

Yukihime stopped him on the Diaoyu Tai and said to him, "I've been hunting for a month, when will I start practicing those spells?"

"According to the gods, you'll have to hunt for another month, but how about trying to catch some living creatures and come back?"

So Yukihime catches the dolphin creatures for another month, and Kellon is helping the villagers deal with the huge dolphin creatures in addition to fishing. As a result of Yukihime's excessive efforts, large creatures in the vicinity have become rare, and many villagers have come to express their dissatisfaction with Kellon.

So Kelloon relayed the villagers' words to Yukihime, and told her that it looks like you'll only have to catch them alive.

Another week passed, and Yukihime didn't even catch a single creature, but she was often seen coming back in disgrace. Fortunately, the previous accumulation was enough, and Kellon would not complain about her, at most he would laugh at the efficiency of her actions.

"Are you still a sage?" Finally, one day, Yukihime erupted and was about to slash Kellon with her sword.

But Kellon was unmoved and said, "Yukihime, this is all the meaning of the gods, you have to cultivate, otherwise you will not be able to become a real brave." ”

"But what's the point of chasing those prey every day!" said Yukihime frantically.

"Rest assured, God will be with you. Kelloon comforted her.

A month later, the climate of Mingzhou changed, and it was the season for all kinds of creatures to reproduce. Interestingly, humans and other creatures like to reproduce during this season. The reason for the widespread spread among the population is that children born during this time are the most likely to become royal families or asylums of the continent. As for where this legend came from, it was as far back as the early days of mankind.

The people of the village were busy reproducing offspring, and hunting was put aside for the time being. Of course, there are also some people who don't have to breed offspring, and they still go out hunting at this time, and go out hunting during this truce, such as Yukihime.

One day, Yukihime brought back a snow-white beast, I don't know if it was a dolphin or a hairy creature.

When Kellon saw this, he said, "Ah, you've finally got one alive." Okay, let's roast it and eat it today. ”

Snow Hime defended the snow-white beast and said viciously to Kellon, "No, it's too much to attack such a child anyway. ”

"Then wait until you grow up to eat it. ”

“…… Yes, if you raise it and eat it, then it's no problem. ”

When he said this, no one realized that there was a problem, this guy eats meat. And the bigger you grow, the more you eat.

So when it had enough capital to be eaten, Yukihime trembled and raised the sword in her hand, wanting to break it. But after hesitating there for a long time, she didn't let go of Dirandot's determination. For the first time, it seemed wrong for her to kill a creature just to eat it. But what's wrong? When people are hungry, they have to eat, and if they want to eat, they have to kill something else, otherwise they will have to be eaten by something else, and this is a matter of course.

So after struggling for a long time, Xue Ji was still ready to swing Dirandot. Just then Kelloon stopped her and said to her, "You don't have to live according to the rules of survival, it's your prerogative as a strong man. If you don't want to kill it, let it go. ”

Yukihime breathed a sigh of relief, since the sages had said so, what else did she have to refute. That night she found a random place to throw the beast away, and the next day the snow-white creature came back. So Yukihime was moved to tears, and at the same time accepted this natural "gift" with gratitude.
