Chapter Seventy-Six: The Beast Strikes

The two stared at each other for a while, and then Charlene got up, left, and threw the little fox Chu Ci on the ground.

I don't have much experience with women at all, and I can't deal with Chu Ci: ......

Isn't he really a babysitter?

I remember that this girl didn't have such a little temper before~~

Girl, it's not good to have a temper like this!

Charlene's pace of walking is not slow, but it will take several days to get out of the forest.

However, there was no attack from the beast anyway, and Charlene was not in a hurry, but found a sleeping compartment from the items left by the original owner.

Every day when it gets dark, I stop to make a fire to cook, wake up and take the sleep warehouse to eat, and stop at noon to have a lunch.

It should be the day of "escape", because there is no desire to escape successfully, but it is a little more boring, so she simply lived a little outing.

She couldn't escape anyway, so why bother?

Of course, what it feels like to be unceremoniously thrown by Charlene to "keep vigil" outside the sleeping cabin every night is another matter.

When night fell again, Charlene had already found a fairly gentle place to settle in advance.

The place is next to a cliff with a cave next to it. Although the cave does not have many forks, it is very deep, and it seems that it once belonged to the cave of some strange beast. At the innermost point, it is divided into several small holes, which are probably resting places, places to store food, and maybe places to excrete.

But it's been a long time since the beast died, and this place isn't actually facing the sun, and there isn't much shelter around, so there aren't any creatures in it.

Although the mess inside is indispensable, at least Chu Ci, who has been working hard for several days, can finally relax a little. Therefore, cleaning or something is not a problem.

After all, he can't be as stupid and bold as Charlene, even if there has been no strange beast appearing, it can't be as unworried as Charlene, but it is still in a state of constant vigilance.

The environment in the jungle has always been complicated, and even the alien beasts in it may not be able to grasp all of them, who knows if there will be any accidents?

With this cave to rely on, at least he can relax a little during the night "vigil", and he doesn't have to worry about being attacked from all sides.

Moreover, the abnormality of the keel in Xia Lin's hand always made Chu Ci feel faintly uneasy. Even if it is a skull in a keel, when stored in space, it should not have such an impact.

Another point that made Chu Ci worry was that the keel in Charlene's hand, which he had studied, was the front leg of the strange beast thousands of years ago.

He remembered that the beast's two front leg bones were supposed to be given to the descendants of a hero who had died in that war. And that family has long disappeared in the history of the Federation, how could it suddenly appear in the hands of Charlene now?

Chu Ci didn't think that Xia Lin's parents were descendants of that family back then, but he couldn't know much more about Xia Lin's mother's family, and although the Xia family has a longer history than Hao Lian's family, it is only a century-old family......

After tidying up the cave, Xia Lin came out and saw Chu Ci sitting by the fire in front of the cave, adding firewood for a while, and looking thoughtful.

In the past, Chu Ci would not turn into a human form, after all, none of them knew when the Yu family would catch up.

But today, because Chu Ci was going to help Charlene clean up the cave, he temporarily turned into a human form. Anyway, on this big night, the place is still very empty around it, not to mention whether the people of the Yu family will come over at this time, even if someone really approaches, they can find it quickly.

"What's wrong? What are you thinking? Throwing two or three mutated sweet potatoes from this world into the fire, Charlene turned her head curiously and looked at Chu Ci.

To tell the truth, she is not without mustard and rejection for the youngest major general of the Federation beside her, the rich and handsome man with a high gold content.

After all, everyone is not a class of people, not only the environment in which they grew up is different, but also their attitudes towards the world are completely different.

For Charlene, she is a rice worm and a major general with real power in the federation like Chu Ci, that is, people who live at two extremes, and disliking each other is the right way.

It's just that maybe she is used to the environment of the last days, so she is not afraid of the anger of the person in front of her. And Chu Ci himself may be a little cold-blooded, but as long as he doesn't annoy this guy, he is not strict.

Otherwise, Qi Tianze's guy would not know Chu Ci's identity and the nature of his work, and he would dare to provoke Chu Ci again and again.

Therefore, after the two had to be tied together, Charlene's attitude towards Chu Ci was much more natural than that towards Yang and Priest.

Or, is she just as fearless as Qi Tianze?

"It's fine." Chu Ci shook his head, not planning to say more about this to Xia Lin, but looked at the two potatoes the size of two fists of an adult man that Xia Lin had touched out of his hands, "What is this?" ”

It looks a little familiar, it seems to be something that Charlene dug out of the ground at noon?

"Potatoes." Charlene took out a knife specially used to peel the skin from her own space, and while peeling the potatoes very neatly, she answered Chu Ci's question, "I'll fry you a sour and spicy shredded potatoes in a while, this is my specialty dish~"

She didn't know how many times she had made this kind of home-cooked dish. Especially this kind of dish that goes well with rice is her favorite.

After coming here, she found that many of the crops of her time still existed, but they had all mutated, and some of them couldn't even tell what the original varieties were, and she regretted it for a long time!

Therefore, when she occasionally saw potatoes exposed on the ground on the road at noon, which seemed to have been cut out by some omnivorous low-level alien beast, she was surprised for a long time!

But what made her even more satisfied was that the potatoes were more crisp than the pre-apocalyptic potatoes, so they should have tasted better.

Thinking of the taste of sour and spicy shredded potatoes in her memory, Charlene became more and more impatient.

Seeing the tool in Xia Lin's hand, Chu Ci squinted his eyes slightly, and then looked at the potato in Xia Lin's hand and smiled, "Your ability is very useful." ”

Charlene glanced at Chu Ci, put the peeled potatoes into the clean water next to them, and then picked up the next potato and continued.

She actually likes spicy food, especially in winter. And Chu Ci, as a fire-based ability, is of course very fond of foods that contain fire-based energy.

As for whether it is chili peppers or what, who knows? However, Charlene is still quite happy that the tastes of the two can be unified.

Although her tastes change with the season and mood.

"What are you trying to squeeze me again?"

Hearing Xia Lin say this, Chu Ci raised his hand to support his forehead with some embarrassment. His image in front of Charlene seems to have been set. And this image is definitely not the one he wants.

"Isn't it?" Seeing Chu Ci's actions, Xia Lin blinked and asked angrily.

Chu:......

Well, he just thinks that Charlene's abilities, if put to good use, will bring a lot of benefits to the current Federation. In a sense, it is......

Well, it's light to say that the squeezing is light.

Seeing Chu Ci's embarrassment, Charlene expressed her satisfaction. I was in a happy mood, and even the action of peeling potatoes in my hands was a little faster.

Hmph, don't think she's really a bun, swallow her anger and bully!

After peeling the potatoes, Charlene took out a small chopping board, then cut the potatoes into shredded potatoes, cut the peppers that were secretly picked from the space with mental power, cut the ginger and garlic, and prepared other condiments.

Seeing that Charlene was stir-frying the vegetables, Chu Ci opened the rice that Charlene had cooked in advance on the side and began to serve the rice.

After staying with Charlene for a long time, Chu Ci didn't notice that he seemed to be getting more and more at home.

In the past, let alone serving rice, he didn't even know all the utensils in the kitchen. Anyway, there are housekeeping machines in these years, isn't it?

Not to mention that he usually doesn't have the opportunity to cook by himself whether he is in the family or in the army, even when he is in his own residence and doesn't want to drink nutrients, the meal is also made by the housekeeper. The only thing he has to do is probably order food at the machine?

When the two were eating, there was a jungle about 100 meters away from the cliff where the two were located, but there was a faint movement.

Chu Ci suddenly raised his head and stared vigilantly into the distance.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Chu Ci's appearance, Charlene, who was originally moved by the long-lost taste, glanced at Chu Ci distractedly.

Although there were a lot of potatoes and sweet potatoes planted in her space before, how dare she eat them openly? Even in the space, she can only use the combustibles she has worked hard to accumulate to roast or suffocate all the sweet potatoes and potatoes.

The taste is not the same as the sour and hot shredded potatoes in front of me.

"Something's coming." Chu Ci put the bowl in his hand on the ground, got up and blocked it in front of Xia Lin, "Be careful! It's coming! ”

Charlene was stunned for a moment, then quickly got up, took out the seeds of self-defense, and quickly put away the dinner that the two of them hadn't had time to eat.

Waste is a shameful act!

Seeing Xia Lin's movements, Chu Ci frowned, but did not stop it.

Soon, there were more and more voices in the jungle, although not loud, but the sound of Suosuo could clearly make people hear not one, but a group.

"It's the Wind Wolf!" After all, Chu Ci has the blood of foreign beasts, and his eyes are much better than Charlene's eyes at night.

Charlene was stunned.

Fourth-order alien beast wind wolf? What is the situation?

However, before Charlene could react, the fast-running wind wolves were already approaching.

Looking at the pair of green eyes in the jungle, at first they seemed to be fireflies, but after gradually converging, they were like ghostly fires in the dark night, even if they were used to seeing the scene of zombies in the last days, and even Charlene, who had experienced the zombie siege more than once, still couldn't help but shudder.

Helpless, there are only her and Chu Ci by her side now, and no one protects her! R1152
