Chapter 1797: Food Problems
[Snakeskin Gloves] (Inferior) Defense +1, Equipment Level Requirements: Level 2.
Looking at the gloves that appeared in the virtual backpack, Jia Zhengjin sighed: "This habit is really hard to break, and when I see a corpse, I can't help but touch it......"
The gloves are really bad, at least for Jia Zhengjin, who is used to wearing artifact armor, they are garbage in the garbage.
He took out the snakeskin gloves from the virtual backpack, threw them on the ground with a look of disgust, turned to the mouse, crouched down and shook its body vigorously.
The rat's body was so stiff that it felt like it had been dead for a long time, and its heartbeat was barely palpable.
Was it just scared to death?
Jia Zhengjin frowned, reached out and slapped its mouth vigorously: "Hey, wake up, are you still alive?"
At first, the rat didn't react, but after a while it suddenly opened its eyes, then rolled over and checked its body in a panic: "Am I dead?
Jia Zhengjin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it was still alive.
But it's also quite speechless.
"Keane, where are we, Hunter?" said the rat, turning to find himself unscathed.
"Wow!" Jia Zhengjin pointed sideways to the pile of ashes.
"What do you mean? These ashes ......" the mouse looked dazed.
"The swamp serpent, it was burned to ashes by me!" Jia Zhengjin shrugged and stood up.
"The swamp serpent, the hunter just now?" the mouse was dumbfounded, its mouth wide open, and its gaze kept moving between Jia Zhengjin and the giant snake's ashes, "Burned to ashes?"
Faced with the shocked rat, Jia Zhengjin spread his hands and did not answer.
"Huh, what is this......" Seeing that he did not answer, the mouse looked at the snakeskin glove on the ground, bent down to pick it up, and looked at it curiously. Then he suddenly exclaimed, "Wow - you not only killed the hunter, but you also made gloves out of its skin......? And what about the meat of the Hunters? It's big enough for all of us to eat for more than a month!"
Facing the eager gaze of the mouse, Jia Zhengjin pointed to the ashes on the ground.
"What do you mean?"
"Don't you understand? It's all burned to ashes. ”
"Huh, it's all burned to ashes, what do you mean?"
"Literally! That's all that's left for the gloves. ”
"Isn't it?!" The mouse suddenly lay on the ground and wailed, "That's more than a month's worth of food for the whole family!If I can bring it back, I won't need to hunt until my younger siblings are born!Why is it burned to ashes~What a pity~"
"Don't howl!" Jia Zhengjin watched a mouse crying in front of him, crying for a bunch of giant snake meat, and was even more speechless, "I don't know who said to help me delay time and let me run quickly." As a result, he fainted directly in the next second......"
The mouse's cry stopped abruptly, and there were still tears in the corners of his eyes, but he retorted seriously: "I didn't faint, it was the talent of the race to protect itself." ”
"What? Self-preservation talent?"
"That's right, just now that's the [fake death] ability that we Moss people are born with, and when we encounter too powerful hunters, we will subconsciously enter the state, exactly like a corpse. Most hunters prefer live food, so if you're not too lucky, you'll be able to get away with it. Wiping tears from his eyes, the rat replied, "I don't want to do that either, but the hunter is so terrible that the body instinctively enters a state of suspended animation......"
"Forget it, it's no threat to me anyway. Jia Zhengjin didn't care too much.
"But Keane, you can kill such a terrible hunter? You can be an alien!" the mouse looked excited the next moment, "How did you do it? How did you do it? Can you teach me? If I have such a powerful ability, I don't have to worry about hunting!"
That is the characteristic of the gods, and it is strange that it can be taught! Although he said that he could, Jia Zhengjin would not like to give these characteristics away.
Facing the mouse with an expectant face, he could only shake his head.
"Can't you tell me how to kill it?" said the rat.
"It's not that I can't tell you, it's just that you can't use my method. Jia Zhengjin said indifferently.
"Oh, that's it?" the mouse nodded immediately, fiddling with the snakeskin glove, "Okay......!
"Take it if you want," Jia Zhengjin replied casually, "I was going to throw it away." ”
"Thank you!" the mouse excitedly put on his gloves and moved his paws, "It's very suitable! It protects the paws without hindering movement. Do you really give it to me?"
Jia Zhengjin didn't bother to answer, and nodded casually.
The garbage in his eyes is regarded as a treasure by mice, and he looks very happy.
After a while, the mouse finally remembered what was going on: "By the way, are the cockroaches and the water tribe still fighting?"
"It's over!" Turning his head to look at the video screen, the cockroach tribe and the water tribe on the lotus leaf were both defeated, and a small part of their members were left to break away from the battle.
The cockroaches spread their wings and flew away, and the water tribe jumped back into the pond, as if they were all saying that they wanted to find a helper to fight again next time?
However, the Nuwa has not been discovered, so you can rest assured.
"They're all gone?" said the mouse, looking better, "in that case, we can go out hunting!" Father and Mother are still at home, waiting for me to come home with dinner. Keane, if you don't mind, go to my house first? It will take about seven days to go back and forth to the city, and I have to get my food ready before I can go out, otherwise my father and mother will starve to death. ”
"Hmm!" Jia Zhengjin needs this mouse to lead the way and find a "city person" who is more familiar with the situation in this world, "How long will it take?"
"What?" the mouse looked back.
"I said, how long does it take to store food for seven days?" Jia Zhengjin asked.
The mouse thought for a moment: "What I can catch now is probably the small prey of the goldenfly larvae." And they have to avoid their colony and wait for a lone larvae. If you succeed in catching a larvae, you can probably do it with a dinner at home. So it will take at least ten days to get it together, provided that the weather is good and the luck is good......"
"It's too troublesome!" Jia Zhengjin shook his head and said, "You said that the swamp giant snake just now is enough for the whole family to eat for more than a month?"
"Yes!" said this, and the mouse looked sorry again.
"Then go grab another one!" Jia Zhengjin said casually.
"Huh?" the mouse's face changed dramatically, "I, I, I can't ...... I'm not that good......"
"Didn't say you!" for a direct startaway...... Oh, no! Seeing the rat pretending to be dead by the giant snake, Jia Zhengjin certainly didn't have expectations, "I'll be in charge of catching and preparing a month's worth of food for your family." You're in charge of taking me to town!"
"It's not good, it's not good~" The mouse hurriedly shook his head, "You have to do this kind of thing by yourself when hunting." If I rely on you this time, I will have the same psychology next time. It's not a good thing for me! And it's food in our own house, and I can't let anyone else get it for me!"
"Quite principled?" Jia Zhengjin looked at the mouse for a few seconds and thought for a moment, "Do you have to hunt yourself?"
"Yes!" the mouse nodded vigorously.
