Volume 1: Ancient Reappearance Chapter 83: The Mysterious Boy
Yamamoto Mingyue smiled happily when he boarded, obviously knowing that the general's craftsmanship was extraordinary, and it was his favorite. The general rolled up his sleeves, and pointed like a knife, lightly scratched on the elk's belly, and scratched the tough elk skin away, only to see that he was skillful, and peeled the elk and removed the bones in two or three times, and flew up to find a place with spring water to wash the elk meat, set up a wooden frame to make a fire, and began to roast the elk.
The firelight grew, and the faces of Yamamoto Mingyue and the generals were a little red from the flames, and Yamamoto Mingyue had already eaten a few wild fruits at this time, and at this moment his eyes were staring at the roasted elk that was gradually emerging from the flames. The general slowly took out various homemade spices from his waist and added some to the meat, then took out a small bottle of sesame oil, and began to gently drip it on the elk meat. The sesame oil flows slowly down the elk meat, and is scorched by the flame below, slowly seeping into the meat. Soon, the surface of the elk meat began to turn a faint golden yellow, and the elk meat itself oozed transparent oil droplets, and the enticing aroma immediately wafted away.
The light of the fire moved lightly, illuminating the faces of the two men, as well as the small trees in the surrounding clearing. The reflection of the tall trees swayed as if the wind was howling. The general looked at the burning flames in front of him and gradually became distracted, while Yamamoto Mingyue looked at the roasted elk with a salivating look, touched his ears and cheeks, and ran to the side from time to time to break some wooden branches to join the fire.
The silent air is filled with strange and alluring scents.
In the depths of the woods, a low roar suddenly sounded: "Roar!"
The roar was low and powerful, and seemed to be far away, but it was still clearly heard, and a sense of murder quickly spread. The general woke up from his contemplation, his brows furrowed slowly, his body did not move, but his eyes gradually deepened, looking in the direction where the roar sounded. Yamamoto Mingyue put his hand on the general's shoulder, and there was no fear on his face, and he also looked back.
There was a "crackling" sound in the flames, and a branch burst open, and the scent of elk became stronger.
Three feet away, there was the dark woods, and the wind in the forest seemed to suddenly become stronger, whirring, and after that low roar was heard, there was no more sound, but the cold and murderous intent quickly approached here almost in a tangible quality.
The pupils in the general's eyes shrank slightly, and his brows furrowed even tighter.
"Crack!" another twig finally burst open.
Suddenly, the howling wind lost its sound, and the whole forest seemed to be still, and there was no more sound, and in the darkness ahead, the dense woods and tangled brambles, suddenly fell to the sides, revealing a narrow passage that could be walked by a man.
A young man dressed in bright silk clothes, with a handsome face almost with a sense of bewitchment, walked out of the darkness step by step. In the darkness of the night, he was so conspicuous that it was as if his surroundings were lit up because of him. The general did not get up, did not move, still sat on the ground, and looked directly at the young man.
The young man looked at the generals, and then his eyes fell on Yamamoto Mingyue, and he was slightly stunned, "Huh"
sighed and said, "Zombie King!"
The general didn't speak, but Yamamoto Mingyue suddenly snorted, looking very annoyed.
Almost at the same time as Yamamoto Mingyue was angry, the low roar just now sounded again, but the difference was that this time the roar sounded directly from behind the young man.
"Roar, ......" With this low and powerful roar, behind the young man with a calm expression, a hideous strange head slowly rose from his shoulder, with four eyes, two pairs of upper and lower sides of the face, as thick as a copper bell. The mouth is huge, almost as wide as the face, and between the mouths, it can be seen that the mouth is full of sharp teeth, especially the six sharp fangs that stick out of the mouth, which are even more terrifying, and in the faint light of the flames in the field, dripping saliva can be faintly seen between the teeth, falling on the gray-black skin of the monster full of crusty bumps.
The general's face finally changed, he slowly stood up, and said coldly: "Gluttony?"
The young man hadn't answered, his eyes were still looking at the general, and suddenly he seemed to be aware of it, and he turned his eyes to look at the gluttony, and couldn't help but be stunned, only to see that the vicious beast's always fierce gaze was even more greedy at the moment, but the target was not the general and Yamamoto Mingyue, but the elk that was being barbecued on the ground.
The enticing aroma of barbecue wafts through the air.
The young man smiled suddenly, and said to the general: "Your craftsmanship is good! I said why I was restless tonight, and I didn't expect to be attracted by you." ”
The general said lightly: "Although gluttony is an ancient evil beast, fierce and fast, but it has always been greedy, and a roasted elk is nothing. ”
The young man shook his head and said, "Otherwise, my gluttony is different, and the general food has long been ignored, and I can't imagine that I will be coveted like this by your seemingly rough barbecue." ”
At this moment, as the young man said, the gluttony seemed to be particularly fond of this roasted elk, and the saliva between his mouth and teeth flowed wildly, flowing down between his teeth, and suddenly with a whistling, the gluttony jumped out of the young man's shoulder, turned into a black shadow, and threw himself into the flames. Unexpectedly, the white shadow flashed, and it was Yamamoto Mingyue who came out of the sky, blocking the roasted elk.
The gluttonous "roar" roared, fell to the ground, and showed its true body, only to see its four-legged claws, its body looked at least four times larger than that of the elk, and the strangest thing was that the neck was extremely long, rising upwards, almost doubling the height of the body.
Yamamoto Mingyue is pitifully small compared to him, but for some reason, the gluttony seems to be a little jealous of Yamamoto Mingyue, and he doesn't dare to be careless, but he is reluctant to eat in front of him, and he roars in a low voice at the moment, and his expression gradually becomes hideous.
The general saw that the man and the beast were angry and confrontational for roasting the elk, and suddenly said: "This elk has not been roasted yet, and the taste is not up to the fire, what are you fighting for?"
He said this inexplicably, even the young man couldn't help but look at him more, but the confrontation of one person and one beast reacted, gluttonous four eyes stared at Yamamoto Mingyue, Yamamoto Mingyue also opened with two eyes, two strange beasts six eyes stared at one bigger than the other, a moment later, Yamamoto Mingyue screamed at the gluttony a few times, showing his teeth, and then ran back a few steps, sitting next to the general, his eyes staring at the roasted elk.
The gluttonous four eyes shook with Yamamoto Mingyue's movements, and when Yamamoto Mingyue sat down, the evil beast "roared, roared" and screamed twice, and unbelievably slowly walked to the other end of the flame, the hind legs were retracted, the front legs swayed lightly, and he actually lay down in front of the flames, but the saliva in his mouth still flowed out involuntarily, looking terrifying, but still a little funny.
The young man watched the gluttony sit down, walked over slowly, and didn't care about the dirtiness on the ground, so he sat down beside the glutton, looked at the generals, smiled slightly, and said: "Your Excellency, which master is it, I can't imagine that there is such a means to let the gluttony temporarily suppress the ferocity?"
The general didn't look at him, sat down, his eyes fluttered back into the flames, and said: "You and I met by chance in the mountains, why do you know your name, just a roasted elk, just a belly." ”
The young man looked at the general for a while, and suddenly laughed, and the laughter was loud, startling countless night birds in the distance.
"Well said, well said. He lightly slapped his leg, with a look of surprise praise on his face, and said, "A good one is just a good stomach." Speaking of all living beings in the world, they are busy all day long, isn't it just for the sake of hunger. In this way, don't you say that the so-called "people" are no different from me, a gluttonous beast?"
The general gently flipped the roasted elk, and the smell of sesame oil on the elk meat became stronger, seducing the gluttony on the opposite side for a while, but I don't know if it was to taste the delicacy or what, this strange beast known for its gluttony in addition to ferocity actually endured it, and at the same time, Yamamoto Mingyue glared at it fiercely.
The flames burned quietly, reflected on the general's face, and he said slowly: "People are still different. ”
The boy said, "What?"
The general said: "Love and hate, people have feelings." ”
The young man laughed and said, "Don't you know that all beasts also feel that if you kill this elk, you should know that the elk is in pain and fear, and if I kill you, you will be like an elk." All beings are equal, so how can there be a distinction between humans and beasts?"
The general raised his eyes, looked at the young man, and said, "There is a difference." ”
The young man's eyes were sharp and he said, "What's the difference?"
The general said: "I have great regrets in my life, engraved in my heart day and night, life is better than death, but I can't help but live." Life is still hopeful, and death is a cowardly person. How can an elk have such a feud?"
The young man was stunned, the fierce color in his eyes gradually faded, and then a strange look appeared on his face.
There was no sound in all directions, except for the occasional sound of branches popping in the fire. Neither the strange boy nor the general spoke again, and the flames stretched and shone and burned between them.
The color of the surface of the roasted elk gradually turned golden, and a slight burnt smell emerged from the rich aroma at the same time, at this time, the surface of the entire roasted elk was covered by a transparent layer of light oil droplets, and the general finally turned the roasted elk a few times, and said, "It's okay, you can eat it!"
As soon as the words fell, Yamamoto Mingyue and Gluttony pounced at the same time, Yamamoto Mingyue reached out and grabbed one of the hind legs of the roasted elk, and the elk skin that was originally roasting hot seemed to have no feeling in its hand at all. It's just that the gluttony is even more powerful, and he doesn't move his hands and feet and claws, and directly opens his bloody mouth, ignoring that the elk meat is still above the flames, he directly sticks his head into it and bites it down.
Gluttonous mouth, the already huge mouth became more and more terrifying, a huge roasted elk, was bitten by this monster in its whole mouth, leaving only one hind leg caught by Yamamoto Mingyue and left outside.
Yamamoto Mingyue was furious, with an angry expression on his face, holding the elk leg in his hand, and jumping to his feet and shouting at the same time, the gluttonous beast didn't care so much, the sharp teeth "collapsed" and bitten, and the delicious elk meat was bitten into two pieces like a devastating one, Yamamoto Mingyue was caught off guard, fell back too hard for a while, rolled twice in the ground, and only grabbed an elk leg in his hand when he stood up.
As for the vast majority of the delicious roasted elk, at this moment, it was bitten in the mouth by gluttony, chewing loudly, and the remaining elk bones seemed to be directly bitten and swallowed by it into the stomach, eating like a wind and clouds, sweeping thousands of troops, especially the four eyes on the face, squeezed to both sides of the face by the bulging mouth, and the four eyes were still shining, obviously eating very enjoyable.
"You dead monster just leave me such a little ......" Yamamoto Mingyue saw that most of the delicious food that originally belonged to him was robbed by this evil beast, how could he not be angry, but after screaming a few times, he lowered his head violently and gnawed it, and it ate very quickly, but after a while, an elk leg ate most of it.
"Roar, ......" The gluttonous low roar sounded again, and he slowly turned his head to look at Yamamoto Mingyue, such a big roasted elk, it was eaten clean by it in just this moment, and swallowed it directly, not even the bones left. And obviously, the gluttony was still unfinished, and his eyes lit up, staring at the last meat and bone in Yamamoto Mingyue's hand.
