Chapter 7: The Girl with a Black Belly

If it's a weak chicken NPC that gets lost, then it's really troublesome, but if it's a high-level NPC who gets lost, how can you be worthy of your identity as a player if you don't take her to the dungeon as a free fighter? If you're lucky, you might even be able to recruit her as your own followers! Thinking of this, a bright smile appeared on Green's face. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žfo

Green opened the map and glanced at it, took a few steps to the left, and turned back to beckon to the girl: "Come with me, there's a safe spot over there." ”

Under the guidance of the system map, Green soon led the girl to a safe spot in the forest - an altar of the goddess of the forest.

Green glanced at the girl, "It's dark now, let's spend the night here tonight." After saying that, Green sat down on the ground, and motioned for the girl to rest here tonight.

The girl glanced up at the sky. The sun is no longer visible, and the silver moon Martha has appeared in the sky. Seeing such a scene, the girl's face seemed to show a trace of sadness.

In the daze of the girl, Green had already cleaned the altar quickly.

Looking at the emblem on the altar glowing faintly green, Green finally breathed a sigh of reliefβ€”the altar was still functioning.

"May all trees be evergreen." Green casually uttered a prayer from the goddess of the forest in the game.

In the world of Io, the wild at night is much more dangerous than during the day, and all kinds of snakes, ants, mosquitoes, and nocturnal monsters are invisible killers that are more dangerous than large monsters, and people often die in their sleep while camping. In the game, players can avoid camping in the wild by going offline, according to the game's parlance, "hiding in the cracks of time to rest", but Green's "Time Miscellaneous" talent has been damaged and does not have the player characteristics in the game, so if Green does not want to sleep with snakes, ants and mosquitoes, he can only go to some "safe place" guarded by the power of order to rest, such as a wild altar like the one in front of him.

After resting beside the altar for a while, Green began to collect dead branches and leaves around the area, intending to start a fire. After a short daze, the girl also began to help collect supplies, and the two also collected some wild vegetables by the way.

"This grass ...... Although it is a little different from the game, it is indeed a silver leaf...... But even if you eat it, you won't be able to provide energy. ”

"This mushroom...... It should be non-toxic. ”

"Hmm~ Although this fruit doesn't taste very good, at least it's non-toxic."

"Huh? This trunk ...... Wow! The larvae of the popping sauce bug? This can provide energy for the day......"

Green found a big, fat bug from the trunk of a tree! But looking at the palm-sized fat worm in front of him, Green suddenly lost his appetite for some reason.

"It's nutritious, but ...... Do you really want to eat it? Looking at the fat bug in front of him, Green's expression was a little subtle.

In the game, Green dares to eat anything, but in reality, eating this kind of thing raw is really a bit ......

"Let's take care of it a little."

As a player, Grimm's wilderness survival skills are full, and most of the edible plants in the game are known to Grimm. Although there are some differences between the plants in real life and the game, some of the key features are exactly the same as in the game, and they can still be recognized if you look closely.

Green caught some popping bugs, collected some wild vegetables, returned to the altar, and then built a fire next to the altar with dead branches and hay, took out the flint and steel he picked up in the field, and began to make a fire.

"Smack~Slap~" It's easy to hit sparks with flint, but it's not so easy to ignite hay.

When Green lit the fire, the maiden finally returned to the altar and confidently placed some of the food she had picked up beside the campfire.

Green couldn't help but widen his eyes as he looked at what the girl had picked up.

"So many mushrooms? Wait, these mushrooms ......" Green hurriedly checked the mushrooms that the girl had picked up, "Girl, these mushrooms are poisonous!" ”

Doesn't it mean that maid professions have strong cooking skills? Why can't this girl even distinguish poisonous mushrooms? Green's eyes were subtle as he looked at the girl.

Green sighed slightly: "That's it, although the ones I found are not enough to fill the stomachs of two people, it should be no problem to eat half full." ”

Green placed a leaf on the ground as a cutting board, and then put the white and chubby popping worm larvae on it, intending to deal with it a little.

Popping sauce insects, a relatively common insect in the forest, feed on various plants, and when attacked, they will explode, releasing a very smelling poisonous gas, but the larvae are completely non-toxic and can be eaten directly.

Green places the popping worm larvae on the leaf and begins to squeeze it.

"Poof!" Suddenly, the fat bug's ass squirted something like poop.

Although the larvae are non-poisonous, Green doesn't want to eat the poop in its stomach.

After squeezing the larvae's belly clean, Green skewers it with a twig and roasts it next to the campfire.

While Green was dealing with the Sauce Worms, the girl also tied the mushrooms she had picked up into a bunch of twigs and roasted them next to the campfire.

Green was startled when he saw the girl's behavior: "Those mushrooms are poisonous!" Inedible! ”

The girl looked at Green blankly.

"At this time, you can only rely on monkey language." Green decided to sacrifice his weapon of murder once again - body language.

Green opened the skill list, found the level 1 [body language] skill he had comprehended before, and clicked to use it. Then an information input box pops up in an instant.

Green typed in what he wanted to say in the infobox, and then clicked Use.

Green loosened his grip on his body and let the system guide his body to make various movements.

"This ...... Mushroom...... Poisonous. ”

The girl couldn't help but laugh as she watched Grimm make all sorts of strange movements like a monkey.

Green glanced at the system prompt for skill failure, lowered his head and thought about it: "The body movements just now are really incomprehensible. Maybe ......"

Green gave up on using body language and instead expressed himself directly through his actions.

"This ......," Green pointed to the mushroom.

"Eat ......," Green made a eating motion.

"Poisonous!" Green gripped his neck and made an uncomfortable expression.

The girl didn't laugh this time. Looking at Green's nervous expression, the girl lowered her head and thought about it, then imitated Green's previous movements, pointed to the mushroom, made a eating motion, and then raised her hands to make a look of showing her biceps.

Green thought for a moment, "These mushrooms have been eaten...... The meaning of the last action refers to...... Strength? Arm? Muscles? Strong...... Is that last gesture a sign of strength and health? You mean it's okay for you to eat these? Green felt that this was what the other party meant.

But......

Green is pretty sure these mushrooms are poisonous!

Could it be that this girl has strong poison resistance, so she is immune to this level of toxins? Green thinks it's not that likely.

Maid classes usually have a high level of cooking skills, so most maids will be able to tell which foods are poisonous or non-toxic. If you dare to eat mushrooms knowing that they are poisonous, you must have something to rely on.

"Okay. Looks like I'm overthinking. Green breathed a sigh of relief and began to work on the ingredients.

In addition to popping sauce bugs, Green also found some wild fruits and wild vegetables.

Since there was no water, Green couldn't clean the wild plants. In order to avoid diarrhea, Green put the wild vegetables on the stone next to the campfire and roasted them! Hygiene and health are guaranteed by high-temperature sterilization.

In order to avoid diarrhea, the green roast takes a longer time. While Green was still waiting, the maiden had already begun to eat her roasted mushrooms.

Green watched nervously as the girl ate the mushrooms. When Green found out that she showed no signs of poisoning, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sure enough, poisonous resistance, no wonder all you picked up were some poisonous mushrooms......" said Green couldn't help frowning, "That's not right! How did you pick up all the poisonous mushrooms? Girl, didn't you think about me at all when you were raising food? ”

Madeakua! Suddenly Green's whole body is not good.

Girl, how can you be so selfish? It's not right for everyone to team up and take care of their teammates and just themselves!

Fortunately, my survival ability in the wild is not bad, otherwise I would have gone hungry tonight. Indignant, Green began to prepare his own food.

It didn't take long for the popping sauce worms to be roasted until they were browned and crispy.

Green cracks some wild fruits, then spreads the juice and flesh on the burnt brown popping worm larvae, then wraps them in wild vegetables.

"Pop the sauce worm vegetable roll! ~" Green looked at the vegetable roll in his hand with a satisfied smile on his face, "It seems that the craft has not regressed." ”

"Comprehension Skill: Cooking."

Ignoring the system's tone, Green picked up the vegetable roll and took a bite of it.

"The roasted pop-jam worm larvae have the taste of grilled chicken wings, the sourness of wild fruits and the chicken-flavored pop-sauce worm larvae, plus the fragrance of vegetables, and the Nanyang-style chicken vegetable rolls!" Green had a satisfied smile on his face, "It's a pity that I don't have cheese in my hand, it would be perfect if I could add some more cheese to it." ”

The girl on the side looked at the roasted mushrooms in her hand, and then at the vegetable roll in Green's hand, and couldn't help swallowing her saliva, as if she felt a little moved by the food in Green's hand, but unfortunately the two did not understand the language, and Green did not notice the expression on the girl's face.

After eating some food and replenishing some energy, Grimm, who had been tired from the day, leaned against the altar and fell into a deep sleep. After escaping for a whole day after crossing, Green, who did not have high physical strength, was already exhausted.

The girl looked at the sleeping Green and blinked, as if thinking about something.

The word explosive (anti-harmony) pulp insect is actually a sensitive word, which is also too unscientific!
