[007] Snake soup

A lot of common sense that we take for granted is actually summed up by countless people through observation, research, and experimentation.

The world in which Xiao and Su live is still very backward, and there is no such person, so many of the common sense we are accustomed to have not been summarized by anyone, and some very simple laws they do not know, so they have no way to detect abnormalities.

Although Goya's heartbeat is different from everyone's, in the eyes of Xiao, it is just something special, not a big deal.

Because no one told him what range a normal person's heartbeat should be, and it is not human to exceed or undershoot.

There is a slave trader team in front of them, and there is no need to do anything to follow behind, the road is ready-made, just follow it.

Occasionally, the owl can also pick up the snake corpse killed by the slave trading team on the road, but unfortunately the other party will take away the ingredients such as hares even if they are killed, and will not stay in place.

As the sun gradually set in the west, the slave traders stopped under a boulder to rest, and even lit a bonfire, skinned and gutted the prey they had hit, and skewered it with sticks and inserted it next to the campfire.

Under normal circumstances, slave caravans do not light fires or even barbecue food, after all, it is easy to get out of the way.

But this slave trading team is not weak, ordinary animals will only become a ration when they encounter them, but they are very bold, and in the dense forest hundreds of meters away from them, the owls also began to cook.

Because he got two snakes, this time he was going to make snake soup.

The head of the snake had already been buried in the ground where the snake was found, so the preparation was quickly completed, and then he built a bonfire, used the leaves to make a pot, and put the meat of the snake cut into the pot.

After passing through the water, he sprinkled the spice on top of the snake meat and baked a stone slab over the fire.

He took out a bag made of leaves from his trousers, and inside was a piece of rabbit oil, which he applied to the slate, and then placed pieces of snake meat on the slate, and in a moment there was an indescribable fragrance.

"It smells so good. Sa squatted beside him, holding his cheeks with both hands and watching the owl cook, when he smelled the fragrance, swallowed his saliva, and said greedily.

Xiao smiled and said, "It will be more fragrant later." ”

When the snake meat was golden brown and crispy, he set the slate aside, placed the pot made of leaves over the fire, and poured plenty of water.

He cut the fruit he collected along the way in half and placed it on top of the leaf pot to pinch out the juice by hand, then tossed the peel aside and put the prepared series of herbs into the soup.

At this time, the soup began to boil, and soon a wonderful smell emanated, and the owl cut off the marinated squirrel meat left over from the previous time and put it into the soup.

Along the way, he hunted more or less, naturally it was impossible to eat it all, and some of the meat was pickled by him and wrapped in leaves, usually put it in his arms, and he could use it directly when he needed it.

"Don't worry, it's almost ready. Xiao looked at the soup with a blank look and said with a smile.

Suddenly, both of them looked slightly different, and at the same time looked in the direction where the slave trading team was, and the two looked at each other, knowing that the other had heard.

On the side of the slave traders, several slave traders were holding torches and were staring vigilantly into the woods not far away, and a creature resembling a pangolin was staring at the slave traders.

"Be careful, this is Gon Mir. The leader of the slave traders, armed with a thin sword, spoke.

He was able to be the boss of the slave trading team entirely because he had a way and was well-informed, but he was not particularly strong in terms of combat effectiveness.

Then he told the people the message of Gon Mir, and all of them frowned.

In fact, Gon Mir is a relatively rare beast, the adult Gon Mir is about 3.5 meters long, about 1.5 meters high, and has scales that are difficult to hurt by swords, and the only weakness is that the abdomen is relatively weak.

However, the reason why Gon Mir is called Gon Mir is mainly because its attack method is to curl up its body to form a ball, and directly rotate to hit the target.

When it is curled up, the scale armor on its body will be slightly raised, like a sharp military shovel, as long as it hits, it will not die or be half disabled, which is very dangerous.

By this time, it was already very clear that the adult Gonommir had set his sights on the slave traders.

This is not a particularly strange thing, Gon Mir is different from other creatures, most creatures tend to be afraid and jealous when they see that humans are outnumbered, and thus avoid humans.

However, because of the way he attacks, Gon Mir likes to target prey that lives in groups, which is like bowling, and it is definitely more difficult to hit when there is only one pin, and the more pins there are, the more likely it is to hit the pin.

Therefore, the large number of slave traders will not be the reason for Gon Mir's fear, but rather the reason for him to attack.

After listening to the introduction of the boss of the slave trading team, Higashiya and Si Sulphur and the archer all knew that a vicious fight was inevitable, and Higashiya said directly: "Everyone else has taken their shields and prepared to fight, Si Sulphur and Crane, you go to the tree and look for an opportunity to shoot its eyes." ”

"Well, be careful. Sisulfur nodded, and quickly turned to find a suitable shooting spot.

Archer Klein also nodded slightly, and then quickly climbed up a relatively tall tree.

When Gon Mir saw the two of them leave, he immediately curled up in a ball, the scales on its back were very special, and there were special muscles inside, which could rotate at high speed under vibration.

"Here, be careful!" exclaimed.

Then a slave trader with a shield did not have time to dodge, and the shield was directly smashed by Gon Mir, and the others were crushed to the ground, and when Gon Mir rolled over, he was already cut into five pieces, and died neatly.

Everyone's eyelids jumped when they saw this scene, and some even threw away their shields and stared at Gon Mir vigilantly with only their knives.

This is, Higashiya held the broken knife in his hand, and after shouting, he quickly rushed towards Gon Mier, but the knife slashed at Gon Mir but was bounced away, and he took several steps back before he unloaded the strength of the rebound.

"Good fellow, this armor is so tough. He couldn't help but praise.

At this time, Crane shot an arrow from the tree, and instead of shooting at the corner of the eye, he tried to jam Gon Mill's scales, but the arrow was shot between the scales, but it did not jam Gon Mill's rolling momentum at all, but the arrow was directly broken, and then fell to the ground in the roll.

"This monster is so strong. Seeing this scene, Xi Su couldn't help but gasp.

Crane's arrows are all specially made, originally used to hunt tigers or elephants, and the wood used for the arrows is a hardwood that is difficult to break, even the Hercules Donggu in the slave trading team is constantly broken, but it can be easily broken on this Gon Mir.

Glancing at his flying knives, Si Sulphur felt that it was better not to waste these precious flying knives easily.

His throwing knives are also special throwing knives, different shapes have different effects, and even three throwing knives are smeared with valuable poisons, and even one throwing knife is poisonous and incurable.

On the ground, Gon Mir was shrunk into a ball, but it was very nimble, and after killing a person, it quickly locked onto the next target and quickly rammed into it.

However, because the slave traders gave up their shields, the collision did not hit the target, but instead hit a tree behind the slave traders.

The slave trader gave up the shield, in fact, it was equivalent to giving up the intention of frontal resistance, after all, the slave trader who had just been killed had a shield in his hand, but it had no effect at all.

Gon Mir missed, spun around and quickly locked onto another slave trader and slammed into it again.

While Gon Mir was entangled with the slave traders, the other side was ready.

The owl stirred the snake soup with a wooden stick and said with a smile: "Okay." ”

"Well, did you say they beat Gon Mir?" asked Sa, looking absentmindedly at the snake soup, apparently her attention was on the slave traders.

She didn't really care if the slave traders died, but those trapped in the prison carts had to care, if Gon Mir hit and killed all the slave traders, and then hit the prisoner cart, wouldn't the people in the prison cart die.

"I don't know, come, drink soup!" replied casually, and then handed the bowl made of leaves to Suo.

Su took the bowl, blew on the hot air, and then tasted it, and suddenly his eyes lit up slightly, this taste is fantastic.

"Xinyou snake soup, eating it often can enhance the flexibility of the body, improve the reaction speed, and the most important thing is to nourish the yin and beauty, you eat more. Xiao said with a smile.

Su nodded, and then continued to taste the snake soup.

While eating, the two of them paid attention to the battle between the slave trading team and Gon Mir, but neither of them had the slightest idea of supporting, after all, both of them were actually very weak, and if they really ran to support, it was to deliver food.

What's more, the two of them wished that all the slave traders were dead, so how could they support them.

The only thing that worries them is the people in the prison car.

But the two of them have no choice, even if they go, they can't save people, but they may put themselves in it, they are not so stupid.

In response, the two men came to the conclusion that they hoped that the slave carters would be able to kill Gon Mir, preferably after killing seven or eight slave traders, so that it would be easier for them to rescue the people in the prison cart.

Higashiya and the others didn't know that there were people in the distance who were expecting them to die, and the so-called long-term defense would be lost, and Gon Mir continued to attack, even if the slave traders gave up their shields and chose to entangle with Gon Mir by dodging, but there were still people who were hit by more times.

Don't look at Gon Mir's line of attack as if it was going straight to the point, but sometimes its attack was actually a feint, and when the slave trader turned sideways to avoid it, it would suddenly change direction and crush the slave trader to death.

Higashiya attacked more than once, but the broken knife slashed at Gon Mier's body, and at most it sparked a little spark, leaving a not-so-obvious slash mark, and it had no effect beyond that.

When four slave traders were killed in a row, the hearts of these people were scattered, and none of them wanted to be the next person to be hit, so they climbed up the trees one by one.

In the end, only Higashiya and Gungon Mir were left on the ground.
