Chapter 1: A New Journey
Little by little, the sun is sinking into the giant rippling mountains, and the natural orange clouds are as beautiful as the bonfire in front of everyone.
A group of fugitives are drying their clothes over a fire to dispel the cold sensation of the river.
Although everyone was cast the [Enduring the Environment] spell after falling into the water, and they would not be frostbitten by the glacial water of dozens of degrees below zero, the uncomfortable and huge cold feeling brought by the wetness on their bodies was not so comfortable.
Chen Xuyuan was chatting with Bruno about some serious things, and the two women, Siggli and Pachushan, were behind the drying rack set up by the branches, leaning against another bonfire and talking about the feminine body.
Come through the light.
But at this time, everyone is trying to do what is at hand, or let themselves think of memories that have nothing to do with recent events.
They were all trying to make themselves forget the defeat they had endured a week earlier, and the dead of their comrades.
Only the heartless lazy monkey "Thumb" still has the mind, playing on the swing in the tree, and from time to time he will catch some bugs as snacks.
After all.
After leaving the cold plateau that makes it uncomfortable, the monkey will always be unable to resist its active nature.
Many people think that monkeys~ eat some fruits such as peaches and bananas.
But actually.
All primates, including humans and monkeys, are omnivores! In addition to eating wild fruits, seeds, and young leaves, monkeys also eat bird eggs, insects, and other small animals!
The warmer climate of the forest immediately became the source of the recipe on the tip of its tongue.
From time to time, Bruno Sr. pauses to talk, recalling with fascination the bonfire only a few days ago.
Then.
Although they are also on the run, the crowd is always lively in the campfire at night.
There will also be a few young people who follow the example of troubadours and begin to sing light songs, and there is a lot of emotion and laughter between the young men and women. Singing, laughter, and conversation mingled with the aroma of barbecued meat in the warm glow of the campfire.
It was as if they weren't being chased for their lives, but just had a bonfire for an outing.
But after paying a few young and fresh lives, the cold reality brought them back to the cold scene in front of them.
His followers and students fled and died.
Old Bruno is now a truly lonely man.
He sat by a bonfire, thinking of the beautiful and peaceful scene, and suddenly felt that he had tears in his eyes~
The tired heart is like the frost and snow in winter, unconsciously climbing the surface of the mirror in the heart, obscuring the channel through which the sun shines into the heart. The slightest sense of loneliness seems to be the emergence of tender green vines, and the faint sadness is like countless vine roots tangled together.
Right now.
Eddie suddenly jumped up from the forest and shouted at Chen Xuyuan: "The teacher has rabbits! I just went over there for convenience, and I happened to see two rabbits that were knocked out by me and hit a tree by myself! I picked up a big bargain~"
"Ahh If you peel and bone, you won't have much to chew~"
"Well~ That's no way~ Although the altitude here is not high, the melted snow water flows through here, and the magnanimity is not high. Although there is no snow cover, the land is still a little stiff, the grass and trees are sparse, and there are not many things suitable for rabbits to eat~" Bruno, who has rich knowledge of nature, said casually.
Eddie scratched his ears and cheeks when he heard it, and then asked, "After talking for a long time~ Then do we want to stew these two rabbits in soup at night?"
Chen Xuyuan was about to hold on to the rabbit ears and hand them back to him, when suddenly a thought came to his heart, and he smiled and said, "You first tie the two rabbits under the trunk with a rope, and then you will go to the river where we pass by to pull a few kilograms of Timuxi grass and alfalfa grass and feed them to them!"
"But Teacher, did these two rabbits eat that much?" asked Add, a little strangely.
I only heard his teacher continue: "Then you don't care about it for now. Alfalfa grass is the kind of clover we usually talk about, clover grass~! The kind with round leaves and small yellow flowers. Timuxi grass is more, it looks like autumn rice ears, panicles, spikelets are tight, columnar, about 5~10 cm long, a bit like a fluffy grass stick. ”
Eddie was stunned when he heard it: It turns out that clover is alfalfa grass~! Knowledgeable people are just different, and they say one thing at a time!
"I'll make a spell on these two rabbits first, and you'll come back tomorrow~"
Let's talk about it.
Chen Xuyuan smiled, stretched out his finger with a solemn face, and gestured a few times at the two rabbits tied to the tree, as if drawing runes in the air.
In amazement, Add quickly stared at the two rabbits.
And then-nothing happened~~ Eddie smiled and said, "You're making fun of me." It hasn't changed at all. ”
Chen Xuyuan sneered and said, "Who are you looking for fun?" You go back to sleep first, and you will naturally know what is going on tomorrow morning." Let's eat dry food tonight, lest the food scraps at night attract those sneaky little things and disturb us from sleeping. After saying that, he ignored him and walked away.
Before going to bed.
Eddie looked at the rabbits curiously, but he felt that the two rabbits were eating grass a little fast, and he didn't notice anything abnormal.
Day 2.
As soon as he woke up and casually skimmed under the tree, he found that the two rabbits were actually fat and the size of a little suckling pig!
The size of the rabbit has grown to twice the size of the normal body, and the weight has increased to eight times, at least a dozen pounds.
They were so round that they couldn't even walk.
He ran to Chen Xuyuan's side in surprise, pointed to the "mutated" rabbit, and asked in a very low voice: "What kind of witchcraft is this? You can't secretly cast a temporary [Giant Transformation Technique] to make me happy! But this is meaningless, it will change back in a few minutes." ”
Chen Xuyuan chuckled: "Who said that they would change back, and they will be stewed and drunk later." It's my original secret art, and it would be strange if you had heard of it. ”
It turned out that yesterday he drew two runes on the rabbit in the air, and the invisible runes worked in the rabbit's body, quickly consuming food like the lost druid spell [Animal Mutation] to increase the rabbit's muscles.
