Chapter 65: The Desert Girl
However, what surprised Su Mu and the others even more was that this humanoid black shadow didn't seem to be afraid of even boiling water.
He directly covered his palm with Jingqi, and then reached out to grab the food in the soup pot, and then kept stuffing the food into his mouth.
It was only at this moment that Jiang Lan on the side came back to his senses, and immediately wanted to resonate with a magic to punish the uninvited guest in front of him.
But even when Jiang Lan hadn't really sacrificed the magic yet, Su Mu had already quickly blocked it.
Jiang Lan was still puzzled by this, but Su Mu forcibly dragged Jiang Lan back more than ten meters away with the speed of turning back in an instant, and then explained in an awe-inspiring tone:
"Don't take it lightly, it doesn't seem to have any malice at the moment, it just wants the food in the pot. And if you really want to shoot, you must also be able to kill with one hit, because ...... In terms of warrior ability, I'm no match for it at all!"
Su Mu's words really made Jiang Lan feel frightened.
Obviously, the fact that Su Mu also had a sixth-order warrior level was already known to Jiang Lan, who was traveling with him.
But after seeing the black shadow's movements, Su Mu made it abundantly clear that even he was not the opponent of the figure in front of him.
Then the figure in front of him must have the strength of the sixth order or more in small characters.
And in the previous kind of close quarters, against a melee fighter of this level, Jiang Lan, as a sixth-order magic apprentice, obviously had no chance of winning.
And it was just after Su Mu and the others instantly opened up the distance from the black shadow.
As Su Mu said, the black shadow simply enjoyed the pieces of meat in the pot, ignoring and guarding against Su Mu and the others.
It seems that in the mind of this dark shadow, there is no evil of plundering or guarding against humanity at all.
It's like ...... Rarely come into contact with the usual human creatures!
......
"Deserters?"
Su Mu and Jiang Lan almost thought of this possibility.
There is no doubt that at this point on the border of the Great Wilderness, there is a humanoid creature with strong strength but no understanding of the world, and it can almost only be a desolate person in a primitive state.
However, after discovering the identity of the other party's desolate man, Su Mu was slightly embarrassed.
After all, according to Jiang Lan, although the desolate people do have language ability, there is no doubt that in the almost isolated desolate tribe, it is not the continental lingua franca used.
So how to communicate with the figure in front of him has become Su Mu's biggest problem.
After all, if this black shadow itself had been occupying the Qi power carriage of Su Mu and the others, then Su Mu and the others really didn't dare to approach too easily.
As for the many supplies on the carriage, it became more and more difficult to retrieve.
However, at this moment, Su Muzheng was worried about how to show that he had no malicious intent.
The black shadow who had eaten the food in the pot in an instant, but also looked up at Su Mu for the first time.
And before that, the black shadow was covered by its dirty hair, covering its entire face. Therefore, it was not until this moment, when it took the initiative to raise its head, that Su Mu was stunned and discovered:
The filthy figure in front of him...... It turned out to be a girl who was no more than fifteen or sixteen years old!
However, the surprise that the black shadow gave Su Mu obviously did not stop there.
When the desolate girl raised her head, she even expressed it very bluntly in a very straightforward way of saying in a very jerky but standard continental lingua franca:
"I'm still hungry, give me food, if you don't give it to me, I'll kill you!"
......
The way the desert girl speaks, although it is exceptionally simple and clean, even vaguely, there is a slight sense of cuteness.
However, what is intimidating is that she is so sincere and calm when she says this.
Sincerely, when she said that she wanted to die, she really wanted to die, and calm, killing other lives, seemed to be such an ordinary norm for her way of living.
The most primitive, pure, and unconscious evil is the most frightening thing.
However, compared to the original evil thoughts of the desolate girl, Su Mu was even more surprised at this time, but it was obvious that she actually understood the lingua franca of the mainland.
So after a moment of silence, Su Mu also replied in Jiang Lan's surprise in a particularly strange way:
"First of all, if you need food, I can provide it to you. It can even be shared with you in a more delicious way, just like the one you did earlier. ”
"But my offer of food in exchange is not whether you want to kill us both. Rather, you must follow my instructions and do all your actions according to my arrangement until I give you food. ”
"If you can't accept this condition, then you can try to fight us. ”
Regarding Su Mu's strange words, not to mention that the desolate girl was a little dazed for a while, even Jiang Lan beside Su Mu was a little unsure of Su Mu's plan.
But what is even more bizarre is that when the desolate girl listened to Su Mu's proposal, she thought deeply for a long time, and then licked the corners of her mouth with a retrospective face, and gave her answer not very skillfully:
"Give me twice as much as these things just now, and I'll listen to you. ”
......
There is no doubt that Su Mu's whimsical attempt really got the effect he expected.
Because Su Mu found some kind of baby-like purity in the body of the desolate girl.
And the concrete manifestation of this purity is that the desolate girl has no real attachment to all good and evil. She will kill for food, but she will also bind herself for reward.
Whether a primitive personality like hers will become innocent and cute, or will be murderous, is actually completely determined by ...... The human who had influenced her.
Therefore, at this time, Su Mu wanted to take the initiative to act as this influencer.
After getting the affirmation of the desolate girl, Su Mu did not start making food immediately, but continued to instruct the desolate girl to wash the soup pot that had been soiled by her.
Even Su Mu deliberately did not mention the existence of sacrificial firewood, but let the desolate girl go to collect firewood and make a fire by herself.
It wasn't until a new pot of clear water boiled again with the help of the desolate girl that Su Mu put the prepared ingredients into the soup pot one by one.
And until the broth was cooked again, Su Mu still didn't let the desolate girl do anything indiscriminately.
Instead, he used three soup bowls to divide the broth into several portions, and then handed one of the soup bowls to the desolate girl and taught her how to drink the soup with a spoon.
Obviously, with a primitive way of survival like a girl, being able to cook the pieces of meat and eat them is already the most delicious way she can think of.
In the absence of utensils, she had never enjoyed the deliciousness of the broth at all.
So when the desolate girl was full of doubts, she followed the example of Su Mu and the others, and drank the rich broth into her mouth. The crispness of the bamboo shoots in the broth and the salty aroma of the jerky exploded in her mouth.
So much so that the desolate girl in front of her, her originally black and shiny face, unconsciously burst out a little excited light.
In just a moment, the girl had already drunk a large bowl of broth, and looked again with anticipation on her face, the remaining soup still boiling in the pot.
And even the desolate girl herself didn't pay attention, under Su Mu's guidance just now, she had already subconsciously thought that if she wanted to get food, she had to get Su Mu's consent.
At this moment, she didn't take the initiative to reach out to grab it at all, but quietly waited for Su Mu to react.
Seeing such a situation, Su Mu was satisfied, but he also asked again:
"The rest of the broth is yours, and it's a reward for the wood you just picked up to wash the pot, but before that, I have one last request. ”
"Please give me your happiest smile!"
