"Okay. (Please search, or type directly to see the latest chapter)" Lulu held out her hand, "We shake hands, and that's it!" ā
Lulu's words called Chen Yihan out of that headache.
and Katniss belong to the same 12th district, and he and Katniss also made a splash before, in everyone's eyes, he and Katniss are a pair of star lovers.
But with Lulu, it's too difficult, and you can't get together.
Not a district not to say, said to be lovers?
Lulu is too small......
Although this little black girl looks quite smart, she ...... Is this Lori cultivation?
It's too a**.
Regarding this matter, Chen Yihan didn't think of any way for the time being, so he could only take one step at a time.
"Don't you want to shake my hand?" Lulu's hand hung there, and she asked Chen Yihan in a low voice.
Chen Yihan stretched out his hand and held Lulu's little hand in his palm.
Of course, this kind of agreement can only be temporary, but neither Chen Yihan nor Lulu mentioned this.
When Lulu let go of her hand, she happily ran around the neighborhood and found some rhizome plants to accompany her meal, which had the sweet smell of parsnips when roasted over the fire.
She also knew the bird, known in their area as the large-billed finch, and she said that sometimes it flew into the orchard in flocks so that they could have a full meal.
After the large-billed finch was roasted, it was soon eaten by Chen Yihan and Lulu.
The meat of the large-billed finch is very fragrant, and there is a lot of oil, and the oil flows out of the corners of the mouth when you chew it.
"Oh." Lulu sighed and said, "I've never eaten a whole leg before. ā
Chen Yihan handed over the leg meat left in his hand to be eaten last: "Let's eat that one too." ā
"Really?" Lulu's eyes were fixed on the meat handed over by Chen Yihan, but she didn't reach out to take it.
"We can eat as much as we want, and now we have bows and arrows, and we can shoot more. I'll still do it, I'll show you how to do it. Chen Yihan looked at Lulu and said with a smile.
Lulu still looked at the leg hesitantly.
"Come, take it." Chen Yihan put the bird's leg in her hand, "Hurry up and eat, let's go hunting together after eating." ā
As soon as the bird's leg arrived, she took a big bite, and it seemed that she was really hungry.
"I'm thinking, in your 11th district, you must have a little more food than us, you know, your district grows food." Chen Yihan said.
Lulu's eyes widened, and she shook her head as she chewed on her legs, "Oh, no, we are not allowed to eat our own harvest. ā
"Will I arrest you? Or something else? Chen Yihan asked.
"Will be whipped in public." "The mayor is very harsh. ā
Chen Yihan could see from her expression that this kind of thing happened often.
"Do you have enough coal to burn?" Lulu asked.
"Not enough." Chen Yihan replied with the memory of Pita infused by the Lord God, "We burn the coal we bought or brought out of our boots. ā
"We eat a little bit more during the harvest season, so we can stick around a little longer." Lulu said.
"Do you go to school?" Chen Yihan asked.
"It's not harvest time, everyone has to work." Lulu said.
Chen Yihan chatted with Lulu like this, until Lulu finished eating the leg meat, and also ** all five of his fingers.
After eating, Lulu built yƬ to have a plan to arrange all the food.
She had seen most of Chen Yihan's food, plus a few biscuits and some beef, and she had gone to pick a lot of plant roots, nuts, wild vegetables, and even some berries.
Chen Yihan picked up a berry that was not very familiar and asked, "Are you sure you can eat this?" ā
"Oh, yes, we have this fruit in our hometown, and I've been eating it for days." Lulu said, putting a handful of berries in her mouth over and over again.
Chen Yihan took a bite carefully, well, it tasted similar to blackberries.
Joining forces with Lulu seemed like a good choice, at the very least, there were plenty of vegetables and fruits to eat.
Chen Yihan divided the food, just in case.
Lulu also has a leather hydration bag, a homemade slingshot, a pair of socks, and a sharp stone to use as a knife.
"I know, I don't have a lot of stuff." Lulu lowered her head as she spoke, as if embarrassed, "But I'll have to run away from Zeus's horn at that moment." ā
"You're doing the right thing." Chen Yihan said as he took out all his things.
When Lulu saw the sunglasses, her eyes widened and she asked, "Where did you get this?" ā
"It's in my backpack, I haven't used it so far, it can't block the sun, but people can't see things clearly." Chen Yihan shrugged and said.
"It's not for blocking the sun, it's for the night." Lulu exclaimed, "Sometimes, when we harvest at night, someone gives a few pairs to those who climb to the top of the tree, and you can see where the torch can't shine. Once, a boy named Martin wanted the glasses and hid them in his pocket, and he was killed instantly. ā
"Killed the boy because of the glasses?"
"yes, everybody knows he's not dangerous, I mean, Martin's brain isn't right, he's like a three-year-old. He just wanted the glasses to play with. Lulu said.
Hearing her say this, Chen Yihan felt the darkness here even deeper.
"And how do you use these glasses?" Chen Yihan asked Lulu with his glasses.
"You can see it in the dark with your glasses." Lulu said, "You can try it tonight when the sun goes down." ā
"Hmm." Chen Yihan nodded, and then he gave Lulu some matches, and Lulu gave Chen Yihan some herbs to use in case of sting.
The two of them extinguished the fire and went up the stream until it was dark.
"Where do you sleep?" Chen Yihan looked at the big tree next to him, "Is it on the tree?" ā
Lu ** nodded.
"Just sleeping in a jacket?"
Lulu held up her socks, "I'll put this on my hand." ā
Chen Yihan thought about how cold it was a few nights ago: "If you want, you can use the sleeping bag with me, the two of us can fit it completely." ā
Lulu's eyes lit up, and she could see that she had never dared to think about it before.
Next, Chen Yihan and Lulu chose the branches, and at this time, the national anthem sounded, and no one died today.
"Lulu, I just woke up this morning, how many people did I miss?" The national anthem should be able to cover up Chen Yihan's voice, but he still whispered it, and even covered his mouth.
"Two." Lulu also whispered, "The girls from District 1 and District 4 are dead, and there are still ten people left. ā
"It's weird, at least that's what I think, maybe it's the venom of the tracking bee that works and gives me the illusion," Chen Yihan said, "Do you know that girl in our district, Katniss?" She saved my life, but she was in the league with the pros. ā
"She's not with them now, I scouted their camp by the lake, they came back there after being attacked by the tracking bees, but she wasn't there, maybe she really saved you and ran away."
Chen Yihan didn't squeak, if Katniss did save herself, then her opinion of her would have changed somewhat.
For Katniss, Chen Yihan didn't know what to do, which made him extremely irritable: "If she does this, she is also acting, you know, to make people feel that the two of us are in love." ā
"Oh, I don't think that's a show."
"Of course!" Chen Yihan said, "I came up with it with our instructor. ā
After Chen Yihan finished speaking, he and Lulu were silent together.
The national anthem ended, and the sky went dark again.
"Let's try these glasses." Chen Yihan broke the silence and said. As he spoke, he took out his glasses and put them on his eyes.
Lulu didn't lie, after putting on her glasses, Chen Yihan could see the leaves on the trees and the skunk patrolling in the bushes fifty meters away.
"Those pros have two pairs of glasses and their stuff is by the lake." Lulu said, "They're all strong. ā
"We're not easy to mess with." Chen Yihan rubbed Lulu's head and said, "Everyone has different advantages. ā
"You're amazing, you know how to shoot arrows." After Lulu finished speaking, she lowered her head, "But I don't know anything." ā
"Can you find food on your own, can they?"
"They don't need it, what they have is food." Lulu said.
"If they don't, if they lose their provisions, how long can they hold on?" Chen Yihan encouraged, "I mean, The Hunger Games also test people's ability to survive themselves, don't they? ā
"But they won't starve."
"Yes, they're not hungry, that's the problem." Chen Yihan agreed.
But in Chen Yihan's heart, a plan was beginning to brew, an offensive plan, not a plan to escape and dodge.
Chen Yihan felt that now, it was his turn to fight back: "I think we have to think about this, Lulu." ā
Chen Yihan knew that he had completely gained Lulu's trust at this time, because Lulu snuggled up to him and fell asleep as soon as the national anthem ended.
Chen Yihan didn't need to have any doubts about her, and he didn't need to take any precautions.
If she wanted to die, she wouldn't have to point the hive to herself in the tree that day, she would just walk away.
Supporting each other with herself is probably her most obvious idea, otherwise in the game, neither of them can win.
The current situation is still extremely unfavorable to the survival of Chen Yihan and Lulu, and in this case, some way must be found to bridge the gap between them.
Chen Yihan began to ponder the pros and their supplies.
Either way, they had to find a way to ruin their supplies, and Chen Yihan was sure that finding food would be extremely difficult for them.
Generally speaking, in the past, professional players would grab food first, and then attack others.
In some years, they did not take good care of their food, such as one year, when some ferocious reptiles ate their food, and another year, when the food was washed away by a flood designed by the organizers, and in this case, it is often the competitors from other districts who win.
Pros can actually be vulnerable from a young age because they don't know how to respond when they're hungry.
In this regard, Lulu has a huge advantage.
Chen Yihan thought about it, and felt that his brain was particularly heavy.
I'm so tired today that I can't make a detailed plan just tonight.
Chen Yihan's injuries have been relieved, but his brain is still a little drowsy because of the bee venom.
Lulu lay beside Chen Yihan, her head resting on his shoulder, giving him a sense of security.
For the first time, Chen Yihan felt how lonely he was in the arena these days, and how comfortable it was to have another person lying next to him!
Chen Yihan was drowsy, thinking that there would be a way tomorrow, and by tomorrow, it would be the professional players who were panicked.
Thinking about it, Chen Yihan closed his eyes and fell asleep.
"Boom!!"
Chen Yihan was awakened by the rumbling sound of cannons, the sky had revealed the dawn, and the birds chirped.
Lulu stayed on a branch opposite Chen Yihan, holding something in her hand, and looked at Chen Yihan who woke up.
Chen Yihan also looked at Lulu, neither of them spoke, just waited quietly, but after waiting for a while, they didn't hear the sound of cannons again.
"Who do you think it would be?" Chen Yihan couldn't help but think of Katniss.
"I don't know, the others, anyone is possible." Lulu said, "I think we'll find out tonight." ā
"Who are the rest of the people?" Chen Yihan asked.
"The boys from Zone 1, two people from Zone 2, the boys from Zone 3, Sarish and me, and you and Katniss." Lulu counted with her fingers, "It's eight people. Wait, there's the boy in District 10, the one with a broken leg, that's nine, and there's one more, neither of us remembers. ā
"I wonder how this one died." Lulu said.
"It's hard to say, but it's good for us, if you die, there will be one less of these people. Maybe we should do something about it before the tournament organizers feel that the process is too slow. After Chen Yihan finished speaking, he looked at the thing in Lulu's hand, "What is in your hand?" ā
"Breakfast." Lulu said as she reached out her hand, revealing the two large bird eggs inside.
"What kind of bird's egg is this, so big!" Chen Yihan asked in surprise.
"I don't know, but there's a swamp over there, I think maybe it's a waterfowl." Lulu shook her head.
The eggs are delicious when cooked, but neither of Chen Yihan nor Lulu wants to risk making a fire.
Chen Yihan guessed that today's deceased should be the victims of professional players, which means that they have recovered quite well and can return to the competition.
Chen Yihan and Lulu emptied the eggs and ate some rabbit legs and berries.
Anyway, it was a pretty good breakfast.
"Are you ready?" Chen Yihan said as he put on his backpack.
"What for?" Lulu jumped up as she asked, and it could be seen that she was willing to do whatever Chen Yihan said.
"Today we're going to get the pros out of the food." Chen Yihan said confidently.
"Really? How to do it? You can tell that Lulu's eyes are shining with excitement.
"I haven't thought about it yet, let's go, let's think about what to do when we hunt." After Chen Yihan finished speaking, he took the lead and walked forward.
Chen Yihan and Lulu didn't hit a lot of prey along the way, because Chen Yihan kept asking Lulu about the situation of professional players, and his mind was focused on it.
Lulu had just spied on them a while ago, and she was very observant.
The camp of the pros was by the lake, and the place where the supplies were hidden was about thirty meters away.
During the day, they would leave a boy from District 3 to guard the supplies.
"Boys from District Three?" Chen Yihan asked, "Is he with them?" ā
"Yes, he stays at camp during the day. As the gang ran towards the lake, the wasp followed, and he was stung by the bee. Lu ** nodded and said, "I think they let him live, on the condition that he can see things, you know, he is not tall." ā
"What weapon does he have?" Chen Yihan asked.
"It seems that there is no weapon, a spear, and it is okay to use this against a few people like us, but Salish can easily kill him."
"The food is out there?" Chen Yihan asked again.
Lu ** nodded.
"It doesn't seem right." Chen Yihan frowned and pondered.
"I know, but I can't say what it is." Lulu nodded, then asked, "Even if you can get to where they put their food, how are you going to destroy it?" ā
"Burn it, or throw it into the lake, or pour fuel on it." Chen Yihan poked the itchy flesh of Lulu's stomach.
"Ate it." Lulu clutched her stomach and giggled.
"Don't worry, I'll figure it out, it's much easier to destroy something than to build it." Chen Yihan and Lulu discussed in a low voice what to do as they dug up grass roots and picked berries and wild vegetables.
Chen Yihan also knows more about Lulu, she is the eldest of the six sisters, she loves her younger siblings very much, she gives them her own rations to eat, she goes to the grass to dig wild vegetables to eat, and the security spirit in their district is not as good as that of the 12th district.
When Chen Yihan asked her what she liked the most, her answer was "music".
"Music?" Chen Yihan was a little surprised.
In his opinion, since entering the main god space, music is an ethereal thing between the ribbon on the head and the rainbow in the sky, at least the rainbow can also indicate the weather conditions, but music is useless at all.
"Do you have a lot of time to listen to music?"
"We sing at home, when we work." Lulu thought for a moment and said, "So, I'm very impressed with you, you will conjure flames from the palm of your hand, and that Katnis, there is a mocking bird brooch. ā
"You have mockingbirds there, too?" Chen Yihan asked.
"Well, yes, a few of them are still my friends. We could sing duets for hours. They can also tell me. ā
"Whistleblower? What do you mean?? Chen Yihan asked.
"I'm usually the one who climbs the highest, so I'm the first to see the flag to call it a day, and then I sing a special song." As she spoke, Lulu opened her mouth and sang a four-note song in a clear, sweet voice.
"The mocking bird spreads the song all over the orchard, so everyone knows it's time to take a break." Lulu continued, "But it's dangerous if you go near its nest, but you can't blame them. ā
Chen Yihan thought about it, the mocking birds that Lulu said should be the flock of birds that she and Katniss used to communicate in the movie.
Plot, plot!
Without the support of the complete original plot, Chen Yihan felt that his head began to ache again.
