Whatever the reason, not being able to catch a pheasant is not something that needs to be investigated, but in the end, it is a bit embarrassing, so Noah did not respond to this.

Of course, if he wanted to take care of Merlin's face, he should say something nice, such as these pheasants live in the mountains and forests, their bodies are very flexible, and it is normal for them not to be caught, but Noah didn't want to say it, so he silently put the pheasants on a wooden stick and put them on the fire.

Merlin sat on the stone with a desolate expression, but soon Merlin recovered, for the pheasant on the fire had given off a faint scent.

In the expectant gaze of everyone, the tongue of fire kept licking the pheasant, roasting it to the outside and tender inside.

After a while, the pheasant was fully cooked, regardless of the hot temperature, Noah directly tore off a leg, and the rest of the pheasant was eaten by Bron's people while he ate the chicken leg in his hand, and the speed was far faster than Noah's speed of eating chicken legs.

The chicken leg in Noah's hand was only half gnawed, and Haier had already begun to smash his mouth, "I think we still need to catch a few more pheasants." ”

Noah looked at the oily Haier, but didn't speak, he was actually a little tired of eating this thing, he came from that world full of food, and he really didn't think much about this kind of food that was only roasted and processed.

Noah's thoughts, Haier couldn't understand, he thought Noah was unwilling, he was troublesome, and quickly explained: "After all, it's just breakfast, right? "There is still a lot of jerky in the package they are in, but since there is a pheasant, why eat something that can't be swallowed, the taste of jerky is actually not bad, but in the face of the real delicacy of the pheasant, it is always a little worse.

Merlin's mouth stopped chewing as he ate the drumsticks, and his eyes widened slightly, showing his nervousness, nervousness, obviously, of course, it was possible to wait a while, and continue the journey of catching pheasants.

Noah has no hope for this person whose theory is stronger than his hands-on ability, in the end, it is the team leader, and it is not good to not give face every time, Noah gave a step, "Let's catch it, how about you are responsible for roasting the team leader?"

Merlin felt a little desolate in his heart, and subtly felt that he had been taken care of, and felt that his position as the leader of the team was no longer guaranteed, and the chicken in his mouth was so bitter and tasteless.

Near noon, the group went down the mountain, and everyone held a pheasant in their hands, as well as some picked wild vegetables, wild mushrooms, etc., which were their food after that.

Back at the station, the question of where to put the pheasants was, and in order to ensure that the meat they ate would not change their taste, they were all caught alive.

"Kill now?" Davy suggested.

"It's all spoiled then!" Haier was dissatisfied.

"What about a shed?" Davy continued.

"These pheasants can fly up to the trees, and a little shed should not be able to sleep, so tie your legs and hang them on a stake. Blom said.

At present, it seems that this method is more reliable, Haier found a rope, Noah did it, tied the pheasants one by one, in order to prevent these pheasants from escaping, Noah deliberately tied the pheasants to the stake that was also tied to the sawtooth beast.

The pheasants seemed to be very afraid of the sawtooth, and all of them curled up in the corner, and the sawtooth lay on the ground, not looking at the pheasants, and did not lift their eyelids.

After Noah finished his work, Merlin said, "Let's go, let's go down the mountain for a walk." ”

"What are you going to do?" Bron, who was standing beside Noah and constantly counting pheasants, subconsciously asked, and then he realized that they were not here for an outing, but to persuade these villagers to leave.

A group of people descended the mountain.

After going down the mountain, before entering the village, three children playing with mud at the mouth of Zhuangzikou noticed them, in this world that was about to enter autumn, the three children were a little thinly dressed, and their faces lacked blood, but their eyes were bright, and they looked like they were playing with mud, and they stood up, wiped their muddy hands on their clothes and trousers, and ran over in a hurry.

"Uncle Mercenary!" a group of children surrounded Merlin, looking up at him with admiration.

The corners of Merlin's eyes twitched, he was hurt for the second time today, "Call brother." ”

Several children blinked suspiciously, and then looked at Noah and the others beside Merlin, meaning obviously, these people are the elder brothers.

Merlin felt desolate in his heart, felt the deep malice of the world, and rubbed the head of one of the children in his heart, and he said, "Little friend, where is your village chief's house?"

The children pointed to the east of the village and said in a milky voice, "The village chief's house is there!"

At this moment, a farmer covered in sweat walked from the path outside the village, and one of the children around Noah and one of their children ran over excitedly, "Grandpa!"

When the child ran to his side, the old man smiled and picked up the child, "Good grandson, playing with mud again, aren't you afraid that your father will beat you?"

The old man's words made the child in his arms tremble, "Grandpa, you can't let Dad beat me, I'm afraid of pain." The grandson was coquettish, but it was really funny, the old man smiled and pinched his grandson's buttocks.

After teasing his grandson for a while, the old man looked at Merlin and the others, "Master mercenary, are you looking for the village chief?"

"Yes. Merlin nodded.

"Why don't I take a few with me?" said the old man.

Merlin nodded, "Then I'll trouble you." ”

"Everywhere, it's all in the same village, it's just a few steps away, it's not troublesome. As he spoke, the old man put down his grandson, "Baby, go home and talk to your grandmother, cook more food, and the mercenaries will go to our house for dinner today." ”

"Really?" the child looked at Merlin and Noah expectantly, "Brothers, let's go to my house for dinner!"

The old man smiled and looked at Merlin, very simple, although he was old, his eyes were still dark and bright, "How is it, mercenary?"

Merlin shook his head, "We'll wait until we have something, so we won't bother." ”

The child pulling the old man's trouser leg blinked, "Go to my house for dinner, mercenary brother." ”

Brother...

Merlin's face straightened, "Okay, go." ”

With permission, the old man's grandson immediately ran out, and the children on the side refused, and came to Merlin's side one after another.

"Brother, brother, are you also coming to our house for dinner?"

"Go, go~" Merlin agreed to it all.

After a few blows, Brother Oh was bribed, and Noah didn't say anything about their team leader.

When all the children left happily, the old man took them to the village chief's house.

Walking in the village, the villagers who passed by all smiled and greeted Noah and them, and at the end of the end, they all asked if they would go to their house for dinner, although this village is not big, but it is very enthusiastic, along the way, Merlin's dinner has been scheduled for dozens of days.

When they arrived at the old village chief's house, Noah breathed a sigh of relief. The village chief's house is no different from the houses of other villagers, the village chief happens to be at home, sitting on a bamboo chair, cutting bamboo, a black dog squatting beside him, lying on the ground, quietly looking at the village chief, flicking his tail from time to time.

The old man who came with Noah didn't care about it, and directly pushed open the wooden door and walked in, and at the same time said to Noah: "Our village chief's craftsmanship is very good, and the chairs and tables made are very reliable, even if they are used for decades, they will not be broken!"

The black dog raised his head to see who was coming, wagged his tail and lay down again.

The village chief stood up, "John, you still like to talk nonsense, and the things I make are a little better than the old ones in the village next to me." ”

Obviously, the old man also knew who the old goods in the village chief's mouth were, and he laughed, "Then you are really not modest, by the way, my table is broken, you can quickly help me get a new one." ”

"It's broken again, it was only fixed last month!" Before the old man who brought them over, that is, John, the village chief waved his hand, "I know, I'll do it for you when it's free." As he spoke, the village chief looked at Merlin with a smile, "Lord mercenary, why don't you have lunch at my house?"

"Thank you for the kindness of the village chief, we have agreed to go to John's house to eat. ”

The village chief glared at John, "What about tomorrow?"

Merlin shook his head helplessly, his expression became serious, "Village Elder, I think I made it clear yesterday, according to the plan, this morning, you should leave for Shengcheng. ”

Merlin's sudden attack made the village chief and John stunned, and the smiles on their faces gradually disappeared, and the village chief said: "Lord mercenary, I have already told the villagers about leaving, but it is really not so fast. ”

"Why?" Merlin said, "Although it is the month of sowing now, if you don't plant now, there will be no food for the next year, I understand your concerns, but Ascension is with you, and these problems will be solved for you." ”

The village chief sighed, "I grew up here, and I have experienced nearly twenty Warcraft riots, and I remember how much Shengcheng has paid for us civilians, but this time there is really no way, there are two babies in our village to give birth!"

Merlin was taken aback, "Right away?"

The village chief said: "Count the days, it's just a matter of the next few days." ”

If it was other problems, Merlin could still think of a way, but this birth, he couldn't let the two pregnant women rush on the road, "The rest of the people left first, and the pregnant women and their families stayed." ”

The village chief looked embarrassed, "There are few people in our village, and every time we have a child, it is a very important thing, and everyone else wants to wait for the birth of the child before leaving." ”

Merlin was silent for a while, then sighed, "Let's leave as soon as possible." ”

The village chief nodded gratefully.

"Alright, let's go to my house for dinner first. John said with a smile and pulled Merlin out, but Merlin did not resist and followed John, and Noah and the others followed.

As soon as Noah and the others left, the small courtyard of the village chief's house was empty, the village chief sat back on the bamboo chair, the black dog next to the bamboo chair raised his head, and a middle-aged man walked in.

If Noah was still around, they would recognize that this was the person they had met on the mountain before.

The village chief lowered his head and didn't look at the person, "That person is a mercenary, you can't beat it." ”

The middle-aged man was silent for a while, "That person is a magician. ”

Village Chief, "......"

By the time he wanted to say something, the middle-aged man was gone.
