Chapter Twenty-Five: Buying Road Meat

Since making the crossbow arrows, Sun Licheng's hunting efficiency has improved a lot.

With a whoosh, a powerful crossbow plunged an arrow into the elk's hind legs, and the speed of the elk's running was immediately reduced. Sun Licheng hurriedly put away the crossbow, drew his horizontal knife and chased after the prey. Seeing that he was about to catch up with the elk, Sun Licheng's heart suddenly tightened, stopped, and looked vigilantly at the small hill in front of him.

After a while, a very tall wolf appeared on the hillside, and then a large group of wild wolves howled from a distance, and quickly surrounded the wounded elk in the middle.

Seeing that the prey in his hand was robbed by the other party, Sun Licheng was very angry, but the other party was overwhelming, especially the gray wolf on the hillside with fierce eyes, which made him feel a lot of pressure.

At the sound of wolves tearing at elk, Sun Licheng put the knife across his right hand and slowly stepped back.

Seeing that the opponent had been scared away, the gray wolf on the hillside was full of disdain, and couldn't help but let out a howl of victory, and the surrounding wolves immediately echoed, looking very rampant.

Since the wolves migrated to the surrounding area, they began to dominate the area, and many animals were oppressed by them, including Sun Licheng. This is the second time that the opponent has snatched the prey. Although he had the intention to resist, there were at least thirty or more adult gray wolves in this wolf pack, so he had no choice but to give up. Some of the surrounding beasts have also fought with them, but the wolf king of this wolf pack is very good, and every time he causes the other party to be seriously injured, or even killed directly. As a result, many carnivores began to migrate from here in search of prey elsewhere. Even Sun Licheng also planned to leave here after the equipment at hand was ready, and went to find the fragment of the godhead of the magma god.

Because of the threat of wolves, Sun Licheng's hunting targets were reverted to alpine snow rats and meadow voles. Not long after, Sun Licheng discovered that the wolves had stretched their claws to the edge of the meadow.

This time, the wolves ran into their opponents, and the wolves and rabbits were much more numerous than the wolves. After several skirmishes, the wolves returned in vain. According to this posture, Sun Licheng believes that it is only a matter of time before the two sides fight.

Every time Sun Licheng walked to the meadow, he couldn't help but stare at the mysterious road for a long time, which made the magma god fragment very curious. He asked the Lord of the Stars.

"When I made the flesh, I first used the goblin corpses of the Goblin Empire. Presumably there is something in the ruins of the Goblin Empire that is attracting pure goblins to return. In the past, I was in control of my body, so I didn't find anything abnormal. And now with a mortal controlling the body, those devices work. ”

The Lord of the Stars thought for a moment and said.

"Chances are, that's what you're saying. The technology of the Goblin Empire is still very powerful. ”

The magma god shard nodded in agreement.

Sun Licheng wanted to explore the depths along this road several times, but was blocked by wolves and rabbits, so he had no choice but to return.

............

The valley and the meadow are not far apart. The climate here is harsh and the food is not plentiful. Especially after the arrival of the wolves, many animals have migrated from here, making hunting more difficult.

As the prey decreased, the gray wolves went to the meadow more and more often, and the conflict with the wolf and rabbit became more and more intensified. Finally, the conflict between the two sides broke out.

On that day, Sun Licheng, who was out hunting, heard the terrible howl of wolves and wolves and rabbits from the direction of the meadow and hurried over. When he was almost to the meadow, he saw several wounded gray wolves fleeing, and the former majestic wolf king was also mixed in. It's just that this time the wolf king was obviously seriously injured, and one leg was unnaturally dragged to the ground, obviously lame.

After waiting for a while, seeing that there were no other gray wolves and wolves and rabbits, Sun Licheng quietly touched them.

The meadow was a mess, and more than thirty fat rabbits and nearly twenty strong gray wolves fell to death on the grass, and the blood that flowed out stained the grass bright red, and the whole scene was extremely tragic. Although the wolves were repulsed, the wolves and rabbits were also obviously hit hard, and only a few lone rabbits were on guard, completely losing their former power.

Seeing a fat alpine antelope lying in the middle of the battlefield, Sun Licheng guessed that this might be the trigger for this conflict. However, the contradictions between the two sides have been going on for a long time, and it is reasonable for conflicts to break out.

Seeing that the wolf rabbit was hit hard, Sun Licheng couldn't help but feel a move in his heart. He got up from his hiding place and walked to the meadow with a grin.

The wolf rabbits who had just finished the battle were very alert, and they found Sun Licheng at the first time, howling and sending an alarm in the direction of the meadow. Soon, more than a dozen wolf rabbits rushed from the depths of the meadow under the leadership of the big gray rabbit.

Sun Licheng held a horizontal knife in his hand, walked to the edge of the meadow and stopped, quietly waiting for the big gray rabbit.

The image of the big gray rabbit is not good, and it has been injured several times in the battle just now. In particular, the continuous use of magic makes it very mentally sluggish. Faced with Sun Licheng's sudden appearance, it could only helplessly bring its subordinates to block it.

In the face of the intimidation and roaring of the wolves and rabbits, Sun Licheng seemed very calm. Seeing the embarrassed appearance of the wolves and rabbits, his heart blossomed with joy. The so-called paper tigers all rely on roaring, and he can see through the external strength of the wolves and rabbits at a glance, and he does not retreat a step, and he looks very calm.

Seeing that Sun Licheng was not frightened, the big gray rabbit was very anxious. After many battles, the big gray rabbit knew that Sun Licheng was not easy to deal with, and it was even more afraid that it would drag on for too long, and the corpses in one place would attract more fierce beasts, which would be tantamount to a catastrophe for the wolf and rabbit group. Suddenly, it felt a voice ring in its head, and after distinguishing, it was surprised to find that it was a message from Sun Licheng.

Since Sun Licheng learned to be friends of animals, he has been practicing diligently, and his communication with animals has become smoother and smoother. Just now, he saw that the wolf rabbits had been severely hit, so he thought about whether he could do something about it, so he took advantage of the big gray rabbit's inattention and activated his skills to pass on the friendly message. The Big Grey Rabbit is a magical beast with a high level of intelligence and can definitely understand what he means.

Sure enough, I saw that the big gray rabbit's body stiffened, and it was obvious that he had received Sun Licheng's information. But the big gray rabbit did not let down his vigilance, because all kinds of demonic beasts can communicate with each other, although Sun Licheng's appearance is strange, but it does not make the big gray rabbit how surprised he is that he can communicate with himself.

Soon, Sun Licheng received a warning message: "Invading guy, leave immediately! or we will tear you apart!" Although the communication of animal friends is very rough, the general meaning is still very clear.

Sun Licheng thought it was funny, "A beast is a beast, even if you become a monster, your brain is still so simple." Scare people and don't look at the situation in front of them. He couldn't help but say secretly in his heart. But it is precisely because of this that Sun Licheng feels that the ability of Animal Friends is very good. Although these beasts are ferocious, they are not as insidious and cunning as humans, and they are straightforward and easy to deal with.

Sun Licheng read in his heart: "I am Sun Licheng who lives around here, and I have no malice. I entered the meadow to see where the road leads, not to compete with you for prey. On the contrary, if I can find something to eat in the meadow, I can give you some. You need more food to restore your tribe now, and trust me in my sincerity. ”

Of course, Sun Licheng did not expect to impress the wolf rabbit in two sentences, and these animals were not so easily persuaded. Sure enough, the big gray rabbit clearly rejected Sun Licheng again.

Sun Licheng continued: "I didn't go inside to hunt, my prey is enough. And you're definitely not going to be able to stop me now. With that, he pulled out his crossbow bolt from his back, wound it and fired it at a small tree next to him. Only a humming sound was heard, and the crossbow arrow pierced the small tree.

The rabbits, who had seen the power of the crossbow earlier, were visibly in a commotion, their teeth bared even wider, and their "woo" roars came and went.

With the power of the crossbow arrow, Sun Licheng took out a roasted snow rat hind leg from his backpack and threw it at the feet of the big gray rabbit.

The snow rats here are huge, like piglets, and can be more than 60 centimeters long. One hind leg is very generous, and this leg is carefully roasted by Sun Licheng on the fire with spices and salt, and it exudes an enticing aroma.

Inevitably, the rabbits were in a commotion again, and Sun Licheng even felt that the eyes of the big gray rabbit were obviously bright.

Speaking of which, I have to mention Sun Licheng's cooking skills, on the earth, Sun Licheng cooks a good dish. After coming here, he used his magical body to taste all the animals and plants around him, and found many "spices", some of which even surprised Sun Licheng. Although the snow mouse looks very similar to a vole, the meat is delicious, and it is a rare delicacy after baking with seasonings, even the two gods in Sun Licheng's mind can't help but salivate when they see Sun Licheng's live broadcast of cooking, and they can't wait to rush out and take a bite.

"You can't go into the meadow. What if you're hunting? There's not enough food here for all of us to eat together. If you hunt your prey, our people will go hungry. Moreover, you have hunted voles here, and you have wounded our people. ”

This time, the big gray rabbit was a little loose, its mind passed to Sun Licheng, and after speaking, the big gray rabbit demonstrated as if it had to bare its sharp teeth to the boss.

In this world, today you kill me, tomorrow I kill you, everyone is prey and hunters, there is no racial hatred at all. The big gray rabbit said this, apparently wanting more food.

"This snow rat didn't hunt from the meadow. How about I give you the meat of a snow rat every time if you let me into the meadow? ”

Sun Licheng gritted his teeth, took out another mouse leg from his backpack and threw it in front of the gray rabbit, and said in his heart.

The big gray rabbit couldn't help but take a bite, and the deliciousness of the roasted snow rat leg suddenly made it feel the taste enzyme in its mouth explode. As a beast, even if it is a monster, where has it ever eaten such carefully roasted food. Delicious and Sun Licheng's promise finally made the big gray rabbit agree to open the meadow to Sun Licheng.

Originally, Sun Licheng was still afraid that he would be besieged by the wolves and rabbits after he entered the meadow, but the big gray rabbit obviously despised his question very much, and responded: "Since I promised you with our race, I will definitely not attack you." And I'll show you a route that will avoid the other wolf packs, but you'll have to give us two full roast snow hare every time you enter the meadow. ”

Look, wisdom is different, and it can provide value-added services.

Sun Licheng thought about it and agreed. Early the next morning, Sun Licheng made up the tickets with food, and everyone was happy, so he walked along the faintly visible road, following the route provided by the big gray rabbit, to the depths of the meadow.

Along the way, Sun Licheng felt that today's deal was very cost-effective. Because he found a lot of very useful things in the Great Meadow.

These things not only have edible plants, but also some energy-rich medicinal herbs, such as a water plant that has a good hemostatic effect. On top of that, it's a decimal fruit here, which has a strong stickiness. To the beasts, these fruits are of no use, but to Sun Licheng, they are the best binder!

Looking at the winding road, Sun Licheng was full of imagination about the situation ahead.

"It's called self-defeating. ”

The Lord of the Stars on the sofa held a wine glass and said helplessly to the magma god shard.

Indeed, this road leads to the most important facility of the Goblin Empire, which was once a battlefield of decisive battles and has become a forbidden place in the divine realm, and has always been monitored by gods.

Although the two Majesties didn't want to go over, they couldn't control this body, so they could only passively take risks with Sun Licheng.

"If only I had my own body, I wouldn't have to worry about it with him every time. I hope that when the time comes, the evil will turn into good fortune. ”

After the magma god fragment finished speaking, he picked up his wine glass and touched it with the Lord of the Stars, and drank it in one gulp.
