In the middle of the night, Eli lay on the plank bed and couldn't sleep for a long time.

The moment she was roughed up and locked in a prison, she almost thought that the enemy on the other side of the sea had captured the place and was about to take her as a slave. Although this nightmarish vision did not become a reality, until now, the lingering palpitations in her heart have not completely dissipated.

But more than fear, what made Ai Li feel more at a loss was the feeling of confusion.

The canoe can't float on the sea all the time – the World Island is big enough to feed everyone, but the canoe cannot. Just moving it had already consumed all of the dryads' magic, and they had to eat, drink, cloth, and utensils all with a little less, and they relied on the land to get a respite.

Therefore, she went to this sea, not only to see the dynasty that her people had described, but also to find an opportunity to dock the tree boat temporarily.

However, a hundred years have changed that dynasty completely.

From the news heard by Miss Mo Yun, it can be seen that the current kingdom is called the Great Apocalypse.

Both the policy toward aliens and the attitude toward diplomatic relations are completely different from those of the past.

This is the gap between books and reality......

Luckily, the place where she settled was ruled by Princess Qiguo, and judging from the conversation for half a night, this person seemed to be quite interested in the people of the World Island, and did not show much disgust for her...... This may mean that the opportunity for negotiation is not completely closed.

The thought of the sight of the World Island being engulfed in the flames of war and the many trees and boats scattering and fleeing made Ai Li's eyes sour. She grew up in the World Tree since she was a child, and all her knowledge of the Western Continent came from an ancient book, so she never thought that she would go to a strange continent alone.

Not only her, but for all the islanders, I am afraid it is an incredible thing.

But she knew the man was right.

Closing oneself will only be abandoned by the world.

The time has come for them to change.

Click-

With a soft sound, a dark shadow scurried up to the window.

Ellie almost screamed!

However, with the faint light of the moon, she soon discovered that this person was the woman who had brought her out of the dungeon, and her name seemed to be Li Lai.

The other man jumped into the room lightly and took off the hood on his head.

Ellie was surprised to find a pair of furry ears on top of her head.

Li turned out to be ...... Bestiality?

In an instant, most of Ellie's vigilance was lifted - the beasts were more miserable than the islanders on the other side of the sea, and as long as they were discovered, they would basically be punished with capital punishment, and most of them could not even be slaves. They were at least protected by the dryads, and for a time they had built a prosperous state, but the beasts had nothing, were scarce in number, and their abilities were very low, and they were often hunted and entertained by people.

Looking at Li, she felt a sense of sympathy in her heart.

The fox demon walked to the side of the bed, put down the copper basin in his hand, and lifted the lid.

An extremely fragrant smell suddenly spread throughout the room.

Good...... What a delicious taste!

Ai Li's mouth was almost reflexively watering.

When Miss Mo Yun asked her what she wanted to eat, because she didn't know the eating habits here, she just needed some fruit to be on the safe side, and it was not a big problem to satisfy her hunger, but she was still far from being full.

Now that she was tickled by the scent, her stomach immediately churned.

But how does the contents of the pot look like...... Crab?

Can this reptile also be eaten?

While she was still surprised, Li had already pinched one of them and threw it into her mouth, pointing at her as well.

This is the bestial man inviting himself......

Listening to the sound of the other party's clucking, Ai Li finally decided to try it - no matter what, Li had rescued her from the cage, and she should not turn away the other party's kindness. Silently reciting in her heart that "closing oneself will only be abandoned by the world", she slowly stretched out her hand.

When the crunchy shell cracked in her mouth, dripping salty and delicious juice, Ellie couldn't help but hum!

It turns out that crabs can not only be eaten, but can also be made so delicious!

The soft and warm crab meat flowed into her stomach, relaxing her tense nerves a lot.

The islanders' diet is mostly based on fruits and fish, and the world island has never lacked these things, so that their recipes have not changed much for hundreds of years.

She didn't think there was anything wrong with it before.

But now Eli was vaguely beginning to understand why the clansman wanted everyone to look further afield.

The two of you take a bite and I take a bite, and quickly finish dividing the dishes in the basin.

"Thank you. Ai Li rubbed her slightly moist eyes and whispered to the fox demon. Since Qiguo treats foreign races quite harshly, she must have experienced a rather difficult time. But even so, she still blends into the world of ordinary people - even if she needs to wear a hood at all times and hide her tail behind her, she does not forget to lend a helping hand and comfort herself in a foreign country.

Even bestials can do this, so what reason do they have to retreat at this moment? Even if the chances are slim, she wants to try her best.

It's like tasting this pot of crabs.

......

Li jumped out of the window, climbed onto the roof two or three times, and the long-awaited Shanhui immediately appeared.

"How's it going? Did she eat it?"

"Of course. Li snorted lightly, "The cross-border spell can't be difficult for me, let alone a fried crab?"

"That's good...... Shanhui licked his lips, "I want to eat crabs too." ”

"If you eat it and forget it, what's the use of giving it to you?"

"Will she remember it after eating it?" Shan Hui was unconvinced.

"Sending charcoal in the snow, a desperate boat is certainly more impressive than a normal meal. It's like ......," she said with a slight pause.

"Like what?"

"You don't understand, you want to go slowly. ”

For some reason, Shan Hui felt that the fox demon's tone had become quite gentle, so much so that he once thought that he had been hit by a difficult technique. "So the solicitation was effective?"

"That's nature. Demons have a stronger physique than humans, but they are often lacking in the spiritual aspect, and with a little temptation, they can be used by me. Li clasped his hands to his chest and turned his back to the bright moonlight and said, "People can stand out because of their smart minds, so as the most intelligent demon, do you think there is any problem for the fox demon to become the head of all demons in the world?"

Here, this is the boss he is familiar with!

Shanhui couldn't help but wagging his tail and whining into the sky.

......

Xia Fan walked out of the study after writing the main points of the assembly line for Mo Yun, and found a plate on the square table in the hall, and a note was pasted on the side.

"I made you some supper, eat it while it's hot, and don't go to bed too late. 」

He opened the lid and found that it was a bowl of fried crab that had been made by Li before.

Xia Fan smiled and picked up the plate and tried to eat it.

"Hmm...... That guy's craft isn't bad. ”

Just as he was about to enjoy the supper, a long wolf howl suddenly came from outside the courtyard.

As soon as you hear it, you know it's the tengu barking.

I obviously told him not to talk nonsense after nightfall, so as not to disturb other people's good dreams.

Xia Fan walked into the yard angrily and funny, followed the prestige, and then saw a man and a dog standing on the roof in the distance.

Under the reflection of the moon, Li's figure stood proudly, his hair and tail flying up and down, like ribbons dancing in the wind, with an indescribable sense of freedom and ease.

Although the night obscures most of the details, the delicate lines and moonlit outlines make for a stunning view.

While enjoying this scene, Xia Fan happily finished his supper.
