In the evening, in the woods.

A small team of adventurers sat on the ground in the woods. Everyone lit a bonfire, set up a wooden frame to bake food, and chatted and laughed.

Not far away, Yun Fei hid in a big tree, looking coldly at the adventurers under the tree, while waiting for the night to fall.

He still remembers the matter of incarnating as a wolf cub clearly. Legend has it that the wolf is the darling of the moon god, so it is always day and night. He wasn't sure if he would turn into a wolf again at night. To be on the safe side, he hid in a large tree and tried not to come into contact with adventurers.

When you're a wolf, life and freedom are in the hands of adventurers, and that's a terrible feeling. Especially the weird dream he had last night made him even more afraid.

In the dream, he completely gave up his human dignity, like an artificially bred domestic dog, in order to please the beautiful hostess, he fought hard against the beast. He didn't care much about the final death of the Grim Reaper.

A full moon hangs over the treetops, shedding a cold silver glow that dispels the sun's residual warmth.

The worrying thing didn't happen, which couldn't help but make Yun Fei breathe a sigh of relief. He even deliberately exposed his body to the leaves of the trees, bathed in the moonlight, and after a long time, his body was normal except for the slightest coolness.

After a short rest, the team of adventurers quickly left to continue their adventure for the night.

Yun Fei waited for a few more moments, and only when the adventurer team had gone far did he slowly fall to the ground and step forward to light the bonfire again. He has been hungry for a day to avoid the player.

In a short time, he emerged from the woods with a fat rabbit in his hand. The rabbit has already been twisted off its neck and skinned by him. Because there were no knives and no water nearby, he didn't clean up his meats.

Adventurer players can easily deal with this problem. By using Gathering on the corpses of beasts, you can easily collect resources such as meat pieces and fur, exchange them with NPCs, or cook them yourself.

And Yunfei has become an NPC, a native of the game world, but he can only use this primitive way of survival, which makes him feel a little weird.

Of course, adventurers can only collect 10% of the material resources on the prey when they use the gathering technique, and after performing the gathering technique, the beast corpse will disappear quickly, while the NPC can basically collect ninety percent of the materials when collecting the prey, and if the conditions permit, it is possible to collect 100% of the materials.

Adventurers tend to prefer a fast-paced combat life, and they can't handle monster corpses without the leisure to take longer to deal with them.

Unlike the aborigines, killing monsters does not gain experience, but can only be used as a source of material collection, and correspondingly, it is often at the cost of life. So in general, the aborigines rarely go out to hunt.

......

The roasted and browned rabbit, a little fat dripping down, splashed a spark on the campfire, making a crackling sound. The tempting smell of flesh came in bursts, making Yunfei couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

Seeing that the rabbit was almost ripe, he hurriedly tore off a rabbit's hind leg, and he didn't care about the hot mouth, so he opened his mouth and took a bite, exhaling hot breath while chewing and swallowing into his stomach, and then sat on the ground contentedly and tasted it slowly.

A rabbit leg had just been put down, Yun Fei's ears moved, and he inadvertently heard the sound of talking, it was a group of adventurers passing by by chance. Yun Fei hurriedly unscrewed his other leg, and then didn't bother to extinguish the bonfire, turned around and ran in the direction of the woods, and climbed to the trunk of the tree again to hide.

At this time, the team of adventurers finally came out of the woods and came to the campfire. Through the bonfire and moonlight, Yun Fei saw the appearance of the adventurers, who were none other than the Free Elves and others.

"Why are they?" Yun Fei thought in disbelief, and didn't mean to go out to say hello.

"It smells so good. Big Mouth took a deep breath, and when he saw that there was no one else around the campfire, he couldn't help but stride forward, tore off the rabbit's front legs, and opened his mouth to eat.

"You're a pig, you know how to eat, eat!" the corner of his mouth stepped forward and nodded at the forehead of the big mouth.

While eating with a big mouth, he said vaguely: "It's okay, anyway, in the game, no matter how you eat, you're not afraid of getting fat, I'll satisfy my cravings." ”

Xiang Dashao took the free elf to sit by the campfire, tore off the last rabbit leg and handed it to his wife's mouth, and said, "Wife, try this, I smell quite tempting." ”

"Yes...... Uh-huh...... Hiss...... It's just that the taste is too light, like no salt. Big Mouth said as he continued to "wrestle" with the rabbit legs.

The free elf politely refused, "I can't eat it." ”

"You!" Xiang Dashao said amusedly and distressedly, "Just for a little wolf, as for it?" Xiang Dashao said, handing the rabbit leg to Dazui, who hurriedly caught it.

"That's it, sister!" the corner of his mouth was also persuaded by the side, "I've been looking for a long time, and I've searched all the places I should be looking for, and the little white wolf must have run away." ”

Xiang Dashao looked at the corners of her mouth with a gesture in her eyes, and she stopped talking at that time. Xiang Dashao gently touched the hair of the free elf, let her lean on his shoulder, and said softly: "You, if you really like it, I'll just help you catch another one." Why bother, sullen!"

"Hmm. The free elves echoed absentmindedly.

"If you want me to say, you should ask Zhao Yang for compensation for this matter. Big Mouth casually threw away the gnawed bone, and continued to gnaw on another rabbit leg before explaining: "He said it well last night, the little wolf couldn't run in the resettlement house, and he didn't expect it to disappear the next day." This must be a system bug, and it is only natural to find the system to compensate. When the time comes, you can choose a suitable reward, and it is estimated that the system will help you find the little wolf, which is no problem. ”

The free elves' eyes lit up when they heard this. The three of them looked at the big mouth in unison.

"Why are you all looking at me like that?" said Big Mouth, bewildered.

The corners of his mouth tugged at the ears of his big mouth and said, "Husband, you didn't say it earlier." It's so bad that after we have been looking for so long, our legs are thin. ”

"That's it!" Xiang Dashao also agreed.

Big mouth hurriedly said: "Actually, I'm doing it for your good." If we find it ourselves, we can ask for additional benefits from the system. ”

"You know you want benefits!" The corners of his mouth glanced at him with a big mouth, and his eyes rolled, but he said again: "Eh, I said, the guard stationed at the gate lost his pet and said that he didn't see it, this must be a bug, right?"

"Not necessarily. "The guards are derelict at best, and at most they will be punished by the system." It's the same thing as losing a pet, and I don't think we can get any benefit. ”

"Punishment is punishment. The corners of his mouth said with a hint of humor, "Something can't happen, the guards don't have any responsibility, right? If you want me to say, you should be punished heavily, and it's good to get out of my bad breath." ”

"Let's go, we'll go back now. ”

Yun Fei immediately squatted on the tree. The punishment of NPCs sounds mysterious, and it seems that in this game, it is really possible. He didn't want Song Qi to be blamed because of this incident. Since this matter started with yourself, let's end it by yourself.

Thinking so, Yunfei jumped down from the tree and got out of the woods, still clutching the rabbit's leg in his hand. Looking at the remaining roast rabbits on the campfire, he exaggerated and shouted, "Oh, my rabbit, I haven't eaten a few bites, why is it gone?"

Everyone couldn't help but look at each other, and Big Mouth hurriedly threw the rabbit leg in his hand secretly, wiped his mouth, and wiped his hand on his body, trying to confuse the past.

Seeing that his companions were all looking at him, he smiled awkwardly, and said haha: "That, I'm sorry, little brother, I'm just hungry for a while." Otherwise, I'll make it up to you. By the way, I've got some barbecue here, so why don't I fill your belly first? Big Mouth hurriedly took out the roast meat in the package. The barbecue was obviously a food bought in the huge sea, and the taste was much more delicious than the rabbit meat roasted by Yunfei.

Yun Fei couldn't help but wonder. He shook his head with a smile, didn't take the barbecue, and instead said, "Actually, I overheard your conversation just now, can I ask you to let go of Brother Song Qi?"

"Who is Song Qi?" everyone was at a loss.

Yunfei explained: "Song Qi is the resident of the small village who guards the resettlement house. ”

"Wait, you ......" The corners of his mouth hurriedly shouted to stop, circled around Yunfei, looked around, and shouted, "Are you the one the NPC said that came out of the resettlement house in the morning." With short silver hair and a cold face, it must be you, right?"

"It's me. Yunfei nodded in confirmation.

"Sure enough, it's you. The corners of his mouth immediately stepped forward, tugging at Yunfei's shirt with a fierce face, and said, "Say, where did you hide your sister's Xiaobai?"

Yun Fei said with a smile: "If I say, I don't know where Xiaobai went, do you believe it or not?"

The corners of his mouth said with contempt: "Only by believing in you can you have ghosts." Seeing the way you grin, it must be an excuse made up. Tell me honestly, where did you hide Xiaobai?"

"I can't hide it from you. Yun Fei shook his head with a smile, and then said, "Xiaobai is the silver-white little wolf, he did leave with me in the morning." But don't you want to know, why did it go with me?"

"Why?" the free elves hurriedly asked.

Yunfei Zhengse said: "For freedom." ”

"Freedom?" the free elf muttered along.

(⊙o⊙) What? Freedom? Don't tease me. There was a look of disbelief on the corner of his mouth, "Do you know what freedom means?"

Yun Fei glanced at the corner of his mouth meaningfully, and said, "Since the word freedom came out of my mouth, I think I can still understand it." And the little wolf wants me to take it away, obviously knowing the meaning of freedom. ”

"No way. The corners of his mouth immediately denied, "How can you possibly understand the meaning of freedom?"

Yun Fei said: "In my opinion, freedom is to be able to be unrestrained in this world, gallop across the world, and control your own destiny. Do you think I'm right?"

The corners of his mouth opened wide, and he couldn't find a reason to refute for a long time.

The free elf hurriedly explained, "I just want to help Xiaobai, take care of it, and adopt it." How can it be said that it is deprived of its freedom? It can survive in this world as well, and it ...... And it will survive better, at least without worrying about death. ”

Yun Fei shook his head and said, "In your opinion, you want to adopt it kindly, but in my opinion, you just want a plaything, and Xiaobai's life and death are no longer up to him." Imagine one day, when you get bored and leave this world completely, Xiaobai will inevitably disappear from this world. In that case, where is the freedom?"

"In my opinion, I'd rather die than lose my freedom!" Yun Fei said solemnly, and also drew a bottom line in his heart.
