Chapter 42: A Little Episode in the Journey
"Haha, but sword practice is very hard, can you persevere?" Ao Xingfeng smiled, and then asked seriously. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"I will definitely persevere! as long as Uncle Ao is willing to teach me. Garlanor said firmly.
"Then I'll teach you when I have time, okay, let's go. Ao Xingfeng stood up, Amasasia followed behind with a resentful expression, and Garanord jumped up, and he could see that he was very happy to learn Ao Xingfeng's swordsmanship.
Walking through the snow-covered woods, Ao Xingfeng and his party came to a stone mine, one step closer to the city of lakes.
More than half of the mines have been excavated, and only a few half-hills remain on the land, where the building materials of the lake capital were taken.
Snowflakes gradually began to fall in the sky, but the spacious road had already been covered with a layer of snow, the surroundings were quiet and serene, some bird calls came from time to time in the woods beside the road, and the sound of stepping on the snowflakes was very pleasant, Ao Xingfeng and his party pulled the clothes on their bodies, and their noses and ears were frozen red.
"Whew~" Ao Xingfeng took a breath of hot air, floated out a few meters away before slowly dissipating, feeling the unique atmosphere of winter, Ao Xingfeng enjoyed it very much, and closed his eyes slightly.
"Uncle Ao, look!" said Garanord in surprise, pointing to one place, breaking Ao Xingfeng's mood of feeling nature.
"Oh, don't nibble on dry food. Looking along the place pointed by Garanord, a pure white snow hare came out of the woods, bouncing on the road in a cute manner, and when he heard Garlanord's voice, he stopped, and stood up to look at the three people in the distance.
"Good eyes, you're waiting for me here. As soon as the words fell, before they could reply, Ao Xingfeng crossed a distance of 100 meters in an instant, and the snow rabbit pulled its legs as if fleeing into the woods, but Ao Xingfeng's dark tightness was already out of the sheath, and the sharp blade slashed through the back of the snow rabbit's neck.
Bright red blood was sprinkled on the pure white snow, the warm blood melted a little white snow, the snow rabbit squeaked and fell to the ground, Ao Xingfeng picked up the snow rabbit's ears and walked towards the two.
"Garanord, why did you let such a cute little creature be discovered by Uncle Ao!, and you are responsible for its death!" Amastasha blamed Garanord.
"I don't want to, I just want Uncle Ao to see the cute snow rabbit, who knows that he will directly..."
"Hmph, I'm ignoring you!" said Amasasia, tilting her head to the side and shuffling.
Garanord stood awkwardly in place, watching Ao Xingfeng's arrival.
Ao Xingfeng walked up to the two with the snow rabbit and said with a smile: "Well done Jialan, we can have a good meal today." Saying that, Ao Xingfeng gave a thumbs up, and Jia Lanord nodded with a reluctant smile, but this smile is more ugly than crying.
"Now rest around here for a while, otherwise the rabbit won't be so delicious if it gets stiff." Ao Xingfeng led the two to the foot of a mine.
"You guys watch here, I'll go find some firewood. Ao Xingfeng put the rabbit on a stone, turned around and walked towards the woods, and the food that was about to be eaten made Ao Xingfeng have a lot of motivation.
When Ao Xingfeng walked away, Amasasia pointed to the corpse of the snow rabbit and said to Garanord with a crying voice: "Look at the good deeds you have done! The poor little rabbit just wanted to take a walk, woo, and was killed by Uncle Ao." ”
"Sister, I'm sorry. Garanord looked at Amasasia and didn't know what to do, but he really wanted to taste what this rabbit tasted like, but his sister was too kind to bear to see the killing, and it was the same when they were at home before, so that their parents had to deal with it outside before bringing it home.
Garranor crouched beside the stone where the snow hare's corpse was kept, looking at its cause of death, the hare's wound was so smooth and untwisted that it was hard to imagine the marks that could be cut at this time under the high-speed movement of both sides.
Looking at Garlanod, he swallowed his saliva because he found that he was hungry, remembering the rabbit broth made by his parents before, and a large amount of saliva was secreted in his mouth, and his stomach rumbled at the same time.
Amasasia shrugged, "You still want to eat poor snow rabbits!
Garlanor scratched his head and stood up, now he couldn't eat the delicious rabbit meat, and blamed himself for staring at the snow rabbit all the time.
Ao Xingfeng returned to the foot of the mine with a large bundle of dry firewood, lit a campfire, pulled out a bone dagger, and began to dispose of the body of the snow rabbit.
"Garland, you go and make the campfire bigger, there is no river around here, we can only burn a little snow. When Garanord heard Ao Xingfeng's words, he went to the fire to add firewood, and Amasasia was called by Ao Xingfeng to collect the snow on the ground.
Amasasia didn't dare to play petty in front of Ao Xingfeng, and reluctantly held the hurried snow into the utensils with a pout.
After working for a while, the skin of the snow rabbit was perfectly peeled off by Ao Xingfeng, and a few tough grasses were tied around the rabbit's skin, and then tied to a few wooden sticks to form a large net.
Cut the rabbit into large pieces, dispose of the hare's internal organs, cut off the hare's head, and throw aside the unwanted ones.
The snow-covered utensils were baked on the campfire by Ao Xingfeng, and after a while the snow melted into clear water.
Ao Xingfeng scooped up some water, washed the blood off the rabbit meat, and waited until the hot water boiled, and Ao Xingfeng threw the rabbit meat in.
From time to time, he took some spices from the bag on his waist and threw them in, these spices were obtained when he was still in the Templar Order, and Ao Xingfeng only used them when he ate cooked food, so there was still a lot left.
Garanord stood by his side, his throat stirring, and the aroma of the pot emanating from the pot aroused the cravings in his belly.
Amasasia sat pitifully with red eyes, but the sound of the pot made her stomach growl, and she blushed and felt like she turned her head to the side.
Ao Xingfeng took out three plates of rabbit broth from the pot, took two dishes to Jia Lannod, and began to feast on himself.
"Well~ tired all day, delicious food is the best treat. Ao Xingfeng's face was filled with a happy smile.
"Sister, eat quickly, only after eating can you have strength, and it won't be so cold. Garanord handed the rabbit broth to Amasasia and said, Amasasia looked at Ao Xingfeng, and didn't dare to mess around, so he scooped a little broth with a wooden spoon and put it in his mouth.
"Hmm!" Amasasia's face flushed, "It's delicious!" After saying that, he began to gobble up regardless of the character setting, and Garanord selected the fatty rabbit meat from the broth he had not eaten before and put it on Amasasia's plate.
"Hmph, I forgive you. Amasasia said arrogantly, and continued to gobble up.
Ao Xingfeng looked at the two elves jokingly on the side, such a scene is undoubtedly warm, and the trip is composed of such and such a happy, or excited, or sad, or sad, or warm scene. It is also because there are many interesting things in travel that Ao Xingfeng will choose to be the nanny of the two.
As it grew dark, two elves and a human sat down around the warm fire, chatting about all sorts of interesting anecdotes.
A bright moon hung high in the sky, Ao Xingfeng arranged many guards and cold protection measures around the camp, and the three of them wrapped themselves in animal skins and slept peacefully around the fire.
