The further they went, the denser the woods became, they walked very slowly, while guarding against the attacks of other candidates, they had to be careful of poisonous insects and fierce beasts in the forest, and along the way, they encountered a few wild boars and jackals, Qin Bai was careful about the embankment, and did not clash with the beasts.

After a few steps forward, he suddenly heard the murmuring of the water in front of him, Qin Bai quietly probed out, and saw a stream meandering in the forest, the stream water was crystal clear, a few wild deer pheasants were drinking water by the stream, and there was no one else around, Qin Bai put his index finger on his mouth, made a silent prompt, quietly picked up two stones from the ground, and the spiritual power wrapped the stones and flew straight to the heads of the two pheasants, calling "on", "poof" two sounds, and the pheasant fluttered a few times and died in place. The wild deer pheasant was frightened and flapped away.

Luo Zhenzhen said angrily: "We are here to participate in the assessment, why do you still have the leisure to hunt." ”

Qin Bai didn't answer, he dodged over and picked up the pheasant, and quickly retreated to the hidden place. Only then did he explain to her: "The matter of the assessment will be known tomorrow at noon, and now you are not hungry, and it is difficult to guarantee that your stomach will not rumble at night." ”

Luo Zhenzhen said: "Isn't it easy to catch a pheasant and hare, when is it not too late to fight again when you are hungry?" ”

Qin Bai said: "Do you want to eat raw?" ”

"I can make my own fire, so why should I eat raw food?" Luo Zhenzhen said with disdain.

"When you light a fire at night, are you afraid that others will not know where you are hiding? If you want to stutter when you are hungry at night, you have to prepare it now, and it will be difficult to bake it when it gets dark later. Qin Bai said.

"Humph! Do you want to care? Luo Zhenzhen knew that she was not considerate, but it was difficult to admit it for the sake of face.

"I'll roast the pheasant, you have to have some strength, do you see the alder tree? Pick a large leaf and pick a dozen leaves, wash them with stream water, and I will be useful for a while. Luo Zhenzhen knew that her experience in jungle life was not as rich as Qin Bai's, so she stopped arguing with him and flew up the tree to choose leaves.

Qin Bai first dug a small pit, and then began to deal with the pheasant, plucking the feathers, disemboweling, removing the internal organs, in one go, burying the chicken feathers and organs in the small pit, and covering it with fallen leaves, before carrying the pheasant to the stream to wash it for later use. After hurriedly washing the pheasant, he quickly returned to the hiding place, found a suitable wooden branch, put the pheasant on the stick, and called on the flame of spiritual power to roast the chicken.

Luo Zhenzhen returned to Qin Bai after washing the alder leaves, and when she saw Qin Bai roasting with spiritual power, she opened her mouth with a burst of mockery, "You are really stupid, wouldn't it be effortless to pick up some dead branches, how can you spend such spiritual power." ”

Qin Bai gave her another roll of the eyes, "Say you're stupid, you're really stupid to get home, if there is fire at night, you are afraid of exposing the target, and if there is smoke during the day, you won't expose the target?" ”

Baking with the flame of spiritual power is different from firewood, it will not produce thick smoke, how could Luo Zhenzhen not know this truth, but her brain didn't react for a while. "You know a lot!" Throwing the alder leaves to Qin Bai, he turned his head and sulked to himself.

Qin Bai didn't bother to pay attention to her, and concentrated on roasting the pheasant by himself. After a while, the pheasant was roasted and oily, exuding a burst of aroma. Qin Bai picked some grass fruits on the spot, crushed them and smeared them on the chicken, and the aroma of roast chicken, which was endowed with a spicy smell, was even more attractive.

Luo Zhenzhen was not really angry after all, and finally couldn't resist the temptation of the fragrance, and surrounded her with an embarrassed smile. "Qin Bai, I didn't see that you still have this hand."

Qin Mo's greedy eyes were golden: "Xiaobai's craftsmanship still needs to be said, we used to come to the forest to catch some game and roast it, but unfortunately the seasoning here is not complete, otherwise Xiaobai's cooking is a hundred times better than this." ”

Qin Bai touched his nose embarrassedly, "Hehe, as the saying goes, a soul master who can't cook barbecue is not a good blister." Qin Bai tore off a piece of chicken and put it in his mouth and tasted it, feeling okay. He tore a piece and handed it to Qin Mo. Luo Zhenzhen looked at Qin Bai with blank eyes, as if to say, "Give me a piece and let me taste it." "Qin Bai deliberately pretended not to see her, and deliberately angered her while eating;" The outside is scorched and the inside is tender, fragrant but not firewood, the fat of the pheasant and the spicy fragrance of the grass and fruit complement each other, and the gift of nature is really magical. ”

Luo Zhenzhen snatched the roast pheasant, tore off a chicken leg by the trend, and didn't care about the heat, so she couldn't wait to put it in her mouth and gnaw it, and a mouthful of meat was hot in her mouth and blew the cold air. Qin Bai and his sister laughed when they saw it, and as expected, they were punched and kicked by Luo Zhenzhen.

Qin Bai tore another piece of meat and handed it to Jin Kun, "Senior Jin, please taste it." ”

I saw Jin Kun wave his sleeves, "The kindness is received, and the old man doesn't need to eat." And he said no more.

When everyone had eaten and a pheasant had finished eating, Qin Bai evenly divided the remaining pheasant into seven or eight pieces, each of which was wrapped in alder leaves and folded neatly for when hungry. The small alder leaves are also the size of two palms, Qin Bai deliberately asked Luo Zhenzhen to choose a large piece of alder leaves, which are five inches wide and as long as a forearm, so it is very convenient to wrap the chicken in it. Then Qin Bai took off his long shirt, wrapped the rations in the long robe, tied it into a wrapping shape, and carried it cross-body on his back, this action even Luo Zhenzhen couldn't help but admire.

After preparing for food, it was almost time to apply, and both of them were still missing a soul tablet.

Luo Zhenzhen said: "Instead of being careful all the time, why don't we take the initiative to attack and grab a few soul pieces from him." ”

Qin Bai said: "I also have this intention. ”

The two of them were not ambiguous, they just did what they said, and set off to walk deeper into the dense forest.

As the forest deepened, the fallen leaves on the ground became thicker and thicker, and the trees began to become taller, the green moss spread upwards on the trunks, the cobwebs built bridges between the trees, and the itching on the face was extremely uncomfortable, the dense leaves covered the sky, and a few rays of sunlight shone on the fallen leaves through the swaying leaves, and under the fallen leaves was leaf fertilizer made from the decaying branches and leaves over the years, exuding a faint smell of corruption.

Luo Zhenzhen frowned, a little unable to stand the smell. "Why didn't you see a figure after walking for a long time, where did everyone go?" Luo Zhenzhen complained.

Qin Bai said: "I'll go to the top of the tree to have a look, the vision there will be broader, and I will definitely be able to gain something." ”

After Qin Bai finished speaking, he flew into a big tree, standing on the treetops, it was another general scenery, looking at it, the eyes were full of green, and the crowns of the trees were like a wave in the sea, and the gusts of wind blew, like the waves rolling. Looking east, a tall tower stands tall in the forest, the red walls and gray tiles are magnificent, and it is only 2 miles away from you, and that is the meeting place tomorrow afternoon. Looking to the west, he suddenly saw a wisp of light smoke rising up, only a hundred meters away, Qin Bai was overjoyed, quietly fell down the tree, made a silent gesture, and whispered the direction and distance to Luo Zhenzhen, and the two crept towards the target.

When there was only seven or eight zhang away from the target, Fang clearly saw that it was a young man alone in the forest to make a fire to roast a hare, Qin Bai and Luo Zhenzhen glanced at each other, the two separated left and right, and slowly outflanked this person from both sides, the man did not notice anything wrong, his eyes were all focused on the hare, the two of them outflanked to a distance of three zhang, and jumped out at the same time, Qin Bai shouted: "You are surrounded by us, hand over the soul piece, we will let you leave safely." ”

The young man slowly raised his head, calmly extinguishing the flames on the ground, and did not show any panic, "No, you are surrounded by us. ”
