Volume 1 Mountain Village 73: Food I Don't Like

Outside the mountain village, on the avenue leading to the dark forest.

Noka carried a backpack that was not too flat, stuffed with some dry food, drinking water, a change of clothes, a guiding lamp and lamp oil, and expedition tools, and a sleeping bag on one shoulder, with a notepad in it.

He really planned to leave, and he had already said goodbye to the villagers and villagers.

If it weren't for the disappearance of Six-Six and the need to avoid suspicion about Mrs. Iris's affairs, he would have fled to the mountains after escaping from the underground works yesterday.

Now, Liuliu took the initiative to find him, and the witch was willing to help him take care of his sister Erica...... There was no reason for him to linger in the village, it was time to leave.

"You're going to go back, Six-Six." The human crouched down and reached for the snow-white beast at his feet.

After coming out of the church school, the other party gave him all the way.

After thinking about it, he put down his backpack and dug into it for a while, pulling out a leather bag.

He pinched something out of it with two fingers and gently placed it in front of the snow-white beast:

"Eat, you should be hungry after a day of wandering outside."

A human-like look flashed on the other party's face for a moment, as if he was surprised by what he had done.

But soon, like an ordinary little animal, it became interested in what seemed to be "food" in front of it.

Stretching out his paws, he patted the flap with a strange shape and a strange smell.

Then, take a closer look—

The snow-white beast immediately screamed as if it had smelled something unbearable, jumped aside, arched itself, the hair on its tail exploded, and assumed a vigilant posture at the "food" on the ground.

Fooled!

Fang Nuo forcibly endured the feeling of nausea, and tears of reason flowed in his eyes.

He was about to throw up, he thought, is this really edible food?

Or is it that the human beings in front of us have unusual tastes?

What the hell is it?!

The snow-white beast trembled and stretched out its forepaws, pushing the "food" far away, so that the smell it emitted no longer penetrated into its nostrils.

"Forehead......" The human's expression was obviously a little embarrassed, he pinched the "food" and tilted his head in confusion, "Don't you like it?" ”

Who would love it?

Fang Nuo's eyes widened, he was still thinking about "respecting racial differences", but now he desperately made a wish in his heart: he wanted all the things he was not used to disappear.

Please, are some "differences" really not necessary?

However, this should not be considered an interracial difference.

He covered his nose with one hand and used his remaining three legs to move little by little towards the weaker smell.

This is a "difference in preferences between individuals", and his eyes on humans gradually become more complicated, mixed with a bit of "admiration" - admiration for the other party's ability to adapt to such a strange "food".

After all, they are carnivores.

Although they will not only eat the flesh and blood of the prey they catch, they will still gnaw on some plants on weekdays, especially when they are not feeling well.

This is not to absorb the nutrients or spiritual power of the plants and trees, nor to fill the stomach, but to help induce vomiting and expel the hairs and other dirt that have been licked into the stomach.

Sometimes, they will also take herbs to achieve some healing or temporary strength boost.

Look at this human being, what is it fed? It's definitely not meat, right?

It smells a little punchy and a little sour......

Most of his usual exposure to raw food, although he knew that humans had the habit of cooking food and cooking it, he never thought that "normal food" would have such a pungent smell.

"I didn't expect you to look so disgusted, Six-Six." The human scratched his head, a little embarrassed, "I'm sorry. ”

"It's 'pickled garlic.'"

He uttered a term that Fang Nuo didn't quite understand.

"In the past, the outdoor temperature was low in winter, and sometimes the mountains were covered by heavy snow, and it was difficult to replenish the materials in time, so people at that time would prepare such 'winter storage'."

"By 'pickling' vegetables, they can be stored for a long time in the winter and are not perishable." Instead of throwing the food that had rolled on the floor back into the leather bag, he put it in his pocket and stored it separately, "Actually, they were snacks that Erica had prepared for me." ”

"I still have a bag of sweet, since you can't get used to salty garlic, do you want to try the sweet one?"

Fang Nuo still maintained a ready-to-go stance.

Who cares about the sweet or salty, he is resisting the food itself!

"So......" The human cocked up a finger and scratched his cheek in embarrassment, "Do you want to eat sticky bean buns?" ”

He pulled out another bag from his backpack and picked out a yellowish, round object from it.

It didn't smell noticeable, and it wasn't disgusting like the garlic it had just done...... But when I got closer, I could still smell a sweet and greasy smell.

Fang Nuo took another step back away from the human.

This guy, how could he not have imagined? I don't like to eat human food at all!

I'm not hungry myself!

It is not uncommon for monsters living in the mountains to fail to catch prey for a day or two, and have to "fast".

In addition, they are Yellow Immortals who have been aiming for "immortal beasts" for generations and embarking on the path of cultivation, and when they are hungry, they can also replenish their energy by absorbing atmospheric spiritual power.

What's more, they are already prone to all kinds of messy things, and no yellow fairy will casually accept the kindness of "food" - this is related to the "education" they have received since childhood.

After all, in the Xuancai Mountains, the relationship between "kindness", "food" and "survival" is very close.

Fang Nuo watched as the human reluctantly placed the yellow object on the ground, then stood up and slowly retreated in the direction of the forest.

Hurry up, he urged inwardly.

Reluctantly, I wish you a safe journey, Fang Nuo thought again.

Step by step, he approached the "sticky bean bag" and arched it with his mouth.

Convinced that this would not be the smell he liked, he looked up and saw that the human had turned his back at some point, and his steps were gradually quickening.

Despite this, the other party still turned back in three steps, as if he wanted to confirm something.

After seeing the snow-white beast stick to the edge of the food he had left behind, a heartfelt smile appeared on the human's face.

He pulled a small piece of blue grass from his coat pocket and raised his hand to let it sway in the wind.

And looking at the past from Fang Nuo's perspective, in fact, he couldn't see the small "friendship token" at all.

He saw the human arm raised straight, maintaining such a strange posture, striding towards his unknown fate.

Fang Nuo shook his head, guessing that the other party might want to wave goodbye to him, but he was too nervous, so his arm didn't move.

Maybe...... I'm going to die soon.

Fang Nuo felt some annoyance in his heart, but he couldn't tell why.

They may not see each other again, he still holds this thought, but at the same time, he has some anticipation in his heart.

"Maybe" does not mean something that will happen.

Sighing softly, the snow-white beast stretched out its claws and pressed on the sticky bean bag, flattening and crushing the food that he didn't eat.

Then, with a somewhat helpless chuckle, he brought the hand that had stuck the filling to his mouth and cleaned it up carefully.
