Chapter 108: A Gift from the Hilichurls

Afraid that Jiang Bai wouldn't know how to eat it, it touched its stomach, put the dry sunset fruit in its mouth, chewed it loudly a few times and swallowed it into its stomach.

Jiang Bai looked at the sunset fruit in his hand, and his mood was very complicated.

Obviously, in a place like the Snow Mountain, where the conditions are harsh, even the hilichurl tribe lives very hard, and they are reluctant to eat this sunset fruit themselves, and it becomes dry after being left for too long.

But it is such a precious fruit, but he is willing to take it out and entertain him as a human being.

And he actually thought about destroying this group of hilichurls if something happened!

His conscience throbbed!

He pulled out a smile, wiped it with his sleeve and took a bite, the dry taste was not good, but he still finished it very seriously.

“tomo~”

Seeing that it had eaten the fruit, the hilichurl was obviously very happy, and danced with his hands.

The so-called exchange of courtesies, the other party invited him to eat the fruit, Jiang Bai couldn't say nothing, he took out the sweet flowers, apples, and raspberries he picked before going up the snow mountain, and filled a tray with rock elements and handed it to it.

The hilichurl was visibly surprised, and happily held a plate to the old shaman of the tribe.

Seeing the food he took out, the hilichurls around him who were staring at him suddenly became much kinder.

Under the gaze of a group of hilichurls, Jiang Bai followed the little hilichurl to the two old shamans.

“olah~”

The two old shamans carefully looked at Jiang Bai's appearance, and then began to dance strangely with a strange scream.

Jiang Bai listened to it a few times and guessed that this word should be a relatively friendly word.

Although he didn't know why the two old hilichurl shamans had started dancing, he learned to tune it back.

“olah~”

“mosi mita~la-la-la~”

Under Jiang Bai's blank gaze, he became a guest of this hilichurl tribe, and these dozens of hilichurls began to dance around him.

Their dance was very neat, revealing a quaint pace, and from time to time it made strange tones, like some kind of sacrificial poem.

Jiang Bai found that it turned out that the hilichurls also had their own language, but their language was incomprehensible to humans.

These hilichurls are not low-level monsters either, they have their own consciousness, and the most basic intelligence, but they are ignorant and intellectually low because they have no history.

If they are given a certain amount of time to grow, they may evolve into an intelligent civilization similar to humans.

But what made Jiang Bai puzzle was why these hilichurls had good intentions towards him.

He didn't think he was a special person, after all, the previous hilichurl tribe didn't hesitate to do anything when they saw him, and he didn't have the traits that could make hilichurls friendly.

If you are not special, then you can only be special to this group.

He was going to stay in the group a little longer to see what was so special about them.

When they had finished dancing around him, he found an open space to set up a pot and began to cook the soup.

In this icy and snowy place, you just have to drink a bowl of hot soup to warm your stomach.

The little hilichurl who brought Jiang Bai over squatted next to him curiously, watching Jiang Bai make a fire and set up a pot.

"Is there any water?"

Looking at the little hilichurl next to him, Jiang Bai gestured with his hands and feet.

"Drink, gurgling water......"

He has boiled water in his water bladder, but he has to save some money when he goes out.

Jiang Bai gestured for a long time, and only then did this little hilichurl understand what he meant.

It led Jiang Bai to a corner of the cave.

This corner is covered with a thick layer of ice, the rocks are frozen, and the temperature is cooler than the rest of the cave.

Under the ice wall is a small ice pool, because it is flowing living water, the surface of the water is not frozen, and there is an ice Xiaoice sliding on the water, and everything it passes is covered with ice.

Seeing Jiang Bai coming, this Ice Slim immediately wanted to attack, but was hugged by the hilichurls and thrown out directly.

Iceshlime slammed into the ground with a snapping sound, and the expression on his face became aggrieved, and he jumped away and walked away.

The hilichurls pointed to the ice and danced with their hands.

"Thank you."

After saying a thank you they didn't understand, Jiang Bai filled half a pot of water from the pool, and then started cleaning the ingredients with water.

He took out a large turnip, peeled off the skin, and under his operation, one by one the radish fell down and fell into the pot, and he took out another piece of jerky, also cut it into small pieces and put it in the pot, and put some ginger pieces, salt and other seasonings.

Just as he was about to go back with the pot, the hilichurl pointed at him and then at the ice wall, and began to dance in front of the ice wall.

Jiang Bai's brain went down for a moment, and he looked at the ice wall that he hadn't paid much attention to.

This ice wall is quite thorough, there are few bubbles, and even people can clearly see the lines of the stone wall behind the ice.

It's just that there is a small inconspicuous pit in the ice wall, as if a large piece of ice was once connected to this ice wall, and this large ice block cracked one day and fell into the pool.

Jiang Bai looked at the water below, this water was flowing, and it looked like it should be connected to the underground river.

Only, what does this have to do with him?

There was a chill in his body, and he himself felt that the snow-capped mountains had a relationship with him.

Could it be that he said that he was once frozen in this ice wall, so the hilichurls here knew him, and one day the ice that had frozen him cracked and fell into the underground river, and he floated all the way down the river to Liyue?

Logically plausible, just without evidence.

Jiang Bai also refused to accept the fact that he was sealed in the ice wall and sacrificed by the hilichurls here.

This was just his bold speculation, and it was difficult to say how likely it was, and he couldn't communicate with these hilichurls, so naturally he couldn't ask.

He took the pot back to where he had lit the fire and began to cook the soup.

The flame smoked the bottom of the pot, and gradually the aroma came out of the pot, Jiang Bai stirred it with a spoon, and when the soup began to bubble, he tasted it lightly and added a little salt.

Smelling the scent, the stomach of the hilichurl sitting next to him gurgled with hunger.

"gurg guru~" The hilichurl touched his stomach and looked at the pot, salivating.

"I have to cook it again, don't worry, the radish needs to be soft and rotten to be delicious." Jiang Bai said, regardless of whether it understood it or not, and closed the lid of the pot.

The little hilichurl was apparently also very well-behaved, sitting on the side touching his belly and waiting for the food in the pot.

Jiang Bai curiously touched the hair on the top of its head, which was not soft, but a little prickly. The bag that had been stoned by him had faded and there was no trace in sight.

In terms of size, this hilichurl should still be in its infancy, and it is easy to distinguish even if it is mixed with the hilichurl crowd.

"You can't keep the hilichurls screaming, you were hit by my stone, I'll call you Xiaoshi!" Jiang Bai unilaterally named it without its consent at all.

Xiao Shi tilted his head slightly, his eyes were blocked by the mask, and he didn't know if he understood.
