The slabs were erected, and the flames burned brightly below, and the midday sun shone on them, and soon a puff of heat was steaming.

Lu Xi cut the meat into sliced shapes, and spread the several wild vegetables found during this time that could be used as seasonings, or spread them on the meat slices first or later.

Under the double heating of flame and sunlight, the meat slices quickly sizzle, exuding the aroma of barbecue, the golden fat overflows from the barbecue, shining in the sun, and several wild vegetables as a seasoning, in the frying of the fat, the latter exudes a more stimulating aroma to the taste buds.

Lu Xi turned around and took out the tools, ready to take out the roasted meat, turned his face and saw Xiao Yuan beside him, his body was still sitting upright, saliva had already flowed down the corners of his mouth, and a small puddle was dripping on the ground, and he couldn't help but smile on his face, and handed the first piece of roasted meat to Xiao Yuan.

The size of the slate is not too large, and it is lucky to be able to find the right stone, and the size cannot be forced.

In addition, the sharpness of the stone knife is not enough, and the slices of meat cut out are the size of the palm of the hand, and it is no problem to say that it is a piece of meat, so it can only be grilled three or four slices at a time.

Lu Xi doesn't have a big appetite, although he has a lot of physical exertion, he is almost full after eating two or three slices of barbecue, and the rest is roasted to feed Xiaoyuan, which is rare and leisurely.

Xiao Yuan wagged his tail and ate very happily, it looked very bluffing on its face, and it looked reserved and elegant, like a lady among wolves, but in fact, the tail behind it exposed everything.

While eating, Xiao Yuan's ears suddenly moved sensitively, and he quickly turned towards the direction they came, Lu Xi was stunned for a moment, and then immediately realized that it was not good, the last time Xiao Yuan behaved like this, it was when they met that large creature like a lion.

Without hesitation, Lu Xi immediately stood up, picked up his luggage in three or two clicks, and ran towards the route he had already chosen, fastening his luggage to his body as he ran, so as not to affect his actions.

Xiao Yuan also immediately threw down the half-eaten barbecue in his mouth, picked up the three round rabbits that Lu Xi had not taken away on the ground, and tied them into a ball with grass leaves, followed Lu Xi's footsteps, and quickly overtook Lu Xi and led Lu Xi in front.

The slate and the half-roasted barbecue on it were not cleaned up and left in place, half because the time was tight and it was too late to clean up, and the other half was also because I hoped that the smell of the barbecue on the slate could attract the chasing creature and help Lu Xi buy a little more time to leave.

Lu Xi originally thought that he would be able to leave the grassland immediately, and the traces of various creatures around him had decreased, especially the traces of large creatures, almost none, so he started to make slate barbecue with confidence, but he didn't expect that the aroma of food still attracted predators on the grassland.

It's just that no matter how annoyed he is, he can't change the status quo, so Lu Xi can only bury his head in the direction of the forest first, and strive to run a longer distance.

"Roar!" A slightly familiar roar came from where Lu Xi had left.

Lu Xi subconsciously glanced back, and from a long distance, she saw a somewhat familiar figure - wasn't this the lion that robbed her and Xiaoyuan of food last time?!

Not attracted by the scent, but always chasing after them?

An idea quickly popped into Lu Xi's mind, after all, there was no more reasonable reason to explain the lion's behavior.

Is her grilled meat really that appealing? After chasing for three or four days, you still don't give up?!

But before she had time to think too much, Lu Xi quickly retracted her gaze and continued to run in the direction of the forest, to her relief, the lion was indeed attracted by the barbecue she left behind, and stopped for a long time, giving her a chance to run away.

It's just that the lion's speed is much faster than Lu Xi, so that Lu Xi doesn't dare to stop because of the distance that has been pulled away for a while, for fear of being caught up again.

Regardless of the physical exertion, as soon as the night was about to fall, Lu Xi arrived beyond the dark forest.

In the darkening sky, the dark forest is like the open mouth of a giant beast, waiting to devour everyone who comes close.

Lu Xi looked at the forest in front of her, her heart was full of uneasiness about the unknown, but she didn't dare to stop there, the danger of the forest was still in the dark, and the threat of the lion was already close at hand.

Gritting his teeth, he rushed in with Xiao Yuan.

Forests with no traces of human life are more difficult to move than grasslands, and there are more and more dangers lurking in the shadows.

Night fell after Lu Xi entered the forest, and the dense canopy of trees blocked the last light, and Lu Xi, who was used to moonlight at night, became a "blind man" in an instant.

If it weren't for the darkness and the fluorescent game panel in her view, she would have wondered if she was really blind.

It's just that this game panel doesn't know what the principle is, and it looks like it is shining, but it can't illuminate any place in front of Lu Xi's eyes.

Stretching out his fingers, the surrounding environment is extremely complicated, and Lu Xi's footsteps can't help but stay here.

"Huh?" Xiao Yuan sensed something, and it had been driving the way ahead, stopped, turned around and walked to Lu Xi's side, rubbed her legs, put down the few prey in its mouth, and said with questions.

"Xiaoyuan, it's so dark here, I can't see anything." Lu Xi hesitated, the darkness aggravated her fear of the forest, making her afraid to take a step.

But Lu Xi also knew that she shouldn't stop here, and after stabilizing her mind, she spoke in a firm tone.

"Xiaoyuan, I'll give you a rope later, you bite it and take me away."

Although there is a cheat device called a novice guide, so that Lu Xi will not be unable to distinguish the direction of progress, but in addition to the direction, the novice guide will not remind Lu Xi that there are a few trees and stones in front of her, and she still has to rely on Xiaoyuan to guide her way.

"Whew," Xiao Yuan responded.

Tie the few prey that Xiao Yuan put down to her back - this will make Lu Xi no longer in a hurry, even if she is in a hurry, there is no way, so she doesn't have to continue to let Xiao Yuan share the weight of the prey for her, just carry it on her back and walk slowly.

Hand a sturdy rope made of several strips of cloth to Xiao Yuan, who held it in his mouth and led Lu Xi to walk in the forest, and Lu Xi slowly followed the strength of the rope in the dark.

More than half an hour later, Lu Xi couldn't help but be glad that she had made the right decision, at the edge of the forest, in the direction where she came, a huge roar of anger could be heard, it was the lion who was chasing them relentlessly.

Perhaps it was the forest that was not friendly to its sheer size, perhaps it was the danger in the darkness that made it flinch, or perhaps it was wary of the unknown in the forest, and finally the lion stayed outside the forest, letting out only a few impotent roars.

Lu Xi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, to be honest, because she couldn't see, she actually didn't go too far, otherwise she wouldn't have heard the roar of the lion outside the forest, once the lion chose to enter the forest, she would definitely be overtaken, and she couldn't see things, and she didn't even know which direction to run away.

After confirming that the lion would not enter the forest, Lu Xi did not plan to continue walking, after all, even the lion did not dare to come in, and there was no danger in the forest, although she had not encountered anything yet.

Gently tugging at the rope in his hand, Lu Xi called Xiao Yuan softly, "Xiao Yuan, don't go, let's find a place to rest first." ”

Xiao Yuan stopped obediently, because he was biting the rope in his mouth, so he just made a few uh-huh sounds with his nose in response.

As the time in the dark became longer, Lu Xi's eyes slowly began to adapt to the darkness, and she could vaguely see the edges of some blurred objects in the near distance, even if Xiao Yuan left for a while, she would not hit the tree headlong.

After not leaving for too long, Xiao Yuan found a suitable place to rest, and after such a long time, it has been able to distinguish very well what requirements Lu Xi has for choosing a place to rest - dryness is a must, followed by a certain amount of shelter, it is best not to have snakes, insects, rats and ants and other small creatures around, and if there is, it must be cleaned up.

It was a tree that had dried up for some unknown reason, and over time, the body of the tree had tilted and placed itself on top of another tree, forming a natural space.

Maybe the fallen trunk blocked the sun too tightly, and there were no plants growing underneath, just a layer of fallen leaves.

Xiao Yuan dug out a clean ground with his claws, pulled out two arm-long small snakes from the fallen leaves, and threw them away from a distance.

After checking around twice more, there were no other creatures, which was good news.

The ground without the cover of fallen leaves is very damp, but fortunately, Lu Xi finished weaving a whole straw mat before Lu Xi, spread the straw mat, and then spread a layer of rabbit fur blanket to block the dampness of the ground.

The original skirt cloth has been changed by Lu Xi into two sheets, as well as some other cloth bags and other miscellaneous items, folding the sheets and covering the body, plus a small edge with its own body temperature, it is enough to keep warm in the cold night.

The semi-enclosed space built by the two trees gave Lu Xi a rare sense of security in his heart, and he fell asleep.

Wake up to the sky.

In fact, it was only half past four in the morning, and the forest had just had some light, but Lu Xi didn't dare to continue sleeping, she was afraid that the lion would chase after the forest after dawn.

So he hurriedly packed his things and continued to hurry in the forest with Xiaoyuan.

The danger in the forest was unknown, Lu Xi did not dare to go deeper, and crossed the entire forest to the other end, so he decided to make a little detour and go around the edge of the forest.

Just to guard against the huge lion that might chase at any time, Lu Xi didn't dare to get too close to the edge of the forest, keeping a distance not deep or far, and there was a way to retreat before and after.

Focused on hurrying, the morning passed unconsciously, and his stomach made a gurgling sound at the right time, reminding Lu Xi to stop and rest.

Lu Xi looked back behind her, she wasn't sure how far she had walked, and she wasn't sure if she could get rid of the lion this way, but rest was necessary.

When he put down his luggage, Lu Xi found that he had been cut a lot of wounds on his body, and he couldn't help sighing, sure enough, everything has a price.

However, although the body is refreshed every day and cannot form skin protection such as cocoons, Lu Xi's mental tolerance for pain has increased a lot.

After all, mental states don't refresh every day.

After treating the wound a little, Lu Xi began to prepare lunch, with the fire left before, it is much easier to regenerate the fire, and the most important thing in the forest is firewood, and it is not much time to raise the fire.

Just be careful around the fire and there can be no flammable objects so as not to cause a forest fire.

Worried that if the meat was roasted like before, the aroma would attract any more creatures, Lu Xi simply didn't put any seasoning this time, just inserted the meat pieces of rabbit meat with a wooden stick and roasted the rabbit meat on the fire.

If it weren't for the fact that Lu Xi couldn't eat raw meat, she wouldn't even want to make a fire.

Lu Xi, who realized that the barbecue would not taste good this time, did not forget to ask Xiao Yuan, "I won't put those things in seasoning this time, it may not be delicious, do you eat grilled or raw?" ”

As a wolf of unknown breeds, it is in its nature to eat raw meat, but after tasting the barbecue made by Lu Xi, Xiao Yuan completely defected to the barbecue camp, even if Lu Xi said "It may not be delicious", he still firmly chose the barbecue with his eyes.

Lu Xi, who was always worried about whether the lion behind her would chase her, was not very attentive to the barbecue, but when she came back to her senses, she found that the barbecue was very good, and there was no undercooked or baked paste, which made her very happy.

In addition to the faint smell of meat, the barbecue without seasonings did not emit any other flavor, and it was not even as big as the smell of burning firewood, which made Lu Xi breathe a sigh of relief.

What made her most relaxed was that there was no movement behind her.

After cooling the barbecue for a while, and when it was no longer hot, Lu Xi took a bite, and then was slightly surprised, not unpalatable, but unexpectedly delicious......

When he hunted these round rabbits, Lu Xi peeled the skin and bleed, leaving only the meat and carrying it in the blades of mustard grass.

After a night, the outermost layer of rabbit meat inevitably dried up a lot, so that when the meat was grilled, all the fat was locked in the meat without overflowing, and it was perfectly integrated into the rabbit meat.

Of course, pure barbecue meat does not have much taste, but Lu Xi wraps rabbit meat with mustard grass blades, and the mustard grass itself has a lot of juice, and when moving back and forth, the rabbit meat inevitably infiltrates some mustard grass juice, which is the most suitable seasoning.

A little wild vegetable is bitter, no more, no less, just right.

Xiao Yuan was already feasting, Lu Xi had some doubts in his heart, but he couldn't find anyone to answer his questions, so he could only attribute it to the round rabbit first...... Maybe people are born so delicious, so it's delicious to cook.

Lu Xi re-kept the fire, extinguished the fire, checked it several times, and confirmed that it would not recur, then picked up his luggage and prepared to continue his journey.

The plants in the forest are much richer than those on the grassland, and even if Lu Xi is in a hurry, he has seen many plants that look like the earth along the way.

Most of them are inedible, whether they are in another world or on earth, until Lu Xi sees a bush of mushrooms growing under the roots of a certain tree, and then he stops.

There are many types of mushrooms on the earth, but they are often poisonous, either they are naturally poisonous, or they are poisoned when they are not cooked, except for a few species, they are extremely dangerous to eat.

But the taste of mushrooms is really good, otherwise it would not make countless people fight for poisoning and have to eat a bite.

Lu Xi is not the kind of person who particularly likes to eat mushrooms, but after being in another world for so long, the recipe is only a few wild vegetables that are extremely unpalatable, and rabbit meat, which is delicious but single, and he can't help but miss the taste of mushrooms.

Mushroom soup, grilled mushrooms, fried mushrooms, stir-fried mushrooms...... Just thinking about it, drooling is going to flow.
