Chapter 15: Deviations

Early the next morning.

As soon as it was dawn, Lin Xia tiptoed out of the cave.

Bai Yingying didn't open his eyes until he left.

Lin Xia thought that his movements were extremely light, but the first moment his body moved, Bai Yingying woke up.

Bai Yingying didn't want to deal with him, so she didn't move.

At this point, she turned her head to look at the place where the food was placed, and she could see at a glance that the food was there.

She kept a habit in the last days, and that was to keep in mind the quantity of food.

Lin Xia went out so early, but he didn't take food.

I guess I went to the earth cave to get the package, and I plan to eat it together when she wakes up.

Bai Yingying lay down and seriously recalled everything that had happened in the past two days. Or, it can be called a review.

Everything Lin Xia did was impeccable. Sincere love really made her feel a trace of warmth.

It is an object to be able to trust for the time being.

But that wasn't enough to impress her.

Bai Yingying has already experienced it.

Despicable humanity is only revealed in desperate situations.

And she needed to keep herself safe at that time and survive.

Even if it is unscrupulous.

That's human nature...

It didn't take long for Lin Xia to come back with the animal skin bag on his back.

After eating two fruits with Bai Yingying, she left in a hurry and went out hunting.

Bai Yingying is an idle person, with no food left in her hands, how can she sit still?

She didn't even sort out the package that Lin Xia carried, she directly picked up the empty animal skin bag, took the dagger and went out.

The forest is a bit quieter during the day than at night.

Bai Yingying carried the animal skin bag on her back and walked carefully in the forest.

She carefully identified the edible wild herbs.

She didn't know a few of them herself, but the original owner had memories of it.

However, because the original body is weak, there are only a handful of wild vegetables that can be recognized.

What's more, not all plants can be used as wild vegetables.

Many plants are not weakly toxic, some are poisonous in the whole plant, some are leaves, or rhizomes, sap, etc...

If you don't know each other, pick them at will, then you are looking for death.

The edible 'medicinal herbs' on the orc continent are all screened by orcs with their lives.

Bai Yingying didn't dare to be careless.

Moreover, the common vegetables before the crossing were all optimized and cultivated, and she didn't necessarily know the wild ones...

You can only identify it carefully, and then carefully verify it.

Because it is just spring, some wild vegetables have just sprouted, and it is even more difficult to distinguish, but Bai Yingying is stumped...

However, Bai Yingying has long been accustomed to surviving in the cracks, and the last thing she lacks is patience.

Even if it is difficult, she will not give up easily, and still carefully search.

The most important thing in the forest is plants, as long as she can find a small piece, she can eat it for a day.

Ground.

Bai Yingying's eyes lit up, and the dagger in her hand was thrown out.

Accurately pierced a green snake with a small arm, and fixed the nearly two-meter-long snake on the tree.

She didn't have time to sigh that her arm strength had dropped, but her head was not bad.

The green snake struggled a few times, and then broke free from the dagger.

The long snake body fell into the bushes and soon disappeared.

Bai Yingying was extremely frightened, she had just pierced seven inches!

Anyone with common sense should know that if a snake hits seven inches, it will die.

But the snake of this orc continent has even strengthened its weakness?

"No, the snake holds a grudge."

Moreover, she hadn't gone far yet, the cave was not far away, how could she leave such a big hidden danger?

Bai Yingying hurriedly stepped forward and pulled out the dagger, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes.

She didn't want to take the risk, but now it was better to take advantage of his illness to kill him.

The snake just now did not take the opportunity to attack itself, but fled, then it was probably at the end of its crossbow, and it was a good time to pursue.

Bai Yingying picked up a wooden stick on the ground at random to explore the way, and chased after the bloodstains.

Even at this moment, she did not let her guard down.

A brainless pursuit will only lead to an ambush by the enemy.

She used a wooden stick to find the direction of the bloodstains, and at the same time listened to the four directions.

Suddenly.

Bai Yingying caught a glimpse of green flashing from the upper right, and her body reflexively tilted her head to dodge.

The body was half-twisted, and the wooden stick held in his left hand subconsciously swept over.

The dagger in his right hand stabbed straight out.

'Poof'

The dagger went into the flesh, and the blood splattered.

Just one second.

At the moment of dodging, Bai Yingying launched a counterattack.

The wooden stick held the green snake's open mouth, and the dagger stabbed straight into the snake's head, killing him with a single blow.

The corpse of the green snake fell from the branches of the tree with a dull sound, and a faint bloody aura spread.

Bai Yingying looked around vigilantly to make sure that there was no 'yellow finch behind', so she gasped violently a few times.

I secretly slandered in my heart: This body is too uncomfortable to use, and I almost returned to the West. You have to practice!

This snake has a triangular head and a small neck.

100% poisonous snakes.

If you get bitten, I'm afraid you can only find a cool place to lie down... lest the corpse stink too quickly.

Bai Yingying secretly laughed at herself, and repeatedly poked the snake's head with a wooden stick in her hand.

After waiting for a while, I made sure that the nerve reaction of the snake head had disappeared and would not be suddenly attacked by the dead snake, so I went to examine the snake corpse.

She was very curious, why didn't she die after hitting seven inches?

After she examined the corpse, she realized that it was not the snake of the Orc Continent that was not fatal.

It's because the species on the Orc Continent are not the same as on Earth.

She judged the seven inches of the place, and there was a slight deviation, which caused it to not go straight to the heart.

This is Bai Yingying's lack of understanding of the beast. If you want to hunt in the future, you have to learn from Lin Xia.

Otherwise, a mistake in judgment is likely to lead to your own death.

Bai Yingying moved her sore arm, which was just too tight and overexerted, and she felt extremely tired.

In the future, you will not only learn to hunt, but also exercise.

She touched her lower abdomen and sighed, and when the two were carried out, she had to take care of the cubs in her womb.

Snakes don't have much blood and don't cause a strong smell of blood to attract powerful beasts, but you also need to be careful with nearby small animals.

Bai Yingying dragged a few handfuls of leaves, wiped the blood off the snake's body, and then dragged the snake's tail towards the cave.

Although I was in danger today, I didn't work in vain, and I will be able to eat meat in a while.

It's just that she doesn't have salt.

The trade in the Orc Continent is still in a state of bartering.

Salt is only coarse salt, which is a relatively scarce resource for them.

There is lake salt and sea salt.

But there is a great deal of distance between the Sunset Mountains and the salt-producing regions.

The road is long and dangerous.

The average orc is simply not up to the task of transporting.

Therefore, most of the merchants were birds and orcs, and they were able to fly, which was much more convenient.

However, the load is limited and the salt is heavy, resulting in a tight supply.

This is also the reason why orcs almost always eat raw meat, because the blood of beasts contains a certain amount of salt.

The salt purchased in exchange is very expensive, and it is used to marinate the meat for the winter.

Their rabbit-hunting tribe used the best beast skins to buy salt.

The Sunset Mountains, the last thing there is is a beast.

In the summer when food is plentiful, they hunt wild beasts, and they all skin them on the spot, and they don't even want meat. Summer is also a good time to tann hides.

In the impression of the original owner, the merchants would only come in the autumn.

By that time, the clansmen had accumulated a lot, and each family was holding a large stack of animal skins, which could only be exchanged for a jar of coarse salt...

The coarse salt that the Bai family exchanged was used up as early as the early winter when the meat was marinated.
