If it was Zhang Yao in the past, he would definitely choose to return to the battlefield without hesitation, because that is the normal story flow, as for what is the life-saving grace?

'I'm going to save the world, is it important for you to talk to me about such a small thing, to save the world?' ’

I guess I guess I want to say that.

But now...... He was afraid, he was afraid to go back to the battlefield where the monster existed, he was afraid to encounter the monster again.

Despicable or cowardly, he had only one choice.

"No, it doesn't matter if I don't have it over there. ”

Lies, lies, it's not that it's okay without him, but even if there is him, there will be no improvement.

"And you saved me, if I just let you go in trouble, my conscience is disturbed. ”

Lies, excuses, are just weak words to cover up one's ugliness and weakness, no matter how important things are, as long as they can be used as excuses.

"Yes. ”

Lilia Marie looked into Zhang Yao's eyes and smiled softly.

"That's a big help, we can't even open the pot. ”

Not daring to look directly at those warm eyes, Zhang Yao pretended to be angry and lowered his head to avoid those eyes.

"Ahh ”

Zhien replied vaguely that he would not be able to bear the shame if he continued to lie.

There was a warm and soft touch on his head, which made Zhang Yao's hand shake and almost be burned by the flames, and the warm palm rubbed it on his head like this.

"If you're tired, rest here, if you're injured, recuperate here, it's okay, no one will blame you. ”

The warmth slowly seeped down from his head, and little by little it became scorching, so that he couldn't help but shed tears.

"When you get back on your feet and do what you're supposed to do, I'll cheer you on. ”

There was always a feeling that Lilia Marie had seen through her heart, but Zhang Yao didn't hate this feeling.

"Hmm. ”

By the time the two of them returned to the village while chatting and chatting along the way in search of wild fruits and wild fowl, it was already close to noon.

The people of the village were worried that Lilia Marie would dare to take a stranger into the wilderness alone, and it was not until the two returned to the village with a pheasant and a rabbit that they had been carrying with them.

After Lilia Marie told everyone about Zhang Yao's intentions, most of them did not take a stand, while the old doctor and a few rough men objected, and it took a lot of effort for Lilia Marie to convince them.

After that, it's time for lunch, because there are no extra pots, and lunch is a wild vegetable soup stewed in a large pot, served with brown bread that has been sitting for an unknown amount of time.

Zhang Yao had never eaten such unpalatable bread, even after soaking it in soup, it was still difficult to swallow, and the rough bread was mixed with a large amount of wheat husk and even some sand. And the taste was so bad that Zhang Yao once wondered if this was really food? Wasn't it some kind of secret weapon with excellent camouflage?

I wanted to put the pheasant and rabbit in the pot together, but I was taught by the peasant woman who rushed out of the side, and the speed was dwarfed by the knight's charge. For peasant women, these precious meats were to be dried and carefully preserved as rations for later years.

Zhang Yao didn't understand why he was spoiling these mountain treasures like this, but he only showed a slightly dissatisfied expression, and was taught a more severe lesson by the peasant woman.

After the lesson, the peasant woman took it upon herself to serve Zhang Yao a large bowl of soup, and added more black bread to the ground, as if she thought that Zhang Yao was worried about the game because she was not full.

Zhang Yao, who had received more food, was rightfully glared at by the young people, while Lilia Marie gloated the whole time, with no intention of helping at all.

Sighing and soaking the black bread into the soup, Zhang Yao secretly made up his mind that he must start hunting activities as soon as possible, otherwise he would definitely have a stomach trouble if he ate black bread for a few more days.

After lunch, the crowd dispersed, with the women staying at home doing the chores and taking care of the bears and children who could catch birds and fish in the water, while the men scattered to collect the food and firewood needed for the day, and the water needed to be refilled before sunset.

For a moment the whole village fell silent.

was accustomed to the hustle and bustle of lunch, but the sudden silence made Zhang Yao a little unaccustomed.

It wasn't long before Lilia Marie came over with two young men, one tall and one short.

"This is Pompeii ....... ”

Lilia Marie pointed to the tall, lanky youth.

“...... This is Terry. ”

Then he pointed to the stocky young man.

"The two of them are the ones who are willing to hunt with you. ”

To be honest, Zhang Yao originally thought that there would be more people coming, after all, it was about the most important food. But after thinking about it, I realized that I probably didn't trust myself, a stranger who suddenly appeared, and I am afraid that even these two young people reluctantly agreed because of Lilia Marie's request.

It is not easy to gain the approval of others, but Zhang Yao is not worried, and after thanking Lilia Marie and the two young men, Zhang Yao takes the two young people to set off for the first hunt.

When the backs of the three disappeared into the shadows of the trees, the old doctor came over.

"Do you really believe him?"

The old doctor understands Zhang Yao's specialness better than anyone else, so he is also the person who disbelieves in Zhang Yao the most, the older man does not make him smarter than the young man, but he has more insight and experience, and he understands class relations better than young people, which no one can escape.

"I'm afraid he's an important figure in the Papal Army, and it's too suspicious for such a figure to stay in a small village like ours, where there is nothing. ”

Lilia Marie never took the old doctor's words lightly, but she had her own ideas.

"Everybody has times when they want to run away, wouldn't it be pitiful to have a place to accept themselves at this time......? It's a joy to be his safe haven. ”

Lilia Marie is well aware of this feeling, and because she knows it, she does not despise the weakness of the human heart.

"And I don't think we have any value to be remembered. ”

The old doctor was silent for a moment.

"You're sometimes very poisonous. ”

Zhang Yao's first hunt was very successful, and the first time he encountered a fat wild boar, he put down the wild boar when the two young men were so frightened that they were about to pee their pants.

After this time, Zhang Yao understood that he was completely different from a normal hunter, because he had no skills, he was not good at catching prey that required skill such as rabbits and pheasants. Because it has a strength that normal people can't match, it can easily take down fierce but inflexible prey.

After this hunt, the two young men were completely impressed by him, and even began to call him big brother.

Although he is used to being flattered, he will hate it, at least Zhang Yao enjoys this kind of treatment.
