[019] Follow-up
Although the ability to make items smaller is a bit troublesome, in the end, all pots and pans are reduced by smaller gas for several turns, and then filled with a tip.
After all, this is already at this stage, Xiao and Sa's most convenient and magical abilities.
After packing up the things, the two chose one direction and left with neatness, and forgot all the previous experiences behind them. That was the memory that Xiao didn't want to recall, and So knew this.
A few hours after the two left, when night fell, many villagers came, holding torches, Ma Ming walked in front, and when he walked to the woods, he immediately pinched his nose with his hands.
"Die, all dead." A villager shouted in a little frightened.
Ma Ming stepped forward to check, then stood up and said, "Sure enough, these idiots will attack those two adventurers."
"It's good to die." A villager sneered.
These people were outsiders who joined the village decades ago. At first they joined relatives, but later they gradually became occupants of the magpie's nest. The number of people increased, forming a sophomore force in the village.
Even the village chief was bribed by these people and gradually favored these outsiders.
The villagers dared to be angry but dared not speak out, so they lived in peace on the surface and even gave in again and again. In fact, they kept waiting for the opportunity in secret until the appearance of Xiao and Sa. Ma Ming realized that this was a good opportunity at that time, so he quietly began to make arrangements with the villagers.
The village chief, Acheng, were all kept in the dark. They didn't know that Ma Ming had ever looked for Gou Er and told the other party that he had discovered that Xiao and So had a lot of money.
After Gou Er found out, he told Hua Gu and instigated these people to work together to kill people and seize money. The reason why this news did not reach the village chief and Acheng was entirely because the village chief and Acheng were not their own.
"Okay, since all these bastards are dead, I will continue to do my business next time. I will leave the village tomorrow." Ma Ming said to the villagers.
A villager refused to let go: "Ma Ming, don't worry about your mother being in the village alone?"
"Let's go back and deal with these people's children and wives. The village is very safe. I believe you." Ma Ming smiled with a squinted eyes.
The villagers immediately smiled embarrassedly, and everyone was a little afraid of Ma Ming.
The main reason is that Ma Ming usually pretends to be too good, like a scheming, sunny, and silly boy. If Ma Ming had not made a plan with his father's power a few years ago, they would probably not have believed that Ma Ming was actually a scheming man.
In fact, the reason why they were willing to listen to Ma Ming at the beginning was entirely because Ma Ming's father was very terrible and had a profound strength. It was because Ma Ming's father left after spending a while with Ma Ming's mother, so that they lost their biggest backing.
Ma Ming has been growing up listening to his father's story, so his greatest wish is to leave the village, go to the vast world to find his father, and gain the incredible power of his father.
But before that, he had to find a way to catch up with Xiao and So.
Because Xiao and So were the ones who had special abilities in his life, and his father only met in the story, whether it was manipulating the power of thunder or the magic weapon that would automatically return when thrown out, they were all limited to the story. He had never seen it himself, and he didn't know whether his mother had exaggerated it.
...
The forest in the dark night is very lively, but it also has a solemn atmosphere.
Under a tree, the fire light dispels the darkness. Owl and So sat on two rocks, looking at the iron plate above the bonfire. The pieces of meat on the iron plate were cut into thin slices, curling slightly in the high temperature, emitting an attractive oily light.
The owl held a brush, dipped in seasoning and gently brushed the flesh, while the wool looked at it with a gaze.
In the past, Xiao and So loved food very much. This originated from So's father, the fat chef, who had the pride of being a chef and often said, "Our family is a chef family that has been passed down for thousands of years."
Although Xiao did not become a chef in the end because of So's father's death, he had always had a great interest in cooking. However, in the past he could only explore by himself and occasionally make dark dishes. Now he has recipes that can systematically learn the combination of various ingredients.
If he used to cook just to fill his stomach, then now he is really enjoying the fun of cooking.
The combination of countless ingredients, different methods of handling different meats, toxic ingredients become non-toxic and even beneficial foods through different combinations, while non-toxic ingredients can become limited and highly toxic through different combinations.
It's like an art, and Xiao is completely immersed in it, and Sa is his best audience.
"Okay, you can eat it!" Xiao looked at the barbecue on the iron plate and said to So with a smile.
So could not wait. When he heard Xiao's words, it was like an athlete hearing the sound of a gunfire. She stabbed a piece of meat with a wooden stick, and then blew it into her mouth. A rich aroma of meat suddenly burst out in her mouth.
This taste is very special, like flowers blooming, and countless flavors compete for beauty.
"It's delicious!" So swallowed the meat and finally gave the answer.
Xiao smiled and said, "If you eat more if you taste good, we have a lot more."
The meat comes from a wild boar he just killed. He used the wild boar to conduct experiments and has confirmed that he can make the animal smaller, but after the animal becomes smaller, it will die suddenly and will not be resurrected even if it becomes larger again.
Xiao and So were both afraid, but fortunately they did not use each other for experiments, and the two decided that no matter what abilities they gained in the future, they would use animals to experiment first, and would never use them on humans first.
"Brother Xiao, will we go to Leiden City next?" So asked while eating meat.
Xiao cut the meat with a kitchen knife and replied while cutting the meat: "Of course we have to go. Although we don't lack kitchen utensils now, the seasonings are still much worse, and the eyes of mixed fish must be bought quickly, otherwise the eyeball fruits will be broken."
"Oh, then I'll buy some clothes then." So pierced a piece of meat and said as he looked at the meat.
Xiao was stunned and nodded, "Yes, you can buy a bathtub at that time, and you can take a bath even in the wild."
They had been on the road and didn't take a bath before. They took a hot bath in the village, but their clothes were not changed. They could smell an indescribable smell after taking a shower and putting on their clothes. However, they were used to it before, so they didn't think there was any problem.
Although Xiao felt that the clothes were smelly when wearing clothes, he quickly got used to them. So he kept this in mind. She originally planned to buy some clothes or cloth like villagers before leaving, but who knew that this happened again.
After So was full, Xiao began to barbecue meat for himself. After special treatment, these meats have the effect of enhancing blood and energy. Eating them regularly can break through the limits of the body and even develop secondary.
Xiao didn’t know if he would grow taller, but according to the recipe, eating this kind of barbecue regularly can increase height.
His goal is 1.8 meters. After all, his height is too short for adults now, only 1.53 meters.
The general height of this world is not high. Men generally have only 1.69 to 1.75 meters of adults, while nobles may grow to 1.8 meters. It can be said that 1.8 meters of nobles is one of the symbols of nobles.
Of course, the servants of nobles generally have height requirements, often around 1.75 meters. People who are too short are not worthy of being slaves to their noble masters.
However, there are actually not many ordinary people who are tall. For example, Donggu is talented and has an exaggerated height.
After eating the barbecue, Xiao marinated the remaining ingredients and sprayed them out to make all the kitchen utensils smaller. After putting them down, he looked at the sleeping So, and couldn't help but smile gently.
He turned around, picked up the stones on the ground, and began to practice his abilities.
This gas that can make objects smaller is called "small gas". At first, neither of them could control it well. They only sprayed randomly when they felt it, but they slowly began to adapt over time.
Xiao hopes that he can perfectly control this ability. After all, this ability not only provides him with convenience, but also has great lethality.
If he encounters a monster bear now, he can completely breathe at it and directly turn the monster bear into smaller.
So, he needs to exercise and master the gas to become smaller!
This is not particularly easy, and the total amount of gas that becomes smaller is limited. After spraying more than ten mouthfuls of gas that become smaller, he felt his stomach empty and he could not spray it out at all.
Fortunately, there is no storage capsule in his stomach, so the food will still be digested if it becomes smaller, and there will be no problem with the absorption of nutrients. Instead, it will provide convenience for him and the Sau, that is, they will urinate very few times, and they may only need to defecate once a month.
Of course, they cannot drink soup made of abdominal pain fruit before defecation, otherwise their fate will explode directly on the spot like Kunlun eel.
After the practice, Xiao turned around and looked at the sleeping So, and gradually became enlightened.
The fire swayed, and the firewood burned in the fire, making crisp sounds from time to time. He watched So subconsciously pick up a piece of wood and put it into the fire to burn, and his thoughts gradually floated over.
Time passes quickly.
The moon reaches the sky, dark clouds cover the moon, covering the white jade-colored moon tilting towards the west.
The owl gradually closed his eyes, half asleep and half awake, hazy, and only felt that the sway opposite the fire seemed to be glowing.
"roar!!!"
Suddenly, a roar came from a distance, and a terrifying roar shook the entire forest, and even the trees trembled.
Xiao and So opened their eyes wide at almost the same time. So got up from the stone, looked at Xiao and asked, "Brother Xiao?"
"It sounds like a weird bear," Xiao said immediately.
He stood up and observed, and no monster bear was found in his eyes or ears. The sound was obviously coming from a distance, and he was not sure whether the monster bear was the monster bear he met.
However, the monster bear is indeed famous for holding revenge. He sprinkled a handful of salt into the monster bear's eyes. It was not surprising that the monster bear followed the smell of the two of them.
