Chapter 171
After placing the corpse of the wild dog, Liu Yuanxiang carefully placed the puppy next to it, and they instinctively came over.
It seems like I'm having a good meal, so there should be no problem?
Ning Ze put down the firewood and whispered: "Lord, just now, I looked around on the road and found that there were no edible wild fruits nearby. There were many pheasants, so I went to take some back."
"How do you fight the military advisor?" Liu Yuanxiang asked curiously.
"This is there!" Ning Ze took out an iron bow from the famous product carrying bar and shook it.
"Go quickly and go quickly, be careful!" Liu Yuanxiang stayed alone in the cave, actually quite scared. She was worried that any companions who had been killed by wild dogs and bears would appear and return to the cave.
Ning Ze took the iron bow to leave the cave and arrived at a nearby place where the flock of pheasants were found.
Because the ecological environment is very primitive, it has not been destroyed by humans, and there are few people nearby, and birds and beasts are everywhere.
This group of pheasants gathered near the bushes to feed, with at least thirty in number, which is very rare in modern society.
Ning Ze stopped at a safe distance to avoid scaring away the pheasants. After carefully searching for the target, he pulled the bow and took the arrow.
He aimed at several pheasants standing in a row and sticking together, holding his breath and pulling his bow to the extreme.
"Swoosh!" The arrow shot out with lightning speed and accurately shot a pheasant. It did not stop and directly penetrated the body of the pheasant. Before the other two pheasants standing side by side were alarmed, they shot it through at the same time.
"Crazy~" The pheasant flock was frightened and flew away immediately.
Ning Ze quickly stepped forward and saw three eagles with one arrow, and three pheasants were strung side by side on the arrow.
This is the benefit of increasing the value of high force, and even the use of bows and arrows is magical.
The pheasant is big, and three are enough to eat.
Ning Ze turned around and thought about what to do later.
After walking a few steps, I suddenly felt a brisk in front of me, and something was coming out of the dead leaves under my feet.
When I looked closely, it turned out to be a scorpion.
A flash of inspiration, he drew his sword and quickly cut off the poisonous hook on the scorpion's tail, bent down and grabbed it, and a smirk appeared on his face.
Back at the cave, Liu Yuanxiang was sitting by the fire and gently caressing the breast-fed puppy.
"Lord, you have a lot of harvest!" Ning Ze held the prey in his hand. Before he came back, he had already gone to the stream to pluck the feathers and wash them.
Liu Yuanxiang was overjoyed. She was so hungry that she was very happy to be able to have a full meal: "The military advisor has only been out for a while, and he has been fighting so many times?"
"I only used one arrow." Ning Ze smiled.
"Awesome!" Liu Yuanxiang stood up and couldn't wait to meet him, looking at the chicken he had processed in his hand, "Can the military advisor roast it?"
"Can you know a little!" Ning Ze used the peeled branches to put a few pheasants on the fire, carefully standing next to the fire, "Although there is no seasoning, it can be roasted at least. These two smaller ones are roasted, and then I will get some mud and pick some banana leaves to make beggar chicken."
"Beggar chicken? What is that?"
"I suddenly thought of the recipe taught by my mentor." Ning Ze replied, taking advantage of Liu Yuanxiang's attention to the ingredients, he quickly threw the scorpion he brought back with his right hand, and at the same time he pulled her into his arms with his left hand, shouting, "Let's be careful!"
Liu Yuanxiang was not careful and threw herself into Ning Ze's arms and hung it on him. She was so scared that she asked hurriedly: "What happened?!"
Ning Ze hugged her and quickly raised his foot to step on the scorpion's tail that fell: "A poisonous insect fell!"
Seeing Ning Ze stepping on his feet and constantly waving a pair of scorpions struggling with his forefoots, Liu Yuanxiang was very scared: "There are scorpions in the hole? It's too dangerous!"
"Don't worry, lord!" Ning Ze said, "With the officials here, even snakes, insects, rats and ants cannot approach you. You can ensure that you are fair and safe. The officials will carefully check the entire cave later to ensure that there are no snakes, insects, rats and ants remaining."
Hearing this, Liu Yuanxiang breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, there is a military advisor here, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do."
After finishing his words, he realized that he was so scared that he hugged Ning Ze's neck tightly, and almost hung it up. The two were very close, and the posture was extremely ambiguous.
A strange feeling surged into her heart, making her at a loss, and she quickly pushed Ning Ze away and quickly tidied up her appearance.
Seeing her posture, Ning Ze smiled and bent down to grab the scorpion, and threw it into the fire.
Although scorpions can eat, there is enough food at the moment, so there is no need to eat them. Besides, if you don’t destroy the corpse quickly, it would be a bad thing if Liu Yuanxiang saw the poisonous hook on the scorpion’s tail.
Liu Yuanxiang didn't notice Ning Ze's expression, but just noticed that the scorpion was thrown into the fire, so he felt a little relieved.
She felt something was wrong with her heartbeat very fast and her face was a little hot.
This feeling is similar to when I met my favorite woman when I was a child.
How could this be?
Ning Ze pretended that nothing had happened, so he pretended to be walking around the cave with a burning wooden stick, and came back and said to her: "My lord, you can rest assured. The lower official has checked carefully. There are no other poisonous insects in the cave."
"Oh!" Liu Yuanxiang had something to do and sat by the fire to think.
"Lord, please come back to get some banana leaves and soil to cook beggar chicken for you. Please wait!"
"good!"
Watching Ning Ze leave the cave, Liu Yuanxiang reached out and rubbed his temples gently, and whispered: The military advisor and I are sympathetic to brothers, and how could this palace like men? No, don’t think about it…”
Ning Ze quickly retrieved the banana leaves and some wet soil. He returned to the cave and wrapped the pheasant in the banana leaves, sealed it with the soil and turned it into a mud ball. Put it in the fire and buried it.
Liu Yuanxiang was very curious: "Military advisor, this method is so strange! Is the beggar chicken you mentioned delicious?"
"That's natural!" Ning Ze nodded, "Lord, please look forward to it."
Ning Ze carefully turned the two roasted chickens and concentrated on it.
Liu Yuanxiang looked at his serious appearance opposite, and his mind was a little messy. He shook his head and tried his best not to think about it. He just stared at Ning Ze's handsome face, and his face was a little hot. I don't know if it was because of the fire or something.
Ning Ze naturally knew Liu Yuanxiang's movements, and in fact, she could feel that she obviously liked her.
Otherwise, he would not have been jealous of Chu Meiren, nor would he have transferred Mi Yan to his side.
Every time she comes back from a war, she always greets her at the front of the team; every time she goes out of the battle, she is also sending her all the way outside the city.
Over the past year, she has visited her house a lot when she was in Huajun. She usually doesn't let Beauty Chu and Mi Yan have the opportunity to be alone with her. She often finds various excuses to call herself to the princess's mansion to talk.
She must have noticed it herself, but because she grew up as the King of Lingnan, she may be psychologically biased towards male thinking, and this sexual orientation is a bit confusing, and she must overcome this hurdle!
In fact, it is difficult to say, and it is easy to say.
It’s just that she needs to correctly recognize the fact that she is a woman and the correct understanding of her sexual orientation. Ning Ze is not a psychologist. All she can do is to stimulate Liu Yuanxiang through some unintentional behaviors, make her realize this and overcome this obstacle.
Just like in the scene just now, normal men just say thank you. However, no matter how much Liu Yuanxiang is in his mind, he is completely different. No matter how rough and nervous a person is, he will react in that situation.
Ning Ze knew that it was better to not completely reverse Liu Yuanxiang's fixed thinking in one night than to do nothing.
When cooking pheasants, the atmosphere between the two became a little different.
Liu Yuanxiang tried hard to put aside the thoughts in her mind, glanced at the dim sky outside the hole, and said softly: "Why haven't Xiaodie and the others come yet? Logically speaking, we should find this place at this time..."
"Will you not see my prompt?" Ning Ze pretended to be unaware, "or, they got the wrong direction."
"What should I do?" Liu Yuanxiang asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, lord! Although the mountains and forests are full of beasts, we are extremely safe here. With the officials here, we can protect the officials from being safe." Ning Ze said, "As for the others, a large group of people gathered, and the beasts dare not approach easily. Even if you look for the wrong direction, you will definitely understand. The officials will take the officials back to the previous mountain tomorrow morning and can be seen from a high point."
"Then we're going to spend the night in the cave?"
"It seems yes." Ning Ze nodded, "Lord, don't worry. The subordinates can create some precious brocade and silk to ensure that you can sleep comfortably."
Some specialties are also considered famous products and are quite expensive. Generally speaking, no one will be willing to put these precious products in the wilderness as a pawn, but Ning Ze doesn't care. The first task is to take good care of His Royal Highness the princess and get more favor to her.
Liu Yuanxiang is much more at ease.
The roasted chicken was finally cooked. Ning Ze made sure there was no problem after trying it. Then he handed it to Liu Yuanxiang: "Lord, although it is not as delicious as a famous chef, just make it first! We don't have oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, it's good to fill our stomachs."
"I was hungry when I was a child," Liu Yuanxiang took it and replied with a smile.
"It's a bit hot, be careful."
"Um!"
The two of them were eating roasted chicken face to face. Ning Ze smiled and said, "I'm bored, do you want to hear the story?"
Liu Yuanxiang felt that the atmosphere was too abnormal, and he nodded quickly when he heard this: "Okay! The military advisor is knowledgeable, and there must be many good stories, right?"
"Of course!" Ning Ze smiled, "When Xiaguan was studying abroad, he heard many interesting stories."
"Tell me quickly!" Liu Yuanxiang was very interested and couldn't wait to urge him while eating the roast chicken.
"Then the official will tell the lord the story of "Painted Skin"."
"Painted skin?" Liu Yuanxiang said curiously, "I have never heard of this story before. What is it?"
"Let me listen to the officials and say it slowly..." Ning Ze held his bad intentions and deliberately told her the most terrifying story in the Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio.
It's already night in this wilderness.
Is there a roar of unknown beasts? It is already terrible?
The ancients believed that ghost stories were nothing to Ning Ze, an atheist, but even more terrifying to them.
