The Matai people took the wolf carcass away without any distress.
They are not short of meat, and they have not been left for a long time, and the smell of blood is still strong. Wolf fur is a good thing, with thick hair, but it is not necessary in this weather, and the Matai people are not afraid of the cold, so they can just find a piece of animal skin to wear in winter.
Lu Yu watched them come and go, thoughtful.
Whether it is hunting or recuperating, he may be injured. His current medicine reserve is almost exhausted, and it is time to find a way to get some more.
Although both the rabbit and the big gray wolf we met tonight can drop red medicine, it is very cost-effective to hunt and kill them specially. The number of rabbits in a litter is small, and the meat is also small, so it is not worth it. Hunting big gray wolves will definitely get hurt, and then use up the red medicine that just dropped, and come and go again and again, it is worthless.
How to get a lot of red medicine at once? Lu Yu thought.
…
Overnight.
It was another sunny morning.
Lu Yu followed the Matai people to a small lake for a brief wash.
Since there were still many elephants left yesterday, there is no need to rush to find food today.
The Matai people plan to find the salt, stone, pepper, and wild pepper that Lu Yu said, and find more, so that everyone can eat delicious barbecue.
Lu Yu agreed, and went with them to the jungle not far behind the cave.
Their formation was that Lu Yu stood in the middle, there were people in front, back, left, and right, Tai Lie on the left, and Xia Cao who followed on the right.
When they came out, Lu Yu told Xia Cao to stand in the middle. He felt that Xia Cao was a woman after all, and she deserved more protection.
But Xia Cao smiled, with a gentle face but a firm tone, "It's okay, Wu, if there is danger, I will avoid it."
Lu Yu nodded helplessly. I want to say that the jungle behind the cave has been inspected by the Matai people anyway, so there shouldn't be as many wild beasts as there were wolves last night that couldn't handle it.
I don't know if it's Lu Yu's crow's mouth, or Murphy's law. After a while, Tai Lie yelled to stop.
Lu Yu was a little nervous, "What's wrong?"
Tai Lie said lightly, "There are beasts."
Lu Yu was startled, "What kind of beast? Are there many? Do you want to run away?"
Xia Cao smiled, "Don't worry, it's just a brown fox."
Lu Yu:
Xia Cao stretched out her hand, "Witch, look, there—"
Lu Yu looked along her fingertips.
… I may be blind.
He didn't see anything.
After staring hard for a long time, I seemed to see the grass trembling a hundred meters away.
A long-tailed fox with brown fur suddenly jumped out, and ran away like lightning.
Lu Yu was startled: "It ran away! So fast!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a slender wooden stick flew out of his right ear like lightning, and flew towards the brown fox with incomparable precision, passed through the fox's body, and firmly stuck it in place.
Lu Yu:? ?
shoot with great precision
"Shan Pu, go and pick it up." Xia Cao shouted to the front, then turned her head and said softly to Lu Yu, "Witch, I peeled off this fox fur and gave it to you for winter use."
Lu Yu looked at her empty right hand, which was holding a wooden stick just now, "...OK."
What kind of illusion did he have just now, that Matai women need protection more than him.
In their eyes, he is probably a weakling who can fall down at the first blow-□□…
Walked for a while without any gain.
Shan Pu, who was walking in front, suddenly had his eyes bright, and ran out like a gust of wind, squatted down to pick something, and ran back quickly.
"Wu, do you think this is wild pepper?!" He showed Lu Yu a small red fruit.
Lu Yu shook his head, "No." It was a small wild tomato.
"Ah..." Shan Pu was disappointed and wanted to throw away the things in his hand, but Lu Yu stopped him and took the tomato.
In addition to looking for condiments, it is also necessary to bring some vegetables back.
The Matai people only love to eat meat, no matter how sweet the fruit is, they are only willing to eat a little when they can't catch prey. If this continues, there will definitely be a lack of vitamins, leading to low immunity. At that time, various diseases will emerge, and it will be too late to regret.
Lu Yu put the tomatoes into the ring, and said seriously: "This is also edible. You pick more—"
and many more.
Lu Yu paused, and suddenly remembered that the Matai people are not ordinary people. They have strong genes, extraordinary talents, no natural disasters, and living a thousand years is considered an untimely death. His physique is stronger than that of wild beasts, and he can live longer than bastards. He has been struggling for a hundred years, but he actually thinks that people eat less vegetables, which is not good for his health...
What the hell is he worrying about? Worrying about himself.
…
Lu Yu said weakly, "Forget it, you can just pick some."
"Okay!" Shan Pu went with great enthusiasm.
The jungle got deeper and deeper, and the vegetation began to grow thicker.
It wasn't until Lu Yu was a little hungry after leaving that they finally found a place where pepper trees were scattered here and there.
Everyone spread out to collect the small red fruits hidden behind the green leaves.
Lu Yu took off a handful of wild pepper, looked at Shanpu jumping cheerfully not far away, and paused, "Shanpu, come here."
"What's wrong? Wu..." Shan Pu came over and squatted beside Lu Yu, still holding a handful of wild pepper.
Lu Yu took the pepper in his hand and put it into the ring, "I want to ask you something."
"what?"
"Last night, when the wolf came, were you at the entrance of the cave?"
"yes."
Lu Yu frowned slightly, and asked hesitantly, "Then, have you seen a special wolf..."
In front of the short pepper tree, two people, one black and one white, with contrasting colors, squatted together with their heads together, and they didn't know what they were muttering, because they were too close, and their arms rubbed against each other from time to time. It seemed unusually intimate.
Tai Lie looked over there silently,
Xia Cao glanced at her own king, then looked at the two people in front of the pepper tree, and said with a smile as if unintentionally, "Wu seems to be very happy talking with Shan Pu."
Tai Lie pursed his thin lips slightly, his eyes darkened.
…
"Ah? Wu, you want to hunt and kill the wolf king?" Shan Pu said loudly in surprise.
The Matai people who were collecting wild pepper put down their work and looked over in confusion.
Lu Yu found that everyone was watching, so he stood up and said loudly, "Yes."
The Matai whispered to each other.
"What? The witch is going to kill the wolf king? Why?"
"I don't know, but the wolf king is a bit difficult to hunt and kill."
"Yes, the wolf king is faster than Shan Puke."
"Also, there are many wolves in the territory of the Wolf King."
"Is it delicious to roast wolf meat?"
…
Tai Lie walked up to him, looked down at him, and asked in a deep voice, "Why?"
Lu Yu laughed, "I was going to tell Wang about it."
"I can get what we need most from the wolf king."
