Carrick had good luck today.
His physical condition is good, and his age is considered to be in his prime, but he did not choose to go to the labor market to find a job, ah... He seems to have been there, and he was spotted by a gang of robbers, and it seems that he also served as a striker, but only once After the failed robbery, all the monsters in their team who participated in the robbery died, except for him.
That was a long, long time ago.
Later, he took advantage of this time to retire, and with the "knowledge" he had acquired in the robber gang, he continued to rob in Yefar.
He only looted in the bottom market of Yefaer, never in any extravagant area, he never even went to the extravagant area.
Carrick was cautious.
Don't rob where you shouldn't, then don't rob what you shouldn't.
This is the "rule" that a senior told him when he was still in the gang of robbers. However, the senior died after telling him this rule. During the robbery, he committed greed and was cautious all his life, and then robbed things that should not be robbed in places that should not be robbed.
Carrick has been really cautious ever since.
After grabbing things, he spends money peacefully. The main thing is food. He doesn't want to go hunting by himself. After an accident, he will be a little reflexively afraid when he leaves the neighborhood where he lives.
Call him a coward, but he was really scared after that robbery.
The outside world is horrible!
Carrick's sturdy body shivered when he thought of the only thing he encountered when he went out a long time ago.
He reflexively pulled back his cloak and looked at his arm, the skin on that arm was full of pits, as if it had been corroded by something...
There will always be pain here. When he thinks of what happened back then, his joints were shattered in that action. Although it has grown back, it is said that this kind of injury will be unbearable when it rains on a cloudy day. Fortunately, this is Ye Farr, the weather is dry, it never rains, and as long as he's here, he won't be so miserable.
Carrick froze for a moment, then touched the pendant on his neck again.
Then he didn't want to.
He began to check his gains for the day.
Today, he went to three markets in total, grabbed a piece of prey and two packages.
The prey is still fresh, just a little smaller. Stretching out his teeth, he tore a piece of skinned flesh from the dead beast, chewing and inspecting the other two packages.
He is very cautious. He never robs the local snakes in the market. After going back and forth in various markets for so long, he usually robs the weak and newcomers in the market, but he will not rush to a certain stall. As time goes on, this is the way to robbery.
Carrick opened the first package. He snatched this from a stall in a corner of the east market, and he snatched it without knowing what it was.
The package was fastened tightly, and it took a lot of effort for him to open it, but the moment he saw the contents, Carrick sneezed.
There are a lot of hay-like things in it, with a very pungent smell, and Carrick was just smoked by this smell.
Wiping the choked tears, Carrick carefully sniffed the smell again.
"It seems to be the legendary spice... right?"
As a monster who has only been outside once, although Carrick is not too young, he is still a monster with little knowledge.
But the only time he was out on a mission, he had eaten local barbecue, not just the dry Yefar barbecue with salt, but also poured wine on it, smeared honey, and finally sprinkled " spice", that flavor...
Gee! He still can't forget it.
Although it's not food or money, it's a good thing to be able to grab the spices.
With a whistle, Carrick put the package aside and opened the last...
Let's call it a package, right
Unlike any package Carrick has seen, this one is "sewn"! It's like a belt, with a bulging bulge in the middle, and there's obviously something in it, but Carrick studied it for a long time and didn't know how to open it!
In the end he cut it open with his claws.
Inside came out a…
What kind of monster is this
Carrick was dumbfounded.
Poor Carrick grew up in Yefar. He didn't play with any toys, let alone rag dolls, so he didn't have the concept of dolls in his mind at all. He had never seen a frog, and even if he did, he wouldn't recognize it —Well, the black egg doll is made from the doll that Jiu Jiu sewed for him back then, and the workmanship is very rough.
The monster from another world, the little quack made of black eggs, rolled on the dirty ground like that.
Carrick carefully observed this weird-looking thing, and after confirming that it was a dead thing, he grabbed it, pinched it for a long time, and finally cut the belly of the doll, revealing the cotton inside.
Hei Dan observed very carefully. The frog doll that Jiu Jiu sewed for him was broken once, and it was filled with white cotton. Hei Dan remembered it once he saw it, and copied it when he "made" a doll for his uncle. Nowadays, there is "cotton" in the stomach of "quack".
But Carrick also didn't know cotton, so after hesitating for a while, he grabbed a handful of cotton from the belly of the "monster" and took a sip.
"Bah!" He quickly spat out what he had just eaten.
It's inexplicably completely useless - Carrick's verdict as above.
Fortunately, he was chased all the way for this package!
He remembered where the package had come from. It was from two strange monsters in the third market. It was the first time he had seen these two monsters. They were carrying a strange car with goods on it. A lot, and then they put the money in a hidden compartment on the car.
Among them, the shorter monsters are obviously very powerful, and the tall monsters are not bad. They usually stay together, but occasionally separate when they go to the toilet.
"Stalking" and "observation" are the very important things Carrick learned in that robbery gang. He didn't learn much, just enough.
Then there is "wait".
After the powerful short monster went to the toilet, he immediately moved to the booth, and then decisively stretched out his hand—
When the other party dropped the stall and chased after him, he instinctively knew that he might have grabbed something he shouldn't have grabbed.
But the things in his hand are roughly divided into two, one is a bulging package, and the other is... a black little monster.
He knows this stuff.
This is a monster born from the convergence of demonic energy. It is almost no different from a monster. However, there is a certain chance that it can grow up, so it is barely called a monster.
In the darkest corners of Yefar, such little monsters occasionally grow. They have no sense of mind and are almost impossible to grow up. They are often eaten by other monsters not long after they are born. There are many small monsters in Yefaer, and it is not against the law to eat such small monsters if they cannot catch food.
He also ate a few when he was a child, and it was very hard to eat. After he was able to catch better prey, he would never eat it again.
However, this little monster is still a good food for Yefaer's young monsters, so even if it is difficult to eat, this kind of monster will be caught as soon as it appears, and it is difficult to meet.
Between the two things, Carrick chose to throw away the little monster.
This is a test and a trade-off.
The other party has been chasing him closely. It is obvious that he has robbed a very important thing. He doesn't know which of the two things is the reason for the other party's pursuit. In this case, Carrick threw the little monster away. .
Throw away one, and if the other party is satisfied, he can keep the remaining larger package;
If the other party is not satisfied and continues to chase, he will throw away the rest of the package.
Fortunately, the other party did not continue to chase.
Maybe that little monster is the reason for the other party's relentless pursuit, or maybe the other party is satisfied that some of the lost things can be recovered.
Anyway, Carrick ran off with the rest of the package.
Although it now proves that the package he brought back is useless.
"How can it be possible to do business without losing money at all? Not to mention that there is no business." Muttering in his mouth what his senior told him, Carrick raised the fire and started roasting meat.
The source of the meat was naturally the prey he had robbed, and his cave had salt and now spices.
When it was almost roasted, Carrick stretched out his claws and crushed the hay in the small parcel next to him. The tangy aroma instantly filled the entire cave, and then floated into the garbage dump outside.
The ugly frog toy lay on the ground with its cotton-tipped white belly over, and Carrick devoured the spiced barbecue.
The taste of the barbecue is very fragrant, a bit like the taste of the year.
When he was almost done eating, Carrick walked out of the cave with the skeleton of his prey.
There is still some meat on the skeleton, I don't know if he can't eat it or is disdainful to eat it.
It was already dark outside, the purple moon hung in the sky like a natural light bulb, and the stench from the garbage dump made Carrick's seven-percent full stomach suddenly full.
Looking around at the garbage dump outside, Carrick threw the skeleton out, and then he turned back to his lair.
After he left, countless shadows suddenly jumped out from every corner of the garbage heap.
It was a group of juvenile monsters living near Carrick.
They have been attracted by the smell of Carrick's barbecue for a long time, and they have been waiting for Carrick's "leftovers" for a long time.
Unlike other monsters that eat bones, Carrick often has a few things left. Although they are all offal, it is just enough for these little monsters with poor hunting ability to eat something.
The skeleton, which smelled of minced meat and spices, was quickly eaten up by a group of juvenile monsters.
Listening to the sound outside, Carrick huddled in the cave, eyes half closed, and he was also ready to sleep.
He doesn't think about what to do tomorrow.
Everyday life is the same, just act by chance.
The smell of the spices still lingers in the cave. Carrick smelled that smell and suddenly remembered his senior again.
He couldn't remember his face.
However, the other party was the only monster who had given him food.
When he was young, when he was starving to death, the senior once threw a skeleton to himself.
Like the skeleton he just threw out.
Carrick's eyes were about to close.
Suddenly, a green smear appeared in his sight. When he opened his eyes, Carrick picked up the green smear.
But that doesn't stop him from liking green.
It grows in Yefar where there is no green, and many local monsters like green.
He remembered that he also snatched a green candy sold by a little monster.
The green candy wrapper he was still hiding in the ground of his cave, he buried it.
No, it wasn't a robbery either, he paid, he paid a bone coin.
Playing with the green headband, Carrick fell asleep again.
After he fell asleep, the pattern on the green headband suddenly swam, as if alive, and the pattern on the headband snaked upwards along Carrick's hand like a snake, until Carrick's whole body was completely covered. Covered by a spell-like pattern, Carrick suddenly woke up from his deep sleep!
Sweaty, he looked at the patterns all over his body in surprise. He wanted to try to break free, but it was useless! Not only is it useless, those patterns are actually denser!
His eyeballs almost burst out of their sockets, and in a panic, Carrick suddenly heard a voice.
"Cuck!"
A crisp "quack".
Then, he saw the strange thing lying on the ground sitting up at some point.
The belly was still open, but it sat up.
The hind paws and buttocks are sitting on the ground, and the two thin front paws are also supported on the ground.
"Cuck!"
It called again.
Then the hind paws kicked hard, and the beast jumped in the direction of Carrick.
The moment it jumped over, Carrick saw that the monster's suspected mouth suddenly opened a gap, and then the black hole-like mouth suddenly opened.
And then-
There is no Carrick in the cave.
He was swallowed.
The monster that swallowed Carrick suddenly grew in size.
"Crack!" it called twice, and then jumped out of Carrick's lair.
The heavy body jumped on the garbage heap, and it jumped all the way to the west. As the body kept jumping and falling, the size of the monster became smaller and smaller. When it finally became about the same size as before, he was already After crossing many paths, I turned to a very clean and secluded path.
The path that many people are very familiar with is the way Jihuan takes home every day.
It squeezed in through the crack of the iron gate, and it landed in the yard of Jihuan's house with a clatter.
Erroka glanced in the direction it fell, then turned her head back.
The monster continued to jump again, and its body passed through the door of the house, then went straight through the door of Jihuan's bedroom, and landed beside Jihuan's bed.
"Crack!" it called again.
"Quack." A tender voice came from the darkness, but it was the black egg sitting on the big bed.
Ji Huan fell asleep beside him, Heidan was sitting on the big bed alone, calling Gugua's name for a long time.
Until quack reappeared in front of him.
The little body was lying on the bed, and the black egg stretched out his hand to the quack under the bed.
Quack was grabbed obediently by him, and then spit out a green headband at him.
"Yeah~" Black Egg was very happy.
He patted Guagua's little head, and Heidan put Guagua in the usual position on the bed, then got back into the bed and hugged Chiuchiu's arm, and Heidan fell back to sleep.
