Shadow Code - C34
” “I think we’re pretty bastards, a girl was looking for food for you and me in such a cold weather, let’s be suspicious of her. Stop it, pockmarked!” I thought of my younger sister’s pure and mischievous eyes, her undisguised and natural aura, and her mysterious words that weren’t forced upon me. Should I be on guard against anyone who had a story? No, friends don’t have to go from knowing each other to knowing each other, just like parents and children. Maybe each of us won’t understand our parents until we’re old, but in our previous life, not only does it not mean we don’t trust them, on the contrary, it’s an innate instinct for every child to trust their parents. Therefore, not knowing a person didn’t necessarily affect the existence of family, friendship, and love.
” “Oh right, what can little sister hunt with her bare hands? I have a gun here, why don’t I take a stroll around? Why don’t you just wait here?” The pockmark stopped talking and pinched the cotton jacket until it was dry.
” That’s fine too, don’t go too far! After all, the rations are here, and it would be best to find some water source. We don’t have much water left, so we don’t have enough to cook! ”
They seem to have gained quite a lot, the pockmarks were actually carrying an old fat wild lamb leg, roasting it diligently over the fire, the meat of the mutton made a ‘zizz’ sound, and there was some I recognize beside the meat. It’s primrose grass, this stuff is very rich in juice, when it’s used for roasting wild food, it’s the best seasoning, the pockmarks actually got this, it’s very rare and remote, if you go to sell it in the city, it’s a rare thing.
” What’s in the pot, sister? ” I rubbed my eyes embarrassedly. Three people, I was the only one enjoying myself. I thought to myself that I would let the two of them have a good rest on night watch tonight.
” Guess? ”
” What can I guess? Little sister, do you dare to use this pot?
” Should I eat first? Seeing how scared you are, don’t worry, I threw a few ants into this pot. If they don’t run, I should be fine! After a while, don’t eat your tongue off. There are sheep’s faces, torn into pieces, mixed with a few small female fishes. The fishes have seeds in their stomachs, and there are also some mountain fungi, grey vegetables, and a lot of them! ”
” How could there be fish? Have you found the water source? ”
” Of course, it’s easy to find water. You just have to climb a tree and find a place where the surrounding trees are dense, which is usually near the water source. However, I only gathered weeds and caught a few small fishes. The little sister stuck out her tongue and mischievously handed the wooden stick to me. I took it and continued to stir the delicious food in the pot.
” “Yes, the freshness in Chinese characters is the combination of fish and sheep, so the freshest is fish stewing and sheep stewing!” I licked the end of the stick that was dipped in the pot. Just this lick alone was enough to make me hungry.
” “Come on, little sister, clean up that lamb leg and roast it as well!” The pockmark threw over a bloody item. The little sister quickly caught it and began to clean up.
His two legs had been chopped off when he came back, and his face had been torn apart by his little sister after she smashed the stone plate. His entire body had been thrown into a pile of bonfire.
The pockmarks rolled around as they found a thin piece of stone, and the top layer of meat they were roasting was handed to us to eat first. By the time I took the first bite of the meat, I had already chewed it into minced meat, but I couldn’t bear to swallow it. It was too damn delicious, I hadn’t eaten anything so tasty in such a long time, “Right, how about the soup in that pot, no spoons?”
“Use this!” The little sister kicked a few items over, which looked like grooved shaped stones that she picked up for serving as a bowl.
“Grill a bowl for me. If it’s delicious, then shut up and eat. Stop spouting nonsense and treat your friends better than you!” Ma Zi complained as he salivated.
“Let me first test if the stew is safe or not. What are you in such a hurry for!”
“Sheep’s body, if any of you haven’t eaten your fill, find some cooked meat to eat, don’t waste it, and bury the rest in the bonfire.” Sheep’s body, if any of you haven’t eaten your fill, find some cooked meat to eat, don’t waste it, and bury the rest in the bonfire. After saying that, the pockmarked person continued to burp a bunch of times. Just as he stopped burping, he started to snore.
” “Little sister, you should go to sleep too. I’ll pull out some thick and withered roots and fill them to the brim!” I got up.
He didn’t understand what was being said, but an old woman and two voices seemed to be conversing face to face. The other voice seemed to be that of a man.
