As a fake half-demon, Yue Jiuling feels that living in the human realm is actually pretty good. However, this is only true if she can retrieve her original body and separated soul. There's no c...
Because the unidentified object that attacked them was covered in black hair and its appearance was completely obscured, and its body shape was somewhat human-like, Yue Jiuxing assumed that this guy was a savage. But why would a savage attack them?
"I don't know."
After Yue Jiuyue kicked the strange thing over, she tried to grab it. However, the thing was clever and, seeing that she couldn't beat it, it nimbly dodged Yue Jiuyue's hand and rolled out of the cave!
"What is that? What are you doing?"
Just as Yue Jiuyue was about to give chase, a person emerged from a tent. It was Uncle Liu. When Uncle Liu came out, he saw the fleeing figure of that thing and, thinking it was something else, he looked at the outside of the cave in surprise and asked Yue Jiuyue and Uncle Liu, "Did you see that thing? What was it?"
"I don't know, I don't recognize him either," Yue Jiuxing said. "But maybe he's a savage?"
Because their movements weren't very loud, only Uncle Liu was awakened. Uncle Liu came out and said, "Savages? No way, how could there be savages here? I thought I heard some noises outside while I was sleeping, so I got up to check it out. I didn't expect to see this. If something came, why didn't you wake everyone up?"
Sixth Uncle looked at the two of them reproachfully.
Yue Jiuyue noticed his reproach and smiled, saying, "Oh, we didn't have time to call you because it attacked too quickly and then ran away too quickly."
That's what they said, but in reality, they never intended to wake everyone up. They just wanted to catch that thing and study it later. What was the point of waking people up? It wouldn't do any good.
"Forget it, we've already run away. Just be careful, and if that thing comes back, remember to wake us all up."
Uncle Liu then went back into the tent to rest.
After that thing ran away, Yue Jiuyue sat back down in her seat. She stroked her chin and said, "This must be the thing that was spying on us when it was raining. But is it really a savage? How strange."
"I don't know, but let's not bother trying to catch it. It's a waste of time. Just leave it alone as long as it doesn't come back."
Yue Jiuxing knew that Yue Jiuyue wanted to grab the thing from earlier, but she disagreed.
Hearing her words, Yue Jiuyue had no choice but to give up the idea of catching that thing. She nodded and said, "Okay, I'm hungry. Why don't we eat something first?"
"Let's eat canned food then, there's not much left in the bag."
Yue Jiuxing rummaged in her backpack for a moment, then said, "Or do you want to eat something else?"
"Other options are fine too."
As she spoke, Yue Jiuyue walked to the entrance of the cave and whistled. Soon after, a pheasant appeared.
This pheasant was an ordinary animal, easily bewitched by Yue Jiuyue's magic, and thus it was summoned to be her midnight snack.
"Tsk tsk, not bad, but we should finish eating as soon as possible, otherwise it won't be good if they find out we ate some of it."
While quickly dealing with the silly pheasant, Yue Jiuxing whispered something.
Not long after they finished their late-night pheasant snack, Yue Jiuxing and her team's night watch time was almost over. When it was time to change shifts, no one noticed that they had been sneaking a bite.
"Hehe, I'm so happy, I'm so full and it's so satisfying."
Before going back to sleep while touching her belly, Yue Jiuyue felt very satisfied.
The person on night watch outside smelled a strange fragrance, but could not find the source of the fragrance.
"That's strange, why does it smell like barbecue?"
A man sat down in front of the campfire, sniffing the air around him, and said, "It smells so good, it smells like roast chicken."
"Are you still half asleep? Where's the roast chicken? But there does smell something nice here, which is really strange..."
"Right, right, you smelled it too, but where is this smell coming from? It's so strange, is there something wrong with our noses again? That can't be!"
Another watchman was also sniffing the air, but after sniffing for a long time, they still couldn't find the source of the smell. In the end, they could only conclude that it was because they hadn't eaten roast chicken in a long time, which was why there was a problem.
