“Aba aba…”
Madison, leading four socially awkward individuals, encountered the Zhen brothers, who were hunting. Following them up the mountain and witnessing the scene before them, Madison's already slurred speech became even more stammering.
Such talk as "After eating a boxed lunch, one can speak eloquently," or "We're all almost transformed from 'caveman' into civilized people living in houses," and so on...
They had heard the Zhen brothers muttering incoherently the whole way.
Sure enough, as soon as they saw the boxed lunch that Mingmei handed them, they immediately took it and ate it quietly.
Without a doubt at all.
Mingmei's memory is not bad. Apart from Madison, the other people in front of her seem to be her classmates.
"Your attire is a bit strange..."
Lu Xiaoyao, naturally drawn to any excitement, was immediately intrigued by Madison's arrival and the attire of his entourage.
The people present had long since escaped the awkwardness of being covered by a few leaves, and were now covered in woven animal hides and vine cores. However, the animal hides wrapped around the people in front of them didn't seem to be familiar to them!
"Hey! Is that the outermost skin of a wild beast?" Someone in the room suddenly recognized it!
"Um."
They nodded after finishing the boxed lunch that Mingmei handed them.
Wow! You guys are so strong?
After Lu Xiaoyao realized what was happening, she exclaimed in surprise. Mingmei, who was standing to the side, could tell that the beast skins they were wearing were not all the same, indicating that they had killed more than one beast.
That's really powerful!
Small ones go in groups, large ones go alone. No matter which type of dinosaur they targeted, Mingmei had to give them a thumbs up.
However, she didn't remember that these socially awkward mushrooms in her class were so powerful.
As they ate their boxed lunches, and with Lu Xiaoyao encouraging them to talk, the group quickly became more fluent in their speech. Then, Lu Xiaoyao's gaze fell on Madison, who seemed to be deep in thought: "Madison, you're really something else."
"No, not really." Speaking of which, Madison couldn't help but laugh at the way the four of them, who had been like invisible mushrooms, immediately breathed a sigh of relief when Lu Xiaoyao turned her gaze to him.
"It's mainly because they're smart. They called on me to ambush those wild beasts and savage creatures. I'm usually the bait."
Mingmei: "Wow~"
Lu Xiaoyao: "Huh?"
Madison's answer successfully made the four people the focus of everyone else present. Immediately, the four people felt uncomfortable all over and wished they could find a wall to face and not see them.
However, recently, whether it's large-scale group battle games or the sixteen-person dormitory in the Second Military Academy, a hellish place for social anxiety, they have become much better.
The four people were standing together when someone suddenly said, "They're alright, they're just stupid."
Everyone: =. =?
"Have you all earned enough game credits by the end of this semester?"
Mingmei suddenly asked this question.
Socially anxious student A: "It's already full."
Student B, who suffers from social anxiety: "The National Day holiday was completely booked."
"Huh? You guys are fast?"
Lu Xiaoyao looked at her classmates with a look of utter disbelief, her face conveying the astonishment that said, "Don't try to fool me, I'm not well-educated."
Socially anxious student C: "Don't later games have death highlights?"
Socially anxious student D: "To avoid social anxiety and become less famous, I stay up all night playing games."
The four socially awkward individuals exclaimed in unison, "That's right! To avoid social anxiety-induced death, we'll grind!"
Mingmei: It turns out they're actually a group of socially anxious people.
These people should have been speaking with great energy, but the way they spoke gave off a strangely dejected feeling.
It sounds more like the emptiness that comes after finishing something.
"Stop chatting, it's still early, we have a lot to do, let's get to work."
Mingmei cleared her throat, breaking the increasingly awkward silence in their conversation, and then pulled away the dejected Lu Xiaoyao. (www.cascoo.net)
Lu Xiaoyao: In the end, it's just that I'm too bad!
Mingmei helped her process the meat, hanging it in a cool, well-ventilated place to dry, as a reserve for the upcoming winter.
Mingmei took the dark-colored fruit and smeared it on the dried meat, staining the meat a dark brown color.
The soy sauce fruit was discovered by Mingmei and her picking team by chance some time ago, and now they rely on the saltiness of the soy sauce fruit to get their salt intake.
Unfortunately, I prefer the pure white salt to soy sauce.
"It would be nice if there was salt."
“Let’s take it one step at a time. Since you like this kind of dark, braised meat, let’s dry it like that kind of air-dried meat.”
Having emerged from her earlier melancholy, Lu Xiaoyao heard Mingmei's sigh and offered words of comfort, "It's good enough to have something to eat. Even if all else fails, you can just drizzle some fruit on top for flavor, anything will do..."
As she spoke, she smacked her lips, making Mingmei laugh.
"why are you laughing?"
"I'm telling you, at a time like this you still look like you're craving something." Mingmei said, and then directly dried a few pieces of dried meat that weren't marinated with soy sauce.
"What's the big deal? I already said I'm not picky!"
"But you don't like the food I cook."
Lu Xiaoyao: "How can that be the same?"
Lu Xiaoyao rolled her eyes at Mingmei, and seeing that no one was around, she pulled Mingmei aside and said some "heart-to-heart": "Meimei, let me tell you, you should have some sense of propriety. Mu Chen can do it, so it's fine. You... it's unnecessary. You shouldn't do it in the future."
Mingmei: "...?"
...
In the evening, Julian and Lu Gui's other hunting team also brought back several players.
