Nestled against the man's warm and tall body, Qingyin quickly felt sleepy. Exhaustion washed over her, and she decided to rest well and recover her energy today.
The man on the other side, who was being leaned against, only began to adjust his body after he felt Qingyin's breathing become even and she drifted off to sleep, mainly to make Qingyin more comfortable.
In the darkness of night, Xu Yanli gazed at the pitch-black wall on the other side, like a Buddhist monk in deep meditation.
But Qingyin's fragile yet beautiful face remained etched in his mind, constantly disturbing his sleep.
It wasn't until the early hours of the morning that Xu Yanli managed to drift into a light sleep.
When Qingyin woke up the next morning, Xu Yanli still had his eyes closed.
Qingyin quietly got up and left. Relying on the sound and the density of the grass, Qingyin quickly found the vicinity of yesterday's water source.
After washing his face with water, Qingyin, now refreshed, jumped onto a nearby tree, intending to wait and wait for his lucky breakfast of the day.
There is never a shortage of prey near the water sources in the forest.
Qingyin, who was hiding in the tree, was lucky enough to encounter several wild rabbits and pheasants that came to drink water.
Holding the pebble in her hand, Qingyin's eyes gradually sharpened.
"Swish..." a few sounds.
The pheasants and rabbits drinking water seemed to sense danger, their small eyes cautiously scanning their surroundings.
Unfortunately, the hunters were the most elusive and skilled hunters, while the pheasants and rabbits in the forest, who had never seen humans before, were clearly unaware of such top-notch hunting techniques.
One by one they fell down, and soon the other small animals around them sensed the danger. Although they didn't know the attack method, they cleverly hid in the bushes or ran away.
Qingyin patted the ash off his hands, jumped down from the tree, and didn't care about the fleeing animals. Anyway, he had already shot the two biggest and fattest pheasants and rabbits he had chosen, and these two were enough for him and Xu Yanli to fill their stomachs. There was no need to shoot a few more and waste them.
Without any sharp weapons, Qingyin picked up a relatively flat rock that had been washed away by the river. The sharpness of the rock was still enough to deal with prey.
Qingyin weighed the stones in her hand and then focused on processing the pheasants and rabbits.
If you throw chicken skin, rabbit skin, and internal organs into the river, the two plump chickens and rabbits can still weigh about five pounds.
After washing away the blood, Qingyin wrapped the two prey in wild lotus leaves from the riverbank. She then found some wild spices to aid in grilling the meat and some wild fruits to cut through the greasiness.
Compared to the male protagonist, who had spent a long time in the palace and knew very little about wild fruits, Qingyin was much more familiar with these plants and wild fruits.
Qingyin ruthlessly plucked all sorts of harmless, ripe fruits.
Finally, Qingyin, laden with the food, embarked on her journey back to the cave.
