Chapter 29 Barbecue
Sure enough, two adult tigers were found lying on the ground covered in blood, with only one cub circling around them.
As soon as the two adult tigers sensed someone approaching, the larger one struggled to stand up but couldn't.
When the smaller one saw Gu Liyue, it seemed to know that she would not hurt their cubs, and it just called out softly.
Gu Liyue found that they would not hurt her, so she walked closer to take a look and saw that they were indeed covered in blood.
She asked Xiaoxuan if the healing pill would be useful to them.
Xiaoxuan said: "It is useful, but they are too badly injured. I am afraid they can't survive."
Gu Liyue said compassionately, "Give it a try. I have plenty of space anyway."
She took out a bottle of healing pills and gently approached them. She approached the smaller saber-toothed tiger first, waved the pill in front of it, and said, "This is for your healing. Please don't bite me!"
Then he poured out five pills and held them to the tiger's mouth. The saber-toothed tiger slowly opened its mouth. Gu Liyue threw the pills into the tiger's mouth and said, "Be good."
Then he followed the same method and fed the other adult tiger the elixir.
He took out another bottle, crushed it and sprinkled it on their wounds.
After some operations, the two saber-toothed tigers looked more lively.
Gu Liyue stood up and tried to move forward, but suddenly she found her skirt being dragged by the tiger cub. It was dragging her in one direction, and she was confused as to why.
"It wants to take you to find treasure." Xiaoxuan said.
Gu Liyue bent down, picked it up, and touched its fur. It was as comfortable as she had imagined.
Xiaoxuan looked at her expression, and alarm bells started ringing in his heart. Why did he feel like there was an animal trying to compete with him for his affection?
Under Xiaohu's guidance, Gu Liyue found a meteorite tree, and it was a meteorite tree that had a meteorite fruit.
According to "Spiritual Herbs and Alchemy," the Starfall Fruit, imbued with the power of falling stars, can be used to enhance concealment or speed up alchemy. It takes five hundred years for it to bloom and bear fruit.
Gu Liyue originally thought that the Falling Star Fruit should be impossible to find and might just be a legend, but she didn't expect it to really exist.
She put the tiger cub on the ground and reached out to the meteorite fruit: "Will you let me pick it?"
Xiaohu understood and nodded.
Gu Liyue reached out to the branches of the Falling Star Tree and asked, "Can I break off a branch?"
Xiaohu tilted his head and looked at Gu Liyue in confusion, as if he didn't understand why she wanted both fruit and branches. Could the branches be eaten?
Later it nodded.
Gu Liyue picked the meteorite fruits and broke off some branches for planting.
She stored the fruits and branches in the space, hoping that the meteorite fruit tree would be successfully transplanted.
I took the tiger cub back to its parents. They looked much more energetic and could stand up. I thought they had saved their lives. I was about to say goodbye to them.
Xiaoxuan saw the tigress mumbling something.
"Liyue, it wants Xiaohu to follow you and form a bond with you." Xiaoxuan said slowly, and it was obvious that it was reluctant to pass on the message.
Gu Liyue frowned and said, "Tell it that when it grows up, we can form a bond again if we are destined to do so!"
Xiaoxuan felt relieved. Look, Liyue still cares about herself.
In reality, Gu Liyue was impatient to raise a cub that had no fighting power and would cost her spirit stones. Petting the cub was nice, but the thought of spending so many spirit stones discouraged her.
The two big tigers had no choice but to nod, but the little tiger kept biting the corner of Gu Liyue's skirt.
Gu Liyue had no choice but to pick it up and put it on its mother's back. She patted its head and said, "Grow up well, learn skills well, and fight with me again when the time comes."
Xiaohu immediately stood up with renewed energy, which made Gu Liyue laugh out loud.
Gu Liyue planned to walk deeper into the forest.
She summoned [Wuhua] and flew into the depths of the forest on her sword.
Along the way, she dug spiritual herbs and fought monsters. However, the monsters she fought were getting higher and higher in level, from the first or second level to the fourth level. Her cultivation level also increased by two small realms, reaching the fifth level of foundation building.
She also refined a lot of pills, but later she felt that the time in the space was too long, so she occasionally spent the night in the forest.
That night, because the bottles of elixirs in the space were almost used up, she decided to spend the night in the forest.
She found a small river and decided to spend the night by the river.
She planned to catch some fish or a pheasant for dinner.
She asked Xiaoxuan: "Xiaoxuan, I want to catch a pheasant and roast it. Do you agree?"
Xiao Xuan started drooling when he thought of what Gu Liyue had baked. It was so delicious.
But it didn't understand why they had to ask for its permission to catch pheasants.
It tilted its head and looked at Gu Liyue. Seeing that it didn't understand, Gu Liyue said, "These pheasants and birds seem to be somewhat related to you. Can you eat them?"
Xiaoxuan's fury exploded, and he angrily said, "I am Suzaku, and I am not comparable to these inferior creatures. What are you thinking about?"
"Oh, so that's how it is. What about those demon beasts and spirit beasts?" Gu Liyue seemed very interested in this topic.
"Monsters will eat if they can beat them, and will run away if they can't. Spirit beasts also prey on the weak."
"Oh, I see. It can also absorb the opponent's spiritual power, right?"
"You could say that."
After the discussion, the man and the beast got busy.
Xiaoxuan caught a pheasant, and Gu Liyue caught a few fish with a net by the river. She picked two big ones and let the rest go.
After processing the pheasants and fish by the river, we built a fire and started roasting them.
After a while, the aroma of barbecue wafted through the forest.
Seeing that the roast chicken was almost done, Gu Liyue sprinkled some salt and spices on it. Xiaoxuan was watching beside her with his mouth watering.
This time when she entered the forest, Gu Liyue found some spiritual herbs that could be used as seasonings in the book "Spiritual Herbs and Alchemy". She collected some as soon as she entered the forest.
These days, when she occasionally felt hungry, she would hunt some game and grill it, and try these seasonings by the way. She found that although there were not as many varieties as those in the apocalypse, they were still enough for daily barbecue, and the taste was better.
There was a chili-like ingredient that was put in too much that day. Xiao Xuan almost vomited fire after eating it, and his mouth turned red. When Gu Liyue thought about how it looked at that time, she couldn't help laughing.
In fact, Xiaoxuan thought it was delicious and exciting, but he couldn’t stand it after eating it. But he would want to eat it again next time he sees it.
Later, it asked Gu Liyue to put in less, but not to stop.
Gu Liyue also likes spicy food, but Xiaoxuan prefers it less spicy. Every time they grill meat, Gu Liyue divides it into portions and adds seasoning.
For example, for a pheasant, Gu Liyue would leave a chicken leg for Xiaoxuan, and she would eat the rest herself with spicy flavor. For two fish, she would leave half for Xiaoxuan and also add spicy flavor to the rest.
Tonight, looking at the moon at its zenith, Gu Liyue sighed in her heart: I wonder if this moon is the same one as the one at the end of the world.
Then she wondered why she had become so sentimental. She'd been so tense physically and mentally during the apocalypse, but she hadn't expected that in this world of immortal cultivation, she'd have the time and energy to reflect.
