Miksen refused outright without even considering it.
"No, Xiaoxiao, it's dangerous outside. I can't let you go out anymore."
Guo Xiaoxiao knew that Mikeson cared about her, so she didn't force herself to help; she just said...
"Then be careful, don't overwork yourself."
………
Mickelson ate a couple of bites of meat to fill his stomach, added some more firewood to the fire so Guo Xiaoxiao wouldn't get cold, and then left.
Guo Xiaoxiao is all alone now, spending her time by herself in the cave.
To lighten their workload, Guo Xiaoxiao, not wanting to just sit there in a daze, washed the wild vegetables that had been sitting with the dried meat.
Seeing that it was getting late, I started a fire to cook. I cut the dried meat into small pieces, added them to the pot and stir-fried them, then sprinkled in some salt and seasonings and stirred well.
Finally, add the wild vegetables and stir-fry together, then add some water and simmer. The fragrant aroma wafts from the cave.
When Mickson returned home that evening, intending to cook for Guo Xiaoxiao, she had already prepared the food. Mickson saw a pot of dishes he had never seen before, and it smelled especially delicious.
"Xiaoxiao, you can just wait for me to come back and grill the meat, why do you have to do it yourself?"
That's what he said, but Mickelson was secretly delighted; who could have another partner as virtuous as him?
Guo Xiaoxiao smiled
"You're all so busy, it's more appropriate for me to cook. If Mickson is too busy, don't come back halfway through; I can take care of myself."
Mickelson pulled her into his arms, kissed her forehead, and said...
"My female is the best, she's amazing! Don't push yourself if you're tired, nothing in the tribe is more important than you."
Guo Xiaoxiao smiled and looked down, saying, "It's just cooking, it's no big deal."
"Come and try it! I added some seasonings, it should taste good."
"Yes, of course your cooking is delicious."
"Glib-tongued"
It looked increasingly like Cang Jue. Guo Xiaoxiao added a lot of meat to Mickson's diet; they did all the physical labor and needed to be well-fed to have the strength.
Mickelson took a bite, and it tasted really good, even better than what he had eaten before. It was especially delicious; perhaps he was just really hungry.
"It's so delicious!"
Guo Xiaoxiao said modestly
"As long as you like it."
"I like it, I really like it."
Guo Xiaoxiao was amused by Miken, and during their meal, she began asking him about the Yeling tribe.
"Will Randy's tribe all live in our Yushan from now on?"
Mickelson was silent for a moment, then nodded.
"Not necessarily. They said they'd only be staying temporarily and would leave later, but the territory of the Yeling tribe has already been occupied, and they can't go back to the western continent."
The tribe perched atop the cliff is gone! Guo Xiaoxiao said.
Where is Randy?
Mickelson's expression changed slightly before he spoke.
"He was injured, but his life isn't in danger. He drank the Nine-Nine Rejuvenating Water."
Guo Xiaoxiao was relieved, Mickson said
"With the eagle protecting him, he'll be fine."
Guo Xiaoxiao then asked, "What impact will the orcs from the Forgotten Continent have on the Ancient Continent?"
"I'm not sure about that. The various tribes are currently preparing defenses, fearing that their ambitions are too great and they might conquer the continents. We'll have to wait until Cang Jue and Arthur return to confirm the specifics."
They'd been gone a long time and needed more time, so Guo Xiaoxiao didn't press them and continued eating.
It was late at night, and Guo Xiaoxiao was almost asleep in Mickson's arms, when she heard soft footsteps coming in. Guo Xiaoxiao opened her eyes.
Upon seeing Arthur and Cang Jue remove their snow-covered outer garments, she stood up and said...
"You're finally back! Have you eaten? There's still some left over from the fire; it's been burning warm."
Mickelson stood up, his brow furrowed, and said
"how's it going"
Cang Jue shook his head and went to drink some water first. Arthur sat by the fire; he was truly hungry. Opening the lid, a fragrant aroma wafted out. Guo Xiaoxiao, worried that Arthur had never eaten soup before, used a gourd ladle to scoop some into a stone bowl and handed it to him, also giving him something resembling a fork.
"Eat with this."
"I've never seen this cooking method before. The meat is quite tender and smells delicious!"
"I'm glad you like it, eat it while it's hot."
Arthur took a couple of bites and couldn't stop, finishing the whole thing in one go. Guo Xiaoxiao watched him with a smile.
Do you want more?
"Okay, give me another bowl."
Arthur was eating with a fork when Guo Xiaoxiao ladled out another bowl and placed it next to him.
Cang Jue was also hungry, so he sat down to smell the fragrant food. Guo Xiaoxiao gave him a bowl.
Cang Jue smiled at her, picked up the bowl of soup and started eating. He finished the whole pot of meat and vegetable soup in a few bites.
Feeling that the two still owed each other something, Guo Xiaoxiao thought she had cooked a lot, but it still wasn't enough. She'd have to cook more next time.
"Have you eaten enough? Shall we cook some more?"
Cang Jue was still not satisfied, but it was late and he should rest.
"That's enough, that's enough, no need to cook anymore."
Arthur put down the stone bowl, his ears twitched, and he immediately became alert, listening carefully but hearing nothing.
He quickly stood up and looked outside. In the pitch-black environment, he could only see blurry shadows, unable to make out what they were.
"who?"
He asked, his tone wary, but the other person did not answer.
Is anyone there?
Arthur said, "I'm sure there was something outside just now."
Cang Jue rushed out, and Miksen, for safety's sake, followed him on a patrol. They asked the orcs on night watch, and when they heard nothing amiss, they returned.
"No findings"
Arthur said, "Be careful, things haven't been peaceful lately."
Several people sat on the ground around the fire, and Mickson asked...
"Have you heard anything after you went out there?"
Cang Jue and Arthur both looked unwell; the situation was far from optimistic and quite serious.
Arthur threw a piece of firewood into the fire and said
"There are many orcs who have fled from the western continent to the northern continent. They say that the orcs of the Forgotten Continent have flattened the western continent and are expanding everywhere, seizing territory. Their methods are very cruel; they not only kill orcs and steal females, but they also roast and eat herbivorous orcs."
Cang Jue was furious.
"Those beasts did such a heinous thing; they'll be slaughtered sooner or later."
"How terrifying! Orcs eat other orcs! Don't they have any conscience?" Guo Xiaoxiao said, clutching her chest.
"It would be terrible if they went to the northern continent."
Cang Jue said, "No, they didn't come towards the northern continent. Today, I led my people and flew a long way to find out about the fleeing orcs. They said they went towards the Beast City."
Mickson said, "There are powerful orcs stationed in Beast City, which can hold them off, but what exactly are they trying to do? Do they want to rule the continent like Beast City? And who are the orcs leading them?"
Arthur glanced at Guo Xiaoxiao out of the corner of his eye and said
"The Serpent Beast, Carlos" [ps: Carlos's name, I was thinking about eating snail rice noodles at the time]
Guo Xiaoxiao trembled upon hearing the name. Mickson, noticing this, reached out and pulled her into his arms.
"Don't be afraid. If he dares to come, I'll kill him. I won't let him take you away again."
Guo Xiaoxiao leaned on Mickson's shoulder, her heart still pounding. The image of that man flashed through her mind, giving her goosebumps.
Seeing this, Cang Jue said, "He's really tough. He didn't die even after that. Xiao Xiao is fine. Even the toughest person is a pushover."
Guo Xiaoxiao smiled wryly: "I'm fine."
