The fire burned more and more fiercely, and the fat on the bird was roasted and dripped into the fire with a sizzling sound. Every drop of oil would send sparks flying upwards, and the twitching movement was quite beautiful.
The bird meat cooked very quickly. Zhao Si didn't bring any salt or seasoning so he could only eat the bird in its original form. However, no one knew what the bird ate, but it tasted surprisingly good.
The first bite was tender and juicy, fat but not greasy, with an indescribable fragrance. He quickly ate two of them before slowing down to savor them carefully.
At this moment, he really wished he was on the mountain. Of course, it would be even better if he was at the foot of the mountain. He heard that those heroes ate meat with wine, a bite of meat, a sip of wine, it really was like a living god. He also wanted to be like that.
Rustle...rustle...
Suddenly, Zhao Si's ears twitched, and he stood up with a jerk, his sword tightly gripped in his hand. He was no longer relaxed and at ease, his face was serious, his lips were tightly pursed, and his eyes were observing the surroundings like a vulture.
Rustle...rustle...
The mountain was surrounded by trees and bushes, and even the wild flowers and grass grew as tall as a person. Zhao Si could only hear something moving but could not see anything.
He climbed up the tree in a few steps, held his breath, and looked around.
!!!
Blind bear!!!
Two blind bears taller than Zhao Si were not far away from him!
Although Zhao Si often went out hunting, he only hunted small animals. If he really encountered big animals like tigers or blind bears, he could only run away secretly.
He held his breath, climbed down from the tree quietly, picked up his bag and ran quickly in the opposite direction of the blind bear.
It was impossible to run in a forest with dense branches and leaves without making any noise. Even though he was good at light work and his steps were light and fast, the sound of branches being knocked apart and broken still reached the blind bear.
The blind bear has poor eyesight, but his sense of smell and hearing are really good. What's more, Zhao Si didn't forget to bring his bird with him when he ran, so he was simply a sitting duck.
The blind bear chased after it quickly, running on all fours, crushing the flowers and grass along the way into pieces.
Zhao Si ran as fast as he could, but Blind Bear kept right behind him. The forest got deeper and deeper, and the path became increasingly difficult to follow. Zhao Si had no choice but to use his sword to clear the way as he ran.
He could fly, but the trees in the forest were so well-grown that the branches were so large and dense that they were stacked on top of each other, like a dragnet that prevented him from flying even if he wanted to.
The blind bears were getting closer and closer, and Zhao Si could actually hear their panting sounds. The sound made his hair stand on end and his scalp tingle. He was so confused to encounter such a thrilling situation right after coming down the mountain that he couldn't think of anything else and just kept running as hard as he could.
I don’t know how long I ran, but Zhao Si’s legs became more and more sore, he became more and more panicked, and his hand that was swinging the sword was so weak that he could hardly lift it.
In his busy schedule, he took the time to look at the bird meat in his left hand.
I want to throw it away, but I can't bear to.
Even if I die, I want to die with a full stomach, right?
