Chapter 112 Qian Jingyao does it for me
Xia Yueke did it right away. She jumped up from the bed, and the floor of the cabin creaked under her feet.
She first found a bone of moderate thickness in the corner of the wooden house. It was from some strange-looking fish she had eaten last time. She saw that its bones were crystal clear, so she kept it as an ornamental item.
I didn't expect this to come in handy!
At that time, Qian Jingyao was very reluctant, thinking that she even collected garbage. But later, he gave her all kinds of more beautiful things every day.
For example, a leaf with natural golden veins, the veins sparkle brightly under the sunlight, as if golden blood is flowing.
Or a feather that shimmers with faint blue phosphorescence, emitting a cool light like a dream in the darkness, with a touch of strange purple fluff at the base of the feather.
She took the bones to the small courtyard outside the wooden house, sat down on a large flat rock, and placed the bones on a small wooden stool beside her.
Then, she brought a small carving knife and some grinding tools from the house. She narrowed her eyes slightly, her expression focused and serious.
She first used a carving knife to carefully carve the general outline of the bell on the bone, and was extremely cautious with each cut, for fear that she would accidentally damage it.
The carving knife made a slight "rustling" sound on the bone.
Just then, Qian Jingyao walked in and saw the sharp carving knife flashing with cold light in Xia Yueke's hand.
His eyes instantly became tense, and he quickly stepped forward, snatching the knife from her hand without hesitation, and said without question:
"Keke, leave this dangerous matter to me."
Xia Yueke raised her head and looked at him, with a hint of hesitation and entanglement in her eyes.
"Will it seem like I'm not sincere enough if I just do this?"
Qian Jingyao shook his head firmly, his eyes filled with worry.
"No matter what, this is too dangerous. How can you hold a dangerous bone knife? What if you accidentally cut your hand? I can't let you take this risk."
Xia Yuke looked at Qian Jingyao's serious and concerned expression, and a warm feeling rose in her heart, and she swallowed the words she wanted to refute.
Qian Jingyao sat aside with a knife in his hand and began to carve along the outline that Xia Yueke had previously drawn.
Xia Yueke said softly:
"This bell should be round, and you can carve some simple patterns on it, like the petals of the flower I saw earlier, with slightly undulating edges, like waves."
Qian Jingyao listened and nodded, his eyes focused and determined.
In fact, Qian Jingyao has a foundation in carving. He had previously carefully carved the fox wood carving that Xia Yueke wore around her neck.
The wooden fox is lifelike, its eyes seem to be shining with lively light, and the texture of its fur is clearly visible.
I saw that his hand was holding the carving knife steadily. Although his movements were not as delicate and gentle as Xia Yueke's, he was also extremely serious.
As he carved, the shape of the bell gradually became clearer, and the originally slightly rough bone slowly transformed into an exquisite bell prototype in his hands.
Xia Yuke watched intently from the side, and liked her more and more. She knew Yaoyao was amazing, but she didn't expect that she could be so good at carving a bell she had never seen before!
When Qian Jingyao completed the final decoration, an exquisite bone bell appeared before his eyes.
Xia Yueke's eyes lit up and she couldn't help but praise:
"Jingyao, you're amazing! This is exactly the bell I imagined in my mind, even more perfect than I imagined."
After hearing this, Qian Jingyao showed a relieved smile on his face and said, "As long as you like it."
Xia Yueke held the newly made bell in both hands. She placed the bell in her palm and looked left and right. The bell emitted a unique luster under the faint light coming through the window.
The more Xia Yueke looked at it, the more she liked it. She gently stroked the bell with her fingers, and a little bit of reluctance arose in her heart. If this was not a gift specially prepared for Ayang, she would have wanted to secretly take it for herself!
After this, Xia Yueke looked forward to the rain stopping so she could set out on her journey to Beast City. However, the weather was not kind to her, as if it was deliberately against her. For the next week, the rain poured down with no sign of stopping.
The raindrops hit the windows of the wooden house violently, making crackling sounds.
Fortunately, the sheep tribe built the foundation of the wooden house quite high, otherwise, Xia Yue would really worry that he would be drowned by the torrential rain in his sleep.
Qing Yan was still in a deep sleep, and Qian Jingyao took on the responsibility of taking care of Xia Yueke alone.
Originally, Qian Jingyao planned to absorb the beast core to improve his strength, but Qing Yan had not woken up yet, and he was really worried about Xia Yueke.
He was afraid that she would run around alone in this rain-covered environment or encounter some unknown danger, so he kept postponing the plan of absorbing the beast core, thinking of waiting until Qingyan woke up.
Xia Yueke held her face with both hands, and her chubby chin was slightly deformed by the squeeze.
She looked through the window at the endless rain, her tone filled with dejection and helplessness:
"Yaoyao, why doesn't the rain stop? I can't wait to go to Beast City!"
Qian Jingyao walked slowly towards us, holding a pile of fruits in both hands.
The fruit is bright in color and emits a faint fragrance.
"Keke, stop looking at the rain and try the fruit the Sheep Clan leader sent you. I heard it has a vanilla flavor and is incredibly delicious!"
Xia Yueke's clever fox ears moved slightly, and a hint of curiosity and anticipation flashed in his eyes.
Vanilla-flavored fruit?
This has a great appeal to her.
She lowered her hands from her chin and eagerly reached out to take the fruit.
The fruit was a refreshing green, its skin shimmering slightly, as if freshly washed by rain. It was oval in shape, just the right size for her small hand to hold.
Xia Yuke brought the fruit close to her nose and sniffed it gently. A rich vanilla scent came to her face, instantly activating her taste buds.
She took a light bite, and the crisp taste along with the sweet vanilla flavor spread in her mouth, and the juice overflowed.
“Wow, it’s really delicious!”
Xia Yueke couldn't help but admire it, her eyes narrowed into slits, her face full of enjoyment, her cheeks puffed up, like a cute little squirrel.
At this moment, Qingyan, who had been sleeping for a long time, twitched his nose slightly.
The vanilla-flavored fruity aroma slowly drifted into his nostrils through the air, and his originally calm face gradually showed some fluctuations.
His stomach also began to growl, as if protesting against the long period of hunger.
Qingyan slowly opened his eyes, there was still some confusion in his eyes, but more of a desire for food.
He said in a daze:
"What smells so good?"
