Everyone looked at Ye Li again.
Ye Li looked at Tu Ling, then at Zi Ye: "Why are you looking at me?" He was just asking what fire was. Was it necessary to stare at him like that?
"This is our camp's business, why should it concern you, a stray beast? Do you want us to tell you, and then you run back and tell the other stray beasts?" Zi Ye spoke without caring about Ye Li's face at all, and every word he said was mocking Ye Li. This Ye Li, with a vixen's face, must have been sent by the stray beasts to seduce their female master. He was really scheming.
Ye Li was a little angry at what he said. He hadn't thought about it so much, but he was scolded: "Yeah, is it not possible? You guys captured me in the first place. When I get back, I will kill you all!"
"Okay, stop arguing. Yinhen, go cook, and then throw this wireworm into the fire." Tu Ling pinched her eyebrows. It turned out that having too many men meant more trouble.
"Okay." Yin Hen took a piece of firewood and started a fire from Tu Ling to cook.
"By the way, Zi Ye, you can't keep this whole basket of mushrooms. Find a place to bury them quickly so that others won't eat them by mistake."
"Why? There are still a lot of mushrooms here, and they are not poisonous." Zi Ye was reluctant.
Tu Ling walked to Zi Ye and gave him a critical hit on the head.
"Ouch!" Zi Ye cried out in pain.
"How dare you say that? Have you forgotten how embarrassing you were last night?" Tu Ling gritted her teeth. If she hadn't eaten less and the poison wasn't too serious, coupled with her strong mental strength, the cave would have been looted by Ye Li, the big-tailed snake, last night.
"Last night?" Zi Ye tried hard to recall, but he only remembered that he had eaten last night, and then he had no recollection of it. Hearing what Tu Ling said, could something have happened last night? "Madam, what happened between us last night?"
Tu Ling explained to him: "Last night, we all got mushroom poisoning, it was all because of your blue mushroom."
"Didn't you eat the blue mushroom?"
"Maybe the poison is too strong and it was contaminated by the mushrooms in the same basket. Don't worry about it and bury it first." Tu Ling waved her hand, signaling him to hurry up.
"Okay, it's my fault." Zi Ye took a basket of mushrooms out of the cave and found a place to bury them.
Ye Li watched the crowd disperse, then walked up to Tu Ling and asked in a low voice: "Is fire the thing you hit me with last night?" He still remembered the unbearable burning sensation. If he used that killing iron wire worm, he would definitely be able to kill it.
Tu Ling looked at Ye Li, who was like a curious baby, and suddenly asked, "How old are you?"
"What?" Ye Li looked alert. She wouldn't ask him how old he was, or let him join her camp if he was an adult.
"Tell me how old you are, and I'll tell you if it's fire."
Ye Li hesitated for a while, then answered: "I'm sixteen, soon to be seventeen."
!!!
Tu Ling was shocked. How could she not be an adult? She was a very principled person, yet she actually kissed a minor forcibly.
He really looks too mature, with a tall figure and charming features. Who would have thought he is only sixteen!
"You're not even an adult yet?" Tu Ling looked at him with a constipated expression.
Bai Qi on the side spoke up: "Madam, orcs become adults at the age of fifteen, and you are only seventeen."
I'm only seventeen? I'm the one who's underage!
Fortunately, the age of adulthood for orcs is fifteen, otherwise she would have really committed a crime.
"You don't even know the age at which an orc reaches adulthood. You're supposed to be a smart female, but you're nothing special." Ye Li looked at Tu Ling with disdain and continued, "Well, now that I've told you how old I am, you should also tell me if that red thing was popular last night."
Tu Ling was a little unhappy about being despised by Ye Li. This kid actually dared to talk to him like that: "I regret it now. I don't want to tell you anymore."
"You actually lied to me! You clearly said you would tell me!" Ye Li was furious. Although he had often been bullied and offended by females before, he had never been deceived by a female.
"So what if I lied to you." Tu Ling smiled evilly. The kid who hadn't even grown all his hair dared to yell at her.
Yeah? Tu Ling touched his chin. Snakes don't seem to have hair, do they?
"Don't even think about me talking to you anymore!" Ye Li turned around resolutely, transformed into a beast and coiled in the corner.
Aren’t females most afraid of the wild form of males? Then he will turn into a snake every day and scare her to death.
After breakfast, Tu Ling took the whole family, including the grumpy Ye, out. She was wondering if she could find more kinds of food.
This time they went very deep and even reached the source of the stream, which was a huge waterfall.
The waterfall is 200 meters high and you can’t even see the top of the mountain when you look up.
"Oh——" Tu Ling rarely exclaimed, because this waterfall was really too beautiful and spectacular.
The white water rushed down vertically from the sky, hitting the huge rocks, splashing water and buzzing and screaming.
"Have you been up there?" Tu Ling looked at Yin Hen and pointed to the top of the mountain.
Yinhen shook his head. "No, an orc climbed up before. He said that when he was halfway up, it was as if he had entered the ice season. So everyone guessed that the top of the mountain must be extremely cold and not suitable for orcs. Since then, no one has climbed up there again."
"Actually, it's not the ice season. Forget it, let's go." Tu Ling had no interest in climbing mountains.
The group left the waterfall and walked to the side. Away from the stream, the land was not as moist and the plants were different.
When Tu Ling saw a plant with small white flowers and green and red fruits hanging on it, she immediately walked forward and said with some surprise: "It's hot peppers."
This kind of pepper is different from green pepper. It is very spicy and can be stir-fried with various ingredients.
Tu Ling asked them to pick some and dig up a few trees to see if they could plant them when they got back. After all, this place was a bit far away. They set out after breakfast in the morning and would not arrive here until the afternoon.
"Are the chili peppers delicious?" Zi Ye picked one up and played with it in his palm.
"It's delicious, but some orcs can't eat it," Tu Ling said. If someone who can't handle spicy food eats something as spicy as a chili pepper, it's bound to be painful.
"Which orcs can't be eaten?" Zi Ye asked again: "Can I eat them?"
"Not necessarily." Tu Ling replied. Who knows if he can eat spicy food, but it is likely that he can't: "But you'd better not eat it."
"What's the difference between orcs that can be eaten and orcs that cannot be eaten?" Ye Li, who was forced to do hard labor, suddenly asked.
Tu Ling looked at him and said, "The difference is that one can be eaten and the other cannot."
"Aren't you talking nonsense?" Ye Li was speechless.
"Who allowed you to speak to the female master like that." Yin Hen held Ye Li's shoulders with cold eyes and exerted force secretly.
Ye Li looked painful: "I know, let go!"
When Yinhen let go of Ye Li, he felt like his arm was about to break.
Tu Ling was a little proud: "See, Xiao Lili, this is what happens when you offend me."
"If there weren't males protecting you, you'd be nothing!" Ye Li muttered softly, not daring to say it out loud, otherwise he would definitely be beaten by those males.
