The King of War, he has a delicate body and a soft body
Chapter 899 The Hungry Ghost
Ten days later——
Under the scorching sun, a carriage was walking slowly.
In the car, Su Manman couldn't stand the heat. She was already sweating from the heat and her cheeks were flushed.
Jiang Yunluo poured out two more cooling pills for her to hold in her mouth, then opened the curtain and looked out the window.
All you can see is desolation.
They had walked out of the densely wooded area a long time ago.
The further you go outside the pass, the poorer the plants become.
Often we have to walk a long way before we come across a small patch of woods.
The downside is that there are usually no large flowing bodies of water in such groves.
But the advantage is that it is much safer than the deep mountains and old forests. There will be no wild animals living in groups, at most there are some pheasants, rabbits and the like.
What's more, there must be a small village with a small population within two miles of this kind of forest, where people make a living by chopping firewood in the mountains.
So this journey is not too difficult.
"There seems to be woods ahead."
Jiang Yunluo saw a dense shadow in front of her from a distance, and hurriedly grabbed Su Manman: "Manman, we'll be here soon, please bear with me."
"I am fine."
Su Manman shook her head, feeling a little guilty that she had caused trouble again.
Jiang Yunluo didn't take it seriously, fearing that she would overthink it. Instead, she joked: "I wonder if we can encounter pheasants today. If we do, we can have a feast again."
Her thought of having fun while suffering made Hua Yue in front of her laugh. Hearing this, she smiled and said, "If so, what kind of food will you eat today?"
"How sweet is it? Maybe you can get some wild honey? Spread it on the chicken and blast it with fire. The wind will definitely be sweet."
Jiang Yunluo's few words whetted everyone's appetites, as if they had smelled the sweet scent following her words, and everyone started talking and laughing, as if they were going on an outing soon.
Su Manman's guilty mood also eased a lot.
Until a few people came to the small woods.
"The woods looked not far away, but I didn't expect it was already dusk..."
Su Manman raised her eyes and looked at the sky, which was already getting darker.
"It's dusk, it's time for dinner."
Jiang Yunluo was making a fire.
The three "coolies" had already consciously gone to catch game in the nearby woods.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Yunluo got it right.
Not long after, the three people came back carrying pheasants and rabbits respectively.
Lu Ting even took out a nest of honey from who knows which tree.
And was not attacked by the industrious little bees.
Everything was ready, "Chef Jiang" had lit the fire, cleaned the game, and grilled it on the fire.
The flowing honey fell into the fire and made a crisp sound.
Not long after, it was just like what she just said, even the wind was filled with sweetness.
Su Manman and Lu Ting sat next to each other, both were aroused by the scent, and they even swallowed saliva at the same frequency.
Before long, the skins of rabbits and pheasants were roasted to a golden color and covered with layers of honey, which was extremely tempting.
finally--
"All right."
The two words that everyone had been waiting for for a long time spilled out of her mouth.
She was just about to invite everyone to come for dinner, but at this moment——
Suddenly, a heavy gasping sound came from the forest!
There is someone!
"Who!"
Everyone looked stern and looked towards the grass where the noise was coming from.
next moment--
A black shadow emerged from behind the trees with lightning speed and rushed directly towards the barbecue fire!
"Let me take a bite! Please let me take a bite!"
The visitor was an unkempt man.
He was dressed in rags and looked like a young man from a wealthy family. He didn't know what happened to him, but he looked like a savage!
Xu hadn't eaten for a long time, so he stumbled, tripped, and was about to fall directly into the fire!
Fortunately, Mu Li had been playing with a pebble in his hand. He threw it away and hit the man's knee, causing him to kneel on the ground, breaking his "moth to flame" tendency.
"Let me... take a bite... please... let me eat..."
Even after he fell to the ground, he was still mumbling these words and moving his fingers forward.
Several people looked at each other, and then Jiang Yunluo took two steps forward, tore off a rabbit leg and stuffed it into the opponent's hand.
Almost as soon as they touched it, the man immediately fell to the ground and started eating hungrily!
The air is unusually quiet.
No one spoke, only the man's awkward chewing and swallowing sounds, and the almost choking cough.
Seeing him like this, Su Manman sighed in her heart, then stepped forward to pick out a complete leaf, poured some water and handed it to her.
The man didn't care to speak at all, he just took it in a hurry, drank it down, and continued to eat.
He ate three rabbit legs in a row before he recovered.
As soon as the hand was loosened, the bones fell to the ground, and the person lay there motionless.
Seeing this, Lu Ting hurriedly took two steps forward, squatted down in front of him, and poked his shoulder: "Little brother, where are you from? What happened to you?"
When the boy heard his words, he slowly raised his head.
Excessive hunger and sudden eating made his brain slow down.
After a long pause, he said: "Dead...all dead..."
"What did you say?"
Several people's expressions suddenly changed when they heard this.
Then I saw that the boy's face also changed, and he looked at the others in a panic and said, "Are you going out of seclusion? Don't go! Don't go! There are bandits outside! Those bandits kill people without blinking an eye! I...I..."
As if he remembered something, his face suddenly turned pale.
"Don't be impatient. Speak slowly."
Mu Li handed him some more water, indicating that he didn't need to speak yet.
No one urged him.
After a long time, the boy seemed to have recovered his soul and told several people what happened.
It turned out that he had come all the way from Chongqing with his family master, and was going to Luoyan City outside the Pass to do business.
Luoyan City is the city on the northwest edge of Donglai.
Beyond the city, there was the army led by Ling Fengshuo, guarding the dividing line with Xiqi.
And his real mansion is not the one in the capital.
And in Luoyan City.
Ever since he became famous as a teenager, this area has always been peaceful.
But in the past two years, he has been away, and trouble has occurred again.
This young boy and his group encountered the horse bandits who robbed the road.
He took advantage of the night to find a remote place for convenience, and thus escaped disaster.
But hiding behind the boulder, he saw clearly how the gang of horse bandits plundered his master's property, took away the young lady, his wife and a group of maids, and killed the resisting guards!
He was so frightened that he didn't dare to show up when he saw the horse bandit walking away.
It wasn't until dawn the next day that he stepped forward to check on the guard's body.
After confirming that there were no survivors, he stumbled back to Yucheng to report the news.
But he didn't have much money, and he didn't know how to use martial arts, so he could only eat wild fruits to satisfy his hunger along the way.
He starved himself to this point.
