After being shocked, Xiang Ci said what was in her mind: "This rabbit doesn't look like it has grown bigger in the past two days? Then why do you think our rabbits have not changed?"

Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at her, thinking deeply.

"Xiao Qi is right." Ye Kai put the dissected rabbit skin aside and opened the rabbit's belly, "A rabbit this big doesn't grow up in a day or two."

"Is it possible that there is something on the mountain that we don't know about that affects their growth?"

"Look at this deer, it hasn't gotten bigger, it's its normal size."

"If the deer gets bigger, it must be at least as big as a calf, right?"

Xiang Xinbai scolded him: "What if the deer in my hand is actually a cub?"

These words sent shivers down everyone's backs and the soles of their feet. It was so scary.

Xiang Ci stared at the deer. This deer looked like an adult deer. It was about the same size as the adult deer she had seen before. It should weigh forty or fifty kilograms.

If this was just a deer cub in front of me... then this would be terrible!

If we didn’t catch rabbits but only deer deer, we really wouldn’t know how big the animals were.

If one day mutated animals come down from the mountain and harm the village, how can the villagers resist it?

After a long time, Ye Kai poured water on the cut-up rabbit on his hand and said, "If this is the case, think about wild boars, tigers, wild wolves, and blind bears... Not to mention that they get bigger, it is normal. When the villagers encounter them, they will all It’s a narrow escape.”

Wild boars, tigers, wild wolves, bears, and blind men are not something humans can resist in the first place. If this were twice as big, it would really wipe out a village with one slap.

Xiang Ci thought about it and felt a chill running down his back, and he felt chills all over his body: "What should we do?"

"Perhaps only this rabbit has a chance to grow so big. The other animals are very stable." Xiang Xinbai said uncertainly, "This is impossible to say. Let's not scare ourselves."

Ye Kai shook his head, his eyes firm: "No, think about the five-step snake."

These words made everyone take a breath and look horrified.

When the snakes came out, they were more than one meter long and as big as a wrist. They were all eaten as meat by the people in their village.

At that time, the villagers said that the snake was too thick and long, which was very strange.

But at that time, everyone only thought about adding food rations, and did not care whether the larger snake was abnormal.

Maybe there is such a big nest of snakes somewhere they don't know about.

Now seeing such a big rabbit, the snakes that they had ignored suddenly appeared in their minds clearly and sensitively.

Xiang Xinbai's pupils suddenly dilated: "This... you really forgot if you didn't tell me. Those snakes are really ridiculously big. I didn't think anything of it before, but now compared to this rabbit..."

He opened his mouth wide and punched his palm fiercely: "It turns out that when the sun is abnormal, animals start to get bigger. This is really unfair. Animals can get bigger, so why not let us get bigger too."

It is only fair that they are equal, otherwise they humans will be tortured and killed by animals.

Xiang Ci also thought of another big object at home: "Did the big red grow bigger because it drank nectar water, or did it grow bigger after going to the mountains?"

Ye Kai and others looked at her: "Good question!"

Do you want to go home and ask Dahong so that he can actually recruit you?

Xiang Ci: "..."

Ye Kai put away the dagger, changed to a kitchen knife, and chopped the rabbit into small pieces: "Xiao Bai, how was the situation on the mountain after you went up?"

"That's it, it's no different from before." Xiang Xinbai cleaned the axe, put the deer on the board and started chopping, "Do you want to take a look this afternoon?"

Ye Kai hesitated before speaking: "We'll see in the afternoon."

Xiang Ci received Ye Kai's gaze and smiled slightly. Kaikai was worried that something might happen to his second uncle, and he was also worried that the refugees would leave and come back.

After the rabbits and deer were cleaned up, Xiang Wan did the work. Her craftsmanship was the best among them.

Xiang Ling made the fire while Xiang Ci did the chores, letting her do whatever she was asked to do.

Ye Kai went to Yu Lizheng's place to borrow condiments and rice. Fortunately, Yu Lizheng's place had both.

When Yu Lizheng gave Ye Kai the condiments and rice, he complained a few words in distress.

Ye Kai came back with something: "Yu Lizheng said that Yu Yuanhang hasn't come back yet, and said that this child is very cruel."

Xiang Ci, who was trying hard not to extinguish the fire in the stove, added: "If you are not cruel, you will be bullied. Do you think he wants to?"

Ye Kai handed the condiments to Xiang Wan: "Yu Lizheng wants us to go to the mountain to help him look for it."

Xiang Ci: "..."

She might have misunderstood, ha, she really didn't hear it.

Suddenly, a puff of black smoke came out of the stove, and Xiang Ci ran away.

Ye Kai escorted her out, sat down at the mouth of the stove, and took out the wet but dry firewood inside to extinguish it, thus avoiding the chemical attack of tear gas.

Xiang Ci looked at the wet firewood that was picked out and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I really didn't see it just now."

"I don't blame you." Ye Kai fiddled with two firewood sticks, "The firewood is dry on the outside but wet on the inside. It's normal if you can't tell."

When Xiang Ci took the firewood just now, she felt that the firewood was a bit heavy on the water, but it was dry on the outside. She immediately thought that it was wet on the inside.

She was not a fool. If the pile of firewood was wet, how could she put it in the stove?

Ye Kai pointed to the small bench by the door: "You sit over there, and I'll light the fire."

Xiang Ci didn't want to cause trouble, otherwise he didn't know when he would have to eat this meal, so he sat down on the small bench obediently and acted like a girl waiting to eat.

Xiang Xinbai brought the washed deer meat and rabbit to Xiang Wan. He also moved a stool and sat next to Xiang Ci.

The two looked at each other and smiled, waiting to eat was also a kind of happiness.

Xiang Ling washed the rice, put it into the pot, added water, and started to simmer the rice.

Xiang Wan began to stir-fry deer meat and rabbit meat. Although there were not a lot of condiments, there was a little bit and the aroma was fragrant.

The villagers who had already seen Xiang Xinbai and the others carrying the deer into the yard were walking back and forth outside the yard, nibbling potatoes and sweet potatoes that were almost vomiting.

The villagers in Yujia Village still had potatoes and sweet potatoes to eat, but those villagers who fled, even potatoes and sweet potatoes were luxury goods, they were rare items, and they couldn't eat them.

Now I smell the smell of steamed potatoes and sweet potatoes, which makes my mouth water. But no one dares to rush over.

After all, what happened in the courtyard this morning scared their nerves.

Yu Lizheng's family also smelled the aroma of meat, but no one said a word, let alone went out.

Stir-fried deer meat and rabbit meat, plus a pot of rice, is Xiaoqi and the others' lunch.

Ye started a pot of deer meat and gave it to Yu Lizheng in return for the rice and condiments.

The smell of meat made the fleeing villagers' eyes brighten and their feet eager to walk towards Yu Lizheng's home.

They really had no food at all. Even if they settled here, they would still be hungry.

They also thought about borrowing food, but they couldn't borrow food as they had nothing. Since they had nothing to return, they could only dig up tree roots and peel off the bark.

The smell of the aroma and mouth watering now is a physical reaction, not that they had to take that bite.

But, it smells so good!
