After several days of careful care, today we finally saw fingernail-sized wheat tips emerging from the light-colored soil.

Qin Mo stretched out his fingertips and gently touched the wheat leaves, as if he wanted to confirm whether the wheat seedlings in front of him were his illusion.

The temperature difference between day and night in the black fog was extremely large. Qin Mo worried even when he was sleeping that the wheat seedlings would freeze to death or die of thirst when he was not around.

The torment involved was indescribable. Qin Mo had the illusion several times that the wheat seedlings could not survive.

Now that he saw the wheat seeds sprout successfully, Qin Mo knew he could put his mind at ease.

The trembling leaf buds brushed lightly against Qin Mo's fingertips, and the tip of his heart seemed to be touched as well, feeling soft.

Qin Mo carefully controlled the water in his hand to accurately fall on the roots of the wheat tips, for fear that the wheat tips that had finally emerged would be knocked crooked by the water and affect their growth.

The water in the bottle went to the mouth of the bottle several times and then swung back, turning around several times before it dripped onto the edge of the leaf buds.

After watering, Qin Mo straightened up and suddenly met the eyes of the person beside the wooden fence.

Qin Mo was only startled for a moment and calmly looked away.

These days, every time he came to check on the growth of the wheat seeds, he would see those scarlet eyes, without any sense or fluctuation, staring at the wooden door of the cabin.

Once their figures appear, that cold gaze will turn towards their direction like a sunflower chasing the sun.

In other words, the other party was looking at them from beginning to end, and was looking at the cabin because they were staying in the cabin.

At the beginning, Qin Mo remained alert, always keeping a glance at the other party.

Later, Qin Mo found that the other party was just staying quietly by the wooden fence and doing nothing, so he stopped distracting him.

However, Qin Mo did not relax his vigilance.

The other party is a qualified hunter.

The only change in its activity over the past few days was to fill its stomach with food from other creatures that came close to the wooden fence.

Apart from that, he stayed by the wooden fence all the time.

Sometimes Qin Mo would have a strange thought when watching them, wondering if the other party was treating them as captive food.

Otherwise, why would they be worried about being stolen by other black fog creatures and keep driving away other black fog creatures approaching the Novice Village?

During the mutual observation, Qin Mo had the opportunity to observe a simple and violent battle.

It was a peaceful morning like today, and the scarlet eye struck away the approaching black shadow.

A loud crash sounded in the black fog.

The other party was clearly not qualified to be Scarlet Eyes' opponent.

He didn't even take the blow from Scarlet Eyes.

After Qin Mo blinked several times, he heard intermittent chewing sounds and roaring screams coming from the black fog.

After the battle, the opponent was torn alive and eaten as food by the owner of the scarlet eyes.

As the last weak roar in the black fog sank into darkness, the scarlet eyes reappeared at the wooden fence.

The scarlet eyes that returned to the wooden fence did not change at all. The violence and blood of the battle did not add any extra color to those eyes.

Qin Mo once again felt a little curious about the true face of the scarlet eyes, but unfortunately the body part except the eyes was hidden in the black fog and he could not see anything clearly.

A hint of disappointment flashed across Qin Mo's eyes.

After this incident, Qin Mo would hear strange chewing sounds coming from the wooden fence every once in a while.

It was the kind of sound where skin and bones broke together.

Just by listening to the sound, Qin Mo's mind automatically emerged a scene of a big mouth full of sharp teeth easily biting off a piece of flesh from the prey and chewing it.

You don't have to go out hunting, food will be delivered to your door.

Scarlet Eyes stayed at the wooden fence even longer.

No matter when Qin Mo walked out of the cabin, he could see a pair of emotionless eyes staring at the cabin from afar.

There were powerful black fog creatures guarding outside the village, so Qin Mo and his companions could not go out to get water.

Food and fresh water are slowly being consumed.

The next day, breakfast time.

Qin Mo sat on the threshold of the cabin, eating while looking into Scarlet Eyes.

Not long after, another one with scarlet eyes came.

Xu Xiaolou took his food and sat next to Qin Mo, muttering:

"What on earth does this guy want to do?"

"It's been several days."

After vomiting out the doubts in his mind, Xu Xiaolou chewed the bread in his hand in small bites.

The sky is big and the earth is big, and eating is the biggest thing.

Xu Xiaolou's question is also Qin Mo's question.

Cough...cough cough!

Good job.

Xu Xiaolou picked up the water and took a big gulp, while he patted his chest with his hands, trying to get the dry bread stuck in his throat to slide down smoothly.

Looking at the bread in his hand, Xu Xiaolou shouted bitterly:

"I want to eat barbecue, I want to eat rice, I want to eat meat!".

"I don't want to eat bread anymore!".

"Whoever wants to eat this damn thing can eat it."

The reluctant tone was drawn out, floating over the cabin.

"Don't want to eat?"

"If you don't want to eat it, you can give it to me."

Hua Chi closed her door and walked over and said coldly.

He never thought that he had too much food.

"I was just joking, just joking."

Xu Xiaolou saw a flattering smile on Hua Chi's face and quickly stuffed the bread into his mouth.

Just kidding, if you slow down it will be gone.

Two small bags quickly appeared on Xu Xiaolou's cheeks, making him look like a hamster with melon seeds and nuts hidden in his cheeks.

Hua Chi shook his head.

A smile flashed across Qin Mo's eyes as he chewed two bites of bread. After smacking his lips, he felt his mouth was tasteless and stuffed the bread in his pocket.

While they were talking, the scarlet eyes kept looking at the three of them.

Hua Chi sat on the other side of Qin Mo, tapping the ground with his fingers impatiently:

"You said it was looking at us and thinking what."

"Are you also thinking about it? I really want to eat those three pieces of meat."

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of knuckles tapping nearby suddenly accelerated.

Qin Mo: “…”

Another one who is almost driven crazy by bread.

I remembered the scene I saw before.

Qin Mo raised his eyes and glanced at the scarlet eyes, thinking that the other party had no shortage of meat to eat.

Three people, wheat seedlings, scarlet eyes, in a straight line.

If you turn your gaze towards the wheat seedlings, you will inevitably meet scarlet eyes.

Suddenly, the scarlet eyes faded from Qin Mo's sight.

Xu Xiaolou looked back at Qin Mo and said hesitantly: "Are you unable to wait... and leaving?"

There were two dull knocking sounds of knuckles, and Hua Chi said in a deep voice:

"I'm afraid it's not that simple."

The other party persisted in guarding them for several days.

Qin Mo's eyes darkened, and he paused for a moment before saying:

"After observing for the past few days, do you think the other party is an intelligent creature or is it hunting instinctively?"

There is a big difference between the two.

Boom!

Knuckles banged on the ground, and Hua Chi responded:

"It's hard to say."

If it is an intelligent creature, its patience is too good. It can be said that it is just a hunting instinct, and its behavior is not like that.

As the conversation between Qin Mo and the other two ended, Scarlet Eyes also ended his hunting trip.

Bang!

There was a dull thump of something heavy hitting the ground not far away.

Qin Mo stood up reflexively and looked towards the source of the sound.

An unknown creature estimated to be nearly two meters long was lying on the edge of a wheat field that was slightly green, with its strong limbs bent together in a strange cross posture.

It looks like it was broken by force.

The only culprit is the scarlet eye that threw it in.

The unknown creature's thick, scaly tail slanted over a corner of the wheat field, almost hitting the new wheat seedlings.

This is the prey of scarlet eyes...

But why didn’t Scarlet Eyes eat the prey himself and threw it into the village?

Qin Mo subconsciously looked at Hua Chi and found that the other person's eyes were filled with the same coldness and fear.

Suddenly, an idea flashed through Qin Mo's mind again.

Can the other party understand what they are saying?

After listening to Xu Xiaolou's words, he went out hunting.

No, no.

How can it be!

Scarlet Eyes went out hunting, actually to feed them.

No matter how Qin Mo thought about it, he found it unbelievable.

However, the detection results showed that the creature had no signs of life and was dead, and posed no threat to the three people.

The facts show that Qin Mo's thinking is correct.

Until the end, Qin Mo found that apart from that fleeting thought of disbelief, he could not find any other reason to explain why this black mist creature was thrown into the Novice Village by Scarlet Eyes.

The scarlet eyes threw the prey in, and then turned back to their previous dull and dazed look.

He didn't care at all about Qin Mo and the others' reactions to his actions.

The thoughts in my mind are tangled together, like a ball of wool that can't be sorted out or cut.

Qin Mo felt a little regretful that he did not accept Xiaoyue's suggestion to solve the problem.

From the time the other party appeared outside the Novice Village until now, the three of them have not yet figured out the intentions of this black fog creature.

Qin Mo frowned slightly.

Why did you refuse at that time?

This is because the other party guarding outside is both a hunter and a guard.

Some black fog creatures that coveted the Novice Village died more or less at its hands.

With its presence, Qin Mo felt much more peaceful when he went out during the day.

Qin Mo thought about it and felt that it would not be a good idea to leave the black fog creature there.

Maybe Scarlet Eyes will think that they don't like this prey and go hunt for other ones and throw them in.

It is unpredictable whether the wheat field can escape the fate of being hit next time.

Qin Mo slowly approached the wheat field and spoke to stop Hua Chi and Xu Xiaolou who wanted to follow him:

"I'll go take a look, you guys wait here."

Hua Chi stared at the scarlet eyes, nodded and reminded Qin Mo: "Be careful."

Walking to the edge of the wheat field, Qin Mo bent down to drag the black fog creature lying beside the wheat field.

He exerted force with his arms, and the black mist creature trembled slightly, but still lay there motionless.

No drag.

Qin Mo glanced at the black mist creature's body, found a place to hold it with less effort, and grabbed it with both hands.

This time the dragging was barely smooth, and a deep dragging mark was left on the ground where the black fog corpse passed.

After dragging it to the cabin, Qin Mo quickly threw away the corpse of the black mist creature in his hand and took a deep breath.

Really heavy.

Bang!

The corpse of the black fog creature collided with the ground.

The tiny specks of dust were like countless butterflies of death, fluttering and flying around.

Hua Chi and Xu Xiaolou came over.

Huachi: “It looks really big.”

"Can I eat it?"

Qin Mo: “…”

Well...he wanted to know too.

Qin Mo: "Touch it and you can see its information."

Seeing that nothing happened, Xu Xiaolou rushed towards the place where the black fog creature was lying before.

After a while, Xu Xiaolou returned to Qin Mo's side, stretched out his hand and said excitedly: "Look! Look!".

Qin Mo looked over when he heard the sound and saw three dark blue fan-shaped scales lying on Xu Xiaolou's hand.

The scales are thick in the middle and thin at the edges, vaguely reflecting the figures of three people.

Like a sharp blade.

Suddenly, Xu Xiaolou picked up the scales in his hand and scratched the part of the black fog creature that was not covered by the scales.

Along a thin line, the dark blue skin instantly opened to both sides, revealing bright red flesh.

Xu Xiaolou himself was also shocked: "Oh my god!"

"So sharp."

Qin Mo glanced at Xu Xiaolou with complicated eyes.

Suddenly, Hua Chi, who was standing next to the torn flesh of the black fog creature, whispered:

"Give me one."

Taking the scale picked up by Xu Xiaolou, Hua Chi squatted down and inserted the scale along the blood line drawn by Xu Xiaolou.

Gradually, small puddles of blood appeared under the black fog creature.

After a while, the entire skin along with the scales was peeled off completely by Hua Chi with a quick and neat technique.

Qin Mo's expression became more complicated.
