The next day, the two got up early in the morning, packed up their tents and were ready to go.

The wooden boat continued to advance in the swamp, and they gradually penetrated into the swamp. Soon, the waters available for boats gradually disappeared, and a large swamp appeared in front of them.

Parked the wooden boat on the shore, Ci Ye and Hei Yao went ashore.

"Let's take a rest here first, eat something before we continue walking." Ci Ye looked at the muddy ground in front, it must be very difficult to walk there.

"Okay! I'm going to hunt!" Hei Yao parked the boat and looked at the muddy ground eagerly.

"We don't hunt today." Ci Ye said to him, "Your animal shape is inconvenient to fight in the swamp, and most of the beasts here are poisonous and powerful. Let's fish and eat today."

"Fishing?" Hei Yao heard another new word from Ci Ye.

"Well, it's fishing. It's a fishing tool. We can make fishing rods and baits for fishing." Ci Ye called up the production method of [Fishing Rod] from the system, and quickly obtained the corresponding production information.

After getting the production method, the next step is to collect the materials for making fishing rods. Ci Ye raised his head to observe carefully, and suddenly his eyes lit up:

"There are some thorns over there that can be used to make fishhooks, and we can go there to find some sticks!"

In the distance is a large plant that looks a bit like thorns. Ci Ye pulled Obsidian and walked over, and found that the name of this plant is [Iron Thorn], and its branches are covered with curved thorns, very tough and strong .

Taking off some thorns and using them as fishhooks, Ci Ye picked up some convenient wooden sticks from the ground.Assemble these materials together, and the original and rustic fishing rod is done.

After making the fishing rod, the next step is to make the bait.The most common bait in nature is earthworms.Ci Ye took Hei Yao to dig up the mud in the mud, searched carefully, and soon dug up a lot of earthworms.

The earthworms in the swamp are very fat, round and long, and they are very popular with fish.Hang the earthworm on the hook, throw the hook into the water, and then just wait for the fish to take the bait.

Ci Ye and Hei Yao each held a fishing rod and waited quietly on the shore.After a while, there was movement on Hei Yao's side.

"You have fish over there!" Ci Ye whispered, with an excited smile on his face, for fear that the noise would scare the fish away.

Ci Ye gave a few simple verbal instructions, and Hei Yao understood how to bring up the fish by virtue of his hunting talent.He took advantage of the trend and slid the big fish under the water for a while. After the fish was exhausted, he lifted it up, and a big fish broke out of the water.

Ci Ye quickly put the net bag on it, and this big silver fish with long arms was caught!

【Black spot fish】

[Living in fresh water, the meat is delicious. 】

[Food goods: aquatic plants, phytoplankton]

Ci Ye held the net bag, and a system information panel appeared in front of his eyes.This caught black spot fish was very strong, struggling desperately in the net bag, Ci Ye took it out from the net, fell unconscious with force, and took out a large wooden bucket from the inventory to put it in.

One fish was definitely not enough, so Ci Ye and Hei Yao continued fishing with their fishing rods.The fish in this water area are very easy to bite the hook, and the two caught more than a dozen big fish in a short while.

The weather is still sweltering, and there are too many fish to eat. Ci Ye and Hei Yao only left some delicious fish, and put the others back into the water.After catching today's food, they set up a fire directly on the shore, grilled fish and cooked soup.

The fish is cut open, coated with the seasonings you carry with you, and grilled on the fire. Soon, the rich aroma will spread.In addition to grilling fish, Ci Ye also took out a clay pot and stewed fish soup. The fish soup was full of seasoning, and it didn't smell fishy at all. The milky white soup exuded a delicious and attractive smell.

grumbling-

The fish soup in the earthenware pot was cooked and bubbling. Ci Ye and Hei Yao sat around the fire pit, eating grilled fish, and put two bowls of fish soup aside to cool.

While the two of them were enjoying their meal, there was a sudden rustling sound from the nearby iron bushes.

"What's going on?" Ci Ye put down the fish skewer in his hand, and Hei Yao also stood up, pricking up his ears and looking at the muddy ground vigilantly.

The iron thorn swayed, and something seemed to want to come inside. Suddenly, there was a violent sound of branches breaking, and a small gray head stuck out.

"This is... an orc from the Earth Dragon Tribe?" Ci Ye stared at the little head carefully. The system did not give an information panel, so it should be an orc.

Jing Kong had mentioned to him before that there were Earth Dragon Tribes, Murloc Tribes and Snake Tribes in the Poisonous Mist Purple Swamp.In fact, dragon orcs, murlocs, and snake orcs not only live in swamps, but also in the Qianhu Plain.However, the tribal orc races in the two places may be different, and everyone usually distinguishes them.

"Yes, it's a little orc." Hei Yao nodded in affirmation.

Most of the little orc's body was still hidden in the iron thorn bushes. He stared at Ci Ye and Hei Yao with wide eyes, and then crawled a few steps outside, exposing his whole body.

Ci Ye took a closer look, only to find that his animal shape is very similar to a lizard on the earth, with a gray-brown body, a large body, and a long tail trailing behind him, which looks a bit scary.

After the little orc crawled out, he turned into a strong man about the height of Hei Yao. He was muscular and strong, and his skin was dark, but his face still looked immature.

"Hello!" the little orc greeted Ciye and the others, "My name is Xi Ni, and I am an orc from the Dilong tribe. I came here following the smell of food."

This little orc was very enthusiastic. Ci Ye looked at him and responded with a smile: "Hello! I am Ci Ye, he is Hei Yao, and we are from the Howling tribe."

Xi Ni nodded, and then his eyes fell on their grilled fish and fish soup. His eyes were wide open, and he couldn't move his eyes from it. It turned out that the fragrance he smelled was coming from it. ...

"Do you want to eat with us?" Ci Ye asked him.

Xi Ni's eyes sparkled: "Is it okay? Can you really let me eat together?"

"Of course, here it is!" Ci Ye picked up a skewer of grilled fish from the fire and handed it to him.

Xi Ni pinched the fish skewer, sniffed it a few times, and took a bite carefully. The soft and tender fish meat melted in his mouth. I don't know how this grilled fish is made, it is so delicious!

Ci Ye and Hei Yao stood aside and stopped moving when they saw Xi Ni take a few mouthfuls of grilled fish.

"What's the matter? Why didn't you eat it?" Ci Ye looked at him suspiciously. He was still devouring food just now, why did he stop all of a sudden?

Xi Ni took the grilled fish and replied: "I want to bring the grilled fish back to Da Ni and Xiao Ni to eat. They are all in the nest, waiting for me to bring food back!"

"Do you have no food to eat?" Ci Ye then asked.

Xi Ni lowered her head, with a sad expression on her face: "I live with Da Ni and Xiao Ni, and I used to hunt for them to eat, but recently a lot of rotting rats suddenly appeared in the ground, and all the food we saved ate up."

After listening to Xi Ni's words, Ci Ye and Hei Yao looked at each other, and it seemed that the rat plague in the swamp was more serious than they had imagined.

"I ran here with the big mud and the little mud, looking for food, but there are fierce beasts in the water here, I dare not go into the water, so I can only look for them on the shore, and everything in the mud is destroyed The rotting rats ate them all up, so we've been starving."

Xi Ni said sadly, with tears in her eyes, it was really hard for them to live these days.

Black Yao approached him and patted him on the shoulder: "We will stay in the swamp for a while, you can be our guide, and we will give a certain amount of food in return every day."

"Really?" Xi Ni's eyes widened, showing a surprised expression.

"Well, take us to where you live. There is still some food here, which can be eaten by Da Ni and Xiao Ni." Ci Ye added.

"Okay!" Xi Ni nodded happily, wolfed down the grilled fish in his hand, stuffed it into his mouth, and turned into a beast to lead the way.

Ci Ye put the food into the inventory, and followed behind Xi Ni with Hei Yao.Xi Ni's animal shape is very suitable for walking on the mud. His body bends and swings very smoothly, leaving winding traces on the ground, like a long path.

"It's here! It's here!" Xi Ni stopped, changed back into a human form, walked to a pile of dead tree roots, and shouted: "Big Ni! Little Ni! I'm back!"

Ci Ye stood aside, only to see that after Xi Ni shouted a few times, the mud under the tree roots slowly undulated and arched slowly, and then two small gray heads were exposed.

"Xi Ni! You're back!" Two male little orcs crawled up from the mud, staring eagerly at Xi Ni with their big eyes.

"Well, I'm back, this is Ciye and Hei Yao, they gave me a lot of delicious food!" Xi Ni hugged the two little orcs and introduced them.

The two little orcs greeted Ciye and Hei Yao shyly. After getting acquainted with them, Ciye took out the grilled fish and fish soup from the inventory, and also took out some ceramic bowls, They were all placed on the ground, Obsidian also rekindled a fire, and they wanted to continue their interrupted lunch.

Now, the five of them are sitting around the fire together. The fish that were grilled before have been eaten up. Fortunately, there are quite a few fish caught. Roast on fire.

The little orcs drank the fish soup in their pottery bowls, and stared at the grilled fish on the fire without moving.

"Xi Ni, where is your tribe? Why did you take Da Ni and Xiao Ni away from the tribe?" Ci Ye asked him about the swamp and Dilong tribe while eating.

Xi Ni swallowed the fish soup, and explained slowly: "The rainy season is very heavy, which washed away many beastman's lairs and burrows, and soaked a lot of food. The rotting rats used to live in the burrows, but now they all ran to the ground. Every day, they competed with us orcs for food. There were too many rats, and the food near the tribe was quickly eaten up, and the leader said that we had to move out of there.”

"Move?" Ci Ye pondered. It seems that the Dilong Tribe's address should be very close to the cave, and it was most affected by the rats.

"Well! I brought Big Ni and Little Ni and started to migrate with the tribe. But in the swamp, besides the Earth Dragon tribe, there are Murloc tribe and Snake tribe. In order to grab the territory, the orc warriors of the tribe have to fight with them. And The rotting rats also migrated with us, always stealing our food. In this way, the tribe has not found a suitable place to settle down, and the food allocated is not enough, so I can only bring Big Ni and Little Ni out to find food of."
