Chapter 37: Grilled Barbaric Bull
The white creature approached the carcass of the barbaric bull, sniffed at it, and made a disgusted face before reluctantly starting to eat.
In “The Chronicles of Great Qian’s Hundred Demons,” there were many descriptions of common demonic beasts like the barbaric bull. Its bones could be used to refine materials for warriors’ medicinal baths, and its flesh was an excellent supplement, enhancing a martial artist’s vitality.
However, what was mentioned most frequently was its tough hide, which ordinary swords and knives couldn’t pierce.
Qin Feng hadn’t expected that this small white creature, although small in size, could tear apart the barbaric bull’s hide so effortlessly. Its teeth were so sharp; had it been using toothpaste?
The white creature nibbled for a while, consuming about one-fifth of the barbaric bull’s flesh, and then stopped.
It opened its mouth, stuck out its small tongue, looking somewhat nauseous.
Huh, this little guy is picky too. Qin Feng thought and then his stomach growled, making him grimace.
Come to think of it, he hadn’t eaten anything for a long time.
Just then, one of the barbaric bull’s bloody forelimbs fell in front of him.
“Is this for me?” Qin Feng was surprised. He looked at the white creature and asked.
The white creature glanced and made a meowing sound, then turned its attention back to the barbaric bull’s corpse. It seemed to be struggling with whether it should swallow this unappetizing thing whole.
Qin Feng was moved. Demonic beasts weren’t all as ruthless as the books described, devouring humans without leaving a trace.
He looked at the fresh bull’s hoof in front of him. It was impossible to bite directly into it; he needed to find a way to deal with it.
So, he gathered some nearby twigs, lit them with a fire starter, intending to grill the meat.
He picked up a sharp piece of stone, made several cuts on the bull’s hoof, and then used a sturdy thin branch to sharpen its tip. He inserted it into the hoof and began grilling it over the fire.
As time passed, the fat in the meat was roasted out, sizzling on the charcoal below, accompanied by a rich aroma.
Seeing that the bull’s hoof was about seventy to eighty percent cooked, Qin Feng took out some chili peppers from his spatial ring, crushed them into powder, and sprinkled them on the cuts he had made with the stone earlier.
After the chili peppers were grilled, combined with the original aroma of the fat, the smell alone made one’s appetite soar.
Qin Feng picked up the barbaric bull’s hoof. After it had cooled a bit, he took a big bite, revealing a happy expression.
Drip, drip.
What was that sound?
Qin Feng lowered his head and saw that the white creature had already come up to him. It raised its small head, drooling, its pupils filled with the grilled barbaric bull’s hoof.
“Oh. Do you want a bite?”
The white creature nodded.
Qin Feng raised his eyebrows, handing the grilled bull’s hoof to the little creature. In the blink of an eye, by the time Qin Feng reacted, all that was left in his hand was a bone stick!
I only took one bite! Qin Feng widened his eyes, feeling like crying. What made him even more speechless was that the little creature clearly wasn’t satisfied.
It ran back to the barbaric bull’s corpse. In Qin Feng’s astonished gaze, with its small body, it pushed the huge carcass in front of him and then raised its head, looking at him expectantly.
“This barbaric bull’s body is too big. If you want to grill it, you have to cut the body into pieces.”
The little creature understood. It raised its claws and scratched the barbaric bull’s corpse a few times, and the massive bull’s body was instantly divided into numerous pieces.
Qin Feng gasped in amazement. This little thing was really something.
“We don’t have enough firewood here; you need to get some more.”
Upon hearing this, the white creature raised its head, meowed, and in a matter of moments, piles of branches fell from the sky, clearly the work of the giant snake.
Fine, this laborer seems to be settled.
Just as Qin Feng was about to start, he suddenly thought of something.
The giant snake from earlier seemed to be the boss of the Black Mist Forest, and this black mist was probably caused by it. And this little white creature could command that giant snake.
If that’s the case, can I ask the little creature to have the giant snake send me away?
With this in mind, Qin Feng cleared his throat and said, “Do you want to eat the grilled meat from earlier?”
The little creature nodded.
“Can you do me a favor? If you agree, I will grill some meat for you. How about that?”
The little beast tilted its head, pondered for a moment, and nodded again.
“I accidentally entered this forest. Wait for me to grill the barbaric bull for you. Can you please ask the big snake from earlier to help me leave?”
The small white beast meowed towards the sky, and at the same time, a melodious female voice echoed in Qin Feng’s ears: “If you can make the little master finish this meat, I will not only help you leave, but also send the other two girls who were with you away.”
Was that the voice of the big snake? It turned out to be a female snake! The other two girls, Miss Lan and Miss Cang? They are fine indeed! Qin Feng’s face lit up, and he clasped his fists towards the black mist above, saying, “Senior Snake, rest assured, the junior will definitely complete the task!”
Excited, he tried to get up to grill the meat but forgot about his injuries, immediately wincing in pain.
At this moment, a drop of water fell on his head, instantly turning into mist that enveloped his entire body. To his surprise, the pain from his back wound disappeared! Not only that, but even the bloodstains all over his body were rapidly fading away before his eyes.
What kind of magical substance was this water droplet? How could it have such a terrifying effect?
“What are you staring at? Don’t you want to leave?” the woman’s voice echoed again.
Qin Feng dared not delay and immediately started grilling the meat.
As time passed, a rich aroma wafted again. The wild bull’s body had been completely turned into grilled meat, and the small white beast drooled, beginning to feast heartily.
Qin Feng looked at the internal organs of the bull, thinking they were valuable, so he stored them in his storage ring. Then he looked up and asked, “Senior Snake, can we leave now?”
“I will keep my word.”
As the voice fell, the black mist in the forest began to churn, and a strong wind swept in, forming a tornado that lifted Qin Feng directly. Before he could react, his body was blown out of the Black mist forest and landed steadily at the foot of the mountain.
“Senior, what about my two friends?” Qin Feng shouted.
Near the edge of the black mist forest, two figures were swept out by the strong wind. Upon closer inspection, they were none other than Miss Lan and Miss Cang!
“Young Master!”
The three of them reunited and couldn’t help but feel excited.
Qin Feng chatted with Lan Ningshuang about what had happened after they were separated due to the impact, while Cang Feilan frowned, looking at the Black Mist Forest.
In the Black Mist Forest, the small white beast was enjoying its meal, never having tasted something so delicious before.
At this moment, the voice of the woman came from the black mist, “Little Master, is this thing really that delicious? Can I have a taste?”
The small white beast hesitated for a moment and reluctantly pushed out a small piece of grilled meat.
A strong suction force came, and the grilled meat flew into the black mist. Then a satisfied “Mmm~” sound could be heard.
“Little Master, this thing is really delicious. Let me taste another piece.”
The small white beast was shocked and jumped up hurriedly. It was about to refuse, but the largest piece of grilled meat beside it flew into the black mist in the blink of an eye, followed by another “Mmm~” sound.
The small beast kept calling into the sky, its eyes misty with tears, obviously feeling extremely wronged.
“Little Master, if you want to eat more, I can catch that guy and make more for you.”
Upon hearing these words, the small beast quieted down a bit. Then, another piece of grilled meat flew away!
Meow! It cried out in anger.
“Mmm~” the satisfied sound echoed once again.
