C219 A Beast or a Willow
The road ahead became more and more difficult to walk on as one's Pavilion Town advanced northward.
The two often had to get off the horse to walk, plus the drawing technology in this world was too behind, Lee Shi almost lost his way a few times while holding a rough map.
Thus, when the sun had set, the two of them still had not found their next resting place.
He had no choice but to find an empty place to camp and spend the night in the wilderness.
Fortunately, before he came out, he had prepared a tent, cooking utensils, and rations.
Soon, two black tents appeared on the empty ground thanks to Lee Shi's hard work.
Zhou Zhiruo had already set up a bonfire at the side. The scarlet light from the bonfire shone on her delicate face. It was as if the heaven and earth had added a bit of makeup to it, which was extremely touching.
Lee Shi took out a piece of sliced meat from his luggage. This was what they had bought from the local residents when they were at Pavilion Town.
He then took out some seasonings, such as soy sauce and vinegar, and prepared to cook dinner.
However, his actions came to an abrupt stop, and his face revealed an awkward expression.
Lee Shi knows how to draw, sell insurance,... You just don't know how to cook!
Do you want oil or salt first? With what kind of fire? For how long?
Lee Shi was completely confused and couldn't help but to look at Zhou Zhiruo.
Zhou Zhiruo was stunned for a moment. She didn't know why Lee Shi was looking at her.
Lee Shi immediately covered his face and smiled bitterly. Zhou Zhiruo's reaction did not require a question to know the answer.
Sigh, I knew I brought Yun out.
Helpless, Lee Shi could only take out some dry food and split it with Zhou Zhiruo.
Thus, the two of them sat beside the bonfire and stared at a piece of steak, silently nibbling on the dry rations in their hands, as if they were chewing on wax.
"Zhiruo, why do you look so afraid of me?"
While eating, Lee Shi suddenly thought of this question.
It was because he realized that no matter what happened, Zhou Zhiruo would always keep a certain distance between him and her.
If she didn't ride with him, she wouldn't dare to get close to him.
Zhou Zhiruo stopped chewing and slowly shook her head. She said slowly, "I am not afraid.
Keeping a certain distance from the lord, one could easily observe the lord's surroundings.
When encountering enemies, you can also react in advance and take appropriate measures to deal with them. "
Lee Shi couldn't help but be surprised, he didn't think of such a reason at all.
Excited, he held Zhou Zhiruo's hand and said, "You won't have to leave me that far in the future, understand?"
Zhou Zhiruo subconsciously struggled, but realized that it was useless. She couldn't help but bite her lips and let out a soft "hmm" like a mosquito.
"Then let's sleep in a tent tonight?"
Zhou Zhiruo: "…"
The night had completely darkened, and the open area was surrounded by a gloomy forest. The night wind blew past, causing rustling sounds to be heard in all directions.1
Faintly, beast roars could be heard in the distance. They were beasts that went out to hunt at night!
Normal people would not dare to go camping so casually. They would probably be eaten as food by the wild beasts long ago.
However, among Lee Shi and Zhou Zhiruo, one was at the middle stage of Earth Origin Stage and the other had the strength of Initial Level of Earth Origin Stage.
In this situation, even if it was a Demonic Beast, if it were an intruder, it would only be adding a few more Point Of Holy Origin to Lee Shi.
After the bonfire was extinguished, Zhou Zhiruo gracefully returned to her tent and prepared to rest.
In Lee Shi's tent, he was holding a wild flower with a face full of hesitation.
"To be a bird. Beast or willow? "
