Ordinary observers in fast time travel

With a "splash," a huge splash suddenly erupted from the lake as a dragon burst forth from the water. It circled once in the air, then abruptly descended and lay down on the lakeshore.

"Ugh~"

"Get out of here, don't vomit on me."

"Ugh~" Shi Jia vomited while rolling his eyes, and at the same time nimbly got off the dragon's body. The moment his feet touched the ground, he felt that he had finally survived.

Shi Jia straightened himself up, smiled and said to the Flood Dragon King, "Thank you, Flood Dragon King! Farewell, may we meet again someday!"

The Flood Dragon King snorted coldly, flew back into the sky, and then crashed heavily into the water, splashing huge sprays of water everywhere.

Shi Jia silently dodged the splashing water, "What a temper."

Shi Jia shook his head and looked around. The corpses of the tiger and the snake were nowhere to be seen, only a mound of sand like ants had been pushing up. There was no trace of the monstrous beasts around. The trees were still lush, but the path he had cleared was also gone.

He thought about it and decided to go back the way he came.

According to the Dragon King, four people escaped. He was worried about running into them, as it would be difficult to explain how he had survived.

It's best not to expose the saplings for now.

The sapling remained perched on his head, holding the materialized disposable longsword in its hand, before plunging headlong into the dense forest.

This time, he finally confirmed the sapling's special nature. As long as the sapling was there, the mutated plants would not attack him at all, and would even help him kill the turbid beasts.

Upon confirming this fact, a surge of joy welled up within me.

Shi Jia rolled her eyes. "Sun Yu, don't be so greedy. When I leave this world, I will definitely take the sapling with me."

Moreover, because of Sun Yu's unauthorized actions, Shi Jia's fate is no longer in his own hands.

Hmph, insatiable greed will only harm you.

Not everyone has the ability to wield great power. She was certain that even if Sun Yu possessed the sapling, he was destined not to live long.

Wouldn't it be better to just honestly be a pie-in-the-sky figure?
Shi Jia ignored the sudden surge of anger, hatred, and despair, and continued to complain expressionlessly.

What she doesn't know now is that, because of the little system's kindness, her fate is no longer up to her.

He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but the dense forest in front of him seemed even denser than it had been a few days ago. He had to change his thirteen longswords before he left the forest, which was two more than when he entered.

Emerging from the dense forest, one is greeted by reeds as tall as a person, and flat-billed ducks roaming among the grass.

"Huh? Did I take the wrong path?" He looked around and vaguely saw the water through the dense reeds. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew in, carrying the smell of water, which startled the ducks that were foraging in the water. "Splash, splash!"

The flat-billed duck flapped its wings, splashing up a series of water droplets.

The wind was quite strong, bending many reeds. Shi Jia, with her sharp eyes, spotted nests of wild duck eggs in the grass.

"Gurgle~" Shi Jia, who had been eating pies for several days, rubbed his stomach, then took out his drawing board and materialized a duck catcher.

Although his manifestations can only last for a few tens of minutes to an hour, the advantage is that he can manifest whatever he wants.

After a burst of colorful light, a large fishing net with a long wooden handle appeared in his hand.

Shi Jia looked at the fishing net in his hand and rushed excitedly into the bushes.

"quack!"

"Wow!"

"Puff puff!"

"Hehe, so fat! More, more!"

The scorching sun overhead silently slanted westward, the scorching temperature gradually decreased, and the lake water turned golden.

After falling into the rice bin, cough cough, the people in the duck flock finally carried a plump flat-billed duck to the open space by the lake, where various disposable kitchen utensils had already been set up.

"Huh, why don't I have any memory of cooking?" Shi Jia frowned. "Sun Yu, you can't cook?"

If Sun Yu, who was so angry he fainted, heard what she said, he'd probably roll his eyes. It's perfectly normal not to know how to cook.

In the art world, besides professional chefs, who can cook? Do you think the ingredients are just wild grass from the black market? You can have as much as you want.

You can't eat things from the Black Zone, didn't you know? If you're not afraid of being corrupted by the impure energy and turning into a vile beast, then go ahead and try it!
Of course, this excludes Shi Jia, who possesses purification abilities.

The plump duck in his hand had already been purified by him. Not only that, but one of her mustard seed bags also contained more than a dozen purified flat-billed ducks.

Shi Jia had read a lot of information about cooking in the last world. She also knew many ways to cook duck.

But he's a complete kitchen idiot!

However, that was in his past life. He might have a real talent for cooking in this one! After all, Sun Yu's dream is to be a chef, and he even materialized a pie...

Shi Jiayue thought about it more and more and felt that he was a culinary genius!
With this in mind, he couldn't wait to start showing off his skills.

"Hurry up, we're almost out of the dark zone." A voice came from the direction of the dense forest. Shi Jia subconsciously stood up and looked over, only to meet a pair of tired eyes.

"Um, hello everyone." Shi Jia raised her hand to greet them, but forgot that she was still holding a flat-billed duck in her hand.

The man frowned, nodded, but his eyes darted around, searching for someone. "Alone?"

"Yes, it's just me." Shi Jia thought the other person was talking to him, so he quickly replied.

The man was taken aback, and twitched the corners of his mouth, but he forgot that he was wearing a mask, only his eyes were visible.

"Brother Yun, hurry up, don't delay treating A-Yue." A voice came from behind him. Shi Jia turned his head and saw three more people, no, four people, and one person was being carried on someone's back.

Yunyan Shijia nodded and didn't delay any longer.

Distracted by this, Shi Jia lost all interest in cooking. She stuffed the flat-billed duck into a mustard bag, tossed aside a pile of kitchen utensils, and turned to leave.

Well, it's just a bunch of disposable items. You can just throw them away without worrying about causing environmental pollution. They'll disappear in an hour at most.

"Brother Cang, that guy was really strange. He was all alone in the dark zone so late at night."

"I think so too. Did you see that? It looks like he's about to eat the turbid beast."

The two people at the back of the group were whispering to each other.

Yunyan, who was at the front, rolled his eyes. "Didn't you two see someone following behind you?" Isn't this considered talking behind someone's back?

Canglong and Hongtian froze and turned around to look.

Shi Jia smiled at them and said, "Hey, hello everyone!"

"Why are you following us?" Hong Tian said with dissatisfaction.

"You're right, it's getting late. I was just worried about the danger," Shi Jia said kindly. He felt this group was quite nice, at least better than Lu Tianheng's group.

"Don't worry, I'm just leaving the Black Zone with you. You won't mind, will you?" Shi Jia said, then suddenly felt a little strange.

"Of course I mind!" Hong Tian said unhappily. "Who knows if you're up to something bad!"

Shi Jia was a little embarrassed. "Um, I'm not a bad person."

"Pshaw, have you ever seen a bad person say they're a bad person?" Hong Tian's mouth sounded like it was coated with poison.

"Ah Tian, ​​shut up." Even Canglong couldn't stand it anymore. The young man hadn't done anything, just said one sentence, and this guy was acting like his tail had been stepped on.

"You can come if you want," Yunyan said, while gesturing for everyone to speed up.

Hong Tian was about to say something when Cang Long stopped him.

Shi Jia was a little embarrassed, his face flushed. He really didn't mean anything by it; he just felt safer with someone else gone.

It was quite a distance from the security gate of Red Eighth District. It took Shi Jia four hours to walk from sunset to moonrise before he finally returned to the security gate.

After leaving the reed area, Yunyan and his group left by car.

Shi Jia watched the car speed away and really wanted to draw one too, but perhaps because he didn't understand the workings of a car, he couldn't conjure it up at all. (End of Chapter)
