Ever since the end of the cold war between Li Mingsheng and Yanli, or to be more precise, since Yanli unilaterally ended the cold war, the two have become inseparable like before, hunting and gathering together, and in the midst of their busy schedule, they have been looking for suitable exotic beasts to improve their strength.

They entered Wugui Mountain twice on the way, but they did not dare to go deep into it. They just swept along the edge. After all this time of hard work, Li Mingsheng had reached the late stage of a seven-star orc warrior, and Yanli had reached the late stage of a six-star orc warrior, which was about to break through.

This was also due to the rich resources of Wugui Mountain. There were many five-star exotic beasts, and they swept up a lot of exotic beast essences.

"The sky seems to be changing." Li Mingsheng looked at the gray sky early in the morning, as if a storm was brewing.

"Then let's dig more roots when we go today, hunt more exotic animals, and prepare more food for a few days." Yanli looked at the sky with the same worry.

When it rained or the weather was bad, they usually stayed in the cave. Fortunately, they had enough food. The meat of the exotic beasts they had brought back before was marinated by Li Mingsheng and smoked with firewood into bacon, which was hung in a ventilated place.

In the past, when it rained, we either ate leftover exotic beast meat or cut some bacon to cook.

Yanli quite likes this bacon. Although it has a strange taste, he can accept it. Besides, bacon also has a unique meaty aroma and is crispy and delicious.

Li Mingsheng: "Okay, let's dig more later. Let's set off now before it rains!"

There wasn't much dan root left at home, just enough for one or two meals. The dan root was easy to find in Wugui Mountain, and there was still a lot of it where they had been digging.

This thing is a herbaceous plant. There are a lot of fruits under the vine. The edible ones are the fruits grown in the soil. They are generally oval in shape with black skin.

This thing can only be eaten after being cooked. It is hard when raw, and becomes soft after being cooked. It tastes slightly sweet and powdery, just like a combination of taro and sweet potato in the previous life.

When they arrived at the place, they started digging along the traces they had dug before. Fortunately, the soil in the environment where the roots of the pond grow is soft, and soon the two of them dug four large backpacks full of it. Seeing that these were enough for the two of them to eat for a month or two, Li Mingsheng signaled Yanli to stop working and go hunt some exotic beasts.

The sky was getting darker and darker. By the time Li Mingsheng and his companion had hunted two four-star long-tusked beasts, two three-star fire bull beasts, and several cuckoo chickens, the sky had become so dark that it seemed as if night was about to fall.

"That's enough, go back first!"

Li Mingsheng looked at the strange weather and couldn't help but feel worried. Although it had rained heavily before, it was never like this.

He had never experienced this feeling before a storm in his memory.

The two men hurriedly loaded the cart and went back with today's harvest. As soon as they entered the cave, before they even put down their things, it started to rain heavily outside.

The raindrops hit the trees outside the cave, making crackling sounds, which was very scary.

Li Mingsheng checked every room in the cave and felt relieved only after seeing that there was no leak anywhere.

Looking at the piles of firewood in the kitchen, several large stone vats had been filled with water in the morning, the corridor was hung with bacon from exotic animals, and they also collected a lot of sprouts.

There was water, firewood, meat and vegetables. Li Mingsheng checked them one by one before he felt relieved.

"Look at the rain, it seems like it won't stop easily!" Their prey had not yet been dealt with, so Li Mingsheng and Yanli had no choice but to deal with it on a small platform at the entrance of the cave.

The upper half of this small platform is a large stone, which completely covers the area and forms a natural terrace, a place that can shelter from wind and rain. The two of them usually like to come here to enjoy the cool air on summer nights. They put two simple stools, sit opposite each other, and have a glass of honey water, which is quite comfortable.

Back to the present, because of the heavy rain, Li Mingsheng could not go to the stream to deal with the strange beast and could only deal with it at the entrance of the cave. They dug out the internal organs, peeled off the skin, and threw it away with the internal organs.

Li Mingsheng took a big leaf and covered his head with it, then walked to the place where they handled domestic waste and buried the internal organs.

Because of the rain, they didn't know when the animal skins could be processed for tanning, and they were no longer short of animal skins, so they just threw them away together.

When he came back, Li Mingsheng was already soaked. It is not so easy to block the heavy rain.

Yanli was afraid that Li Mingsheng would get sick, so he asked him to change his clothes first. He went into the kitchen, lit a fire, and cooked a big pot of ginger soup. He stared at Li Mingsheng and drank it all.

That night, taking advantage of the wind and rain, we had a fire buffalo hotpot. The base of the pot was made from fire buffalo bones, with oil refined from the fire buffalo, and seasonings such as red fruit. The base of the pot looked red and smelled fragrant and spicy.

It’s a replica of beef hotpot with a spicy beef oil base!

The heavy rain continued for four days in a row and showed no sign of stopping. Instead, it became increasingly severe.

Li Mingsheng looked at the accumulated water at the entrance of the cave with some worry. Fortunately, on the second day of heavy rain, he saw that the rain was not abating, so he and Yanli braved the rain to dig out the pure spirit grass that had been planted beside the cave entrance with their roots, took a few unused wooden troughs, dug some soil and planted them.

Both of them were soaked like drowned rats. They went back and boiled a large pot of ginger water. After drinking it, they felt better.

"Look at the rain, it's going to continue." Li Mingsheng looked outside the cave worriedly. The terrain here is relatively high, but if it continues like this, a bad natural disaster might occur.

Sure enough, it rained heavily for more than half a month. At the beginning, they relied on the high terrain of the cave and went out to the platform from time to time to take a look.

Later, the water accumulated deeper and deeper, forming a flood, which continued to uproot trees. From time to time, they could see the figures of strange beasts struggling in the water through the cave entrance, and countless trees were uprooted.

The ochre-colored flood swept across the outskirts of Wugui Mountain with great force.

An increasingly large mountain torrent was rushing down in front of them. Li Ming, who was behind, was afraid of accidentally falling into the flood, so he took a big stone and roughly blocked it from the inside, blocking the lower half of the cave entrance.

The floodwaters did not enter the caves but were blocked.

In the vast ocean outside the cave, the heavy rain stopped and Li Mingsheng breathed a sigh of relief. If it continued like this, their cave would inevitably be flooded no matter how high the terrain was.

Days of exposure to the sun dried up the water on the ground. Li Mingsheng looked at the corpses of strange beasts scattered on the ground in the high temperature and his heart became tense again.

With so many corpses and the high temperature, it would easily cause an epidemic if no one dealt with the bodies.

Generally speaking, the horror after a disaster is the most terrifying. Killing people invisibly is more torturous than facing the suffering directly.

Liming was afraid that this would happen, so he and Yanli dealt with the corpses around the cave and dug a pit to bury them.

Moreover, they did not go hunting these days and ate the bacon they preserved, because there were carcasses everywhere and who knew whether the strange beasts had eaten the carcasses.
