Beast World: The Ferocious God Xiang Liu is So Gentle

Xiang Liu: "I'm going hunting in a more distant place this afternoon, so I won't be taking you with me. Can you get some rest?"

Lu Yao stood up and asked, "Are there no prey in the Misty Forest?"

Xiang Liu: "We can hunt anytime in the forest. I want to go to a more distant place and find you more kinds of food."

Lu Yao: "When will you be back?"

Xiang Liu: "I'll definitely be back before evening."

Lu Yao: "Then you should rest for a while before setting off!"

Xiang Liu hugged Lu Yao and lay down: "I'll leave after I've put you to sleep. Close your eyes and go to sleep!"

After Lu Yao fell asleep, Xiang Liu tiptoed out of the cave.

After waking up in the afternoon, Lu Yao went to the cave entrance to sort out the medicinal herbs that were drying.

As expected, Xiang Liu returned in the evening.

Xiang Liu threw a white fox into the cave entrance and then handed Lu Yao a large bundle of plants.

This plant has oval leaves and spherical, glossy, dark purple fruits, about the size of a Kyoho grape.

Xiang Liu: "I found this fruit while I was catching foxes. See if you can eat it."

Lu Yao picked one, wiped it with her hand, and put it in her mouth to taste: "Sweet and sour, refreshing, really delicious."

System notification: "Congratulations, host, you have obtained Longkui. You are rewarded with one gold coin."

Lu Yao consulted some illustrated guides and said to Xiang Liu, "This is black nightshade. The whole plant can be used as medicine. It can disperse blood stasis, reduce swelling, clear heat, and detoxify."

"After picking the fruit, don't waste the rest. Chop it up, dry it in the sun, and store it away. It can be used to treat illnesses."

Xiang Liu: "My Yao Yao is really amazing, she knows everything."

Lu Yao looked at the fox at the entrance of the cave: "Are we going to eat it tonight?"

Xiang Liu: "Don't you want to eat?"

Lu Yao: "I just think it looks so pretty that I can't bear to eat it."

Xiang Liu: "Even if you don't eat it, it won't escape death. This hide is dense and warm, I plan to make a quilt for you during the cold season."

Lu Yao: "This fox is quite large; it's definitely big enough to make a mattress."

Xiang Liu: "You should go back to the cave quickly. I'm about to kill a fox. If you see it, you probably won't be able to eat it."

Lu Yao knew that resources were scarce in the beast world, and there was no reason to give up the food that had been obtained with great difficulty. If she wanted to live well with Xiang Liu, she couldn't be a saint.

So Lu Yao said, "Bring this bundle of nightshade in. I'll pick the fruit and put it in my spatial storage to eat later."

Xiang Liu placed Long Kui on the table: "Sit down and take your time. I'll clean up the table in a bit."

After Lu Yao had collected all the black nightshade fruits, Xiang Liu went into the cave to start roasting meat.

Lu Yao was too exhausted to move Long Kui from the table, so she went back to bed to rest.

Xiang Liu placed the meat on the fire and then began to clear the table.

Xiang Liu: "There are still some fruits left. I'll wash them for you, and you can have them with the roast meat tonight."

Lu Yao: "Okay!"

Dinner was ready. Xiang Liu picked up a piece of roasted meat and fed it to Lu Yao, asking, "Do you like it?"

System notification: "Congratulations, host, you have obtained fox meat. You are rewarded with one gold coin."

Lu Yao took a bite: "It's delicious, but a bit greasy."

So he picked up a fruit and ate it.

Xiang Liu: "I'll find you other prey tomorrow. The main purpose of this fox is for its fur to get through the winter. It's okay if you don't like to eat it."

Lu Yao popped a black nightshade fruit into Xiang Liu's mouth: "Doesn't this fruit taste good?"

Xiang Liu: "It's delicious. I'll go pick some more for you tomorrow."

After dinner, Xiang Liu used his sharp fingernails to cut the black nightshade into small pieces, preparing to place them at the entrance of the cave to dry the next day.

Lu Yao: "You always use your fingernails, it's too inconvenient. Let's make a bone knife tomorrow."

Xiang Liu: "How do you make a bone knife?"

Lu Yao: "It's about sharpening animal bones to the point where they're as sharp as your fingernails, so you can use them to cut things."

Xiang Liu: "No need to wait until tomorrow, I'll pick out a fox bone and try making one in a bit."

After Xiang Liu finished cutting the black nightshade, he went to the cave entrance and found a few bones for Lu Yao to choose from. After Lu Yao made her selections, Xiang Liu began to polish them.

Before long, a bone knife was sharpened.

Lu Yao: "Take out a piece of meat and let me test the knife."

Xiang Liu placed the fox meat from outside into a wooden bucket and brought it in.

Lu Yao took the bone knife, picked up a piece of meat, and started slicing.

System notification: "Congratulations, host, you have obtained the bone knife. You are rewarded with one gold coin."

Xiang Liu: "Be careful, it's very sharp, don't hurt your hand."

Lu Yao's goal was to obtain gold coins. Now that she had the gold coins, there was no need to continue cutting meat, so she handed the bone knife to Xiang Liu.

After Xiang Liu took the knife, he said, "It's getting late. Put this bucket of meat into your spatial storage and let's rest!"

Lu Yao put the whole bucket of meat into her spatial storage, and then went back to bed with Xiang Liu to rest.
