Beast World: The Ferocious God Xiang Liu is So Gentle

Lu Yao: "I've been in the Misty Forest for many days now. Can you take me out to get some sun?"

Xiang Liu looked at Lu Yao with affection: "There is a small hill not far from the Misty Forest. It should be the sunniest there now. I'll take you there."

Xiang Liu carried Lu Yao to the hillside, where it was indeed warm and comfortable.

Lu Yao: "I'd like to wander around here and see if there are any good fruits."

So Xiang Liu took Lu Yao's hand and they strolled down the hillside.

Lu Yao: "Look, there are some bushes in front of us, and they are covered with fruit."

Xiang Liu: "Wait here for me, I'll pick some for you and see if you can eat them."

Before long, Xiang Liu returned with a large handful of yellow fruit.

The fruit is about the size of a palm, like a bottle, oval-shaped, with wing-like longitudinal spines.

Lu Yao took a bite; the inside of the fruit was also yellow, sweet and sour, and tasted pretty good.

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

Lu Yao checked the illustrated guide and explained it to Xiang Liu.

Lu Yao: "This is gardenia, the fruit of which can be used in medicine."

"Its effects are to clear heat and relieve irritability, clear heat and promote diuresis, cool blood and detoxify; when used externally, it reduces swelling and relieves pain."

"It's just that the processing is quite troublesome. You have to remove the fruit stems and impurities, steam them until steam rises or blanch them briefly in boiling water, then dry them and crush them."

Xiang Liu: "Should we clean it and then boil it in water?"

Lu Yao: "Yes, after boiling it, it needs to be dried and then crushed. But we can crush it when we need to use it."

Xiang Liu: "It's not troublesome at all. I'll pick them all back and cook and dry them this afternoon."

So Xiangliu was in charge of picking the fruit, and Lu Yao was in charge of cleaning the fruit and putting it into a bag.

Soon, all the gardenia fruits on the bushes were picked.

Xiang Liu: "Wait for me here. I'll go ahead and hunt some game. I'll cook it for you tonight."

Lu Yao continued tidying up the fruit on the ground, and soon Xiang Liu returned carrying two wild rabbits.

Lu Yao: "Put the wild rabbit into my spatial storage!"

Xiang Liu noticed the two wild rabbits were still on the ground and asked, "What happened?"

Lu Yao: "It's probably because the rabbit is still alive, so we can't put it in!"

Xiang Liu suffocated the two rabbits: "Try again!"

This time, the rabbit was successfully put back into the space.

After packing everything up, Xiang Liu carried Lu Yao back to the cave in the Misty Forest.

After the two cooked the gardenia fruit and left it to dry at the entrance of the cave, Xiang Liu began to process the rabbit meat.

It quickly grew dark. Xiang Liu placed the roasted rabbit meat on the table, where Lu Yao was already waiting.

Xiang Liu: "You must be starving! Eat up!"

Lu Yao tore off a piece of rabbit meat, but it burned her so badly that she quickly pulled her hand back.

Xiang Liu quickly took Lu Yao's hand and blew on it, saying with concern, "I'm sorry, I overlooked that. Your skin is too delicate. I should have peeled it for you."

Lu Yao: "It's okay, it doesn't hurt at all. I was just too anxious."

So Xiang Liu started to tear the rabbit meat into strips and put them on Lu Yao's plate.

Lu Yao picked up the rabbit meat with her chopsticks and ate it with relish.

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

Xiang Liu roasted two rabbits, but Lu Yao was full after eating less than half of one.

Lu Yao: "I can't eat anymore, you can eat the rest!"

After Xiang Liu finished eating the remaining half of the rabbit meat, he found a few leaves, wrapped the whole rabbit meat up, and handed it to Lu Yao.

Xiang Liu: "Let's put the whole rabbit in the space. When you're hungry, you can heat it up and eat it anytime, so you won't be hungry for so long like today."

Lu Yao obediently put the rabbit meat into her spatial storage.

Xiang Liu: "Let's get some rest!"

Lu Yao: "You're not planning to sneak out hunting after I fall asleep again, are you?"

Xiang Liu: "No, I just saw that you were too tired this afternoon and wanted you to rest early. You have a baby in your belly, so it must be very hard for you."

Lu Yao: "Then you should rest well and not go hunting so early. I can go hunting with you and find some medicinal herbs while we're at it."

Xiang Liu: "Hunting is too dangerous, but I will take you out to find medicinal herbs during the day."

Upon hearing Xiang Liu's promise, Lu Yao closed her eyes and quickly fell asleep.
