"Mile, bring Ono to pick up some branches, and I'll grill these fish for you to eat."

Ari had a gentle smile on his face, "My craft is not bad."

“It is super delicious!”

Mayme said.

Meimu had eaten Ari's grilled fish before, and she had already been deeply captured by Ari's excellent cooking skills.

Ahri's grilled fish is better than any fish dish in any restaurant in Ionia.

Of course, this does not mean that Ahri's cooking skills are very good, but that the Ionian people's handling and cooking of fish is really too backward.

Ari took care of the fish, and then began to salt the inner cavity.Sprinkle some simple seasonings and spread a vegetable oil evenly on the fish. After finishing these, Mi Lai and Ono also came back.

Lilia set up the grill and lit the fire.

Ari puts the fish on sticks and puts them on the grill, turning them over from time to time and adding some seasonings.

"Zizzi-"

The faint aroma overflowed, the fish was grilled until golden, and the oil on the skin sizzled.A few children couldn't help but began to swallow their saliva, ready to move...

Chapter 122 The Consciousness of Death

The forest is extremely quiet at night, and the light of the bonfire warms the Onkuwo villagers who fled their hometown.

Lilia gave the grilled fish to several children first, and the children happily ate it.

"hot…"

A child withdrew his mouth as soon as he took a bite.

but.

Quickly started eating again.

"Are you okay?"

The woman holding him asked with concern.

"No...it's okay. Mom, this fish is delicious, you can eat some too." The child handed the fish to the woman.

During the rush during this period, everyone ate very casually.

and.

Many people are in a state of starvation.

"Mom is not hungry, you eat..." The woman smiled gently, shook her head, and returned the fish to the child.

"Here... there are many more here."

Lilia took out a freshly grilled fish and gave it to the woman.It's late at night now, and they only eat two meals a day.I eat one meal every morning, and I don’t eat at noon, but now it’s the second meal.

So Lilia knew that the woman was just lying to the child.

"thanks…"

The woman took the fish and ate it with big mouthfuls.She said contentedly, "It smells so good!"

The bonfire drove away mosquitoes and dispelled the damp cold at night.

The people who followed Ari and the others were all eating the delicious grilled fish Ari baked, and everyone felt a little warmth and happiness for a short time.

But this kind of happiness will be very short-lived. After sleeping late at night and waking up the next day, everyone still has to face the arduous journey, walking in the steep mountains, enduring the pain from the worn out soles, and Enduring the sore body and the limit of physical strength.

The few old people who moved with Ari and the others seemed to be almost unable to walk now.

Two have died before.

Even though Ari wanted these people to go to Navoli alive, Ari knew that it was impossible.

There will always be people dying along the way.

of course.

The people of Onkuwo, the soldiers, Irelia, Maym, everyone knew this clearly.

When they fled to the deep mountains, everyone was already prepared to die!

……

After everyone was full, they went to sleep satisfied.

the next day.

With the rising of the sun, everyone woke up, and everyone embarked on the journey north again.

Time is like a fleeting moment.

In a blink of an eye, summer is coming to an end, and everyone has been walking in the deep mountains for nearly 3 months. The 10 old people have all disappeared in the team now.Among the five children, two also died of illness on the way.

Of the 24 women, one fell to his death from a steep cliff, another woman disappeared suddenly on the way, one chose to stay on the way, and five died of illness.Today, 16 of these women survived, including children, a total of 19.

"Everyone, rest where you are."

Ari looked up at the sunset in the sky, the sun was about to set, and as usual, Ari asked everyone to rest.Then take Lilia to find food and fresh water, while Irelia and Mayme stay to protect these people.

"... Another day has passed, and it is already the 91st day."

Mi Lai leaned against a tree and sat down with difficulty, her legs were already sore and almost numb.

"Sister Millai, are you alright?"

Ono asked.

"Ah."

Mi Lai patted Ono's head, "I'm fine, Ono is really good, just like an adult."

Mi Lai looked down at his legs. There were traces of blood oozing from the shoes on the soles of his feet. The trousers on his calf were also scratched by thorns, revealing his calf covered with long bright red wounds. Most of the wounds had already healed. Scabs, but when walking every day, many new wounds will be added. Walking in the deep mountains is really too difficult.

Ono also has a lot of scars on her body, but she looks in better condition than Mi Lai.

Obviously there is only Liu Xia, but Ono's wandering life has made her develop a strong mind since she was a child.

As a little girl, she could die at any time while wandering, and she was used to this kind of life.

As long as you are still alive, no matter how painful you are, you should face it with a normal heart, so that the life that may end at any time can be as easy and happy as possible.

……

Ari and Lilia searched for this suitable food in the forest together. Lilia pocketed her clothes and held a bunch of wild fruits.

Ari has not yet found any animals to hunt.

Ari recalled what happened not long ago. One morning half a month ago, Ari and the others woke up as usual.

The sun was shining brightly that day and the weather was fine.

An old man gazes at the morning sun with a peaceful smile and says she is tired.

Lilia said to carry her, the old man shook his head, thanked Lilia, and then thanked all the people in the camp. Cuvo.

"Let's go, I can't walk anymore. Let me watch the sunrise here, don't force me to take me, this will only delay everyone's time. Our hometown has been occupied, but Ionia still has Hope, I am too old to protect Ionia, so I can only rely on you young people."

The old man said so at the time.

When she finished speaking, the remaining old people also expressed their desire to stay and watch the sunrise.

Ari and the others persuaded for a long time.

but.

The old people are very sensible and what they say is very clear. They don't want to delay everyone's trip anymore.

Ari and the others had no choice but to leave the old people behind.

But at that time, a young woman also chose to stay, she said she would stay to take care of some old people.

"Ari, what are you thinking?"

Lilia asked.

"It's nothing." Ahri came back to her senses, she didn't want to tell Lilia what she was thinking.

Ahri wants as many people as possible to live.

but.

the reality is cruel.

Those old people who stayed at that time, and the woman who took care of them, are probably dead now.

The only consolation is that they are the ending of their own choice.

and.

All readily accepted.

When a person calmly accepts the imminent death, then death is not terrible.

This is better than staying in Onkuwo and being killed.

Ari and Lilia walked in the forest and climbed a steep hillside. Ari and Lilia came to a weedy field with a wide view. There are no dense trees here, but only slanting out. Flat cliffs.

Ari walked to the edge of the cliff, and he could see the scene in the distance, and the goshawks were circling and chirping in the sky.

The mountains are rolling and majestic.

At the bottom of the mountain, there are neat farmlands, villages, and giant crustacean like hills...

Chapter 123 The Village of Navoli

Gazing at the human settlements in the distance, Ahri and Lilia were extremely excited.

During the more than three months spent in the forest, Ari and the others have never seen the village outside.Occasionally meeting people led by other soldiers, everyone hurriedly said goodbye and went their separate ways.

"Ari, it's a human village... Shall we go down and have a look? But it looks far away."

Lilia looked at Ahri and said to her.

Of course Ari knows the reason why Wangshan runs to death, not to mention they are still on the top of the mountain now.

Although the villages in the distance can be seen.

but.

If you walk there with people, it may take several days to get there.

"Let's find food for now."

Ari withdrew his gaze, "Let's discuss with Arielia and the others first, and ask everyone to wait on the mountain. The two of us can go there first to confirm the exact location."

"Is Ahri worried that this is not Navoli?"

"Ah."

Ari nodded, "If it wasn't for the villages in Navoli, we would have to take the people there and return. The people's physical strength is already reaching their limits, so we can't let them take detours."

The people who followed Ari and the others, even young women, were almost unable to hold on.

When I walk every day, my body hurts unbearably.

feet are full of blood

trace.

In this case, if you let the people spend a few days, go to the wrong place.This will undoubtedly bring a very heavy burden to the people, and it will also discourage the enthusiasm of the people.

"Well, Ahri is really caring."

There was a slight smile on Lilia's face, her voice was soft, and Ahri's appearance was reflected in her lavender pupils.

Ari took Lilia to look for food, and finally found a mountain deer in the forest. Ari killed the deer and served it as everyone's dinner today.The roasted wild deer meat was tender and the skin was crispy. After everyone finished eating, they ate some wild fruits brought by Lilia, which relieved their hunger.

"Lilia and I saw a village today."

Ali said.
