But they have no choice. Time is the most precious thing to them. Even the time used for rest needs to be used more rationally.
Fortunately, they can still hold on.
After an unknown amount of time, when the two arrived at the seabuckthorn tree standing in the distance, the short woman almost fell down.
Fortunately, she managed to hold on to the ground before her face was about to hit the ground.
"Girunini, are you okay?" Callidora hurried to help her.
"Fortunately, I'm just a little too tired," said the short woman called Jilunini, turned around and sat down against the sea buckthorn tree, "Well, this is much better..."
"Phew, it's okay," Callidora breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and sat next to her.
"Ha, it's really embarrassing. I collapsed from exhaustion before you did," Jilunini muttered. "It's a good thing that I'm still a warrior. Is this the disadvantage of having short legs..."
"What are you talking about? Without you, I don't know if I would still be alive now," Callidora rubbed her head and whispered, "Now it's my turn to take care of you."
After saying that, she raised the wand in her hand and lightly tapped the tree behind her.
Soon, like feathers falling, bunches of wild grape-like fruits fell one after another.
This is sea buckthorn, which is almost the only food that can be found in this desert.
It is rich in many vitamins, a certain amount of sugar, and there are often a bunch of them on one tree.
just the taste...
"Ugh, bah..." Jilunini spit out the sea buckthorn she just put in her mouth into her hand, stuck out her tongue, and murmured, "It's so sour, sour and astringent..."
After saying that, she stuffed the sea buckthorn that she had spat into her hand back into her mouth.
This is a bone burial desert. No matter how unpalatable the food is, it is still a precious survival resource and cannot be wasted.
Callidora felt really distressed seeing her like this.
She took out the water bag from under her robe and looked at it. Well, thinking about it carefully, she seemed to have looked at it so many times that she had already drank all the water in it.
"Girunini, give me your water bag, too," Callidora stretched out her hand.
"Oh," Jilunini took out an equally shriveled water bag from under her robe and handed it over.
Callidora opened both water bags, then picked up the wand and softly recited a spell.
Gradually, as the mantra was chanted, a small group of water droplets appeared in the air, and then grew bigger and bigger, and finally turned into a transparent water ball the size of a basketball.
This is the magic that condenses the water element, and it is almost the only source of drinking water for the two of them.
It's just that this desert is too dry and the water vapor is extremely scarce. Often, Callidora can only condense such a ball of water next to the trees.
She waved her wand and carefully poured all the water into their water bags.
"Here, let's drink and eat at the same time," Callidora handed a water bag to Jilunini, "Let's rest longer, and we should be able to drink water again later."
"Really? That's great," a smile finally appeared on Jilunini's face.
In a place like this, being able to drink a whole bag of water happily would be an extremely happy thing.
Callidora sighed softly, picked up her water bag and took a sip.
Then, she also took a small bunch of sea buckthorn fruit and put it into her mouth. She endured the sourness and began to chew slowly.
While chewing, she took out a small disc.
It was an ancient disk that looked like the cover of something.
Callidora gently touched the disk, and then thought that there was some magic in it.
The disk lit up.
But it only lit up for a moment, and then flickered dark again.
"Isn't it still possible?" Callidora thought in disappointment, leaning on the trunk of the seabuckthorn tree. "Went, are you okay now..."
"You who don't know magic, don't die of thirst in this desert..."

"Bear meat and mushroom soup, bear meat roasted with potatoes, stir-fried shredded bear meat with wild vegetables, roasted bear meat with wild pepper, and stir-fried wild vegetables. There are four dishes and one soup in total. Please enjoy it." Liu Ji opened his hands and showed off a cup full of them. The fruits of labor on the table were introduced to the three of them with a smile on their faces.
Of course, they just don’t understand it at all.
But this is not critical, the picture is just a sense of ceremony.
"Here, this kid is obviously a potato, but his craftsmanship is quite good." Mervent looked at the dishes on the table in surprise, "The presentation is almost as good as the dishes made by Carly."
"Can't you remove the phrase 'it's obviously a potato'?" Yayin glanced at him with a subtle expression, and then casually swatted back Osa's secretly extended hand.
Ao Sa scratched his head in frustration, looked at the chopsticks in Yain's hand, sighed, picked up the chopsticks in front of him, and began to try to learn how to use them.
There is no other way. If you don’t learn, you won’t be able to work.
They had lived in the desert for so many days by eating sour fruits, and he was not willing to stand by and watch when they finally saw such a rich table of food.
And as Yayin said, as an elite boxer who is proficient in boxing, palm, fingering and grappling, his finger flexibility is much higher than that of ordinary people. It is not difficult for him to learn to use chopsticks.
In the same way, the same goes for the swordsman Mo Wente.
Soon, the two brothers mastered this new tableware, and then they started to feast to their heart's content.
Food culture is a very complex thing. Every place in the world has its own food culture, and its causes are often affected by many, many factors. Therefore, the food culture of different regions is somewhat different.
The greater the regional differences, the greater the differences.
As for changing the world directly...
Anyway, neither Mowente nor Aosa had ever eaten dishes made with this cooking method before.
Of course, due to limited conditions and materials, any takeaway restaurant might have tasted better than this in Liu Ji's previous life.
But for those who have just survived a hard life for two days, this is simply the most delicious delicacy.
The same goes for Liu Ji.
He hadn't eaten in how many years. He often couldn't help but take a few bites when he was preparing the dishes. Now he could eat without hesitation. Naturally, he wasn't polite.
Moreover, at this table, he is the most sophisticated in terms of experience and skills in using chopsticks. It would be a bit embarrassing if he could not compete with others for the meat at this meal.
In a hurry, in just 10 minutes, the four people cleaned up the generous portion of four dishes and one soup, not even a bit of soup base was left.
"Ha... I feel good," Ao Sa let out a sigh of relief, slumped down on the chair, and rubbed his slightly bloated belly contentedly, "This brother's craftsmanship is really good. It seems that we don't have to worry about eating Yain in the future. Dark cooking.”
"I'm really sorry that I can only cook dark dishes," Yayin's mouth twitched, "On the other hand, there are two people who only know how to bake besides boiling. I don't know where they can find the confidence to tell others?"
"Hey, I didn't tell you, don't take me with you," Mowente protested, knocking on the table.
Liu Ji's eyes were filled with envy as he watched the three of them arguing with each other.
They were all eating at the same table, but he was the only one who couldn't understand what others were saying, so he felt like he should be at the bottom of the table.
It's hard.
"Sure enough, we still have to learn the language first..." Liu Ji looked at Yayin, wanting to express his desire to study hard, but after much thought, he didn't know how to express it.
But soon, Liu Ji found that his entanglement was unnecessary.
There was no need for him to say anything, Yayin had already scheduled his courses to a full schedule.
When he saw the densely packed mantras that needed to be recited, Liu Ji felt as if he had returned to his previous life and the difficult time when he was preparing for the CET-[-] and CET-[-] exams.
17. It’s a stone, but not quite
Spells are a very magical thing.
As long as you know the pronunciation and keep chanting it, you will quickly understand its meaning.
This kind of understanding comes from the inside out, from the heart, so after understanding, you can naturally write down the corresponding mantras.
Liu Ji used to be most afraid of memorizing things. Whether it was English words or geographical maps, it was his nightmare when he was a student.
Therefore, when he looked at the thick pages of "Assignment of the Day", he was actually in despair.
However, when he really started learning word for word, he didn't feel tired at all.
The whole time, I just sat on the crisp grass with Yayin, blowing the breeze, bathing in the sun, and then reciting the difficult syllables word by word.
The only fly in the ointment...
Well, that was probably because his right hand was still tied to a wooden pole, with his index finger pointing to the sky.
Not far away, Mowente was busy with some carpentry work.
Although they had built a house yesterday, they had only built a house. Yesterday, the three of them found some cypress leaves and spread them on the floor, and then went to sleep.
Yesterday, Yayin's little familiars had processed the entire bear skin, and now it was stretched and placed on the drying rack to dry. After it is completely dried, the warm fur can be used as a mattress. .
Therefore, Mowente planned to make a simple wooden bed first, and then cover it with bear skins, so that he would not have to sleep on the floor.
Osa, on the other hand, went out to look for food in the woods.
Although they owned a large piece of quick-frozen bear meat, eating only meat would be too monotonous, so they also needed to collect some roots, mushrooms, wild vegetables and the like.
If you are lucky, you can also pick some ripe wild fruits.
The ingredients Liu Ji used to make breakfast were the ones Ao Sa went out to find yesterday.
Everyone was doing their own thing. When the scorching sun hit them, Liu Ji realized that the whole morning had passed before he knew it.
"Lunch..." Liu Ji murmured subconsciously.
"Are you hungry?" Yayin asked.
"A little...huh?" Liu Ji was stunned, and he suddenly realized something was wrong.
Were they having a conversation just now?
It's puzzling that he just... Oh, yes, he really seemed to have said the words in a spell just now.
After reciting the mantra all morning, I blurted it out out of habit.
Seeing Liu Ji looking at her blankly, Yayin smiled and said, "Cooking now?"
Liu Ji's eyes opened wider when he heard Ya Yin's question.
He understands, he really understands!
Although it was just a basic communication of splicing words together, he really understood it!
Finally, I finally talked to someone again!
"Huh? What's wrong?" Yayin looked at Liu Ji strangely and pointed at the corner of her eyes.
"Huh? I..." Liu Ji was stunned and reached out to touch the corners of his eyes.
Damn it, he was so excited that he shed tears.
Liu Ji quickly rubbed his eyes and said in panic: "I cook, cook."
After saying that, he wanted to get up, but he obviously forgot that his right hand was still tied to the stick. He leaned his weight back, turned 180 degrees around the stick, and fell to the ground smoothly.
"Pfft," Yayin couldn't hold it back and laughed out loud at that time.
Liu Ji suddenly blushed, and hurriedly untied the rope tied to his hands, got up from the ground, and ran towards the stove as if he was running away.
Yayin watched Liu Ji leave, smiled and shook her head, then took out her pen, flipped to the back of the book, and continued to write something.
She was indeed right. Liu Ji was really suitable for learning spells, and he understood the spells very quickly.
Originally, she did not expect Liu Ji to complete the number of words she prepared today, but now it seems that her preparation may be a bit conservative.
Not far away, Mo Wente was leaning on the wooden bed he had just made, watching the interaction between Liu Ji and Ya Yin with interest.
"It's so rare that Yayin actually smiled," he thought to himself, "Ever since that incident, it seems like she hasn't smiled for a long time. Even if Osa plays tricks on her, she has never smiled... "
He looked at Liu Ji and carefully looked at this strange potato man with green hair.
"Ha, I really don't know what's so special about this guy... Although it sounds like that," he murmured to himself, "but if you think about it carefully, this guy is really, really special."
"Perhaps I can actually let down my guard against him?" Mo Wente thought to himself, "After all, he has helped us before..."
But soon, he shook his head and rejected the idea.
As he said, Liu Ji is so special and has countless mysteries surrounding him.
Without understanding, it is difficult to trust from the heart.
