About the brave man who became a thousand-year-old potato and ended up destroying the world

144. In principle, you can’t eat the two-in-one, but you can still try it.

With a muffled clang, the hemispherical piece of soil fell to the ground, and the tent above it fell into a pile of debris.

"Bah, bah..." Liu Ji spit out the mud in his mouth and got out of the soil.

Behind him, Yuan He and six potato cubs also popped up.

The brothers were used to living in the soil, but they were not as embarrassed as Liu Ji.

Yayin stood in a magic bubble, slowly floating down from the air, looked at the sky, took out the map and looked at it, nodded and said: "Well... at least the direction is correct, but the distance is not sure..."

"Ah? Where are we going?" Liu Ji patted the dirt on his body and looked around.

At first glance, it seemed that there were ordinary mountain gardens nearby. I didn’t know where they were exactly, and there didn’t seem to be many people there.

This is quite normal. In a world like this, the area of ​​human settlements is not even one percent of the wilderness. If there is no precise location or some kind of guidance, most of the information will eventually reach the wasteland.

“Of course we’re going to Kaga Holy Capital,” Yayin said. “After all, we agreed to gather there. Although I don’t know where the phase storm sent them, I still have to go and take a look first. "

"Oh, that's right," Liu Ji let out a sigh, "I can finally go to a big city. Living in the open air, I really miss the hotel rooms and guild food in Mill City."

"Well, how should I put it? It's better not to have high hopes," Yayin sighed, "When we were still in Mir City, many cities were attacked by the tyrant's troops. The situation there now How, it’s hard to say.”

"Really..." Liu Ji scratched his head, "But after all, it is the largest city nearby, so it shouldn't be defeated so easily, right?"

"Well, I think so, but we don't rule out unexpected situations," Yayin said. "For example, if the tyrant himself takes action, basically no city can stop it."

"Ah, that's true," Liu Ji scratched his hair.

If an atomic bomb was dropped directly, no one would be able to withstand it.

In addition, the tyrant didn't come to find them, so it's not impossible that he was killing them somewhere.

The two people here were chatting when suddenly, Yuan poked Liu Ji's shoulder.

"Grandpa, brothers are all hungry," Yuan asked in a low voice, "When will we have dinner?"

"Eh? Ah, it seems it's time for dinner..." Liu Ji said, turning to Yayin and asking, "Shall we have a meal first and then leave?"

"Well, you arrange it, I just want to confirm our location," Yain said casually, waved his hand gently, put out the kitchen utensils and stored ingredients in the magic space, and then took the map and magic Stick, go fiddle with your own.

Although they had eaten ready-made food in the village before, they had not replenished supplies during this period. These brats ate too much, and there was really not much food left.

This meal was good enough, but the next meal may not be so good.

"Yuan, take your brothers out to get some prey and come back," Liu Ji said, "otherwise you won't be able to eat your next meal."

When the Potato Boys heard this, didn’t they have enough to eat?That’s okay!

One by one, they immediately jumped up from the ground, agreed, and rushed towards the forest with knives, axes and sticks.

Looking at their backs, Liu Ji touched the corners of his mouth.

As expected, these guys are only more active than anyone else in eating.

It's good to be there. A life that is easy to satisfy will always lead a happier life.

"Okay, now let me, old man, take a look. These ingredients are enough to prepare several dishes..." Liu Ji muttered, and also started to empty the pots and pans.

In the forest, a middle-aged man was walking hard with a young girl on his back.

The man looked to be in his thirties or forties, with a strong build, short hair, and was dressed in commoner clothes. A broad sword about one meter long hung on his waist.

The girl looked to be only about ten years old. She was thin and had chestnut-brown shoulder-length hair. She was wearing a coarse robe.

The two men looked very embarrassed and disgraced. There were dark red stains on their trousers, and they didn't know if they were blood stains.

As the man walked, he raised his eyes and glanced at the sky.

The sun has already reached the west side, and it will probably be dark in two hours.

If it were normal times, it would already be dinner time.

The man turned his head and glanced at the girl on his back, then glanced at the road behind him. After hesitating for a while, he gritted his teeth and continued to move forward.

It's still not safe enough here to stop.

He has to move on...

until……

No, in short, just keep going.

Every extra step you take gives you a little more hope of survival.

However, as soon as the man took two steps, he heard the girl's weak voice coming from behind him.

"Dad, I'm a little hungry..."

The man paused, and he instinctively wanted to answer "just hold on a little longer" as before.

But when the words reached his mouth, they got stuck in his throat.

Although the girl said she was a little hungry, but...

In the past two days, they had only eaten two meals of wild fruits picked from the roadside.

Even the man himself was already dizzy from hunger, let alone his young daughter...

The man hesitated again and again, but stopped.

No, they have to find something to eat first. If they continue like this, they may starve to death before they find a safe place.

But in the wilderness, it was getting dark again. Where should they find food?

But looking at his daughter's expectant eyes, the man swallowed, forced a smile, and said, "Okay, then, dad will take you to find something to eat..."

After that, he carried the girl on his back and continued walking towards the forest.

This time he slowed down and focused on the ground nearby.

At this time, the food sources he could find were very limited.

Nothing more than mushrooms, fruit, and berries.

But in this season, it is not easy to collect these most common foods.

The man opened his front pocket and searched as much as possible for these things on the ground as he walked.

If they were lucky, they should be able to find something to fill their bellies before dark.

At least, you shouldn’t be so hungry that you can’t sleep at night…

However, just after taking two steps, the man suddenly heard the faint sound of laughter and laughter coming from a little distance.

"Is there someone!?" The man immediately became frightened and turned around to run away.

But as soon as he turned around and took a step, he stopped again.

not right...

Something was clearly wrong with this cheerful noise.

How could machines that only knew how to kill make such cheerful laughter?

"Are they other escapees? Or nearby residents?" the man couldn't help but wonder.

If that's the case, then maybe they can be saved?

No, no, it could also be a bandit in the wild.

If you encounter bandits and robbers in this state, it will be all over...

but……

Looking at the pale daughter behind him, the man couldn't help but think that if, if she was really a nearby resident, maybe they would be able to have a hot meal right away and have a place to sleep peacefully.

This is comparable to picking a bunch of half-ripe wild fruits in the wild. After filling your belly with dryness, you have to sleep on the palm leaves in the wild and blow the cold wind all night.

The man himself doesn't care, but his daughter...

"No, I have to go take a look..." He swallowed.

At least have to take a sneak peek.

Even if the probability of meeting a good guy or a bad guy is [-]-[-], it's still worth trying his luck.

"Xiaojia, please don't say anything next," the man whispered.

The girl, though confused, nodded slowly.

It could also be that she didn't have the strength to speak anymore.

The man gritted his teeth, forced himself to take a breath, controlled his body, and walked in the direction of the voice.

100 meters, 200 meters...

The man advanced quietly and heard the sound getting closer and closer.

Gradually, he heard some other sounds coming from Na Huan's laughter.

It was like the neighing of a wild animal, like the cry of prey before it died.

"Are they hunting?" the man thought to himself.

But under normal circumstances, would any hunter laugh so loudly while hunting?

Wouldn't this scare the prey away in advance?

Hearing the sound getting closer and closer, the man found a low bush, quietly hid behind it, and looked forward along the gaps between the branches and leaves.

Then he saw something he couldn't understand.

I saw six potatoes with arms and legs holding an ankylosaurus that seemed to weigh several tons with their fists raised and beating them up.

Next to them, there was a strong man with a height of two meters and short green hair cheering them on.

The strangest thing is that none of these potatoes were armed, but no one pulled out their own weapons. They just punched and kicked the Ankylosaurus on the head.

The man had never seen such a strange hunting scene in his life.

Just when he was wondering what these potatoes were doing, suddenly, with a heavy punch from one of the potatoes, the Ankylosaurus rolled its eyes and fell to the ground.

The Ankylosaurus, which was famous for its hard skull and back shell and even dared to hit the mountain with its head, was knocked unconscious by them.

After stunning the ankylosaurus, the potatoes all let out a cheer, seemingly celebrating their hunting success.

Then, they all turned their heads and looked straight in the direction of the man.

For a moment, the man felt that the hairs all over his body were standing on end. He jumped up in fear and started to run away.

However, as soon as he stood up, he bumped head-on into a chest muscle full of starchy texture.

In just an instant, the strong man nearly two meters tall stood in front of him!

The man was about to turn around and run away in another direction, but found that he was surrounded by six other potatoes.

"That, that! I was just passing by! Don't..." The man was about to explain when the nearly two-meter-tall green-haired man in front of him spoke.

"Hey, we are lucky, there are two more prey here."

He said so.

But the man didn't understand what he was saying at all. He had never heard such language.

"You, don't you speak Common Language?" the man asked.

At this time, a potato on the side said: "Isn't it right? Didn't Grandpa say that in principle you cannot eat human-shaped prey?"

It’s still a language that men don’t understand.

Then, another potato said: "But it's just in principle, right? We've encountered them anyway, why don't we take them back and ask?"

"Then we have to knock him out too?" Another potato waved his fist eagerly, "Even if it's a humanoid one, it should be as fresh as Grandpa said, right?"

When the man saw the potato suddenly raising his fist, he was startled and begged for mercy.

However, the other party obviously didn't understand what he was talking about, and he continued to talk to himself.

"No, he's too weak. I'm afraid you'll blow his head off," the two-meter-tall man said again, "Anyway, they are so weak, so just take them back."

"Oh!" The potatoes all raised their hands and responded with enthusiasm.

Then one of the potatoes filled the girl who was being carried by the man into his arms.
