Do you believe me when I say I’m not a dragon?

"...Relax girl, we mean no harm."

The hunters walked towards Xiyin, but no one could associate them with kindness no matter how hard they looked.

"Hey!"

As they continued to approach Xiyin, a threatening roar suddenly came from behind them.

The hunters stopped and looked behind them, where Hai Xin was slowly walking toward them, carrying a giant beast more than ten meters tall.

Throwing the giant beast aside, Hai Xin touched his face and inadvertently left a blood mark on his face.

When everyone was attracted by Hai Xin, Shia quickly passed by them and came behind Hai Xin.

"What are you doing?"

After glancing at Xiyin behind him, Hai Xin looked at the crowd again, and his face darkened: "This is not a place to put firewood."

As she spoke, the scars on her face were distorted and looked extremely horrifying.

Staring at Xiyin, the hunters looked at Shia behind her. After a moment of silence, they said, "Sorry, this child just jumped off the spacecraft. We just wanted to take a look at her."

After saying that, they took a deep look at Xiyin behind them and turned to leave.

Chapter 311: Hai Xin

Holding the firewood and leaving without looking back, one of the hunters looked at the leader and asked in a low voice:

"What shall we do next?"

"...No need to do anything." After a moment of silence, the leader of the hunter said: "Ignore that girl, she is cared for by almost everyone in the spacecraft, she is too conspicuous. And our actions have already caused that girl The hunting team leader’s suspicions should not be acted upon except for the news about the floating island.”

"We understand." Hearing this, the hunters nodded gently.

——Looking at the hunters leaving, Hai Xin's expression softened. She turned around and half-crouched to look at Xiyin: "Are you okay? Did they do anything to you?"

"Ah... no, nothing." After hearing this, Xiyin looked away from them and whispered.

"As long as it's okay." Hai Xin rubbed her head and smiled: "——So, what you said about jumping off the spaceship just now is also true?"

"Well -" Xiyin only reacted after hearing this. She originally wanted to hide it, but she nodded under Hai Xin's sight, "So... right."

"From such a high place?" Hai Xin raised her head and looked at the top of her head, then at the place where her feet were just now, and then she showed a hint of surprise.

She originally thought that the hunters were just making excuses, but when she discovered the footprints that were much deeper than the others, she realized that they were not lying.

"Yeah." Seeing the surprise on Hai Xin's face, Xiyin felt proud unconsciously: "I just sat on the railing, closed my eyes, and jumped down."

"Good guy..." Hearing this, Hai Xin couldn't help but look at her with admiration.Maybe this little girl has the qualifications to be a hunter?

——But one thing is the same, and this kind of thing is not something she can decide.

Thinking of this, Hai Xin showed a sly smile: "——So, do you want to go out for a walk?"

"Eh?"

Xiyin was stunned and followed her gaze towards the direction of the forest: "But Sister Kulu won't let me go..."

"You jumped down like this, are you just planning to stroll around?" Sensing the flash of exploration in Xiyin's eyes, Hai Xin didn't mind satisfying her with such trivial things, "I will protect you. If you like, I can also take you hunting..."

"——Then I'm going!" Xiyin's eyes lit up, and he immediately threw Kulu's instructions behind him.

"Hehe, let's go then."

She smiled and walked towards the forest with Xiyin.

"Is there anything else? Captain?" The hunter guarding the forest was about to send a greeting, but he saw Xiyin following her: "This is not Kulu..."

"Just tell her when she comes back. We'll stay at the nearby creek for a while."

"clear."

——After explaining to the hunter, the two came to the forest and walked around.

Xiyin looked around curiously, sometimes raising her head to observe the flowers on the treetops, and sometimes lowering her head to look at the soil on the ground. Everything was so fresh in her eyes.

It wasn't until Hai Xin held her shoulders that Xiyin stopped and looked at Hai Xin doubtfully.

"Did you find anything?" Hai Xin asked nonchalantly.

"Eh?" Xiyin was stunned for a moment, and then he realized what was going on. He looked around and said unexpectedly: "Do you want me to find it myself?"

Hai Xin smiled mysteriously and said nothing.

"I haven't learned anything..." Xiyin muttered, but still lowered his head and looked around.

"Then let me give you a hint - little animals." Hai Xin said following her.

Xiyin paused, did not look back, but quickly entered the state to investigate the surroundings.

Soon, she noticed something strange.Xiyin quickly came to a bush and began to explore while squatting:

"There are signs of being eaten..."

She touched the leaves of the grass and examined the marks on them.

The location where the leaves are eaten is very distinctive. The upper part of the leaves is not eaten at all, while the lower part is eaten thoroughly.

This means that this creature is not very big. Even if it stands up, it is only about half a meter tall.

Thinking of this, Xiyin immediately became energetic.

——The traces of being eaten are very fresh, and the traces of leaves...are they rodents?

Looking at the pile of leaves carefully, Xiyin subconsciously looked in another direction. After gently pushing aside the grass and walking over, she discovered a small mound of soil.

After pushing it aside with a branch, she found a pile of granular feces.After also crushing it with branches, she found something like plant seeds.

"Is it possible to spread seeds through this method..."

The animal she found moved very lightly, so it didn't leave deep traces on the ground, but even so, Xiyin was able to detect some clues.

"The wet footprints...are they going in this direction..."

She looked forward and walked quietly, only to find that in front of her was a rushing stream.

There was an open space between the stream and herself, so she immediately stopped and squatted behind the grass to observe the movement by the stream.

that is......

A rabbit-like creature with lop ears dipped its body into the water and gnawed on the roots of some kind of plant. I am afraid that the seeds and wet footprints in its feces came from this.

"well done."

Hai Xin came behind her and handed her a hunting bow. This was not a large bow for hunting large creatures similar to Kulu. It was a smaller normal bow.

She had been observing Xiyin's reaction from behind. In her opinion, Xiyin's talent was nothing short of a genius. If it hadn't been for the lack of knowledge shown during the exploration, Hai Xin would never have thought she was a genius. Beginners coming to the wild for the first time.

——But everything she showed can only prove that she is an excellent explorer. As for whether she is suitable as a hunter, it depends on her subsequent performance.

"I haven't used it..."

Holding the bow and arrow in his hand, Hai Xin could feel the uneasiness coming from Xiyin.

Hai Xin held her hand, held the bow and arrow for her, slowly opened it, and at the same time whispered in Xiyin's ear:

"Look at your goals. Breathe gently, listen to your heartbeat, clear your thoughts, and face your deepest desires."

Under her guidance, Xiyin quickly calmed down and stared at the creature quietly, unaware that Hai Xin had let go of her hand.

Then, she whispered in her ear: "Let go."

Whoosh!

The arrow shot out quickly, piercing the rabbit's torso at that moment and pinning it to the ground.

After a quick twitch all over its body, it quickly became upright and motionless.

Chapter 312: Hunting

"Success!"

Seeing this scene, Xiyin immediately couldn't suppress the joy in her heart, stood up and waved her hands vigorously.

"very good."

Hai Xin also stood up, smiled, and watched her pull the creature up and hold it in her hands.

"So, how do you feel?"

She fiddled with the rabbit in Xiyin's hand, exposing its fatal wound in front of Xiyin's eyes.

The jubilant Xiyin suddenly became quiet. She looked at the rabbit and was silent for a long time.

"us......"

After a while, she slowly opened her mouth and raised her head to look at Hai Xin: "Is this what we have been doing all along?"

While looking at this little beast, she thought of a lot, whether it was the use of bows and arrows, the knowledge of this little beast, or her feelings about life - but what made her most profound was her understanding of Mingwu. Looking back after knowledge.

"...Do we have to do this when we want to learn knowledge or get food? Kill weak creatures, fight with creatures, or be killed by them." Do this. , both the behavior and the process made her feel strange and scared.

"..."

Hearing these words, Hai Xin was speechless. She opened her mouth and showed a lost expression for the first time.In her expectation, Xiyin would just feel pitiful or plain - but when she heard these words, even she was stopped.

"...Maybe not." She was silent for a while and said, "But now, this is the only thing we can do."

Both of them fell into the same silence. After a long time, Xiyin broke the silence with a soft voice: "Oh."

Hai Xin patted her shoulder and said, "Go back."

"Ah."

The two returned to the camp, where they met a restless Kulu.

"Xiyin! You are finally back."

She quickly came to Xiyin, held Xiyin's face, and checked whether there were any injuries on her body.

"I'm fine..."

Kulu breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Hai Xin, with an indifferent emotion in his eyes:

"——I should have said that I couldn't let her leave, right?"

Then, without waiting for Hai Xin to say anything, she pulled Xi Yin back to the ship, leaving Hai Xin alone standing there with an embarrassed look on her face.

She sighed and shrugged: "I'm disgusted..."

——After a while, both Kulu and Xiyin had finished washing and were sitting on the bed in the steaming heat.

Kulu has lived in human areas for a long time, and she has inevitably suppressed her forest habits. But now, she relaxed and exposed a large area of ​​snow-white skin, sitting on the edge of the bed and feeling the flow between her skin and the air.

And Xiyin was sitting on the bed, wearing loose pajamas, unconsciously touching her collarbone, quiet and not knowing what she was thinking.

"...Sister Kulu."

"what's up?"

"I..." Xiyin opened his mouth and hesitated for a long time before saying, "I want to become a hunter."

"What?!" Kulu turned around and looked at Xiyin inexplicably, "Do you know how dangerous this identity is? Or did Hai Xin tell you something?"

"No, there's nothing..." Seeing Kuru in this posture for the first time, Xiyin couldn't help but shrink her neck and her voice became much lower, but even so she continued: "I have been living in this world, but I have never discovered it...or I have never cared about what this world is like. Until just now, I feel like I have seen the tip of the iceberg that I don't know, so I want to see it. More, knowing more...this reason, okay?”

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Xiyin's words were not understood by Kulu at all. Kulu frowned and was about to say something to stop her.

——But the next moment, she suddenly remembered Luo Er’s advice:

"——In the future, if Xiyin has her own ideas, don't stop her and try to guide her. Let her do the rest."

Luo Er said this during the funeral of Xiyin's mother, Bell.

Then, the unspoken words suddenly stopped. She looked at Xiyin with stubborn eyes and sighed deeply.

"I...I understand, whatever you want to do is up to you..." She paused and stared at Xiyin again: "But I have a condition - if If you encounter something that will make you feel unfortunate in the future, you must stop it and never continue, do you understand?"

"Understood!" Looking at Xiyin who showed excitement, Kulu couldn't help but sigh.

"Okay, it's time to lie down and go to sleep."

"Ok!"

When the lights dimmed, the hunter on the other spaceship looked at the spaceship. After staring for a long time, he continued to lower his head and write on the envelope. Then, he stuffed the envelope with a bottle and hung it on a bird.
