Chapter 141: Chapter 82 Chongqing Trip (4) Interaction, Transformation_2
She placed a bundle of dry firewood to the side, and a freshly killed wild rabbit next to it.
Ye Qichi, holding a stone she had just picked up, selected a stick of firewood and began earnestly to try starting a fire with a drilling wood technique.
Xiao Jinxing just watched Ye Qichi.
Watching her sowhat peculiar manner.
Ye Qichi kept going with the motion of drilling wood to make fire.
The palms of her hands were nearly punctured by the effort, but sparks finally began to appear on the wood.
Ye Qichi was delighted.
Xiao Jinxing was also surprised.
He had never imagined that Ye Qichi was trying to start a fire.
And this thod of starting fire... he was seeing it for the first ti.
After Ye Qichi ignited the fla, she hurriedly took so more dry firewood and got it burning.
In a short while.
A firelight began to flicker inside the cave, not a big fire, but it felt like seeing hope.
After lighting the fire, Ye Qichi began to deal with the wild rabbit next to her.
"Did you catch it?" asked Xiao Jinxing.
"Otherwise?" Ye Qichi earnestly skinned the rabbit, saying, "Thankfully you gave
a dagger, otherwise we would starve tonight!"
Xiao Jinxing didn’t speak.
He just felt that Ye Qichi’s wilderness survival skills were much stronger than he had thought.
He had thought that she didn’t know anything.
In the quiet.
Ye Qichi finally finished skinning the rabbit and removed its innards.
Then, she simply made a spit and began roasting it over the fire, adding, "No water to clean it. But don’t worry, high temperatures sterilize, and as long as it’s well cooked, there shouldn’t be any problems."
Xiao Jinxing was certainly not so picky at such a ti.
To him, staying alive was more important.
"Keep an eye on it for , turn it slightly in a while, it won’t taste good if it gets burnt! I’m going to look for so berries and also to fetch so water."
Xiao Jinxing nodded his head.
Although he had slept for a while, he could clearly feel his body weak and tired, probably because he hadn’t eaten anything all day.
However, Ye Qichi had been more active than him, yet she seed full of energy.
Ultimately.
Who was this woman?!
Really a fox spirit?!
Impossible.
Xiao Jinxing imdiately dismissed the thought in his mind.
He didn’t believe in those things: demons, ghosts, monsters.
Surely they couldn’t exist in this world!
Ye Qichi was unaware of what Xiao Jinxing was thinking.
Right now, she only wanted to find so water to drink.
She squatted down to examine the quality of the soil.
If it got wetter, it ant that there should be a water source nearby, possibly underground or between the mountain crevices.
She made a mark, then walked forward a few steps.
Squatted down to touch, and made another mark.
In about the ti it takes an incense stick to burn, she found water.
A very thin stream of spring water flowing down from between the mountain crevices.
Ye Qichi’s mouth was so dry it felt like it was smoking.
At this mont, she dared not go back to the river to find water to drink, as this was when the assassins would be searching for them, only by going deeper would it be slightly safer.
She quickly washed her hands, then held the clear spring water and took a big gulp.
That yearning for water was truly a hundred tis more torturous than hunger.
In her mind, the image of Xiao Jinxing suddenly appeared.
That guy had also gone a whole day and night without food or water.
She took a few more fierce gulps.
Thinking that n like Xiao Jinxing deserved to be tornted a bit longer.
Though that’s what she thought.
Ye Qichi’s movents accelerated a lot.
After quickly quenching her thirst, she imdiately found so trees next to her, used the dagger to cut them into pieces, and with so vine, briefly constructed an oversized wooden jug, to prevent leaks she found several large leaves, cleaned them bit by bit, and lined the inside of the wooden jug, after several tests to ensure no leaks, Ye Qichi filled a large jug with spring water and left.
On the way back, she found so berries.
After slling them to ensure they weren’t poisonous, she picked quite a few.
After nearly an hour delay, she finally returned to the cave.
Inside the cave at that mont, Xiao Jinxing was tending the fire.
She had been gone a bit long.
The dry firewood that had just been lit naturally wasn’t enough, and more needed to be added to the side.
But obviously, Xiao Jinxing wasn’t adept at this kind of task.
He had turned the fire into a complete ss.
He was also covered in soot and dust, utterly disheveled.
A far cry from the noble and haughty King Xiao, not just vastly different, but utterly unrelated!
Seeing that Ye Qichi had taken so long to return, his tone was also rather sour, "Why were you gone for so long!"
"I also didn’t know it would take this long to find water," Ye Qichi squatted down.
