Chapter 70 Estrangement

Ji Mo looked at him, tried hard to suppress the discomfort in his heart, and turned around to go back to the cave.

  The relationship between the two seemed to have returned to the time when they first wanted to meet. Qianhuang was not a talkative person in the first place. In the past, Ji Mo would keep talking to him after getting familiar with him, but now, except for eating, the two of them basically have nothing to do. Communicate, live together, but feel like strangers.

  The hunting team's harvest was very good every day. Within a month, almost every family in the tribe had food reserves. Seeing that the pickled meat still tasted good after a month, people finally believed in Ji Mo completely. , some even say that she is really a messenger sent by the beast god.

  When Qianhuang came back that day, he ran to Ji Mo excitedly, carrying a small basket, "Ji Mo, today I..."

  Ji Mo was sitting on a piece of animal skin, washing fruits, and then putting them away. After entering a large clay pot, Ji Mo heard Qianhuang talking and looked up at him.

  "What's wrong?"

  Qianhuang's eyes fell on the fruits, and he hesitated for a while and asked, "Are these sent by Tarot?" He had never noticed it before.

  "Yes, most of them are delivered by him, and there are others, but those people always put the fruits at the entrance of the cave and leave. I don't know who they are."

  Qianhuang's hand slowly hid the basket behind his back. , and finally said, "What are you doing?"

  Ji Mo continued to lower his head and wash the fruits, "I can't finish eating so much. If I put them down like this, they will spoil. I will make them into fruit wine. In the cold season, When the time comes, there will be wine." At this point, she suddenly paused, her body stiffened, and she thought to herself, I just don't know if I will still be here in the cold season, maybe I will be abandoned again?

  Qianhuang was thinking about his own things and didn't pay attention to Ji Mo's expression. He said "oh" and turned around to leave. The small basket finally ended up in Xiyan's hands.

  When Xiyan excitedly gave Ji Mo the pears picked by Master Qianhuang himself, Ji Mo only felt bitter.

  He goes out every day. In fact, it's not that he doesn't have time to pick fruits, he just doesn't know how to pick them for her.

  "Ji Mo, what's wrong with you? Do you know where such a fruit grows? There are many wild animals in that place, and it is very dangerous. Only someone as powerful as Master Qianhuang can pick it." Xi Yan said while eating pears. Said excitedly.

  Ji Mo held the pear in his hand, but he had no desire to eat it at all. Ji Mo pushed the pear into Xi Yan's hand, "I don't like to eat this, you can eat it."

  Xi Yan didn't understand why Ji Mo didn't like such a delicious fruit, but even if she didn't like it, she could still Eat one more.

  "By the way, Ji Mo, tomorrow is the collection day, do you want to go too? You haven't been there for several collection days, and the leaves in the forest have started to turn yellow recently. We have to pick more wild vegetables, otherwise it will be cold during the cold weather. "Ji Mo can't eat these."

  Ji Mo was worried. It seems that there is not much time left before the cold season. Qianhuang and the others are busy stocking up on meat, while the females are picking wild vegetables.

  Xi Yan finished eating a pear and said to Ji Mo, "But since I got the backpack you made, we can bring back a lot of wild vegetables every time we go out. If we go more often, we can save a lot." At this point, Xi Yan's face dropped, "Even if you can't finish eating the wild vegetables, they will turn yellow and spoil."

  Ji Mo frowned, thought for a moment and said, "In fact, wild vegetables can also be pickled, as long as they wait until the cold weather. If it's cold, it won't go bad."

  Xi Yan's eyes lit up immediately, and she took Ji Mo's hand and said, "Ji Mo, you are really awesome. Do you just marinate meat like that?"

  Ji Mo shook his head. , "No, wait until tomorrow after the collection day, come here and I will teach you."

  Qianhuang came back very late today, Xiyan had already made soup for Ji Mo, and the sky outside was getting dark, Qianhuang Still not back.

  Seeing Xi Yan's anxious look, Ji Mo said, "Xi Yan, why don't you go out and look for him, I'm fine."

  Xi Yan looked at Ji Mo and hesitated for a while, nodded and left, leaving Ji Mo sitting alone. In the darkness, listening to the whistling wind outside, I felt sad.

  Ji Mo turned on the flashlight of her cell phone and sat there eating meat and soup until all the soup was finished and Qianhuang didn't come back. Her heart was not calm to begin with, and now she was even more irritable.

  She stood up and walked to the cliff to look down. The flashlight couldn't illuminate it, but there should be no one down there. It was just so late. Why hadn't Qianhuang come back yet?

  At this moment, footsteps suddenly came from the stone staircase. Ji Mo turned off the flashlight subconsciously, and Qianhuang's voice came immediately.

  "It's me, am I scared alone?" Qianhuang's voice was a little unsteady, even a little breathless. Ji Mo felt puzzled, how could he, a big lion with strong physical strength, be panting.

  Suddenly, Ji Mo seemed to smell the smell of blood, and his expression immediately changed. He turned on the flashlight and walked towards Qianhuang, "What's wrong with you? Are you injured?"

  Because she was walking in a hurry, she almost fell off the cliff. Fortunately, Qianhuang quickly retrieved her, "I'm fine, I'm not hurt."

  Qianhuang's deep voice sounded in his ears, with a breath of heat. Ji Mo turned his head uncomfortably and quickly pushed him away.

  "Oh, that's good. Hurry up and grill the meat for dinner." Ji Mo pushed him away and walked straight to the animal skin and sat down.

  Qianhuang followed her over, looked at her hesitating for a long time, and then asked, "Ji Mo, are you unhappy in anything recently?"

  Ji Mo turned to look at him, his face a little dark, "No"

  "But you ...Forget it, I'll go outside to have a barbecue, and you can go to bed first." After Qianhuang said that, he turned around and left.

  Ji Mo frowned. The smell of blood on Qianhuang's body was so obvious that she couldn't smell it wrong, but why did he say it was okay? Ji Mo was still a little worried. He took his cell phone and moved to the stone staircase little by little.

  After standing there for a long time, she mustered up the courage to step on.

  This stone staircase has always been a big challenge for Ji Mo. She felt like she was going to fall down before she even took a step, and she would be smashed to pieces. But she was worthless and people treated her like that, but she still... Will be worried.

  When Ji Mo came down from the cave with sweat profusely and walked to the river, what he saw was Xiyan sitting next to Qianhuang, Qianhuang tearing off the roasted meat and handing it to him. Xiyan faced Qianhuang. Huang smiled happily, the two of them looked extremely harmonious and beautiful.

  Ji Mo stood there, her legs were like lead. She couldn't move a step at all. Xiyan was holding a pear and talking to Qianhuang. Ji Mo could clearly see the change in Qianhuang's face.

  So she thought, is Qianhuang angry because Xiyan gave her the pear?

  Ji Mo turned around slowly, using all his strength, he walked step by step into the vast night.

  Beside the fire, Xiyan held a pear and asked in confusion, "This fruit is so delicious, why doesn't Ji Mo like it?"

  The smile on Qianhuang's face faded little by little, and finally said, "She might be You've eaten too many fruits, so don't miss this one." As he spoke, he reached out to the barbecue and turned it over, but he immediately retracted his hand when it was burned.

  "Master Qianhuang, are you okay?"

  "Master Qianhuang, what's wrong?" Hu Jia came over with a pile of firewood in his arms. He sat next to Xiyan and looked at Qianhuang with some worry.

  "It's okay, I just accidentally burned it."

  Hu Jia tore off a piece of tender meat for Xi Yan from the barbecue and watched Xi Yan eat it before he said, "Master Qianhuang, barbecue is what you do most, why? Will you get burned?"

  Qianhuang ignored him, but Xiyan said, "I think Ji Mo has become very strange since she was rescued from the impregnated orc. She often sits on the cliff alone. I was in a daze, and I went with Luo Yu, and she rarely talked to us. I felt like she didn't like us anymore. "

  Qian Huang turned her hand over and said nothing, but her face looked a little ugly. .

  Hu Jia pouted, "She is not from our tribe, how could she like us? Xiyan, you should stay away from her in the future. A slave..."

  "Shut up." Qianhuang suddenly scolded, which shocked her. At sunset, Hu Jia's words also stopped abruptly. When he came into contact with Qianhuang's cold and stern eyes, Hu Jia lowered his eyes and did not dare to say any more.
