Chapter 217 The 3rd Carving Knife (page 12)
Looking at Huo Yuhao's eyes, Chi Qiu blinked innocently: "I just want to lighten your mental burden."
"No...it seems to be of no use..." Huo Yuhao shook his head honestly, "However, from this point of view, although Qiu'er always said that the memories of ten thousand years are all repeated forest scenes, there are still some for you. It must have left a deep impression. Actually, I want to know, since you have the ultimate fire, don’t you have the experience of occasionally roasting prey and eating cooked food?”
He looked like he was forcefully changing the subject so as not to recall the scene just now. But Chiqiu just took up what he said, and the topic between the two of them came to the food channel:
"No, when it comes to hunting, first of all, I only eat the brains of the prey I'm interested in. Secondly, the prey I'm targeting won't resist and will only run away, so I rarely encounter situations where I need to use my power to kill someone. "
"Then after you came to human society, didn't you feel uncomfortable due to eating problems? You never told me once."
"It did take a little getting used to at first, but your grilled fish is very good and shortened the process." After saying this, Chiqiu rubbed his hands again and recalled carefully, "In addition, the ferocious beasts can be transformed into Have you ever wondered why the more powerful the spirit beast is, the more it pursues the human form?"
Huo Yuhao gave him a look that said, "I'm very interested, please continue talking."
"Diplomatic needs, this is one of the reasons. It cannot be ruled out that a small number of humans particularly like three-headed Tibetan mastiffs..." Huo Yuhao smiled knowingly when he heard this, and the Red King sneezed hugely in the distant Star Dou Forest. "Most humans will still feel fear from the bottom of their hearts when faced with beasts that are much larger than themselves, or plants that can move. Therefore, it is easier to negotiate with humans when turning into a human form. It is also convenient for movement and takes up a small area. This It’s all considered one aspect.”
"On the other hand..." Chi Qiu smiled slightly, "The human posture is more convenient for cooking!"
"Huh?!" Huo Yuhao's eyes widened in surprise. This was indeed something he didn't expect.
Seeing his surprised look, Chi Qiu narrowed his eyes in a good mood: "Don't underestimate the soul beasts, right? But the teaching materials of human soul masters are like that, so it's not surprising that there is a misunderstanding that we are always eating raw food. With spiritual intelligence , there will naturally be emotional pursuits, and the feeling on the tip of the tongue is as important as other emotions. The higher the intelligence, the more happiness you will gain from eating delicious things."
"It's just that we still retain the instinct of beasts, and we don't mind eating raw food at all. Guys like the King of Ten Thousand Demons will use wild fruits, vegetables and meat to make soup in a large wooden basin. There seem to be more than a dozen kinds Not a bad recipe.”
"It's just that we haven't come up with seasonings yet. After arriving in human society, what surprised me the most was your various seasonings and soul-guided kitchen utensils."
"I really can't believe it..." Huo Yuhao looked at Chi Qiu's eyes that lit up when he talked about Xing Dou, and sighed, "It seems that there are still many, many things I don't understand about you."
"That's because you haven't really lived in the Star Dou Forest yet, right?" Chi Qiu said, "You've only stayed for a month at most. It's actually not a long time. That's just the time for travel, right? When will you be able to completely stay there? When you have free time, you can go to the Star Dou Forest to calm down and live there for three months. The experience will be different from the human world."
"Okay," Huo Yuhao held her hand, "I promise you, I will definitely stay there if I have the chance."
Chi Qiu gently held his hand, which had been exposed to the wind and was slightly cold. Her palms are always warm, which may also be related to their martial spirits, ice and fire.
She said: "We will pursue more delicious food, and I will have love feelings for you. In fact, the essence is the same."
Huo Yuhao gave her his first sincere smile tonight, and the previous sorrow quietly drifted away from him. "Speaking of which, I haven't cooked grilled fish for a long time. Is this the only midnight snack?"
"Okay."
They did not return to the hotel, but went to the deserted river bank in the southern suburbs of Mingdu. The sky was a black velvet color, and the dark river reflected the stars and lights in the distance and the cool and faint moonlight. Chi Qiu stretched out a hand to light a fire, and Huo Yuhao skillfully fished out a few river fish from the river. The night did not affect his vision at all.
During this period of intense preparations for the competition and the investigation of the evil soul master, Huo Yuhao had not had such peaceful relaxation time for a long time. Today was also an impromptu decision. I stole an evening with my lover from the tight schedule and sat by the river for a picnic while enjoying the evening breeze.
For about half an hour, both of them had eaten and drank enough, and lay with their heads on the shore watching the stars in the sky. After lying down for a while, Huo Yuhao took out a dark carving knife from Ming Yuhuan and pointed it at the moonlight.
"Huh?" Chi Qiu immediately gathered his distracted energy, "This is the evil soul master's carving knife on the blood snake."
"That's right, I took it as a trophy." Huo Yuhao looked up at the carving knife. The moonlight grazed its edge, and it seemed to be afraid of the dark and evil aura on it, actually forming a hazy haze of light on its edge as if dodging.
"What attribute is this..." Chi Qiu saw this phenomenon, and she was a little surprised, "Could it be the attribute of space? The light was distorted by it."
Huo Yuhao nodded slightly. "I think so too," he said, "Qiu'er, the Blade of Creatures is closely connected with my Eye of All Souls, and the Frost Jade Sword and the Ice Emperor's Martial Spirit complement each other. I brought this carving knife because I wanted to It creates a connection with necromancy.”
"Three carving knives correspond to three abilities?" Chi Qiu thought thoughtfully, "It seems to be a good idea. Then you only need to purify this carving knife. Just like the living creature blade, it should be for you It’s not too difficult.”
"No," Huo Yuhao twisted his wrist slightly. The blade of the carving knife moved with his wrist, and the moonlight also deviated from its position. "There is a slight problem. Because it was not made of normal materials and then infected with evil spirits, but was made from the very beginning. It is made of weird materials, and if it is purified directly with undead magic, it will most likely cause it to crack from the inside and be completely destroyed.
"You remember when we first entered the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, the guy who had a fight with me because he insulted Wang Dong had a black soul guide in his hand, right? It looks like a similar material."
"Then what needs to be done?" Chi Qiu turned to look at him. Huo Yuhao's expression was not worried. The moonlight illuminated half of his face, which showed a faint smile, so Chi Qiu knew that he must have a solution.
Huo Yuhao stretched out a hand towards her: "Lend me the fire of light."
Chi Qiu put his hand on it. "Needless to say borrowing," she said, "there is no concept of borrowing and repaying between us."
In an instant, golden fire rose up like a dragon, reflecting the brilliant ripples of the river. The flames continued to rise, and when they came to the side of the carving knife, they entangled themselves in layers, like vines, but did not touch the surface of the carving knife, leaving a vague "breathing" space.
Chiqiu seemed to be still playing a role, deliberately raising her "cane". At this moment, she really looked like a dragon witch from a fairy tale.
Huo Yuhao grabbed her hand and used his strength to sit up from the meadow on the river bank. There were still a few grass blades on his hood and wolf ears. His eyes were locked tightly on this carving knife, which was as black as ink, and even such a brilliant firelight could not illuminate its surface. The cloak on his body automatically moved without wind, and he lifted the corner of the hood on his forehead, and the third eye between his eyebrows opened suddenly. open.
