Chapter 293 Dislike of Blood
Chapter 293 Dislike of Blood
The bright moon is in the sky and the evening breeze is blowing.
The nights in the hot season were much cooler than during the day. Everyone sat around the stone table, enjoying the cool night breeze and the delicious food comfortably.
"Hey, Mian Tian, I thought you were a hidden talent!" Shi Yuan held the stewed pork elbow in one hand and two bamboo chopsticks in the other, his mouth full of grease. He came over and was about to touch Mian Tian's shoulder, "You are so good, why didn't you tell me earlier? If I had known, I wouldn't have competed with you!
Mian Tian disliked the oil on his paws and turned his head to hide next to Su Qianqian.
Seeing this, Su Qianqian picked up some roasted red fruit from the table and stuffed it into his mouth, "You're the only one who talks too much, eat quickly."
"Mmmmm..." Shi Yuan was pulled back to the bench by Nan Wu's collar, but he couldn't stop saying, "Su Mu, you're so mean! Mian Tian has only been here for a few days, and you're so protective of him. Is there any justice in the world?!"
Su Qianqian rolled her eyes at him, indicating that she didn't want to bother with this brainless guy.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Mian Tian’s ability to kill a fifth-order ferocious beast with just a few words was no joke. Everyone else was afraid and terrified of him, but this guy actually dared to come forward. What if he angered the giant Buddha?
In the end, she still has to coax him.
It’s very tiring to coax a man!
After thinking about it, Su Qianqian took out the pair of deerskin boots she had made earlier from her storage ring and handed them to Mian Tian. "Here, you helped me catch so many live prey this time in the mountains. You win the competition, so I give you these boots."
Mian Tian took the deerskin boots, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up, but he still looked calm on his face: "...Thank you."
Shi Yuan, who was standing next to him, shamelessly approached again: "What about mine?"
"Do you still have any shame? You lost the game!" Nan Wu pulled his collar again and sat him back down.
Shi Yuan pouted in grievance: "Although I lost, I also caught a lot of prey, okay? Isn't there any reward?"
Su Qianqian: "..."
Su Qianqian sighed helplessly, then took out a pair of deerskin boots from the storage ring and threw them to Shi Yuan opposite.
“…He has it too?” Mian Tian’s face next to him suddenly turned bad.
Su Qianqian: "Uh, well..."
Before Su Qianqian could explain, Shi Yuan, who was standing opposite her, looked at the deerskin boots in Mian Tian's hand and asked, "Why don't my pair look as good as Mian Tian's?"
Su Qianqian: "Oh, because your pair is made by Nanwu."
As soon as these words were spoken, the gloomy aura around Mian Tian disappeared immediately, and a smile appeared on his face as bright as spring flowers.
"What? It turned out to be made by Nanwu." Shi Yuan curled his lips, "No wonder it's so ugly."
"What did you say?!" Nan Wu angrily grabbed Shi Yuan's ear and said, "How dare you dislike what I made!?"
"No, no..." Shi Yuan hurriedly defended himself, "How dare I..."
……
The dinner was spent in such laughter and joy.
……
this day.
As soon as Mian Tian left the house and walked in the tribe, the orcs all looked at him with respect. Some even stood timidly at a distance, only daring to look at him from afar and not daring to come forward to say hello.
Through Shi Yuan's chattering mouth, the news that he easily killed a fifth-level ferocious beast in the mountains has spread throughout the tribe. Now the orcs in the tribe are both afraid and respectful of him.
Miantian was a little uncomfortable. He didn't like others being so respectful to him. It made him feel like he was back in the suffocating days of the past...
But he immediately put this thought behind him.
He turned around and saw Shi Yuan waving at him frantically not far away: "Miantian, come here!"
Shi Yuan and his companions were processing the prey they had brought down from the mountain, skinning the animals, removing their bones, and packing the edible meat.
Mian Tian glanced at the blood-soaked ground, frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and then walked over. "...Where is she?"
"Her? Who are you asking?" Shi Yuan was picking up the animal hides on the ground. He was confused for a moment, then realized, "Oh, you should ask Su Mu. She is tinkering with that soap with Shanmao and the others. What do you want to talk to her about?"
Mian Tian ignored him and turned to walk towards the soap house not far away. Shi Yuan grabbed Mian Tian's shoulder with a big hand and said, "Hey, don't bother Su Mu all the time. She is not as idle as you. If you have nothing to do, come and help us deal with these preys."
Mian Tian looked at Shi Yuan's blood-stained hand on his shoulder, and his brows frowned even deeper.
But in the end he didn't say anything. He just brushed Shi Yuan's hand away, bent down and picked up the hind leg of the prey on the ground.
This prey is the famous Iron-skinned Bull in the Myriad Beast Forest. It is huge in size, with extremely hard bones and leather as indestructible as fine iron. Several orcs broke two bone blades but still failed to cut the bull's flesh and bones. Now they are using brute force to tear the bull's limbs apart, and then grind them open bit by bit with bone chips.
But after trying their best for a long time, they still failed.
However, as soon as Mian Tian took action, he only pulled lightly and the iron bull was torn into two halves alive.
With another effort, he successfully separated the Iron Bull's limbs and head.
The people present looked at this scene, their mouths wide open in disbelief.
Shi Yuan was so shocked that he exclaimed "Fuck!" and said, "Mian Tian, you little brat, I never could believe you have such great strength in such a small body!!"
Facing everyone's praise, Mian Tian's expression was very calm. He lowered his eyes lightly, looked at the bloodstains on the palm of his right hand, and frowned deeply again.
Then, he clenched his five fingers slightly, and a cluster of dark blue flames suddenly ignited in the palm of his hand. Ignoring the shocked and horrified eyes of the people around him, the temperature of the dark blue flame instantly increased hundreds of times, directly burning away the bloodstains on Mian Tian's palm, leaving behind a clean white palm.
"No, if you think blood is dirty, just go wash it in the river. Why did you suddenly set fire to scare others?" Shi Yuan wiped the sweat from his forehead and exhaled hot air, "Quickly put away your magical powers, it's too hot!"
Mian Tian glanced at him, then clenched his five fingers, and the flames disappeared instantly.
As the terrifying scorching heat disappeared, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.
"What else do you need me to do?" asked Mian Tian.
"Goodbye, go wherever it's cooler. We don't need your help here." Shi Yuan waved his hands quickly, hoping that this plague god who set fires anytime and anywhere would leave quickly.
Su Qianqian watched this scene from afar and couldn't help laughing out loud.
She didn't expect that Mian Tian, who looked cold and indifferent on the surface, as if nothing in the world could make him care, would actually show such disgust for blood.
But...why does he hate blood so much?
Could it be related to his previous experiences?
