Chapter 58 The Straw Hut

Landing firmly on the ground, the strange beast bent its body and put Li Jia down, facing the seemingly endless rice fields, without saying a word.

Looking ahead, Li Jia suddenly walked straight through the rice fields.

The strange beast didn't dare to fall down, and obediently followed his footsteps. After a few steps on the fat pads, a few clusters of rice fell behind him.

Strange to say, the shape of the plant is obviously rice, but stepping into the rice field, Li Jia discovered that there is no water in it at all. Although the soil is not as strong as hard rock, it feels like gravel when stepped on.

It's really a strange place.

With all kinds of doubts, Li Jia walked inside carefully. Generally speaking, there should be people in such a good environment. Even if there are no people, there must be some strange creatures.

However, until it was almost dark, his head was almost dizzy, but he still couldn't find anything unusual.

With a long sigh, Li Jia looked around, and simply sat down on the ground. The soft gravel was not intimidating. After being exposed to the sun for a day, there was a touch of warmth.

The strange beast who had been following him looked at his face, and carefully lay down around him, staring at him intently with a pair of big red eyes.

Deliberately ignoring the scorching gaze, Li Jia sat for a long time, then stood up suddenly, and walked forward with a strange expression.

Seeing his movements, Yi Beast seemed a little anxious. He wanted to stop him but didn't dare, so he could only watch him push away a cluster of tall rice in front of him.

The area of ​​this paddy field is really too big. From the sky, you can only see a piece of yellow and clear, and you can't see the details at all. But now that you stand close, those things that were originally ignored appeared.

Following Li Jia's movements, a hut hidden in the rice bushes was revealed.

Is there really someone here?Surprised in his heart, Li Jia was a little secretly happy.

"anyone there?"

He asked softly towards the straw door, Li Jia acted cautiously, but there was no movement inside, so he had to ask again loudly.

But there was still no answer.

Pushing open the door suspiciously, he looked at the thing that suddenly appeared in front of him with surprise.

The straw house, which looks full of primitive style on the surface, is so luxurious inside!

Tables and chairs, tableware, decorations... everything is made according to the highest standard that Doomsday can achieve, and there are even some things that Li Jia has never seen before.

The only strange thing was that there were not many other arrangements in the entire room, but the bed in the middle was terrifyingly large, occupying almost two-thirds of the entire room.

There is no one in such a house?

Frowning, I walked around the house. It seems that the things here have been placed for a long time, but I can't find any dust and cobwebs. It seems that someone often cleans here.

Curiously, he sat on the big bed. The soft mattress was made of unknown material, and it was very comfortable. For a moment, Li Jia even forgot that this was someone else's room, and rolled a couple of times on it as if enjoying himself.

Although the door of the straw house is a bit small, the space inside is really big. The strange beast that managed to squeeze in through the door tilted its head to see Li Jia's occasional childish behavior, and felt even more itchy.

Blinking its eyes, it suddenly kicked its hind legs and jumped onto the terrifyingly large bed.

Li Jia, who was lying comfortably on it, only felt a flash in front of his eyes, and his whole body was suppressed.

The strange beast half propped its forelegs on both sides of his shoulders, its red eyeballs could not turn, and its lower body pressed against him, licking his face with one mouthful.

The whole face was frozen into ice, Li Jia stiffened his body, and suddenly said: "Get out of the way."

The voice was not heavy, with the clearness unique to teenagers, the tongue of the strange beast that was about to lick his mouth froze, then stretched it back angrily, and licked his own mouth.

The beast's beard trembled with the movement of its mouth, and because of its close proximity, several of them touched Li Jia's face, and the itchy feeling was a bit unbearable.

Li Jia stretched out his hand silently, grabbed some of its beards, and pulled them to the sides.

"..."

A domineering beast face was torn into a ridiculous look, and the cold white fangs of the strange beast were exposed, but unfortunately it was only more interesting under this expression.

It may be that he has been honest for too long, but today Li Jia seems to be extraordinarily childish, and his youthful nature is suddenly exposed. He moves his hands and reflexively pulls his beard further apart, and the entire beast face is ripped apart.

The strange beast didn't seem to be aware of his embarrassment at all, but just stared at the boy's movements with wide eyes, allowing the other party to pull the most sensitive beard of the beast wantonly, challenging his authority as the king of the beast little by little.

What a stupid move...

After a while, Li Jiawei twitched the corners of his mouth invisibly, and was about to withdraw his hand.

A Mao Mao's paw held down the hand he wanted to take back, and when he was slightly stunned, he stuck out his tongue and licked his face, and before he could escape, he groaned softly, as if he was still a child.

Li Jia was at a loss for a moment. Facing such a strange beast, he suddenly didn't know how to reject it.

Suddenly moving a certain distance to the side, he turned over and closed his eyes.

The pair of animal eyes behind him were still staring, Li Jia felt his heart beating like a drum, and with a blushing face, he forcefully choked out a sentence: "Stay away a little, I'm going to sleep."

He didn't realize that the tone of the sentence just now was no longer as indifferent as it was a few days ago, and even contained a little squeamishness unique to teenagers, the kind of squeamishness that is only shown to acquaintances.

The strange beast didn't move, its crimson eyes looked at the young man not far away on the bed for a moment, and the desire in his heart was churning.

I really want to jump up and overwhelm people right now...

Just as its claws were about to move, the sound that had been made in Li Jia's belly sounded again.

"Gollum—"

The beast's claws froze in place, Li Jia froze for a while, and pulled the quilt on the bed to wrap his whole body.

There seemed to be a smile in his eyes, and the strange beast slowly climbed down from the bed, squeezed out of the door, and intentionally or unintentionally looked at the arched ball on the big bed.

It wasn't until the breath that suppressed him for a long time in the air finally dissipated that Li Jia tore off the quilt, but his heartbeat didn't slow down at all.

Holding his chest with one hand, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and his expression was a little dazed and painful.

Why, the pain in his heart at that moment just now, he couldn't even refuse ruthlessly, instead he said such extremely awkward words...

Pulling off the quilt again to wrap his body, Li Jia closed his eyes tightly, his face was pale.

When the strange beast came back, it had a large bundle of rice in its mouth, and an unlucky deer was under its paws.

Throwing everything outside, it went to the river to wash off its bloody stains before struggling to squeeze into the house.

Li Jia still hugged the quilt, but the whole person had already fallen asleep.

He seems to get tired easily, especially when he's with himself...

Yi Beast lowered his eyes, then remembered the tone he had spoken to him just now, his eyes lit up, and he climbed onto the bed lightly.

Li Jia's sleeping posture is very unstable, and the whole person curls up sideways into a ball - it is said that people who sleep in this posture often have a lot of pressure in their hearts, and their uneasiness leads them to want to wrap themselves up for self-defense.

Pulling back the soft quilt, the strange animal moved carefully and cautiously, for fear of waking up the sleeping Li Jia.

Li Jia, who lost the quilt, seemed very uncomfortable, Qingjun's face was wrinkled, and his hands spontaneously groped around quietly, trying to find something that could be hugged and entrusted.

Quickly leaning forward, the strange beast stretched out its forelegs, and arched its whole body forward, forming a half-curved crescent shape, holding Li Jia tightly in its arms.

The long and powerful tail rested gently in the boy's hand, and slowly, his brows relaxed, his arms naturally hugged the furry body, and he found a soft and comfortable place to sleep on the belly of the strange beast beside him.

Letting go of the dignity of the beast king, the strange beast softened its body and let Li Jia fiddle with it.

In front of him, it is willing to be a warm quilt...

Tightening its body, it tightened its grip on the boy in its arms. The strange beast stretched out its tongue and licked the skin of Li Jia's body, licking him from his face to his calves, caressing him gently like a mother beast caring for a fragile cub.

Perhaps from the moment it was born, the position of Li Jia's protector was doomed to change. No one could snatch someone away from it, not even Li Jia himself.

On the big comfortable bed, a beast-like creature embraced a slender young man in his arms. The possessive posture made people dream about it, but the young man remained motionless as if he was in deep sleep, but his eyelashes were lightly twitching in a corner where the strange beast could not notice. flutter.

A few days ago, he slept for too long and his stomach was empty, Li Jia couldn't sleep till dawn after all, Shi Shiran opened his eyes.

The strange beast had gone somewhere for a long time, and there was no trace of sleeping beside it. The quilt was wrapped around her body as it was when she slept last night, but there were a few suspicious creases on it.

Li Jia made the bed in silence and walked out the door. The sun was rising outside, and the orange halo was pitifully rare in the last days. He looked up for a long time before he came back to his senses.

One night passed, and still no human beings appeared, even if he occupied the thatched hut that seemed not simple.

Do you really want to stay here for the rest of your life...

"Ow—"

With a familiar howl, Li Jia turned around without saying a word, and the strange beast squatted and looked at him, with a big green leaf wrapped in a dark thing in front of it.

"……what is this?"

The dark thing seemed to be food, and the stomach that had been hungry for several days started to growl spontaneously.

Li Jia suddenly realized that even if he didn't need food for a while, at most, his stomach wailed a few times, and he didn't even feel powerless.

This was a strange thing, but he couldn't find any reason to explain it. His intuition told him that the strange beast beside him might know something, but he really didn't want to ask it about certain things.

The strange beast looked down at the unknown black object, then looked up at Li Jia, and groaned.

"..."

With a stiff face, Li Jia bent down and picked up the black bag, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it lightly, hesitated for a while, and asked hesitantly, "Is this really rice?"
