monster he just wants to be a good guy

... a bit like being poisoned.

When Lu Man returned to the camp, a bonfire had already been set up in front of the cave entrance.

They used sharpened wooden sticks to skewer many voles and hares, sprinkled with simple coarse salt, and baked them back and forth over the fire.The members of the hunting team ate cold dry biscuits for two or three days, but now they can't stop salivating when they smell the hot meat.

The ones returning to the camp so far only hunted some small animals, and Lu Man was the first to bring large prey.Seeing Lu Man returning with a bunch of prey by himself, they gathered around to help.

Seeing that they were cooking in full swing, Lu Man felt a little itchy, and asked, "Can I have a barbecue too?"

"Of course, whoever hunts it will be the one who disposes of it. Of course you will cook your prey!"

"I want to roast a pig."

"Hey, it's still a tough dish! But Xiaoman, do you have cooking experience before? If not, some of our uncles can help you."

"I've done it a few times at home before, it's okay, I'll try it first."

Lu Man recalled his few cooking experiences, and Aunt Lu, Uncle Lu and Xiao An seemed dissatisfied.

But last time the cake was made according to the recipe given by Xiao Ai, and the children still seemed to like it very much.This time it was done according to the recipe.

"Xiao Ai, call up the recipe information for roasted wild boar."

"Received! Need ginger, onion, garlic, cooking wine, lemon, honey, coarse salt..."

Lu Man left to find some condiments, and ran outside.Roasting pigs requires a larger rack. The uncles of the hunting team used thick wooden stakes to set up brackets on both sides of the campfire.

As soon as the shelf was set up, Lu Man came back, holding wild onions with muddy roots in one hand, and a large honeycomb wrapped in leaves and soaked in honey in the other hand.Lu Man walked straight towards Li Nan and asked him, "Brother Li Nan, can I borrow some of your wine?"

He got some cooking wine from Li Nan, and ordered two cloves of garlic from another uncle who liked to eat garlic-wrapped cakes.As for other things that are really hard to get, forget it, it should be fine if you don't let it go.

The others had never seen him fight like this, and they were about to come to help, when they saw the young man skillfully plucked the pig's hair, and cut several cuts on the wild boar with a knife. open.He minced the onion and garlic, mixed the wine and honey, and spread it evenly on the pig.

"I can't tell, Xiao Man, are you so good at knife skills?" Uncle Liu was dazzled by Lu Man's way of cutting pigs.Lu Man waved his hand modestly. This kind of work is the easiest, just like cleaning up monsters. It can be easily done by aiming at the tendons and following the texture of bones and meat.

Everyone saw that he was so handy with even the most difficult steps, so they let him go with confidence.

After marinating for a while, Lu Man put the pork on the fork according to the steps.

The four hooves are fixed on the four sides, and the whole pig is flattened and the four feet are kept at the same level.The fat under the pig's skin sizzled and gradually melted, and the oil kept dripping out, dripping into the campfire.

Lu Man didn't forget to brush a layer of honey on the pork skin, and from time to time, he used a knife to scratch the pork ribs a few times, so that the inside of the meat could be smoked and roasted with marinade and charcoal to make it more flavorful.The pig turns round and round, and the skin gradually becomes golden and crisp.

The most original smell of meat wafts all over the camp, which makes people's index fingers move.Before I knew it, dozens of people were already gathered around the campfire, watching the shiny pig drooling.

Lu Man happily continued to turn the roast pig. He rarely has a strong desire to win when it comes to cooking.The previous few times, he failed to get a positive answer from them saying "delicious". This time, Lu Man had a hunch that this roast pig would be well received and conquer the stomachs of everyone in the hunting team!

Feeling that it was almost roasted, Lu Man sprinkled a handful of coarse salt.As a cook, he tore a small piece of pork leg, threw it into his mouth and tried it, his eyes became brighter as he chewed it.

"It's ready to eat!" Lu Man smiled with his eyes bent, and the small firelight fell in his eyes, looking particularly energetic and energetic.He tore off the second piece of meat and handed it to Li Nan who was closest to him.

By the time Zheng Qingmiao and Zhang Qingyan set up a new trap and came back, it was already dark.They were the last batch to return to camp.

From a distance, we could see the flickering fire, and everyone gathered around the campfire noisily.Along with the wind, the smell of meat floated over.

"Okay, those guys secretly eat meat while we're away!" On the first night of hunting, everyone will eat a good meal to boost morale, hoping that this hunting will last from beginning to end and return with a full reward.Zheng Qingmiao grinned and hurried towards the camp.

As soon as I arrived at the periphery, I heard them in full swing.

"Do you want to see something interesting?" Li Nan stepped on the stone and raised his hand to yell.

"Think!" Everyone responded enthusiastically.

"Come on, Xiaoman, come here." Why did it involve Xiaoman?Zheng Qingmiao pushed aside the crowd outside, wanting to go in and have a look.

"Okay, then... Lu Man from our Qingmiao Village will perform a unique skill for everyone, look forward to it! Hey!"

Zheng Qingmiao squeezed in with great difficulty, and saw Lu Man with his back turned to him, and Li Nan's hand waved up and down, left and right in front of his eyes a few times.

Then, a pair of fluffy ears protruded from the top of Lu Man's head.

He nearly went into cardiac arrest.

"Wow!" Everyone's eyes widened in surprise, and the air froze for a while.

Zheng Qingmiao took the opportunity to break through the crowd, dodged to cover Lu Man's head, and snatched him away from the crowd in the blink of an eye.

Li Nan hadn't realized what happened, and was still muttering to himself: "Hey..."

The people around were also looking around in bewilderment, not knowing where the fluffy Xiaoman had gone.

When Zheng Qingmiao was a little farther away from the crowd, she lifted her coat and saw that Lu Man's eyes were bright, and she smiled unconsciously, exactly the same as when she accidentally ingested alcohol two days ago.

He observed the crowd over there again, and found that they were as drunk as drunk, dancing and top-heavy.

But there was no smell of alcohol in the camp.

A pig that had been eaten to its bones remained on the campfire, with excess marinade scattered around it.Zhang Qingyan leaned down and observed the mixture carefully, there were some minced green onions and garlic floating in it.She dipped her fingers in it and sipped it, there seemed to be some honey...and wine in it.

But alcohol is volatile, and the temperature is so high during the baking process, it must have evaporated long ago, so it won't be drunk.

"It's strange... It's kind of like being poisoned." Fortunately, the toxin should be relatively weak. Everyone is just a little confused, talking more, and being extremely excited. The symptoms are like being drunk.

But these ingredients are normal, and when she was in the village, she also tried the same combination of condiments, which did not cause food poisoning.

Where did the toxin come from?Zhang Qingyan frowned slightly, unable to think of an answer.

After a while, Lu Man woke up first, and his ears were put back in an instant.

When he saw Zheng Qingmiao, he grinned: "Brother Qingmiao, you are back? I left you barbecue...they said it was delicious!"

While talking, Lu Man walked to the bonfire, and accidentally found a roasted wild boar that had been eaten to pieces.

"It seems to be eaten... I'm sorry Brother Qingmiao, I will make it for you next time."

Zheng Qingmiao scratched her head reluctantly and laughed.

Lu Man suddenly noticed that the people around him were behaving strangely.

"What happened to them?"

Zheng Qingmiao and Zhang Qingyan looked at each other.

After learning that the pig he roasted had poisoned the entire hunting team, even though it didn't take long for the others to return to normal, Lu Man was still extremely guilty.The next day, in order to make up for his mistakes, he took turns helping each team track the traces of the prey.

The rest of the hunting team quickly saw Lu Man's godlike tracking ability.

"Xiao Man, enough is enough!" This was the last team, and Lu Man brought three sheep back to Uncle Liu and the others one after another, and one of them was a lamb that was very suitable to be brought back to the village for domestication.Just as Lu Man was about to attack for the fourth time, Uncle Liu stopped him.

"I really felt sorry for you last night." Lu Man was still a little ashamed when he thought about it.

Uncle Liu looked at him kindly: "You, don't blame yourself. No one would have thought that such a normal food would poison people, right? Those of us veterans who have experienced many battles and a handful of bones didn't notice it. Not to mention you, a newcomer who just joined. Moreover, although the process was a bit twists and turns, but you baked deliciously, we are also enjoying ourselves."

"Really?"

"Really, why did Uncle Liu lie to you? Well, you should hurry back to the team, otherwise Qing Miao and the others might have to wait in a hurry."

Uncle Liu smiled, watched the young man in front of him regain his vitality, and waved him goodbye.

Liu Kuangye next to him looked at Lu Man's leaving figure with dim eyes.

After Lu Man left, he was not in a hurry to return to the team. He gave Xiao Ai an order in his mind: "Xiao Ai, please take me to the place where I pulled wild onions last night."

He wanted to check one by one to see which link went wrong.

When Lu Man arrived there, the traces of soil uncovered after pulling the onions yesterday were still brand new, and the sound of the nearby water was clear.

This area...he should have been here.The surrounding terrain quickly appeared in his mind.

Lu Man found that this place was not far from the lake he and Liu Kuangye found yesterday.He lifted his steps and ran towards the lake.

The lake is still as calm as yesterday.Lu Manban knelt on the ground and put his face close to the lake.

The stench of the water rushed up all of a sudden, and Lu Man frowned slightly.The water was dark green and cloudy, and he couldn't see what was in the lake.

He wanted to stick his head into the water and have a look.

The sentries had checked yesterday, and there should be only one wireworm monster, which had been intercepted by him before.Even if there are insect eggs in the water, the lake is so big, and his direction is far away from the entrance of the stream, so it should be fine to enter the water for a short time.As for other risks in the lake, Lu Man was not afraid, after all, he healed quickly from his injuries.

After thinking about it, Lu Man supported the ground with his hands, stuck his head in, and opened his eyes in the water.

After a while, he was pulled out.

Liu Kuangye dragged Lu Man out by the back of his neck. Before he could ask what Lu Man was doing, Lu Man raised his eyes and glanced at him.

There were still drops of water on the young man's eyelashes, and his eyes were pitch-black. Liu Kuangye shuddered a little from the cold glare that flashed across his eyes.

Lu Man was still thinking about what he saw just now under the lake.

He saw countless bones at the bottom of the lake, as if there was something else... He had to take a closer look.
