Chapter 11 Eating Meat


Chapter 11 Eating Meat
On an ordinary evening, a line of burning clouds swept over the mountains, and the golden-red sunset cast a dim light on the entire mountain.

An Jing's group, who had completed their training goals ahead of schedule, were gathering together to play marbles.

An Jing, Gu Yeqi, Zhang Ying, Cang Lingzu, Ye Xiuyuan and Zhan Feng are the core group of people who are united around An Jing. They are basically An Jing's younger brothers and sisters and personal admirers, and they are very close to each other. We have a good relationship and we play together in our free time.

Marbles originated from the rewards Anjing received from his teachers for his daily performance, but he did not play with them himself. Instead, he used marbles to teach his friends how to master their power and use it accurately and dexterously.

The ground is bounded by a line. The other five people hold short sticks and use the sticks to push the marbles in order to hit other people's marbles.

Hitting one other person's marble is worth one point, hitting two is worth three points, hitting three in a row is worth six points, four is a grand slam worth 12 points, hitting out of bounds is deducted two points.

This game looks easy. In fact, you can only make money by letting the marbles stably hit two other people's marbles. You need to consider the force and chain collision on the marbles. Not to mention that everyone uses sticks to exert force, which is better than using their hands. It's more difficult to get more than one shot, which is a test of stability and path calculation.

Each player hits the ball once and it counts as one round. After five rounds, the game ends. The one with the highest score will be taught the opponent's martial arts skills by An Jing. As for those with negative points, An Jing will let him practice more.

At present, Gu Yeqi has won the most points - her control is very dexterous, she can hit two stably every time, and she can hit three when she breaks out occasionally.

Cang Linzu and Ye Xiuyuan followed. Their skills were not inferior to Gu Yeqi's, but they were too greedy and always used too much force, causing the marbles to go out of bounds.

As for Zhang Ying and Zhan Feng, they are both candidates for frequent training - Zhang Ying cannot grasp the angle of exerting force, and Zhan Feng has too much strength and cannot control the intensity.

"Okay!"

This time it was Zhang Ying who hit the ball. This time he mastered the angle and strength, and actually hit three goals at once. He corrected the negative points in one fell swoop, and he immediately cheered excitedly.

After that, he turned his head with some confusion and sniffed around: "Hey, wait a minute, Brother An."

"Did you smell it?"

"A little bit." An Jing was playing marbles with his thumb at the moment. The marbles went up and down in a straight line, extremely stable. This was a way for him to exercise his finger flexibility and control.

He raised his head and replied thoughtfully: "But I don't know what it tastes like."

"Huh?" Gu Yeqi was first again this time and could get advice from An Jing. She was bringing a bottle of water and handed it to An Jing. She turned around and said, "Is it herbal flavor?"

"It's Tie Nanxin...well, there's more!"

Gu Yeqi has lived in a manor steeped in the smell of countless herbal medicines since he was a child. He can even distinguish the types of herbs based on their pure taste. After closing his eyes and smelling them carefully, he opened his eyes confidently and said, "There is also Bingmang." The smell of flower seeds is so refreshing!”

"Wrong!"

Zhang Ying also said confidently: "It's meat. And a lot of it!"

"And..." After smelling it carefully, the young man said firmly: "There are more than one kind of animal meat!"

Zhang Ying's family has been hunters for generations. Before the Frost Tribulation, hunters in northern Xinjiang were synonymous with danger and wealth. If a hunting team could come out alive after entering the mountains, they would definitely return with a full load. Not only could they harvest the fur and flesh of beasts, but they could also harvest the fur and flesh of wild beasts. Pick enough rare spiritual herbs from the mountains.

Zhang Ying is very familiar with this smell. It is the smell of blood flowing and energetic muscles released after many beasts have been slaughtered. He will never mistake it.

"It's meat!" "It's herbs!"

As they talked, the two started to quarrel. Cang Linzu and Zhanfeng on the side shouted: "Fight, fight!"

Ye Xiuyuan and An Jing both shook their heads helplessly.

"alright."

Finally, An Jing raised his hand and stopped the argument between the two: "It's more than just these flavors."

He turned his head and looked at the attic on the side of the martial arts arena.

That was the Medicine Pavilion, where the deputy chief of medicine and others lived and worked.

Xuanming Village is like a boarding school that occupies a large area. It can easily accommodate a thousand people. Although the number of refugee children gathered is quite large, the actual activity area is not very large, such as the Medicine Pavilion. , back hall, back mountain, middle courtyard, secluded pool and other places are not allowed to enter and leave freely.

There are too many secrets in Xuanming Village, but the children don't care. Except the medicine pavilion.

Every five days, the assistant medicine envoy will summon the children to the Medicine Pavilion to check their health and prepare medicines for treatment, so everyone is quite familiar with the Medicine Pavilion.

But today, An Jing also smelled some different medicinal smell from the direction of the medicine pavilion... It was an extremely sweet smell, mixed with a little fishy smell, and it felt like it was brewed with mustard, brown sugar and strawberry. It's like beer-cooked braised pork, a smell that shakes people's minds as long as they smell it.

"It's almost time to eat."

Hearing the ringtone, An Jing shook his head slightly to get rid of the strange metaphor that suddenly popped up in his mind.

He called everyone to gather and then led the team to the cafeteria.

Things are indeed different today.

In the astonished eyes of all the children, and in the rich aroma of meat, everyone received a large portion of meat.

Two or three pounds? Or four or five pounds? There is too much meat, some are ribs, some are leg bones, and the meat that has been carefully roasted has a rich aroma.

Its trembling and majestic vibrations give the impression that it will overflow from the plate.

An Jing frowned slightly, not sure if it was surprise or joy, but stared at the meat in front of him.

This was probably the meat of some kind of beast, because the shape of the bones was very strange, unlike any other creature he knew. The rich aroma of oil mixed with the smell of spices and sauces made his stomach squirm violently, and his body was covered in blood and flesh. Trembling and longing, urging him to feast on the flesh and blood in front of him.

But maybe it's because An Jing has been eating a lot of meat recently, so he can suppress his physical instincts.

He swallowed back the saliva secreted by his body and looked around the entire cafeteria.

Not everyone eats the same meat.

Some people, like An Jing, eat the meat of some kind of beast, some people eat the large wings or wing roots of birds, some people eat the internal organs, and some people eat strange insects? There are even seafood like fish and crabs.

But there is no doubt that everyone loves to eat the food in front of them. No one has the slightest desire to talk, and they are all concentrating on eating the meat in front of them.

Eat meat.

There were no other thoughts in the children's eyes, only pure hunger and greed. This raging desire made An Jing shudder, and an inexplicable fear climbed up his spine.

"Anjing."

At this moment, an old voice came. An Jing quickly turned around and found that the owner of the medicine store came to him quietly: "Don't you like it?"

The old man, who was as skinny as a ghost, leaned down, looked at An Jing, and asked softly: "Why don't you eat?"

The young man stared at the deep and dark eyes in front of him, grinned and said with a white tooth, "Mr. Medicine Manor, I'm afraid I don't have enough."

In fact, the meat in front of An Jing was far more than what other boys and girls had on their plates, and was even of higher quality.

This may also be the preferential treatment given by the 'Big Brother'. As the strongest among them all, his treatment is completely different from that of ordinary boys and girls.

So it makes people feel uncomfortable.

"hehe……"

Hearing this answer, the owner of the medicine shop raised his head and laughed inexplicably: "Because you are afraid of not eating enough, do you look at the meat in other people's bowls before eating?"

"What a greedy boy...but don't worry."

The owner of the medicine shop said calmly: "One day, you will be truly full."

"Eat."
