Rebirth: I can easily control the end-of-the-world game

Chapter 849

"Lan wants to go take a look around," Qi explained. "Instead of us going out alone, why don't we follow the hunting team? With Brother Hai here, it will be no problem."

Hai gave Qi a look that said, "You're very understanding." His long, thick, dark tail slid across the ground, and he came to Feng Lan's side, politely standing half a meter away from her. Because of the support of his tail, he was two meters three inches tall. Standing next to Feng Lan, who was about one meter eighty, he looked petite. His sparkling dark golden pupils drooped as he stared at her. "What are you looking for?"

Hai stared at Feng Lan, his eyes fixed, but without any unnecessary expression, which did not make people feel offensive. "The hunting team has a fixed area and route, which cannot be changed at will. If you are not sure what you are looking for, I can accompany you to find it after the hunt is over."

"We will follow you and won't go far." Feng Lan neither refused nor agreed, but her attitude was very clear. She was polite to Hai but not too close.

"Okay." Hai felt a little disappointed and retreated a little distance obediently. Soon, the orcs who were preparing to travel had gathered.

Most people chose to maintain their animal form. Feng Lan took a look around and found that except for Qi, the other snakes were no smaller than six meters in size. Their scales were smooth, their fangs flashed with cold light, and their bodies pressed against the ground, crushing many flowers and plants. It was obvious that they were very powerful in strangling.

Hai looked around with a cold and serious expression, then glanced at the sun in the sky and said, "Let's go."

The entire team followed Hai silently, with Feng Lan and Qi carefully protected in the middle.

The team advanced at a speed that an ordinary person would need to run, and only after they were ten kilometers away from the tribe did Hai slow down his team. He opened his thin lips slightly, and a long, slender snake tongue came out, making a soft hissing sound. His dark golden vertical pupils carefully observed the surroundings.

Without any words, he made a few gestures and the snakes in the team disappeared quietly.

Feng Lan knew at a glance that a hunt was about to begin. She walked lightly to Qi's side, patted his shoulder, gestured with her left hand, and took Qi away from the team.

Not far away, just about a hundred meters away.

"Is there anything I can help you with?" Qi watched Feng Lan digging in the soil and pulling a handful of weeds, his eyes shining as he squatted beside her. "Is this grass edible?" he asked. He glanced at the grass in Feng Lan's hand and pulled a handful, pulling off a little and stuffing it into his mouth. "It tastes so-so, a bit earthy, not as good as the vegetables raised by Sister Yue."

Feng Lan: "...It's just an ordinary weed," she paused, "not an edible vegetable, nor a medicinal herb."

She pinched off some grass leaves and stuffed them into the analyzer. With a lost look in her eyes, she picked up a branch and stuck it into the soil. After a while, she pulled it out. The bottom of the branch was already wet, indicating that there was an abundance of water resources nearby.

"You can actually find quite a few edible plants by following the density of weeds and the animal trails." Feng Lan saw Qi's somewhat lost look and explained to him in detail, "Plants aren't just for eating. Look at this tree."

Feng Lan patted the bark and motioned Qi to look carefully, "Do you see the oil secreted from this bark?"

"Uh-huh."

"This shows that this tree is suitable for burning firewood. It is more durable than ordinary trees that do not secrete pine oil. If you cut it down and split it to dry it in the shade, leaving it in a semi-dry and semi-wet state, and then put it in the stove, one stick can burn for half an hour, which is more durable than ordinary dry firewood."

In Feng Lan's eyes, the forest is full of treasures. Even though she doesn't recognize most of the plants here, she can still judge based on her experience.

"When looking at plants, besides the surface, we also need to look at the roots and rhizomes underground," Feng Lan began digging again. "The leaves on the surface of some plants are not edible, but the rhizomes underground are well-developed and swollen, rich in starch, and can be used as a staple food substitute."

Not long after digging, Feng Lan picked up a plant with a unique appearance. Unlike a small blade of grass on the surface, there were seeds underneath that looked a bit like peanuts.

Qi looked at it and shook his head, "No, no, you can't eat this. The rhizome is poisonous and will numb your mouth."

Feng Lan shook the soil off the seed, picked one, and casually asked, "Have you ever tried cooking it?"

"This..." Qi scratched his head, "This raw food can't be eaten, so why cook it if it's cooked?"

Well, that means she has never tried it. Feng Lan gathered a little water droplet on her fingertips, washed the seed, rubbed open the shell, and the fruit inside was tender and only the size of a finger. She threw it into her mouth.

Indeed, just as Qi said, once you chew it, your mouth feels numb, like eating peppercorns. Feng Lan chewed it for just a few bites before her entire tongue felt numb. "Xing... I'll try picking some of these seeds."

Hearing Feng Lan's lisp, Qi hesitated to speak, but finally nodded, "Okay."

Alas, he doesn't know as much as the messenger of God, so just listen to her.

Feng Lan always kept a distance of less than 500 meters from the hunting team, and talked a lot with Qi along the way.

Wood with a unique aroma can be used as seasoning. The tips of non-toxic ferns can be pinched and used to make hot pot. Digging deep into the mud near the river reveals a fine layer of soil that can be used to make pottery and even finer porcelain. Small fish and shrimp in the water are caught and dried or fried, so they can be eaten without picking out the bones. The inorganic ashes from burned plants can be used to clean hair or treat wounds. The flowers of some plants can be dried and used to make tea to reduce dryness...

As Qi listened to the knowledge Feng Lan casually spoke out, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and his trust in her increased step by step. He completely believed that if there really was a messenger of God, it must be her!

"You know a lot," Qi looked at Feng Lan with admiration. After a long pause, he used what he considered the highest compliment, "You know more than the high priest!"

That being said, Qi helped Feng Lan, and the two of them picked up a lot of fruits that were obviously pecked by birds on the way to take back.

"Wow-wow-"

"Bam—"

From the distance, hidden in the grass and trees, came the loud screams of animals, followed by a loud bang, a faint smell of blood, and the movement suddenly disappeared.

Feng Lan knew the hunt was over. She glanced at the basket woven from vines and plants on the road. The basket in Qi's hand was also full. "So many things. Okay, let's go back and reunite."

Feng Lan and Qi did not deliberately conceal their movements. They walked back and arrived just in time to deal with the prey. The thick and long snake tail was tightly wrapped around a huge beast. A few drops of blood were splashed on its face and body. Because of the force, the honey-colored muscles on the upper body bulged, the blue veins burst, and the mouth opened, revealing sharp snake fangs. The dripping venom fell on the beast, corroding it with a sizzling sound.

Hearing the noise, he subconsciously raised his head, his animal eyes staring in the direction of the sound.

Savage, bloody, and wild.

"It's you guys," Hai narrowed his eyes, his pupils shrinking back to normal, and he sheathed his fangs. "The hunt is over, let's go back to the tribe first. This commotion was quite loud, and it's likely to attract a lot of animals."

"Okay."

As he was speaking, a snake man had already tied up his prey with vines, and he was carrying the prey weighing several tons on his back as if it were a feather.

"Whoosh-"

Feng Lan heard the noise, took a step forward, and kicked a stone that flew straight towards the sea, colliding with the oncoming arrow. The force of the wooden arrow and the stone shattered the stone, and the arrow also broke into several pieces and fell to the ground.

"What a pity, I missed, Hai. Your reaction now is not as good as before. I haven't seen you for a while, and you are so weak."
