Section 123 The same destination
"It's just the medicine to drive away the beasts. The medicine has been used up......"
She said, her voice getting lower and lower.
I don’t know if it’s because I’m embarrassed or because the person I’m facing is Yi Chen, he immediately collapsed with the courage he raised for a while.
“——Like she said.”
Roberts said, stretching out his hand and gently touching Yelena's hair, his eyes flowing with the master's protective color towards his disciples.
"We have been in the jungle for too long, and the medicine that can dispel beasts has been used up. The scent of fire and the smell of cooked food will attract hungry beasts. Before we go out, we can only find some wild fruits as food for the time being."
"...I'm so careless, so are you planning to go to the Black Forest Camp?"
"No."
Robles shook his head, and he pointed his hand at the opposite place: "We are going to the edge village, which is closer, and the price of buying the developing drug powder directly from the beast hunter is much cheaper than buying from the Black Forest Camp, and the journey is also closer, right?"
"Oh...the marginal village."
Yi Chen looked at the two little ghosts: they lowered their heads and said nothing, but they seemed to be biting their lips, trying their best to endure the attraction of the barbecue on the charcoal fire. In a vague way, the sound of stomach acid stirring the stomach could be heard.
"I really can't help... If you want to eat so much, then take it to eat."
"Thank you...thank you!"
Yelena nodded and said to Yi Chen, but the expression and tone seemed to be more apologizing. She carefully took out the barbecue of the jungle-like worms that had been hardened due to dehydration from the charcoal fire, and then tore it into two parts, one for herself and the other for her sister.
(Why do you have to say thank you to him?)
(But... but people left the food for us...)
(...Anyway, sister, don't say thank you to that kind of bad guy!)
The two little ghosts whispered to each other in their own small voice.
"Ha...haha..." Roberts could only hide his eyebrows and use such a bitter smile to cover up his embarrassment.
(Tsk tsk, little devil...)
Yi Chen fiddled with the fire, and his face, illuminated by the crimson charcoal fire, showed a wild smile that only insects in the desert area had:
"Hey, I heard it all?"
"Ah...! Sorry!!"
Sister Yelena immediately said in a crying voice.
"Why do you want to apologize?"
Irina shouted, and she stood up from her position, and a childish face was struggling to write an expression called [狗后]: "You don't need to apologize to the bad guys!" Then, like a demonstration, she took a bite of the meat she had obtained from her sister and chewed it in big mouthfuls.
"...Hey, I'll give you food?"
"I don't care! Bah--!"
She grimaced Yi Chen.
"Stupid little guy..."
"Oh, it's just a joke from a child..."
Robles quickly stopped Yi Chen's storm with a low voice.
"Breaking~~~~~!!!"
Irina grinned at Yi Chen.
"Hmph...stinky little guy, do you care about my behavior just now?" Yi Chen asked her.
The latter still looked at Yi Chen with that hostile and hatred face. She was like an unripe wolf cub. Although she was still very childish, her temperament gradually showed wild violence. Irina bit the barbecue hard in her mouth, and her hands tightly hugged her sister, and her eyes tightly held Yi Chen.
(Don't plan to answer... Forget it.)
The awkward and brief conversation ended in silence.
Because Yi Chen saw something: the barbecue in my sister's mouth was larger than the barbecue in my sister's hands.
He closed his mouth and eyes, as if he was recalling something.
After eating, a slight snoring sound came from the mouths and noses of the two little girls, and they snuggled up to each other and fell asleep. The remaining two men did not sleep. Perhaps in the deep vigilance, they were still vigilant against each other.

The flames licked the newly added wood, burning and pushing out the thin moisture inside, making such a crisp and pleasant sound.
The topic suddenly opened between the two.
"Speaking of this, I haven't introduced my name yet."
Yi Chen said, and while fiddling with the charcoal fire, he said, "My name is [Chen]."
"Oh, Mr. Chen, I'll just call you that."
"Your disciple has a good look." He refers to Irina.
"Ah...she is a child of that kind of personality. She is sorry to offend you..."
"No, no, no, I don't have anything else to say. The sentence just now was a pure compliment. Her eyes were really great. If that child became a Kaishi, her enemies would definitely be eaten away by those who didn't even leave any bones."
Yi Chen said, and before he knew it, his eyes slightly bent and narrowed, as if he was smiling.
"I really miss it. I have seen many guys with such eyes before, but most of them are dead. Because if that look is revealed too early, other adults will feel threatened, and the threat will be strangled in the cradle when they are not growing up - so they are dead."
"...What do you want to say?" Robles' eyebrows gradually twisted together.
"It's nothing, it's just that the child's eyes made me miss the past, and I talk a little more."
Yi Chen smiled at him and said, "By the way, do they have parents?"
“There has been.”
"That's the case, that's an orphan."
"Um."
In this way, the topic stopped again.
"Mr. Chen... Where are Mr. Chen going in the jungle?"
Suddenly, Robles asked.
The dialogue in the second round, the starter has been replaced.
"As I... I'm going to the marginal villages, too."
"Why?"
"It should be a job, I have to go there and negotiate with someone... that's it."
"That's a coincidence... can we get on the road with you?"
"……Why?"
"Because my reserves are no longer enough, and there is no dispersed medicine powder, the number of beasts I have encountered in the past few days has gradually increased."
Roberts smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, I'm a little bad at finding ways in the jungle. Although I am indeed confident to take them out alive, I have to suffer some hardships. The reason for all this is that my teacher is not well prepared. Although I have to suffer a little if I want to become a Kai Master, even if I have to do it step by step..."
"Oh...you're thinking about them very much... What a lucky little guy."
Yi Chen laughed, looking a little jealous.
Then he nodded and agreed:
"Okay, I will bring you yours. But it's not free labor, you have to pay me a reward at that time."
"OK."
