Chapter 102: Roasted Turtle
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When Bai Lin helped Yan Ruo deal with the wound caused by the palm leaves yesterday, she was even more certain of her guess.
He could not be the mysterious man who helped her deal with the wolves.
She liked men who were strong and bold, but Yan Ruo was extremely weak, and she only had the desire to protect him.
Although she would sometimes be entranced by his appearance and blush, that was a normal reaction as a woman. It was not a big problem.
At this moment, Yan Ruo who was dressed neatly came to her side, wanting to help her. Bai Lin did not feel as awkward as she did yesterday, and naturally handed the branch to him.
“Sharpen it.” Bai Lin stood up and focused on the front. “I think I see a rabbit.
After she finished speaking, she did not wait for the others to react and immediately ran toward the opposite side.
Fan Feng and Lin Sen were not the kind of people who would sit back and enjoy the fruits of others’ labor. After getting up in a hurry, they also rushed over.
When they arrived, the rabbit was trembling in Bai Lin’s arms, Fan Feng exclaimed, “This rabbit is so big!’
Bai Lin did not feel the joy of a successful hunt. She petted the soft fur on the rabbit’s back and let it go, even chuckling and saying, “I wish you a smooth journey. Be careful not to get caught.”
The rabbit stayed on the ground for a few seconds and quickly darted away.
“Lin-jie, are we not eating it?” Fan Feng was puzzled.
Bai Lin dusted off the dust on her hands. “The rabbit’s pregnant. It can’t be eaten.”
“Why?” Lin Sen asked.
“All living things have spirits,” Bai Lin said, “This is the rule of the forest. You can’t eat pregnant animals. Otherwise, you’ll be cursed.” [What is kindness? This is kindness!]
[Compared to my Lin-jie, Bai XTs acting is too obvious.]
[The rabbit is so cute! Lin-jie even wished the rabbit well at the end. It’s really touching.]
[Bai Lin is a principled person. She’d never do anything that crosses the bottom line of human nature. Unlike a certain someone who acts one way on the surface but does another behind her back.]
(Are you talking about our Xixi? Don’t speak between the lines. Xixi’s kindness comes from the inside. Bai Lin didn’t do anything because of the rules, and she’s pretending to care about the little animal. She’s the real hypocrite.]
[Bai Xi actually still has fans. Could it be that they hire paid posters? Mods, check it out. Don’t let the paid posters pollute our Lin-jie’s livestream.]
The person who slandered Bai Xi did not say anything else after that.
After the rabbit was sent away, Bai Lin did not plan to return empty-handed.
The birds from last night had long been digested, and they still had to hurry on their journey today. Of course, they had to eat something good to nourish their bodies.
She looked around, and her eyes lit up. She suddenly rushed towards a huge rock Then, she dug out a huge turtle from under the stone.
She happily showed it to Lin Sen and Fan Feng. “Breakfast’s here. Roasted turtle, rich in nutrition.”
Fan Feng had eaten stewed turtle before, but he had never eaten a roasted one. He could not help but swallow his saliva and took the turtle from Bai Lin’s hands.
“Lin-jie, how do we make this dish?”
Bai Lin answered, “Cover it in soil and throw it into the fire. Then, wait for half an hour and peel the shell open.”
“Beggar’s chicken seems to be cooked this way too? Just that it’s buried in the soil,” Lin Sen replied.
Bai Lin laughed. “The turtle’s meat is fresh and delicious. You can also cook it like the beggar’s chicken, but it’ll cook faster if you burn it directly on fire.”
Lin Sen touched his belly shyly. “Lin-jie is so considerate.”
When they returned to their temporary camp, Zhou Guang, Yan Ruo, and Jin Ran had already set up a fire.
Fan Feng was at the back. Zhou Guang did not see the turtle in his hand, so he asked, “Sis, shall we cook instant noodles for breakfast?”
Bai Xi thought for a moment. “Sure, we can cook the noodles while roasting the turtle.”
“Turtle? Where?” Zhou Guang asked in surprise.
Fan Feng held the turtle and showed it sincerely. “Look, it’s here. My Lin-jie caught it.”
Zhou Guang ruffled Bai Lin’s hair. “Our little expert hunter can rest at the side. We’ll take care of the rest.”
Bai Lin did not fight with him, but she did not stay idle either. She went to ask Yan Ruo for a harpoon.
The harpoon was already sharpened. Bai Lin touched it and looked at Yan Ruo in surprise. “Not bad, you cut it really quickly.”
Yan Ruo seemed to smile with a deep gaze.. “Is there a reward?”
