Chapter 121 I don’t want it if it doesn’t taste good.
The three of them continued walking along the river bank for a while, until the road became increasingly difficult to walk on, and there was no trace of Shouchen or He Ci.
It was already getting dark by this time, and the unwilling people searched for a while longer, but still found nothing.
Night had already fallen, and the three had no choice but to find a place to rest.
"Maybe they were just washed away by the river to other places," after finding a dry place to stay and lighting a fire, Chi Yu looked at Shou Sui who was sitting under the big tree opposite and seemed a little absent-minded, and said comfortingly, "Brother He Ci is so capable, he will be fine."
Mo Yuankai roasted a grass carp over the fire, and then proceeded to process another one. After cleaning out some of the miscellaneous internal organs, Mo Yuankai handed the raw fish directly to Shousui.
"Eat something first and don't think too much. It shouldn't be that easy for He Ci to get into trouble."
Shousui raised his eyes with a gloomy look and glanced at the bloody raw fish in front of him. He had felt a little hungry in the evening, but now he had no appetite at all. He said in a dull tone, "You guys eat, I'm not hungry."
He Ci's strength is obvious to all, and Shou Sui also believes that he can deal with the giant mutant piranha. And because Shou Sui had previously made a spiritual contract with He Ci, he could also sense He Ci's heartbeat and feel the fact that the man was still alive.
But even so, Shousui still worried about Heci. Was he injured? How serious was his injury? Did he take good care of his injury? When Heci couldn't find him, would he be as anxious and distracted as he was...
Shousui also tried to summon Shouchen, but Shouchen did not respond to him, which made him a little worried. This was the first time he encountered such a situation, because the zombies he had tamed would definitely respond to his call no matter where they were or what they were doing, and would rush to their master's side as soon as possible.
Otherwise, unless the summoned person is dead, it is impossible for them, as zombie minions that have been tamed by Shousui, to disobey the orders of their master.
However, Shousui was a little skeptical if he was told that Shouchen was unable to receive the summons because he was dead. After all, Shouchen was a level six zombie, a zombie king two levels higher than his master. How could he be killed so easily by a group of piranhas? It was unlikely.
Could it be that there is some force majeure factor that is stopping Shouchen?
"Then I'll put it aside for now. You can eat it when you're hungry later." Seeing that Shousui had no appetite, Mo Yuankai didn't force him. He picked up the lotus leaves that he had picked when he caught the fish just now, and wrapped the grass carp layer by layer to avoid attracting insects and ants.
"Yeah." Shousui responded lightly.
Mo Yuankai changed the sides of the grass carp that was roasting over the fire several times, and the outside of the fish had turned brown.
After roasting it for a while, when the aroma of meat came out, Mo Yuankai picked up a lotus leaf, put the freshly roasted fish skewered on the branch on the lotus leaf, and then handed it to Chi Yu, "Be careful of the heat, let it cool for a while before eating."
Seeing Chi Yu was busy, Mo Yuankai put the fish on the tree stump next to him.
Chi Yu had just peeled the seven or eight wild lotus pods that he and Mo Yuankai had picked. The lotus seeds were big and plump. He used a lotus leaf as a bowl and divided them into three portions. He handed one to Shou Sui first, "Hey, this one is sweet. Try it."
Shousui glanced up and paused for a moment before taking it. Seeing Chi Yu peeling it for so long, Shousui really didn't want to let this kindness go to waste.
After thinking for a moment, he suddenly said to the two of them, "Let's look for it again tomorrow. There's still a section of the downstream that we haven't searched yet. If we still can't find it tomorrow, then we'll go to the destination and wait for He Ci. Anyway, we're all going to Shucheng in the end, and He Ci will definitely go there to meet us."
"Why not expand the area and search for a few more days? Maybe they are in a nearby village?" Chi Yu looked at Shousui with a little surprise. He thought they would stay for a few more days to search for people.
After all, he was also worried about He Ci and Shouchen. Besides, Shouchen was so stupid that he didn't even know how to take a bath. Chi Yu felt that if he didn't urge and help Shouchen take a bath, he might become smelly in two days.
"I'm not sure what He Ci said, but I feel Shou Chen is not nearby." Shou Sui's expression showed a trace of solemnity, "Let's decide this first. If He Ci can't find us, he will probably go to Shucheng first. I can't let him wait too long."
"Okay, we'll all listen to you." Chi Yu responded to Shousui and turned to look at Mo Yuankai, asking for the man's opinion with his eyes.
Mo Yuankai looked at him, then followed Chi Yu's lead and said, "Yeah."
"Now that we've made the decision, let's eat first! I'm so hungry." Chi Yu picked up the raw fish wrapped in lotus leaves in front of Shou Sui and stuffed it directly into Shou Sui's hand. "Even if you have no appetite, you should eat something. If you lose control of your hunger, I will be the one who suffers. I don't want to be sucked dry by you!"
Shousui couldn't help but laugh. He didn't know if it was because his mood had changed a little after he tried to think about He Ci and Shouchen's situations in a positive way, but now he had some appetite.
"If your blood doesn't taste good, I would have rejected it. After all, I'm a very picky eater. I will never drink a drop of blood that doesn't taste good." Shousui said with pretended disdain.
"Go ahead and complain. I'm happy that I don't have to suffer." Seeing that he could argue with others, Chi Yu must be in a much better mood. Only then did he feel relieved.
Chi Yu turned around and handed another handful of fresh lotus seeds to Mo Yuankai.
