Chapter 113: Dyed Into Myriad Purple And Thousand Red
The little fox-type beastman’s baby teeth only left a shallow tooth mark on Gray’s arm in the end.
Before Su Ran could even worry, Gray pinched its little cheeks with thumb and index finger, and its little mouth automatically opened.
After freeing his arm, Gray didn’t do anything else to the little guy.
He just symbolically let out a warning-like soft roar at it, then tossed it not far away.
Then before Su Ran’s “ai” could leave her mouth, she saw the little guy “pu” unfold the snow-white little wings behind it and leisurely land on the ground.
Gray looked at the little beastman who, after landing, aggrievedly hugged its own big tail, and coldly “hmph!” ed,
then pointed at it and turned to Su Ran:
“A Huo’s, ‘s……wu?”
He thought for a long time but couldn’t figure out how to say the little guy’s identity.
Finally remembering that Su Ran hadn’t taught him this word, he tilted his head doubtfully and looked at Su Ran.
At this time, Su Ran could basically determine that this little beastman was definitely from the same family as A Huo, just not sure exactly what relation to A Huo.
But Su Ran thought it should be the brother.
After all, up to now, she hadn’t seen any other female beastman appear by A Huo’s side, so A Huo probably didn’t have a companion yet.
So it couldn’t be A Huo’s child.
After tossing the little beastman out, Gray didn’t pay attention to the little beastman’s movements anymore.
It was clear that compared to adult male beastmen approaching Su Ran, his tolerance for male little beastmen cubs was still quite high.
Of course, this tolerance only meant the little guys playing by themselves on the side, not approaching Su Ran.
If it made any move to approach Su Ran, it would be mercilessly picked up by Gray again and tossed out!
And Su Ran was only expressing her fondness for the cute little guy at the beginning.
At this time, after the excitement passed, she yanked a sausage from the ones just hung up, handed it to the little guy, then hurriedly went in to mix the minced meat for the pork sausage.
There were three large wooden basins of red-skinned pork minced meat, which Gray had already chopped and put inside the house.
Su Ran still needed to chop the finger onion to be used in the minced meat.
The pungency of finger onion was no less than onions on Earth.
Just now Gray insisted on trying to chop some himself, and now he was already lying on the roof crying.
Even the little beastman who had been following behind Su Ran with pattering footsteps didn’t know when it also tearfully lay down next to Gray.
And Su Ran, who was quickly chopping finger onion inside the house at this time, wasn’t much better off than the two.
Because there was a lot of minced meat, a lot of onion was needed.
At this point, including what Gray had just chopped, they had only chopped less than half of the required amount.
But the tears in her eyes were already accumulating so much she could hardly see the cutting board in front of her.
So two minutes later, Su Ran couldn’t hold back and rushed out of the house quickly.
After she came out, Gray jumped down from the roof.
When he saw Su Ran’s appearance, the person and wolf faced each other, with both their eyes red and bloodshot.
These onions were finally chopped by Su Ran and Gray taking turns, and it took over half an hour to finish.
And most of that time was spent running out of the house to cry!
After the onion was chopped, Su Ran divided the chopped onion into three portions and poured them into the wooden basins of the three basins of minced meat.
Then added salt powder to the minced meat, leaf paste of sweet leaf vein tree leaves mashed with stone, and a small amount of chopped seafood, then stirred the minced meat in one direction.
After stirring, they started stuffing the prepared filling into the small intestines.
Because they had already stuffed one basin of fish sausage earlier, now stuffing pork sausage, there wasn’t enough small intestine left.
So after stuffing all the remaining small intestines, Su Ran fried all the leftover minced meat into meatballs.
When Su Ran’s last pot of meatballs came out, the sky outside had already darkened.
A couple days ago, Su Ran had piled up a fire pit half a meter high and only one square meter in area in front of the long table where things were drying.
At this moment, fire was burning in the fire pit, and the flames illuminated a large area of the open space in front of the house.
And on the open space, there were two little beastmen who didn’t know when they ran over, playing and frolicking with the little beastman from A Huo’s family.
Su Ran was quite familiar with these two little beastmen.
They were the twins from a goat beastman family in the cave under the tree when they lived in the woods before.
After the meatballs were fried, Su Ran scooped the oil in the pot into a small basin with a spoon.
Then after washing the pot and cleaning up inside the house, she wrapped some fried meatballs in a few small sweet leaf vein tree leaves and gave them to the three little guys.
She didn’t give more sausages.
Those were to be saved for Gray to eat.
But these fried meatballs were already very delicious!
After receiving the food from Su Ran, the three little beastmen played here for a short while longer before running off together.
Before leaving, they called out “ying ying ying” and “mama mama” a few times to Su Ran, who was sitting on the animal hide blanket.
Through Gray’s translation, Su Ran knew they were saying, “We’re going back to sleep, we’ll come find you to play tomorrow~”
She kept watching their small backs until they were indeed heading toward the settlement before she finally relaxed and withdrew her gaze.
Once she could no longer see the little ones’ figures at all, Su Ran suddenly stood up from the blanket!
After standing up, she thought for a moment, then suddenly sat back down.
Then she pushed the Gray lying next to her: “Gray, go take a bath.”
“Woo~”
Gray lazily hummed, waited a second, then got up and walked toward the riverside.
Tonight, the moon overhead was very large and bright.
Unlike Earth’s “moon with its waxing and waning phases,” the moon on this continent always maintained its round shape.
The only two changes were the intensity of the light and the size of its shape, which varied with the seasons.
And now entering summer, the moonlight was much brighter than during spring!
Su Ran sat on the animal hide blanket, her gaze falling on the black figure standing at the riverside ahead.
At this moment, the moonlight was bright, shining on the water surface, where the water ripples sparkled in the night like a fairy tale dreamscape.
Su Ran watched the distant black shadow’s actions until he turned around and walked toward her step by step.
Each step he took seemed to tread on Su Ran’s tangled and hesitant nerves.
The heartbeat in her chest was so loud it seemed to cause her tinnitus.
Gray’s figure, drawing ever closer with each step, seemed to urge her to make a decision quickly.
Tension filled her brain, so much so that when she came back to her senses, her whole body was already soaked in the river water.
She felt the slightly cool water flow brushing lightly over every part of her body, lifted her head, and the blue planet hung overhead.
“Gray.”
She was in the water, calling out to her beastman who was quietly sitting on the animal hide blanket on the slope not far away, waiting for her.
As soon as she spoke, the werewolf’s figure quickly appeared at the river beach.
It crouched at the riverside, looking toward Su Ran; in the night, its eyes flashed and reflected the light.
It gave Su Ran a puzzled expression: “Ran Ran?”
Those eyes were pure and clear, without any impurities.
Su Ran’s heart stirred.
In an instant, the desire to dye this blank sheet of paper with a thousand colors and hues overwhelmed the last trace of hesitation in her heart.
She gently exhaled, then met Gray’s gaze directly; under Gray’s puzzled stare, she slowly, bit by bit, stood up from the water and walked toward it…
