The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 104
[Chapter 104: Getting Ready to Go In]
“Let’s go quickly, there should be a lot of secrets here!” Lin Tian said.
Several people began to search around, but because the hill was too mysterious, they were worried that there was a fraud inside, so they just wandered around the periphery.
After wandering around, they really found a lot.
The periphery of the entire hill had many traces of human life, and even some rotten tools.
“This axe is so old, it looks like it was just thrown here some time ago.”
Lin Tian picked up an axe, which had become bumpy, but not rusty.
It seems that it was thrown here recently.
Lei Ting and Lei Dian found a lot of things, and Lin Kang even found a pot on the other side!
“It seems that someone really lived here, and those legends outside are all false!”
Lin Tian said categorically. They just wandered around here and found that there were many marks in the hidden places, which should be to prevent getting lost.
And these living tools were thrown in the bushes or corners by others, and they found a lot of them because they searched carefully.
These things were thrown in such a mess, obviously because others thought that no one would ever come here, so they were so casual.
However, people outside did not dare to come in. This place was said to be so magical, just like a monster that could eat people.
Several people searched for most of the day, and now it was getting dark.
“Let’s rest first, we don’t have to be too anxious, it’s very dangerous in the deep mountains and forests at night.”
Lin Tian glanced at the gradually darkening sky and suggested that everyone should find a place to rest.
Because this small hillside is small, it took them a lot of time to walk around carefully.
Lin Kang’s hands were already scratched by those branches, and even his face had some scratches.
He might be the one who wanted to prove himself the most, so he found the most things. He
even found an entrance!
But because it was a little late, Lin Tian and the others didn’t plan to take risks, so they planned to go in from this entrance the next day.
“Lei Dian and I will catch some pheasants!”
Lei Ting said. The food they ate today was the dry food they brought from the Lin Mansion, but those were just to fill their stomachs.
The energy needed by the body still depends on meat to maintain, and the people present are all grown men. How can they have strength without eating some meat?
Lin Tian nodded slightly and let them go.
The place where they are now is still a little close to the stream, so Lin Kang felt that he had nothing to do and ran to the river to catch fish.
Lin Tian found some tools to make a fire and also found a few huge leaves.
Soon the fire was rising, and the night gradually fell. The little fire became the only light in the dark night.
“Why did you catch so many?” When the two brothers Lei Ting and Lei Dian came back, Lin Tian saw that they were holding a lot of prey in their hands and asked in confusion.
He was boiling water in a big pot at this time, and there was a broken little wood next to him, which was filled with lively fish.
Lin Kang caught a lot of fish and brought them back, mainly because the fish here were so easy to catch, and he couldn’t help but catch several.
I thought that these fish would be wasted if I didn’t eat them tonight, so I prepared to put some back into the river.
Unexpectedly, Lei Ting and Lei Dian also hunted so many things back, there were two or three hares alone.
Lei Dian was holding two pheasants in his hands, and a bunch of wild fruits wrapped in a cloth.
Lei Ting was holding three hares in one hand, and a handful of unknown herbs in the other hand.
“Where did you find these?”
Lin Tianyi’s eyes lit up when he saw the green plants in Lei Ting’s hand.
Aren’t these wild pepper and cumin?
Although the roasted hare they ate in the morning was fragrant, it was only seasoned with salt, and the taste was relatively monotonous.
However, Lei Ting has found these seasonings now. If you add them to the cooking, it will be delicious!
“When I followed King Jing to survive in the wild before, I found that these would be very fragrant when added to food. I saw them today, so I picked some back!”
Lei Ting explained. Seeing that the water in the pot had boiled, he put all the dead pheasants and hares in it and began to pluck and skin them skillfully.
Seeing that they were working hard, Lin Kang also came to help.
“Why did you bring back so many things? We can’t finish them all!”
Lin Kang said while working.
“I have to go in tomorrow, so I guess I can’t grill meat like I do now. It’s good to store it to satisfy my hunger.”
Lei Dian explained simply, and looked at Lin Kang with contempt.
Lin Kang burst into tears, and his face was messy in the wind.
Well, now not only the young master thinks he is stupid, but also Lei Dian and Lei Ting think he is stupid!
He will not live!
Lin Kang thought sadly while processing these wild game.
Lin Tian smiled knowingly. Sure enough, the two brothers Lei Ting and he thought the same
thing. He had thought of this when he went to find dead branches to make a fire just now, so he picked a few large leaves and came back to wrap the food.
The packages they had prepared could hold the food.
Although there was still some oil paper, there was not much, and they could not store much.
The few people had a simple meal. Lin Tian also kept some cumin and peppercorns, ready to take them back to the Lin Mansion to make some delicious food for them.
These things can still be saved. When the time comes, someone will be sent to the mountain to find these two seasonings, and some new foods can be developed!
While thinking, Lin Tian planned what to do next.
After they had a simple meal, the three of them, Lei Dian, took turns to keep watch, while Lin Tian slept soundly.
Lin Tian knew that he could not beat these three people on this point, so he simply let them go. It was easy for him not to keep watch.
The next morning, the few people woke up, ate something casually, and started to walk towards the entrance that Lin Kang found yesterday.
“Why is this place so gloomy!”
Lin Tian felt something was wrong as he walked. The outer layer was full of dead branches and leaves, and the trees were all dead.
But the further they walked in, the denser the forest became. It actually became a dividing line.
The outermost circle was dead trees, while the inner part was a jungle!
This was obviously man-made, and no one knew who made such an arrangement.
“Be careful, there might be danger!”
Lei Ting said while vigilantly observing the surroundings. He had learned a lot of mechanical techniques from the group of secret guards around King Jing, and his intuition told him that there must be some mechanical traps here.
