After putting on the disguise, she was very satisfied with her present appearance. She was not in a hurry to go out at present, so she rested in the space instead, intending to go out at dawn tomorrow.
The next morning, when the sky was overcast, she came out of the space and walked in the mountains. While picking herbs, she went down the mountain road to enter the city.
In the early morning, inside the forest, the birds were singing, the leaves were rustling, and the air was fresh. She walked lightly, humming a song in her mouth. Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of something swept past from the shrubs.
“This is called sending meat right to my door.” She whispered, her eyes fixed on the two passing pheasants.
The two pheasants, seemingly unaware of the danger, scurried for a while and stopped again. They were looking around and scratching the ground with their claws as if they were foraging for food.
Feng Jiu saw that there was no one around, so she took out a black net from the space, stepped forward gently, and then threw the black net to cover the two pheasants.
“Caught you!”
She went forward happily, taking out one of them and throwing the other pheasant trapped inside the black net into the medicine basket on her back. She looked for some dry branches and fallen leaves nearby, and began to dispose of the pheasant in an open place, preparing to eat the roasted pheasant in the morning and at noon.
After about an hour, the aroma of roast meat spread throughout the forest. After the pheasant was fully cooked, Feng Jiu kicked some soil to put out the fire and walked directly along the mountain road with the roast pheasant, tearing and eating it.
Walking while eating in the mountains gave her a novel atmosphere. In addition, she now had no destination. With a leisurely pace, a relaxed mood, and good food in hand, she had a totally different mood.
She walked along the path with hands covered with grease due to tearing off the roast pheasant. This image was not very good-looking, but she didn’t care about it. After eating half the pheasant and burped with satiation, she wrapped up the rest. With a quick pace, she followed the sound of the water and planned to wash off the oil stains on her hands.
The water was clear without any fish. The water flowed from the top of the mountain to the bottom. It was crystal clear and only a few fallen leaves were floating on the water surface. The water was clear and cool. After washing her hands, she also washed her face. She wasn’t worried her disguise would be washed off. After all, if she wanted to remove the facial disguise to show her original appearance, she needed to use a medicinal lotion.
“Phew! I’m full.” She sat down on the stone, took off her shoes and put her feet down to soak in the water. However, just then, narrowing her eyes at the sound of a bird chirping at the branch, she felt the breath of strangers approaching.
“Young man, how can you put your foot into the water when you occupy the upper stream? When I was filling some water below, I saw a layer of oil floating on the water surface. I thought it must be your fault. ”
When she heard the angry voice, Feng Jiu pulled up her feet, wiped them with the cloth, and put on her boots. She looked back at the man and saw that he was about 35 years old, dressed simply and had an upright look, but with a bit of anger in his eyes.
Seeing this, she apologized. “I’m sorry, I thought there was no one in this area, so I washed my hands just after eating.”
As she spoke, she automatically came up with a picture of this person drinking her foot-washing water downstream. When she thought of this, her lip corners twitched.
