Chapter 3 Life is Limited

  It's all right. Grandpa goes hunting, I make food. We each have our own work. Life is very peaceful here. It's great. After experiencing so many things, it's completely different from before. It's like becoming a different person. Tranquil and at ease. Looks like she's become a pretty good girl.

  It's great here. There's no better place in the world than here. The old man is praising himself, not stingy at all, for always living in this place.

  Yes, yes, yes. Grandpa was right. But there are just too few humans here. Mo Yier felt a little sentimental.

  This is natural. Humans don't have wings, how can they fly up here? The old man has a slight disdain for humans. In his mind, humans are weak and small. He won't sympathize with them.

  Mo Yu'er didn't say much more. The old man was just that kind of stubborn person. If she said any more, they would probably end up arguing again. She didn't want to start arguing on her first day here.

  As the sky grew darker, Mo Yier was destined to go hunting with Lao Tou and Que Ling. After all, for the past few days, Xiao Rong had been carrying her while flying, which would be tiring. Xiao Rong was her man, after all; she wouldn't pity anyone else if not him.

  The little furball also obediently went to rest. He knew the ferocity of his own woman. There were no particularly fierce beasts here. He knew that Mo Yier could completely handle it.

  Grandfather, Mo Yu'er also wants to take me with him. Si Mula asked. Here, he doesn't have to pretend to be a woman anymore. Going hunting is his duty. Moreover, for the past few days, he has been sitting on Cai Feng's back and should exercise his muscles too.

  Alright, come on. Let old man me see if you're a strong man or not.

  Xī mò lā nodded and followed Mò Yì ér and Lǎo Tóu.

  There are many animals in the forest. They have a choice when hunting. The old man said he wanted to eat Mo Yi's wild chicken mushroom soup. So Mo Yi used a slingshot to shoot wild chickens.

  Silmar said that the wild bison came to eat. The meat of the wild bison is the most replenishing for human energy. Although people at this time did not know what it meant to replenish energy, they could feel that eating wild bison meat would bring great strength to humans. It had been a long time since Silmar had exercised his muscles and bones by hunting. He had almost forgotten this feeling. When he spotted the wild bison and went after it, he suddenly remembered that he had always liked this feeling of chasing after prey and running wildly. Many memories were brought back. His masculine mode was also fully activated.

  The old man saw that the two young people were full of energy, so he handed over the hunting task to them and went to pick mushrooms and wild vegetables himself. He chose his favorite type of mushroom. Tonight, they can have a good meal.

  Chu Fen's cooking skills are not bad, but they can't compare to Mo Yi Er's. Mo Yi Er always manages to come up with many variations, making the food taste more complex and interesting, which he loves very much.

  Shot two pheasants. Mo Yier found a hollow tree and took some leaves to extract the sap, which was used as seasoning for dinner.

  Although Sumala hadn't hunted for a long time, after several hours of effort, he finally managed to hunt down a wild bison all by himself. In fact, hunting wild bison isn't any easier than hunting wild boars. The phrase "ox temper" is indeed true. Bison have more endurance than wild boars and require extremely high hunting skills to take down. It was only then that Mo Yier realized that if Sumala had continued to live as a man in the tribe, his legendary exploits might not have been surpassed by Chu Yan and Fan Weng.

  But his figure is much shorter than that of the average man, at around 178cm tall, which would be considered very tall and powerful in the 21st century. However, here, most men are over 180cm tall, and some women are also so robust. Therefore, Silmara was classified as being short in stature.

  The sky was slightly dark. A few people brought back the harvested food to their resting place. Xiao Rongqiu had slept for a while and woke up. He thought this shed made of leaves was not bad. Mo Yier would definitely feel comfortable sleeping inside, so he started building one.

  Chu Fen has lit the bonfire and the water in the clay pot is boiling. Seeing Mo Yi Er and the others return, they hurriedly went to greet them and took over the handling of the game. The wild ox was very large and one person couldn't handle it alone, so Mo Yi Er also followed along.

  They walked to the lake shore. Only the two of them were there. Xīnfēn suddenly said to Mòyìér: "Mòyìér, I was wrong to treat you like that before. I'm really sorry."

  Mo Yu'er shook her head and smiled: "Actually, you haven't done anything excessive. I won't take it to heart. You've been living well here. I hope in the future you'll take good care of Grandpa. He's getting older."

  I know, I will. Chufen nodded slightly. She had thought about this issue too. And every time there was leftover food, she would store it away. Maybe one day Grandpa would pass away. At that time, she would have to rely on herself. She was grateful that she was sent here. There were no ferocious beasts here. Even if hunting was a bit difficult, there were wild vegetables to eat. She could always survive.

  En, maybe one day you can go back down the mountain. But as for when exactly, I'm not clear. Mo Yier thought for a moment, if one day she created her own kingdom, it wouldn't be impossible for Yu Fen to join. She's a young woman, good for having children and continuing the lineage. Of course, it wasn't just about letting Yu Fen have children for her kingdom. If one day Grandfather were no longer around, living here by herself would also be very difficult.

  I hope that day will come. Xīnfēn is not particularly eager to go back. She used to like Stella, but since she found out that Stella was a woman, she has been confused. How could she have fallen in love with a woman? What was she thinking?

  Mo Yu'er didn't say anything more. If she didn't want to leave this place at that time, she wouldn't force herself. But a woman can't be alone for her whole life. Maybe Stella's affair would have a great impact on her. But she will always find her true love and then give birth to children.

  Chu Fen is here. It's a trial process for her life anyway.

  Mo Yi'er. That slingshot grandfather said it was your idea. You're really amazing. Can you teach me? Chu Xun suddenly made such a request.

  Why learn?

  I also want to become stronger. I want to be able to hunt by myself.

  This idea is great. I can certainly teach you. But grandpa will also be able to. Why don't you come learn from him?

  Grandpa always says I'm a woman, as long as I cook for him, that's all. Actually, I know grandpa's body is getting worse day by day. He needs more time to rest and doesn't have the energy to teach me. Xīnfēn's eyes dimmed slightly. Even though they haven't spent much time together with the old man, but here they rely on each other for survival. They already treat each other as family.

  Oh... Mo Yuer heard such words, her heart began to feel a pang of sadness. Even the strongest Golden Lion will one day leave this world. Life is always so fragile and fleeting. All she can do is cherish the present and use her limited time to fulfill her dreams.
