After a while, Bai Chen used his spiritual power to light a fire and built a bonfire.
The cool evening breeze of the forest blew through Bai Chen's hair, and listening to the chirping of cicadas in the forest made people feel relaxed.
The light from the bonfire also illuminated the girl's face.
From Bai Chen's inquiry, we learned that the girl's name was Lin Ling.
is a slave.
God's promptings were well documented for slaves.
Slave: It's what you said in your previous life. Life and death depend on the master's thoughts. Slaves cannot attack the master. However, the death of the master here will not affect the slaves, but will make the slaves become ownerless. Another point is that only monks can change the status and ownership of slaves.
Lin Ling became a slave because she was a war orphan.
Lin Ling's appearance is very delicate, probably because of the devouring of the magic pill, the hideous burns have disappeared without a trace, and the skin is crystal clear and as white and tender as snow.
She has a pitiful little face with delicate facial features, especially those purple eyes that make people's eyes shine.
The weak and thin appearance makes people feel protective.
When Bai Chen informed Lin Ling that the village had been destroyed and there were no survivors, Lin Ling showed no sad expression. Instead, she shook her head crazily and murmured in fear: "I don't want to go back, I don't want to go back -"
"Okay, okay, it's okay, I'm not going back." Bai Chen quickly comforted him.
No wonder Lin Ling was like this. Bai Chen expressed his understanding. A lot of things must have happened to a slave child at such an old age, and his life experience was miserable. Bai Chen could see this from Lin Ling's fearful expression.
But now one thing is not good.
Due to the fire, Lin Ling's clothes were now in tatters, exposing a lot of her delicate skin.
Looking at Lin Ling who was naked in front of him, Bai Chen took off his last nostalgia from his previous life - his own shirt and brought it to Lin Ling.
"Put it on, it gets cold here at night."
He was also wearing a short-sleeved shirt and was not shirtless. Lin Ling could easily get sick like this.
Lin Ling seemed not to hear, and remained motionless, staring at Bai Chen warily.
She was doubting Bai Chen's identity. In the dark forest, Bai Chen's solitary movements, coupled with his handsome face, looked very much like the man-eating vixen that adults said.
The legendary vixens lure humans to take the initiative and then eat them in one bite.
Lin Ling's face turned red. She secretly took a look at Bai Chen's appearance bathed in the spring breeze. Feeling his gentle gaze, she felt a burst of fear and palpitations in her heart, which was extremely contradictory...
An angel said to himself: "You shouldn't be wary of others like this. Big brother is so good. He saved us and gave us clothes. He will definitely not eat us."
Just when Lin Ling thought it should be like this, a little devil said to himself: "Are you kidding me? As slaves, we are not worthy of him being so kind to me. He must want to eat us."
This is how Lin Ling began to fight between heaven and man.
…
This defensive posture is really hurtful.
Bai Chen smiled bitterly in his heart, but he quickly thought of a way to ease the relationship between the two...
"For you to eat."
An hour later, Bai Chen roasted the hare he had caught. The golden color and fragrant oil whetted people's appetite.
Bai Chen observed that Lin Ling was very thin, even a little malnourished, and her face was pale without a trace of blood at the age she should have grown.
His little hands kept covering his stomach.
A warm meal is more useful than anything else at a time like this.
Lin Ling also became interested. A pair of big watery eyes stared straight at the roast rabbit in Bai Chen's hand. Drool hung on his lips uncontrollably. He looked like he really wanted to eat it but didn't dare to come over.
Very cute.
Sure enough, food is the most important at all times.
Seeing that the roasted rabbit was for herself, Lin Ling looked at Bai Chen with watery eyes. I felt pity for him, as if he was saying: Are you really giving it to me?
Bai Chen nodded slightly.
After confirming that Bai Chen nodded and indicated that it was for her, Lin Ling carefully took the rabbit. At first, it was just a small bite, biting on the fat and oily rabbit leg.
The fat melted in your mouth, and what could only be described as a rough roasted rabbit turned into a supreme delicacy.
Lin Ling's pupils were trembling and she couldn't remember the last time she ate meat.
The next moment, she started tearing apart like a wild animal. This scene made Bai Chen's still happy expression freeze.
It’s not that Bai Chen thinks that Lin Ling is not eating well and looks malnourished, so what kind of actions are he thinking about? The point is not Lin Ling’s actions, but...
"The rabbit is undercooked!"
It is too difficult for a modern person to survive in the wild.
How does Bai Chen know what is cooked? He just slaughtered the rabbit and processed the internal organs. The rest was roasted cleanly. The appearance was about the same and he called it a day. He didn't think too much about it.
Lin Ling swallowed the bloodshot rabbit meat into his belly. Lin Ling's white teeth turned blood red. A living vampire looked particularly scary.
"Stop, stop, stop eating, you'll get a stomachache."
Lin Ling completely ignored Bai Chen's advice and continued to tear the rabbit apart, fearing that Bai Chen would take the rabbit back and still put it into his mouth even if it was raw.
Bai Chen could only choose to take action.
Afterwards, Bai Chen processed it over fire and gave it to Lin Ling after he ate it without any problem. Although it had no taste and even had a bit of odor, it was still edible.
Lin Ling, who snatched the rabbit back from Bai Chen, began to devour it again, and the atmosphere between the two also eased.
Bai Chen took the opportunity to put his shirt on Lin Ling.
Lin Ling held the rabbit in one hand and stroked the shirt with the other. Qiong nose smelled the residual smell on it, and her face couldn't help but blush.
Bai Chen couldn't help but be surprised when he saw this.
“How can a shirt keep you so warm?”
…
After Lin Ling finished eating, he waved to Lin Ling to come over.
Although he was scared, Lin Ling still slowly approached Bai Chen when he thought of the rabbit in his hand and the shirt on his body, and looked at the other person's face that looked like he was about to be banished to an immortal.
After approaching him, Bai Chen suddenly grabbed Lin Ling's arm, which made Lin Ling struggle and panic. He hit Bai Chen with a rabbit and shouted, "Don't eat me, I'll slap it in pain."
Bai Chen was puzzled.
He's not a monster, so how can he eat people?
But none of this matters anymore.
Bai Chen's eyes narrowed.
The next moment, a white light flashed, and Bai Chen let go of her arm and said, "You are free."
Hearing these words, Lin Ling looked at her left arm in disbelief. The brand on it had disappeared, revealing her original white and flawless arm.
A pair of extremely clear eyes stared blankly at his arm. Lin Ling opened his mouth but said nothing, and crystal tears kept falling.
The slave brand was on Lin Ling's arm. The ugly brand damaged the snow-white and delicate skin. The brand was now erased by Bai Chen, returning to its original smooth appearance.
Bai Chen didn't comfort or disturb him, he just watched from the sidelines as Lin Ling got free.
At this moment, Lin Ling clung to him, buried her little head in his arms and sobbed. Bai Chen just stroked Lin Ling's back gently...
