Little Red Riding Hood looked very happy. She ran over with a basket, pulled out the ax nailed to the tree, and kicked the tragically dead giant bear.
"Uncle, can you make bear paws?"
"This... will be done naturally."
Of course, Paine doesn't know how to handle bear paws, but when faced with a person who can easily chop off your head, you have to say yes to things you don't know how to do.
"However, this fresh bear paw cannot be eaten immediately. You have to dry the blood with paper, then prepare a large jar with lime as the bottom, then cover it with a thick layer of wheat, and place the bear paw around it. Then stuff it tightly with wheat, seal it with lime on top, and leave it for a year or two before taking it out, washing it, and cooking it. When burning, apply a thick layer of honey and cook it on a low fire for an hour, then wash the honey. Go, put the ingredients, stew over charcoal fire for three days and three nights, and after you open it, you will have fragrant bear paws!"
"Is it so troublesome?"
"It's really troublesome. If you don't do this, the bear's paws will be fishy and smelly, making it impossible to eat."
Hearing Paine's eloquent explanation of how to cook bear paws, Little Red Riding Hood nodded, "What about other places, like this piece of hind leg meat?"
Paine was a little desperate, because his so-called knowledge of cooking was really only a little bit, and he was limited to cooking instant noodles and quick-frozen dumplings. In my previous life at Blue Star, the most I could do was go out to BBQ with my friends, and every time I used oil, I could cause a big fire. It was obviously too much to ask him to cook the meat of a bear that had just been chopped to death.
"this……"
Just when Paine was at a loss, he heard a faint sound coming from around him.
"Get back to the road!" Little Red Riding Hood threw the ax into the basket and ran towards the mainland. Paine followed him without thinking.
The rustling sounds around him became louder and louder.
"Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho!" A strange breathing sound came from the bushes behind him.
This weird sound of breathing made all the muscles in Paine's back tighten, and all the hairs on his body stood up!
Fortunately, Paine was not far from the main road, and he returned to the main road after jogging a few steps.
"Uncle Ronald, you must move faster in the forest. Everything in the forest has a good nose. You should just cut off a few pieces of meat and run to the road quickly. Those guys can't set foot on the road during the day. "
Little Red Riding Hood walked up to Paine, her pretty face and blood-red eyes showing a hint of dissatisfaction, "Now we have no meat to eat, and that big stupid bear will be fed to those hoho beasts!"
"Hoho beast? What the hell is that?" Pan En was shocked.
"A common creature in the forest. They are hatched in the soil under the black willow tree. They look a bit like dogs and make a sound of 'ho ho ho ho', so they are called ho ho beasts."
"Uncle Ronald looked back and knew that the Hoho beasts were having a meal."
Paine took a breath and turned around. Although he had made some mental preparations, the sight in front of him almost made him think he had traveled through time again.
Little Red Riding Hood was right. This thing did look like a dog, but it looked like a dog that had been skinned and rotted for several months. It looked very much like a zombie dog.
"Little Red Riding Hood, are you sure this Hoho beast won't come up and attack us?"
Although these hoho beasts, which looked very much like zombie dogs, were not big in size, they brought far greater psychological pressure to Pain than the giant bear just now. Especially when they dragged out the giant bear's internal organs and competed with each other for the bear's large intestine, it was so disgusting that Paine almost vomited.
"Of course not." Little Red Riding Hood pinched her nose. The little girl didn't like the fishy smell. "The Hoho beast is much smarter than the big stupid bear, and he won't rush onto the road during the day."
More than a dozen hoho beasts were eating the giant bear's body crazily, raising their heads from time to time and issuing warning "hohohoho" sounds to the two of them.
"What kind of creature is this Hoho beast in the forest?" Paine felt a little embarrassed when he saw the Hoho beast in front of him eating the giant bear into bones at an alarming speed.
"Uncle Ronald, do you have common sense?" Little Red Riding Hood said in a tone that said there was nothing he could do about you, "One hoho beast is not scary, but three hoho beasts can try to hunt larger prey, such as that The big stupid bear will definitely run away when he sees three hoho beasts before he reaches adulthood. If there are more than a dozen hoho beasts like this together, there will be almost no opponents in the forest."
From this point of view, this Hoho beast is equivalent to the status of a wolf in the real world, so what is the wolf in the story of Little Red Riding Hood?
"Let's keep going. There is a relatively safe open space ahead, where we can find some berries to eat." Little Red Riding Hood said, "There is a small pool there. We can wash our faces and refresh ourselves."
The road to the clearing in the forest went very smoothly. Just as Little Red Riding Hood said, those hoho beasts were busy eating the giant bears and had no interest in chasing them on the road. The two of them walked for a while and arrived at the clearing in the forest. .
Little Red Riding Hood became very happy as soon as she arrived here. Instead of picking berries, she was busy gathering flowers. In her words, she was——
"I want to make a flower basket for grandma so that her illness will be cured soon. Grandma likes flowers the most."
Paine thought to himself that if Little Red Riding Hood didn't like to chop people with an ax so much, he would indeed be a good boy.
After a while, Little Red Riding Hood came back humming and jumping up and down, but the content of the song was a bit weird.
"Liz Borden took up the axe,
Cut her father forty times.
When she realized what she had done,
She chopped her grandfather forty-one times. "
Pan was sweating profusely. What kind of children's song is this? A children's song about killing people?
"Well, uncle, you picked a lot of berries! Little Red Riding Hood is very hungry." Little Red Riding Hood put the basket on the ground. The cloth on the basket was now filled with flowers, covering the handle and still stained with giant bears. The ax to the brain.
Little Red Riding Hood directly picked up the berries that Paine had washed and put them in her mouth.
Then he said with a grimace, "It's so sour!!!!"
Before Paine could answer, a man's voice came from far away, "Is it Little Red Riding Hood?"
Who is this? Paine was very surprised. But his question was quickly answered. A middle-aged man in hunter's attire came over. He was carrying a bow and a quiver. He had a beard, flaxen curly hair and square Chinese characters. His face looks like a loyal man.
"It's Uncle Hunter." Little Red Riding Hood looked a little happy, obviously meeting an acquaintance.
Paine also breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be the hunter, who should be a positive character in the story. But then he thought, since Little Red Riding Hood has collapsed into Axeman and Little Red Riding Hood, what kind of person will this hunter be?
