Chapter 16 Dissecting the Prey

As for the chickens kept around the outhouse, they were simply ignored.

As long as they don't starve to death, they can collect two or three eggs every day. Although this is dispensable for someone like Yunxi who can harvest from the mountain every day, the number of eggs they collect will gradually increase.

I glanced at the vegetables in the garden. I picked them all yesterday, and there aren't many ripe ones left. I plan to come back and pick them again tomorrow.

Coming out of the backyard, I looked at the mushrooms drying in the yard. I took the ones off the mat, planning to dry them for another day tomorrow. I took them all away and then started drying new ones.

The bunches of mushrooms hanging in the corridor seem to be almost dry. I gently squeezed one and felt that I could harvest them tomorrow.

He took a stool from inside the house and sat down directly in the corridor, then took out two steamed buns made from two different types of dough from his storage space.

I don't want to go through any more trouble. I'm just going to eat two steamed buns to pass the time today.

Recalling the memories in my mind, I began to slowly ponder them, trying to absorb and digest those memories and make them my own.

Thinking that there wasn't enough food at home, I decided to pick more mushrooms or hunt some game during this time, and then go to the market to exchange them all for food.

Rumors have been circulating that markets will soon be banned, but Yunxi doesn't know if it's true or not.

She felt it was better to be prepared, so she prepared more food while the market was still open, just in case there wasn't enough for her to eat later.

There are only five days left until I can go to the market. I'll go by myself secretly, so that if I go with other people, whatever I buy will be widely known.

A demon like Yunxi, who has a hoarding tendency, likes to secretly hoard a lot of things. She understands the principle of making a fortune quietly.

After filling her stomach, she glanced at the sky outside. Although it was already dark, to her, as a demon, it was no different from daytime.

Yunxi didn't want to rest so early, so she simply took out the two wild goats and prepared to clean them up while there was still time.

Looking at the two wild goats, the first thought that came to mind was stewed mutton. It seems that the girl used to like stewed mutton, otherwise how could it have influenced me?

It seems that the little girl's memories are merging better and better with her own.

As for the question of whether she would be assimilated, Yunxi never cared. She believed that she, as a demon, was definitely stronger than a teenage girl, and even if she were to devour someone, she would be the one to become stronger.

After all, she had gained sentience and lived for over a thousand years; her soul power was far beyond what a mere teenage girl could compare to.

So there's no need to worry at all during the fusion process. Don't think that the original owner's memories will devour you, making it hard to tell whether you're a demon or a human.

They carefully skinned the goat and removed all its internal organs, leaving only a prepared goat skeleton.

He simply threw the goat into his spatial storage, planning to chop it up when he wanted to eat it.

Seeing the bloody entrails on the ground, he carried them to the well in a basin and slowly cleaned them bit by bit.

Seeing a small patch of weeds nearby, and then noticing the filthy state of the internal organs, I immediately controlled the weeds, making them clean the filth off the internal organs.

After spending about half an hour cleaning up all the internal organs, Yunxi finally felt a slight throbbing pain in her forehead.

It seems my mental strength is still quite powerful; I was able to control hundreds of weeds and keep them working for half an hour. That's really amazing.

He put all the cleaned internal organs into his spatial storage, and then soaked the wild goat skin in a wooden basin.

I plan to soak it for a few more days, and then slowly clean it thoroughly later.

Most importantly, she also needs to find a hunter to learn how to process hides. I remember that my fifth grandfather, Yundeli, was a hunter by trade. He loved hunting since he was young. Although he is old now and rarely hunts, he has not lost his cooking skills.

When I have time sometime, I'll take a rabbit to his place and learn from him how to make pelts.

I knew a little bit of knowledge from my memory, but the girl from before had never done it before, so she didn't really know how to knead the leather into soft fur.

She'll be living alone from now on, and since she's only just started adapting to human life, she feels there's still a lot she needs to learn.

Yunxi plans to learn anything that is useful.

She plans to go to the pig farm in the mornings and spend the afternoons with Grandma Chen and Grandma Huang. At least they are old and know a lot, and she can learn something useful from them.

Yunxi sniffed the bloody smell on herself. After hunting so many prey today, the smell was indeed quite strong.

I went straight to the kitchen and boiled a big pot of water for myself. When I was about to take a shower, I boiled some more water in the pot.

It seems like hot water does have some effect, so storing more is a good idea.

The boiled water was collected into the space and turned into a ball of water, which was placed separately in a small corner.

It can even boil some hot water, or be placed in a separate corner so that nothing interferes with each other. Everything inside is under Yunxi's control, so there's no need to worry about things getting mixed together.

After taking a shower, I put Yunxi's old clothes back on. I really thought these clothes were quite ugly. Even though I'm a demon, demons still have a sense of aesthetics.

It just seemed that everyone's clothes were gray and drab at this time, and even if you wanted to wear some bright colors, it was very rare, as this kind of fabric was simply scarce.

I washed the dirty clothes again and hung them out to dry under the eaves. I'll hang them up again tomorrow when I'm ready to go to work.

Back inside, perhaps because Yunxi had taken over this body, if it were before, she would have been sore all over after doing just a little work, but now, even after a busy day, she didn't feel very tired.

Not to mention wanting to sleep.

He simply took out her school textbooks to see how far the little girl had progressed in her studies.

Since I'm going to school according to her original plan, I should definitely preview the material beforehand, so I don't end up not understanding anything.
