Night slowly fell, and darkness shrouded the forest.
A blood moon rose into the sky, and the pale red moonlight quietly sprinkled over the mountains and the sea. The whole world was soaked in the blood light!
Zuo Yi looked up at the night sky and did not find any signs of stars.
This once again confirmed his original guess.
There was not a single star in the clear night, which meant that this was a small world independent of the plane. As for the size of the space, that still needed to be explored further.
Bonfires were lit in the goblin village. The goblins held long wooden ladles and sat around the bonfires to share their dinner. They used their homemade pots to cook their food, stewing the wild herbs, plant roots, and animal bones and meat that they had gathered.
It sounded good, but in fact, these pots all emitted a sour smell. God knew how many rotten ingredients were in them. It was a completely dark cuisine.
But the goblins were already used to it.
But there were also some goblins whose dinner was much better. They found Cai Xiangming and the other backpackers and received the Demon Bull Jerky as a reward from Zuo Yi. Now, they were happily cooking beef soup.
The Demon Bull Jerky was too tough. These goblins spent a lot of effort to cut a few pieces of meat. They almost broke their teeth when they chewed, so cooking soup became the best choice.
The fragrant beef soup also made the other goblins envious and jealous. There was no harm without comparison.
The five backpackers who survived the disaster cried in each other's arms and fell into an embarrassing situation with their stomachs rumbling with hunger.
They were teleported to different places by the light door, and each had a different experience. Although they were lucky to be saved, the equipment and supplies they brought with them were either lost or destroyed by the corrosion of the world's laws. Now, they did not even have clothes to wear, and could only rely on the goblin's animal skins to cover themselves.
Fortunately, Zuo Yi, who was communicating with the old gnome priest, noticed the embarrassment of the group. He took out a soup pot, a few bottles of mineral water, and five buckets of Master Kang from his space ring and gave them to the group so that they could eat instant noodles.
Zuo Yi's Space Ring had been expanded once, and its storage capacity had been greatly increased. Therefore, he had stored a large amount of daily necessities, including food, water, and so on, in case of emergency. Anyway, it was empty.
The shelf life of the food and water stored in the Space Ring was very long, and under the protection of the Space Ring, it would not be affected by the laws of the world. Now, it came in handy.
The backpackers were overjoyed. They quickly boiled the water to cook the noodles. Soon, the bowl of noodles was ready.
All of them ate until their faces were covered in tears. They felt that the Braised Beef Noodles with Soy Sauce, which usually made them want to vomit, was so delicious!
"What do you want?"
"I will kill you!"
"Die!"
At this moment, a few Gnomes at the side suddenly started fighting.
One of the goblins hugged the clay pot tightly, ignoring the punches that landed on his head and body. He poured boiling hot beef soup into his mouth with all his might, looking like he was going to risk his life to eat a pufferfish!
Seeing this, the old gnome priest flew into a rage. He gripped his bone staff and roared, "All of you, stop!"
The goblins, who were in awe of the priests, quickly stopped fighting. Only the one holding the pot was still drinking the soup. He bit the meat into his mouth, chewed a few times, and swallowed it.
It was too fragrant, too fragrant!
His greed for the Demon Bull Meat made him ignore the old priest's orders. He also did not notice that his body was expanding.
His muscles bulged under his rough skin, and his veins wriggled like earthworms. The bones of this goblin let out a dense sound like beans being fried. His two eyes were so swollen that they almost popped out of their sockets.
His ferocious and terrifying appearance made his companions around him shrink back subconsciously, feeling an inexplicable fear!
He was looking for death!
Zuo Yi could not help but shake his head.
He could tell at a glance what had happened to this goblin. He immediately got up and walked over, kicking the goblin.
Bam!
The goblin, whose body had expanded by a lot, was kicked into the air by Zuo Yi like a kite with a broken string. Then, he exploded under the crimson moonlight, turning into pieces of flesh and blood that scattered in the forest.
They had become nourishment for the earth!
It was not that Zuo Yi was cruel and bloodthirsty, but that this goblin had drunk too much of the Demon Bull Meat Soup. He had also swallowed the meat that contained powerful energy. As a result, his body could not take it, and self-destruction was inevitable.
The Demon Bull was a Legendary-level demon. Its meat was a great tonic. Only a Legendary-level Magical Beast like Teck could eat it as a meal.
Zuo Yi had kicked this goblin away to prevent others from suffering.
After witnessing the fate of their companions, the goblins were all trembling in fear. They were in extreme awe of him.
"Tell them to be careful …"
Zuo Yi said to the old goblin priest, "Don't drink too much of the meat soup at once."
This tribe of goblins had been subdued. They had helped Zuo Yi find a few of his lost companions. In order to make the goblins more useful, he had taken out the Demon Bull Meat Jerky as a reward. He wanted to nurture stronger cannon fodder.
The goblin that had self-destructed earlier was a guinea pig.
The old goblin priest nodded like he was pounding garlic. "As you wish!"
After dealing with the goblins, Zuo Yi turned to Cai Xiangming and the other four companions. He said, "Rest early after eating. Tomorrow, I will ask them to find a way back. If they find it, I will send you back to the Bluestar."
Cai Xiangming and the others were dumbfounded. They only came to when they heard Zuo Yi's words. They could not help but look at each other.
Cai Xiangming tried hard to swallow the noodles in his mouth. He asked carefully, "Mr. Zuo, this is not the Bluestar?"
What a load of nonsense!
Zuo Yi nodded and said, "It's another world. Don't think too much. I will definitely bring you back."
He had been to many plane worlds and was very experienced. He was not just comforting them.
"Then …"
Cai Xiangming gathered his courage and asked, "What about Meng Licheng and Shao Yong?"
Meng Licheng and Shao Yong were the two companions that had not been found. He was worried that Zuo Yi would give up on the search.
"There are still goblins searching outside."
Zuo Yi explained, "They will continue to search tomorrow. Don't worry."
It took only one afternoon for the seven companions to find five of them. This meant that they were not far away when they came in. Otherwise, it would not be so simple.
The other two had not been found. It was possible that they had an accident or ran too far away.
Zuo Yi could not do anything about it.
Speaking of which, Cai Xiangming and the others were very lucky. When he accidentally transmigrated to the world of Sadeya, the items and supplies he had on him disappeared in a very short time. He had a worse start than Lord De.
Cai Xiangming was not someone who did not know what was good for him. He said sincerely, "Mr. Zuo, thank you!"
Zuo Yi waved his hand. "You are welcome. Rest early. Everything will be fine."
