Chapter 141 The Tusachi People
"What is this?" Kukoc asked Lei Jun in surprise, greedily inhaling the rich aroma in the air.
They wished they could bury themselves in the aroma right now. Kukoc's father was even more exaggerated, jumping around like a monkey among his brothers who were preparing food, coughing and fussing over them.
Lei Jun smelled the familiar aroma, and his mouth watered uncontrollably. It truly felt like an eternity after just one day apart; he had been craving it terribly since yesterday's meal.
He gazed at the familiar hot pot with two broths and said to Kukochi...
"Hot pot—let me show you our delicious food! It's a pity we have beef and lamb rolls, and fresh vegetables, otherwise I could let you experience this heavenly bliss."
Lei Jun was starving just thinking about it; now he could only afford to eat bacon, instant noodles, potatoes, and winter melon.
Since these are the easiest to store and carry, the logistics department prepared these for them.
"Beef rolls, lamb rolls? Meat from three-eyed cows and four-horned sheep? I can send someone to deliver a sheep and a cow~" Kukoc's father interjected upon hearing Lei Jun's words.
Lei Jun, recalling the memorable incident from yesterday, waved his hand, wanting to refuse.
Yufei was faster than him and innocently asked Kukoc's father, "Uncle, are you delivering live sheep and cows?"
"Yeah! I was lucky today, I hunted a lamb and a calf, but I haven't had a chance to get a professional to butcher them yet."
Kukoc's father suddenly remembered that the creature hadn't been dissected yet, and in his excitement, he offered to give it to them—how rude of him! Kukoc's father awkwardly scratched the back of his head and said he'd have the butcher dissect the two little cubs for them the next day before bringing them over.
Yufei wanted exactly the undissected specimen, especially a cub! This would allow her to confirm her suspicions; cubs were likely much smaller than the animals they'd seen in the wild that day, making dissection much easier.
This was exactly what she needed. Her eyes sparkled as she looked at Old Man Kukoc, indicating that this was exactly what she needed; she didn't need anyone else to dissect it! She could try.
Kukoc and his father didn't believe that this girl, who looked only 15 or 16 years old, could do such a bloody thing.
Seeing the little girl make this request, Lei Jun and the other adults who came with her didn't react much, seemingly having great confidence in her. They didn't say much either. Kukoc's father stretched out his arm, on which was a silver metallic halo.
Kukoc's father tapped on it, and a holographic image popped up: a muscular man with a square face and a long scar running from his right forehead to his lower left jaw.
The scar didn't make the man look scary at all; on the contrary, it made him exude masculinity, which could be felt even through the holographic projection.
I don't know if this kind of man will be popular with women, but he's definitely the envy of men. Lei Jun and his ilk are green with envy; when will they be able to have such a burst of testosterone like this man? Isn't this the masculine beauty that they men are pursuing?
It's unclear whether the call hasn't connected yet or what, but the man's eyes are closed as the phone rings a few times.
The holographic projection opened its eyes, revealing a pair of wild, piercing, and fiercely expressive eyes.
Yufei and the others felt that those eyes could see right through them; every secret they held seemed to be laid bare under his gaze.
Lei Jun and the others couldn't help but take a step back under his gaze. Then, as if remembering something, they nervously touched their noses, watching Kukoc's father chatting with that man.
Kukoc smiled knowingly at Lei Jun and the others, his attention now focused on the phone call between his father and uncle.
"Tusa! Bring the two little brats we hunted today to this address! Come and have a good meal!" Kukochi's father, unlike his brother who was all pretentious, ordered him without any politeness.
"Delicious?! Hmm! I knew you were coming." A deep, resonant voice rang in everyone's ears. Yufei felt that this voice was not like the deliberately spitting sound made by people in later generations.
The low-frequency sound made Yufei's ears tingle; it was so pleasant! But why did Yufei detect a hint of excitement and eagerness in that seemingly emotionless voice saying "I know you're here"?
Could this wild, testosterone-fueled man be a glutton?! Yufei looked suspiciously at the area where the screen mirroring was already off.
Kukoc's father shook his head helplessly. His younger brother always revealed his true colors when there was something delicious to eat.
He checked the time and said to Lei Jun
Do you have a slaughterhouse here?
Lei Jun and Qi Huang exchanged a glance, quickly found a few benches, and pieced them together to form a rectangular slaughtering table. It was quite rudimentary, but Yufei said that this would suffice.
She turned and went back to her room, taking out six butcher knives of different sizes and shapes from her spatial storage.
The knives were neatly placed in a leather case that Aunt Xia Chan had specially sewn for Yufei. Yufei took the set of knives out and showed it to Lei Jun and the others.
With a "whoosh," as Yufei drew the knives one by one, they emitted a series of clanging sounds, celebrating their return to the world.
The cold, gleaming blades, shining brightly in the sunlight, were a sight to behold for Lei Jun and his men, seasoned veterans of battlefield combat. The sight of this butcher's knife was striking.
I feel like using these knives to slaughter livestock is a waste of their potential! These are top-quality cold weapons!
If you gave them that set of knives… their eyes would burn with a passion even more intense than when they see a stunning beauty.
Men, including the Kukoc father and son, can never resist such a cool weapon!
Yufei didn't pay much attention to their stares. She went back to her room, took out a whetstone, and sharpened the already sharp butcher knives, making them even sharper.
"Bang!" Just as Yufei was concentrating on sharpening her knives, the gate to their yard was kicked open.
Immediately afterwards, a man about 2 meters tall walked into the courtyard carrying a three-eyed cow on one shoulder and a four-horned sheep on the other.
Reaching an open space, he shrugged, and the cow and sheep slammed heavily to the ground, emitting painful cries.
"Brother, which master is dissecting these two little guys? When did a slaughterhouse open here?" Tusa asked curiously as he unloaded the cattle and sheep from his body.
That cello-like voice was even more beautiful than the one in the holographic projection; it was truly amazing.
"Uncle, I'm here to dissect these...two 'little' guys." Yufei looked at the cattle and sheep that were the size of a small mountain, and she was speechless. These were still 'little' guys! They were even bigger than the adult cattle and sheep in her dissection space!
However, she wasn't panicked; she could still perform dissections. It was just that she thought it might be a bit difficult with adult three-eyed cows and four-horned sheep.
"You?!" Tusa looked Yufei up and down suspiciously, who wasn't even as tall as his waist. Where did this little baby come from?! Is dissecting animals a joke?!
