Chapter 10: In Danger Again
"..."

Feeling Paimeng's strange gaze, Yu Keke unconsciously shrank her body, as if only this could give her some sense of security.

Paimeng looked at it for a long time. Yu Keke had a small butt, and it was obviously impossible for her to hide her tail in her worn cotton pants.

"Cuckoo~"

Curiosity drove her to ask, but her stomach growled.

"Woo... Traveler, I'm so hungry." Paimon shrugged his small body and looked at Sora with a wronged look.

"How about we take out the remaining food in the pot and eat it? It's a good opportunity to treat Coco to some delicious food from Teyvat!"

I thought I could have a full meal when I went to the home of my first new friend in this different world, but I didn’t get to go home and didn’t get to eat.

But luckily she has a backup hidden energy source!

That was the spare food she left with the travelers in Teyvat!

It is to prevent situations like the current one from happening, so that she and the travelers will not be hungry and have to look for food everywhere.

"What kind of delicious food is this?"

When Yu Keke heard that there was food to eat, her eyes lit up. She hadn't eaten for a whole day, and when she heard about food, especially delicious food, her appetite was aroused.

"Hmm~ There's sweet flower-stuffed chicken, Teyvat fried eggs, golden finger-licking chicken, almond tofu, desperate grilled fish... and my favorite, fried meat with honey-glazed carrots!"

Paimeng sucked his saliva as he spoke, and Yu Keke also swallowed continuously in her throat.

The food Paimon mentioned sounds delicious.

While the two were fantasizing, Kong nodded and used his mind to communicate with the space to summon the Chen Ge Pot, but after trying for a long time, there was no movement.

"What's wrong, traveler? Are you planning on eating it secretly by yourself?"

Seeing that Kong didn't move for a long time, Paimon put his hands on his hips and looked at Kong angrily, as if to say, "You want to eat alone?" Paimon was very angry.

"..., the Chen Ge pot is lost."

Sora spread his hands and said helplessly.

The Chen Ge pot that Grandma Ping gave me seemed to have been swept away by the spatial turbulence when it was crossing space. Now there is no response at all, and no one knows where it has ended up.

"Ah! What should I do now? There are still so many Moras that Paimon has saved!"

Paimon's face fell and he said resentfully.

"That's my Mora."

The corner of Kong's mouth twitched. He felt it necessary to remind this person who was spending 300,000 Mora of his own money every month on emergency food.

"It's all the same, what's yours is mine, hehe~"

"What should we do now? Traveler, please think of a solution..."

Paimon scratched his head, trying to change the subject.

"I saw a lot of game on the way here. How about you and Coco wait here while I get some to grill?"

"Yeah! Barbecue, barbecue! But I want to go with you~"

Paimeng nodded happily, then looked at Yu Keke and said:

"But if I leave Coco here alone..."

She couldn't help but worry about Yu Keke.

"So, you and Coco wait for me here. It will be quick."

Kong estimated that there was a jungle not far from the village, and there should be food there.

With his years of experience in scavenging, hunting wouldn't take long and he would be back soon.

"Okay, then you better come back soon."

After thinking about it, Paimon decided to take care of Coco, his new friend.

After all, if she stayed here alone, she would be very scared.

"Brother, be careful then."

Yu Keke spoke weakly, he knew that hunting was a dangerous thing.

Once, his father was bitten when he and his friends went hunting in the mountains. He spent more than half a month recuperating at home before recovering. "Yeah." Kong nodded, walked out of the thatched hut, determined the general direction, and disappeared into the night.

…………

In the jungle outside the Star Dou Great Forest, a ghostly figure shuttled through it, and in front of him was a rabbit fleeing in panic.

The figure was none other than Kong. He was holding a stone in one hand and throwing it at the fleeing rabbit.

The inconspicuous stone flew out with a sound of breaking through the air. The rabbit that was originally fleeing only heard a puff and fell to the ground, and there was no sound anymore.

"Four should be enough..."

Sora came over to the fallen rabbit and picked it up, muttering.

Originally, one each would have been enough to fill us up, but considering little Paimon's appetite, we bought one more.

"Buzz~."

A purple soul ring lit up on the rabbit that Kongti was holding in his hand. He waved his hand casually, and the soul ring dissipated between heaven and earth.

He knew that this was the unique martial soul ring of this continent, and it was the main source of soul skills for the soul masters of this world.

But for him who has no martial soul, it has no effect at all.

At most, he could sense that the elemental power in the space around the dissipated soul ring had become more abundant.

"Traveler! Uwaaa! Where are you, Traveler?!"

"It's little Paimon's voice!"

There was a faint shout in the distance, and Kong didn't stop for a moment, running straight towards the source of the sound.

Rustle~.

Kong rushed out of the jungle, bringing up many broken branches and weeds, but he didn't care about much and continued to run wildly towards the source of the sound.

“Ouch~.”

Paimon was flying in a panic and kept looking back, which caused her to bump directly into Kong's arms.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

Sora threw the rabbit to the ground, picked up little Paimon and asked with concern.

"Wow~ Traveler..." Paimon burst into tears when he saw Sora again.

After experiencing two dangerous situations in one day, her small body could hardly bear it.

But she knew that now was not the time to release her emotions, so she continued:

"Traveler, there are a group of bad guys who want to capture Coco, go and save her."

"Okay, let's go quickly."

Sora didn't put Paimon down, but instead carried her towards the thatched cottage in the village where they were just now.

As we approached the village, we saw smoke and dust rising from the direction of the thatched houses and flames shooting into the sky.

When we ran to the thatched hut, we saw a crowd of villagers gathered around it. Some were whispering to each other, while others were carrying buckets and pouring water into the hut in an attempt to control the fire.

Seeing this, Kong let go of Paimon and used the power of the water element to suck water from the stream outside the village directly and sprinkle it onto the thatched house.

The fire that was growing more and more fierce was put out in an instant.

“A miracle, a miracle!”

An old man holding an oil lamp and leaning on a cane walked out of the crowd, constantly exclaiming in admiration.

Then he bowed to Sora and said:
"Thank you for putting out the fire! If the fire had continued, I'm afraid our village would have been burned down..."

Just as Kong was about to help up the old man who kept thanking him, Paimon flew straight into the ruins.

"Paimon!"

Seeing this, Kong waved to the old man and rushed in with Paimon.

"Ahem, wow... Traveler, Coco..."

Paimon was choked by the dust remaining in the air of the hut. His little hands kept slapping the half-burned hat in his hands that was emitting white smoke, and tears in his eyes could not stop welling up.
