At that time, Granny Li walked over with a smile, "Well done, you two youngsters. Indeed worthy of being heroic youths, those merfolk after being ruthlessly slain, should behave for a while now.
Seeing that it's nearly noon, this old woman doesn't have much to offer, only some porridge and baked salted fish. Would you two care to try some?"
The two looked towards the direction of the thatched hut and indeed saw a pot of porridge cooking over an outdoor fire, with a few salted fish being roasted.
"Granny, there's no need for courtesy, we have brought our own food so please help yourself."
"Then I won't stand on ceremony." Saying so, she took out a small knife and began to dissect the merfolk's bodies, cutting off a few pieces of meat and packing them away.
When the three returned to the front of the thatched hut, the boy looked at Granny Li with a troubled expression.
"Granny, are you cutting the flesh of those merfolk to eat again?"
