Li Xiang stopped provoking Fat Bear, and the two of them moved faster.
However, due to the influence of falling leaves, the clues often get lost while walking, and I have to go back and start from the previous steps, which doesn't go very fast.
Fat Bear followed the two of them for more than an hour. Xu got impatient and disappeared into the woods.
I continued to follow the tracks and traveled about four kilometers. I found the tracks of both a fat bear and a small bear on a piece of land, but there was something wrong.
The fat bear's and the little bear's tracks were in opposite directions, and no traces of the little bear approaching the fat bear were found nearby.
Is it eviction?
Normally, a female bear would take care of her cubs for more than two years. Although Wang Qi could not tell the bear's age, he knew that bears gave birth in winter. The cub's footprints were smaller than Li Xiang's palm, and it should be less than half a year old.
Another testimony is the climate. The melting of super-thick snow will inevitably bring about a muddy period. Even if it rains at other times, it is difficult to retain footprints across years. This year’s muddy period has just passed, which means that these footprints are very fresh.
There were no traces of the two cubs walking together along the way, which meant that Fat Bear was just a child. What reason was there to drive the cubs away?
It may be that she has not experienced motherhood for the first time. Or the fat bear has been with people for a long time, and its aesthetics has become distorted, which will also lead to a lack of motherhood. This is consistent with the speculation that it is rejected by the bear group.
Another possibility is that the little bear looks different from a normal bear. According to normal analysis, this possibility is unlikely, but this world is not normal, and the influence of the nodes of the different world is obviously stronger here than in the north.
Remember the URL m.x63xS.
Continuing to follow, there was a ditch, and a large number of bear tracks appeared in the mud on the opposite side of the ditch.
"This ditch is the edge of the fat bear's territory, and the little bear is probably nearby."
"The footprints are so messy, some are big and some are small."
"Let's see."
He stepped across the ditch and knelt down to take a look.
There are a lot of tracks in this area, and there are signs of wandering many times. It is most likely that the little bear was driven out of the territory by the fat bear here.
As Li Xiang said, the footprints may be large or small, and the difference is not big. Wang Qi does not know the specific time span, but it is enough to prove that the cub tried to return to the mother bear more than once, and even grew a little during the period.
The next easiest option is to just wait where you are. Little Bear may come back here and try again.
However, after measuring the size of the footprints with a wooden stick, I decided to take the initiative to find it.
As the size of the little bear increased, its weight did not increase, and the depth of its footprints became shallower. The little thing could not store much energy, and it did not have time to learn hunting skills. At most, it could only chew flowers and grass to fill its stomach, waiting for it to come back. I know if I can wait.
How to find traces in such a mess?
"It may be hiding in a tree hole. Let's look for it separately. Don't go too far. If there is danger, just shout and run here."
"I...I won't look for it."
"...Forget it, let's go together."
It's all because Li Xiang grew up so fast. Recently, Wang Qi often forgets that she has never seen the outside world.
The good news is that her recent growth in height has shown signs of slowing down, and she probably won't end up growing as big as a Tarbosaurus.
There are a lot of little bear tracks that can be found nearby. There are often going back and forth and crossing, so looking for them is basically just a matter of luck.
After the search lasted for an hour, Wang Qi's hearing came into play and he heard a high-frequency and short gasping sound, typical of the breathing of a weak cub. Perhaps he was nervous after being noticed by the two people's movements?
The target was quickly found in a pocket shelter composed of several tree roots exposed on the ground.
It was a cub or not. The moment he saw it, Wang Qi knew why it was abandoned by the mother bear.
The little bear's eyes are red, and the muddy hair all over his body can barely tell that the original color is not brown. He is a typical albino individual, and it is a relatively extreme albino state. Red eyes are more susceptible to strong light damage than black eyes. There is also a sharp horn growing out of its head, which is in a very bad position. This horn will probably get stuck into the belly of the female bear when she drinks milk.
Albinism and abnormal appearance are both reasons for abandoning the bear in the wild. However, judging from the time, the female bear still kept it for a few months. She probably couldn't bear it anymore after her horns grew a bit.
"So dirty!" Li Xiang commented.
The first time he met Wang Qi, Li Xiang was also a dirty kid. After a few months, under Wang Qi's influence, he began to dislike dirty things.
"Dirty isn't the problem, it's dying."
The two people squatted in front of the tree roots. The little bear could only open his eyes slightly to look at them. He made no movement and his breathing was still rapid, as if he was trying to squeeze the last bit of strength from his body.
"Ah!? What should we do?"
"Try to save it."
With horns, he may have been contaminated by another world, but if he can add attributes, it won't be a loss if he can be saved.
Wang Qi didn't mind the dirt and fished the little bear out from the gap.
The body is seventy centimeters long and barely weighs ten kilograms. You can feel the ribs through the mud and half-grown hair.
The plug-in worked, and the force-sensitive body displayed three zeros!
He was indeed on the verge of death, and his limbs had begun to lose temperature. If he was not found today, he would be considered strong if he could survive the whole night.
I can't control whether adding more will further accelerate the loss of nutrients. Otherwise, if the road is bumpy, I may not be able to reach the temporary settlement point.
After finishing adding, Wang Qi took off his coat and wrapped it around the little bear.
"Open both our kettles and pour a little water on the back of my hand to test the temperature."
Li Xiang was also a little anxious and quickly followed suit.
Test the water temperature before proceeding to the next step: "Use my water, feed carefully, don't make the clothes too wet."
There is mud on the little bear's body, which will make the clothes wet, but you can't fill it with water, otherwise it will only lose temperature faster.
The two people, one large and one small, cooperated and fed the little bear some water, but without any nutrition, the little bear's rapid breathing symptoms were slightly relieved.
Wang Qi suddenly thought of something: "Is there any candy on you?"
Li Xiang blinked, still worried about the little bear, and took out a paper bag from his pocket with a few candies in it.
This sugar is homemade. White sugar is boiled to make it brown, and then it is made into small cakes the size of chess pieces on a plate with water, which are the sugar hanging on the candied haws. Sugar is not easy to come by, and Li Xiang’s childhood without the ability to eat sugar is even more pitiful. Soy milk and braised pork are enough to satisfy her cravings once in a while, but there is no chance to use more. Wang Qi specially taught her this method so that she can make some sugar tablets in small quantities. As a snack, alternate with fried beans.
He took a piece of candy and crushed it between his fingers.
His hands were stained with mud, and while he was holding his clothes and not completely drying them, the sugar immediately stuck to his fingers. He touched his fingers to the bear's mouth, and the bear instinctively began to suck.
After sucking all three fingers, the candy was still useful. After a while, the bear's breathing rate further decreased and stabilized.
Wang Qi put his hand inside his coat and found that his heartbeat was still fast, but not as fast as that of Gouzi's cub. It should be no problem to safely return him to the temporary settlement and revive him.
"Do you want to hug me?" Wang Qi asked.
Wang Qi's coat was stained both inside and outside. Li Xiang hesitated, but finally took it. In fact, it wasn't any dirtier than killing insects in close combat.
On the way back, Fat Bear was waiting by the roadside.
Wang Qi pulled open the coat Li Xiang was holding so that he could see the little bear.
It did nothing but make a strange guttural sound of "Gurgulu".
