Moved.
The mother elephant took two steps forward, and the baby elephant behind her called out "moo" and held up its trunk to follow it.
They were getting closer and closer to Meng Qingtao, and the distance was shrinking very quickly, and they were in front of them in a few steps.
Meng Qingtao's legs were weak.
These giant objects look like stone sculptures from a distance, and look like a mountain top from a closer look.
Meng Qingtao thought of the mountains he saw when he traveled to Yangshuo, and a heavy feeling of oppression hit his face.
The mountain peaks that cannot be seen at a glance are even more abrupt at night, and just staring at them is already chilling. Just like these angry elephants.
What's more, they can still move.
She has a phobia of giant objects! !
200 meters...170 meters...150 meters...
Is she going to die now? ?
Meng Qingtao thought to herself that she didn't want to die yet, so she came back to her senses and prepared to take a gamble.
But fortunately, the female elephant group changed direction just a second before she took off.
They ignored her and walked around the dead tree where she was hiding, heading to the right.
"..." Now she believed that the elephant's eyesight was really poor.
In order to avoid this group of elephants and avoid another collision, Meng Qingtao gave up taking a shortcut and took a long way.
This road had to go through a sparse forest similar to the place where they camped before. When she got deeper into the forest, she regretted it again.
As soon as it gets dark, the normally normal forest becomes evil. The shadows of the trees are thick, making people unconsciously imagine what kind of dangers may be hidden in them.
"ah!"
She was walking well when she suddenly stepped on a dead branch and made a "clicking" sound, which was very clear in the silence. It did not disturb the animals in the forest, but it shocked herself and bumped her head into it. Hit his head on a tree.
After realizing that she had made a false alarm, Meng Qingtao blushed and walked out of the woods at a faster pace.
After returning to the shelter, she couldn't bear it anymore and took off her long-sleeved coat, wearing only a camisole for ventilation.
Maybe she was too nervous. Even though it was a cool night, she was sweating enough to take a shower.
She squatted down to make a fire without much energy. Xiaoguai saw her like this and went out quietly.
Meng Qingtao didn't notice the lack of movement around her at first. When the flames started to rise, she also calmed down and realized that the shelter was so quiet that the only sound she could hear was her breathing.
"Little boy?"
...
“Little boy??”
...
"Little boy!"
There was no response for a long time, which meant that Xiaoguai left the surrounding area of the shelter.
Her three hundred points! ! !
Meng Qingtao took a breath of cold air, quickly put on her coat, and went out to look for Xiaoguai with a fire stick as a lighting tool.
[Xiao Guai seems to have been away for a while. 】
[The little boy has always been very good, where will he go suddenly? 】
[Did you hear the same kind of voice summoning you? 】
[It is possible that this is the nature of animals. Alas, it seems that Xiao Meng is going to be sad again. 】
Meng Qingtao searched around the cave but couldn't find any sign of the baboon. It was getting darker. What was terrible was that she was still very hungry. Her body, which had not eaten for nearly ten hours, could not support her to go further.
What she was thinking at the moment was that Xiaoguai must be very hungry after eating so little.
Reluctant to give up, she searched the area again to no avail, and Meng Qingtao's worry became even more intense.
The little boy's legs are still injured and he can't run too fast. What if he encounters a leopard? !
She knew that it was dark and she shouldn't take risks and go too far. Moreover, she didn't even know where the little boy was, so she could only hope that it would come back on its own.
But everyone knows very well that on the grassland where natural enemies are everywhere, if the little boy is really injured and gets lost, there is basically no hope of recovering him.
Meng Qingtao was hungry.
Very hungry.
She sat in front of the bonfire, not knowing what to do and not in the mood to eat.
She has only drank two mouthfuls of water since she came back an hour ago, and her stomach is cramping with hunger. In fact, she knows that she should either find some food to fill her stomach now, or she should rest early...
But she was so worried about the little guy that she didn't want to go anywhere or sleep. She just stayed here by the fire and waited for it to come back.
[Pet owners will become dependent on the pets that accompany them day and night. Pets are very important to us. Xiao Meng must be very anxious and guilty now. 】
[Alas, but this is not Xiao Meng’s fault. Who would have thought that such a well-behaved kid would run out while the fire was being lit? 】
[I hope Xiao Meng cheers up, regains his energy soon, and doesn’t abuse himself]
Someone gave her gifts to comfort her. Meng Qingtao was still confused when she heard the system prompts, but she still thanked them: "You don't have to give me gifts... Don't worry, I'll wait for a while. I'll go after a while." sleep."
It had only been an hour and a half since Xiaoguai left... She was waiting for a miracle.
"Squeak!"
Eh?
"Was there a sound just now?? Am I not hallucinating??"
"Is it Xiaoguai??!"
Meng Qingtao was so surprised that she ran to the entrance of the cave, and it turned out to be a little boy!
It was too dark to see clearly, but Meng Qingtao still recognized Xiaoguai's shadow at a glance. It came back covered in mud, with something in its mouth, and was struggling to climb up the stone.
Meng Qingtao stepped forward and caught it, trembling and crying: "My dear, what are you doing?!"
"Is this... lungfish?? My dear, did you go dig fish in the river during the day?!"
Meng Qingtao couldn't laugh or cry, feeling the joy of regaining something in her heart. She thought that the little monster might be hungry, and she didn't prepare food for him, so she took the risk and followed her memory to the place where she dug fish during the day.
She blamed herself so much that she cleaned the fish as quickly as possible, grilled it, and handed it to Xiaoguai.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"
Xiaoguai didn't eat it. She pushed the fish back with her muddy palms and pointed at her belly.
【Oh my God! ! What kind of fairy baboon is this? ! 】
[It’s not that it’s hungry on its own, but it’s taking the risk specifically for Xiao Meng! ! I burst into tears. 】
【Baby is great! 】
Meng Qingtao's nose felt sour: "My dear, are you digging it for me to eat?"
Xiaoguai nodded fiercely, then pushed the fish towards her mouth with both hands.
"Okay, thank you little darling, I will eat it thoroughly!"
She sniffed, holding back the tears and snot that were about to flow out, so as not to let the audience laugh.
Then she started to eat it with big mouthfuls. This fish was sweeter than any fish she had ever eaten before.
From time to time, he would tear off a small piece of snow-white fish meat and feed it to Xiaoguai's mouth. Only when Xiaoguai saw how much she ate did he agree to eat it.
She really kept her promise and ate the whole fish cleanly, even the meat residue on the bones.
After eating, Xiaoguai had already consciously got into his scarf and was about to lie down and sleep with Meng Qingtao.
Meng Qingtao took it out with a serious expression.
Although Xiaoguai went to find food for her and she was very touched, she still needed to be educated, otherwise what would happen if she was in danger next time?
