Chapter 20: Entering the City, and the Temporary Settlement of Friends (II)

Ah Le looked at the friends around him, and checked it again with the client's small map display function, and was relieved a lot, everyone is in a good state now, both physically and mentally.

It should be that the effect of yesterday's aura has not disappeared, and ordinary animals are not in such a good state. In the morning, Ah Le secretly used the map to scan the animals in the village, and the status information they displayed was far from that of his friends.

I don't know how long the effect of the aura will last, Ah Le hopes that it will never disappear, and hopes that the friends will always be able to live a healthy and happy life.

The animals around are very enthusiastic, the dog is quickly wagging its tail and hugging around, the cat rubs Ah Le's leg and Mimi barks, the big rooster even brings a newly caught worm to express his willingness to share with Ah Le, only the pig came the latest, and walked over slowly with something in his mouth.

The fat lazy pig easily squeezed out of his companion and came to Ah Le's side with his fat body. The thing in its mouth Ah Le saw from afar, it was a sweet potato.

It's the sweet potato that Ah Le ate in the morning, and the pig brought it is much bigger. The red skin, the juice flowing from the broken mouth, and the sweet taste in the air made Ah Le secrete saliva unconsciously.

[Can't be greedy, there is something at home, the things in the little brother's mouth can't be robbed, now that he is the boss, he has seen the world, he must be calm, not to mention the remaining half of the pig's mouth. 】

Ah Le, who had a somewhat complicated mental activity, diverted his attention from the half sweet potato in the pig's mouth, looked at his partner next to him, and began to think about the question he had just thought of.

It's no problem to go back by yourself, but now it's inconvenient for this big group of friends to take it back.

There are only twenty contribution points, and the points consumed by taking them on the road yesterday were thirty points, and now only twenty points is not enough at all.

The consumption points of the two skills were not negotiable, and before new tasks appeared, Ah Le didn't know where to get the contribution points.

It's hard for friends who don't have an additional state to take Apu to Apu, Ah Le is just a "dog", compared to all aspects, although he is almost as powerful as a human, but it's still not.

The friends can't be discovered, they will be captured, and they can't walk back slowly, the distance is too far, not to mention the waste of time is not safe, and they can't afford to consume, and Ah Leke can't prepare logistics supplies for their long-distance march.

There is also where Apu, although Ale just wanted to simply throw it to Apu, Apu would find a way, but it was only when there was no choice to do that.

Now that I think about it, I am their leader, if I can solve it, I still don't want to make trouble for Apu, after all, I am also a dog who has become a leader, and I must learn to take responsibility.

The sweet potato in the pig's mouth just now gave Ah Le some inspiration, and Ah Le now has a preliminary idea.

A few calls were made in response to the enthusiasm of his companions, and then sent a message to wait and call them later, and Ah Le began to wander around the valley.

The whole valley resembles a stout bamboo pole that suddenly swells up on one of the bamboo knots.

There are no tall trees on the flat section, only a gentle stream, fertile green land, a waterhole at the end of the creek, and a cave at the bottom of the cliff.

At the bend of the valley floor is a dense forest that stretches out, with unspoiled trees and vines growing freely, and water slowly flowing from the roots of these green plants to form a stream.

Ah Le tried to go deep into the dense forest to find out the situation, but he didn't go far before he felt that it was very difficult.

Fortunately, Ah Le is small in size, dexterous and powerful, otherwise it would not be easy to get out after entering this small forest.

There is no road to this forest at all.

There is no road underneath your feet, and the perennial immersion of the stream has turned much of the ground into a swamp. Looking at the ground with green grass and stepping on it, it is likely that it is a vicious trap, and there are some strange things hidden inside.

The ground is a barrier of trees and vines, with occasional gaps to pass through, but they are also very small and incoherent, and the way out is unless you cut through it with a knife.

Ignoring where the dense forest at the bottom of the valley extended, Ah Le focused his attention on the narrow valley.

She found large patches of sweet potato vines in the valley, and the vines were full of sweet potatoes underneath. There are also wooden houses that have fallen to the ground and are covered with green, radishes in their wild state, and daylilies that bloom in a small flower.

In the distance, you can also see rabbit holes and vole nests.

The rabbits were probably caught by the dogs for breakfast, and only watched from a distance, and the voles were bolder, and they could see a few of them eating sweet potatoes as if nothing had happened.

It was inhabited before, but fortunately it has been abandoned and abandoned for a long time, so it should be no problem to live here temporarily.

After observing the situation and asking the half-dead client, Ah Le gathered the friends in the valley and "said" his thoughts and plans to everyone, wanting to hear everyone's opinions, and everyone's opinions were surprisingly unanimous: listen to the leader's, stay here for the time being.

In fact, Ah Le thought about it, for these little friends, it is enough to have the resources to live, and then follow the orders of the leader, they don't think about many problems, Ah Le's thinking is a little human.

Pigs have food and shelter here, sweet potatoes, radish and tender grass and comfortable caves.

Dogs are happy here, omnivorous and can catch rabbits and voles and occasionally eat vegetarian food.

The cats are very calm, they can catch voles, and the rabbits that the dogs eat have also been shared together in the morning, and they sleep together and squeeze together when it is cold.

The hens and roosters said that it was a good place, with endless insects to eat, endless grass seeds, and no natural enemies to bully them, so they were very satisfied.

With the recognition and support of his friends, Ah Le decided to let them live here for the time being.

This is only a temporary residence, too far away from the mountain village, and there are people who have lived there, if they are found again, these friends will definitely be in danger, she will find a way to move them to Jieshan South Village as soon as possible, the valley where only she can find the entrance is a good place, and when the time comes, you can take your friends and accompany Apu to live happily there.

Commanded the friends to tidy up the cave, found a secluded and hidden fork in the road, and after scanning with the client and found no danger, let them build their nests here, and taught them how to collect suitable weeds, how to dry, and how to build nests.

Then he told them to stay away from the swamps at the bottom of the valley, the deep pools, and to pay more attention to the intersections of the valley, and to hide if they found a human entering.

In the end, the remaining twenty points were used to contribute to the valley mouth and the friends to add a "avoiding the line of sight" effect BUFF.

This effect is not bad, when the friends are still, their sense of presence will gradually disappear, and Ah Le will soon be invisible if he doesn't keep staring. The effect lasts for about three months, which is enough time.

After doing this, Ah Le plans to go back, calculating the time needed on the road, it is almost over, and he has to go back quickly.

Leaving the valley, Ah Le still chose to hang up happily, she likes this kind of fly-like feeling, self in the wind, let go of the body, let go of the mind, relax yourself.

The feeling of "flying" is very good, the speed of "leaping" is very fast, and when Ah Le returned to the county station, Apu and Uncle Jiang had not returned, only the uncle who looked like the old Red Army was there.

The serious old man was still patrolling around the bus, and the folding canvas stool that brought a rest not far away gave way to an old lady waiting for the bus.

At this moment, the uncle is meticulously performing his duties, but his eyes are a little anxious, and his eyes are turning quickly, as if he is looking for something.

It was the familiar yellow light again, and the hateful dog reappeared in front of the uncle.

Familiar dogs, familiar eyes, familiar hate, the difference is that there is an extra mouse in the dog's mouth. When the careful Ah Le came back, he brought a gift to the old man, and wanted to bribe the uncle to help hide the fact that he had sneaked out.

Watching the yellow dog put down the mouse in his mouth and pushed it to his feet, the old man was puzzled, was it a gift for himself?

Leaning over to pick up the mouse, he found that it was not a mouse, but a vole, a wild vole.

Could it be that the dog didn't go to find the master, but went to catch voles outside the city? The somewhat puzzled uncle looked at the dog carefully, trying to find a reasonable explanation for Ah Le.

There is fresh dirt on the paws, which should be gouged rat holes.

There are wet marks on the nose and ears on the body, which should have been through the grass.

The tongue sticks out, the pant is long, and it must have been a short distance.

In the face of some flattering dogs, the old man believed in his own observation and judgment: these two dogs just ran out to catch mice, although they didn't know how much they had stolen, but they also brought a copy to themselves, which was a little conscientious.

Ah Le thought about asking the old man to help hide and sneak away, but the old man understood that the second cargo dog couldn't be idle, so he ran to catch the mouse when he was hungry, and at the same time he brought one back for himself while filling his stomach.

Thinking about it like this, the old and the young, who looked at each other a little kindly, couldn't help but start interacting.

The uncle leaned over to stroke the dog's hair, rubbed the dog's head, and gently removed the debris from the yellow dog.

The dog raised its head and squinted, its tail wagged like a windmill, and it whimpered in friendliness.

Everything is so harmonious, the scene in front of me happened to be seen by Apu and Uncle Jiang, who had just come back, and they (they) were also very happy, their own dog (Uncle Jiang felt that this dog was also his own) was not naughty, and it was a happy thing to be liked.

After chatting with the old man for a while, Uncle Jiang and the others were ready to go out to find a place to eat. It's already noon, and you need to find a place to worship the Five Organs Temple.

During the period, the old man pointed to the mouse at his feet, verbally praised the great spirit of Ah Le Dog to take the mouse, and said that this is a good dog that does not forget its roots, Uncle Jiang and Apu also smiled and responded to invite the uncle to eat together, expressing their gratitude to the uncle, but the uncle refused because he needed to be on duty and could not leave his job without authorization.

In view of the fact that Apu did not find any problems and his physical indicators were super good, and the dog Ah Le was also "honestly" not naughty, Uncle Jiang decided to take Ah Pu and Ah Le to eat an unlimited buffet.

The buffet is a fresh thing that has just appeared in the county, and you can eat a lot of things with only a small amount of money, which is the favorite of the pot-bellied men, and Uncle Jiang has also come to eat a few times, and it feels okay.

Thirty-two yuan per person, after the discount of fifteen yuan per person, it is very affordable. The dishes are also quite rich, they are all fried, although there are not many meats, but the sufficient amount of ingredients also flattens everything.

There are hot dishes all the time, and the soup is a large bone broth that has been boiling, and there are large bones boiling in it, and there is kelp, radish and green onion, which has a unique flavor.

Uncle Jiang took Apu and Ale to find an empty table in the corner and arrange to sit down, and went to contact the shopkeeper, because today's lunch has to be counted separately for Ale.

In the morning, the sharp-eyed Uncle Jiang found out that Ah Le was stealing food, and just now he found that a bunch of sweet potatoes sent by his aunt were missing, and Ah Le's stomach had been deflated, so after asking Ah Pu and learning that Ah Le was a super edible dog, he took him to eat the buffet together.

Uncle Jiang is very familiar with the shopkeeper here, and he is not afraid that the dog with a large amount of food will shout when he is discovered, and he is not afraid that the dog will not eat enough because he has eaten too much.

After paying an extra meal money, the two of them and a dog began to eat, Uncle Jiang and Apu took it themselves, and Aple's share was selected by Apu with help, mainly less spicy, more vegetables with oil and meat and stuffy rice poured with soup, not enough to add casually.

The two of them sat and ate, Ah Le's share was placed in a spare basin for vegetables, the washbasin-sized basin was half full, and then placed on a low stool, Ah Le squatted to eat, and now Ah Le didn't like to put the basin directly on the ground.

After Ah Le started eating, Apu was a little surprised, the corners of Uncle Jiang's eyes twitched, the owner of the restaurant was dumbfounded, and the diners were amazed. Only Ah Le was eating without anyone around, this was already the second pot, and she said that if she could add it, she could bring another pot.
