"What the hell!" Li Rui lowered his head and looked at him, secretly frightened in his heart.

The fact that this unknown creature was able to get so close to him without being heard by him showed that his strength was not to be underestimated.

"Hey, kitten, can you give me back the pine cones?"

A childish voice sounded in the tree, and the vigilant Li Rui's eyes couldn't help but turn into beanie eyes.

"This voice... You sent it?" Li Rui was a little puzzled.

"Poof, you're talking so strangely, are there any other animals here?"

The dark shadow in the tree sneered and stood out from the shadows.

When Li Rui heard his words, he also felt that the question he asked was indeed a bit silly, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

After the creature came out of the leaves, Li Rui saw it clearly, and it turned out to be a little squirrel.

couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, after all, the size of the squirrel is not big, Li Rui felt that he could still control the situation, the only surprise was this squirrel, he could understand what he said.

"Is this?" Li Rui picked up the pine cone, hesitating, he was too hungry now and needed to replenish some energy.

Looking at the pine cone that Li Rui grabbed it, the little squirrel's eyes suddenly lit up, and he nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, that's it!"

Li Rui's eyes rolled, and he had an idea in his heart.

"Ahem, little squirrel, look, this pine cone is the one that hit my head, right?" Li Rui said with a serious expression.

The little squirrel was a little hesitant, staring at the pine cone in his hand with a pair of bright eyes, but he still nodded, indicating that what Li Rui said was right.

Li Rui saw that this little squirrel was so simple, his heart was overjoyed, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned.

"Should this pine cone be used as a gift for smashing me? or, did you throw it?"

Li Rui was induced step by step, and finally had some thoughts of throwing the pot.

"It's not me! I don't! Don't talk nonsense!" When the little squirrel heard Li Rui smash the pot on his head, he was so frightened that he hurriedly shook his head, his body stood upright, his two little paws kept shaking, and his eyes were vaguely visible and a little crystalline.

Li Rui looked at the little squirrel and was about to cry out in fright, and sighed in his heart, this child is still too simple!

"Well, since you didn't throw me, then this pine cone is mine, right?"

At this point, Li Rui was a little unbearable in his heart, this way of asking for pine cones, he was afraid that he would never use it again for the rest of his life, and he felt a great sense of guilt in his heart.

The little squirrel looked at the pine cone pitifully, but still stopped asking for the pine cone, although he was very reluctant.

Seeing the little squirrel's reluctant but resolute expression, Li Rui's heart still softened, and he told the little squirrel that they could be half of the people.

After hearing Li Rui's words, the little squirrel opened his big eyes, and the joy that was visible to the naked eye appeared in his eyes, and then he was happy again.

He jumped straight down the pine tree, came to Li Rui's side, took the pine cones, and then after a meal, the pine nuts inside were placed on the ground one by one.

After confirming that there were no more pine nuts in the pine cones, the little squirrel reluctantly threw the pine cones aside.

Then he peeled off the pine nuts with Li Rui with a happy face.

A squirrel, a cat, just like that, you and I divide it one by one.

In the end, the two received a total of 50 pine nuts.

It's not much, it's a lot, it adds up to only a hundred, and the normal pine nuts are as much as 0.2 catties.

After the little squirrel finished dividing the pine nuts, he stuffed all his share into his mouth, stuffed the two cheeks to the brim, and bulged out.

Li Rui only shook his head amusedly, then found a flower that looked like a pitcher plant in the grass, broke it, and put away his share.

The little squirrel happily took the pine nuts away, while Li Rui lay down under the tree, broke a pine nut with his paws, and exposed the kernels inside.

The pine nuts are plump and shriveled, and the yellowish skin is lightly oily.

Without thinking much about it, Li Rui threw one into his mouth and chewed it slightly, his mouth was full of a faint fragrance.

Li Rui eats like this, although the pine nuts are small, they are indeed rich in nutrients.

Before he knew it, he ate only the last few pieces.

He hesitated, and instead of eating them all, he left two for Garfield to try, as a reward for last night's gift.

Although this little pine nut kernel is not very useful, it is light and affectionate!

He glanced up at the sky, a few hours before the moon disappeared, and was about to go home.

After eating something and feeling a lot of energy, he tried to run......

"Whoosh..."

A black shadow flashed through the grass, and Li Rui stopped in shock and looked behind him.

The grass behind him swayed slightly, but Li Rui didn't feel the wind.

He tried to run a little more.

This time it was different, and when he was paying attention, he could see that he was running twice as fast as usual!

For example, it used to take three seconds to reach 10 meters, but now it can be reached in half the time.

This terrifying increase in speed made Li Rui a little overwhelmed.

Because, if he runs at this speed in reality, he will look different compared to other cats.

Li Rui also understands that the reason for his speed mutation is estimated to be in these pine nuts.

But he was a little strange, why he could clearly feel the changes in his body when he ate honey, but he didn't feel anything when he ate pine nuts?

He looked at the remaining two pine nuts, hesitated, walked back, and made a mark under the tree where he had picked up the pine cone, making sure that he would be in the next place.

This pine tree will be his fortune tree in the future, a powerful renewable resource.

Of the remaining two pine nuts, he plans to keep one for Garfield, and take the remaining one to the clan land to see what he can get in exchange.

It's not that when he saw the miraculous effects of pine nuts, he changed his mind and wanted to leave one of Garfield's two of himself.

Instead, he wanted to take it to the clan land, so that Philip could see what it was called, what it was worth, and so on, and then exchange it for something that would enhance him.

Well, he's still a cat......

In the woods, he continued to practice his strengthened body, and it was not until he came out of the woods that he was able to initially master his abilities, of course, it was not uncommon for him to lose control and hit his head on the trunk of a tree occasionally.

Fortunately, my physique has been enhanced, otherwise I would have to be stupid if I hit it like this.

Li Rui rubbed the bag's head with palpitations.

After leaving the forest, this time he did not choose to go home immediately, but waited at the entrance of the cave.

He was going to give him the pine nut kernel.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for him to see Garfield coming from afar, after all, that kind of size is really conspicuous.

"Hey, little brother, are you waiting for me?"

In the distance, Garfield's words were heard in the air, and the voice dissipated somewhat.

"Come here, I've got something good for you!"

Seeing this, Li Rui waved his paw at him, then took off one of the pine nuts hidden in his toes and put them on the ground.

"What is it?" Garfield said as he got closer, looking at Li Rui suspiciously.

"I'll show you this!" Li Rui ran triumphantly through the grassland.

A blurred black shadow was left on the grass.

It's a reaction when vision can't keep up with the speed.

Garfield looked at Li Rui in surprise, and then slapped him on the head as he ran back from a distance.

"Hold the grass... It hurts, it hurts!"

Li Rui was lying on the grass, his head against the grass, his tears were about to come out in pain, and he hurriedly asked for mercy.

He couldn't figure out why Garfield was able to press him to the ground so precisely when he was at high speed.

The corners of Garfield's mouth curled slightly, and a pair of dead fish eyes looked at Li Rui at his feet, and smiled, "You're still a younger brother......!
