Chapter 234: The Shattering of Dreams of Eating and Living
The dream demon slowly floated towards the pangolin that was exposing its claws, "Dream, dream." β
However, the pangolin immediately used its flying sand legs, causing a large amount of dust to fly, and then retreated with its companions.
The temple watched the movements of the mountain rat and thought deeply.
The pangolins appear to be quite wary and seem to be very afraid of outsiders.
Because if it's a tail force, it will definitely pounce on it and come to a paw first, even if the pangolin is indeed timid by nature, but this is also a bit unreasonable.
In addition, as far as he knew, pangolins should not be good at night, and most of them would hide in sand pits at night, but he looked around and found that the environment here was much more humid than the outside, and it was not like a place where pangolins liked to live.
Although they also need to eat bitter berries, they have no habit of caring for them, and there is a pool of water here......
The hall thought for a moment and said tentatively, "The dragon king scorpion outside has disappeared. β
"Huh?!"
When the pangolin in the lead heard this, it quickly responded, and it immediately rolled its body into a ball, and then rolled violently forward.
Soon, with a high-pitched shout, "Whew! Phew!! β
The other pangolins rolled out as well, and only the youngest one glanced timidly at them and slowly ran towards the darkness.
"I see."
Concubine Yue Ji looked indifferent, "I saw a touching scene, and I saw a despicable scene, and I had complicated feelings." β
Dian smiled, he didn't have so much sentimentality, in a sense, this was also a fragile ecological cycle, but now it was broken by them.
If he was not mistaken, the owner of this oasis was probably the dragon king scorpion, and the pangolins were just laborers who were bound here by the dragon king scorpion to take care of the bitterberry trees.
Of course, the 'hostage' must be the young pangolin, because if the other rolling pangolins insist on escaping, it is estimated that the dragon king scorpion will not be able to intercept them all, but it doesn't need to be like this, as long as the young pangolin that can't roll can be controlled.
In this way, the other pangolins cannot leave, and naturally in order to survive, they must take care of these bitterberry trees.
For the dragon king scorpion, it is also a lot easier, and using the oasis as bait, it can obtain more prey, which is simply a lot of one stone.
Therefore, despicability refers to the action of the dragon king scorpion holding the young pangolin hostage, while moving is the behavior of the other pangolins not abandoning the young.
But......
"Will they be better off than they are now?"
Rarely, Concubine Yue Ji looked at the disappearing figure in the distance, and a trace of hesitation appeared in her turquoise pupils, "Freedom, sometimes it is not without a price." β
"In terms of survivability, in the desert, pangolins are definitely the dominant existence, plus they are PokΓ©mon, which are much stronger than humans."
The palace took out a thick dress and put it on Concubine Yueji and prepared to start cooking on the fire, "Besides, the worst-case scenario is just to fall back into a new ecological cycle." β
He placed his backpack in front of him as he began to prepare food for the PokΓ©mon first, "After all, you can't expect the Dragon King Scorpion to take care of these delicate bitterberry trees on its own. β
Although it is okay to eat only bitter berries, it is also a rare first day in the desert, and you still have to eat a good meal.
"Indeed...... Poof......"
Concubine Yue Ji suddenly laughed, she pulled the coat she was wearing outside, "If Dianjun grabs food with a pangolin, it is estimated that without the help of the dream demons, he will definitely not be able to grab it." β
"Dream!!"
The dream demon looked at Concubine Yueji with a clear and righteous goal, and then nodded.
For the first time, she felt that what this strange companion said was correct, very correct, simply, no, there was a problem!!
"Dream ?!!"
The dream demon shook his head violently with a well-behaved face, and then looked at his own trainer with his fingers in his mouth, or the legend of holding a sugar gourd exists!
"Meow?"
Miao Meow tilted her head, looking curiously at the dream demon and what the temple was holding in her hand.
"It's a reward."
The temple happily handed over the prepared sugar gourd.
"Dream!!"
After the dream demon took the sugar gourd, he flew around happily.
"Hey~"
Concubine Yue Ji looked at the palace with cold eyes for some reason, "Dianjun, for a moment, I feel that you seem to be very good at coaxing Lori, are you really interested in that aspect?" β
"How could it be ......"
The hall didn't leave a trace and wiped the cold sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, how could it be, wouldn't it, he looked at the young girl on the road so explicitly, so obviously?!
While preparing the energy cube, he released all the members, except for the dragon king scorpion that was imprisoned, of course, a little scorpion who was imprisoned in the pangolin also wanted to eat, and he would be hungry for a few days before talking.
"Ah~"
Concubine Yueji sighed, "I'm really worried that you will be imprisoned on an uninhabited island in the future. β
"Uninhabited island?!"
The temple was taken aback, "Isn't it a package of food and shelter?" When did the reform become self-reliant?! And it's still so difficult?!"
"Dianjun...... There are no such facilities as prisons in the area. β
Concubine Yue Ji told a secret that the public absolutely didn't know, "Generally, criminals will be locked up on unexplored islands, and their voluntary labor is to develop small islands, as for food and shelter, the alliance does not have so many materials." β
However, in an instant, she smiled again, "But it's okay, I will take responsibility and love you well in the future." β
"Are you sure it's love? Not abuse? β
The temple asked casually as he quickly took out the tent and other things.
"Ah, Dianjun, do you honestly admit that you have a habit of masochism, it's okay, don't be shy, don't hide it, because it's ......"
Concubine Yue Ji laughed in the moonlight, and said in a soft and seductive tone, "Because I will abuse you enough." β
"But wouldn't I be very happy then?"
The hall took out a pack of prepared trait energy cubes and beckoned to Miao Meow, "Liuli, come and taste it to see if it suits your taste." β
"No, I will be responsible to the end and make the palace king unlucky."
Concubine Yueji was unmoved.
She looked curiously at what the temple took out, "What is this?" Energy cubes? β
"Meow?"
Miao Meow hesitated for a moment, and then looked at her master.
"It's fine."
The owner of the turquoise pupils just smiled.
"Meow."
Miao Meow carefully picked up an energy cube, and then bowed to the hall obediently and thanked him before eating it.
"Meow?!"
She blinked, showing a rare happy and happy expression.
