After the people left, Jiawen stayed outside for most of the day to make sure that the wind had passed, and then patted his ass and turned back to the tree hole.

Before he could get closer, he saw Lucy looking around the cave with an anxious face. This made him sigh, and he hurriedly walked forward in three steps and two steps.

"Brother Jiawen, why didn't you say a word to me when you went out suddenly. As soon as she saw him, Lucy hurriedly trotted over and hugged his arm and said coquettishly.

"Well, aren't you coming back, look at your nervousness. Jiawen scratched his head on the side and snorted.

Walking into the cave and looking at it, he didn't find the greedy donkey unexpectedly, and Jiawen asked suspiciously, "Lucy, aren't you with you very much, why did you run there now?"

"He said he was hungry and went out to find some fruit to eat. Lucy blinked her big eyes.

"If you weren't both gone, I'd be scared to stay here?" the little girl pouted, as if she was a little angry.

"Okay, okay, it's my fault, I won't do it again next time. Jiawen was helpless on the side and made a gesture of surrender.

"Hmph, I'll let you go this time. The little girl squinted her crescent eyes and curled her lips with a sweet smile.

After comforting Lucy, Garvin also sat down on the spot and prepared to rest for a while, looking forward to what delicious food Ta Ting could bring back.

In the past few days with Ta Ting, Jiawen finally understood how the word rice bucket came from, the whole stomach was like a bottomless pit, no matter how stuffed he was, he couldn't be satisfied, and this guy's mouth has not been idle since he left the city.

Jiawen originally carried enough rations for three people to live for half a month, but he was wiped out by Ta Ting. Now they can only eat wild fruits every day to survive.

Fortunately, the forest here is rich in shrubs with fruits, and I don't have to worry about eating and drinking for a while, but my mouth is almost sour and unconscious after a long time.

However, every time he stepped on the thunder, no matter what he ate, he was full of relish, which made Jiawen deeply suspect that the donkey had no sense of taste.

......

In the midst of boredom, time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was almost dusk.

The sky was getting darker, the sun was slowly setting, and at dusk some nocturnal creatures had already come out of their caves early to prepare for their first meal of the day.

Some moths are dancing in the night sky, and a courtship dance is taking place around the place where the moonlight is shedding.

Suddenly, a moth accidentally crashed into the dense web-like spider silk in the air, and although the strong survival instinct made it struggle violently, the sturdy spider silk was not so easy to break free, but the violent movement attracted the predator.

A long-legged web-forming spider quickly crawled in front of the moth after a few probes, its fangs deeply embedded in its body, and when it was completely incapacitated, it was tied with sturdy spider silk and hung at the end of the spider's web, under a green leaf.

I saw that there were many ovoculations like them on the top, and it was not difficult to guess how many small lives were buried in them.

Just as the spider rubbed its front legs, ready to start eating.

"Smack," the bored Garvin casually bounced the hard-hunting spider away, and let it disappear into the night sky.

The poor spider had already lost its house before it could understand what was going on, and even it didn't know it had drifted into that corner.

Twisting the silk cocoon with his hand, it is a pity that the moth has long lost its life and its limbs have stiffened.

Blowing and cleaning up the garbage from his hands, Jiawen touched his rumbling stomach while thinking about why Ta Ting hadn't come back yet.

Treading Thunder is also an old resident of the Phantom Forest, according to himself, after breaking away from the centaur tribe, he began to wander around, the territory of powerful beasts, as well as the territory of humans, more or less involved, it stands to reason that such an old fritter should be able to predict some dangers in advance, and no matter how bad it is in this kind of peripheral place, he should be able to retreat with his whole body.

But until the sun went down completely, the thunder still didn't appear, which made Jiawen start to worry.

Lucy, who was on the side, also proposed to go out and look for him, for fear that he would run into some trouble.

Although Ta Ting has not been in contact with the two for a long time, his verbose mouth and obscene appearance make it difficult to forget him.

Unconsciously, although it was only a few days, the two of them had already raised this guy from the status of a mount pet to the level of a partner who could intersect with his life.

"Brother, why don't we two go out and look for it. Lucy looked at Garvin with wide eyes.

"Well, it's really a little abnormal that I haven't come back so late. He touched his chin, and then he made a decision.

"Well, you wait here first, and in an hour, whether I find it or not, I'll come back and wait for me here. Gavin simply stated his plan.

"But," the little girl seemed to have something to say, but seeing that he had made a decision, she couldn't say anything more, but muttered to herself why she had left me behind.

Gavin couldn't laugh or cry, but he wasn't ready to change his mind, the night outside was different from the day, maybe there would be some hidden dangers, and it was not suitable for Lucy to walk around at will.

After settling Lucy, Garvin walked out of the tree hole, looked down and thought for a while, then took out the bottle of insect repellent powder from his waist bag, and carefully sprinkled it around the position of the hole, until he confirmed that nothing was missed, and then turned around and left satisfied.

......

The stars are twinkling in the night sky, and the crescent moon is obliquely drawn on it, and the quiet scenery around it has a bit of cold beauty.

At this time, under the night sky, Jiawen was looking around like a headless fly, looking for the traces left behind by the thunderbolt, but after all, he found nothing.

After all, night is different from daytime, the human eye cannot see, can only blur the outline of things, and the hoof prints that extended at the mouth of the tree hole have long been faint.

Now the only thing I can rely on is my own feelings, and I can only follow the place where the fruit trees are flourishing in my memory.

More than an hour has passed, and there is still no clue to be found, Jiawen has already thought about whether he is going to go home and wait for tomorrow to find it again, maybe the donkey is there to be greedy, and he is not ready to come back when he sees that it is getting late.

Although he thought so in his heart, Jiawen was still ready to look for it again, and if he really couldn't find it, he would have to give up.

Looking around, there was really no clue to say, and when he didn't know how to proceed, he suddenly accidentally found a slender tree, which was very suitable for climbing.

Don't think about it, after three or two steps and a small run, Jiawen has already climbed the branch. When he got up the tree, he climbed up quickly like a monkey.

In less than half a cup of tea, he had climbed to the top of the tree, and the cold wind of the night had aroused goosebumps on his body.

Looking into the distance, it was dim all around, and only the borders of the tall canopy could be vaguely seen, but the small objects were not very clear.

Just as Jiawen was a little disappointed and was about to go down, he found a little light in the corner of his eye.

If you look at the past, it is indeed a little light, but because it is too far away to see clearly, it can only vaguely feel that it is not a natural disaster such as a fire, but rather a man-made light.
