241. Telepathy
But that day...... Lightning appeared, and a terrible vortex engulfed the city, harvesting countless lives.
The rice ball didn't know what was going on, but it was scared, and it curled up in its owner's arms and spent that terrible night in a trance.
The rice ball did not continue to live a comfortable life as a cat owner, because the next day, the owner handed it over to a strange human, and it was locked in a dark cage with no idea where it would be sent.
It struggled, begged for help, and hoped that its owner would carry it home, but the black cloth blocked everything, and it could not see its owner, only heard the owner gently say to it, 'Good rice ball, after the test, I will be able to go home soon'.
But then, it heard the screams and wails of many, many of its kind.
And the owner, until the moment it escaped covered in bruises, did not come to take it home.
At that moment it knew that it had been abandoned.
Since then, it has become a stray cat.
Thinking of this, the rice ball froze instantly, and the comfortable squinted eyes also opened, and the watery eyes were full of sadness and sadness.
Sensing that something was wrong with the kitten, Lin Qian also stopped sucking the cat.
"Roar?" Kitten, what are you capable of?
Hearing the inquiry, Fangiri also woke up instantly, and its current situation is not the time to be sad.
With watery eyes raised, Onigiri looked at the colorful and majestic tiger in front of him, but there was not much fear in his heart, because it did not perceive the other party's malice.
This is the same as the courage it faced before and Gu Bai, although the coercion of the two spirit beasts is very strong, it is sure that the other party has no ill will towards it, so the rice ball dares to beg for mercy, and dares to meow all the way over.
"Meow meow." I'll catch mice.
Looking at the soft kitten in front of him, telling himself seriously that it would catch mice, Lin Qian paused.
"Roar!" Ask you about your abilities!
Courage roared angrily, this cat can't be stupid, right?! Of course cats will catch mice!
Onigiri tilted his head, understood.
"Meow meow." The ability tells me that you're not a bad beast, and that you won't hurt me if you don't want to eat me.
What does the ability tell you?
Courage's eyes widened instantly, and his heart was bad, this cat was really a fool!
Lin Qian was stunned for a moment, and then reacted.
"Whoa?!" Can you perceive the malice of others?
If that's the case, then this kitten's ability is very special!
"Meow Meow ......" Eun ......
Onigiri is a little weak-hearted, it doesn't know what the specific concept of malice is, but it can sense that the other party is going to feel bad about it every time, and this kind of object is going to hurt it, and it must run away immediately.
If the other party does not have a good impression of it, it can also perceive it, and it will choose to contact the object of kindness.
And in addition to this perception, it can also sense the danger coming, but Onigiri does not say it because it does not know how to express it, and it understands that it cannot let others know what it is capable of.
Lin Qian asked a few more words, and determined that the ability of the rice ball was a kind of "telepathy", which belonged to the scope of spiritual ability, but it was very supernatural, and it could directly perceive the kindness and malice of other creatures.
While its ability isn't offensive or even has no attack power, it's an extremely rare ability.
At least Lin Qian has only seen rice balls have such special abilities so far.
After confirming the ability, Lin Qian told Fantuan about the requirements and benefits of joining them, and Fantuan agreed to join without saying a word.
Because it can confirm that Lin Qian has no ill will towards it, if it stays here, it will be safe, and there is no need to worry about being caught and eaten by other beasts.
Unlike leopards and moles, the non-attacking onigiri needs a safe place to stay, so it is very happy to join, and it is naturally easy to integrate into the team without being forced to do so.
Coupled with Lin Qian's behavior of sucking cats, the status of rice balls is faintly higher than that of leopards, and the kitten rice balls quickly mixed with chipmunks.

"Uh-" A withering sound came from a distance, and Lin Qian immediately stopped.
The team stopped with Lin Qian, it was already the middle of the night at the moment, it was the coldest time of the night, they were not far from their destination, they wanted to hurry up, but the golden withered group found a large number of human teams in front.
"Huh." There are a large number of humans in front of us, so let's take a break and wait for the Golden Blighter to come back.
Everyone immediately rested on the spot, and they basically only obeyed Lin Qian's decision, and never asked or doubted more.
When the mountain wind heard the withering message, he was slightly puzzled, and Jin Wither said that there was a large number of human troops in front of him, not a city with a large number of humans, which means that the human beings have also left the city and are migrating?
Shan Feng couldn't help but sigh slightly when he thought of this, it wasn't that he had any other thoughts, it was just that he simply remembered the situation in which he was struggling to survive before.
In this changing world, the survival of human beings is not easy, and even many times, ordinary humans are not as good as ordinary beasts.
At least the animals are very adaptable to the living environment of nature, even if they were in the farm or kept as pets by humans, they can adapt quickly after returning to nature.
Human beings have long been separated from natural life for too long, and the convenience and comfort of modern society make most people not even know what the countryside is like, let alone survive in the wilderness.
Human beings do have a difficult life, but human beings are also a very adaptable animal, after experiencing so many disasters, the survivors who are surviving today are people who are resolute and can endure hardships, even if they were delicate people before, they have already become hard-working under this kind of polishing.
And those who can't bear hardships and stand hard work have already been brushed clean before this.
The big waves wash the sand, nothing more than that.
The leader of the golden wither personally went to the direction of the human race to reconnoitre, and the wisdom and changes of the human being Lin Qian often popularized science with everyone, so the spirit beasts in the team were very vigilant against humans.
Since Shanfeng evolved into an alien and was able to communicate freely with the spirit beasts, the spirit beasts often chatted with Shanfeng.
Of course, the content of the chat is quite funny.
For example, Jin Diao asked the mountain wind: Do humans have no fur?
In the eyes of the golden withers, except for snakes and insects, everyone has fur and feathers, but humans do not, so they can only take the trouble to wear the skins of other animals, which is really pitiful.
They all have their own feathers, which are beautiful and comfortable, and the mountain wind has to wrap the fur of other animals every day, and they have to change and wash, which is very troublesome, no matter how they look at it, they feel that the mountain wind is like a little pitiful.
After all, when the mountain breeze first came, there were not many clothes, and it took many days to be bare-chested, and only then did there be animal skins.
This question really made Shan Feng stunned, and finally the young man said dryly that the theory of evolution is different from the physical signs of humans, and I don't know if Jin Wei understands it.
Anyway, as soon as he got through, the teenager almost made himself dizzy, after all, the theory of evolution is not applicable now, and I don't know whether it is applicable or not.
And the chipmunks and the two rattles are all kinds of magical problems, from the birth of cubs to whether humans eat insects, there are all kinds of problems.
When you know that some humans will eat bugs (fried silkworm pupae and the like...... The chipmunks squeaked excitedly.
It looks like the rat guessed correctly.
The more things Baiteng learned about human beings here in Shanfeng, the more curious he became about human life, and during this time, Baiteng had almost learned the language of Daxia, and he could write fifty or sixty words in a row.
Lin Qian also took advantage of the opportunity of Baiteng's study, pretending to be curious, and learned to recognize words together, so far, Lin Qianhui's language and writing in Daxia have been smoothly moved to the surface.
Bai Teng watched Lin Qiansan learn a bunch of words in five days, and was suddenly surprised and envious.
However, thinking that Lin Qian was the smartest spirit beast in the team, Bai Teng was relieved after a short period of malaise, and the mountain wind did not suspect anything, after all, Lin Qian had always behaved very smartly, and the spirit beast was not an existence that humans understood.
The ability to learn quickly is not a special ability, after all, geniuses among human beings or people with good memories can learn quickly.

"Whew-"
The cold wind whistled through the dried branches and leaves, leaving behind the sound of the wind, making the atmosphere at night more and more strange and terrifying.
But the crowd, who had long been accustomed to this situation, remained unmoved, and everyone leaned close together, surrounding like penguins, to resist the cold of the night.
Compared to Lin Qian, who can travel non-stop at night, humans obviously do not have this advantage.
Neither the heat of the day nor the cold of the night could be held up by ordinary survivors, and the crowd was much more skilled and the queue was long, spreading for about a thousand meters in the forest.
This group of survivors is one of the teams of Coastal City that left from the coastline.
When they first set off, the military of Linhai City contacted the signal from the capital, and they also went to the capital, but the road ahead was very difficult, and in just half a month, their team lost hundreds of thousands of people.
After that, the team was attacked by the monster herd several times and scattered by the migrating beast herd, and now the team in Linhai City has been torn apart, and the equipment for military communication has long been useless.
There are about 100,000 survivors in front of them, and eighty percent of them are ordinary people, even if the number of supernatural people has been increasing over time, the number of human awakenings is still a minority.
If it weren't for the fact that most of the people in this group of people were officers and soldiers of the military, I am afraid that this team would have been divided long ago and would not have been able to look like this.
"Sister... Sister... Okay, cold ......" A little boy of seven or eight years old snuggled tightly into the arms of a young girl, he shrunk back, his little face was purple from the cold, and his voice was almost inaudible.
And the girl who held him closed her eyes tightly and seemed to fall into a deep sleep.
If you look closely, you can see that the girl's lowered head is weakly pulling, her dark and chapped face is already cold, and there is no breath between her noses.
The girl's heart had long since lost its strength in this cold night, but there was still a trace of warmth in her thin arms.
The little boy shivered, his little face buried in his stiff and smelly jacket, and gradually he couldn't even hear the sound of trembling and shouting cold.
The two sisters and brothers should have been sheltered by adults in the most central position, but there were no rules in the wandering team, and the two who did not have adult protection were gradually squeezed out of the center and gradually driven to the outermost periphery.
As the temperature rises during the day, the cooler the night becomes, and people with a high enough physical strength can gradually adapt, such as the Anomalous, who will also be hot and cold, but will never die from it.
But ordinary people can't resist this change in temperature, especially people with a low degree of evolution, people who fall in the scorching heat, and countless people who freeze to death after one night.
People are already numb, and they don't even spend time and effort on disposing of the corpses in front of them.
Most of the people who sit on the outskirts at night are going to die, and in order to live, new rules are imperceptibly formed in the team, and the strong will always have the right to live.
The cold wind continued to invade the girl's thin back, and the cold air was like poison, eroding life little by little, until it was devoured.
The Golden Wither Leader hovered in the night sky, his sharp eyes coldly scanning the crowd below, and after confirming the number of Abilities, the Golden Wither Leader flew back.
As for how desolate and miserable the humans below are, it doesn't matter to the Golden Blight Leader, it just needs to confirm the threat level of these humans.
————
With the return of the Golden Withering Leader, Lin Qian thought about it and chose to bypass these people.
If it was a small group of humans, it didn't have to be so troublesome, with their speed, it was enough to pass by in a minute.
When the team of hundreds of thousands of people is really too much, there are tens of thousands of supernatural people in it, although most of them are first- and second-level supernatural beings, and they do not pose a threat to them, but it is better not to contact them.
Hearing that there were tens of thousands of supernatural people in the human team, all the spirit beasts were stunned, they had also seen a lot of spirit beasts in the migrating beast group, but there were generally only a few thousand spirit beasts in the tens of thousands of beast groups, although most of the spirit beasts were of higher level, but compared with humans, there was really no advantage in this number.
Originally, Lin Qian hadn't seen many human beings, and he thought that the human population had plummeted in several catastrophes, but he didn't expect that there would be so many.
After thinking about it, Lin Qian also understood that ordinary small cities naturally do not have any surviving population, but in that kind of large city, especially a city with an army, the number of survivors must still be good.
There are already a lot of human beings, and it is normal to have a team of survivors with a population of hundreds of thousands, but he has not encountered it before.
Thinking of this, Lin Qian gave the courage to set off with everyone, while he took the mountain wind and rice balls to the human team in front.
With such a large team of human beings, Lin Qian naturally wouldn't miss collecting information, thinking that he could really collect useful information, he couldn't just observe on the periphery like the Golden Wither Leader, such as penetrating the inside.
Tiger dad they have no opinion, they don't worry about anything, follow the courage and set off, although they have to take a detour, but it is not much, and it will run for about an hour.
And the leader of the golden withered also sent a pair of golden withered to follow Lin Qian in the air to facilitate communication between the two parties.
