"Are you alright?" After Ye Ning let the tiger return to the mountain in front of everyone, his first reaction was to find Li Yishuang first and ask if the person who proved that he had resisted Yan Yanhu's attack had suffered any damage.

At that moment, Li Yishuang's heart beat rapidly, and she felt an indescribable uneasiness, as if she was surprised by the sudden breaking of the silence. Once upon a time, their friendship was very deep, like flowers blooming under the spring sun, and she always took Ye Ning's concern as a source of fun. However, on that quiet night yesterday, Ye Ning's meaningful but implicit but unpredictable "confession" made a faint doubt linger in her heart.

Now, every attention of Ye Ning touched her nerves, like every flick on the strings, causing her heartstrings to resonate. She shook her head slightly, her voice with a slow but resolute detachment: "I'm fine. ”

This sentence seems to be defending itself, and it is also like throwing a hard stone on the soft heart lake. She mustered up the courage and drew a temporarily invisible boundary between Ye Ning and herself.

But Ye Ning didn't know at all, and he didn't know what Li Yishuang was thinking at the moment. After he slowly dropped the sentence "It's okay", he turned around and continued to organize the discipline of the entire team, hoping that they were not frightened by Yan Yanhu.

With indisputable majesty and absolute strength, Ye Ning showed his extraordinary strength. Even a top-notch predator like Yan Yanhu looked powerless and vulnerable in front of him, like annihilation before the wind.

His power was like a thunderbolt that hit the heart of the heavens, deeply shocking every demon beast under his "rule", making their fear and respect for him surging like a tide. At that moment, all the demon beasts succumbed to him, and all bowed their heads and surrendered under his power, and none of them dared to have the slightest thought of resisting.

They were moved by Ye Ning's words, tamed by his strength, willing to accept his leadership, silently respected him as the king, and their little rebellious thoughts, in front of his strength, were like mist in the sun, dissipating in an instant. They were as quiet as rice and wheat gently swept by the valley breeze, and there was no slightest transgression or dissatisfaction with Ye Ning's command. Even if Ye Ning let the tiger return to the mountain, none of them dared to stand up and ask questions.

After they went back that night, Ye Ning continued to distribute the small amount of artificial meat left, so that everyone could have a full meal, which could be regarded as a small fulfillment of the cake he had drawn before.

Later, they arranged their own sleeping areas to prevent conflicts between different demon beasts and cause any friction. After the arrangements were made, he contacted Yu Xuanao by phone and asked him to prepare some transportation to pick up these creatures and go back to Tiancheng tomorrow.

In this late night, due to some of Li Yishuang's own physiological factors, or because of her own behavioral habits. She woke up from her warm bunk again. In the dark night, she found Ye Ning still not asleep outside the ruins, where he stood guard.

There was no Star Soul chatting with Ye Ning today, but Ye Ning still didn't get a good night's sleep. He has to take care of so many demon beasts, prevent them from conflicting, and prevent game monsters from getting up in the middle of the night to do bad things.

He was mainly afraid, he was afraid that Yan Yanhu's words today had aroused the hearts of many demon beasts who wanted to rebel. Ye Ning decided to stand guard in person to prevent any accidents for the sake of safety.

Ye Ning's late sleep may not be unusual to Li Yishuang, and Li Yishuang didn't plan to deal with Ye Ning when she saw this. However, Ye Ning keenly sensed Li Yishuang's figure, whispered in the quiet night, and took the initiative to pull up the topic of small talk.

Li Yishuang was a little shy, but in the face of Ye Ning's friendly attitude, she couldn't find a suitable reason to refuse. Although she blushed a little in her heart, in the end, after she went to the toilet, she chose to share that quiet night with Ye Ning and talk about life with him. This kind of exchange may not be surprising to her, but Li Yishuang still has lingering palpitations about yesterday's events.

Li Yishuang really didn't understand Ye Ning's approach today, and asked very curiously: "Why did you let go of that tiger and let her leave safely?" ”

Ye Ning just smiled and responded, "It's very simple, because she was right, her words were like a fresh breeze, dispelling the fog in my mind." Almost immediately, I understood what she was trying to convey to me, and it dawned on me. ”

"First of all, you think about this question: why are we able to convince countless animals to adapt and integrate into our human environment and lifestyle? What is the reason behind this? ”

Looking at Li Yishuang's puzzled eyes, Ye Ning continued to explain: "In our era, the ecological environment is collapsing day by day, and many creatures are facing survival pressure. ”

"They need to find a safe haven, they need to find a source of nutrients. They want to survive, and they want food to eat, water to drink, and a home where they can live in peace. This keen desire to survive, this endless instinct, made them choose to rely on us humans to live. ”

It is precisely because of this that they are willing to commit themselves to our human society, hoping to use the strength of our human beings to overcome the difficulties of this era. This choice and decision not only reveals their desire to survive, but also shows that they must rely on us. ”

Li Yishuang still didn't understand, and continued to ask: "Then what does this have to do with you letting go of that tiger?" ”

Ye Ning continued: "Our deep desire is to hope that more lives can go to the human world side by side with us, however, this not only requires us to move the words of emotion, but also needs to use facts as a weapon to convince them. It is only with strong and powerful arguments that you can impress them and awaken their deep awe and trust. ”

"When they feel the weight of survival, when they seek refuge in the smoke of war, they will naturally choose to follow humanity without flowery rhetoric or effortless persuasion, hoping to find new hope for survival in the human world."

"I let the tiger go because of this philosophy. It is only under the threat of apex predators that they will really feel the pressure to survive and will urgently need change. This tiger with a vigorous posture and extraordinary strength is my sharp argument, and only he can make all animals deeply aware of this cold and true truth - only by following humans can they find the possibility of survival. ”

"The tiger roars in the forest, and every animal can hear it; The tiger hunts through the ruins, and every heart trembles for it. They are afraid of tigers, they want to live, and in the end, they will only choose to live on us humans. ”

"That's because they know that only we can give them protection, can we take them to a wider territory, and let them find a new way out under the pressure of survival. This is an irrefutable fact and my strongest argument. ”

Li Yishuang instantly understood what Yan Yanhu meant by the sentence "You are a smart person, you know which choice is more beneficial to you". This tiger's thinking is so sharp, it understands Ye Ning's intentions, and without revealing the meaning, it proposes the best solution, and Ye Ning also understands her words, so he will say that she will hide from humans in the future.

Li Yishuang thoughtfully, nodded, and continued to ask: "Then, let's just let that tiger go and leave him alone?" ”

Ye Ning shook his head, and then said: "That majestic galloping tiger, she may only be able to run freely and live a chic life under this blue sky and white clouds. Because when all the preyators choose to flee to humans and seek refuge, her prey will disappear from sight like a plain that is fading away. ”

"Without prey, it would be an endless pale world, like a stretch of wilderness, without life and without hope. The pressure of survival will be like an invisible net, tightly wrapping her, oppressing her, making it impossible for her to escape. ”

However, the instinct of life will lead her to find a new way out, to lead her to the light. I believe that in the face of the pressure to survive, she will eventually make the same choice as other animals, and that is to defect to humans. And for her IQ, she will definitely make such a choice in order to survive. ”

Li Yishuang nodded thoughtfully.

Under the merciless passage of time, a few years later, Yan Yanhu's life gradually drifted away, and the scarcity of food made her feel the hardships of survival, however, she still adhered to her inner self-esteem and pride, and she still yearned for freedom.

Wandering in the wilderness, Yan Yanhu is once again faced with a desperate challenge. The surroundings were desolate and silent, and the wind blew around them, bringing only a desolate whistling. However, there was an unyielding look in her eyes, and the light of determination was not extinguished by hunger.

She didn't choose to beg for help from humans, she knew that she was no longer the Yanyan Tiger she used to be, and the self that once roared in the sky and radiated with light was long gone. But she did not regret it, she raised her head, she greeted the baptism of wind and sand, like bathing in the dusk in the dunes, she chose a lonely and free situation.

Eventually, her emaciated body was consumed by hunger, and her pride and self-esteem shone like sparks at the last moment. She has no weakness to survive, and she chooses to end this journey in the wilderness with dignity. As she left, the old heart was soaked with a longing for freedom in a silent call.

Yan Yanhu, she yearns for freedom!
