Chapter 348: Departure, Lotus Pond
The icy cold wind squeezed through the gaps in the layers of leaves, blowing like ice blades on people's bodies.
The winter air is very dry, and the dense vegetation grows very densely because it is untended.
"Keli~ How is it, do you want to rest?"
Arthur looked at Xu Qingge worriedly, she was carrying a heavy rattan basket on her back.
The bamboo forest in Nancheng is not difficult to find, but it is almost full of insect pet animals, and it is difficult to find bamboo that can be cut down.
Xu Qingge can't hold Xiao Linglong all the time.
Not only because of the inconvenience, but also easy to get rid of the danger,
So she used the skills she learned from her grandfather, found some tough rattan, and after a little processing, made a rattan basket with a strap, a lid, and a buckle.
In fact, if you want to talk about weight, Xiao Linglong is not very heavy, and it is considered light among C-level pet beasts.
The premise is that she didn't walk for half a day, and after a long journey, no matter how good her physique is, she will be wasted.
However, the main burden came from the bag of gold coins in her pocket, which greatly slowed down her speed.
But gold is a must, and the biggest danger along the way is not actually the danger on the road, but Jennifer's appetite.
"Oh~ No matter how hard you try, you won't be able to get to the lotus pond tonight."
"I'm not going to eat any more biscuits tonight than that kind of thing, it's delicious, but I want meat!"
"I can't help but attack the civilians around me."
Jennifer's expression was extremely depressed, and there was a reason for that.
After returning from Glog, Xu Qingge decided that he had to set off as soon as possible.
Because Xu Qingge knew that Longhua's farewell gift took a long time, but her time was running out.
So after discussing with the others, the time was set at 0:00 to 1 the next day, and we went to the lotus pond.
I'm going to look for little Ruoruo, and Arthur is going back to see Aunt Elaine.
Because of this, Jennifer specially left a bowl of mapo tofu for breakfast on the road.
Wanjia Bird's Nest didn't have a door lock, because only he and Groger knew where to put the valuable things, which gave Jennifer the opportunity to sneak into the kitchen.
But when Jennifer went to the kitchen to forage for food at midnight, the bowl of mapo tofu was gone.
Originally, the bowl of mapo tofu was put in the kitchen to make Wan Le think that they would not leave the next day.
Jennifer had also specifically told Wan Le about it, so it was impossible to dump it.
In a fit of rage, he pulled Alger away and checked the smell of the guests by sneaking into the shadows room by room.
The smell of chili peppers can't dissipate so quickly, even after taking a shower, Jennifer's strange eyes can identify the contents of the stomach.
Such a bold thief should naturally replace mapo tofu as his breakfast.
It only took ten minutes to search for the blessing of Shadow and Strange Eye, but even so, he found nothing.
Of course, the matter of checking the guests was naturally hidden from Xu Qingge, after all, his Jennifer was a good baby.
"Ahh
After hearing Jennifer's speech, the surrounding pet beasts all let out a frightened scream and began to flee.
Their eyes were filled with fear. After all, Jennifer's notoriety is known to everyone in Boe.
"Jennifer, you're kidding, aren't you?"
Xu Qingge couldn't help but feel a big head for a while.
I hope that after arriving at the lotus pond, Jennifer can restrain her language a little.
"Of course, my little miss, you should know that I'm just whining because I'm hungry."
Jennifer didn't care, it was just some running meat.
But what effect can that escape speed play?
"Nannan ~ there is the sound of water."
I don't know if it's because the pet beasts around me have run out, and the original slight sound of the river is extremely clear.
"Then let's go to the water's edge and rest, it's time for lunch."
Xu Qingge also felt a little tired, after all, he had been on the road for almost twelve hours.
"Roger!"
When it came to lunch, Jennifer was immediately interested.
"Wait, you let me walk slowly, if I am carried by you again, I will have to fall apart."
Xu Qingge hurriedly took a step forward, avoiding Jennifer's claws.
"Cut, it's boring. Then I'll walk slowly. ”
Jennifer withdrew her paws as if nothing happened, pacing slowly, but her eyes kept glancing over Xu Qingge's gloves.
This is not because he fell in love with the props made by Merlin, but because he only left Xu Qingge for a short while, and this unconscious guy was injured.
Otherwise, with Jennifer's usual temperament, she would have gone to the river alone to catch fish.
Although the theft of mapo tofu is a trivial matter, Jennifer has a vague premonition.
He always felt as if his party was being watched.
But in order to keep Xu Qingge from feeling nervous, he chose to hide this feeling.
After all, he had heard that once he got into a nervous mood, his muscles would start to shake and become sore.
If the quality of lunch is affected because of this little thing, it will inevitably be worth the loss.
"South-South~"
The blue flames sparked through the dense bushes and opened a path.
While setting fires in the woods can be dangerous, bluefire pumpkins can swallow wildfires.
Fire-type pet beasts are very sensitive to fire, and there is also Arthur, a water-type pet beast, in the team.
Not only can the open flame be eliminated, but even the possibility of re-ignition is reduced to zero.
As everyone advanced, the eyes suddenly opened up, and a river with clear water and wide banks appeared.
It's the perfect place to rest.
Xu Qingge saw that there were still many insect pet beasts on both sides of the river, and he was even more satisfied with this place.
You must know that although the insect pet beasts look strange, they take on the important task of testing water quality.
There are so many insect pet beasts that the river water can be drunk directly as long as it is boiled.
"Just rest here."
Xu Qingge put down the basket and found a stone to rest.
She rubbed her aching shoulders, and although the rattan was rough, it barely affected because of the layers of clothing.
Jennifer and Arthur also sat down, and pet beasts are also classified.
"Nannan ~ I'll go get some water."
Because the Blue Fire Pumpkin's actions basically rely on his own energy, even if he consumes energy to burn the bushes, his physical fitness is still the best among the few.
Alger pulls out the crockpot from his shadow, which was supposed to store the resin, but the resin is consumed on Hameln's body.
"Be careful not to fall into the river."
Xu Qingge kindly reminded that although the water of the river was very clear, the rocks on both sides of the river bank were covered with moss.
It seems that the water of this river sometimes rises at high tide.
