Chapter 39: The Cubs

cub

Ye Chen had already finished his cultivation under the waterfall today. This period of cultivation has greatly improved Ye Chen's speed and reaction ability. Old man Shi Yunfeng said that if he practiced dodging into a muscle reaction, the cultivation under this waterfall would be over, but it was still too early for Ye Chen now, and he still had a long way to go.

The branches and foliage of the ancient trees are very dense, but they can't stop the sun from shining down, forming light and shadow. There are no roads in the mountains, overgrown with weeds, and trees grow wildly, leaving only a few gaps. In the middle of the jungle, among all the green, you can occasionally see red berries dotted with this green kingdom. It's red, it's cute.

Ye Chen walked over and picked a few of them and berries. He wiped it with his hand, then took a bite, and the berry smell filled his entire mouth, and the sweet and sour taste bloomed on the tip of his tongue.

These are all very common wild fruits in the Great Wilderness, each with a unique taste, Ye Chen has mastered most of the fruits in the forest, knowing that which ones are edible, which ones are poisonous, and some have special effects.

When Ye Chen saw it on the road, he would pick dozens of pieces. Brought back to Shicun, these fruits are the favorite of the children in Shicun, and Ye Chen, who is so alone every day in the great wilderness, has become the children's favorite. He always brought some delicious berries to the children.

If there were no fierce beasts in the Great Wilderness, it would be a quiet weak woman, and the melodious cicada chirp came from the huge vines wrapped around the hugging wood, and the vine buckets were as thick as wooden dragons entwined in them. The crisp sound of birds sounded in various places in the forest, and no one knew where the owner of the sound was hiding. Cicadas chirp and birds chirp, and the wilderness is full of life.

Ye Chen wanders here every day, hunting. Now he's looking for today's opponent. With Ye Chen's current strength, he can only not run into it. In the category of super fierce beasts, although he is invincible, there is no big problem in saving his life.

The sound of Suo Suo came from the bushes not far away, it was very subtle, and Ye Chen still heard it. At some distance, the sound became clearer, and the bushes were still shaking slightly. Apparently there's something in there, moving.

Ye Chen casually picked up a branch next to him, ready to check what was inside. Ye Chen almost suffered a big loss not long ago, and it was also in the bushes. went to test it, and there was a black-brown centipede hidden in it, which was extremely poisonous when it looked at. Ye Chen also had to practice under the waterfall every day, and his reaction was naturally extremely fast. Dodged, the mouthparts of poisonous insects. Eventually, the poisonous insects retreated along the dead vines, but some of the liquid left behind was still sizzling from the corroded vines.

This time, Ye Chen held the branch in his hand and was more cautious. Tear open the bushes with long branches, and a small beast appears in them.

It appears to be a leopard cub with light golden lines all over its body, and a small horn on its head, which is spiral. With a pair of huge eyes, those sapphire eyes, he looked at Ye Chen with tears in his eyes. The little beast saw Ye Chen and roared at him.

Woohoo———— woohoo————

It's a pity that it's too young, and this warning voice is more like a coquette. Milk fierce, milk fierce. Ye Chen reached out and grabbed it.

The Great Wilderness is cruel, and so it is for any living being. From time to time, seemingly powerful creatures are hunted for food by even more powerful creatures. Some of these creatures may have just given birth to cubs and have not yet been nurtured. Their parents are dead. Often these young beasts do not survive and will starve to death.

If only the stronger young beasts would come out of the nest. Begin to hunt for their own survival, such young beasts often do not survive, but once they become adults, they are not ordinary fierce beasts can deal with, they become the king of the wilderness!

I don't know what the baby looks like, it may be that its parents have died and started hunting for itself, and there is also a situation where it is playful and runs out of the nest out of curiosity, so that its parents may be wandering around.

Ye Chen was very moved, hoping to bring this young beast back to Shicun. Raise it to adulthood, and it can be used as the fighting power of Ishimura in the future! At first glance, the parents of this little beast are not good species, they should be a beast species with strong bloodlines.

The little beast saw that Ye Chen had caught it, and hurriedly dodged. Turning into the forest, it fled.

Where would Ye Chen have had such a difficult opportunity, in fact, he is very much like raising a pet, there is only one big yellow dog in the village, and the children in the village like to play with it, and Ye Chen is no exception. But there is only one big yellow dog. This is very difficult to do, in a stone village really needs strong combat power, he will leave the stone village in the future, and he does not want to come back again. I heard bad news from the village.

Ye Chen followed behind, although the speed of the little beast was not as good as Ye Chen, but this was a wild mountain range, and ancient trees everywhere blocked the way. Ye Chen had the heart to chase after him, but the little beast picked a place with a small gap to drill.

The young beast was not large, and those narrow gaps could easily be penetrated. This is bitter for Ye Chen, he has to make a little detour. In this way, the little beast whose speed was not as fast as Ye Chen was not caught up by Ye Chen for a while. Both sides are at a stalemate, and neither is willing to back down.

Ye Chen secretly said in his heart: "I see how long you can last, I don't believe I can't catch up with you." ”

One run, one chase, one man and one beast. A speed race was launched in the deep mountains and dense forests. There were even a few times when he almost caught its tail on contact, but unfortunately at this critical moment, a branch with the thick arm of an adult stopped him, but the little beast was always in his field of vision and was not lost. If this race continues, this young beast will sooner or later be in Ye Chen's bag.

Before you know it, a fog rises from the depths of the col. Ye Chen didn't know where he had followed the young beast, and in the moment when Ye Chen lost his mind, the young beast actually disappeared under Ye Chen's nose.

"Escape technique, why didn't you use it just now, isn't this playing trick on me?!" Ye Chen muttered.

But he didn't stop on his feet, Ye Chen was still unwilling. And so the loot in his hand ran away, and he quickly went up to the place where the cub had disappeared, rummaging through it.

Ye Chen pulled the dead wood and branches on the ground. A small black hole was revealed, and the young beast had burrowed into it, not some kind of earth escape technique.

Soon Ye Chen found an exit on the other side of the cave, and there were still footprints left by the young beast when it fled.

Ye Chen leaned on an ancient tree and sat down to rest, without thinking about it, he was sure that he would have run away long ago during the time he had delayed his kung fu.

Between resting on this ancient tree, Ye Chen's eyes were not idle. Observe the surroundings everywhere. The yin qi in the forest is very heavy, poisonous insects are infested, the beast roars dull like thunder, and there are bursts of fishy air left by fierce biao, snakes, etc., which make people chill their skin and bones.

Since the young beast didn't catch it, there was no reason to stay in this place, the environment here made Ye Chen very uncomfortable, and he had an ominous premonition, it was better to leave quickly.
