The rain kept falling.
As for the atmosphere, it was pretty harmonious.
At dawn, the heavy rain still did not stop.
The temperature dropped sharply and it was extremely cold in the forest.
The flame burned all night, but in the end it was unable to withstand the power of nature and gradually extinguished.
Chu Xiaoye lay on the ground, watching the rain and feeling sad.
The little girl snuggled next to him and fell asleep unconsciously.
The dress is not completely dry, and the hair is still stained with rainwater.
The little girl in her sleep curled up into a ball due to the cold, and her lips became a little blue.
Obviously, her young and fragile body could not withstand the heavy rain in the end, and she caught a cold and had a fever.
Chu Xiaoye stretched out his paw, as if he wanted to touch her forehead, but then he realized that he was not a human being, so what was the point of touching her forehead with his paw
If you have such an obvious fever, do you still need to touch it
There should be many medicinal herbs in the mountains and forests, but he didn't know them.
Even if he knew it, he could only look forward to the medicine and sigh.
At dawn, the little girl was trembling and frowning, talking vaguely in her sleep, as if she was having a nightmare.
Chu Xiaoye stood up, called the warthog Dakeng and asked him to dig a hole on the hillside, while he quickly walked towards the woods in the distance.
Soon, he came back with a piece of bloody fur in his mouth, baking it on the fire that still had sparks and residual heat.
Little Curly Tail, Meimei, and Tilis lay aside and watched quietly, not knowing what he was going to do.
The heavy rain turned into light rain, but it continued continuously with no end in sight.
The mountain road is muddy and slippery, steep and dangerous.
This is not a good time to be on the road. If you slip and fall down the hillside, you will lose more than you gain.
The big pit was dug very quickly, and the cave on the hillside was dug out quickly.
Chu Xiaoye also dried the fur that was peeled off from the monkey or orangutan, and then wrapped it around the little girl's body.
The little girl opened her eyes and looked at him confusedly. She neither spoke nor moved. It was obvious that she was unconscious and exhausted from the fever.
Chu Xiaoye turned to look at Xiao Juanwei and asked him to come over and help.
The little curly tail finally got his brother's recognition and help, and immediately jumped over happily. With his tail rolled up, he rolled up the little girl and the quilt together, and carried the little girl on his back.
The little girl was tightly wrapped in fur, and her neck was tightly strangled by the little curly tail. She was almost strangled and her face turned red.
Chu Xiaoye slapped Little Curly Wei on the head and told him to take a snack.
The little curly tail quickly let go, carried the little girl on his back, and quickly walked into the newly dug cave. Then he flicked his tail and threw the little girl to the ground.
"boom!"
Chu Xiaoye slapped him again, making him burst into tears.
Chu Xiaoye ignored her and spread the fur on the ground with her paws, then placed the little girl on it and wrapped it tightly with the fur.
The little girl seemed to be more awake, and looked at him pitifully with her sleepy eyes.
Chu Xiaoye hesitated for a moment, raised her paws, spread her golden hair, placed it outside the fur, and then used her paws to brush her clothes.
The little girl soon understood.
Wearing a dress soaked by the rain to bed will never make you feel better.
Her head was dizzy and her whole body was weak, but she still struggled, wrapped in warm fur, and struggled to untie her skirt.
Chu Xiaoye turned around and left, walking to the bonfire. After hesitating for a while, Fang picked up some dry leaves and branches that had not been wet by the rain from the dense bushes around him, and carefully piled them on the fire that had not been completely extinguished. pile on top.
Soon, smoke began to rise from under the fire.
The little curly tail who was watching curiously from the side suddenly opened his eyes wide when he saw this scene, with excitement on his face. He seemed to want to step forward and poke it with his paws like his brother, but he remembered what happened last night and was too afraid to do so. .
The smoke is getting thicker and thicker.
Soon the flames reignited.
Chu Xiaoye climbed up the big tree above her head, broke some branches, and re-strengthened the rain shelter above. Finally, no rainwater fell into the fire.
At this time, the little girl had taken off her wet dress, shoes and socks, wrapped tightly in the dry fur, and looked at him with big eyes.
She is a human, so she can make fire, but why can this lion do the same? Moreover, she can also make rain shelters and honey beef, which really makes her feel incredible.
Chu Xiaoye planted a few branches on the ground next to the fire, then returned to the cave. Under the doubtful eyes of the little girl, she picked up her dress, returned to the fire, and hung her dress on the ground. On the branches next to the fire, they were baking in earnest.
The little girl was lying in the cave, tilting her head, looking dumbfounded.
The flames burned the dead branches, crackling, and the rain in the forest was still dripping, and it kept falling,
Time passed quietly.
Soon, Chu Xiaoye dried the little girl's clothes and took them back. Then she came over with her shoes and socks, hung them on a branch, and continued to bake them.
To be honest, Chu Xiaoye didn't know why he was able to do this.
Although he was once a human being, that happened in his previous life, and he had already saved the life of this little human girl and allowed her to follow the team, which was an act of kindness and justice.
As a lion now, he should have been ruthless and more wary and repellent of humans, but, obviously, he couldn't do that.
Perhaps, this little girl has not yet become an adult, but is just a pure and clear child. She has never committed any sin or had any bad thoughts towards animals or the grassland.
Perhaps, he has always been as lonely and desolate as this little girl is now.
Before the little girl came to this team, how could he not be a lion like a little girl? It seems that he is surrounded by companions and relatives, but in fact, who can understand his heart
In the evening, the rain eased a bit.
A few blue eyes went hunting in the forest not far away.
Little Curly Tail, Meimei, and Jasmine also went hunting in the forest on the other side.
Tilis hid in the dense bushes nearby and slept soundly.
Catherine lay silently beside the fire, watching his every move.
Chu Xiaoye took the dried shoes and socks back to the cave and placed them next to the little girl.
At this time, the little girl was already asleep, her cheeks were red, her breath was hot, and she was obviously still having a fever.
Chu Xiaoye leaned closer and could almost feel the hot breath on her forehead.
He stretched out his paw and brushed the little girl's hair. It was already dry, but the disappearing moisture may have entered her body along her pores.
If the fever continues like this, her life will definitely be in danger.
Chu Xiaoye turned around and stood at the entrance of the cave, looking at the gloomy sky and the continuous rain, and sighed secretly in his heart.
He has done everything he can, and she can only rely on herself. If she still can't support it, then he can only leave her or bury her in this cave.
As night fell, the rain in the sky suddenly turned red.
Like blood, falling drop by drop.
This familiar rain of blood made Chu Xiaoye feel even more worried.
However, looking at the blood rain that caused the animals and plants on the grassland to mutate and grow in large numbers, Chu Xiaoye's eyes suddenly brightened, and he turned his head to look at the little girl in the cave.
Since these blood rains can make many plants grow wildly, and can make many animals evolve and mutate, becoming more powerful than before, then these blood rains must contain very powerful energy.
What would happen if this little human girl took a few sips
Will it immediately eliminate the germs in her body, make her body stronger, and make her disease better immediately
This is an opportunity.
No matter what, give it a try.
Chu Xiaoye walked to a bush, scratched off a thick stem with her claws, and then used the tips of her claws to hollow out a little space in the middle. Then she collected some rainwater from the sky and returned to the cave.
The little girl closed her eyes tightly, frowned, her cheeks and forehead were burning red, she twitched from time to time, and it seemed to be getting more and more serious.
Chu Xiaoye hesitated for a moment, then held the stem containing the blood rain with his two paws, stretched out his tongue and licked it a few times, letting his saliva mix with the blood rain.
Whether it would succeed or not, he didn't know.
If he failed, then he could only say sorry silently and bury the little girl.
"Here, drink the medicine."
Chu Xiaoye lowered his head and pushed the little girl's head to wake her up.
The little girl opened her eyes, confused, not knowing where she was, who she was, or who the mighty and terrifying face in front of her was.
Chu Xiaoye poured the blood mixed with saliva into her mouth.
The little girl subconsciously opened her mouth and drank. After drinking, she closed her eyes again and fell asleep.
After dark, the Blue Eyes came back with their prey.
A few small curly tails also returned home with a full load.
Chu Xiaoye returned to the pair of bonfires and continued to add branches to them, specifically adding branches that were wet by rain, then tore off a deer leg and put it on top to smoke.
No one dared to say anything about his strange behavior.
Tilis, who had just come closer, was dizzy by the smoke, her eyes and nose were running with tears, and she fled in a hurry.
The little curly tail didn't dare to approach, and was eating meat not far away.
After Chu Xiaoye put the deer legs on the fire, he left to eat.
As the smoke cooks, the water in the deer legs quickly evaporates, the blood coagulates, the skin becomes charred, and the fat overflows.
After Chu Xiaoye had eaten her fill, she went to the forest to pick up some guli incense, pepper leaves and other plants. When she came back, she continued to burn them on the fire, forcing out the aroma inside, and smoking the deer legs on them.
Soon, the aroma spreads.
Even Leng's father couldn't help but turn his head frequently to watch.
Catherine was very smart. After watching it a few times, she understood how to maintain this pile of flames. Whenever the flames became smaller, she would find some dead branches and carefully stuff them under the plant spices.
The venison legs were quickly roasted to a golden brown, and the fat dripped onto the fire, making a sizzling sound.
Chu Xiaoye would not eat these things, let alone let other members of Leng's father's lion pride eat these things. Now they are not qualified to enjoy these cooked foods.
Of course, I can’t get used to it either.
They need to replenish moisture from raw meat and get more energy from raw meat.
After the deer leg was smoked, Chu Xiaoye took it back to the cave and placed it next to the little girl. Then he lay there, looking at the bloody drizzle outside, thinking about his future life.
This bloody rain came too suddenly and at the wrong time.
Only when the weather clears up can he continue to lead the team forward.
I hope this bloody rain does not bring too shocking changes to this world.
