When he started to breathe, Meng Jiuzhao suddenly realized that the weather was getting colder.
"... Next, put the seeds here..." Just as Meng Jiuzhao was estimating the current temperature, Xiao Hua's voice came from not far away.
Standing next to the big little flower was Alan, who was also big. The two big heads touched each other, and the Kantas on both ends were staring at the... pit under their feet with a serious face.
They are planting flowers.
As they went further and further away, the broad-leaved trees gradually became fewer and replaced by large coniferous plants. The flowering period of the plants here has passed, and now there are no flowers at all along the way.
Xiaohua is worthy of his own name, and he never forgets to pick flowers on the way of hard hunting every day. He will pick everything he thinks looks good and put it in his bag. Once, he even picked a flower that was one meter high and smelly. Wen's flower came back, and when Meng Jiuzhao approached, the flower even cracked a hole from the stamen and almost bit off half of his leg! Luckily he escaped quickly—
Enigmatic flowers, enigmatic aesthetics.
The flower was finally lying in Xiaohua's bag, and the terrible stench gradually dissipated after three full days. During this period, no one was willing to approach Xiaohua, only Alan did not respond. Feelings have gotten better.
Finally, a few days ago, when Xiaohua found that she could no longer find flowers, she suddenly decided to plant flowers by herself. There were indeed many seeds of plants in his bag, so he and Alan walked together for a few days. One side planted and opened up wasteland.
The small seeds were thrown into a hole with a diameter of at least five meters. Under Xiaohua's guidance, Alan and him filled the hole with their paws.
"Finally, just take a pee."
Hearing Xiaohua's orders to Alan with a black face, don't look at evil! Meng Jiuzhao turned his head hastily. After a long while, there was a sound of shush shush behind him.
Well, with such two bubbles of urine poured down, can this flower live
Originally, they used the rest time to plant flowers. After Xiaohua and the others planted the flowers, Meng Jiuzhao announced that the team would move on before they had a long rest.
He was actually a little anxious all the time.
Without a map, and without being told the time of arrival, he has no idea of the current journey! He could only try not to waste time on the road. According to Kantas's rest habits, on this basis, everyone's rest time was shortened a little for the road.
Meng Jiuzhao no longer walks by himself now. As a human being, his speed is too slow, which will only slow down the overall speed of the team. So now Meng Jiuzhao spends most of his time on top of Louis except when he needs to identify the direction and occasionally go to the ground.
The speed of nearly twenty sub-adult Kantas was extremely astonishing. Meng Jiuzhao kept recording the time silently. When the date on his leather bag became 30, Meng Jiuzhao suddenly woke up in the middle of the night.
He was awakened by the coolness on his face.
Dazedly, he touched his face, and when he felt his hand was cold, he got up in surprise.
Snowing!
The sky that should have been dark turned slightly white at this moment, and a thin layer of snowflakes had accumulated on the ground at some point.
There was no one under the wing, and Louis immediately got up vigilantly. He was relieved to find Meng Jiuzhao right in front of him, and then he also found that it was snowing.
After moving to Grandpa Meng's site, it doesn't snow often there, so Meng Jiuzhao and Louis haven't seen such heavy snow for a long, long time.
For Meng Jiuzhao, the most difficult days in his life were spent when it was snowing. He thought he would immediately think of the hardships at that time when he saw snow. However, at this moment, Meng Jiuzhao only had warmth in his heart.
"Louis, remember? We were born in a place with snow~" The wind and snow in front of him was blocked by a huge body, Meng Jiuzhao didn't look back, he knew it was Louis.
"Roar—" I remember.
"At that time, among the cubs, you were the strongest!"
"Hey~" I am also the strongest now~
"You also helped me find winter fruit. It's sweet, salty, and delicious, but I haven't eaten it for many years..."
"Hey..." I know, I will find it for you when I see you on the road this time.
Against the huge body of Louis, Meng Jiuzhao's body was like a bean sprout. It was obviously a conversation between a dragon and a person. The language was completely different, but they could completely understand each other.
Not just words, they empathize with each other's hearts.
They were brought up by the same fathers, they ate the same food, they slept under the same wings, they ate together when there was meat, they starved together when there was no meat, and no one knew each other better than each other.
"Louis, have I ever told you that being born with you is the luckiest thing in my life?" Maybe because the snowflakes are so beautiful and the atmosphere is too peaceful, Meng Jiuzhao couldn't help but say something that has been buried in his heart for a long time. if.
Louis didn't speak, what was replaced - it was Louis who gently entangled Meng Jiuzhao's tail.
pity-
His strength was too great, Meng Jiuzhao lost his footing and fell on the dinosaur beside him.
Although Meng Jiuzhao was relatively light in weight, for this group of Kantas living in the wild, this movement was enough to wake them up.
The Kantas who had been sleeping soundly woke up one after another. When they saw the snowflakes, they were all stunned!
"Oh oh oh!!!"
Kantas born in the snow and ice are essentially snow-loving, and the warming of the climate is a later thing. When they were younger cubs, they all lived in the long winter, of course, with their father.
Up to now, they have been away from their father for a month, passed through the painful "weaning period", mastered their own hunting skills, and have a group of companions. Now these large cubs are getting closer and closer to the real Kanta Damn, as a result, when they saw Snowflake today, these guys turned into the cubs they were before.
Although they woke up at the wrong time, none of the Kantas wanted to go back to sleep, and they were not too cold, curiously trying to catch the falling snowflakes with any part of their bodies.
Meng Jiuzhao watched them play at first, but soon he felt that he couldn't continue like this.
It was rare to see snow, and he didn't mind these guys playing for a while, while watching them play, he could wait until the snow stopped before moving everyone forward. But time passed by unknowingly, and when it was daylight, Meng Jiuzhao suddenly realized: not only did the snow show no signs of stopping, but... it was getting bigger and bigger? !
He tapped his head in frustration.
Just now I was talking to Louis about the breeding grounds I saw when I was a child, how could he have forgotten that the closer he was to the breeding grounds, the colder the weather would be! Snow is even more common. Now that it's snowing, why didn't he realize it
Hurry up as soon as possible before the snow accumulates!
Forcibly pulling the cubs who were still playing, Meng Jiuzhao sat on Louis' shoulders again, and they continued on their way.
This time, Meng Jiuzhao asked Louis to run as fast as he could. At first, the other Kantas were very excited about the chance to run fast (←Meng Jiuzhao usually doesn’t let them run fast in order to save everyone’s energy), but after running to the first After three hours, many Kantas were obviously tired. Although Kantas was born with strength and speed, endurance needed training.
Now this group of Kantas is much better than before. If Meng Jiuzhao first met them, these big men might not even have the stamina to run for an hour at full strength. Now they are much stronger than before, but , still could not meet Meng Jiuzhao's request.
Meng Jiuzhao had to slow down Louis' pace.
Changing from fast running to jogging, he became a little irritable.
The snow is bigger than before—
Not long after, it was no longer necessary for him to slow down Louis, but Daxue forced them to slow down!
Not long after, the snow reached the point where Meng Jiuzhao couldn't open his eyes, and the snowflakes stuck to his eyelashes. Meng Jiuzhao hurriedly climbed onto Louis' head, and when he realized that Louis' eyes were also covered, he hurriedly yelled to stop.
Can no longer move forward.
Kantas's ability to withstand the cold also needs to be trained. The temperature drops too fast, and these cubs are completely unable to adapt to the current weather immediately! We must find a way to warm up immediately! Meng Jiuzhao thought of this question almost immediately.
However, the snow was too heavy, and the fire could not be started at all. In a hurry, Meng Jiuzhao asked everyone to put the bags they carried from home on the outermost side, and then lay down in a circle with their tails facing out and faces inward.
Trembling, Meng Jiuzhao was tightly hidden under Louis's wings. He couldn't get any wind here, but Louis was blowing snow and wind outside!
Every once in a while, Meng Jiuzhao tried to go out to check the situation outside, but every time he was held tightly by Louis, unable to move at all, so Meng Jiuzhao knew: it must be that the snowstorm outside was still going on.
The wind speed outside is getting faster and faster, Meng Jiuzhao can only roughly estimate the current wind speed, although it sounds a bit unbelievable, but he thinks the current wind speed is at least 100 meters per second!
Such a huge wind force could hardly keep life alive, but a thought came to Meng Jiuzhao's mind: They seem to be arriving at their destination soon!
This idea appeared in his mind very strangely. Could this be the reason why the fathers didn't talk about it? Is it the so-called knowing when you go there
Meng Jiuzhao was very uncertain in his heart, but he had already affirmed this strange idea in his heart.
Because this is the land where only Kantas can survive.
Hiding among a group of Kantas, in such a harsh environment, Meng Jiuzhao, who was not blown by the wind, thought silently.
The blizzard blew for about one day and one night, and when Louis finally let him out, the sky outside was still bright, the same brightness as before he went in, but Meng Jiuzhao knew it was absolutely impossible to be on the same day, cooing His stomach also reminded him that a long, long time had passed.
Meng Jiuzhao fell to the ground stiffly.
The snow was very soft, and he sank deeply as soon as he landed on the ground. Looking at the waist-deep snow in awe, Meng Jiuzhao crawled out while supporting Louis' legs.
Passing by several thighs one after another, Meng Jiuzhao struggled to escape from the siege of Kantas and saw the light of day again.
In just one day and one night, it was already winter outside.
Due to the heavy snow, the tails and feet of the Kantas were frozen on the ground, and they were forced not to move. Meng Jiuzhao lit a fire and slowly melted the ice where their bodies touched the ground with the help of the fire. Only then did the group of Kantas be released.
When everything was settled and Meng Jiuzhao finally had time to count the heads of the Kantas, he discovered something in horror: one Kantas was missing.
