Day by day in the infinite game

Chapter 23 23. Ants move
Around noon, Tang Qinqin chose a suitable spot by the stream to sit down and rest.

The temperature in the forest is suitable, the sun shines through the intertwined branches and leaves, and occasionally there is a cool breeze blowing on your face.Tang Qinqin was not in a hurry when he was traveling, so he did not feel tired, but felt very refreshed.

But now that the first bottle of water is finished, it’s time to start stocking up on clean water.

The gurgling stream is crystal clear, with pebbles paving it, and the water is cool.

Tang Qinqin cut open the empty water bottle with a dagger and made a simple water filtering device using masks, pebbles, and charcoal blocks from plant ash.

Then a small fire was lit, intending to roast the meat and eat it.

The meat is washed in clean stream water, smeared with grass juice to remove the fishy smell, skewered on branches and grilled on the fire.

The surroundings were quiet, with the occasional chirping of birds and insects.Constantly turning the branches, listening to the "squeak" sound of the refining oil droplets, and smelling the tangy aroma unique to meat, Tang Qinqin even had the illusion that he was preparing for a camping picnic at the moment.

The wild boar meat is indeed delicious, delicate, tender and delicious. Tang Qinqin was very satisfied eating the roasted wild boar meat.

Pack the rest of the barbecue, take the filtered water, and continue the journey.

The air gradually became moist. Tang Qinqin inadvertently lowered his head and noticed that the ants on the ground were lined up in several places.

And look carefully, the team of ants is moving towards a higher place.

"The ants are moving, it's going to rain." Tang Qinqin looked up. The sun had disappeared into the clouds at some point, and he could only see the branches and leaves on the treetops swaying with the wind, "The mountain rain is coming."

After looking at the surrounding terrain, Tang Qinqin walked towards the high ground beside the stream.

On the way, he picked as many vines and large leaves as he could, and split the vines into several parts with a dagger. Tang Qinqin interspersed the flexible vines with the wide leaves and braided them together, making a simple "grass shawl" that was not very beautiful. If you can't find a shelter from the rain, you can rely on this to block the moisture from the heavy rain.

The sky gradually became gloomier, the humidity in the air became more and more obvious, and it began to look muggy.Birds in the forest flew over from low altitude, and there was a slight "rustling" sound from the leaves on the branches high up, and then became more and more dense.

"It's raining." Tang Qinqin put a grass shawl over his body, causing a burst of laughter.

"Qinqin, you're so ugly." Xiao Qi laughed.

"It's good if it can protect you from the rain. There's no point in looking good." Tang Qinqin thought for a while and took out his ordinary straw hat and put it on, "How about you give me a good-looking one?"

"..." Xiao Qi's laughter stopped abruptly.

"I don't see any caves here, so I can only wait here for the rain to stop." It was raining and it was not convenient to travel, so Tang Qinqin decided to stay in the open space and rest.

The rain became heavier and heavier, hitting the grass with "crackling" and soaking into the soil. For a while, the surroundings were filled with the sound of rain.

In the rain curtain, looking from a distance, Tang Qinqin's figure looked like an enlarged version of an expanding mushroom.

"How long can this rain last?" A certain Qin kept talking with a pile of chestnut shells at his feet, looking boredly at the rain curtain that became darker and darker as the sky darkened.

"It's not safe to sleep here at night." A cute little girl who eats meat will easily get cold by herself, and sleeping in the rain will be too much for her body.

Hugging the weak, pitiful and helpless self tightly, Tang Qinqin felt sorry for himself for a second.

There was a slight rustling sound behind him.Tang Qinqin was alert and looked back.In the gray night, a small figure broke into sight.It also stared at Tang Qinqin with its big round eyes vigilantly. For a while, one of them stared at Tang Qinqin with one big eye and one with a small one.

Tang Qinqin calmly leaned the grass robe on his body towards it, not daring to make too many moves.

It seemed that he was feeling uncomfortable due to the rain, or perhaps he didn't notice any malicious intent in Tang Qinqin.The little figure slowly got closer and closer, hiding under the grass.

Only then did Tang Qinqin see clearly that this was a fledgling bird.

Wet fur clung to her body, and a pair of round black eyes on her slightly round head stared at her unblinkingly. She might be a little cold, and her paws were hidden under her belly, shrinking slightly.

A good rain hits dandelions.

"What kind of bird is this, Xiaoqi?" Trying to get closer to the bird, Tang Qinqin took out a paper towel and dipped the rainwater on it to dry it.

It is said that the cubs of animals cannot be touched easily. They have their own unique smell and are easily abandoned by their parents if they are contaminated with other smells.This is especially true for wild animals.

The best protection for them is not to disturb or interfere, except in special circumstances.

Tang Qinqin didn't want to affect this cute owl cub, so he dried the rainwater on it and stopped moving.

"There's no way to light a fire now, so you can warm yourself up by the fire."

"Qin Qin, this is an owl, which is what you often call an owl. This is just an eagle owl cub."

"Owl?" Hey, this poor little guy is still a precious bird of prey!

Tang Qinqin subconsciously raised his head and looked around, but couldn't see anything.

"Where are your parents? Little owl?" Looking at the cute creature in front of him, he felt soft in his heart.

The little owl tilted its head, still looking at her cutely.

"Forget it, are you hungry?" Tang Qinqin took out the berries and put them in the palm of his hand. "You are so small, you should eat insects, right?" After stuffing the berries into his mouth, Tang Qinqin thought for a while and did not feed them easily.

"Let's keep this safe distance. This is the [-]th Parallel. Don't cross the line." Looking at the fluffy little owl, it looks like a large dandelion wet by the rain. It's so cute.Especially those big eyes, moist and black, so cute when they look at you intently.

The night was getting deeper, the rain was still pattering, and at some point, Tang Qinqin couldn't bear it anymore and fell asleep.

Actually, it's mainly because it's boring.Had to sleep.

The little owl on the side seemed to be out of energy, and slowly drooped its eyes.
