Beasts start from stone

The icy cold wind squeezed through the gaps between the layers of leaves, blowing on people's bodies like ice knives.

The air in winter is very dry, and the dense vegetation grows extremely dense and prosperous because no one takes care of it.

"Keli~How are you? 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-type beasts, making it difficult to find bamboo that can be cut down.

Xu Qingge couldn't hold Xiao Linglong all the time.

Not only is it inconvenient, but it is also easy to lose hands and cause danger.

So she used the skills she learned from her grandfather, found some tough rattan, and after a little processing, she made a rattan basket with straps, a lid, and a buckle.

In fact, in terms of weight, Xiao Linglong is not very heavy, and is considered light among C-level pets.

The premise is that she did not walk for half a day. After a long journey, no matter how good her health is, she will be ruined.

But the main burden still came from the bag of gold coins in her pocket, which greatly slowed down her speed.

But gold coins are necessary. The biggest danger along the way is not actually the danger on the road, but Jennifer's appetite.

"Oh~ No matter how hard we try, we can't reach the lotus pond tonight."

"Besides that kind of thing, I don't want to eat any more cookies tonight. Although they are delicious, I want to eat meat!"

"I can't help but attack the civilians around me."

Jennifer looked extremely depressed, and for good reason.

After returning from Grog, Xu Qingge decided that he must set off as soon as possible.

Because Xu Qingge knew that Long Hua's farewell gift would take a long time, but she didn't have much time.

So after discussing with others, the time was set at 0:00 to 1:00 the next day to go to the Lotus Pond.

He wanted to go find Xiao Ruoruo, and Arthur also wanted to go back to see Aunt Elaine.

Because of this, Jennifer specially left a bowl of mapo tofu for breakfast on the road.

The Wanjia Bird's Nest had no door lock, because only he and Grogg knew where to put the valuables, which gave Jennifer the opportunity to sneak into the kitchen.

But when Jennifer went to the kitchen to look for food at midnight, the bowl of mapo tofu was missing.

Originally, the bowl of mapo tofu was placed in the kitchen to make Wanle think that they would not leave the next day.

Jennifer also specifically told Wanle about this, so it was definitely not dumped.

Furious, he directly pulled Alger away and sneaked into the shadow rooms one by one to check the smell of the guests.

The smell of chili pepper cannot dissipate so quickly. Even after taking a shower, Jennifer's strange eyes can still identify the contents of the stomach.

Such a bold thief should naturally replace Mapo Tofu as his breakfast.

Thanks to the sneaking shadows and strange eyes, the search only took ten minutes, but even so, nothing was found.

Of course, the matter of checking the guests was kept hidden from Xu Qingge, after all, Jennifer was a good baby.

"what!"

After hearing Jennifer's words, all the pet beasts around them screamed in terror and began to run away.

Their eyes were filled with fear. After all, everyone in Poe knew about Jennifer's notoriety.

"Jennifer, you're kidding, right?"

Xu Qingge couldn't help but feel a headache.

I hope that after arriving at the lotus pond, Jennifer can restrain her language a bit.

"Of course, my little lady, you should know that I am just complaining because I am hungry."

Jennifer didn't think much of it, it was just some running meat.

What effect can that kind of escape speed have?

"Nan Nan~ There is a sound of water." I don't know if it's because all the pet beasts around him have disappeared, but the slight sound of the river seems to be very clear.

"Then let's go to the waterside and have a rest. It's just in time for lunch."

Xu Qingge also felt a little tired, after all, he had been traveling for almost twelve hours.

"Roger that!"

As soon as lunch was mentioned, Jennifer suddenly became interested.

"Wait a minute, let me walk over slowly. If you carry me on your back again, I will fall apart."

Xu Qingge quickly took a step forward and avoided Jennifer's claws.

"Tch, it's boring. Then I'll leave slowly."

Jennifer retracted her paws as if nothing was wrong and walked slowly, but her eyes kept glancing at Xu Qingge's gloves.

This was not because he fell in love with the props made by Merlin, but because he just 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 Mapo Tofu theft case was a minor matter, Jennifer had a vague premonition of something ominous.

He always felt as if he and his party were being watched.

But in order to prevent Xu Qingge from feeling nervous, he chose to hide this feeling.

After all, he had heard that when you get nervous, your muscles start to shake and get sore.

If the quality of lunch is affected by this little thing, it will be a waste.

"Nannan~"

The blue flames burned through the dense bushes and opened a path.

Although setting fires in the forest is dangerous, blue fire pumpkins can swallow up wildfires.

Fire beasts are very sensitive to flames, and there is also Arthur, a water beast in the team.

Not only can open flames be eliminated completely, but the possibility of re-ignition is also reduced to zero.

As everyone moved forward, their eyes suddenly opened up, and a river with clear water and wide banks appeared.

This happens to be the ideal place to rest.

Xu Qingge saw many insect-type beasts on both sides of the river and was even more satisfied with this place.

You know, although insect-type pets look weird, they are responsible for testing water quality.

There are so many insect-type pets that you can drink the river water directly by boiling it.

"Just rest here."

Xu Qingge put down the basket on his back and found a stone to rest on.

She rubbed her sore shoulders. Although the rattan was rough, it had almost no effect because it was separated by several layers of clothes.

Jennifer and Arthur also sat down. Pet animals are also familiar with humans.

"Nannan~ Let me go get some water."

Because Blue Fire Pumpkin basically relies on its own energy to move, even if it consumes energy and burns the bushes, his physical fitness is still the best among them.

Alger took out the earthen jar from his shadow, which was originally used to store resin, but the resin was all consumed by Hameln's body.

"Be careful not to fall into the river."

Xu Qingge kindly reminded that although the river water was very clear, the rocks on both sides of the river bank were covered with moss.

It seems that the water in this river sometimes rises.
