Yu Wanwan slung her backpack on, ready to head out. However, the moment she opened the door, her other foot simply couldn't step out. Before her now was a scene of silver-clad beauty, covered i...
Bai Jing's body transformed into a beast at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Baihu roared softly a few times, signaling Yu Wanwan to climb onto his back.
She carefully grabbed Bai Jing's smooth fur and climbed up quickly without hurting him.
After sitting down, Bai Jing stood up from the ground. Yu Wanwan grabbed the skin on his neck with some fear and lowered her body, fearing that she would fall down.
The tiger roared, as if to say, "Get ready to go," and then ran away like a gust of wind.
The scenery in front of her quickly receded, the wind rushed past her ears, Yu Wanwan hugged him tighter, and her legs tightly clamped around his strong waist.
Bai Jing took her to a large forest.
Although it was still winter, the area was still lush and green, the soil was very fertile, the trees were covered with red fruits, and the low bushes under the trees were full of berries.
Yu Wanwan slid down Bai Jing's tail and asked, "Why are there fruits here in winter?"
Bai Jing transformed into a human form, put on an animal skin skirt, and said, "This is a place I discovered before. Even in winter, there are fruits here to eat."
Yu Wanwan didn't really care whether the fruits here were edible or not. She just wanted to go home: "Can you take me to the woods where I came from?"
Her original purpose in following out was to find the way home.
Bai Jing lowered his head and looked at the young female's tender face. He almost immediately guessed what she was thinking: "Are you trying to find a way back?"
Yu Wanwan looked flustered and a little scared. If she told the truth, Bai Jing would lock her up like a human trafficker and never let her out again.
She stammered and lied: "No, I just wanted to go over and take a look."
The little female's concealment made Bai Jing feel a little bitter. He touched Yu Wanwan's cheek and said gently, "If you want to go back, I won't stop you. As long as you are happy, that's all that matters."
"Really?"
Bai Jing nodded: "I will take you to see that forest tomorrow."
After getting Bai Jing's promise, Yu Wanwan's mood improved visibly, and she ran around in the orchard like a little bird.
She noticed the fruits in the bushes, which were big, red, and covered with crystal dewdrops, looking very tempting.
After confirming with Bai Jing, Yu Wanwan picked one, rubbed it on her clothes twice, and put it in her mouth.
The sweet taste of the fruit immediately filled her mouth. The flesh was juicy and full of fruity aroma. It tasted a bit like black plums, sour and sweet with an attractive milky aroma.
Bai Jing explained, "This fruit is called the sweet milk fruit. Many females love to eat it. However, your injury hasn't healed yet, so you should eat more meat to supplement your nutrition."
Yu Wanwan nodded obediently, but her hands kept picking the sweet milk fruits.
These past few days, she had experienced what it was like to have nothing to eat during a famine.
Seeing this, Bai Jing picked a large leaf from not far away and handed it to Yu Wanwan.
Yu Wanwan took a look and thought that if she put the fruit directly on it, it would fall off easily when she took it back.
She thought about it for a while, and suddenly an idea came to her. She bent the leaves into a cone-shaped bowl, so that the fruit would not be lost when she put it in!
Bai Jing was obviously surprised as well. He praised her generously, "The little female is so smart."
After picking the fruits, Yu Wanwan continued to wander in the woods. She heard a rustling sound in the grass. Before she could react, she was picked up by Bai Jing. After a few ups and downs, Bai Jing put her on a big tree.
Yu Wanwan had never climbed such a high tree in her life. The empty feeling under her feet scared her so much that she felt weak all over.
"Wait for me here, I'll be back soon."
After saying this, Bai Jing turned his head and jumped directly from a tree that was dozens of meters high. When he was about to touch the ground, he changed his body shape, and in the blink of an eye, a mighty white tiger landed lightly on the ground.
Bai Jing didn't walk too far. Yu Wanwan, who was standing high and seeing far, soon saw the target of Bai Jing's pursuit.
Bai Jing, who had transformed into a beast, hid in the bushes behind the beast. The beast had not yet realized the danger. Just as it lowered its head to drink water again, Bai Jing jumped out like a ray of light and bit off the beast's neck.
Watching a hunting activity in the animal world in person had a huge impact on Yu Wanwan, and it also made her deeply aware of how insignificant her own fighting power was in this alien world full of ferocious beasts.
