Chapter 28 Encountering a Panda Baby in the Bamboo Forest

This was a time to escape, and Zuo Shan didn't have time to think about whether what she was seeing was an illusion. She pushed him hard, trying to get him out of her way.

However... nothing happened!

The man stood firmly in the middle of the road, grabbed her by the collar, and said in a deep voice, "What level is the mutated beast that appeared over there?"

"Cough cough! Let go! Who knows what level it is? Let me tell you, a good dog doesn't block the way, even if you're just a phantom. Get out of my way and don't delay my escape!"

Zuo Shan struggled desperately, but she felt like a chick being strangled by a butcher in this man's hands. No matter how hard she tried, it was all in vain.

Just when she was getting really anxious, the man suddenly let go of her, and she fell flat on her backside.

She opened her mouth to hurl insults, only to find that the man had vanished without a trace.

An untimely line of poetry came to mind: "You came softly, just as softly you left, waving your sleeves, without taking away a single cloud."

Ugh! That scoundrel!

In a fantasy world, shouldn't a handsome man descend from the sky, give the heroine in danger a princess carry, and then wave his hand to drive away the demons and monsters?

But what did he do? He grabbed her by the collar, asked her a question, and when he didn't get the answer he wanted, he threw her to the ground.

She's pregnant! Isn't he afraid she and her unborn child will die?

Okay, in fact she showed no signs of wanting to miscarry, but he should at least stay a few more minutes to give her a chance to stage an accident, right?

Forget it, this is a wasteland, there are no human rights here, escaping is the most important thing, why think about these things?

Zuo Shan ran all the way and finally ran into the tall bamboo forest. She chose the thickest bamboo and started climbing it in no time.

The bamboo here has a rough outer skin, and the horizontal branches are strong enough to provide leverage, so she quickly climbed to a height of more than ten meters.

She found a spot with dense bamboo leaves and hid herself among a few bamboo leaves the size of banana leaves, finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

The battle over there seemed to be continuing. Da Guobao's mournful roars were getting weaker and weaker. It seemed that the mercenary group had won.

Zuo Shan finally felt relieved. Although she really didn't want to hurt the Great Treasure, it was just too huge and its combat power was too terrifying.

Such a behemoth is impossible for humans to tame, and therefore, it is a formidable enemy to humankind.

She couldn't stand from the perspective of ordinary humans on Earth and protect it as a rare species, even though it looked so cute and adorable.

In reality, its lethality is no less than that of fifty mercenaries.

Zuo Shan sighed inwardly, but her stance remained firm. If she possessed the ability to kill it, she would certainly not show any mercy.

After all, she wasn't an animal trainer, so she didn't have the ability to communicate with it, let alone guarantee that it could coexist peacefully with humans.

She was listening intently to what was happening when she suddenly heard a rustling sound behind her, which gave her goosebumps.

Could there be other mutated beasts hiding on this big bamboo?

During this time, she had roughly understood the danger of mutated beasts. Even a small mutated beast could kill a lone ordinary human in no time.

Without thinking further, she immediately used her fastest speed, employing both hands and feet, to slide down under the bamboo.

But the thing behind her seemed to have its eye on her and followed closely behind. When she was still more than three meters from the ground, she slipped and fell straight down.

It's over, it's over, I'm doomed!

She cried out inwardly, but then she heard a gust of wind rush past her ear, and a shadow jumped off the ground behind her before she could react.

Is this thing trying to compete with her to see who can climb down the tree faster?

The absurd thought crossed her mind, and at the same time, she fell to the ground.

Huh? Why doesn't it hurt? It feels like I landed on a thick cushion of flesh?

When Zuo Shan came to her senses, she found that there really was a fluffy fleshy pad under her.

She stared wide-eyed and met a pair of large, round, wet, black and white eyes. They were set on a snow-white, soft, fluffy face, looking like two crystal-clear black gems set in the snow.

A pair of delicate black and white ears, paired with a small mouth with the corners of the lips slightly upturned.

This...this is clearly an adorable, incredibly cute panda cub!

Judging by its weight, it should weigh no more than two kilograms, about the same as an average adult domestic cat. Thinking back to the giant giant cat that Zuo Shan had seen before, he could hardly believe his eyes.

At that moment, the panda cub was looking at her with a pitiful expression, making "whimpering" sounds. Unexpectedly, Zuo Shan felt as if she understood what it meant.

It's saying: "Baby was playing with you, why did you hit baby? Ouch!"

Left Fan: That's foul, that's so unfair! Please stop acting cute! My heart is melting!

After taking a few deep breaths, she finally regained her composure.

This panda cub in front of me must be the offspring of that big panda from before, right? Otherwise, it wouldn't be able to appear in this bamboo forest.

Moreover, in this bamboo forest, there is probably only that one giant panda with its cubs.

I remember this bamboo forest had been cleared by a mercenary group before, so there shouldn't be any large mutated beasts there. But this great treasure, perhaps because it was pregnant and giving birth, found this seemingly safe bamboo forest.

Unfortunately, it shouldn't have ventured into areas where humans live, which led to the tragic consequences.

Reason told Zuo Shan that she should throw away the panda cub or hand it over to the mercenary group, but it had just served as her cushion, saving her and her unborn cub's lives, and she simply couldn't be so ungrateful.

Moreover, the idea of ​​protecting giant pandas, ingrained in her from childhood, made it impossible for her to bear watching such a panda cub be killed.

After much deliberation, she finally decided to take it home temporarily, since it would be difficult for it to survive alone in the wild without its mother's care.

Just then, she suddenly heard Jia Yiming calling out, "Miss Zuo, Miss Zuo, where are you? Answer me if you hear me."

It seems that the battle over there has ended, and Commander Lei sent him out to find her.

Zuo Shan quickly picked up the panda cub, stuffed it into his backpack, and thoughtfully picked up a few bamboo leaves to cover it.

She slipped one hand into her bag and gently stroked its fur and scratched its itch. The little guy then lay obediently in the bag and stopped moving around.

She then shouted at the top of her lungs, "Brother Jia, I'm here!"

Jia Yiming came to find her alone, and as soon as they met, he exclaimed, "You're really something! You run faster than a rabbit!"

Fortunately, you ran fast. Of our fifty people, five were seriously injured, two died, and even Commander Lei almost died!

Fortunately, a big shot from the Inner Tenth District arrived, possessing the ability to teleport, and managed to rescue him from the jaws of that mutated iron-eating beast.

Jia Yiming's words conveyed too much information. Zuo Shan finally realized that the man who seemed to be the father of her unborn child had actually appeared, and it wasn't her hallucination.
