But Jun Qi didn't care about any of that.

Once inside, he disappeared, which immediately panicked the little guy. After all, no matter what had happened before, his dad had always been with him or taken him along.

But after the initial panic subsided, Nian Nian sensed a trace of Jun Qi's presence in the chicken coop, where various stenches mingled together, making it particularly faint.

Nian Nian blinked, thought for three seconds, and then retreated to wait in the hole they had come from.

Since I can't find him, I'll just wait for him to come to me.

The moon is very round today. Every year when I stand at the entrance of the cave, the moonlight pours down, and the snow reflects this light, making the night seem less dark.

He squatted down every year, and he missed his mother a little.

Even though I know my mother will wake up, the wait is still incredibly difficult.

About ten minutes later, Jun Qi returned.

"Coo coo".

With the hooting of an owl, a dead mouse fell in front of Nian Nian. The mouse wasn't very big; it was just the right size for Nian Nian's mouth to easily swallow.

After swallowing, Nian Nian looked at Jun Qi, who was waiting for the food to be digested so that her father could teach her to spit out the bone balls.

Jun Qi did the same; after he made a cooing sound, Nian Nian also made a soft cooing sound, which meant they were ready.

Then Jun Qi began to gather his strength, his neck began to retract, and the feathers around him fluffed up. He opened his mouth, and a soft clicking sound came from inside.

Seeing this every year, I quickly tried to imitate it. The dead rat I had just eaten had been mostly digested, so I should be able to vomit up the indigestible parts.

"Click~"

"Click~"

Two bone balls of different sizes were spat out one after the other. After spitting them out, Jun Qi turned to look at Niannian. Seeing that he had no further reaction, he pushed him and prepared to go out.

But before we go out, we still have to scare him a little, otherwise he won't be able to get out and his feathers will get stuck.

After returning home, Niannian would stay close to Xu Qiaoqiao and tell her everything that had happened that day, all the new things and new experiences that had been added.

After saying that, Niannian leaned in and gently kissed Xu Qiaoqiao, her eyes softening considerably.

Goodnight, Mom.

I really hope you wake up soon.

After Nian Nian fell asleep, Jun Qi embraced the "mother and child" in his arms and went to sleep in the snowy night.

In the following days, the snow fell again, which made the remaining animals in the forest feel the danger.

Then more and more animals would sneak over to humans at night, whether to sneak into houses to keep warm or for other reasons.

If too many animals go there, the secret will inevitably be exposed.
