Although she didn't want to, Gu Shibing followed her.
He also ate the leftover fish that day; contrary to his cold exterior, he actually enjoyed eating.
Actually, it was because he had just emerged from hibernation. Although he appeared calm, he was actually very hungry.
He was so hungry he could devour the original forms of all the beastmen present, though of course he wouldn't actually eat them—that would be too evil.
The clothes he was wearing weren't very comfortable, but because the other beastmen around him looked fierce and menacing, he decided to endure it a little longer.
the next day.
They walked across the snowfield, which was now far from the tribe they had left and also some distance from the forest they had been in before.
Suddenly, the roars of wild beasts echoed across the snowfield as two polar bears approached them, fighting each other.
It could be a battle for a mate, or it could be a dispute over territory.
Are they orcs?
While being carried on Qin Qiu's back, Ye Nianzhen asked the people around her.
"no."
This time, unlike yesterday when they insisted that Gu Shibing was a beastman, they unanimously stated that the two white bears were not beastmen.
"Oh, that's alright." Ye Nianzhen said this because she felt that she no longer needed to deal with other beastmen, as dealing with them also required effort.
But Mu Guang scoffed, "What's so good about it? It's not just the beastmen that's troublesome. If they keep roaring like that, an avalanche will bury us all alive!"
"Then what should we do?"
Ye Nianzhen asked them, while consciously lowering her voice.
"There's no other way but to either kill them all or run!"
Red Glauber's salt answered them, and at the same time, it sped off in one direction.
Ye Nianzhen didn't know how they judged the direction of the avalanche and ran towards safety at the same time, just as she didn't know how these guys could distinguish between beastmen and non-beastmen.
All she knew was that Qin Qiu was running even faster, bouncing up and down, making her feel a little nauseous.
Luo Shui reached out her hand and asked Ye Nianzhen, "Shall I switch? I'm more reliable."
Ye Nianzhen nodded, and Qin Qiu tossed her up. Luo Shui caught her quickly and steadily, completing the handover.
That's good. The bear's embrace is warm and protects against the wind and snow, and the way it holds you is definitely more stable.
After running for a while, sure enough, a thunderous roar that made one's soul tremble came from afar. A snow curtain like ocean waves slid down from the sky, rushing towards the low-lying areas with an overwhelming momentum.
Fortunately, they ran fast and bought some time. The two polar bears, who were only focused on fighting, were not so lucky and were directly covered by the snow.
"It's spectacular..."
Ye Nianzhen looked at the snowfield that had been transformed. The thick snow piled up until it filled the valley below before calming down. Snowflakes fell in a flurry, as if brewing the next outburst of nature's anger.

After this little incident, they became much more careful when walking on the street than before.
That night they hunted a deer. Because it was an animal that looked like Mingyuan's beast form, Hongxiao and Muguang always looked at Mingyuan with a malicious expression while they were eating it.
So you really can't shake off some of the villainous traits? Mingyuan is not someone to be trifled with. He'll turn into his beast form and kick you, and you'll all behave.
Despite being a villain, Gu Shibing is surprisingly well-behaved this time; he could even be described as somewhat innocent.
And why was he so insistent on believing that Ye Nianzhen was a saint? Because he cared so much, Ye Nianzhen asked him.
He said, "Because I can hear the voice of the Beast God."
Ye Nianzhen didn't believe it. She thought that if she heard any sounds, it was more likely the voice of the mastermind behind the scenes.
After they finished eating, they went to sleep.
Only Ye Nianzhen could sleep in the tent; everyone else transformed into their more cold-resistant beast forms and stood guard outside. But... Gu Shibing insisted on coming in and sleeping with them.
The reason is that he is a snake, which cannot generate heat and will freeze to death.
This seemed like a flawless reason, but Ye Nianzhen ruthlessly kicked him out: "If you were going to freeze to death, you would have frozen to death long ago!"
That makes a lot of sense. Now Gu Shibing has to think about why he didn't freeze to death before.
"Because you're an ice-type ability user, right?"
Unable to sleep, Luo Shui came over to join in the fun. He said, "I'm also an ice-type ability user, but I use all my abilities in beast form, so it's okay if I don't use my special abilities."
He discovered this when he went fishing before.
He was so angry because he couldn't catch any fish that he froze a section of the water that day.
However, this matter is also very special. Generally, beastmen do not awaken superpowers; superpowers are a human talent.
Gu Shibing wasn't very familiar with this either: "Really? But I always felt it wasn't ice-based...maybe it's something else?"
"Who knows you?"
Luo Shui ignored him and went to sleep next to Ye Nianzhen's tent. He fell asleep quickly this time and didn't even have to wake up from nightmares anymore.
Speaking of that dream... it's always about a girl falling off a cliff, and she looks exactly like Ye Nianzhen.
Never mind, I'm so sleepy, I'd better go to sleep first.
In the middle of the night, Mingyuan also woke up from a nightmare.
He dreamt that he was too weak, which caused the girl in his dream to get hurt repeatedly. In the end, the girl fell off a cliff and was never found again.
He had dreamt this dream countless times, and only recently had he been able to see the girl's face clearly. It was... Ye Nianzhen.
I went to a slightly farther place to get some fresh air, and there Qin Qiu was there too.
He stared blankly at the moon, which was obscured by dark clouds, lost in thought.
After a while, he murmured, "The moon... Ye Nianzhen..."
Mingyuan immediately turned his head away, but said nothing. He knew that their thoughts were similar. Besides wanting to protect Ye Nianzhen, they also had that inexplicable emotion and some obsessive thoughts.
Ye Nianzhen initially claimed that they knew each other and had been partners, but he didn't believe it.
But now, he's thinking that what Ye Nianzhen said might very well be true.
Why did they lose their memories, and even their identities seem to have changed? Who is behind all this?
What force is controlling them?
If there really is a manipulator behind this, can all of this be considered real?
Most importantly, can their feelings for Ye Nianzhen be considered genuine?
Mingyuan glanced at the direction of Ye Nianzhen's tent from afar, his expression somewhat gloomy.
If someone really orchestrated all of this, he vowed that he would find that person, skin them alive, and teach them a lesson about the consequences of manipulating people's hearts.
As for Ye Nianzhen, he didn't know why, but he was willing to believe everything she said unconditionally.
He believed her.
