Is this really that simple? Is it a bit beyond their imagination?
Is there really no mistake in that link? "Go in?"
"I think so."
"Then go in and take a look!"
Because of its attributes, the clouded leopard tiger is a burrowing creature.
Their nests are usually half above ground and half underground.
For example, the cave of the clouded leopard tiger that Qiao Bai and Li Gan found in front of them.
Part of the ground is a cave.
The underground continued to be hollowed out by clouded leopards and tigers.
Standing outside the cave and looking inside, it is simply a huge cave with no bottom.
It's pitch black.
I didn't smell anything strange.
Come to think of it, it’s not completely incomprehensible.
After all, extraordinary creatures are also intelligent creatures.
No one likes their home to smell weird.
It’s not comfortable to live alone.
"Do you really want to... go in?" Li Gan's tone couldn't help but reveal a hint of hesitation.
It's not that he's not afraid...
All right.
He was indeed a little scared.
The cave in front of us looks too deep and dark, which always makes people think of many bad things.
Qiao Bai's expression looked much calmer: "The danger shouldn't be that serious."
"The clouded leopard tiger is not a supernatural creature that lives in groups."
"If this is really the lair of the clouded leopard tiger we killed, then there shouldn't be a second clouded leopard tiger in here."
If they are lucky, they might even be able to find pet eggs of clouded leopards and tigers.
As he spoke, Qiao Bai looked at Li Gan.
Li Gan: “…”
want to.
"Okay...well, now that we're here, I think we still need to go in and take a look." Li Gan said righteously, with a serious expression that couldn't be more serious.
That's right.
That's it!
It was definitely not because he was moved by what Qiao Bai said! He just came here simply because he was here! Qiao Bai smiled.
Li Gan still looked away awkwardly.
Cough cough.
Although but.
Just pretend that he has no idea what Qiao Bai is laughing at!
"Let's go." Qiao Bai held the cave with one hand and jumped down first.
Li Gan: “!”
“Fuck!”
"You're going to die!"
Li Gan said loudly, not daring to delay at all, and hurriedly followed Qiao Bai's footsteps.
I didn't even have time to think about whether I was nervous or not, my first reaction was that nothing must happen to Qiao Bai!
The moment he landed on the soft ground, Li Gan's brain was still a little dazed.
no?
What happened just now? Did he really just jump down without any preparation?
Li Gan looked pale.
Mo Mo's heart was still beating wildly.
He was obviously frightened by Qiao Bai's actions just now.
"No big deal." Qiao Bai looked at Li Gan's appearance and said helplessly.
"I saw the depth of the cave and thought I could handle it, so I jumped down."
"Take your eyes away. I'm really not that reckless."
There was a hint of helplessness in Qiao Bai's tone.
He is really curious.
What kind of image is he in Li Gan's mind?
A reliable big daddy? Or an unreliable good brother? "Shut up!" Li Gan punched Qiao Bai on the shoulder without any hesitation, with some indescribable anger in his voice.
Li Gan glared at Qiao Bai fiercely: "I really thought you were crazy!"
Such a deep cave! What if he accidentally falls down and something goes wrong? Even if he really wants to jump down, shouldn’t he test the water first? Li Gan said with a stern face: "If you do this again next time, I won’t look for you anymore!"
"It would be great if I could just find an expedition team to be my boss!"
Qiao Bai's expression was helpless and funny.
no?
Use it to threaten him?
Is this true or false?
Are you kidding me? But Qiao Bai did not fail to understand what Li Gan meant.
Li Gan really cares about him.
I also hope that Qiao Bai can pay more attention to his own safety.
"Okay, okay, I get it." What else could Qiao Bai do?
I could only nod in agreement.
Seeing this, Li Gan didn't insist on this topic anymore.
His eyes moved around.
It was pitch black inside the cave, and my field of vision was greatly affected. I could only see a few things clearly.
But I am quite sensitive to the touch of the soles of my feet.
"It's a bit soft." Li Gan stomped his feet and felt it.
That's how he felt when he just jumped down.
Anyone who has climbed over the wall knows this.
When I jumped down from the high wall and landed on the ground, my feet were numb.
That feeling is so sour and refreshing.
I didn't have this feeling when I touched the artistic button that landed just now. I even felt that the ground was a little too soft.
If Li Gan didn't have rich experience in cushioning, he would be afraid that he would accidentally sprain his ankle.
No joke.
It is very likely to happen.
Qiao Bai nodded. He had the same feeling: "There should be a lot of hay, leaves, hair and other things on the ground."
Lay together.
Still a thick layer.
This will give people the feeling of stepping on it and being completely trapped.
Thinking of this, Qiao Bai gave Li Gan a look.
Li Gan: “?”
The tacit understanding between Li Gan and Qiao Bai disappeared completely at this moment.
tacit agreement?
What tacit understanding? There is none at all! Qiao Bai looked at Li Gan with a look of disappointment: "Use your brain, can you?"
Li Gan: “No.”
"Don't we have this external brain of yours?" Li Gan looked quite righteous as he spoke.
Qiao Bai was almost pissed off by this guy and laughed.
"Okay." Qiao Bai sighed and said, "The clouded leopard tiger is not an extraordinary creature that likes to enjoy itself."
This is true for most supernatural beings.
enjoy?
Spend your time and energy.
It's good enough.
Just make do and survive, and on that basis try to make your life better and grab more food, this is the basic logic of most extraordinary creatures.
"It's not the normal logic for a clouded leopard to make so many preparations for the cave."
"So these enjoyments of the clouded leopard and tiger are not prepared for themselves."
Qiao Bai did not say the final conclusion directly, but gave Li Gan a look again.
He has said so much.
Li Gan still can't figure it out, right?
Then Qiao Bai would really start to doubt himself and his life.
Fortunately, Li Gan is not really that stupid.
As he listened, Li Gan's eyes suddenly lit up.
Got it!
He understood everything! "It's a pet egg!"
In the darkness, Li Gan's eyes were as bright as light bulbs, as if they could glow, and he looked at Qiao Bai with his eyes wide open.
Qiao Bai smiled and nodded: "Ruzi is teachable."
"Then let's act quickly!" Li Gan couldn't stay any longer when he thought about getting a cloud-patterned leopard-tiger pet egg.
Action action!
He was full of strength! "Let's go." Qiao Bai waved his hand, not really caring.
It's normal to be excited.
And...Qiao Bai had a hunch that he might be able to find something in this cave.
As for what exactly it is…
It’s hard to say for Qiao Bai now.
…
Star City.
"Ah, today is the day I have finished my work beautifully and can go home normally." Jiang Heng stretched lazily with contentment, a big smile on his face.
Happy.
I am so happy.
She has maintained this regular life for a long time.
What a happy thing this is for a worker, especially one who often works overtime!
Jiang Heng prayed from the bottom of his heart.
I hope this kind of happiness can last a little longer.
Then……
Because there were still ten minutes before the end of get off work, I didn't close the work software, so it made a "ding dong" sound.
Jiang Heng's stretching movement froze in mid-air.
etc.
Jiang Heng looked solemnly at the work software with a red dot popping up in the upper right corner, his sixth sense in his heart was not good.
At this delicate point, a message suddenly came.
What else could it be? Jiang Heng fought back.
Jiang Heng didn't want to click it.
Jiang Heng wanted to pretend that he saw nothing.
Just hold on for a few minutes...
Ding dong ding dong ding dong——
The sounds of work software rang out one after another.
Jiang Heng let out a long breath from his chest.
She knew that today's incident was not something she could avoid just by wanting to.
Click on the software.
Jiang Heng closed his eyes again with a heavy face.
"What a damn thing--!" Jiang Heng's angry voice broke through the office door.
But people outside were not surprised at all.
Therefore, the sounds that came one after another also echoed in the office.
What the hell! What a horrible thing! Damn it! A huge workload has fallen from the sky!
Ning Ruxue arrived at the agreed restaurant, but no one showed up yet: "?"
"Really? You guys have to work overtime again? What's going on?"
Ning Ruxue called, her tone filled with doubt and confusion.
Generally speaking.
There is no mandatory overtime work in Jiang Heng's department.
Most overtime is due to the fact that the work cannot be completed within normal working hours.
many.
Too many.
Only by giving up normal rest time and seizing every minute can we finish all the work before the deadline.
Fortunately, the company pays sufficient overtime pay.
However, since the addition of the mechanical pet, Jiang Heng's work has become much easier.
Be neat and regular. As long as you don't slack off during work hours, you can complete all the work within the specified time.
For Jiang Heng and his friends, this is a happiness that they cannot ask for any more.
Want more? That's really greedy! So why do you want to work overtime?
Jiang Heng's resentment was so exaggerated that Ning Ruxue on the other end could feel it even through the phone.
"Why don't you work overtime?"
"What happened to the agreement that the inspection team and our headquarters are brothers in distress?"
"Why don't you step up when the time comes for you to perform?"
Ning Ruxue: “???”
Ning Ruxue has so many question marks above her head.
"What on earth happened?" Ning Ruxue frowned slightly, and realized that the situation seemed different from what she had imagined.
It should be said that what happened was a little more serious than she imagined.
But what Ning Ruxue didn't expect was.
Jiang Heng, who usually kept nothing secret from her and shared all information with her, said nothing today.
"It's not that I don't want to tell you, it's just that the situation is quite serious."
Looking at Ning Ruxue's frown, Jiang Heng sighed helplessly.
Although I don’t know why the inspection team didn’t receive the news.
but……
How did the Empire Spire know the news that had not been released in their country? This is a very serious question.
spy?
Or is someone reselling the information?
Whether it is the former or the latter, it is not a good thing for them.
Thinking of this, Jiang Heng's resentment also subsided a lot: "Wait a little longer, you should know what's going on tomorrow at the latest."
Jiang Heng comforted Ning Ruxue gently.
Ning Ruxue did not ask any further questions when she saw this.
Two people can become good friends forever, so there is still a sense of propriety.
Hang up the phone.
Jiang Heng continued to immerse himself in his work and work overtime.
"Tonight is another sleepless night."
Jiang Heng let out a long breath from his chest.
Ahhh——
Damn it! She was still so angry! She hadn't had to work overtime for a long time, where on earth did these damn spies come from!
Give her back her normal rest time!
Jiang Heng continues to go crazy.
…
smoothly.
The process went so smoothly that Qiao Bai and Li Gan found it a little unbelievable.
no?
Is it really that simple?
Aren’t there any obstacles?
Without any obstruction, he easily arrived in front of the clouded leopard-tiger pet egg.
Looking at the two huge pet eggs on the ground.
The two of you looked at each other.
"Maybe my luck really is that good?" Qiao Bai said uncertainly.
Li Gan pondered: "Who do you think is lucky between us?"
Good question.
have no idea.
So let's skip it for now.
"Don't worry about that for now." Li Gan wiped his face with a serious expression: "Take the egg first!"
The rest? Oh! We'll talk about the rest later!
Qiao Bai: “…”
Okay.
It’s not impossible.
Li Gan walked forward excitedly, holding the pet egg, with a grin on his face.
He was really happy.
The next pet has been decided, and the pet's qualifications are really quite good.
Li Gan was not dissatisfied at all.
Can't we get the same style as Qiao Bai? This is pretty good, isn't it? Looking at Li Gan's silly smile, Qiao Bai shook his head in amusement.
Can you be happy like this? Right at this moment.
Qiao Bai suddenly felt the two pieces of debris in his arms getting hot.
Qiao Bai: “?”
Qiao Bai didn't hesitate and quickly took out both pieces.
But Qiao Bai's movements were still a little slow.
"Huh?!!!" Li Gan on the side also exclaimed.
The debris was getting hotter.
