He looked up and from his perspective, the tree was at least twenty meters tall.
Those stupid pheasants couldn't even fly half that height.
"Let's go meet that pioneer," the woman prayed, "I hope he'll be willing to team up with us."
The man nodded, he also had the same idea.
The two of them looked in the direction where the footprints disappeared.
At this time, Tu Ran was half-squatting by the river, using the water flow to wash the long knife, and the coagulated blood on the knife flowed away with the water.
The river is very shallow.
Pangpang jumped into the river and splashed water to play.
The water splashed on Tu Ran's body and face.
Tu Ran wiped the water off her face and looked at Pang Pang, "Don't just play around, wash your feathers too, they're so dirty."
Pangpang said "Oh" and took a bath obediently.
Tu Ran rinsed the long sword clean and put it back into the scabbard.
Sitting on a huge rock on the river bank, he ate the inner elixir obtained from the roe deer owl.
【Vajra Body】
Intermediate supernatural power.
Rapidly repairs wounds and provides a certain degree of resistance to various types of attacks, including but not limited to physical attacks.
Tu Ran looked at the wound on her finger left by the use of "Realm of Illusion" before.
At this time, the wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye and returned to its original state without any visible scar.
With such amazing recovery ability, I'm afraid she won't need to use the medical department's nutrition cabin anymore.
"Boss, Pangpang can't wash his head." Pangpang shouted helplessly in the river. His wings were too short.
Tu Ran: So she, as the boss, has to be responsible for bathing her younger brother? "Come to the shore." Tu Ran said in a gloomy voice.
Pangpang quickly stood up from the river and walked to the shore with wet feathers.
All its feathers were soaked, and its entire body seemed smaller.
Tu Ran scooped water from the river with a kettle and poured it on its head.
"Just wash with water?"
"Yes." said Fatty.
"Can it be washed clean?" Tu Ran was skeptical.
"Pangpang always washes with clean water."
"I have bath liquid. Use it to wash."
She prepared the shower gel herself, in a small bag.
Specially used for bathing in the threshold.
She took out a small bag from the bag, tore it open, and applied it to her chubby, furry head and body.
"It smells so good." Pangpang stood there obediently.
Tu Ran ignored it and kept kneading the foam, just like she was giving her pet cat a bath.
Tu Ran paused. Isn't she just raising a pet in the village? She finds food for the pet every day, takes it everywhere, hides it when it encounters danger, and now gives it a bath. What is the difference between this and raising a pet? I'm afraid the only difference is that her pet is different from ordinary cats and dogs.
Her pet is not only big in size, but can also talk.
Of course it's not that it can speak, but that she can understand what it says.
It also has its own thoughts and can lead her.
Lead the way?
In this way, it is more like a pet.
Compared to pet cats, Pangpang prefers pet dogs.
"Wow, this bubble can float!"
Fatty flapped his wings, trying to make more bubbles float up.
But it made Tu Ran covered in foam.
Tu Ran slapped it on the head like disciplining a disobedient dog, "Stand still and don't move."
"Okay, boss."
Good attitude of admitting mistakes.
But after a while, it couldn't control itself anymore. "Wow, all these bubbles were washed away by the water flow."
It stretched out its short legs to step on the bubbles. Tu Ran slapped it on the butt again, "If you move again, I'll throw you away!"
Fatty quickly retracted his feet and stood still. It was just like having a pet dog.
In the distance, two humans looked at the scene in front of them with shock on their faces.
The man raised his bracelet silently.
Record everything.
They need to report it to the federal government.
A pioneer lived in harmony with an alien species in the threshold and even gave it a bath.
Traitor to humanity.
Shame on the Pioneers.
"She appeared on the headlines of the Federation news. An infected alien species appeared on a Federation train. She and a researcher minimized the spread of the alien species in time and saved many lives."
The woman stared at Tu Ran.
"Could she be possessed by a parasitic alien?"
"She can handle three roe owls by herself, how could she be easily possessed?"
"Are you sure it's her?" The woman still couldn't believe it.
"Besides her, we haven't run into anyone else along the way. Look at that chicken. Doesn't it match the footprints we saw? And the knife on her back is the one that was pulled out of the roe owl's skull."
The woman felt mixed emotions.
I originally thought that if I could find the pioneer who killed the three roe owls, I could surrender to him and get his protection.
I didn't expect that the other party was a woman who seemed to have little fighting ability.
And it is also closely related to alien species.
It is not certain whether they are friends or enemies.
Tu Ran was still giving Pang Pang a bath with her back to them, and did not realize that what she was doing was being recorded.
Pangpang was using his wings to fan the bubbles higher, trying hard to prevent them from falling. Suddenly, his eyes met those two people in the woods behind him.
The man grabbed the woman's hand and said, "Run!"
Pang Pang was a little confused. He rubbed his eyes and looked again, but there was no one there.
Is it dazzled?
"Boss, Fatty just saw two bipeds. They were wearing clothes very similar to yours."
Tu Ran paused as she scooped water to rinse the foam off its body.
Looking back, she saw layers of large trees blocking her view, and there was no human figure around.
"Which direction?"
"Over there." Fatty pointed in a direction with his wings.
Tu Ran threw down the kettle and said, "Stay here."
After saying that, she quickly ran in that direction.
Like her equipment, the description is also a pioneer.
Their bracelets must have recorded what happened just now, which is why Pang Pang suddenly ran away after seeing it.
Tu Ran used instant movement and in the blink of an eye he saw the two people running.
She quickened her speed and stopped in front of them in an instant.
The two were stopped instantly and looked at her in horror.
This speed is definitely not something a normal person can achieve.
"What do you want to do?" The man stared at her warily and pulled the woman behind him.
"The danghu bird you saw is my pet. It can't possess humans, nor can it infect humans. It poses no threat to humans. Just like a kitten or a puppy, it is my companion who keeps me entertained in the Threshold."
The man didn't understand what she meant and remained silent.
The woman said weakly from behind, "But it is still an alien species. We are pioneers and should keep our distance from them."
The man pulled her, and she fell silent instantly, looking at Tu Ran anxiously.
She seemed to have said the wrong thing.
Tu Ran curled the corners of her lips, "So you should be aware of the impact that your filmed content will have on me if it is sent back to the federal government."
The man stared at her and said, "I advise you to think it over carefully. You just went astray for a moment. The most you will get is a fine and a few days of confinement. If you dare to touch us, it will be considered intentional harm to the pioneers. According to the new federal law, you will be sentenced to death."
