About two hours later, the two men and the dog arrived at a large lake.
This is also the destination of Xue Huan’s trip.
She came here to fish.
Instead of searching for prey in a dangerous forest, it is better to wait by the lake for the fish to bite.
Xue Huan chose a good spot for fishing, cleared out a large open space, and sprayed insect repellent around. She then took out a lounge chair and a low table from the space, placed snacks and drinks on the table, and waited for Master Pei to sit down.
Pei Ji was obviously very satisfied with her arrangement. He lay down comfortably, enjoying the lake breeze and eating snacks. He felt so relaxed.
Xue Huan sat on a small stool with a fishing rod in her hand.
The fishing rod was bought from the mall, and the fishing line is made of nano materials. Even if a seventh-level big fish comes, it cannot be easily broken.
The bait is specially made and has a strong attraction to fish.
Of course, the price was very attractive. Fortunately, with the food allowance Pei Ji had given her before, she was now a wealthy woman.
Manhattan's innate Husky habits still existed. After lying next to her for a while, he couldn't stay there and began to wag his tail frequently.
Xue Huan patted its head and said, "Go and have fun by yourself. Don't try to steal other people's crystal cores anymore."
Manhattan let out a howl and disappeared in a flash.
The bait bought from the mall was very effective. In less than five minutes, Xue Huan caught a big fish, which was three or four meters long and swung its tail very vigorously.
Xue Huan threw the big fish onto the shore, stepped on it, dug out the crystal core in the fish's head with an ox horn knife, and put the still jumping fish into the space.
At noon, Xue Huan took out two super-large hamburgers and a large fruit platter, and had a simple lunch with Pei Ji.
Pei Ji was a little unhappy about the hamburger, so Xue Huan could only coax him: "It's not convenient to eat something with a strong smell here. I'll make you a big meal when we get back."
There was nothing she could do. Who told her to covet her body? She had to serve him well. Besides, he paid such a high price for the food, so she couldn't let him be dissatisfied with it.
Pei Ji said "hmm" and then picked all the cherry tomatoes in the fruit plate.
Xue Huan didn't compete with him for it.
This person's diet originally consisted of blood, but now he can control his instincts and eat like a normal human being instead of treating her as a reserve food. She should be thankful.
It gets dark early in the forest, and it was already dark at two or three in the afternoon. Xue Huan prepared to pack up and find a safe place to spend the night.
At this moment, a deafening roar came from the opposite side of the lake. The ground shook and ripples appeared on the surface of the lake.
What's going on?
Xue Huan took out a telescope, and the scene on the opposite side was instantly brought into view. A giant bear ran over with a thud, stepped into the lake with one foot, and splashed waves several meters high.
The bear was as tall as a five-story building, and the lake water only reached its calves.
Xue Huan was shocked. This bear might be at level eight!
She put the things away without a word, "Run!"
Splash! Suddenly, a crocodile emerged from the lake with a bear cub in its mouth!
Then the crocodile turned into a human form and climbed onto the shore with the bear cub in its arms. Who else could it be but Song Mie, the cannon fodder?
When he saw Xue Huan and the other person, his eyes lit up with surprise, and without saying a word, he threw the bear cub towards Xue Huan.
Xue Huan: “!!!”
Song Mie this bastard!
With the speed and force he threw it at her, if she didn't catch the bear cub and let it fall to the ground, it would definitely be crushed to death! Even if it didn't die, it would be seriously injured!
But once she takes over, her body will be stained with its scent, and the mother bear that is chasing her will definitely mistake her for Song Mie's accomplice and regard her as an enemy!
Humph, Song Mie has a good plan, but it’s a pity that she won’t do as he wishes!
Xue Huan used her ingenuity to throw a ball-shaped object at the bear cub.
The spherical object drew a perfect parabola and met the bear cub in mid-air. Then, with a "snap" sound, a net opened up and the bear cub was caught in it.
During the fall, the net line expanded rapidly and turned into a network-shaped round sphere, trapping the bear cub inside and falling at an extremely slow speed.
Now, the bear cub is no longer in danger of death.
Seeing this, Song Mie exclaimed, "Wow!", rolled his eyes, and ran towards Xue Huan. He was obviously determined to rely on her so that she could help him share the firepower of the bear mother.
Xue Huan noticed it and cursed in her heart, Song Mie, this bastard, just wait for her!
Pei Ji followed her easily, his breath steady: "Why should we run?"
Xue Huan: Boss, of course you don't have to run, but I don't have the courage to face off against a mutated giant bear above level eight! They could smack me to death with just one slap!
The reason why the mutant giant bear chased her was because the bastard Song Mie stole someone else's cub. If she asked Pei Ji to deal with the giant bear, firstly, she would feel a little uncomfortable, and secondly, wouldn't this be fulfilling Song Mie's wish in disguise?
She would never do such a thing!
Huh? Where are they?
Song Mie followed Xue Huan and the other person with a grunt, but in the blink of an eye, the two people in front of him suddenly disappeared!
Seeing that the giant bear had caught up with them, Song Mie didn't bother to look for Xue Huan and the others. There happened to be a mud pit nearby, so he transformed himself into a crocodile and jumped into it, locking himself in it until he even stopped breathing.
On a big tree not far away, Xue Huan and Pei Ji were huddled together, both wearing a black cloak that covered them from head to toe.
This cloak keeps out odors.
The giant bear chased after them, and every step it took made the ground tremble. It held the bear cub trapped in the balloon net in one paw, and its nose kept twitching, sniffing the lingering scent in the air.
However, those humans seemed to have suddenly disappeared, and the smell suddenly stopped.
The giant bear was unwilling to let go of the thieves who dared to steal his children. He swung his big paws angrily at the trees. One after another, the thick trees fell down with screams, attracting countless birds, insects and snakes.
Just as the big tree where Xue Huan and the others were was about to be destroyed, the giant bear suddenly stopped, howled towards the sky, and left with its cubs.
Xue Huan still dared not move, her breathing was slow and long. After a long time, she confirmed that the giant bear had really left, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Huh, he's finally gone. That was so scary."
Xue Huan's legs were numb and weak, so she simply handed most of her weight to Pei Ji.
She was already very close to him, and now that the crisis was over, some of her little thoughts immediately became active.
She tentatively hugged his waist and looked up at him, "My legs are numb."
Pei Ji leaned against the tree trunk and did not refuse her behavior of taking advantage of him, allowing her to hug him.
Xue Huan felt secretly delighted. It seemed that he didn't object to her getting close to him.
Just as she was about to take the next step, Pei Ji pinched her earlobe and reminded her: "That person is about to run away."
