"Thanos?"
Looking at the cub that was engrossed in digging a hole with its back to her, Xu Ling called out softly.
The cub in the shallow pit paused in its digging, its still silvery-white ears twitched backward, and then it turned its head to look over.
Xu Ling looked at the cub that had turned around, its face covered in dirty mud, and took several steps back before finally stopping.
Help! What is this thing?!
She couldn't help but scream inwardly, "Can't we just throw this dirty little thing away?!"
When Thanos saw that it was Xu Ling, he tilted his head and said, "Awoo?"
It seems to be expressing a question.
Xu Ling abruptly stopped her legs from retreating again, and after a moment of hesitation, asked, "Thanos, what are you doing?"
"Awoo!"
Unfortunately, Xu Ling didn't understand the sound of a wolf howling, and her face was full of confusion.
"What, what do you mean?"
Thanos also realized what was happening, thought for a moment, and then gestured for Xu Ling to look.
Then, Thanos turned his head and started digging rapidly with his claws, sending dirt flying. After a few digs, Thanos looked at Xu Ling again and roared, "Awooo!" Now you should understand, right?
Clearly, this demonstration was excellent, and Xu Ling fully understood what it meant.
Looking down at the loose soil at her feet, Xu Ling unconsciously took another step back, then pretended not to have seen Thanos's actions and introduced him to the little fairy flying beside her.
"Thanos, this is Ruth. Ruth has been with me for a long time. You two should get along well from now on!"
Upon hearing Xu Ling mention herself, the little fairy immediately flew to Thanos's side to show her friendliness and stretched out her little hand.
"Hello, Thanos."
"Awoo?"
Thanos tilted his head and looked at the little man in front of him. He had a pair of thin, pointed ears and thin wings like a dragonfly. He felt that he had seen him somewhere before.
Thanos turned around to face Ruth, then plopped down on the edge of the hole he had just dug.
Xu Ling's eyes twitched, and she thought to herself, "I can't keep this cub, it's too dirty!"
However, Thanos himself didn't care at all. He looked at Ruth and let out another "Awoo?"
Xu Ling still didn't understand, but to her surprise, Ruth nodded and replied, "Yes, Ruth is a little fairy."
Xu Ling: ? ? ?
Excuse me, what's the difference between the "woof" just now and the "woof" now?
When Thanos heard Ruth admit it, he let out another series of howls.
Ruth listened intently, then replied, "Ruth has been here since birth."
"Awooooo?"
Ruth: "This is a barren land, don't you know that?"
"Awoo?!"
"Ruth knows, of course, that Master brought you here, but you must obey Master's orders here!"
"Awoo~"
Upon hearing Thanos's voice, Ruth nodded in satisfaction and then flew back to Xu Ling's side.
"That's more like it."
Xu Ling swallowed hard. Of all the things Thanos and Ruth had just said, she only understood the little fairy's words; she didn't understand a single thing else.
Curious, she asked the little fairy, "Ruth, what were you talking about just now?"
Lu answered Xu Ling's question without hesitation.
"He asked Ruth if she was a little fairy, and Ruth said yes. Then Ruth also told him that this was a barren land and that he should listen to his master here. By the way, he just promised that he would listen to his master."
Unexpectedly, just a few words led to such a long explanation. Xu Ling nodded in understanding.
"Ruth, can you understand what Thanos is saying?"
"Um."
"Then how did you understand it?"
Xu Ling was very curious about this, since in her ears, Thanos's roars were basically the same as "Awoo" or "Awoo Awoo".
This question stumped the little fairy; her delicate eyebrows furrowed, and she couldn't explain why she understood it.
As if it were an innate instinct, Ruth could understand what the cub was saying and what it meant as soon as it opened its mouth to howl.
"Ruth doesn't know how she understood it," Ruth frankly admitted, "It's just that when I heard Thanos shout, I felt like I understood what he meant."
"I'm sorry, Master, I don't know why."
The little fairy felt guilty for not being able to give Xu Ling the right answer.
Xu Ling didn't take it seriously. She was just curious and asked casually. It wasn't a big deal if she didn't know.
And the fact that Ruth could understand the cubs' cries was a pleasant surprise.
"Then you can translate for me when I'm talking to Thanos!"
Xu Ling looked at Ruth with a look of unexpected joy.
Ruth was taken aback; she hadn't expected Xu Ling to think that way.
Ruth's furrowed brows relaxed, and perhaps joy is contagious; a wide smile spread across her face, and her eyes curved into crescent moons.
"Um!"
At this moment, Thanos, who had been ignored, came over again and started howling at Xu Ling.
Xu Ling didn't quite understand, so she turned to look at the little fairy.
Ruth immediately helped Xu Ling translate.
"Thanos said he was hungry."
Thanos nodded. Yes, that's exactly what I mean.
I see.
Just as Xu Ling realized what was happening, she was about to take out the bread left over from yesterday when her eyes involuntarily fell on the cub sitting in front of her.
At this moment, the cub obediently squatted in front of Xu Ling, and his gaze followed Xu Ling's movements.
Xu Ling could clearly see that the cubs became excited when she made a move.
Ignoring everything else, just look at the tail behind the cub; it's already wagging wildly.
Originally, this tail was the only part of the cub that still retained its silvery-white color, but now, after he swung it back and forth like this, it has become almost the same color as the soil on the ground.
However, what Xu Ling found most unbearable was that the way the tail was used stirred up a lot of mud.
Under the sunlight, Xu Ling could see the soil suspended in the air with the naked eye.
This is so dirty!
Xu Ling couldn't take it anymore, especially the cub. She could no longer tell that it was a cub of the Moonlight Silver Wolf!
Xu Ling withdrew her hand from the bread box. Thanos, seeing her movement, stopped his tail, which was about to take off, in mid-air.
What does this mean? Does it mean they're not going to feed him?
Just as Thanos couldn't help but howl twice to urge Xu Ling on, he saw Xu Ling make a strange gesture with her right hand.
Thanos was even more confused. What was going on?
Fortunately, this time it didn't leave him puzzled for too long.
Suddenly, Thanos felt something wet on his face. He wiped his cheek with his paw and found that there was water. Where did the water come from?
Thanos tilted his head to look at Xu Ling, wondering if it was her strange gesture that caused the trouble.
Thanos was right; it was Xu Ling who used the Rain Transformation Technique, which was why the light rain was falling.
Xu Ling used the Rain Transformation Technique to give the cubs a bath, but unfortunately, the drizzle was so light that Thanos couldn't even feel that it was raining; he just thought it was water vapor coming from somewhere.
