That day, Chen Ruoruo was taking a nap in the cave. Suddenly, she heard Erlangzi and several other people shouting outside the cave. Their voices were terrified, anxious, and filled with whimpering of fear.
She knew that Erlangzi and the others must have encountered mutant animals or plants that were stronger than them.
He immediately extended his consciousness to check the situation, and then stood up and walked quickly out of the cave. They had never had such a reaction and cry before, so they must have encountered something they couldn't deal with.
Before Chen Ruoruo walked out of the cave, her consciousness had already checked the situation outside. She saw that the surrounding mountains were all burning with flames. From time to time, the mountain breeze blew sparks and terrifying heat towards the mountain where they were.
As soon as Chen Ruoruo arrived at the entrance of the cave, she felt the scorching heat and her skin immediately turned red. She looked up and saw the entire sky was burned red by the mountain fire.
At this time, Erlangzi and the Wolf King were leading a few others, roaring loudly at the burning mountaintops on all sides, as if they could drive away the burning flames around them.
Animals are naturally afraid of fire. They almost all tuck their tails between their legs and do not take a single step back despite being frightened.
"Erlangzi, Wolf King, come back..." Chen Ruoruo looked at the few who were rushing in front, and she didn't have the heart to blame them. She quickly called them back.
"Woo..." Erlangzi heard Chen Ruoruo's words and saw her standing at the entrance of the cave. He quickly ran back and blocked Chen Ruoruo's way, preventing her from leaving the cave.
"Wolf King, bring those back quickly..." Chen Ruoruo squatted down and hugged Erlangzi tightly. The high temperature from its body made her almost let go subconsciously.
But she was afraid that if she let go, it would rush out again due to its stupidity, so she didn't dare to loosen her grip at all.
The temperature outside was so high, and coupled with the volcanoes surrounding her, she had been standing at the mountain pass for a while, but she was already feeling hot and stuffy in her chest, dizzy and unable to think.
"Come back..." Chen Ruoruo quickly shouted again to the few people not far away. As she spoke, sparks carried by the wind hit her face from time to time, making her grimace in pain.
"Woo..." After hearing Chen Ruoruo's words, the Wolf King looked at the flames that were getting closer to him, and finally ran back quickly with a few of them.
After returning to the cave entrance, a few of them squatted down, breathing heavily with their mouths open. There were many marks on their fur from being burned by sparks. She could even clearly feel the heat from the fire that had not yet dissipated from their bodies.
Chen Ruoruo looked at the situation outside the cave and had no time to say anything. She quickly drove Erlangzi and a few others behind her and quickly put the things at the entrance of the cave into the space.
Then he took out the vault door from the space, blocked the hole, laid several thick layers of insulation pads, and put a few ice cubes on it.
Then he took a few of them back into the cave, blocked the passage with the vault door, put down a few more layers of insulation pads, and finally put ice cubes in the sink in the cave.
After finishing all the previous tasks, Chen Ruoruo reluctantly breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the few people sitting next to her, staring at her without blinking, she sighed, and then took out cotton swabs, iodine and burn medicine from the space.
"Erlangzi, come here..." Chen Ruoruo looked at Erlangzi with unfriendly eyes and waved at it.
"Woo..." Erlangzi seemed to have sensed Chen Ruoruo's suppressed anger. He whimpered twice and took a few steps back.
"Come here..." Seeing the fool's look, Chen Ruoruo's anger soared again and she shouted at it.
"..." After hearing this, Erlangzi walked obediently to Chen Ruoruo with his ears drooping and his head lowered. After sitting in front of her, he lowered his head and did not dare to look Chen Ruoruo in the eye.
"I'm asking you, are you stupid? If I say you're stupid, you really are stupid. Can you withstand that thing? Do you think you're indestructible? Why don't you jump into the sea of fire? I'll give you the ability..." Chen Ruoruo looked at the fool in front of her who looked like he was about to die, grabbed his two ears, and then slapped his mouth a few times, beating him mercilessly and scolding him.
I don't know what was going on in its pig brain. It cursed while applying medicine to the parts of its body that were burned by sparks.
After treating its wound, I saw that it still looked aggrieved, with its eyes glancing over from time to time without looking you in the eye.
Chen Ruoruo remembered what it had done outside, and became angry again, kicking it on the butt.
"Woo..." Erlangzi seemed to be really aggrieved by Chen Ruoruo's kick. He whimpered softly and ran to lie aside.
"Come here..." Chen Ruoruo ignored Erlangzi's movements and waved to the Wolf King.
The latter came over very obediently, squatted in front of her, and looked at her quietly with a pair of red eyes.
"It's stupid, are you stupid too? Don't you know to run?" Chen Ruoruo looked at the one in front of her. The burns on its body were much more serious than those of the fool.
Even though many parts of it were charred and bleeding, it didn't make a sound and just waited obediently by the side. Even when it was called back, it was the last one to return to the cave entrance.
Chen Ruoruo couldn't help but stretch out her index finger and point it between its eyebrows. After all, they had been with her for such a long time, and she still had feelings for them. But how could it be like a fool and not understand the situation?
Wolves are the smartest animals, not to mention the wolf king who has become intelligent after his alienation. The reason why it does not retreat may be because of Erlangzi, or perhaps because he is right behind it, so it rushes forward fearlessly.
"Awoo..." The wolf king seemed to be responding to Chen Ruoruo's words, his red eyes looking at her firmly.
"Okay, go and have a rest..." After treating the wolf king's wound, Chen Ruoruo touched its head.
The fool standing by heard the huge difference in Chen Ruoruo's attitude before and after, and started to yell and complain.
As if protesting against her unfair treatment, Chen Ruoruo gave her a glare, and the latter immediately dared not say a word.
Afterwards, Chen Ruoruo helped the other few, treating their wounds one by one. Seeing them lying quietly not far away to rest, she relaxed a little. Then she probed her consciousness out again to observe the fire outside.
After a moment, Chen Ruoruo regained consciousness. The weather was hot at the moment, and the current national situation meant that there was no time to wait for official firefighting. She could only wait for the fire on the mountain to go out on its own.
In fact, when Chen Ruoruo first chose the site, she knew that she would face such a situation. After all, there had been continuous wildfires after high temperatures in her previous life.
So she was not surprised. Fortunately, the cave was still ventilated, and she would not suffocate here even if she blocked the entrance. However, she found that the air in the cave was hot and the temperature was slowly rising.
