Chapter 122
…
After a good night's sleep, they bravely walked out the next day and saw the bodies of two strange beasts lying in the snow not far away. They seemed to be dead.
The bear beast had a massive ice blade piercing its body, while the wolf beast's neck was clearly ripped apart. So the result of last night's battle was—both sides suffered heavy losses...
The snow was cold, and Mu Jiao and A Ping took the knife and rope that A Ping had found in the tent and bravely approached the body of the strange beast, which was covered with ice and snow and frozen hard.
Food is in short supply now, and the meat of exotic beasts is rich in nutrients and can provide them with energy, so it can just fill their food gap.
It's freezing cold here, so as long as you move the strange beast to the edge of the safe area, you can take it whenever you want to eat it.
While the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits. They were lucky enough to play the role of "fisherman" today. But this strange beast was incredibly heavy! It took the two of them a tremendous amount of effort, spending most of the day, to finally drag it to the edge of the "safe zone."
Five days later
"Aping, look, Mengmeng, Mengmeng has grown bigger again!!" Mu Jiao called Aping over in surprise.
The cute bear curled up on the air mattress has been getting bigger and bigger these days. The bear, which was originally not much bigger than a cat, is now as big as two cats, which is twice as big.
But he still didn't wake up and couldn't eat anything.
"Really, Jiaojiao, it seems to have grown bigger than yesterday!!" Aping was outside clearing the snow on the top of the tent. He heard Mujiao's call and came back to take a look. Sure enough, Mengmeng looked a lot bigger.
"It seems that Mengmeng has been growing while sleeping these days. I just don't know when Mengmeng will wake up. She hasn't eaten anything, and I don't know if it will be okay..." Mu Jiao touched Mengmeng's fluffy hair and said worriedly.
"Don't worry, Jiaojiao. Seeing how comfortably it sleeps, it should be fine."
Since A Ping promised Mu Jiao in a daze on the first day not to call her "Master", Mu Jiao repeatedly asked him and used both soft and hard tactics over the next two days, and finally made A Ping call her by her name.
"Hmph, I'm not worried about this little guy. I'll let him eat whatever he wants! When he wakes up, I'll definitely punish him by not allowing him to eat for three days. Let's see if he dares to be greedy again! I'm really pissed off. When he wakes up, I'm going to settle accounts with this little bear!" Mu Jiao said angrily to A Ping. She wasn't worried about this "little glutton"! !
"Okay, when Mengmeng wakes up, you must punish her. Eating without permission is not good."
Listening to Mu Jiao's "little complaint", A Ping's eyes were filled with a smile, and he said something to comfort Mu Jiao. But in his heart, he was thinking that with Jiao Jiao being such a precious and adorable child, after it woke up, he would be reluctant to skip even one meal, let alone three days!
…
The two chatted, and no one noticed that Meng Meng's round little ear twitched slightly...
Over the past few days, they've finally settled into life here. Every morning, they'll clear the snow from the tent roof, go get some exotic animal meat at noon, and prepare it. In the evening, they'll set up a small table in the tent and cook a pot of warm animal meat soup to fill their bellies and warm their stomachs.
The meat of exotic animals is delicious and does not need any seasoning. Just a little salt is enough to make it tasty.
Aping's tent is fully equipped with daily necessities, and the salt is enough for them to use for half a year. The small table is a camping table that Aping picked up a long time ago. It is a bit old, but it does not affect its use.
In the middle of the table there is a flat furnace filled with a low-level energy stone the size of a fingernail. Don't underestimate this low-level energy stone the size of a fingernail. Its energy is enough to keep this small furnace running around the clock for thirty years.
What they ate today was bear meat. The meat had been thawed and cut into small pieces. The water in the small pan was melted from the snow outside. The cut meat was put into the pot with cold water. After the water boiled, skimmed off the foam, covered the pot, and continued to simmer for 20 minutes. When the meat was soft, added appropriate amount of salt, and simmered for a while. Then, the lid was opened, and the aroma of the meat instantly filled the entire tent.
A Ping and Mu Jiao were already waiting with a small bowl each. They had been doing this for the past few days. After turning off the fire, they would first drink a bowl of hot soup and then eat the meat. A delicious and satisfying meal would sweep away all the fatigue of the day.
But today, just as Mu Jiao was about to turn off the fire and drink the soup, something unexpected happened—Meng Meng Bear actually woke up...
"Mmmmm...Mmmmm..." Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao...
Meng Meng's much bigger "bear body" suddenly rushed into Mu Jiao's arms and asked for a hug. As a result, Mu Jiao didn't react and subconsciously hugged him. Wow! It's so heavy! I almost couldn't hold it!
But this is not the point, the point is, Mengmeng woke up!!!
"Mengmeng, you're awake! Woo, you little guy, you're finally awake! I was really scared during this period of time!" Although the weight was very heavy, Mu Jiao still hugged him tightly. The little guy had been in a coma for a long time, and they were framed and had been running around. Although Mengmeng seemed to be fine, how could Mu Jiao not be worried in her heart? Now that the little guy finally woke up, Mu Jiao was really excited and hugged Mengmeng and touched her all the time.
"Mmm, mmm..." Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao, it smells so good, I want to eat it...
After the intimate play, Meng Meng stared at the pot of soup with his big, cute eyes, and kept wrinkling his little nose.
"Do you want to eat?" Mu Jiao's tone became sinister.
"Mmm...Mmm..." Yeah, I want to eat, I want to eat...
Why did he feel so hungry when he woke up?! Holding his belly, the bear stared at the pot, not noticing the sinister tone of his "bear master"—Mu Jiao.
"Haha, no. This is the dinner for Aping and me, there's nothing for you to eat." Mu Jiao was determined to teach Meng Meng Bear a lesson he would never forget, and never let him dare to steal food again.
“Hmm!!” Why!
As if he couldn't believe his owner's words, he looked at Mu Jiao with disbelief in his big round eyes. Why didn't the owner give the bear food? Did the owner no longer love the bear?
"You still have the nerve to ask why! Do you know how long you slept?! A full fifteen days!" Mu Jiao said with a serious face.
"Mmmmm~" Meng Meng Bear: The bird slept for a long time~feeling guilty...
"Do you know how you sleep?"
"Oh...oh...oh..." I drank the soup and it smelled so good... I want to drink more~
When reminded by the owner, Mengmeng instantly recalled the pot of delicious soup before going to bed. It was really the most delicious soup in the bear's life, even more delicious than the delicious medicinal food ~ Slurp, I'm so hungry ~ I want to drink more.
"Haha, forget it! I won't make it for you anymore, you little brat! You drank it secretly and even ate up all the dregs!"
"You don't have a good attitude to admit your mistakes! As a punishment, you are not allowed to eat for three days."
