After the panda mother and cub left, Lin Qian and the others returned to the other side of the river; they were going to stay there.
Lin Qian bravely and skillfully went to dig a cave. If you're so capable, why live in a cave when you can live in the open?
None of the tigers had any objections; they didn't have any requirements about where they lived, but they were all used to Lin Qian's antics.
The tigress's eyes flickered, and she called out to the tree.
The chipmunk swooped down from the tree; yes, the little guy can glide by spreading his limbs.
"Squeak~" King Tiger, the animal skins are all here.
The little guy piled up all the animal hides he had saved in front of him. Some of these hides were saved by Lin Qian before, but most of them were newly produced on the snow mountain.
The fur of spirit beasts doesn't need to be dried. Just lick it clean and wash it, and it will be preserved very well and will be very soft!
In short, every part of a spirit beast is a treasure!
"Ouch." Put it away.
The stepmother picked out the ordinary animal hides, which it planned to use to line its nest. It remembered and liked the nest that Lin Qian had made for it before.
The spirit beast's hide was softer, but the stepmother didn't use it. She thought that since the bones could be used to feed the chipmunks, the hide might be used to feed some useful "toys" in the future.
All I can say is that my stepmother's thought process is truly unique...
Although they had different ideas, the stepmother's plans coincided with Lin Qian's.
Lin Qian didn't intend to touch those spirit beast skins. He had seen humans on the snow mountain, which meant that humans were still surviving despite such a huge change in the world.
Putting everything else aside, human research and technology are quite advanced. These spirit beast hides could be processed by humans in the future and might even become equipment!
This isn't just wild speculation; the armor of courage and his little sword were clearly crafted, so there must have been a method for making them.
Even if humans can't figure it out, they might find a way in the future, since the mysterious function of the jade pendant hasn't been solved yet.
Lin Qian had taken precautions. The spiritual energy in the bones and hides of spirit beasts wouldn't dissipate as quickly as that in the meat, but it would still dissipate, albeit very slowly.
However, this dissipation will be slower if placed in the chipmunk's enclosure.
Although the space inside the chipmunk's enclosure isn't completely "static," as the chipmunk has grown stronger, it has gradually developed some ability to preserve food, making the food inside much fresher than what's outside.

Therefore, chipmunks are now not only warehouses, but also refrigerators.
The tigers' attention to this little guy will continue to increase as the chipmunk's spatial abilities improve, so the little guy's position is almost unshakeable.
When the chipmunk saw the two tiger cubs digging a burrow, it moved its little head and immediately chose a pine tree next to the burrow entrance as its "home".
The chipmunk circled the large pine tree and finally chose a spot near the canopy.
This is because it enjoys the feeling of gliding, so it chose the highest and most suitable location to dig its hole.
Swinging its fluffy tail, the chipmunk waved its little paws energetically, but the exceptionally large pine tree was also very hard.
The trunk and bark were several times harder than the previous pine trees. If the chipmunk's claws hadn't been tempered by spiritual energy and become extremely sharp, it might not have been able to dig them out.
The effects of the spiritual energy revival are not only manifested in animals, but also in plants. Although there are many mutated plants, ordinary plants are also different from before.
The trees are thicker, their bark and trunks are stronger than before, and even their roots and branches are more robust and larger.
Grasses and shrubs are also more lush than before, with stronger vitality and faster growth rate.
Every plant has changed under the nourishment of spiritual energy. Previously, the heavy snow had covered these changes from view, but now that the snow is gone, these changes have become apparent.
Looking at the lush vegetation and the towering tree canopy, Lin Qian was filled with anticipation for the future.
As long as the plants in the forest grow well, there will be no shortage of food!
Even after becoming a spirit beast, food is still the most important thing right now!
This time, the cave was dug in less than half a day. The two tiger cubs were much faster and stronger than before, and they were still very quick even without the help of the adult cats.
They dug two burrows as before: one for Lin Qian and Yongqi, and one for the stepmother tigress and her sister tigress. As for the father tigress, well, he slept outside.
There was no way to dig; Tiger Dad's size was twice that of a tiger, and he couldn't dig anymore.
Lin Qiancai would never admit that he was tired of digging... It's better not to dig this cave at all!
The tiger dad said he didn't mind, and it didn't really like living in the cave either, except when it rained or snowed it would want to hide there.
But after seeing his two cubs' handiwork, the tiger father angrily enlarged the tiger mother and her sister's den himself.
Fortunately, the plants are no longer what they used to be. Whether it's trees or flowers, they all have huge root systems that hold the soil very firmly. Otherwise, with Tiger Dad's forceful expansion of the area to twice its original size, it would have collapsed today or tomorrow!
The tiger mother also preferred to sleep outdoors and didn't care much about the den, letting her younger sister carry animal skins and spread them out there.
Watching the fierce tiger's furry paws carefully smoothing out the animal hides, the mother tiger shook her body and darted away.
Oh! It can't do what its sister does!
The tiger mother scratched the tree with her paws, which relieved her discomfort.
After the stepmother laid out the animal hide, the tiger lay down on it, satisfied!
Aww, that feels so good!
