The next day, the four of them went out early in the morning and drove out in a truck.

Xia Lunong curled up in the passenger seat, his head getting sleepy little by little, because the car was too bumpy and it would hit his head from time to time. Kong Zhi

turned his head and looked at him and said, "Sleep in the beast form for a while."

Xia Lunong glanced at his brother secretly, and when he saw that his brother didn't look at him, he tilted his eyes to Kong Zhi and whispered, "Okay."

Xia Lunong changed on the spot and soon turned into a smooth-skinned big forest cat with a silver-black back and a white belly. He crawled out from the pile of clothes, jumped into Kong Zhi's arms, rubbed him, and lay down comfortably in his arms.

Kong Zhi touched his back, took his clothes and put them in order.

The truck was still shaking and moving forward.

Their car was not going very fast, and it was shaking as it drove forward, making him drowsy, and he soon fell asleep curled up on Kong Zhi's legs.

"We're here."

After an unknown amount of time, his brother woke him up with a word, and Xia Lunong suddenly opened his eyes and looked outside.

He was still in beast form, so it was not convenient to see outside. He had to stand on Kong Zhi's platform with his two front legs and stretch his body to see outside.

Outside was the scene of the river valley, all green, without any trace of sheep.

"Meow?" Xia Mao Mao looked at his brother, not knowing what "we're here" meant.

His brother touched his head and said, "Let's park the car here and use the beast form to pass by later, so that the sheep won't get angry and hit the car."

Each of their trucks has been modified and is very valuable. If they are hit by sheep, it will be a loss.

Summer Cat nodded in sudden realization, and the expression on the cat's face was very vivid, and several people around him couldn't help but touch his head.

"Meow!" Summer Cat stretched out his claws to pull their hands off, and meowed in protest.

Xia Huoqu sniffed the air with his nose twitching. "The smell of sheep in the valley is very strong. The sheep should still be here."

Yan Xinian said, "Then we will go down in beast form later. It's not far from Pingtian Mountain. We want to drive the sheep to Pingtian Mountain. It shouldn't be too difficult."

He looked around and added, "Then Huoqu and I will be on the left and right to drive the sheep there. Kongzhi, you will be in the air to form a pressure formation. If you see any sheep falling behind, you will swoop down, scare them, and drive them back to the flock. But if there is any sheep that is really too late, don't worry too much."

Kongzhi nodded, "I shouldn't have any problems here. I will take Xiaonong to fly to the sky later. If there are sheep that are really falling behind, I will attack."

"That's settled then. We'll each get ready and then start working. If the sheep are too fierce, we'll avoid fighting and not initiate a head-on conflict with the sheep."

Yan Xinian repeated the battle plan and then reminded Xia Lunong, "Xiaonong, be especially careful. You are the smallest and the most impatient. If there is any danger later, we just need to run to the side. There's no need to fight with them. If you get hurt, it will be a loss. Do you hear me?"

Xia Maomao didn't agree, but still meowed and nodded in agreement.

Xia Huoqu touched the cat's head and pulled Xia Maomao's ears against his head, "Let's prepare like this for now. We'll run over to both sides. Kong Zhi, you fly to the sky first, and we'll slowly move over later. Don't be anxious, be patient."

Several people changed back to their beast forms.

Xia Maomao also maintained his beast form and jumped onto Kong Golden Eagle's back.

Kong Golden Eagle's back was very wide, just enough for him to lie on it.

He was much safer in beast form than in human form, at least the golden eagle's back was big enough, and he didn't have to worry about being thrown off.

The four of them divided into three groups and set off separately.

Kong Golden Eagle spread its wings and flew up, looking down from the sky, and soon found the group of beige sheep.

The flock of sheep seemed to have completely forgotten what happened yesterday and were grazing leisurely.

The golden eagle cried out in the air, alerting the giant wolves and tigers below to the location of the sheep.

They surrounded them from three directions, and the sheep soon realized something was wrong and began to stir.

Led by the head sheep, the sheep began to run.

Summer Cat lay on the back of the golden eagle, arched her back, and looked at the scene below with great dissatisfaction.

They had attacked from the air yesterday, and the golden eagle was also a bird of prey, more than enough to deal with a sheep. However, the first reaction of the sheep to see them was to attack, and now they were attacked again, and their first reaction was to run away.

If this is not discrimination against them, what is it?

The giant wolves and tigers below ran.

"Roar--" the giant tiger roared, and the roar echoed throughout the mountains and forests.

The sheep became even more panicked and began to flee in all directions desperately.

They almost ran into patches of grass and trees in a panic, leaving tufts of wool in the grass and trees.

One sheep got caught by the grass by the horns and couldn't get out at all. It stood in the grass and bleated.

The other sheep ignored it and ran forward.

Summer Cat slowly found the leader of the flock. When the leader ran in a certain direction, the other sheep would follow.

"Meow!" Summer Cat reminded on the back of the golden eagle that they didn't need to chase all the sheep, they just needed to pay attention to the movements of the leader to achieve the destination of driving the flock to the valley.

The golden eagle had already discovered it, and the giant wolf and tiger below also discovered it.

Several people worked together to drive the sheep into the valley.

The scale of the flock was too large, and sheep kept falling behind.

They ignored the sheep that had fallen behind and continued to drive them into the valley according to the original plan.

The process was not smooth, as many sheep tried to break through when they were driven away.

With their unremitting efforts, when the sun rose to the middle of the sky, they finally drove the sheep into the destination valley.

After driving the sheep into the valley, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Summer Cat was on the back of Kong Jinying, motioning them to go down together.

The sheep had been driven deep into the valley, and it looked like they would not run towards the mountain pass for the time being.

Kong Jinying landed on the ground and joined the giant tiger and the giant wolf.

The giant tiger was not good at long-distance running. After running for a whole morning, he was so tired that he almost stuck out his tongue and gasped for breath. Even after turning back into human form, he kept panting.

After Kong Jindiao changed back to human form, he took off the backpack on his back.

He took out clothes from the backpack and distributed them.

Everyone quickly put on their clothes.

Yan Xinian bent down and supported his knees, saying, "We finally got these sheep here

. If we were a little slower, I guess I couldn't stand it and would have to surrender." Xia Huoqu handed him the water in the backpack and looked around, "Drink some water and rest for a while. Let's go to the mountain to see what kind of trees we can dig and plant at the entrance of the valley to seal the entrance of the valley."

Xia Lunong said, "Any tree will do, just choose those tall and straight trees. I didn't move much, so I have enough energy. Brother, let me go with you. I'll pick carefully and see if I can pick any fruit trees."

Kong Zhi said, "I'm also okay. I've preserved my energy better. I'll go with you. Brother Xinian will rest here."

"What you said, you all have very good physical strength, and I am the only one who is lagging behind?" Yan Xinian panted and said, "I will go with you, at most I will walk slower."

Xia Lunong said, "Then if we all leave, are you afraid that the sheep will break through and run away?"

Yan Xinian waved his hand, "Don't worry, we will choose between these two sides and come back soon. We should be able to see what is happening down the mountain from the mountain."

Xia Huo said, "Why don't we split into two groups, you two go up the mountain to take a look, and we two rest here and keep watch. If there is any movement, we will shout to each other and notify each other. Try to ensure safety and put other things aside for the time being."

Xia Lunong said, "I think this method is feasible, so let's use it temporarily. Brother, then we will go over first?"

"Go ahead, be careful."

Xia Lunong and Kong Zhi went up the mountain.

They had never been to this mountain before, and they were not familiar with the scenery there. They walked around the mountain for a long time, but did not find any particularly suitable trees.

Xia Lunong said, "If I had known earlier, I should have brought a bag of tree seeds with me, and planted them directly, and then helped them grow."

"That would consume too much energy, and it would be too hard. Let's look for it again, and we will find the tree you want."

"I think it's very difficult." Xia Lunong had just finished speaking when she suddenly saw a strange tree in front of her.

The tree had very high branches, and the leaves had fallen off. The branches were swollen, and it looked very strange.

The important thing was that there was actually a nest of birds pecking at something under the tree. As they approached, a flock of birds flew up, and there were actually dozens of them.

Among the flocks of birds, there were some that were normally considered natural enemies, which showed how attractive the fruit was to the birds.

Xia Lunong's eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "That must be an edible fruit! Let's go over and see what it is?"

Kong Zhi said, "I didn't recognize it, it shouldn't be an ordinary fruit or mountain product."

"That's normal, we are not familiar with these mountain products, it's normal that we didn't recognize it."

Xia Lunong pulled him over and picked up a branch that was pecked by the birds under the tree.

He then discovered that the top of the branch was swollen and smelled of a strong sweet fragrance.

"This is... a jujube?" Xia Lunong handed it to Kong Zhi, "But it's much thicker than a jujube, almost like a branch."

"You'll know after you taste it." Kong Zhi picked up a piece of fruit that had not been pecked by birds, put it in his mouth and tasted it.

Xia Lunong looked at his expression expectantly.

After tasting it for a while, he said, "It is indeed very sweet, much sweeter than I imagined. It is the normal sweet fragrance of food. There should be no problem. You try it too."

Xia Lunong tasted it and her eyes lit up. "It is indeed a date! I have tasted it before! This taste should be correct. I didn't expect that there is such a big date hidden in the mountains! We must come and pick some after we plant the trees. We will have snacks for the time being. We can also make some date cakes."

Kong Zhi glanced at the tree in front of him, "Should we move this tree down the mountain to plant it?"

"Let's not do it. This tree is too big. I don't think we can move it. If we move it, we will lose our lives." Xia Lunong said happily, "Let's go and look at other trees. If we can't find any, we won't be picky."

Kong Zhi said, "That's fine. At worst, we can pull up the trees we planted and replace them with the trees we want."

"Yes, then let's go first."

Xia Lunong made a mark on the spot and pulled Kong Zhi forward. Soon, they found two chestnut trees.

The chestnuts are now quite ripe. They fall to the ground and are quite prickly.

Xia Lunong picked up a chestnut on the ground, stepped on the thorny shell of the chestnut with her foot, and stuffed a chestnut into her mouth.

The chestnut tastes very sweet and tastes very good.

"These chestnuts are delicious. We'll pick some and bring them back home. I guess we can have a meal of chestnut lamb tonight."

Kong Zhi looked around and said, "These should be the chestnuts planted by people before the catastrophe. There are other dead fruit trees there."

Xia Lunong looked and found that it was true. There were not only other fruit trees nearby, but even traces of wasteland could be seen.

They walked a little further and saw more fruit trees. They found a chestnut forest.

Now the chestnuts are full of branches, which looks very pleasing.

However, there are also many dead chestnut trees in the chestnut forest. It seems that no one takes care of them. After all, the vitality of these artificially planted plants is not as strong as that of wild plants.

Xia Lunong was originally full of joy, but after seeing this scene of decay, he felt a little uncomfortable.

He sighed, "Forget it, let's pick some chestnuts and take them back. I know what trees to plant, and planting some chestnut trees would be nice."

"Okay." Kong Zhi took his hand, "Let's see if there are any saplings nearby."

There really were some nearby.

After the fallen chestnuts were not eaten by animals, they sprouted and took root in the spring of the following year under the nourishment of rain, and grew into small trees.

These saplings grew in the forest and could not receive much sunlight. They did not grow well, and they were crooked and looked quite thin.

They searched for a while in the weeds and trees before they found these saplings.

The two dug up 23 saplings, each of them took half, tied them up and carried them on their shoulders, and walked slowly down the mountain.

Kong Zhi's backpack also contained the dates and chestnuts he had harvested earlier, so it was relatively heavy, but he was relatively strong, so he had no difficulty carrying it.

When the two of them got down to the foot of the mountain, Yan Xinian came over to greet them from afar, "I thought you were lost, and was about to go up the mountain to look for you. What took you so long? What good things did you find?"

"Chestnuts and dates!" Xia Lunong put down the sapling on his shoulder, took a deep breath, and said, "They are all in the backpack. Brother, Brother Xinian, you two should try them. Our newly picked dates and chestnuts taste great. We will go up the mountain to pick some more and bring them back to the base later."

Yan Xinian opened the backpack and took a look, with a surprised expression on his face, "Wow, good stuff! I looked for chestnuts several times before and couldn't find them. I didn't expect you to see them by accident today!" ! Where did you find it? I searched back and forth several times."

Xia Lunong wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "It's right over there."

He pointed diagonally in a direction, "We saw it as soon as we went over there. We found two trees first, and then we found a forest with about six or seven trees. Now they are all covered by weeds and trees. We can't find it accurately. We will go over there and look carefully later, maybe we can still find it."

Yan Xinian shook his head, "To be honest, we searched back and forth in that area for several days. I have looked for it several times but couldn't find it. I feel like this chestnut is specially reserved for you by God, and it is simply reserved for the right person."

Xia Lunong's forehead was sweating, and she looked at him, "Brother Xinian, you are exaggerating too much and think too highly of me."

Yan Xinian said, "To be honest, don't you think your luck is really good? If I want to find something, it will definitely not be wrong to take you with me."

Xia Huoqu interrupted them lightly, "Stop bragging about your business, and come here quickly Work, finish early and go back early, there are still sheep scattered outside, see if we can load them back to the base together."

Yan Xinian smiled and took a hoe, "They just carried the trees back, they are all tired, chat with them and relax."

Xia Huoqu was merciless, "Bear with it, we will relax together later."

Planting trees is relatively simple, they only need to dig the pit, then plant the saplings, and then go to the nearby mountain stream to fetch water and water the trees to root them.

After the hard work, the rest is Xia Lunong's work.

Xia Lunong has not used his superpowers today, and the superpowers in his body are very sufficient. After using them all, he used them on all the newly planted trees.

His superpowers are now stronger than before, and the trees will soon grow new branches after using the superpowers.

Xia Lunong did not use any of her powers. "Let's give them some time to grow. When we come back tomorrow, they should be grown up and can seal off this valley."

Xia Huo said, "Let's leave someone here to keep watch today and we'll talk about it when we come back tomorrow. We need to build a fence between these trees. You guys just went to cut down the trees. Now it's your turn to rest. We'll go build the fence."

The two groups of people switched.

Xia Lunong had used up all her powers. She was tired and hungry now. She grabbed a handful of dates and chestnuts and put them in her mouth. She ate them with a crunch. She barely ate half full.

After eating, he felt a little uncomfortable because his stomach was full of hard stuff. He drank a bellyful of water and simply turned back into a cat, lying on Kong Zhi's legs.

Kong Zhi rubbed his belly slowly and wrapped him up with his coat.

Xia Maomao soon fell asleep in the autumn breeze. He slept very comfortably and had no idea what was happening around him.

He slept until his brother and his former brother came back.

The three of them knocked down the fence together.

Now that the entrance to the valley has been sealed, the sheep should not be able to escape in a short time.

Xia Huo said, "Next we will tame these sheep. Let's observe and see if they can stay in the valley well."

Xia Lunong woke up and turned back into human form, "Don't we need to leave someone here to stand guard today? Are you afraid that they will run away?"

"No need. If they run away, we can just catch them back." Xia Huoqu put his hands on his waist and looked around. "They shouldn't be able to run away. The fence we built is so high."

Xia Huoqu said, "Let these sheep get used to it here first. When we come over tomorrow, we will bring them some food, such as sugar and salt, or beans. If there is food here, they will gradually make this place their home."

Xia Lunong agreed . His brother said, "Let's go back first. We are all so tired today."

Yan Xinian said, "You guys take a rest here. We will go up the mountain to pick some chestnuts and dates and then go over to catch the sheep that are alone."

Xia Lunong had no objection at all. He said, "Then we will drive the truck over to pick you up."

The four of them worked together and quickly got it done.

The attack power of the flock is very strong, but if it is dispersed to each sheep, the attack power is just so-so.

The sheep that were alone were entangled by grass and trees. Three of them could not get away. Even if the other two got away, they did not run very far and were just caught by them.

They found another flock of sheep while looking for sheep.

The other flock of sheep was not as big as the one they caught, but it was not to be underestimated. They were probably competitors of the one they caught earlier.

Now that the sheep had been caught, the other flock of sheep tried to come over to the grass to graze.

Xia Huoqu drove the car.

Yan Xinian said, "We'll notify the property management committee after we get back to the base and have them catch these sheep."

"Remember to remind them of the danger of these sheep."

"It's okay. Didn't we take the sheep back now? Just let them practice with the sheep we caught."

After they returned to the base, they told the people of the property management committee about it.

Several young people from the property management committee were very surprised to hear about this and ran to their house to see the sheep they caught.

"Captain Yan, are these sheep really that ferocious? Are they more ferocious than you?"

"These sheep are so big, but one can only jump three or four meters high. That's too exaggerated."

"Captain Yan, can we take this sheep outside? Let's try to hunt it and test our hands first."

Yan Xinian said, "Of course, but let me make it clear that these sheep are really ferocious. Be careful when you catch them. If you get injured, go to Doctor Ou for treatment in time."

"I know. Then let's take these sheep to the small square to play."

Xia Lunong was so tired that she almost lay on the sofa like a dead dog. Looking at their energetic appearance, she envied them, "I envy them for not having seen the cruelty of fate yet. When they go to catch sheep tomorrow, they will know how tiring it is to catch such a group of sheep."

Yan Xinian said, "Young people should always exercise more. Only after exercise can they improve their strength."

Xia Huo said, "Don't just let them go. You should also go over and watch. If anything happens, take action in time."

"Why should I go for such a small matter? I'll let others take care of it. Don't worry, except for those young people, everyone knows what's going on." Yan Xinian said, "I haven't eaten chestnuts for a long time. I'll send the chestnuts to the kitchen and we'll eat chestnuts tonight."

Xia Lunong said, "I want to eat fish today."

"We'll arrange fish for you, too." Yan Xinian looked at him and smiled, "Come to think of it, you really have the habits of a cat now. Does the beast form have such a big impact on your personality?"

Xia Huoqu said, "He likes to eat fish anyway, so it doesn't matter. Kong Zhi, what do you like to eat? Let's each order a dish we like to celebrate."

Before Kong Zhi could answer, Xia Lunong raised her hand and said, "He likes to eat braised pork! The braised pork that's fat but not greasy!"

Kong Zhi nodded.

Xia Huoqu looked at his brother, hinting, "You know about this."

Xia Lunong coughed lightly and said nothing.
