Chapter 38 Chapter 38 Wendy, the adventurous...
"Why are you here?"
Li Xingyan was surprised and delighted. He hugged Baobao's trembling body and brushed off the snowflakes on its head. "You have been hiding in my bag this whole time?"
"You are so brave! You are a rainforest monkey. You followed me here secretly and you are not afraid of freezing to death on the road..." He Junzhuo was amazed.
It’s a pity to waste “that hot food”, he really thought there was something delicious in the bag.
so……
Li Xingyan thought around the problem: Ti Ti had already discovered Bao Bao's whereabouts, no wonder she specifically told him to bring an extra warm blanket this morning.
Well, he was happy because he thought Titi was afraid that he would be cold.
It was difficult to light a fire in the snow cave, so we could only eat a few bites of compressed dry food. But as we gathered together and talked and laughed, we didn't find it difficult to swallow.
Baobao buried his head in Li Xingyan's shoulder and glanced at Yunti beside him.
She didn't seem to react much to her return, as if she was almost forgetting it.
With a grunt, it shifted its body, facing its butt towards Yunti, and got angry alone.
"Bao, didn't you say yesterday that you missed your mother so much that you cried every day? Why are you so quiet today?" Xiao Hei hissed with cold.
The temperature here is really too low. Seriously, if it pops up, it will probably hibernate on the spot.
"I don't want to pay any attention to her! She doesn't want me, let alone love me! She was so cruel to send Bobo away, forcing Bobo to chase you day and night for so long, and now she won't even look at me..."
Baobao became angrier and angrier as he spoke, his hairy chest heaving violently like sobs.
It wrapped itself tightly in the blanket Li Xingyan had wrapped it in, angrily snarling, "Baobao, I don't have a mother as bad as her! One day she's ignoring me, the next day I'll make her feel out of my league! How blissful it is to just forget each other and become a mess..."
I've only been out there for a few days, where did this ancient monkey come from?
Xiao Hei squinted his eyes and yawned, "Well, then, now I am my mother's only legitimate eldest snake."
"Why? I am the one! Why did Mommy only send me away and not you..."
"Didn't I explain to you yesterday that I'm a mountain snake? Mom said that if I were to be released into the rainforest before I grow up, I'd be eaten like a little spicy snack. Besides, I was hatched by Dad anyway."
Baobao doesn’t care, Baobao is really sad.
But the adults are very busy and don’t have time to take the cubs’ sadness seriously.
It thought that the trauma of childhood was not just a shower, but a lifetime of dampness.
It's feeling it now.
"Huh? Baobao is so wet." Li Xingyan gathered its fur with a blanket. "No wonder it barked so loudly just now."
See, it says it feels wet.
"The snowflakes have melted and are sticking to your fur, making it wet. Be careful not to catch a cold," Ming Jiaojiao reminded.
Oh, it turns out it was just wet from the snow.
Baobao fell silent and glanced at Yunti secretly again.
I thought, if she took the initiative to talk to me, we would reconcile.
As I thought about this, my stomach started to growl.
It hasn't eaten for several days.
In order to find his mother, Baobao broke through the layers of encirclement of monkeys, overcame many difficulties, climbed through the woods and crossed the river, and finally successfully found the location before the remaining breath of the monkeys dissipated.
Fresh berries are even harder to find in the snowy mountains. It's likely it's starving to death here.
At this time, Yun Ti moved.
She turned sideways, took out two sealed plastic boxes from the bottom of her backpack, and handed one to Li Xingyan.
That box contains insects, tree frogs, etc. prepared for Xiao Hei. He doesn't have a big appetite, and if the temperature is too low and he goes into hibernation, he will eat even less, so he is easy to feed.
Another box...
Yun Ti shook it, picked up one and sandwiched it between two pieces of compressed dry food, and asked the others, "Do you want to eat it?"
It's its favorite berry! It has the earthy smell of the rainforest.
Baobao almost fainted from smelling it.
Everyone laughed and shook their heads.
Banlie glanced at Baobao and said casually, "My sister picked these in the woods at three or four in the evening. I stole one and got scolded..."
Damn monkey, you are so lucky.
Baobao's eyes lit up.
Tentatively, he reached toward the box of berries and snuck one in.
Yun Ti didn't even glance at it, as if she didn't see it.
Take another one.
Take another one.
Take another one.
Until the stolen plastic box was getting closer and closer to him.
Baobao screamed "Wow!" and kicked Li Xingyan in the face. Then, using the force of his feet, he jumped into Yunti's arms. "Mommy! Mommy! Mommy!"
It rubbed its wet head against Yunti's chin and lay obediently on her shoulder, its round black eyes full of admiration. "Baobao loves Mommy the most in the whole world!"
Li Xingyan sighed, picked up the thermal blanket that had fallen on the ground, and wiped the water stains off his face.
"Good boy, good boy, you really are just using me as a stepping stone, right?"
＊
The wind tore through the snow.
A series of plum blossom-shaped footprints meandered into the distance through the thick powder snow.
There, a wooden house stood proudly.
After checking the simple map several times, Ye Xuan let out a long sigh, "If nothing goes wrong, this should be the gathering point..."
Ming Jiaojiao's tears flowed down, and Su Jian patted her back while panting.
He Junzhuo and Cui Da also started cursing: "This damn production team finally did some human work and didn't set the meeting point at the foot of the mountain!"
At this time, two full days had passed since we set foot in the snowy area.
In the vast snow-capped mountains where nothing can be seen except white, even the assembly point signal on the bracelet is like a ghost wall, sometimes strong, sometimes weak, and changing frequently.
Heavy snow fell for two whole days, and several drones were crushed.
The ice surface, which was already difficult to walk on, was covered with thick powder snow that had turned into thin ice. Every time you stepped on it, you would sink into a pit and it would stick to the sole of your shoe like a suction cup.
The journey became more difficult.
The group was starving and cold, and they managed to get here by force.
If we had walked a few more hours, someone would have died.
"Hurry, Titti..." Ming Jiaojiao suddenly stood up.
Two figures suddenly flew past at high speed.
Li Xingyan carried Yun Ti, who had been unconscious for nearly a day, on his back, while Ban Lie held the backpack containing Bao Bao and Xiao Hei, and the two of them staggered straight towards the wooden house.
Feeling dizzy, Li Xingyan shook his head fiercely and kicked the wooden door open.
The warm air hit my face, and the snowflakes on my head instantly turned into water droplets, flowing down my brow bones.
He almost fell to his knees, his knees hitting the ground with a dull sound.
But he seemed to have blocked out the pain. He hurriedly put Yun Ti on the bed, took off her coat, trousers and shoes covered with ice, and then wrapped her tightly with a quilt.
After doing all this, Li Xingyan's hands, which had been shaking constantly, gradually calmed down.
After thinking about it, he sat down at the end of the bed again and carefully tucked Yun Ti's feet into his clothes.
The soles of his feet, as hard as ice and iron, pressed directly against his waist and abdomen.
"class……"
Just opened my mouth.
There was a loud bang beside me.
The train fell straight to the ground.
Baobao jumped out of the flying backpack, ran to the bed chirping, and covered Yunti's exposed forehead with his soft and warm belly.
"Fuck! That's the good thing about being young, you can just fall asleep!"
He Junzhuo, who had quickly caught up, was shocked when he saw this: "Isn't this location... a little too unselective?"
Ming Jiaojiao frowned, squatted down, and raised her hand to cover Banlie's forehead.
It was so hot that I could hardly touch it.
"He Gou! Do you have any sense at all?" Ming Jiaojiao yelled, "Help him up! He has a fever!"
The two people who have always been in the best physical condition both fell ill.
The whole team was shrouded in gloom.
After Yunti finished digging the ice cave last night, she didn't even eat and crawled into her sleeping bag alone. The others thought she was too tired and didn't bother her.
Li Xingyan was the first to discover the abnormality.
She just lay there quietly, with almost no heat coming out of her nose or mouth. Her face was pale, and her forehead was not hot, but as cold as ice.
Fortunately, after checking, Su Jian found that he was just suffering from hypothermia, and other physical indicators were normal.
As for Banlue, no one knew how long he had had a fever.
If he hadn't suddenly fallen down just now, he wouldn't have revealed any clues at all.
Each one is more tolerant than the other.
＊
Wendy......Wendy......
A gentle and soothing female voice echoed in my ears.
Yun Ti narrowed her eyes, and her blurry vision slowly came into focus.
The blue sky, the dense canopy of acacia trees, and in the distance the towering baobab trees.
Back to the Serengeti again?!
Yun Ti jumped up, but fell into a warm embrace the next second.
The other person held her armpits and lifted her up easily like a child.
"Let go!" Yun Ti shouted angrily.
But what came out was a chirping sound.
Yun Ti was stunned.
"Mom, she's so cute!"
A beautiful, delicate face came close to her eyes, and she looked left and right as if she had seen some new treasure. She wanted to reach out and touch it, but she didn't dare to be too presumptuous. "Wendy? Is that the name Mom and Uncle Cyril gave it?"
"It means a girl who dares to take risks. How about that? Not bad, right?"
Yun Ti soon found herself being handed over to the little boy's arms.
"It sounds nice! And the hair above its eyes is white too."
The one with white eyebrows is another meaning of Wendy.
Raising her hand slightly and looking at the furry little pad with black spots on a yellow background in front of her, Yun Ti realized that she had not only returned to the Serengeti, but had even regressed to her cub stage.
Can't tell whether I'm happy or angry.
Yun Ti lay on the little boy's shoulder and felt that his smell was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had smelled it.
The white and smooth neck was within reach.
After grinding her unformed little fangs, Yun Ti suddenly leaned forward and took a bite out of anger.
The little boy was so scared that he burst into tears and cried, "Mom! The leopard has sucked my blood! Am I going to die soon..."
"No, Leopard is just joking with you."
The woman walked over slowly, touched his head first, then squatted down and looked at Yun Ti with a faint smile.
It was Li Ran.
Yun Ti didn't have time to be surprised.
The scene suddenly changed, and behind him was the deafening roar of a group of lions.
His legs and feet seemed to be out of control and he ran forward with all his might.
On the endless prairie, dark clouds gathered, the rain poured down, and the acacia trees rustled their crowns, as if clapping their hands and shouting at her to run faster.
But my body has reached its limit and my steps are becoming heavier and heavier.
After the rain soaked through the thick fur, the whole body looked like it had just crawled out of an ice cellar.
No, it's not supposed to be this cold in the Serengeti.
This thought just flashed through my mind.
Suddenly, there was lightning and thunder, and the rain curtain was torn apart by a pair of hands.
"Can you take a picture? If not, get out!"
The hands slapped me hard, and after several seconds, a burning pain crept up my cheeks like psoriasis, swelling them to the height of a mountain.
"W-What are you looking at?"
The other party's originally arrogant expression trembled slightly, and he quickly took a few steps back, "What are you doing? Are you trying to challenge me?!"
Before being pushed to the bottom of the frosty lake again, Yun Ti shook her wrists, shook her neck, and lightly rubbed the ground with her toes.
She said, "Fuck you!"
Then he leaped into the air and kicked the man hard in the chest.
"Ouch!"
With a wail, Li Xingyan fell sprawled out on the bed.
