Cai Zhongqi looked at her and guessed that she really didn't want to wear it and wasn't just making a perfunctory refusal, so he gave up trying to persuade her. "Then just tell me whenever you want to wear it. I'm still pretty good at making leaf skirts."
"...Okay, I understand."
After Cai Zhongqi left, Mo Shuwan finally breathed a sigh of relief. She turned her head and looked at the passengers walking around in leaf skirts and leaf clothes not far away. She suddenly felt incredibly grateful that the leaves in this world were big enough!
Otherwise, you might end up with something that burns your eyes.
After so many days, no one in the team has hatched a baby dinosaur. They've tried everything, but nothing has worked. But there are still five days left, and everyone is still taking good care of these uniquely patterned mutated Crimson Flame Beast dinosaur eggs.
Mo Shuwan also went to check on her dinosaur eggs. They were exactly the same as they were ten days ago. Helplessly, she reached out and tapped the eggshells. "How can I hatch you?"
Of course, the dinosaur eggs couldn't respond to her. Mo Shuwan stared at them for a while, then, as usual, scooped them out one by one and took them to the river to wash them clean. She then soaked them in the river water. This time, she tried to put the eggs into her storage space as usual. Of the five eggs that couldn't be put in before, only two couldn't be put in now.
Because more and more dinosaur plants come to drink water or try to find food by smelling blood every day, it is obviously unsafe to leave the dinosaur eggs here alone. Everyone basically carries the eggs with them. Mo Shuwan has five eggs, but she can only carry two on her person at most each day. Other passengers can help carry them, but Mo Shuwan is worried that it will affect their mobility, so she does not ask them for help.
When you go out to find side quests, you'll find three eggs hidden in the river or soil every day.
"Phew, now there are only two left that can't be put in. At least I don't have to worry about you getting eaten anymore."
Mo Shuwan chuckled and tapped the eggshell, preparing to take out the other eggs from her storage space, when she suddenly felt a slight tremor in the ground. Her expression changed slightly, and she abruptly bent over, pressing her ear to the ground to listen carefully. Her feeling hadn't been wrong; the ground was indeed vibrating.
"Holy crap!!! The ground is shaking! Is another major upheaval about to occur in this world?!"
"...You, you're talking nonsense."
Gulong—
Huff... huff...
The passengers held the eggs with various expressions.
The ground tremors grew stronger and stronger. The passengers, who had just been thinking it might be temporary, were now on the verge of tears. "God is going to kill us! We were almost back home, and now this happens?!"
"Stop yelling! Quickly find a tree to hug! This time, everyone must not get separated!"
Because of the previous ground tilt, the passengers, who hadn't yet recovered from the fear of that incident, subconsciously thought that this was another world-changing event. At Cai Zhongqi's reminder, they hurriedly and frantically found something to hold onto, keeping a close distance between each person, for fear of getting separated.
Cai Zhongqi squeezed the egg between himself and the tree trunk. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that Mo Shuwan, Wen Zuo, Liu Dongcheng, and even Yang Zhou hadn't found anything to hold onto. He was immediately alarmed. "Captain, what are you doing? Hurry up and find something to secure it! You'll be in danger if the ground tilts again!"
Yang Zhou, whose mood was already slightly heavy, twitched his lips and said speechlessly, "The last time the ground tilted, it happened after a period of darkness, and there was no ground shaking at the time. If you listen carefully again, you can hear the roars of dinosaurs."
The panicked passengers managed to calm down after Yang Zhou's reminder. They actually heard the dinosaur's roar. They were stunned for a while before they realized what was happening. They quickly let go of the tree and ran back to Mo Shuwan and the others with the eggs in their arms.
"It's not that the ground is tilting... it's like the dinosaur mass we encountered when we first arrived in this world?"
Mo Shuwan was currently observing the situation through the scope while holding her gun. Although the dinosaurs were still far away, Lie Xing's attack range was also very far. Needless to say, the scope could see a wide area. Even though it was blocked by the dense trees, she could still clearly see some of the dinosaurs' bodies.
“Hmm, the reason they gathered should be similar to last time.” Mo Shuwan handed Lie Xing to Wen Zuo. Seeing that the passengers all looked anxious, probably worried that something might happen at this crucial moment when they were about to return, she said, “It’s okay, let’s follow them and see.”
Hearing Mo Shuwan say that everything was alright, the passengers breathed a sigh of relief. No one questioned her decision. Over the past few days, all the passengers had come to accept Mo Shuwan and Wen Zuo's decision.
Of course, Mo Shuwan did not rush to follow the dinosaurs with the passengers. Moreover, the dinosaurs were moving in a direction that was slightly off from here, so there was no need to worry that they would reach them and pose a threat.
"Pack your things, we won't be coming back. This time, we'll head straight back to the bus. Remember to pack plenty of water."
After instructing the passengers, Mo Shuwan took out all the empty bottles from her storage space, filled them with water, and washed the meat inside. Then, carrying two eggs in a plastic bag, she walked towards the direction the dinosaurs were heading. She guessed that what the dinosaurs were chasing this time was probably similar to the Qingyang Fruit, and perhaps one of the materials needed to change their physique.
Are we about to fight?
"It should be... but you're wrong. It's not that we're going to fight, it's that the captain and the others are going to fight. We... at most, we'll just follow behind the captain and the others and pick up the scraps."
"Brother, you're right, but don't expose people's hardships."
Since there wasn't much to pack, the passengers finished tidying up in less than five minutes. Most of the passengers asked Mo Shuwan to help them put away the eggs for the time being.
After putting all the eggs brought by the passengers into the storage space, Mo Shuwan suddenly had a flash of inspiration. She grabbed a passenger next to her and said, "Go and find me an earthworm."
"earthworm?"
"Yes, it has to be alive."
Although he found Mo Shuwan's request a bit strange, the passenger who had been conscripted obediently went to find an earthworm. When he was about to hand it to Mo Shuwan, Wen Zuo intercepted him halfway and wrapped it in a leaf before handing it to her.
Mo Shuwan was trying to test her idea and didn't notice the earthworm wriggling in her palm through the leaves. She tried it and found that the resilient earthworm was still wriggling in the leaves, with half of its body already exposed.
Mo Shuwan stared at the earthworm with half of its body lying outside the leaves, pursing her lips. She tried again, but still couldn't put it into the storage space. To outsiders, she seemed to be in a daze ever since she got the earthworm. Just when everyone thought she might be scared by the earthworm, Mo Shuwan threw it away.
