125 Wilderness Survival
◎Is it possible to live in this jungle?◎
Ye Zhizhi smoothed the messy hair of the big squirrel on his shoulder and looked up at the battle in front of him.
Silver, a ferocious beast, completely crushed these smaller creatures. With ease, as if playing, it easily separated the two groups of squirrels fighting fiercely, and the bandit squirrels on the other side fell in a large number.
They didn't expect those strange squirrels to be so frightened. They had just arrived, and as the first squirrel fell straight down, the other squirrels followed one after another and fell to the ground motionless.
When they arrived, the battle was already over, and there was no need for Ye Zhizhi to take action. The space under the tree was too small, so they didn't get too close and just watched from the side.
The big squirrel had also seen that the battle was about to end. Especially since the robber squirrels were now in a worse situation than them, they jumped on Ye Zhizhi's shoulder with joy.
Xiaohua curiously stretched out her tail and teased the squirrel on the ground.
The squirrels stiffened their little bodies and were fiddled with here and there, but they still didn't dare to open their eyes.
The other wave of squirrels that were photographed one by one were all still alive. Ye Zhizhi could feel their breathing, but seeing that his companions were fainted, he did not dare to face so many terrifying predators, so he also lay down one by one.
They had been roaming the jungle for so many years, defeating all the rats without any rivals, but they did not expect to be defeated by a group of unfamiliar squirrels who were easy to bully, and their career as bandits ended here.
How on earth did these squirrels find such formidable backup?
Surrounded by the powerful aura, the robber squirrels continued to play dead.
This was the first time that the canyon squirrels came to the jungle here. In the past, they always looked for food in the mountains near the canyon. This time, because they failed to rob other small animals and their food reserves were not enough, they saw the wolves walking so far away, so they bravely followed them deeper.
Unexpectedly, after they finally found a fruit tree, it was fought over. Fortunately, they successfully guarded the fruit tree and defeated the robbers.
“Squeak!!”
The squirrel tribe won the victory. Each one held their head high with pride and called out happily while standing on the tree.
Yin Yi jumped down from the tree and walked to Ye Zhizhi's side.
Ye Zhizhi touched Yin Yi. She had seen Yin Yi have many opinions about squirrels on weekdays, but she was still very reliable at critical moments and would take the initiative to help squirrels. She knew that her wolf brother was the best.
Yin sniffed the surrounding area and when he found no danger, he walked away and quickly disappeared behind the bushes.
The other wolves followed suit.
Ye Zhizhi was not in a hurry to leave. When she walked over, she saw that lying on the ground under the tree were not only the hostile squirrels, but also many canyon squirrels that were injured during the fight and were now lying on the ground unable to get up.
Ye Zhizhi gave it a quick check, then picked up the injured little squirrel and put it aside.
The big squirrel jumped to the ground, calling softly and sniffing the scent of its companions.
Ye Zhizhi didn't care about the other squirrels outside the tribe. He didn't expect that even small animals like squirrels would compete so fiercely for survival.
Even though the canyon squirrels couldn't win, none of them retreated. They all tried their best to defend their food.
Fortunately, no one died.
After the squirrels seemed to have confirmed that their companions were safe and sound, they returned to the trees with some energy left and continued to pick nuts and put them into their mouths.
They seemed to have forgotten the robber squirrel pretending to be dead on the ground, and instead of killing it, they became busy again.
After Ye Zhizhi gathered the injured squirrels together, he asked Xiaohua to watch by the side while he climbed up the tree to help the squirrels pick nuts.
The big bear was circling around, trying to find some honey.
Squirrels store fruit seeds in the cheek pouches in their mouths, bringing them back to their nests again and again, storing them little by little.
No matter how full their cheek pouches are, they cannot bring back much at once.
Ye Zhizhi took out a large piece of snakeskin from her snakeskin bag, ready to help the squirrels pack more. She took the snakeskin with her because she wanted to pack more wild fruits back. Unfortunately, she only packed one snakeskin package, and there was still an empty piece, so she lent it to the squirrels for the time being.
There are many nuts on the tree, but after the squirrels leave, the discovered fruit tree will soon be divided up by other small animals.
The group of robber squirrels in front were too greedy. They couldn't pick all the fruits in one wave. If they had waited until the squirrels had picked all the fruits and left before picking them, there would have been no conflict.
The squirrels did not object to Ye Zhizhi's behavior of filling his cheek pouches with nuts. When their cheek pouches could no longer hold any more nuts, they specially found the fullest nuts for Ye Zhizhi.
For Ye Zhizhi, nuts are just a change of taste and a way to supplement her nutrition, but she doesn’t particularly like them.
Perhaps it is because she is in the teething period and probably knows that she cannot eat anything too hard. In comparison, she prefers dried fruits and meat that are dried in a moderate hardness to help her teeth grind.
Xiaohua stretched out her snake body and tried hard to reach the tree.
The squirrels have overcome their instinctive fear and no longer run away. The brave ones are very friendly and pick a handful of particularly plump and beautiful fruits and hand them to Xiaohua with their paws.
The squirrels' big eyes are sparkling. They are good predators. They will help them drive away the robbers and help them win the battle!
Xiaohua's snake tongue moved in and out. After it caught the meaning of the squirrels' actions, it opened its bloody mouth curiously.
The squirrels threw the fruits in their hands into Xiaohua's mouth accurately. More squirrels saw this and hurriedly threw the fruits in their hands into Xiaohua's mouth.
Xiaohua simply swallowed a bunch of nuts raw.
"Hiss--" No meat tastes good.
The squirrels lying stiffly on the ground pretending to be dead quietly opened one eye and then quickly closed it.
They lay quietly for a while, and seeing that the remaining predators and other squirrels did not notice them, the largest squirrel quietly moved its small body and slowly moved out.
The other squirrels lying behind heard the movement made by their boss. They finally mustered up the courage to quietly open their eyes and found that the boss had moved to the edge, so they hurriedly followed suit.
When the squirrel boss saw the obvious movements of his younger brothers and the clear noises they made, he silently sped up, then got up and ran away.
When the squirrels saw that their boss had left, they became anxious and climbed out quickly. Before they reached the edge, they got on all fours and limped quickly to catch up.
Boss, wait for us!!
Ye Zhizhi and the squirrels all noticed the little movements of the squirrels. It is not easy for animals to survive. If it is not for survival, Ye Zhizhi will not take the initiative to attack or wantonly harm the animals in the mountains. He just pretended not to see it.
Squirrels are not ferocious predators. The result of their fights is usually that the other side retreats and leaves. They rarely fight to the point of life and death, so they will not stop the robber squirrels from leaving.
When the big squirrel saw the robber squirrels fleeing in panic, he stood on the branch and wiggled his fat butt proudly.
Who dares to steal squirrels? They have predators to help them!
Ye Zhizhi picked a full package in a short time. She tied two knots, carried the package, which was bigger than herself, on her shoulder, and jumped onto Xiaohua's snake head. When Xiaohua's head was lowered to the ground, she jumped to the ground neatly.
Squirrels with cheeks rounder than pufferfish, holding a plump hazelnut in their claws, jumped to the ground one after another and walked to the front of the six squirrels that were unable to move.
These squirrels were unlucky. When they fell from the tree, they landed on the hard rocks on the ground. They either broke their legs or suffered internal injuries and were unable to move for a while.
Ye Zhizhi took a look and was surprised that the squirrels hadn't recovered after such a long time. She had extensive experience treating external injuries, but she was still a novice when it came to internal injuries.
According to her experience with several internal injuries, lying down more will help her recover faster.
Ye Zhizhi saw that the squirrels seemed to want to carry the injured squirrel on their backs. She looked at their similar small bodies and thought, wouldn't it make the injury worse if they carried the squirrel on their backs while running?
She looked down at herself, seemingly overwhelmed.
Ye Zhizhi looked up at the sky. The sunlight shone through the dense branches and leaves, refracting golden rays with a slight tilt.
It's already afternoon.
"Ao!" Ye Zhizhi summoned the wolves back.
There are some minor injuries today, so we should go back early. We need to walk slowly on the road, as it will be almost dark when we get back to the canyon.
The wolves were all nearby, and when they heard Ye Zhizhi's cry, they quickly ran back.
Ye Zhizhi ran to Yin Xiaohui and howled a few times.
Yin Xiaohui lay down and turned to look at Ye Zhizhi.
Ye Zhizhi touched its head in appreciation, then picked up the injured squirrel and tiptoed to put it on Yin Xiaohui's back.
Those little squirrels are so small that the wolf's back is very wide for them, so the bumps will be smaller.
Xiaohua came closer, its tongue hissing as it caught the cub's movements, tilted its head, and then accurately rolled up the other squirrels that were not seriously injured and put them on its back.
The little flowers quickly rolled over one by one. After Ye Zhizhi carefully placed the injured little squirrel on Yin Xiaohui's back, she turned her head and saw the other squirrels standing in a row on the little flowers' back.
"Hiss~" Xiaohua's snake head rubbed towards Ye Zhizhi, hissing to seek credit, it could also help the cub.
Ye Zhizhi hugs and rubs Xiaohua, she is the best!
Yin Yi walked over and stood casually between Ye Zhizhi and Xiaohua, then lowered his head and let out a low growl from his throat.
Ye Zhizhi picked up the big package and sat on Yin Yi's back.
“Ouch!”
go home!
Along the way, there is another fresh jungle scene.
The small animals at the bottom of the jungle were actually sitting on the back of a predator with a terrifying aura.
There was a long string of limbs tightly packed together on the python's body.
The squirrels were nervous at first, but soon they started to enjoy the fun and started cooing.
Halfway back, they encountered several prey and caught them all in one fell swoop. This trip was a big harvest.
After entering the canyon, Ye Zhizhi put the injured squirrels into a cave and observed their injuries.
She looked down at the squirrel's claws. Some of them were broken. She had never studied medicine, so she didn't know if they were broken. She could only touch them and judge by feeling.
There was medicine powder for internal injuries, so each mouse was given some. As for the claws that were inconvenient to move, they simply found some small branches and tied them up with vines, and then let them rest in the cave.
After this incident, the squirrels were no longer afraid of these predators. They swaggered in and out of the caves and followed them out openly.
Ye Zhizhi thought that the competition in the jungle was getting more and more dangerous, so it would be safer to keep these little squirrels who had no ability to protect themselves under her watch. So she simply acted together with the squirrels.
Meat was already enough, and what Ye Zhizhi lacked was other edible plants. For a moment, the situation was extremely harmonious.
With such sufficient preparation, the jungle creatures welcomed the first day of this year's rainy season.
The thunder and lightning that never change year after year seem to destroy the heaven and earth.
Ye Zhizhi stood at the entrance of the cave. It was clearly daytime, but it was so dark that he couldn't see his hand in front of him.
The only light was the lightning that seemed to tear the sky apart.
The strong wind that bent the trees did not blow towards the cave entrance. Ye Zhizhi stood at the entrance of the cave and only felt thick water vapor.
The squirrels in the tree holes had already hidden in the deepest part, trembling as they listened to the roar of nature.
The mountains and forests were silent, as if all things were extinguished.
The whole world was filled with the sounds of thunder and lightning, howling winds and pouring rain.
She wanted to go out to see if there was any potential danger nearby, but she couldn't go out.
Ye Zhizhi looked up at the cliff in the rain illuminated by lightning, standing silently like a huge shadow.
She was worried. There shouldn't be any landslides or mudslides, right?
Ye Zhizhi stood at the entrance of the cave for a while. Yin Yi, who was inside, didn't wait for her to come back for a long time, so he walked out, stood behind Ye Zhizhi, and bent down to lick her head which was wet by the thick steam.
Yin Yi pushed Ye Zhizhi, indicating that it was time for her to go back to her nest and rest.
Ye Zhizhi shook his head and continued to look out of the dark cave.
This is the most satisfactory cave she has ever found, but it doesn't want any uncontrollable dangerous factors that cannot be changed by human power.
Upon seeing this, Yin Yi lay down and held Ye Zhizhi against his abdomen to block out the moisture for her.
Ye Zhizhi leaned back and leaned on Yin Yi affectionately.
"Oh?" Do you think you can live in this jungle?
Yin Yi didn't say anything, but lowered his head and licked Ye Zhizhi's head.
