Although the peaches were large and had a fragrant aroma, she had to try them to know for sure, but she guessed they were edible.
"Okay, then leave it here. Before we continue, let's all keep an eye out for any other large fruits."
"Don't worry, wife. If we see it, we'll definitely tell you. Let's go," Xiao Yubai said from behind.
"Okay, but your eyes are definitely not as good as mine."
"That's for sure, hurry up and keep up!" Xia Hua said from the front.
The group continued forward until they reached a relatively spacious area, where they decided to rest for the night. The rest of the area was covered in dense jungle, but here, for a few hundred meters, there were only tall trees nearby, with no other trees or grass.
Xia Hua took out two tents and taught Xiao Yubai and Cheng Yumo how to set them up. Then she went to start a fire. There had to be a fire source at night, otherwise it would be too dangerous without light.
We could have brought out the yacht, but there wasn't enough space here, and there were trees all around, so we could only set up tents.
An Shuyi sprayed pesticide nearby, especially around the tent, spraying more. After she finished, she took out a table and chairs and asked, "What do you want to eat tonight?"
"Don't take them out. Don't you have a clean suckling pig in your warehouse? Take one out and roast it. Also, take out the mutton and beef and roast them too," Xia Hua said from the side.
It's still so late, and there's nothing to do after dinner, so we might as well have a barbecue. She still has ginseng wine and deer blood wine in her warehouse, but she's already had enough to eat tonight, so there's no need to drink any more.
"Okay, then I'll roast some potatoes and sweet potatoes too!" Eating roasted meat must be greasy. Putting a few potatoes and sweet potatoes in the fire will cook them quickly. Not only will they cut through the grease, but they can also be eaten as a staple food.
"Set up the tent, take out the meat and let them skewer it. My fire will be ready to grill soon."
"good."
Once the fire stops smoking, place racks on both sides and roast the suckling pigs on them, while the lamb and beef skewers are roasted on the side.
They had barely turned the roast suckling pig over when they started eating roasted lamb skewers and occasionally taking a sip of wine.
Xiao Yubai and Cheng Yumo didn't drink too much. Besides having to keep watch at night, it was also because this place was dangerous and they couldn't let their guard down.
After finishing their meal and resting for a while, they took water from the warehouse, washed up, and then went into the tent to sleep together.
The other tent was reserved for the two of them; since only one person needed to keep watch, the other could sleep.
Cheng Yumo was in charge of the first half of the night, while Xiao Yubai was in charge of the second half.
In the dead of night, suddenly the roar of an animal came from afar. Cheng Yumo stood up, but could not see any animal around her.
The three people inside the tent came out and looked around warily. An Shuyi put the tent away and said, "Let's go up the tree."
Before she finished speaking, she was lifted into the air and then onto a branch, landing on a tree trunk that was large enough to lie on comfortably.
Xia Hua extinguished the fire with water, and then was carried down to another tree. The group didn't make a sound, but looked down to find the source of the sound.
Not long after, a large pack of wolves ran to the place where they had just rested and began sniffing around. An Shuyi and Xia Hua hurriedly sprayed medicine on them from the warehouse.
After spraying, it didn't dare to move again, but remained quietly on the branch, watching the area below warily.
They hadn't expected the wolves to be so big, at least three meters tall and six meters long. No matter how powerful they were, they couldn't kill a whole pack.
The wolves continued to sniff around, showing no intention of leaving. The group remained vigilant, and soon, one of the wolves followed the scent to the tree where they were.
But after a short while, it seemed to smell something it didn't like, and moved away, never to come back.
Several hours passed before the wolves left, but the group remained vigilant and kept their positions unchanged. Sure enough, the wolves reappeared a while later.
After finding nothing, they moved to a distance and sat down, but no one spoke; instead, they sat on the branches.
"Tell me, I'll hold you and take the blanket out to cover you up," Xiao Yubai whispered in her ear.
These wolves will definitely come back. Even if they don't, they can't go down. It's safer for them to stay in the tree.
An Shuyi nodded, took out the blanket, covered the two of them, leaned against him, and quickly fell asleep.
As the night passed, no more wolves came. Xiao Yubai continued to keep watch for the rest of the night. As soon as it was dawn, he began to watch for any animals that appeared around him.
There were two tigers, more than twice the size of the wolves from last night. Fortunately, the trees were tall, so even if the tigers were high up, they couldn't spot them.
Cheng Yumo also woke up, but he didn't make a sound. The two of them watched the tiger pass by under the tree and walk away into the distance.
An Shuyi and Xia Hua didn't wake up until it was completely light and the sun came out.
"Are there any more wolves coming?" An Shuyi asked.
Xiao Yubai shook his head, "No, but two tigers appeared this morning, twice the size of wolves. Fortunately, they didn't spot us."
If discovered, a great battle is inevitable. I never imagined this world would be so magical. He had also read about the secret realms in the cultivation world in novels, where one had to stay for a period of time before being able to leave.
He wondered if this was the same for them when they entered this world. He had seen all sorts of amazing things in his life.
An Shuyi and Xia Hua exchanged a glance. A tiger twice the size of a wolf—how big must it be? It's a pity they didn't see it.
"Should we continue forward?" Xia Hua asked.
She was now unsure whether to go forward. If it were a normal animal, she could protect Shushu, but now, with a six-meter-tall tiger, wouldn't the other animals be very large as well?
Even bullets hitting it might not cause the slightest damage to the tiger; unless bombs or cannons are used, it won't be killed.
“Let’s stay here for a day, Hua Hua. We’ll make some bombs later, so if we encounter any danger, we can throw them out. With the two of them here, they won’t blow us up,” An Shuyi said.
Although she still had bombs in her warehouse, she was worried that it wouldn't be enough. She also had materials in the warehouse, so she might as well make some in reserve. It wouldn't take much trouble, and it could even save her life in a critical moment.
Xia Hua nodded, "Okay, let's wash up and eat first, then we'll make them later, and make a lot." She also thought it would be better to make a lot of bombs and store them.
The other two had seen bombs before, but didn't know their power. However, judging from their appearance, they could guess that they were very powerful. Even if they didn't, they could still protect them.
If they can win, they fight; if they can't, they run. They have superhuman agility, so even tigers and lions can't catch them. And once they leave this small island, those animals can't even reach the sea.
