Although she had only known Wenxiang for a day, she genuinely liked this female.
Not only is she good-looking, but she also likes her personality. However, judging from Tu'er's words, the only new face added to the Sirius tribe is Wenxiang!
Thinking about this, she felt a little uncomfortable. She had finally found a friend she got along with, but now she was about to lose him. She felt somewhat disappointed.
However, compared to these personal emotions, everyone's safety is the most important thing, especially since people have already died.
They don't know who will be the next to die, so they can't take this lightly.
"Could it be... the scent!"
"Smell the fragrance!"
Several people said the name in unison, with Luo Bai reacting the most strongly.
The first person he thought of was Wen Xiang: "Hmph, I've disliked her for a long time. She's so beautiful, and she says she likes females. It must be her!"
Ying Yao felt uncomfortable just thinking about how this guy had been clinging to You Ran all day. Now that he finally had something on her, he jumped up from his chair and said, "I'm going to grab her!"
"etc."
Mu Youran and Huang Yu immediately spoke up to stop it, saying that this matter was only speculation at the moment.
What if the merman was just hiding in the shadows and didn't show himself? Wouldn't that be wronging someone?
Moreover, merfolk are masters of water; what if he had simply been hiding in the water and hadn't come out?
The situation is uncertain, so they can't condemn someone outright.
Mu Youran looked at the group before speaking.
"Why don't I test her? If she really is a mermaid, then her getting so close to us must have a purpose."
However, the three immediately denied this statement.
"No, you're pregnant now. What if you bump into something and fall?" Ying Yao was the first to disagree. Not to mention that You Ran's body was not in a good position, even if she wasn't pregnant, he didn't want her to take any risks.
Luo Bai frowned deeply: "That's right. What if she uses illusion magic to kill you? No, no, that's too dangerous."
Mu Youran chuckled lightly: "You forgot, I have the crown feather given to me by Huang Yu, illusions can't harm me."
However, Huang Yu disagreed: "This thing can block attacks, but what if something goes wrong?"
"What if you get startled by her and fall in your panic?"
"How about we let Eagle Cry keep an eye on her?"
Yingxiao nodded. He didn't want his sister-in-law to take any risks either. His older brother was already so grown up, and now that he finally had a baby, he couldn't let anything happen to him.
“That’s right, sister-in-law. Yinglong and I will take turns patrolling, and we’ll definitely find out something about her.”
Mu Youran: "But she's been clinging to me ever since she arrived. I'm afraid it's not true that if I don't test her, she won't come looking for me."
That's something the three of them overlooked.
Given the current situation, if Wenxiang is indeed a merman, then she's definitely after You Ran, or one of them. They can't simply hide from her.
After all, there's no way you can guard against thieves for a thousand days if you're a thief for a thousand days.
"You Ran, are you up yet!"
Suddenly, a soft, feminine voice came from outside. Mu Youran had heard this voice all day yesterday, and she knew who it was as soon as she heard it.
He shrugged and looked at the group: "See?"
Huang Yu's eyes flickered slightly: "Alright, take good care of yourself. Ying Xiao, keep an eye on You Ran's situation at all times, and notify us immediately if there are any changes."
Eagle Cry nodded solemnly: "Don't worry!"
Mu Youran then forced a smile onto her face and walked to the cave entrance, where she saw Wen Xiang standing there in a fiery red animal skin dress, giving her a sweet smile.
"Wenxiang, why are you up so early?"
When Wen'e saw her come out of the cave, he happily went up to her and gave her a big hug.
The soft texture and fragrant scent made him love it so much that he dreamed about it all night.
He dreamt that You Ran confessed her feelings to him, saying she liked him. He was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. Just as he was about to say yes, he woke up.
I rushed over to check on her.
"You Ran, I like you so much. I wish I were male."
Upon hearing this, Mu Youran's heart skipped a beat, but she didn't react much.
Instead, he hugged her from behind and patted her on the back.
"I like you too. Have you eaten anything this morning? Let's go to the river to pick some wild berries."
"OK!"
Wen'e excitedly agreed, because You Ran's words truly touched his heart.
This was You Ran's answer in that dream.
As soon as the two left, Huang Yu and the others came out of the cave. In order not to alert the enemy, Luo Bai continued hunting with Tu Er and the others.
Ying Yao had originally intended to have Ying Xiao keep watch, but he wasn't comfortable with it, especially at this time.
It simply took off and soared into the sky, disappearing behind the clouds.
He didn't trust anyone else to protect You Ran, something so important.
Huang Yu also concealed her figure and quietly landed behind her.
Mu Youran led him to a wild plum tree on a hillside by the river, picked two plums, and handed them to her.
"Give."
Wen'e took the fruit and popped it into his mouth. It was slightly sour, but mostly sweet.
"tasty."
He then picked two yellow plums for her: "You can have some too."
"Thanks."
Mu Youran took a small bite. The taste was not bad. She had discovered this tree a few days ago, but it wasn't edible back then.
Unexpectedly, only a few days have passed, and it's ready to eat now.
"Let's pick some more to take back and share with the little ones."
In the tribe, there are still many little ones who stay at home and wait for their meat meal every night.
It's good that we can eat some fruit now.
Wen'e had no objections; he was quite happy as long as he followed You Ran around.
"I'll climb the tree to pick them, and you can collect them from below!"
Before You Ran could say anything, she nimbly climbed up like a monkey in no time.
They specifically picked the yellowish fruits.
Mu Youran squatted down and slowly picked up the meat and put it into her bag. There were still some jerky left inside, which she would give to the little ones later.
There are grassy areas all around, so if the plums fall to the ground, they won't get damaged and will remain clean.
"ah!"
Suddenly, a pain shot through my leg.
Mu Youran looked down and saw a long, brightly colored snake slither past her feet.
However, two dark, bloody holes were left on his legs, and two streaks of blood flowed down instantly.
