Chapter 31 After the rain, the sky is sunny
Chirp, chirp, chirp.
A few birds flew in from a distance and landed nearby. They were covered with blue-purple feathers, and their necks and tails were shining with fine light!
It jumped around in front of the kitten as if on purpose.
He Jing exclaimed: "It's so beautiful! I've never seen such a beautiful bird. What kind of bird is it?"
"Purple Thrush," the kitten's appearance was so deceptive that even birds weren't afraid of her. "She likes to hang out in flower fields and by the stream. Want some?"
"...No, no, its feathers are so beautiful." The Purple Thrush seemed to be sure that she was not a threat, and it jumped onto her head and squatted, pecking at the flower by her ear.
Then it flapped its wings and jumped away. The kitten pounced on it with its claws retracted, and they played chase with each other for a while.
He Jing felt a little strange. She wasn't hungry but wanted to eat meat. She went back to Gu Zheng and asked, "Is there anything to eat nearby? I want to eat meat."
"There's a wood to the north with grouse, sheep, deer, and possibly wild boar."
The purple whistling thrush looked at the white tiger beside the kitten and approached tentatively. Good, no threat.
He Jing looked at the bird approaching and raised his hand to touch it. "Wow! It feels so good!"
"With you?"
"No, it's so cold in the Arctic, it shouldn't work."
"Well, shall we go?"
"Let's go!" He Jing felt like he could eat a cow alive now!
Walking into the cedar forest, the fragrance of flowers disappears and is replaced by a refreshing plant scent.
If the flower fields are nature’s perfume, then the scent of the woods is more like the fragrance of the soul itself.
Giggling.
Rustle.
Squeak, squeak, squeak.
From time to time, sounds could be heard from the woods. He Jing pricked up his ears to distinguish them carefully. "Was that the sound of grouse just now?"
"No, it's a razor-feathered quail. It's small, has feathers on its head, and is very lively. You'll probably encounter one."
As soon as Gu Zheng finished speaking, several birds with feathers standing on their heads and blue-purple necks and abdomens appeared in front of him, jumping and skipping.
They seem to be able to accurately find the kind-hearted people in the crowd.
Gu Zheng knew without asking that this was not on the kitten's menu.
Sure enough, He Jing played for a while, touched them one by one, and then left.
The deeper we went into the woods, the more signs of animals we saw.
The animal nature makes He Jing slow down his steps.
A loud flapping of wings broke the silence!
I'll go.
A pheasant as big as she burst from the branches of the long-fruited hemlock.
A white shadow flashed in his peripheral vision, and Gu Zheng flew out. The explosive force of his huge hind legs made him instantly rise into the air.
He bit the grouse's neck accurately, then flipped over and landed gracefully on the ground.
There was a loud noise all around, and a group of people were blown out.
The grouse died without even struggling.
"Wow..." He Jing was shocked. Was Gu Zheng so handsome when hunting before?
Gu Zheng didn't stop, dropped the dead chicken in his mouth, and continued to grab the rest.
A pheasant seemed to be frightened and fell two or three meters away, kicking its legs and gasping for breath.
He Jing was surprised. Gu Zheng stepped on it without hesitation and said, "You are pretending."
Interesting, the kitten exclaimed.
In the end, Gu Zheng caught four. "The trees here are too dense. We can't make a fire."
He Jing expressed his understanding, "You eat first, you haven't eaten for a long time. I'm not really hungry, I just crave meat."
Gu Zheng ate two of them directly and continued walking north with the remaining two.
Further north is the Qingmai River, which runs from the northwest corner to the southeast through the training ground. Crossing this river and then over the Qingbai Mountains is the North Pole.
The two walked out of the deep woods and stopped in a clearing.
Gu Zheng walked aside to deal with the grouse, and He Jing put down the branches he had picked up along the way and lit them with a flint.
Gu Zheng tore the meat into pieces and roasted it, and it was cooked quickly.
The smell went through He Jing's nose and into his stomach.
“Smells so good!”
Gu Zheng handed over a piece, He Jing blew on it twice and put it in his mouth. It was fragrant and hot!
I swallowed my tongue along with it and didn't stop until I had eaten most of it.
"Is this a pheasant? It can actually fly." He Jing wondered.
"No, it's a grouse, a bird."
"Ah? Such a big bird?" The cat was shocked. How could it fly far?
"This is considered a medium-sized bird. There are larger ones like golden eagles, peregrine falcons, vultures, etc. However, it is medium-sized and fleshy, so it can only fly short distances."
"oh oh!"
"Another slice?"
"Hmm!" In the end, almost one and a half of them went into her stomach.
She lay down in a patch of lush grass to digest her food. The trees in front of her were in full bloom, and the rich green was covered with brown and purple cones and small flowers.
The branches at the edges hang low, which is very elegant.
The sun was hanging high in the sky, trying to get to the kitten through the layers of branches and leaves.
He Jing was drowsy, it was time for a nap. Gu Zheng and He Jing slept under the tree for a while. When they opened their eyes again, the kitten lying beside them was gone.
The tiger woke up instantly and stood up immediately.
"Gu Zheng? What's wrong?"
The tiger raised his head and looked in the direction of the sound.
A cat was squatting on a branch high above his head. If it weren't for Gu Zheng's good eyesight, anyone else might not have seen it. "Why are you running so high?"
He Jing raised the little squirrel in his hand towards Gu Zheng and said, "I'm chasing it for fun..."
"Can you still come down?"
“…I just want to bask in the sun. →_→”
"Then call me after you finish basking in the sun." Gu Zheng chuckled and looked at the cat on the tree, like snow falling on the tree.
He Jing was really helpless. The tree looked easy to climb, and it was indeed easy to climb. She had been chasing the little squirrel and had climbed so high without realizing it. It must have been more than ten meters!
By the time I realized what was happening, I couldn't get off.
She bared her teeth at the squirrel in her hand, "It's all your fault!"
The squirrel suddenly laughed out loud.
"Ah! You you you?"
"Hahahahahaha, you're such an interesting little cat!"
"You're pretending to be a rat and tricking me?!"
"I am a squirrel!" The squirrel laughed so hard that it shook.
“…”That makes sense.
-----------------
When He Jing woke up, Gu Zheng was still sleeping, and Baihu beside him was sleeping soundly.
This was the first time she woke up first.
The sun had already set, and He Jing was quiet, not wanting to disturb them.
The leaves above my head swayed gently, with a slight squeaking sound in the rustling.
He Jing pricked up his ears and took a casual glance. It was an orange-red squirrel!
The kitten gently grabbed the tree trunk and climbed up, taking every step carefully. The squirrel did not run away, but moved quietly like the kitten.
Just when she was about to catch it, the squirrel slipped away from her sight, and its big tail brushed her nose before it left!!!
Provocation!!! Blatant provocation!!!
He Jing becomes more and more courageous as the battle progresses! He is just one step away from catching him!!
The body pressed lower and lower, and the tail that had been shaking slowly also pressed down, and the attack was quick!
Caught it!
There was a flash of surprise in the squirrel's eyes. He didn't expect to be caught.
It was so fast that it didn't seem like an illusion.
"Hehe, I caught you. I'll let you run again!" He Jing laughed quietly and rubbed its tail hard!
She was nestled in a tree branch, playing with the squirrel for a while, petting its head and rubbing its tail. Suddenly, her eyes froze. Shocked? Frozen!
this?
Did it climb to the sky?!
What to do?! She can’t seem to get down!!
The squirrel squeaked and laughed, and reacted quickly? It must be an illusion!
The kitten grinned and the squirrel laughed so hard that its body shook.
"You really can't go down?"
"No!"
"Oh~ Then you just want to enjoy the scenery from up there, hahahaha."
"......￣へ￣
