Since her Qiankun Bag was already full of various treasures, she put the blood-tear jade bamboo she had cut down into an ordinary storage bag.
The process didn't take too long, and preparations were completed quickly.
However, when she looked down from the top, she suddenly noticed a black and white creature on the rock wall. It looked like a cub, struggling to climb up its plump body.
The jade was exceptionally smooth, and even though the demonic beast had sharp claws, it still tumbled down after climbing a quarter of the way.
Its chubby body even bounced twice on the ground, which made the little dumpling stomp its feet in anger, looking quite adorable.
Shen Sanruo smiled and looked away.
The black and white beast seemed to sense something, and its gaze suddenly locked onto her, its dark eyes staring straight at her.
Shen Sanruo's gaze met itss, but she didn't pay it any mind. She jumped off the platform and joined Fang Yu.
After the two had walked quite a distance, Shen Sanruo felt as if something was watching her from behind.
She turned her head and found that it was the black and white monster cub she had just seen, which had followed her all the way.
His eyes, hidden beneath dark circles as if he'd been up two sleepless nights, stared unblinkingly at her.
Shen Sangruo naturally recognized this representative monster of the Illusory Realm as the Bamboo Bear.
During the time she paused, the bamboo bear cub had already run up to her on its four short legs at an extremely fast speed.
And it climbed up her clothes and onto her body.
Chen Sangruo: ? ? ?
The bamboo bear cub's sudden action caught her off guard, leaving her unsure how to react.
Fang Yu turned around at this moment and, seeing the round, chubby bamboo bear cub on her back, exclaimed in surprise:
"How come you suddenly have monsters growing on your body when I wasn't paying attention for just a short while?"
"It followed us on its own," Shen Sangruo explained helplessly.
She tried to grab the little creature off her, but its claws seemed to be firmly welded to her body, and no matter how she pulled, it wouldn't come off.
"Wow, that's really something." Fang Yu stroked his chin. "What does it want to do?"
Shen Sanruo couldn't figure out the bamboo bear cub's intentions either, but she could sense that it wasn't aggressive towards her.
The little guy climbed all the way up until he reached her waist, then started nudging her with his head.
She didn't use much force; she could even feel its soft head.
But she couldn't keep being pushed around like this, so she took out everything she had at her waist, including her Qiankun bag and storage bag.
Then, as expected, the bamboo bear stopped moving and continued crawling towards the hand holding the storage bag.
"I think I know why it's following me." She took out the freshly cut Blood Tears Jade Bamboo from her storage bag and handed it to the bamboo bear's paw.
The little guy hugged the Blood Tears Jade Bamboo and started munching away, quickly devouring the jade-like bamboo stalk.
Shen Sangruo was somewhat surprised that it could smell the fresh fragrance of bamboo through the storage bag.
"So he wanted to eat bamboo," Fang Yu said with a sudden realization. "The little guy is quite picky."
It is surrounded by bamboo, but it only eats Blood Tears Jade Bamboo.
"Then why doesn't it go up there? There's a huge expanse of Blood Tears Jade Bamboo there," Fang Yu added.
Shen Sanruo pointed to the bamboo bear, indicating that he should look at its four fat and short legs.
Fang Yu: "Hiss..."
Okay, it's not that they don't want to, it's that they can't climb up.
While it was busy gnawing on bamboo, Chen Sanruo picked it up from her body and stuffed a few more Blood Tears Jade Bamboo stalks into its arms.
"They shouldn't follow me now, let's go."
However, she had only taken a few steps when the bamboo bear howled and charged at her like a "pig charging forward."
He even tried to climb on her again.
"Could it be that I haven't given enough?" Shen Sanruo pondered, her eyes fixed on the ground.
She glanced at the high platform over there and said to Fang Yu, "Wait here for a moment, I'll take it up there."
It surely wouldn't find this enough; the entire bamboo forest belonged to it.
She bent down and picked up the little dumpling, taking the opportunity to stroke it a couple of times. Its fur was as smooth as Youyou's, but it was softer than Youyou's.
Well, Shen Sang might attribute the reason to the bamboo bear being too fat.
Fortunately, it was still within her tolerance level, and carrying it up the platform wasn't too strenuous.
If it weren't for the special circumstances at the moment, the bamboo bear's silly and cute appearance would be quite endearing.
After putting the bamboo bear down, she turned and left.
The little guy's eyes lit up when he saw the Blood Tears Jade Bamboo. He couldn't wait to break off several pieces and put them in his mouth. When he turned his head, he found that Chen Sangri was gone.
It looked at the Blood and Tears Jade Bamboo in its hand, then at the direction Chen Sangruo had left, and almost shook itself into a rattle.
A conflicted look appeared in his dark circles.
After hesitating for a while, it threw down the bamboo in its hand and followed Chen Sangruo with great enthusiasm.
It can't go up, but that doesn't mean it can't go down.
It leaped down, curled its body into a ball, bounced several times as before, and landed on the ground unharmed.
It stretched its body, shook its short legs, and continued to chase after Chen Sangruo.
This time, its purpose was very clear: it only climbed onto her upper body, found a comfortable spot, and then hung on her without moving.
And he showed a contented expression.
It's so warm.
Shen Sangruo: ...
Can anyone tell her how this thing caught up with her again?
“Sister Sang Ruo, it seems to have attached itself to you.” Fang Yu looked at the black and white ball of fluff. “It even doesn’t want that patch of bamboo anymore.”
"Aside from the demonic beasts trained by the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect, this is the first time I've seen such a friendly demonic beast."
Shen Sangruo really didn't understand why this little guy was sticking to her. Was it just because they made eye contact? Was it just because she glanced at him in the crowd?
Or was it because she laughed at it for falling off the rock face?
After that, she tried many methods, and no matter how far she put the little guy or how roundabout the route she took, it would always happily find her.
It knows the roads here as well as it does its own home.
If Shen Sangruo had no other choice, he would have to take it with him and hand it over to the people who were in charge of protecting this kind of monster when he arrived at Wuqing Village.
Bamboo bears are rare in the Illusory Realm, and each one is very precious.
Fortunately, it's just a cub and not too conspicuous, so it's not bad to have it as a cute and silly mascot.
So she now has another bamboo bear pendant on her.
First Fang Yu, then Zhu Xiong. Shen Sangru had a premonition that if she stayed any longer, more people or monsters would probably join her team.
"We must find the Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Myriad-Change Wood as soon as possible," she whispered.
The little pendant hanging on her heard this, and the bamboo bear lazily yawned, twitched its nose, and looked in one direction.
With her head slightly raised, DouDou's eyes, surrounded by dark circles, gleamed with arrogance.
It's not a mascot at all.
