Shui Ling's body stiffened, this was very likely.

Gong Qianyu smiled and said: "I'm just talking nonsense, don't worry."

"Yeah." Shui Ling felt a little uneasy.

The two of them settled directly from the tree, and soon saw a lake behind the mountain, and the water in the lake was actually steaming.

Shui Ling stood on the tree and said dumbfounded: "You were right, look at those!"

Gong Qianyu nodded. He saw many giant creatures in the lake, some like dragons and some like kuns.

Because of their huge size, they can be seen clearly from a distance.

But this is also a good thing. There are such strange creatures, and then myths such as dragons giving birth to nine sons can be made up.

Gong Qianyu asked: "Are you still going?"

Shui Ling shook his head, "I'm not going." What else is there to see? Even if you go there, you can't fish. You can't drag a mutated creature back to eat, right?

Now we need to protect them and let more people know about them.

Gong Qianyu nodded. He saw that Shuiling was disappointed and comforted him: "Let's look for other food. If there is water here, then there must be an abundance of plants."

"That's right, let's go." Shui Ling immediately became energetic.

The two of them continued to approach the lake.

There are reeds on the shore of the lake. Shui Ling pulled up a reed with the intention of giving it a try. Unexpectedly, the root of the reed was as enlarged as a white radish.

She whittled it with a dagger and licked it tentatively. It tasted like wild rice.

"This is edible, but it's strange. Why is it hot here?"

Gong Qianyu observed the environment. It looked a bit like a volcanic crater, but the terrain here was not high, so he couldn't say with certainty that there was a volcano underneath.

Shui Ling didn't think too much, pulled out some reeds and threw them on the shore, "There are a lot of these, let the tribe come to collect them. Seeing that the creatures in the lake are not dangerous, it is just right for the tribe to come and see...mythical creatures."

Gong Qianyu laughed and nodded: "Okay, let's find something else."

"Hmm." Shui Ling was very excited now that she had found food. She left the reed swamp and looked for possible edible plants on the shore.

Finally she found the cress, but the cress was taller than any she had ever seen before, and was almost mistaken for mugwort.

Gong Qianyu shouted: "Daughter-in-law, there are eggs here."

Shui Ling immediately ran over and saw a bird's nest, which looked a bit like a wild duck's nest.

"Is it a duck egg? If it is the egg of these creatures, you cannot eat it."

Just as he was talking, one of the basketball-sized eggs began to break out of its shell, and a yellow duck's beak protruded from the inside.

Gong Qianyu smiled, "I can't even eat it now."

Shui Ling's eyes widened and she said, "Is this a duck? Then we can take it back and raise it."

Gong Qianyu shook his head, "It feels cold to the people living there now, how can we raise such a delicate cub?"

Shui Ling nodded, "Yes, it's winter now, so if you want to raise it, you need to raise it in spring."

"Yes, it's too cold now. It's better to let them live here." Gong Qianyu looked up and saw no wild ducks flying.

Shui Ling pulled Gong Qianyu back, "Let's go, don't touch them."

"Yes." Gong Qianyu nodded, because he was afraid that their mother would not recognize her children.

However, the duck that just broke out of its shell actually quacked at Shuiling, as if he recognized her as his mother.

Shui Ling suddenly remembered the habits of birds. They regard the first creature they see as their mother after breaking out of their shells.

"What should I do?"

Gong Qianyu pondered for a moment and replied: "Just keep it, there's nothing wrong with one."

"Okay." Shui Ling turned back and bent down to pick up the little duck. Another egg also hatched. "

In the end, she had to leave with the two ducks in her arms. There were still four eggs in the nest. The mother duck probably wouldn't notice that two were missing.

Gong Qianyu asked: "Shall we go back?"

Shui Ling looked around, nodded and said, "Go back."

She was afraid that the two ducklings would freeze. Although the newly hatched ones did not need to eat, it was too cold outside.

Gong Qianyu saw her holding the little duck, her cautious look was a bit funny, and it was not easy to rush on her way.

He hugged Shui Ling directly and said, "I'll take you away."

"Yeah." Shui Ling simply nestled comfortably in her arms.

Now Gong Qianyu was holding his wife in front and carrying a lot of reed roots and cress behind him, and ran all the way to the bear cave. It was almost night.

The black bear saw the reed roots and pulled them over to eat them. He seemed to like them very much.

Shui Ling took one look and quickly grabbed one back, "I have to take this back, don't eat them all."

The big bear looked silly, as if he was giggling.

Shui Ling put the reed roots and cress into his backpack, and took them back one by one to make them.

Gong Qianyu asked: "Are you leaving?"

Shui Ling glanced at the honey bucket and saw that the big bear hadn't stolen it at all, probably because the hive hadn't finished eating yet.

"Let's go, let's talk about it back to the tribe."

Gong Qianyu asked again: "Do you want to take them to settle by the lake?"

Shui Ling shook his head, "No, it's better here. Although there is abundant food there, there are many monsters... No, there are many mythical creatures, so we can't disturb them."

Gong Qianyu is young. This is the excuse given by the younger daughter-in-law. After all, they were sent to this time and space because they were looking for a new address in Kyoto.

The tribes encountered at that time were probably the descendants of these people now, so Shui Ling didn't want them to change places to live, which might change the future.

The two chatted for a while, and it was just dark when they returned to the tribe. The big bonfire was like a bright light at home in the middle of the night, making people feel warm.

The great witch stood by the bonfire and looked around, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the two men coming back.

Shui Ling smiled and walked over, acting like a child, "I'm back."

The great witch smiled and said, "Look at you, you are so old and you are still acting like a spoiled brat." Although she blamed her, her eyes were full of reassuring smiles.

Shui Ling tugged at the hem of his clothes and said, "Look, little duck, we can raise ducks."

Da Wu's eyes lit up, and he quickly pulled Shui Ling into the house, "Come in quickly, don't freeze."

The stove in the house is very hot, so it is very warm, and the body temperature is 25 degrees.

The great witch pulled a few handfuls of straw beside him and twisted it into a straw nest without knowing how.

"Here, put it here."

"Okay." Shui Ling took out the little duck and put it into the grass nest.

The big witch smiled and said: "I also know that I brought two back. They are not bad. You don't have to worry about being woken up at night."

Only then did Shui Ling notice this problem. A single duck would quack and quack in search of a companion, but two ducks clinging to each other reduced their panic.

"Only these two hatched at that time, and I couldn't take away the eggs. After all, it's winter and I can't raise more eggs. When spring comes, I can collect more eggs to hatch."

The great witch nodded, "Well, now is not the time."

Shuiling made up a fairy tale about what he saw today and told it to the great witch, who listened with great interest.

After listening to it, she smiled and said: "Your story is good, but how do they go to the cliff to collect food? They can't fly like you, so you might as well build a house there, and then I will find an opportunity to say that you are gods.

, I live there myself, and I asked you to help them because of my strong abilities."

The corner of Shui Ling's mouth twitched and she asked tentatively: "Can you share the credit with Xian Jiuyi? After all, she wants to enshrine her child as a god."
