The thing chirped and moved around Xiaolan's legs.
Outside, the rustling sound is still approaching.
Xiaolan made a judgment and felt that this furry thing that could only chirp would be easier to deal with. After all, how ferocious can a long-haired thing be? With this thought in mind, she grabbed the thing behind her and saw that the thing that was cursing was there.
He was caught in Xiaolan's hands.
Fortunately, it's a small thing.
The chirping sound got louder, and Xiaolan grabbed the thing in front of her.
It turned out to be a fat gray mouse.
The fat mouse kicked its limbs desperately, stared at Xiaolan dissatisfiedly with its small black eyes, and kept chirping in its mouth.
Just as Xiaolan was about to throw the gray gadget out of the tree hole, she discovered that there was a seam on the mouse's gray-pink belly between its two stooped hind legs.
The mouse struggled violently, and the seam opened, and several small heads with the same sharp beaks poked out from inside.
Ah, kangaroo?
No, it's a possum.
He occupied the nest of a mother opossum with her children.
Are you still going to throw it out?
Xiaolan helplessly held her forehead and retracted her right hand that was ready to throw the mouse away.
The mother possum glared at Xiaolan angrily. She lowered her head and let out a sharp cry. The children's curious little heads instantly retracted into the mother's belly.
I still have a bit of humanity, and I really can't do such a thing as throwing a mother with her child out of the house.
"Stop barking," Xiaolan became anxious as she listened to the approaching rustling outside. She could only point at the mother opossum's nose and threaten in a low voice, "Stop barking, or I will eat you if you yell again!"
I don’t know if the mother possum understood Xiao Lan’s words, or was simply frightened by the rat-eating expression on her face. As soon as Xiao Lan finished speaking, the mother opossum’s cry actually stopped.
"Be good..." Xiaolan said softly, "As long as you, no, you guys... um!"
Before she finished speaking, the mother possum flew up and kicked Xiaolan directly on the mouth.
"squeak!"
The mother possum slapped Xiaolan's mouth boldly and winked at the world outside the dead tree.
Wink! This mouse is actually winking!
But Xiaolan still understood its meaning.
"That thing outside is approaching! Shut up!" This is probably what the "squeak" meant just now.
Xiao Lan grabbed the mother's back, and the mother's little feet were on Xiao Lan's mouth. One person and a group of mice listened to the rustling sound outside and scratched through the grass nearby and the dry bark of the tree.
Then, suddenly it stopped.
Xiaolan tensed up her nerves and felt like she was almost suffocating from holding her breath.
"Hiss——"
It's a snake!
The sound of snakes echoed outside the tree hole, and Xiaolan and the possum family in the hole trembled together.
Xiao Lan made a distinction and realized that she was the only one trembling. It was really sad that the possum, which was just below the snake's food chain, was not as scared as Xiao Lan.
The mother possum looked at Xiaolan with disdain.
Xiaolan couldn't help but admire this female mouse's head. She suddenly became a little afraid of this mouse.
After a while, the rustling sound finally faded away, and slowly it was no longer audible.
Gone?
Xiaolan stuck her head out.
Outside the cave, it was peaceful again.
The mother possum jumped away from Xiaolan's relaxed fingertips and put her head on Xiaolan's back, as if she was trying to drive her out of her tree hole.
"Don't be like this, don't..." Xiaolan moved away embarrassedly, "Sister, don't be like this, your territory is so big that you can't accommodate a petite me?"
The possum barked a few times angrily, probably scolding himself, and then humped harder.
Xiaolan got out of the tree hole aggrievedly, "Sister, can't you just take me in for one night? Can you bear it?"
It endures.
Xiaolan had carefully left the dead tree. When she turned around, she could still see the possum standing upright at the entrance of the tree hole as if guarding the door. The little possums got out of their mother's bag and lay neatly on their backs.
On her back, a group of possums watched the intruder Xiaolan leave.
How cruel.
Xiaolan walked a few steps into the dense forest, which was full of dangers. From a distance, there seemed to be a scream.
And it's like a human scream.
There was only a short scream, and the scream quickly disappeared into the vast wind, as if it had never sounded.
There may be companions ahead, or there may be danger.
Xiaolan hesitated for a while, then ran over.
The sound had disappeared, and Xiaolan became increasingly unsure whether she was running in the right direction.
Until that bright orange appears in the middle of dark green.
Orange red.
An orange-red color that does not belong in this forest.
Xiaolan slowed down and stood behind a wild banana tree, quietly looking at the orange-red patch of land.
Sure enough, he is a person.
A girl whose face could not be seen clearly fell among the epiphytes that were climbing all over the ground. Her orange-red sweatshirt was slowly soaked in the blood that spilled from her neck.
There was no movement around, and the girl made no movement.
"Hey!..." Xiaolan shouted in a distant voice.
There is no sound.
No response.
"Are you okay?" Xiaolan's voice became louder.
She really doesn't seem to be doing well.
Xiaolan once again confirmed that there was no danger around her, released the tree trunk tightly in her hands, and stumbled towards the girl.
The girl was lying on the ground, her face buried deeply among the soil and plants. When Xiaolan touched her exposed forearm, she already knew that the girl was already dead.
It should be said that he quit the game.
The girl's whole body was cold, and a laceration stretched from her chest to her chin, penetrating her entire neck. The girl's skin had turned dark gray, and the blood no longer gurgled out.
Xiaolan held the girl's body and looked around.
If that scream came from this girl, then the thing that killed her must not be far away.
Xiaolan closed her eyes.
Now, dream.
Being able to fall asleep smoothly and enter sleep no matter what the circumstances is already Xiaolan's unique skill. Besides, the things in this forest are not necessarily more dangerous than the evil forces in the castle in the previous level. Therefore, it didn't take long for Xiaolan to
Then came her first dream.
Running by myself.
Xiaolan saw the fluttering orange clothes with her peripheral vision and confirmed that she was not in the wrong dream.
While running, Xiaolan saw a small green snake falling in front of him and cut it off with his own knife.
He raised his head and saw a giant snake like a golden dragon hovering under the dark sky.
It’s the Moon Village level!
Xiaolan also forgot which level it was. He only saw the girl meeting other teammates. Their experiences were similar to Xiaolan's own. Soon, Moon Village passed the level.
After this dream ended, Xiaolan took a rest from deep sleep, and then began the second period of sleep.
She saw Ling, Rong Fa, and Xu Yiling, Ling's mother.
This is their story.
But this time, Xiaolan saw something she had never experienced before.
