happy apocalypse

Chapter 138

Really, I really think it is very anthropomorphic, the expression on its face is very similar to a person, and it made a few gestures with me, and I actually understood them all.

It's saying I stole their food and the mushrooms I piled up in a pile are theirs, it's mad at me for stealing and asking me to keep the mushrooms and I'm leaving, if there's anything else on its mind , at your own peril.

Of course, it is a bit simpler to draw, and these ideas are all processed by me in the later stage.But the overall meaning is about the same.

I was a little dumbfounded. These mushrooms belonged to the owner. Although I was very surprised, it is impossible for a person of my age to compete with the little squirrel for food, so I quickly explained: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, this is also a misunderstanding, I I don't know that these mushrooms belong to you, but I have already picked them, do you want more? If you want, you can take them back, you are welcome." I was talking incoherently.

Red Ear looked at me for a while, and guessed that I was honest and friendly, so he believed me, issued an order, and hundreds of squirrels came down from a tree, picking me up one by one. All the mushrooms have been moved away, and there is not even a scum left for me.

Then Red Ear made another gesture to me, which meant to tell me that I can leave.

I looked at the abandoned pile of grass in front of me and asked, "Do you want this pair of grass? If you don't want it, can I take it?"

Hong Er looked at me and nodded. I hurriedly put the haystack in front of me into the ring. Seeing that there was a change in the way Hong Er looked at me, I quickly explained: "Little trick, little trick, I'm leaving right now."

After I finished speaking, when I raised my legs to leave, I realized that it was already the time agreed with Jiang Zhi, and I hadn’t entered the space yet, and Jiang Zhi didn’t know why he was worried inside, so I stopped again Said to Hong Er: "Well, I still have something to do, I have to leave for a while, and I must leave when I come back, you don't have to see me off, we will meet later." After I finished speaking, I disappeared out of thin air.

I didn't see the gleam in the eyes of the red ears outside when they saw me disappear.

After I entered the space, I saw Jiang Zhi standing in the yard, walking back and forth anxiously. When I felt that I had entered the space, he ran towards me quickly. Seeing that I appeared intact, I became angry. I went up and dragged me to the yard, and said while walking: "You said several times when you came in, what time is it now, did you forget everything about picking mushrooms, it seems that I have not educated you for a long time , your skin is tight."

After finishing speaking, he pulled me to the dining table, and then said: "Hum, I see that you have a good attitude in admitting your mistakes this time, so I will forgive you once. If you are still so unorganized and disciplined next time, you will be punished twice. It is absolutely serious." deal with."

After he pushed me to sit on the chair, his tone became much gentler, and he said: "You are hungry, eat quickly, and I told you not to let you go outside by yourself, without my supervision, you must have forgotten everything."

I looked at the rice bowl in my hand and realized that I was a little hungry. I thought I'd better wait until the meal was over before telling him what happened outside. , and then I started to eat the loving dinner he made for me.

I didn't talk to Jiang Zhi about being surrounded by tens of thousands of squirrels outside until I was full.

After Jiang Zhi heard this, his first reaction was to drag me over again, and asked me while checking for himself: "Are you okay?"

I pressed his groping hands and said, "It's okay, it's okay. If there's something wrong, I'd have told you when I came in. Really, I was only surrounded, not beaten."

After Jiang Zhi was sure that I was fine, he flicked a brain on my head with his index and middle fingers, and said angrily: "You said how old you are, why are you still so troublesome, how old are you? After a while, you can attract so many squirrels, you are amazing."

It's not that I didn't hear what he meant to hurt me, but I still said with a shy face: "Of course, you don't look at who I am. Can ordinary people see such a magnificent and magnificent scene? There are tens of thousands of them!" The squirrel, and that squirrel with red ears, we have had a friendly exchange between two species."

As I talked, I yelled, "I remembered."

Jiang Zhi was terrified by my yelling, pulled me back onto his knees, and said, "Thanks to my cultivation, otherwise my heart would twitch intermittently from your scare, wouldn't you be more stable? Hey, tell me, what do you remember?"

Feeling embarrassed, I rubbed his heart twice, and then said to him: "I remembered, there was something wrong with that red ear just now."

"Ok?"

"Didn't I tell you just now, did I communicate with it for a while? Now that I think about it, I gestured with it at the beginning, and it gestured with me too. Later, I just used words directly, and it also I understand, do you think there is something wrong with it?" My nerve reaction was slow, and it was only then that I remembered what was wrong.

"Are you sure?" Jiang Zhi asked me with a serious face.

"Of course I'm sure. Although my reaction is slower, my memory is still very good. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to shout out."

"Then there is indeed something wrong with it. If it can understand your gestures, it can also be said that it may have been raised and trained by humans before, but if it can compare gestures like humans and understand people's speech, then It's not ordinary." Jiang Zhi said while thinking.

"Yes, its face is still very human. Seeing me put down the scythe, my face immediately softened, and the little eyes also changed. I can't tell why it's different. Anyway, that's how I feel. of."

I can't find words to describe the difference in red ears, only how I feel.Then he asked Jiang Zhi: "Tell me, is it the kind of spirit beast mentioned in the novel? The kind that has already opened its spiritual wisdom."

Jiang Zhi didn't answer me right away, and after thinking for a while, he said, "It's possible what you said. We started to think that cultivating immortals is a myth, but aren't we cultivating immortals now? We also found mosquito repellent grass in this mountain, which is unique to the world of cultivating immortals. Then it's not so strange that there are a few spirit beasts with enlightened wisdom here."

He looked at me who was hesitant to speak and said: "You should get rid of the thoughts in your mind as soon as possible. It is not something we can raise now. We don't have the ability to control it. Taking it out of this pine forest may not be a good thing, maybe It will hurt the family."

After I heard this, I immediately gave up the idea of ​​adopting Red Ear.What Jiang Zhi said is right, we have cultivated naturally, but we don't know which stage we have reached as a cultivator, and we don't know how to raise spiritual pets, so it's better not to have this idea.

Jiang Zhi saw that I was a little downcast, so he comforted me and said: "Although we can't raise it, we know it lives here. If you have time in the future, come and see it more. Maybe it will come to us willingly after it understands us. You may not necessarily go with us."

"Well, I don't have to take it away. It's the first time I see such a small animal that can understand human language and communicate with people. It's a bit novel. But like you said, we have no interest in it. Conflict, then we and it must not be enemies, maybe we can become friends in the future, it’s all a possibility.”

"It's good if you understand. Well, let's go out together now. If they have already left, forget it, and we will leave too. If they haven't left, let's communicate with them, maybe we can get something useful information."

Then we will come out of the space.

All the squirrels on the tree disappeared, only Red Ear was still squatting in place and waiting for me. Seeing us appear, he gave us a soft cry.

When I saw the red ear, I said to Jiang Zhi, "Look, that's the red ear."

Both Jiang Zhi and I saw Red Ear because I called it Red Ear and his face was distorted.

Afterwards, as a representative, I had an in-depth and long-term bilateral meeting with Hong Er.But this meeting was a failure, because the other party was very dishonest and adopted the three-no principle of not listening, not seeing, and not believing us.

I was a little surprised, although it threatened me before entering the space, I could feel that it was not malicious.

Why did its attitude change so much after leaving the space?

It turns out that the red ear really waited for me to appear again on purpose. It only showed in this bilateral meeting that human beings are cunning and cunning, and it is completely unbelievable. Leave this pine forest immediately, or you will be attacked.

I was a little unwilling to leave like this, so I discussed with my smiling face and wanted to cut some grass here. I know they probably don’t need that grass, or they wouldn’t have agreed so easily to take the grass on the ground at the beginning. Heaped up.

Red Ears answered me by showing its two sharp dies to me.

What does this mean? Even if I am stupid, I can understand it.

Knowing that pine mushrooms are food for squirrels, I gave up the idea of ​​picking them and keeping them for myself. A gentleman does not take what others like, and I also understand why Red Ear cares so much about those mushrooms.

The squirrel is an omnivorous animal. When food is abundant, it likes to eat nuts, such as pine nuts. However, it is not always enough to raise tens of thousands or even more squirrels in this pine forest.Because not only squirrels eat pine nuts in this pine forest, for example, when we saw the white bones, it should be that bears and other animals came to the pine forest to find pine nuts, but they died of freezing or starvation (I think so).

When there is a shortage of food, squirrels don't care so much if they want to fill their stomachs. Many things can be their food, such as bugs, vegetables, fruits and even mushrooms.

Moreover, although squirrels do not hibernate, their habit is to bury food in the ground in autumn to store food for the whole winter, and dig it out to eat in winter. The long cold winter like last year and the thick snow must have faced these squirrels. If there is not enough food reserves, they will die in large numbers.

So I understand Hong Er's stinginess. If I were Hong Er, I would take care of all the edible food and prevent others from picking it at will.But in fact, Red Ear is more stingy than me, the grass is useless to them, and it won't even let me cut some.

I was very angry and the consequences were severe.
