Chapter 357 The Kids Act Alone for the First Time
After leaving the tribe, He Jiaojiao felt that her partners seemed to be deliberately trying to divert her attention.
He Jiaojiao didn't notice it at first, but when it was Zhutian's turn, Zhutian became very proactive, and even told He Jiaojiao some interesting things that happened when he was hunting in the past.
This is simply too abnormal for Zhutian, who has always had a very low sense of presence.
Thinking back on everything that happened over the past few days, He Jiaojiao realized that her partner was deliberately trying to make her happy.
In order to reassure her friends, He Jiaojiao really cooperated with them. Gradually, it seemed that she was no longer as worried about Yinchuan as she was at the beginning.
"Jiaojiao, I just went hunting and saw an orchard ahead. Should we go take a look?"
Zhutian threw the captured pheasant to Ziyi to deal with, then he washed himself a little and came to He Jiaojiao and asked.
"Fruit forest?"
He Jiaojiao couldn't help but feel a little strange.
Logically speaking, people in the animal world would not be able to think of how to gather trees into a forest, let alone a large orchard. This is really strange.
unless......
He Jiaojiao suddenly thought of her previous suspicion. Since she could travel to the Beast World, then others could too. Maybe she was not the only modern person in the Beast World.
"Then let's go check it out after we eat!"
Everyone nodded, especially the kids. They were all very excited when they heard that there was fresh fruit to eat. After all, they were tired of the fruit in He Jiaojiao's space and wanted to try something different.
Ziyi worked quickly and cooked the food in no time.
He Jiaojiao ate slowly, but the kids wolfed down their food. Seeing this, He Jiaojiao couldn't help but smile and persuaded them, "You guys, eat slowly."
"They!" Lin Feng said unhappily, "As soon as they heard there was an orchard not far ahead, they couldn't wait to go check it out."
"Look at you guys, it's as if your mother didn't give you any fruit to eat on weekdays?"
Lin Feng said words of disgust, but his hands did not stop moving, and he kept putting meat into the bowls of the kids.
"That's different!" Xikang said incoherently with his mouth full of food.
"Oh?" He Jiaojiao became interested and asked, "Is there something different?"
Xikang swallowed the food in his mouth with great effort, and then he said loudly, "I asked Father Zhutian, and he said that there is a kind of fruit grown over there that he has never seen before. It is bright red and sounds delicious."
Uh...He Jiaojiao never thought that this would be the reason.
But she was also very curious about what kind of fruits were grown there.
After dinner, He Jiaojiao saw the kids gathered together in the distance, not knowing what they were discussing. However, she was not in a hurry and just sat there waiting. After all, no matter what the kids discussed, they would definitely ask her first.
He Jiaojiao is still very confident about this.
Sure enough, after the boys discussed for a while, You Zening took the lead and walked towards He Jiaojiao.
"Zening, is there something you want to tell mother?"
After Mo Ran's continuous training in the later period, Zening's star level has now reached the peak of six stars and will soon break through seven stars. Jiaojiao is very pleased to see the growth of the cubs.
"Mom, I want to take my brothers to the orchard first..."
Perhaps Zening felt that He Jiaojiao would not agree, so his voice became lower and lower, sounding less confident.
He Jiaojiao glanced at Zhutian, who was not far away. Zhutian seemed to sense something, looked up at her, and nodded imperceptibly. Then she looked at the other children not far away. They all seemed to be looking forward to it, so He Jiaojiao nodded.
"can!"
"Okay~" Zening didn't seem to hear what He Jiaojiao said clearly. He just responded lightly. It took him a long while to react. He looked at He Jiaojiao in disbelief and raised his voice and asked, "Mother, what did you say?"
"Mom said yes!" He Jiaojiao was amused by Zening's reaction and couldn't help but say with a smile.
"Really?"
Zening still couldn't believe it and confirmed it again and again.
"If you ask again, mother will regret it~"
Hearing this, Zening didn't dare to ask any more questions. He thanked them repeatedly and ran towards his brothers.
"Be sure to pay attention to safety!"
He Jiaojiao couldn't help but give a reminder. After all, this was her first time trying to let the kids act alone, so she was inevitably a little worried.
Watching the children walk away, He Jiaojiao felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. It was like she was reluctant to leave, but also very proud.
"Our Jiaojiao is actually willing to let the kids act alone now!"
Mo Ran came over with a teasing look on his face and stood side by side with He Jiaojiao.
"Aran, you actually laughed at me!" He Jiaojiao hit him angrily and looked reluctantly at the direction where the kids left.
"Since you are worried, let's get ready to set off now!" Zhutian said while trying not to smile.
He Jiaojiao nodded quickly, at least they could follow closer, so that if the kids were in danger, the fathers could take action in time.
So the group set off in a hurry, but the fathers also controlled their speed, trying their best not to let the children notice that they were following them.
The kids were happily walking and making noises along the way. This was the first time they were out of the sight of their elders, and they felt extremely happy.
"Xikang, don't be so curious about everything. There might be danger in this forest."
When Zening saw Xikang leaving the team again, he couldn't help but speak.
Xi Kang waved his hand nonchalantly, "This forest looks so peaceful, nothing will happen."
Zening was helpless. He knew that Xikang would not obey him because he was just a little bit higher than him in star rank. But as the eldest brother, he had to ensure everyone's safety.
"You should stay with us..."
Before Zening could finish his words, he was knocked away by a blue light.
All the boys immediately went on alert. Xikang didn't expect that there was actually danger in the forest. Seeing that Zening was injured because of him, he hurried over and helped him up.
"Are you okay?"
Xikang carefully protected the person behind him and glanced around warily.
"I didn't expect it to be just a few brats. Looks like we won't get anything today!"
An extremely disdainful voice was heard. The cubs looked over and saw a snake beastman at least two meters tall walking out. When he saw Xiang Zening, he was stunned for a moment, "Oh, I didn't expect that we are from the same tribe!"
Xikang was enraged by the orc's attitude, "Why did you attack us?"
The snake orc snorted coldly, "I sensed some energy fluctuations here, and thought it was some lone orc, thinking I might be able to get some crystals, but I didn't expect it to be a bunch of you, barely-grown brats."
This was the first time that Xikang and others were looked down upon like this. The other party didn't even bother to look at the animal patterns on their bodies.
Xikang glanced at Hongyi. They both noticed that the other party was just a seven-star snake beastman. However, it was said that stray beasts had strong combat capabilities, so they still had to be careful.
But the other party only has one person, and they have so many, so they won’t suffer any loss.
So, at Xikang's signal, Weikang and Hongyi instantly launched an attack on the snake beastman.
