Chapter 44 Daily Life at Wugui Mountain
After listening to the other party's words, Yanli finally figured out the meaning of Li Mingsheng's previous words. He stood up suddenly and found that he was not even as tall as the backpack. He was immediately deflated.
Yanli: "It was you who made me small. Before that, at the beach..."
Yanli didn't say anything else. Yes, there was really no need for the other party to give him an explanation.
"Last time at the beach, you asked me if becoming smaller was my special ability, and I answered yes!" Li Mingsheng fully demonstrated his shamelessness. He did answer, but he did not specify whether this ability was only for himself or for others.
Yanli thought about it carefully and realized that the other party had indeed admitted it at that time. He confronted Li Mingsheng with his eyes wide open. In the end, thanks to Li Mingsheng's strong facial control, Yanli was defeated and did not dwell on the matter any more.
"Then where are we now?" Yanli lay beside the backpack, stood on tiptoe, and tried to look out.
"Let me let you out first!" Li Mingsheng looked at the other person's naive appearance, put down the backpack with a motherly smile, and then chose a big stone for Yanli to sit on.
Because Yanli woke up, Li Mingsheng didn't have to carry him all the time. Even if he was attacked by strange beasts, Yanli could run away by himself, which made things much easier for Li Mingsheng.
Li Mingsheng: "The place we are staying at now, if I am not mistaken, should be in Wugui Mountain."
When he was being chased before, he ran towards Mount Wugui, and after entering here for several days, he has not seen the orcs who were chasing them before.
Yanli: "! Wugui Mountain!! There were rumors in the outside world that this place is a place where you can only enter but not leave."
Yanli suddenly jumped up, and his violent movement expressed his disbelief.
Li Mingsheng half squatted down, pinched Yanli's little ear and comforted him: "Whether it is true or not is still unknown, let's stay here and heal our wounds first, and then we can talk about it later. At least we can't go out during this snow season!"
After listening to Li Mingsheng's words, Yanli nodded in agreement. Then he realized why Li Mingsheng pinched his ear.
"Why are you pinching me?" Yanli, who always speaks his mind, asked.
"Sorry, I'm used to it!" Li Mingsheng showed a fake smile like a boy, coughed and said: "I'm going to dig the roots first, you stay by yourself for now!"
After saying this, he continued his task of digging the roots of the pond in a hurry, as if someone was chasing him from behind.
Li Mingsheng didn't dare to tell Yanli that he pinched him because he thought he was cute. If he said that, Yanli would probably be very angry.
When he first met Yanli, Li Mingsheng had expressed his love for Yanli's beast form, but was always interrupted by Yanli changing the subject. He seemed to be very sensitive about his own beast form, and Li Mingsheng did not dare to offend him.
"It's really weird!" Yanli muttered softly as he looked at Li Mingsheng's busy back.
He looked at his hanging right paw and touched the strange wooden board tied to his hand, feeling a little curious.
He asked loudly: "Brother Li, what is that thing in my hand? Why is it hanging like this?"
He was about to try to move, but was stopped by Li Mingsheng from a distance.
“If you don’t want to become disabled, don’t move!” Seeing Li Mingsheng’s serious tone, he immediately sat up straight and didn’t dare to move anymore.
"That is used to fix your hand. Didn't your hand bone break before? Use this to fix it so it can grow back again. If you move it around, be careful that the bone may grow crooked and your whole hand may become unusable. Don't cry!" Li Mingsheng deliberately spoke more seriously, for fear that Yanli would not take it seriously.
Yanli was indeed persuaded. He looked at his right claw hanging in front of his chest carefully and did not dare to act rashly.
Li Mingsheng shook his head helplessly. It seemed that it would be more reassuring if he kept an eye on him at all times.
He put down the sharp branch in his hand, walked to Yanli, picked up the small backpack, and then reached out to hug Yanli.
Yanli originally wanted to struggle, but was interrupted by Li Mingsheng's words "Don't move!" He obediently followed the other's movements, sat in the backpack, and was lifted up along with the backpack to Li Mingsheng's side.
After Li Mingsheng settled Yanli, he continued to dig the roots of the pond. The roots here were also very large, even larger than the ones they had found on the outskirts of Wugui Mountain before.
The black soil is loose and soft, easy to dig. Just a little digging will reveal a large bunch of big, round fruits.
Li Ming was afraid that he would be bored being alone, so he chatted with him while digging the roots of the pond.
They chatted and dug at the same time, and their work efficiency was much higher than before when Yanli was unconscious. Moreover, with one more person to talk to, the whole atmosphere was different. They dug a large basket of dangen in a relaxed and happy manner. Li Mingsheng carried the dangen on his back, and then carried the basket containing Yanli forward, intending to go back.
When the two came out of the foot of the mountain and onto the grassland, Yanli saw where they were. He stretched his round head out of the backpack and saw a large grassland. The grass on the grassland was lush and green, not high, only above the height of the soles of the shoes. There was a small river beside the grassland, but the river was not fast.
During this time, there were groups of strange beasts drinking water by the river.
Yanli looked at the levels of the strange beasts, which were not high, basically three to five stars. Although this was considered high for Yanli at the moment, they still had a Li Mingsheng!
"Can't you be a shorter backpack?" Yanli rubbed his neck with his left paw. He had just stretched it out and used all his strength, but he didn't hold on for long before his neck became sore and painful.
Li Mingsheng watched Yanli wake up. He didn't know if it was because he had become smaller or something else, but he would occasionally throw a tantrum. He seemed much more lively than before.
Except for the incident with the female that time, Yanli had never refuted what he said or commented on what he did. But it was different when he woke up today. He started to point fingers at her.
Li Mingsheng is very satisfied with the current mode of getting along. He was not very disgusted with it to begin with, and he acted mature and steady all day long, which made him less lively than he is now.
"Okay, okay. I'll make another one for you when I get back!" After saying that, he quickly touched Yanli's round head when he realized what was going on.
Li Mingsheng carried Yanli and Diangen on his back and followed the stairs he had dug earlier, climbing up step by step to the large platform at the entrance of the cave. Then he put Yanli down, put down the backpack, let him get out by himself, and no longer cared about Yanli.
He put the mud roots he had dug into the small cave he had opened earlier.
Yanli didn't care what Li Mingsheng was doing, but instead observed where he would live in the future.
He was standing on a stone platform that covered the entire cave entrance. The stone platform was very flat and large. Near the edge of the cave, Li Mingsheng had also placed a shelf with some green grass on it. Yanli could not recognize it.
The left and right sides of the platform were simply fenced off with bamboo. The fence was not too high. Yanli estimated that it should reach Li Mingsheng's waist.
He looked up and found that this place was very similar to where they had lived before, except that there were protruding stones on the top of the platform to protect it from wind and rain.
He looked into the distance again and found that the cave had a good view because of its high terrain. Yanli was very satisfied with his current living environment!
