In the Water

Wen Meng couldn't care about anything else, removed the branches blocking the entrance, and ran out.

At the very bottom of the cave's branches, there was a small opening. It was clear that Little White had left through here.

The girl ran ahead,

A small black snake, swimming swiftly, followed behind

Outside the cave was a forest, with particularly dense weeds in one direction.

Wen Meng struggled to push aside the weeds, cutting through the thorns and brambles.

With her personality, she would never choose this path.

The fear of snakes, insects, rats, and ants can be said to be deeply ingrained in one's bones.

But now the situation is urgent, and this road is the shortest.

When people are driven by intense emotions, they become exceptionally courageous.

Anyone who has ever lost a pet can understand the intertwined feelings of anxiety, pain, and despair.

As long as the pet can come back, no price is too high to pay.

Especially since there had been conflicts with the pet before,

Then this painful regret will be magnified several times over.

Even if it was just for one day.

Wen Meng had already considered Xiao Bai her own baby.

So, when Little White was lost, the one who suffered the most was her.

Fortunately, once the contract is bound, as long as the beast master does not break it, they can still sense the general location of the disaster beast.

Cold, damp, piercing..

Xiaobai's feelings flowed in Wen Meng's palm.

Where did it go, could it have encountered some danger?

Wen Meng's heart pounded like a drum,

Please, don't let anything happen to you..

Quickened his pace, heading deeper into the dense forest.

Once out of the forest, the view suddenly opened up.

A towering mountain came into view.

In front of the great mountain, the spring water cascades down, gathering into a deep, emerald pool.

The backdrop was a waterfall cascading down.

On the shattered stones in the pond, there was a small white figure.

If you don't look closely, you really can't recognize it.

That white figure was furry.

It faced away from the pond, its limbs slightly bent, and its fluffy tail naturally hanging down

A dot on the water's surface.

The head turned slightly, not daring to move too much, for fear of disturbing the colorful fish in the water.

But I still want to see if there's a catch.

Seeing this scene, tears welled up in Wen Meng's eyes.

However, these were tears of joy.

Great, Xiao Bai is fine.

And not only is it fine, but it's also learning to fish like a kitten?

What a little fool!

Made her so worried.

When you catch it later, make sure to give it a good spanking.

Wen Meng slowly walked over.

"Xiao Bai!"

She called out softly.

Xiaobai's ears were very sharp, and he immediately recognized Wen Meng's voice.

But it is now in a state of running away from home.

Being taken back like this is too humiliating.

Moreover, it did not consider the place where this woman was to be home!

It doesn't want to go back!

Xiao Bai instinctively wanted to escape,

As long as it stretches its limbs, this woman will never catch up to it!

But it forgot that it was now in the middle of the emerald pond.

It took two steps, then with a splash, fell into the water.

The body is sinking.

Why does the harder you struggle, the faster your body sinks?

But this is not the most terrifying part.

It felt a terrible suction in the water, pulling it towards the bottom of the waterfall.

Near the waterfall, there is a massive whirlpool that devours the water!

"Waaah waaah!—" (Help, save me!)

Xiao Bai let out a mournful wail.

But as soon as it opened its mouth, water rushed into its throat.

It deeply regretted,

Why leave the cave?

Why try to lure those colorful little fish on the water's surface?

Why did it run away when this woman called it?

It's about to die..

A few more gulps of water, and Little White no longer had the strength to wail.

At the very moment it lost consciousness,

A soft arm embraced its small body.

Hold it in your arms.

Gently adjusted its little head's position, allowing it to comfortably rest on her shoulder.

Wen Meng thought she would learn to swim during the summer vacation,

It might be the best decision she has ever made in her life.

I didn't expect that in just two short days, it would come in handy twice.

They even saved lives!

She held Little White with one arm, letting its head emerge from the water

The other hand paddled, along with the feet kicking, swimming towards the shore.

Under a clump of bushes by the shore, a pile of clothes lay scattered.

The white shirt uniform of the Imperial Star Noble High School,

A matching brown and yellow plaid skirt,

The bundled white socks looked like two golf balls from a distance.

There was also a pair of black bespoke leather shoes lying askew.

It was obvious that their owner was a girl.

And when the girls take them off,

Very hurried and rushed.

Right next to this pile of things,

A slender black figure wandered back and forth.

It curiously sniffed around the pile of clothes.

It was definitely her scent.

I really like it.

After sniffing for a long time,

Xiao Hei simply plopped down on the white shirt and refused to move.

After Wen Mengyou came ashore,

The first thing she saw was the little black cat lying on her clothes.

Little Black was a bit puffed up with anger.

"Hiss hiss hiss—" (Did you forget something?)

Forget to take me with you!

Little Black was still very small, and if she wasn't careful, Wen Meng would leave him behind.

Wen Meng felt slightly apologetic.

She was truly overwhelmed with anxiety just now and really didn't notice that Little Black had followed along.

Wen Meng placed Xiao Bai on the ground.

Xiaobai had swallowed too much water and was unconscious.

But there are still vital signs.

Wen Meng wasn't sure if wolves could swim, but the wolf-like Bai'e definitely couldn't

When someone drowns, you need to expel the water from their windpipe.

I wonder if chalk is the same.

Meng Wen learned how to perform drowning first aid when she was in the school Red Cross.

Now, since there's no other way, we might as well give it a try.

Even though these are calamity beasts with immense divine power, capable of turning human planets upside down.

But when they were young, they were surprisingly fragile.

Perhaps this is what they call the Achilles' heel of the strong.

In the current social atmosphere of the Star Realm, most disaster beasts probably never live to see adulthood.

Wen Meng turned Xiao Bai over onto its back.

It lay on its back with its limbs in the air, somewhat resembling a little pig.

After compressing the chest a few times, you need to give it a breath.

Performing CPR on a wolf?

Wen Meng frowned slightly, but she didn't hesitate for long. She bent down.

suddenly, between her rosy lips and Xiao Bai's mouth,

A coil of mosquito repellent appeared.

The little black disc curled up into a ball, sealing the wolf's mouth tightly.

Wen Meng: "..."

"Hissss——!!!" (No kissing)

I have a feeling they're up to no good!

I haven't figured out exactly why yet.

Absolutely not!

Little Black was extremely depressed.

It didn't understand, wasn't this wolf charmer just someone who fell into the water and drank too much of it?

Is it really that fragile?! Huh?

Playing dead?

Little Black didn't know that it was the master of the great marsh.

Nature can move freely in the water, controlling all water systems.

But chalk won't do.

Therefore, it naturally believed that Bai'e was pretending to be weak to gain their mother's sympathy.

Seeing Little Black in this state, Wen Meng didn't know what to say.

Simply say nothing,

She prepared to take Little Black away.

But then Little Black immediately used its tail to slap Little White's throat.

Wen Meng's pupils quaked.

You hit it again?

It's already like this, and you're still hitting it..

Wen Meng really couldn't bear it, but she didn't want to yell at Xiao Hei either.

Fortunately, Little Black just patted it once and then left on its own.

It stood up, its eyes fixed intently on the little white figure lying on the ground.

Wen Meng cupped Xiao Bai's head in her palm, trying to help it breathe easier.

Suddenly, Little White began to cough violently.

The voice was also like that of a little puppy,

"Cough, cough, cough—"

Then, a few mouthfuls of water were spat out from the wolf's mouth.

It was Little Black who controlled the water in Little White's throat, making it flow, surge, and finally forcing it to spit it out.

So easy!

This was its first attempt to control water, and it didn't expect to succeed.

[Ding! Disaster Beast Black Anaconda Awakens Water Elemental Power]

[This ability will continuously strengthen as the disaster beast grows]

The little orange figure was not by Wen Meng's side, but its voice echoed in her ear.

It seems there is no mistake; this system indeed resides in her mind.

Wen Meng temporarily had no mood to study superpowers.

What I care about is Xiaobai's health.

She gently picked up the little white kitten and stroked its tiny head.

The little white wolf's long white fur was completely soaked in the pool, curling into a ball and sticking to its skin.

Make it look not like a little wolf, but like a puppy drenched by the heavy rain.

Little White weakly opened its round green eyes,

Facing Wen Meng, its triangular eyes could no longer exert any pressure.

The wind was cold against the skin, but the woman's embrace was scorching.

Was it into such an embrace that it threw itself in its dying moments?

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Wen Meng's voice was gentle and sweet, causing its little heart to tremble softly.

Xiao Bai suddenly felt like crying; the defenses of his heart crumbled and gave way under this tenderness.

Chalk knew that he could never leave the woman in front of him.

"Hissss—"

The black strip-like object swam upwards, circled around, and wrapped around Wen Meng's slender waist, as if tying a three-dimensional belt on her.

Then, the remaining part reached her collarbone.

Xiao Hei hissed threateningly at Xiao Bai in Wen Meng's arms.

It couldn't stop Wen Meng from holding this seductive creature, nor could it strangle it while it was weak.

I can only warn it to behave.

Recognize your own identity.

As long as Ben Hei is around, she will always put me first.

And you will always be second best!!

"Hiss hiss hiss—" (Call me brother!)

But Little Black didn't expect that Little White would howl twice and turn his head,

Don't look at it at all.

When Wen Meng returned to the cave once again, she felt on the verge of collapse.

First, a jungle adventure, then a furious dive into the rapids,

Even primitive humans didn't have this much physical activity.

The most important thing is that once the constantly tense nerves relax,

The body will repay the energy borrowed in advance.

Wen Meng's current feeling could be summed up in one word: exhausted.

If I had to add one more, it would be hunger.

Fortunately, there was still some food in the backpack, so I could fill my stomach for now.

But as soon as she entered the cave, the sight inside gave her quite a shock.

Is this still her home?!

Where did these three Christmas trees come from?!

Fortunately, the cave was very high, so even with three trees growing, they did not touch the top.

It was called a Christmas tree because it was adorned with red and green decorations.

The flashlight's beam shone, radiating a dazzling brilliance.

The festive atmosphere was thick.

In fact, the shapes of the three trees are quite different.

Wen Meng walked to the first tree.

Brown, oval-shaped fruits, about the size of a hand, hung from the tree.

She picked one from the tree.

I feel like this one is edible.

Took a bite,

Soft, with a wheat aroma, and full of chewiness,

Bread?!

[Congratulations, you have discovered a new plant—Breadfruit Tree]

While eating, Wen Meng called up the system interface and noticed a dictionary-like icon had appeared in the lower right corner.

The breadfruit tree has already been recorded in it.

What is the second one?

The tree was laden with clusters of black and red fruits,

The texture is hard, much like the glass marbles I played with as a child?

As Wen Meng approached, she felt a wave of anxiety.

This thing seems a bit dangerous.

Congratulations! You have discovered a new plant—The Angry Gatling Pea

Wen Meng checked the description in the illustrated guide.

Sure enough, it was a weapon.

This fruit, when subjected to a massive force impact, will explode and release tear-inducing substances, causing temporary blindness to those attacked.

Getting too close might also hurt yourself.

It seems very suitable for slingshot-like ranged weapons.

The fruit of the third tree,

Wen Meng actually recognized it at a glance.

She couldn't believe it,

How could it be this thing???
