Qi Le

Realizing that the kitten was in danger, Qi Le was really angry, threw away the ant corpse, and turned into a raccoon cat in an instant, with sharp front claws popping out, roaring and blowing fur.

If these guys dare to hurt the kitten, he must make them look good!

"Meow!"

Seeing Qi Le's return, Qi Ning seemed to have a backbone, his voice became louder, and he kept baring his teeth at the nearest squirrel.It's just that it's too small and has a baby voice, so it doesn't really have much deterrent effect.

The squirrels had the advantage in numbers, and their force value was not low. If they launched a surprise attack, Qining would die immediately.

What Qi Le can do is to raise the hairs all over his body, threaten the group of uninvited guests in front of him, and let them understand that if they dare to move their claws easily, the consequences will be quite serious.

Facing the threat of the cat father, the squirrels could be called "calm". They neither attacked Qining nor left just then. Instead, they huddled together, covered their heads with their big tails, and yelled a few times in a low voice. Sound, looks quite funny.

"Meow!"

Unable to guess the other party's intentions, and the kitten was surrounded by the other party again, Qi Le was so anxious that he arched his back and swung his claws fiercely, hitting the water pouring into the spaceship, causing a splash of water.

The squirrels moved closer, obviously not wanting to further anger Qi Le.

In the end, the biggest one came out first, took out a crystal nucleus from its bulging cheeks, held it in its claws, and yelled at Qi Le twice.

Qi Le frowned and shook his beard.

What does it mean?

Due to the accumulation of water on the ground, it was enough to submerge the crystal nucleus, so the squirrel took local materials, turned over an arc-shaped ant shell, put the crystal nucleus on it, and pushed it to Qi Le along the water.

Qi Le looked at the crystal nucleus, then at the squirrel, and a flash of light flashed in his mind: Could it be that this is an alternative version of the accommodation fee?

Seeing that Qi Le's expression was loose, the squirrels knew something was going on, and the leader immediately yelled twice. The squirrels moved quickly, one by one, they took out their cheeks, took out crystal nuclei of different colors, and piled them all up in front of Qi Le.

But in the blink of an eye, crystal nuclei of different sizes and colors piled up into hills.

Qi Le jumped onto the ant carcass above the water, looked at the crystal nuclei piled up in front of him, glanced at the squirrel with clasped claws, and asked, "Do you want to live here?"

The squirrels nodded in unison.

"Is this the room fee?"

The squirrels nodded again.

"Promise not to hurt my son?" Qi Le pointed at Qi Ning.

The squirrels nodded desperately and even raised their paws to show that they would never lie.

They are not savage rats, they know that Qi Le is the only way to ensure that the spaceship is watertight, and if they want to stay overnight, they will naturally give corresponding compensation.

Seeing the other party's sincere attitude, Qi Le weighed it carefully and chose to accept these "tenants".

"It's fine to stay here, but I need help." Qi Le pointed to the army ants on the ground, and gestured with his claws, "I know you can't help with things outside. However, those in the spaceship should be fine. Use this to spread on the ground, Raise it high and pave it like this."

Qi Le said while making gestures.

The squirrels listened carefully and communicated quickly. The leading squirrel barked twice, and all the squirrels started together, biting with their mouths and moving with their claws.

During the period, Qi Le retrieved several ant corpses and handed them over to the squirrels.

Ant shells are used as building materials, and ant meat is also not wasted.Although it has been said for a few days and has been soaked in water, the taste is not as good as before. Fortunately, it has not deteriorated. As long as it is handled properly, it can be preserved and eaten a few times full.

The two sides cooperate, and the speed of work is much faster.

As the accumulated water in the spacecraft was gradually drained, the cabin became significantly warmer.

Qi Ning lay obediently on the metal chair, licking his paws while watching Qi Le and the squirrels rushing in and out.Meowing a few times to help, Qi Le licked her chin reassuringly.

"Hey, you don't need to do it."

Qi Le was afraid that Qi Ning would get sick, so naturally he refused to let him into the water.

The kitten was a little frustrated, but in the end he nodded obediently, curled up his tail, and rubbed against Qi Le twice.

Squirrels have a unique method of quickly drying ant meat.In this way, the storage period will become longer.

Because the flood came so fast, the burrow was submerged almost overnight, and the food stored before could not be taken out at all. These army ants became a rare ration, so naturally they had to be disposed of properly.

Knowing that Qi Le watched the corpse of the strange beast float away in front of his eyes, the squirrels grabbed the ant shell and opened their mouths in disbelief.

Prodigal, I've never seen such a prodigal!

"Stay, you can eat!"

One of the largest squirrels opened its mouth.

Perhaps the direction of evolution is different. These squirrels are not exotic animals, but they also deviate from the original species.Adult squirrels can communicate with native populations, but cannot change form.

This form of evolution has pros and cons.

Compared with birds of prey that are difficult to reproduce, their fertility is quite amazing, second only to house mice and hamsters.Compared with alien beasts, they have higher intelligence, they will not rely on instinct alone to survive, and they can ensure that the group will not be eliminated for a long time.

However, because of this evolutionary direction, they are not recognized by the original population, nor are they accepted by the alien beasts.To be honest, the position is really embarrassing.

"Can you talk?" Qi Le was licking Qi Ning's ear, when he heard the squirrel speak, he turned his eyes curiously, and his tail moved twice.

"Yes." The red squirrel nodded, his words were not smooth, but he could express his meaning clearly.

"The flood was huge, our burrow was the first to be flooded, and soon it was the turn of other ethnic groups..."

Said that Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived.

Before the red squirrel could finish speaking, there was a commotion outside the spaceship.Through the entrance and exit left by Qi Le, several round figures squeezed in one after another.

"Black pine!"

Seeing who was coming, the red squirrel let out a scream, and the fellows who were busy carrying the ant shell quickly gathered together to issue a sharp warning to the latecomers.

"Red Oak, our burrow is flooded." The black-fur squirrel shook its tail, combed the hair on its chest, looked past the red squirrel, and looked at Qi Le, who was lying on the metal chair.

Obviously, they knew who the "true owner" of the spacecraft was.

Just now Qi Le was busy in the rain, climbing up and down, these squirrels were watching.It's not that there is no way, and they will not set foot in other people's lairs.

Qi Le yawned lazily, confirming that there was no rain on the kitten's body, the body temperature began to rise, and he was very satisfied with his results.In order to maintain Qi Ning's body temperature, she simply rolled him into her arms.

"If you want to stay, you can."

Now that he is taking over the next batch of tenants, he doesn't mind a few more.

Qi Le was alone, so it was impossible to drive away all the squirrels.These are meat-eating masters, and if they are in a hurry, there is no guarantee that they will do anything.Furthermore, the few little squirrels lying in his mother's arms moved him even more.

Finally, these squirrels belong to different species, and they are on guard against each other, which can maintain the "balance" in the spacecraft to the greatest extent.

"One crystal nucleus per person, there is really no way to help repair the cabin, build a bed or store food."

Such a request is not excessive.

The squirrels nodded.

They lacked everything except the crystal nucleus.

Soon, the crystal nuclei in front of Qi Le piled up into a hill, which tended to keep rising.

What does it feel like to be rich overnight?

There are only two words to describe it: cool!

Qi Le was just a little flustered, and suddenly remembered the hunting grounds and alien races that Yas had mentioned, and the haze immediately passed over his head, the joy quickly dissipated, and his mood became heavy again.

It rained non-stop, and the flood never receded.

More and more squirrels gathered in the spaceship, and the planned bed was increased to three layers, with movable partitions between each layer to ensure that each population has its own space.

The cracks in the roof were filled bit by bit, and the bulkheads were repaired as much as possible.

From the outside, the spaceship is full of patches, which is ugly.However, it is a blessing in misfortune to have such a comfortable shelter in the flood, and not a single tenant complains.

Many squirrels even discussed privately that when the flood receded, they could collect some materials and "decorate" their burrows again.Not to mention anything else, just this kind of bed made of ant shells, covered with a layer of fluff, is definitely the best place to raise children.

There are a lot of things to be busy, Qi Le and the squirrels take turns guarding the entrance and exit, dragging back any usable materials immediately, especially if there is food in reserve.

The largest number is still ants.

What surprised Qi Le was that there were not only army ants in it, but also a large number of fire ants and spear ants.This made him a little uncertain about how many ant colonies were nearby.

The squirrels were overjoyed.

More than a dozen red squirrels and gray squirrels were busy biting open the ant shell, and took out the plump ant meat. They swept their big tails, and the moisture in the ant meat was dried, giving off a faint smell of burnt.

Qi Le sniffled, out of curiosity, he jumped to a red squirrel and studied her tail carefully.

"indecent!"

The red squirrel let out a cry and quickly hid behind another squirrel.The squirrels looked at Qi Le warily, their eyes full of accusations, as if they were looking at a pervert.

Qi Le widened his eyes and pointed at himself, he?satyr?

The squirrels nodded solemnly.

Qi Le frowned.

He's a cat, a cat!

What kind of cat would insult a squirrel?

Different races, different aesthetics, eight poles can't fight, okay? !

After a moment of stalemate, the squirrels were still alert.

"I just want to know, how do you dry these."

Qi Le was very depressed. He stretched out his paws and plucked the slightly yellowed ant flesh twice, explaining: "I don't mean anything else. I apologize if I caused a misunderstanding."

"So it is." The squirrels breathed a sigh of relief.

A red squirrel stepped forward, turned sideways, and raised its tail.As he moved, the hairs of the tail rubbed against each other, making a crackling sound, and a little spark flashed.

Miraculously, no matter how sparks flashed, the hair never burned.

Qi Le studied for a long while, but still couldn't understand the reason behind it.Wanting to stretch out his paws, the words "curiosity killed the cat" floated in his mind, and finally restrained the impulse.

Still, these Mars inspired him.

"Tell you something."

Qi Le shook his beard, looked at the squirrel with a smile, and explained this and that.

Squirrel's eyes were wide open, with a very strange expression on his face, he and Qi Le looked at each other for a long while, but in the end they didn't refuse.

"Here?" Squirrel pointed to the metal chair.

"Yes." Qi Le nodded.

Two squirrels jumped onto the metal chair, their big tails spread out, and swept across the chair a few times.Soon, the metal chair was no longer icy cold. Qining stepped on it for a try, meowed from the comfort, turned over and rolled.

"Thank you."

Qi Le sincerely thanked her, and rolled with Qi Ning.

Is there an automatic heater?

The squirrels were puzzled at first, and they stretched out their paws to touch it, and suddenly realized.Realizing the benefits of doing so, I climbed to the newly built beds to test.

Unexpectedly, the ant shell can conduct heat.

A squirrel lay down and let out a contented sigh.More squirrels join in brushing their tails.

The chipmunk who can't "heat" looks at others enviously, and finally shamelessly squeezes together with the black squirrel who has a good relationship.

Outside the spaceship, the rain gradually weakened, and the dark clouds gradually dissipated, revealing a ray of blue.

In the dark universe, the space is suddenly distorted, and a huge vortex appears.After the vortex, three spaceships with the logo of the military academy pierced through the darkness and appeared on the edge of the galaxy.

Blue Star District [-]

Siyaer sat in the command chair and saw the student information appearing on the screen, with an "unexpected" expression on his face.

Saunders leaned back in his chair, hands crossed behind his head, long legs resting on the console, drawing a disapproving glance from Gaspers.

Uncomfortable being seen, Sanders twitched the corners of his mouth, but in the end he retracted his two long legs.

Gaspas turned around, looked at Shial who had been silent all this time, and asked, "The team that went out sent back news that they found a native ant colony in the hunting ground. Do you want to try to expel it?"

"No need." Xial leaned back in his chair and said casually, "One exception is enough. If you really can't get out of the hunting ground, the first clan had better choose another heir."

Sanders grinned and whistled.

Gaspers shook his head, said no more, and turned back to the console.Pale fingertips touched the light screen, and the barrier on the border of District Eleven finally started to activate.
