Ye An

The rainwater hit the rocks, meandering and flowing along the gaps of different widths, extending to the entrance of the cave, hanging down a large curtain of misty water.

The drops of water fell to the ground and gathered into large and small puddles, tinkling.

When the rainwater gathers to a considerable extent, it will overflow the ground and flow down from the high place, like silver threads passing through the grass, flowing from the high ground into the raging river, blending into the river, and finally disappearing.

There are slender vines growing outside the cave, the vines are not as thick as a finger, but they have leaves with a diameter of more than ten centimeters.

The leaves are peach-shaped, the edges are very smooth, and the surface is covered with soft down, like duck feathers.

Bauhinia inspected a vine hanging from the entrance of the cave, and her eyes lit up immediately. She woke up the two sleeping women and pointed towards the entrance of the cave: "There are good things."

Women cannot speak, but can communicate with gestures and movements.Looking in the direction of Bauhinia's finger, he confirmed the type of vine. At the same time, his face showed joy, and he woke up several companions one after another.

They tried their best to keep their movements light and not make loud noises, but those resting in the cave were highly vigilant hunters. When they rummaged through tools, they were startled by the sound one after another, their ears moved, and their eyes opened quickly.

"What's going on, is it dangerous?" Jason shook his neck twice, his joints creaking.Seeing the actions of the women, he couldn't help but ask questions.

"There is no danger. There are good things outside the cave." Zijing picked up a short knife, cut a strip from the hem of his clothes, neatly wrapped it around his left hand, and tied a slipknot on the back of his hand.

The women made the same movement, wrapped one hand, and each picked up a short knife and dagger.Without pockets, tie the coat together and use it instead of a container.

Ye An was awakened by the sound, and when he opened his eyes, his mind was still a little confused.Putting one hand on his forehead, pinching the corners of his forehead, and meeting a pair of familiar eyes, he realized that he was actually resting on Xiao Yun's lap instead of resting against the wall as before.

The red squirrel lay on Ye An's chest, rolled its body into a ball, and covered its body with its big fluffy tail. It rose and fell with Ye An's breathing, and the two strands of long hair on the tips of its ears shook slightly, looking very cute.

Xiao Yun leaned against the rock wall, propped up one long leg, put one arm on his knee, and laid the other leg flat, letting Ye An rest on his pillow.The cold palm covered the back of Ye An's hand, the fingertips brushed against his joints, and then retracted as if nothing had happened, everything was very natural, as if it was done unintentionally.

Ye An withdrew his hand, shook his fingers a few times, and closed his eyes again.When he was fully conscious, he sat up with his arms propped up and looked in the direction of the sound.

"What happened?" Ye An asked curiously.Judging by the appearance of the crowd, it doesn't look like there is any danger outside the cave.

"It's not dangerous, there should be other discoveries." Xiao Yun said, "Sleep for a while?"

"Don't sleep."

Ye An stood up and stretched his waist. When he got up, he didn't pay attention. The red squirrel suddenly fell and fell directly into Xiao Yun's arms.

Out of instinct, Xiao Yun grabbed the little furry guy halfway.

The red squirrel woke up because of Ye An's actions, and found that the warmth had disappeared, and the surroundings were icy, and immediately let out a cry of protest.He didn't scratch Xiao Yun, but jumped away after struggling in disgust, crawled up Ye An's calf, quickly climbed onto his shoulder, and rolled himself into a ball again.

Ye An looked at the squirrel, then at Xiao Yun, and twitched the corners of his mouth in embarrassment.Patting the furry little guy with his backhand is a comfort.He nodded to Xiao Yun again, expressing his apology.

This is his carelessness.

He's used to Xiao Yun's body temperature, which doesn't mean squirrels are fine too.With the habit of squirrels, it suddenly seemed to be wrapped in ice, so it would be strange not to run away.

Fortunately, the embarrassment did not last long, and the sound from the cave quickly attracted the attention of the two.

Zijing and the others had already made preparations. They walked out of the cave with short knives and daggers, found a suitable position, and climbed up the rock in the rain.

When everyone first arrived at this rocky area, they were busy hiding from the rain. After making sure that there were no mutant beasts and poisonous plants, they quickly entered the cave without doing much searching, so they naturally missed these vines.

This kind of vine is very special, it grows in the crevices of rocks, and most of the time it is buried by gravel and soil, only a few tentacles and curled leaves protrude from the crevices, it is inconspicuous at all.

Only when flowering and spreading seeds, the slender vines will grow rapidly, pushing out the cracks in the rocks and spreading out the green leaves.

Bauhinia and the others have seen this kind of plant before, and know that their flowers and fruits are good things, so naturally they will not let them go easily.

Regardless of the heavy rain and the slippery stone surface, the women climbed up one after another, and Ye An also walked out of the cave, and found that the originally bare stone surface was now covered with dark green and dark brown vines.

The vines are competing to extend, and the leaves are constantly spreading, overlapping each other, competing for each other's stretching space.

The slender tentacles swayed in the wind and rain, and the fluffy leaves spread out in a large area, soon occupying a large rocky belt, and began to extend to the ground.

This kind of vine is very different from what Ye An has seen on the isolated island, especially the layers of leaves, which are densely pressed together without leaving any gaps, forming a natural protective cover that cannot even penetrate rainwater.

The leaves block the rain, and the space below them is supported by the petioles and long whiskers.

Small white and pink flowers bloom in the space, connected in series, and the fragrance is overwhelming.

Each flower is only the size of a thumb, shaped like a morning glory.The stamens exuding a sweet smell protrude from the center, the taste is rich but not too strong, and it smells very comfortable.

The women cut off the vines with short knives and opened a passage.

Bauhinia took the lead, fixed itself on the rock, and put its tightly wrapped hands under the vine to take the blooming flowers.Be very careful in the process to avoid the fluff on the back of the leaves.These hairs look soft, but they can penetrate into the human skin, making it painful and itchy, and it is very difficult to remove.

"careful!"

A woman slipped on her feet and was about to slide off the rock, Ye An rushed forward quickly, trying to catch her.

The woman is very experienced and is very used to dealing with such emergencies. She sacrificed the dagger when she was sliding down, and stuck the dagger into the crevice of the rock to stabilize herself.

Before Ye An finished speaking, she was out of danger.

Seeing Ye An below, the woman thanked her with a smile, indicating that she was fine, and then cut off another vine to harvest the clusters of flowers hidden below.

As more and more vines were cut off, the scent that had been covered up before began to waft away.Despite being sheltered by rain, it still attracts many small animals and insects.The red squirrel lying on Ye An's shoulder also became energetic, with its ears pricked up and its little paws hugged, its emotions conveyed excitement, and it seemed that it was very interested in these flowers.

The women moved quickly, filled their pockets with ease, and threw them down from high places.

The people waiting below were already prepared, and opened their arms to catch the bag before it hit the ground.

Jason moved the fastest, holding three bags by himself.It's just that the strength was not mastered well, the arms were too hard, and the petals in the bag were crushed a lot under the squeeze.

Broken petals flow transparent juice, broken stamens scatter pollen, and a small amount of nectar flows from the bottom.In less than a moment, Jason was covered in the scent of flowers and honey. Even standing in the rain, the scent could not be reduced by half.

Seeing Jason's situation, the hunters immediately reduced their strength to prevent themselves from becoming fragrant.At the same time, his facial features were distorted due to suppressed laughter, and his appearance was very strange.

Jason put down his pocket, raised his arm to smell it, and rubbed it vigorously a few times in the rain. Instead of reducing the scent, it became stronger.

A strong man with a height of nearly two meters, his arms are thicker than the thighs of ordinary people, with a shiny bald head and a face that can scare a child into tears, but his body is full of flowers.

This kind of contrast is rare to see, not to mention the hunters around, even Xiao Yun has a strange expression, looking at the fragrant Jason, the corners of his mouth can't help but rise.

"Laugh if you want to laugh, what are you holding back for!" Jason said in a low voice, while waving his fists twice, "I'll let you laugh enough today, and see you at the Colosseum when we return to the city!"

Now that Jason has let go, the hunters have no scruples. Who is not a regular visitor to the Colosseum?

For a moment, everyone was laughing up and down, Ye An couldn't hold back, put one hand on Xiao Yun's shoulder, and almost burst into tears.
