Early the next morning, when Song Wen opened the door and came out, he found that the ground had turned into a vast expanse of whiteness. The snow was not thick, only a thin layer. However, the sky is a bit dark today, and it is estimated that it will fall again later. A snow falls.

Song Wen frowned. The temperature in Nanlu has always been relatively warm, but did the first snow come too early?It seems that what Elder Cui mentioned before, the current temperature seems to be getting colder every year is true. I only hope that the winter here will not be as severe as the North Sea, otherwise the people here will only live more difficultly.

"Oh--."

Seeing Song Wen come out, Emperor Penguin Ahen spread his wings and shook his neck, shaking off the melted water stains on his body, and greeted Song Wen.

Song Wen walked over and touched Ahen's head, "Good morning, Ahen."

"Oh."

A Hen happily rubbed Song Wen's palm, then took small steps to a small cement pond in the yard. There were many live fish in the pond, which was A Hen's food. Those who go out to fish in time will replenish fresh river fish in it, and Song Wen will also clean up the small pond frequently, and if the fish in it dies, they will be disposed of in advance to ensure that what Ahen eats is fresh and alive fish.

Song Wen glanced at Ahen, who was stretching his neck and staring at the small pond, thinking about which fish to have for breakfast, then walked away from home and walked towards the city wall.

He was holding a basket in his hand, which contained the bamboo rice porridge that had been boiled all night, and some freshly baked food. The quantity was so heavy that Song Wen had to change hands occasionally to carry it.

He is going to deliver breakfast to Yi. Although Yi came back a little late yesterday, he still has to go to the city wall to change guards with others in the middle of the night. Recently, there are always some cunning animals wandering around the city wall in the morning. The jackals who passed by were not afraid of the water, and could even cross their moat and run directly to the foot of the city wall.

If they sneak into the living area, not to mention those animals that have been raised in captivity, even those cubs that have not yet reached the moulting period, I am afraid that they may also be injured by jackals.

Song Wen felt a headache when he thought of this incident, and he couldn't be careless living here.

Before Song Wen reached the city wall, he heard a noisy sound from the top of the city. Several orc warriors were gathered together and pointed outside, because Song Wen couldn't hear clearly from a distance. What the hell are they talking about.

He took a few quick steps and climbed up to the city wall. Although most of Yi's attention was outside, as soon as Song Wen appeared, he was the first to spot Song Wen's figure. He pushed away Ah Que who was standing in front of him, and walked quickly Walking up to Song Wen, he took the heavy basket over.

"What's the matter?" Song Wen asked curiously.

Yi's expression was a bit complicated. He pulled Song Wen's wrist, led him to the edge of the city wall, pointed outside and said, "That wild species has come back again."

"Black bear?"

Song Wen looked in the direction Yi pointed, and he saw a tall and familiar figure on the opposite side of the moat, but besides the wild one, there were several familiar jackals, and the black bear was fighting with the jackal right now. The dogs fought together.

Song Wen frowned and looked at Yi beside him.

Yi told Song Wen what he saw in the morning, "Those jackals seemed to know a little about water, and they seemed to want to cross the river, but they were spotted by the wild species that just came back, and then they fought together. "

"You mean the black bear doesn't want the jackals to cross the river?"

"Ah."

Song Wen was a little puzzled, "Why did the black bear do this?" Even if it was to deal with those jackals trying to sneak up, it should be the business of the orc warriors.

Yi shrugged his shoulders. At that time, he threw the wild species directly into the territory of the big buteo tribe. They checked that area, and there were no traces of wild wolves. There is no need to worry that the black bear will be killed by wild wolves as soon as it leaves. As long as you walk a little further, the black bear can find a small piece of unowned wasteland, which it can occupy, or go directly to the center of the Southland along the road. Although there will be more danger there, at least there will be no need Fear of lack of prey and starvation.

It's just that Yi didn't expect that the black bear would come back to the territory of the Black Crow Clan and find their place of residence accurately. He doesn't know how the wild species remembered the route.

After a while, the news of the black bear's return spread throughout the entire residence. A harpy flapped its wings and landed on a city with few people, but he didn't stay for long. Then quietly left.

Song Wen looked at the back of Fatty leaving, and sighed secretly in his heart. Although Fatty's appearance was not much different from that of an adult harpy, in Song Wen's heart, he was just a girl less than one year old. cubs.

Even though the wild species is a male black bear, after all, it has eaten the flower tree cultivated by Ah Pang's harpy mother, and it has the mother's taste on her body. This alone is of great importance to Ah Pang attractiveness.

Although Fatty also knew that the black bear could not be his mother, emotionally, he still couldn't help but want to get close to her. This was one of the reasons why they let the black bear go. Leave the black bear where no pack of wild wolves have been.

The battle between the black bear and the jackal didn't last long. The jackal's fighting power is not weak, and with the cooperation of its companions, the black bear is not their opponent when attacking, but the black bear has thick skin and great strength. As long as it is photographed by those thick paws, the jackal can lie on the ground for most of the day without getting up.

The jackal's target wasn't the black bear, and he didn't want to fight the black bear. When he saw more and more people on the top of the city, he let out a howl, and called his companions to run back into the forest with their tails between their legs.

The black bear seemed to really want to hunt and kill those jackals, and followed them for a distance on all fours, but how could a bulky black bear catch up to the fast jackals? The edge of the forest lost the target.

The black bear was very angry. It stood upright, slapped its chest a few times with its bear paws, opened its mouth and howled loudly a few times, startling a few birds perched on the edge of the forest.

Probably because the mood stabilized a bit after venting, the black bear walked back awkwardly. It first looked up and glanced at the orcs surrounding it on the top of the city. He climbed a gentle slope, went down to the edge of the water, and washed his paws and body hair in the cold river water.

There were some dry blood stains on its hair, sticking together into little bunches, and its pair of bear claws were too short, so it simply climbed up to the shore where it couldn't reach, and rolled a few times on the spot on the thin snow on the ground. Now, the hair all over his body is thick black, even if it is stained with mud, it can't be seen where it is dirty.

Song Wen was a little confused, so just now the black bear ran to wash away the loneliness?

After the black bear wiped the blood from its fur, it sat down on the ground, and most of the dry weeds were crushed by it. It turned its head from side to side and looked around. The small animals in the wasteland escaped here during the summer floods. In addition, the temperature is getting colder day by day, and winter is coming soon. Except for the occasional few carnivorous rabbits who have dug a hole in the ground and look out, the whole wasteland has become extremely quiet.

The black bear raised its neck, opened its mouth wide, and made a few voices as if it was calling for its companions, "Aww." It just sounded a bit lonely and pitiful, as if it was abandoned here by someone.

Song Wen looked at the black bear screaming "Aww", "What is it doing?"

Came here all the way from the edge of the Dabi clan's territory, helped them drive away the jackals trying to cross the river, and then sat outside the city wall and screamed "Aww"?

It didn't look like he came back for revenge because he was caught by them before. It was a wild species that couldn't communicate. Even Song Wen couldn't guess what the other party's purpose was.

"It probably wants to find its own cub." Yi guessed.

"Cubs?" Song Wen wondered, "We haven't caught wild black bear cubs, have we?"

Yi raised his chin and nodded to the side. Song Wen turned his head and saw that the cheetah was squatting on the top of the wall, its eyes slowly becoming bloodshot. It stared motionlessly at the black bear outside, its paws unconsciously on the ground After scratching and pulling, the sharp nails left a shallow mark on the concrete floor. If it weren't for the high city wall and the moat full of water, the cheetah would rush down without hesitation and bite with its sharp teeth. Break the neck of a black bear.

"It's looking for Fatty."

Song Wen: "..."

But these are just Yi Yi's guesses, the black bears didn't intend to get close to the city wall, so they didn't forcefully go down to drive them away, but because there were black bears guarding here, the jackals who would come to the wasteland to harass them from time to time dared not come from here. out of the forest.

Fluttering white snow fell from the sky, as Song Wen guessed, there will be another snow today.

The steaming breakfast in the basket had become cold because it was too late to eat, and the others didn't stay on the wall for too long. Seeing that nothing had happened, they quickly dispersed to work in twos and threes, leaving only the orc warriors in charge of guarding. On the sidelines.

Yi didn’t know where to get a big leaf and put it on the top of Song Wen’s head. The autumn snow would melt on the skin soon. Ordinary orcs would get sick and catch a cold easily if they were drenched in snow for too long. Well, as an emperor penguin, Song Wen is not afraid of such a little cold snow, so only Yihui wants to take better care of him from time to time.

When leaving the city, Song Wen couldn't help but look back at the black bear outside again. The white snowflakes fell on its black fur. It was obvious that it didn't howl like before, but raised its head slightly to look at the snowflakes falling in the air , Occasionally sticking out the tongue to pick up a little bit, and then shrinking the neck from the cold.

Something flashed through Song Wen's mind.

Could it be that the wild black bear had absorbed the memories and emotions of the harpies, and that's why it recognized Fatty as its own cub?

And the reason why it drives away jackals is also to protect the cubs?
