In the days of surviving in the fairy forest

The four studious caterpillars were placed by Rick in the bushes not far from the tree hole.

At the height of the moon, Rick was so sleepy that he could barely open his eyes, pawed his face, yawned lazily, curled up into a ball and fell asleep peacefully.

Ah Li was holding the newly acquired white silk backpack, jumping up and down with joy, and was excited for a while, until sleepy hit, and then he came to Rick's side, lifted the fox tail to cover himself, dazed When he fell asleep, his paws were still hooked to his small backpack.

In the next few days, a fox and a mouse ran around the red pine forest, collecting pine nuts, catching rabbits, and practicing tree climbing during the day, and went to the bushes to catch caterpillars in the evening.

Unlike Rick's tree-climbing course, which made no progress, thanks to the help of the backpack, the two can return home with a full load every day. In less than half a week, they have piled up hills of pine nuts in the tree hole, and dried caterpillars that are durable. It was also successfully produced after burning countless caterpillars.

In the process of catching caterpillars, Rick's "spinning caterpillar labor army" gradually grew, and there were more than 20 of them who refused to leave after learning the weaving technique.

After coming into contact with a large number of silkworms, Rick discovered that not all caterpillars have the same silk threads. Some caterpillars have elastic threads, some caterpillars have extremely sticky threads, and some caterpillars have silk threads that are as sharp as blades.

Rick found a variety of small stones and paved them in a rectangular shape, layered with sticky caterpillar thread, and finally found a large and thin stone slab to cover the top, and then made a simple small stone box—this box is specially used for It is used to store the dried caterpillars and dried rabbit legs that Rick roasted with flames. Since the two have been catching caterpillars non-stop recently, most of them are currently full.

"Let the caterpillars make their own boxes to hold the same kind," Rick silently complained about this, "I suddenly feel that I am so cruel."

Squirrel Ali couldn't understand Rick's occasional modern humanism. He just circled around the stone box excitedly, took out the dried caterpillars in the box, counted them, and scratched his paws to figure out what they were doing. Time can save a whole winter rations.

Just when the two little ones were full of energy and were about to fill the tree hole with jerky worm meat, dried rabbit leg meat and various pine nuts and fruits, a new accident happened unexpectedly——

——A new overlord has appeared in the red pine forest.

Due to the dense growth of trees in the red pine forest, the unpleasant-smelling needles are not on the diet of most herbivorous animals. Elk, sheep, cattle, etc. seldom set foot on them, and the active ones are often small herbivores such as leg rabbits and spores. Or a carnivore, Rick doesn't panic when he fights it.

Therefore, after entering the red pine forest, although Rick would still pay attention to his surroundings, he would relax more than in other places.

While Ali was flying around collecting pine nuts, Rick was standing under the tree, concentrating on practicing tree climbing skills.

At that time, he had just eaten a half-legged rabbit, his belly was round, and he was in a good mood. Looking at the tall trees in front of him that had climbed hundreds of times but still slid down halfway, he suddenly had a plan.

Taking a few steps back, he bent his legs to gather strength, and lunged forward. His body was still in the air, he opened his mouth and spit out a fireball. He slammed his right paw on the tree trunk, just stepping on a small pit created by the flames. So he jumped up lightly and firmly grasped a thick branch at the bottom of the red pine tree.

Although it is still far from learning how to climb a tree, it is already Rick's best achievement in recent days.

He hung on the tree excitedly, with his tail up, and he turned his head and shouted, "Ah Li! Look! I'm climbing up!"

Ah Li, who was picking pine nuts not far away, looked over when he heard the words, and the smile on his face turned into panic before he could react. Before he could react, the shadow that had been lurking under the tree for a long time suddenly jumped out, tearing at the fox with sharp teeth. Bite away.

When the wind came, Rick was already aware of the danger.He suddenly let go of his paws and jumped off the branch. He rolled several times on the ground before barely mitigating the impact. He hid behind the tree and looked ahead vigilantly.

After seeing the behemoth in front of him clearly, his heart suddenly felt cold.

The huge beast squatted on the ground, its curly tail longer than its body hanging down its side, staring at him with gloomy eyes.

Black spots are regularly dotted on the yellow-brown fur, and the intimidating aura carries invisible coercion. The sharp canine teeth are about half a meter long. When he got up and walked towards him, it seemed that the ground was trembling.

Rick paused for two seconds before realizing that he was shaking.

The tiger walked up to him unhurriedly, and its sharp claws popped out, obviously taking the fox in front of it as its own.

Rick took a deep breath, and with a puff, spit out the sparks all over the tiger's face.

Suddenly frightened, the tiger staggered and took a step back, scratching its face with its claws and extinguishing the tiger's beard that was almost burnt.When he came back to his senses and looked angrily at the lawless fox, the fox had a strange brown thing on its head and had already run a long distance.

"Go to the right! Go to the right!" Squirrel Ali, who slipped to the branch above his head while the tiger wasn't paying attention, and wanted to distract the tiger, but was almost hit by Rick's indiscriminate flame attack, yelled loudly, pulling the fox's ears, " Go to the crevice we found earlier!"

Rick exerted all his strength and almost ran out of an afterimage, but the size of the tiger was more than ten times larger than that of the fox, and the distance covered by one step was extremely different. The few seconds he finally won Due to the time difference, the tiger chased him to a level in two or three steps.

The safe rock crevice was too far away, and there was no place to hide nearby. Rick looked back at the tiger that was getting closer, gritted his teeth, and rushed up the tree.

He moved his four claws dexterously, jumping from one branch to another, and occasionally lost his footing in the middle, the flame ball had been thrown out at the right time, and it was burned into pits one after another, supporting the fox to climb to the highest tree. place.

"Wait," the fox who had just breathed a sigh of relief suddenly realized, "Can tigers climb trees?"

The squirrel grabbed the fox's fur tightly, his voice trembling: "I remember it seems to be..."

One fox and one mouse tensed up immediately.

The two lowered their heads tremblingly and looked down, and saw the tiger's eyes were fierce, its sharp claws sunk deep into the tree, and it had already climbed nearly half the distance.

The next moment, the tiger stepped on a thick branch with its paws, and was about to pounce upwards, when the branch snapped and broke from the bottom.The tiger, unable to dodge in time, was slammed under the tree, raising a cloud of flying dust.

"So it should just be..."

"……too fat?"

The fox and the squirrel sang together, and the tiger under the tree was so angry that it scratched its claws vigorously.

The third attempt to climb the tree failed. The tiger roared and simply crouched under the tree and refused to leave.

Rick frowned, and looked at the sky worriedly—the sun was setting, and it was getting late. If he waited any longer, the way home might be very dangerous.

"Alright," Ali the squirrel patted him on the head, "It's fine to stay in the tree tonight. There is a tiger guarding below, and no one dares to catch us."

"This tiger has become our bodyguard." Rick laughed.

The fox and the squirrel looked down cautiously, and saw the tiger still squatting on the spot, staring at them intently, and immediately felt relieved.Rick even took out his backpack, took out the unfinished half-legged rabbit, and tore a piece for the squirrel: "Let's eat it while the tiger is still there. It would be a disaster if an eagle came smelling it in the middle of the night." .”

The tiger sat lazily under the tree, with its tail dangling, happily thinking about how to torment the broken fox that dared to burn its own beard when it caught it later.After thinking about it, he suddenly smelled a tangy aroma, which made him salivate, and hurriedly looked around to find the source of the aroma.

After searching for a long time, no creature passed by. The tiger raised his head and happened to see the fox chewing rabbit meat and wagging its tail.

The fox swallowed the last piece of rabbit meat in one gulp, and looked at the tiger with a smile.Above the head, squirrels eating pine nuts and singing are particularly eye-catching.

tiger:"……"

etc!its not right!Shouldn't you wait in fear for the night and death to come!

What's the matter with eating more fun than me, laughing more than I am, and putting a reserve grain on the top of my head!
