As soon as Jiujiu saw the white tiger, she knew there was something below, so she quickly chased after it, trying to push the white tiger aside.
The white tiger clung to the tree trunk with its claws, fiercely protecting what lay beneath it, unwilling to let Jiujiu move.
Jiujiu got more and more excited as it tried to grab the food; its eyes lit up, and it kept making "Jiujiu chirp" noises, determined to watch.
Their commotion was so loud that it attracted everyone's attention.
Hei Wa just separated them, stop fighting over them.
When the white tiger saw the Hei Wa, it stepped aside, revealing what it was protecting underneath—two red tongues sticking out from the base of a tree trunk.
Two bright red, moist tongues were suddenly exposed to Jiujiu's eyes, and Jiujiu was so frightened that its fur almost stood on end.
After a two-second pause, Jiujiu let out a miserable scream, "Heh--"
Ying'ao rushed to Jiujiu's side, but before he could even get a clear look at the situation, Ying'ao Jiujiu over and climbed onto his back. "Hehehe!!!"
The white tiger grinned beside him, its fluffy face looking very smug.
Ying'ao glanced at the white tiger, then at the "tongue" on the tree, and for a moment, a speechless expression appeared on his face.
Hearing the cries, Jian Mo and Wu Jiong rushed towards Jiujiu: "Jiujiu —what's wrong?"
Shi Wen arrived before them, saying, "Let me see."
Shi Wen arrived at the scene, after a careful examination, he said to Jian Mo and Wu Jiong, who had rushed over, "It's a beef tongue mushroom—"
Jian Mo and Wu Jiong looked at the "tongue" growing out of the tree, then at the terrified Jiujiu: "Huh?"
Shi Wen said helplessly, "These trees often grow ox-tongue mushrooms. Hei Wa would scare each other after they found them, but I didn't expect them to scare Jiujiu today."
Shi Wen lightly tapped the white tiger's head, saying, "Don't scare the guests like that."
White Tiger: "Meow!"
Shi Wen, "Nonsense, it didn't bully you first. You were clearly bullying each other."
Shi Wen didn't try to make peace with the little guys; after criticizing each of them, he let them go off to play.
After a brief period of listlessness, Jiujiu started playing with the other chirps again—this little guy is a social chirp and doesn't like being alone.
Jian Mo and Wu Jiong saw that they got along well, so they didn't bother with them.
Jian Mo squatted down in front of the beef tongue mushroom and examined it closely. "It really does look like a tongue. I've never seen a mushroom like this before."
Shi Wen laughed and said, "I've never seen this before either. This kind of fungus didn't used to grow here, but somehow it suddenly started appearing. It's quite expensive; we've already introduced and cultivated it."
Jian Mo: "That's amazing."
Shi Wen, "Yes, come on, I'll take you to pick other mushrooms. We have several kinds of mushrooms here that taste really good, and we always find some good ones every time we go."
Jian Mo Wu Jiong along, "Then we'll follow you. We've walked around several times, but we haven't found many."
Shi Wen, "That's normal. Many mushrooms grow in fixed places. First-time visitors don't know this, but they'll get used to it after a few visits. There are also many wild fruits in the forest, which are ripe now; you should be able to pick some."
Jian Mo was very interested. "Nuts?"
Shi Wen, "They should be considered berries, like wild strawberries and figs."
Jian Mo Wu Jiong, saying, "I like both of these fruits, but I've never seen them wild."
A beckoning sound Shi Wen: "Come with me, I'll take you to pick some."
The three of them walked forward.
The little ones picking mushrooms nearby heard their conversation, their ears twitched, and they came running over on all fours.
Finally, all the little ones followed behind them and went to pick wild berries.
Jian Mo glanced back and smiled.
Shi Wen's little one is really like a child, lively, active, and very curious. I hope they can raise Jiujiu and Ying'ao just as well.
Chapter 211 Paid Extra Chapter 8
On the day Jian Mo officially transformed back into her juvenile sub-beastman form, many people arrived at Shi Wen's ranch.
Shi Wen quietly introduced the newcomer's identity to Jian Mo and Wu Jiong.
Jian Mo and Wu Jiong didn't know each other very well, but the person who came must have a good relationship with Shi Wen and the Shi Wen, and Jian Mo also had a good impression of the person who came.
After introducing the people, Shi Wen explained in detail to Jian Mo and Wu Jiong the principles and precautions for turning Jian Mo back into his sub-beastman juvenile form.
After listening, Jian Mo and Wu Jiong expressed their understanding, and the transformation officially began.
Today's transformation is being conducted by Shi Wen's partner, Yan Kexing. As an adult dragon, he is the most capable and experienced, and can ensure safety to the greatest extent possible.
Seeing Jian Mo and Wu Jiong's hands clasped tightly together, Yan Kexing smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, this isn't difficult."
Jian Mo nodded. "I'm trying to relax."
Yan Kexing: "Alright, let's get started."
The process of Jian Mo transforming into a juvenile sub-beastman was simpler than he had imagined. Under Yan Kexing's manipulation, he quickly turned into a gray, long-haired kitten with a huge, long-haired tail.
He stood there, blinking in confusion, sensing the change in his perspective and the sudden increase in the size of the people around him. "Meow, meow meow."
Shi Wen helped Yan Kexing and quickly reminded him, "You've just turned back into a juvenile sub-beastman; you can talk."
Jian Mo tilted her head back. "Oh yeah, meow."
Wu Jiong squatted down. "Try walking, can you walk?"
Jian Mo dragged her long tail and walked forward on all fours, her movements awkward due to her lack of skill. "I can walk? That's strange."
Wu Jiong gently patted his head. "Don't rush, we'll take it slowly."
Jian Mo nodded vigorously. "Okay, meow."
Jian Mo felt very uncomfortable all over, as if many of her organs were not in their original positions.
He could transform parts of his body into beast forms before, but he didn't experience this strange sensation.
Shi Wen and Yan Kexing observed Jian Mo's condition and said to everyone, "Let's leave it at that for now. We'll analyze the data later after we've collected it."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Shi Wen turned around and said to Jian Mo, "Everyone, please feel free to do as you please. You don't need to stay here."
