Chapter 127 Entering the Deep Forest
Chapter 127 Entering the Deep Forest
Entering the depths of the forest, Shen Li looked around cautiously. After confirming that there was no one around, she thought lightly, and Wolf Xiaoliu was instantly summoned out from the space.
This wolf Xiaoliu was taken in by Shen Li when he was less than a month old. Since then, he has been living in the space and has never set foot in the mountains and fields outside.
Suddenly freed, it went into a frenzy, howling "wooo wooo" one after another, venting its inner ecstasy.
"Great! Great! I'm out! Hahaha!" It shouted excitedly as it jumped up and down in the mountains and forests, dashing left and right, like a silver lightning, and disappeared into the depths of the dense jungle in the blink of an eye.
Shen Li cried out inwardly when she saw this. It wasn't that she was worried that it would escape and never come back, but she was afraid that it would run aimlessly into unknown areas in the deep mountains and forests, where it would encounter danger, which would be very bad.
So she hurriedly ran after him, shouting as she ran: "Xiao Liu, Xiao Liu! Stop right there!"
However, Wolf Xiaoliu didn't know whether he really didn't hear it or was too excited to control himself, so he never responded and soon disappeared completely.
Shen Li stamped her feet in anger, feeling secretly annoyed.
Although his physical fitness has been greatly improved with the nourishment of the spiritual spring, his speed is still far behind that of the energetic little mad wolf who grew up eating pig grass and drinking spiritual spring in the space.
In desperation, she could only look around vigilantly while continuing to pursue, muttering weakly: "Xiao Liu, Xiao Liu, you little bastard, if you run away again, your owner will not want you anymore!"
Unconsciously, Shen Li arrived at the familiar pond. The pond was like an ancient mirror, quietly hidden in the mountains and forests. Everything around it seemed unchanged. The water surface was still shimmering, reflecting the surrounding green mountains and trees.
Afterwards, she walked to the cave where she had saved the painted-faced boy. Shen Li stood at the entrance for a long time, her thoughts drifting away.
She slowly took out the jade pendant that she had taken from the boy before. The jade pendant emitted a soft luster in her palm, its smooth and delicate texture remained the same, and its color was still bright and eye-catching.
Shen Li sighed softly and thought to herself: I don't know when I will have the chance to return this jade pendant to him. Maybe it will be difficult to achieve in this lifetime.
After a moment, she put the jade pendant back into the space and placed it in a separate corner.
After a brief pause, Shen Li raised his foot and continued walking deeper into the forest.
Along the way, she dug up some rare herbs and quickly caught a plump pheasant. Coincidentally, she also encountered a rather strange little white snake along the way.
The snake's behavior was extremely abnormal. When Shen Li picked it up, it lay motionless at first, as if pretending to be dead. But the moment Shen Li just held it, it suddenly twisted wildly, as if it had suddenly gone crazy.
Shen Li was amused and confused by its sudden action. She threw it and the pheasant into the space and continued to explore this mysterious and vibrant forest.
Shen Li walked further and further into the forest, completely unaware of how long she had been walking.
The surrounding mountain and forest scenery was completely unfamiliar to her, as if she had stepped into a mysterious territory that had never been explored.
She raised her wrist slightly and her eyes fell on the exquisite watch. The hands on the dial clearly showed that it was already 4:30 in the afternoon.
This watch carries the shared memories between her and her father Shen Shaodong. She bought it on her father's birthday and it has special meaning. One watch for her father and one for her.
In ancient times when time was measured by sundials and hourglasses, and mostly based on experience and guesswork, this watch undoubtedly became an extremely practical item in her life, allowing her to accurately grasp the passage of time and arrange her affairs. Whether it was farm work, space cultivation, or exploring the mountains, it added a sense of calmness and organization to her.
