“Mommy’s sweating.”

“Is it too hot?”

“Maybe. It’s very hot in here, and there’s no wind outside. That big rock is blocking the wind.”

“I’ll go take a look.”

After Da Bao said that, she walked out of the cave. That huge rock was like a natural barrier, covering more than half of the cave. That was why they had chosen this cave, especially in such a snowy weather. With the huge rock blocking them, it was isolated from the outside world. It was a very good place to protect themselves.

At this moment, although Shen Xiaoxiao’s body was still extremely stiff, she could feel traces of heat surging up her body. Moreover, her entire body seemed to be boiling hot, completely different from the icy cold feeling from before.

Shen Xiaoxiao knew what was happening outside, so she naturally heard what Da Bao and Little Treasure were talking about. Moreover, they gave her a black pill. A faint fragrance could even be smelled by someone like her who was in a coma.

Furthermore, Shen Xiaoxiao realized that after she took the pill, she felt that the feeling of her entire body burning up was too different from the previous cold feeling. She even felt that her eyes could move.

Of course, at this moment, her eyes were closed. Even though she knew that her eyes could move, she did not move at all.

Moreover, she felt as if all the cells in her body were fighting. One was burning up, and the other was unusually cold. However, after the cold feeling slowly disappeared, her entire body felt warm, making her feel so comfortable that she just wanted to sleep.

“Eh? Mommy isn’t sweating anymore. Da Bao, Mommy isn’t sweating anymore. Da Bao, what are you — what are you doing?”

Little Treasure did not expect that in the time it took to turn his head, he would see an amazing side. Da Bao, Da Bao, she actually pushed away the big rock that was blocking the door.

One had to know that the big rock was as tall as Yan Kuan. Furthermore, it was huge. The opening was more than one meter wide, and the big rock was able to block more than half of it. One could imagine how big the rock was.

But Da Bao actually pushed it. This, this, this was too unbelievable. When did Da Bao become so strong?

“Didn’t you say that the air isn’t circulating? I wanted to try pushing the rock away a little, but I didn’t expect it to really push it away. Little Treasure, I found that my strength seemed to have increased a little.”

“Increased a little? It’s a lot, okay?”

“Is it? Why don’t I feel it?”

Little Treasure ran out in surprise and looked around the big stone for a long time. The marks on the ground were still so obvious and deep. How did this Da Bao do it? Could it be because Da Bao accidentally ate that big golden core?

Was it like this?

“Da Bao, are you feeling unwell anywhere?”

“Unwell?”

“No, oh, yes. I feel an itch on my head.”

Little Treasure immediately brushed Da Bao’s hair away. Indeed, the horn was growing at an alarming rate. What was going on?

“Da Bao, your head is only itchy? Doesn’t it hurt?”

“No, it hurt just now. It doesn’t hurt now.”

Little Treasure didn’t know what was going on either. However, he didn’t dare to stand at the entrance of the cave for other animals to see. He could only pull Da Bao back into the cave.

However, when he pulled him in, the light in the cave dimmed. He saw that the horn on Da Bao’s head seemed to have shrunk.

Little Treasure was stunned. Then, he pulled Da Bao out. As expected, it grew bigger when it came into contact with the light. This happened again and again. Da Bao was about to get angry. Only then did she hear Little Treasure say:

“Da Bao, your horn will grow bigger when it comes into contact with the light.”

“Ah? It can’t be?”

“It’s true. I’ve tried it many times just now.”

“Then what should we do?”

Da Bao reached out and touched her own horns. Why was it so strange?

Little Treasure also thought for a moment and finally said very cleverly, “Got it. Let Mommy make a hat for you. When you put on the hat, it can’t see the light anymore. That way, your horns won’t grow.”

“That’s right. As long as you put on the hat, you won’t be able to see the light anymore. But when will Mommy wake up?”

“I don’t know. Let’s go and wake her up.”

Shen Xiaoxiao was sleeping soundly. She had never felt so comfortable all over her body. It was as if she had fallen into a ball of cotton candy. This feeling was too comfortable.

It was so comfortable that she wanted to sleep just like that.

However, at this moment, she heard Da Bao and Little Treasure’s cries. She could not sleep. She could not. The children were still waiting for her. It was not easy to find the children. She definitely could not leave the children alone.

Shen Xiaoxiao tried her best to wake up from the warmth. However, at this moment, her entire body started to become extremely cold again. It was so cold that she could not move at all. It was as if she had frozen into a popsicle.

When Yan Kuan returned, he saw Shen Xiaoxiao lying there trembling. Without saying a word, he stripped Shen Xiaoxiao of her clothes and placed her into the hot spring water. He said to Little Treasure, “Little Treasure, watch Mommy. Don’t let her drown.”

“Okay.”

Yan Kuan did not dare to delay and immediately ran to take care of the medicinal herbs. This ginseng was snatched from a hedgehog. It was a ginseng with an aged root. It was probably at least 500 years old and had already taken shape. This was definitely a good thing… With that thousand-year-old Ganoderma, these two things could be used to take care of the natural treasures.

Yan Kuan did not care what was best. He placed all of it in a stone pot and stewed it with the pheasant.

As he fanned the fire anxiously, he looked at the other end. How could this be? Didn’t she always sleep quietly and not move? How could it be like this today?

“Daddy, is Mommy very hot? She’s sweating.”

Yan Kuan was stunned and immediately walked over. Sure enough, Shen Xiaoxiao’s entire body was flushed red, and her body was boiling hot.

Yan Kuan picked her up again, dried the water, and placed her in the sleeping bag.

Then, he went out to find snow water and wet her whole body with a handkerchief to lower her temperature.

But not long after, her entire body started to turn cold again. He sent her into the hot spring again.

After repeating this over and over again, he knew that the medicinal herbs were ready. He carefully scooped a bowl and fed her bit by bit with his mouth. Only then did he see that Shen Xiaoxiao had slowly recovered her calm.

“Has Mommy always been like this?”

“Yes, Daddy. She’s been like this ever since you left.”

“Oh, who was the one who broke the big rock at the door?”

Yan Kuan did not really ignore the two children. In the end, he still asked worriedly. This question changed the topic of conversation between the two children. One by one, they explained the miraculous things that had happened to Da Bao.

“Da Bao, are you afraid?”

“Daddy, I’m not afraid. Daddy and Mommy aren’t afraid.”

“Right, neither of us are afraid. Da Bao, don’t be afraid either. When Mommy wakes up, we won’t have to be afraid of anything.”

Yan Kuan looked at Shen Xiaoxiao worriedly. If she did not wake up, would the day when the four of them had just reunited be over?

Yan Kuan didn’t care about that. At night, he fed her another bowl of soup. At dawn, he also fed her another bowl. He could clearly feel her body temperature rising. She was no longer as cold as before. Yan Kuan was overjoyed. This natural treasure was indeed useful.

The next day…
