Chapter 290: Encounter In The Snow Mountain (2)
“Be good then. There are so many people here,” Leng Ruoxue whispered.
“Xue’er, if I behave, will there be a reward?” Freak took the opportunity to state his condition.
“Yes.”
“Okay, I’ll definitely be good,” Freak promised.
“Grandpa, there’s a cave. Let’s rest there today!” Leng Ruoxue pointed to the cave entrance not far away. After walking for a day, they hadn’t seen a single person, and she didn’t know what kind of task they had to do here.
“Okay.”
Everyone walked toward the cave together.
“This place is pretty spacious,” Leng Qingtian said after looking around the cave. The cave was enormous, about three meters high, and very clean.
“Okay. If anyone wants to enter the space, I’ll send you in. If you don’t want to, then let’s camp here tonight!” Leng Ruoxue said. They hadn’t camped outside for a long time, and it felt good to experience camping occasionally, so she decided to sleep outside tonight.
“Xue’er! Grandpa will sleep outside tonight,” Leng Qingtian said.
Just as Leng Qingtian finished speaking, Lin Liang and the other old men also said that they were going to spend the night outside tonight.
But Feng Da and the others wanted to return to the space to sleep, so Leng Ruoxue sent them directly into the bracelet.
In the cave, Leng Ruoxue and the others lit a pile of firewood, took out some rabbit meat, and started grilling it.
Rumble! Suddenly, a loud sound spread into the cave.
“What was that?” Leng Ruoxue was puzzled.
“Probably a spirit beast!” Leng Qingtian frowned. Is this the lair of some large spirit beast?
At the same time, a tall, snow-white bear ran in and glared at them angrily.
“Humans, this is my home. Leave quickly.” The giant white bear spoke human words.
“Uhh!” Cold sweat dripped down Leng Qingtian’s forehead. He was right.
“Big white bear, it’s getting late, and your place is big enough. Lend us the place to stay for the night! This food will be our lodging fee,” Leng Ruoxue discussed. This bear should have a good temper. Otherwise, any other spirit beast would have already started fighting.
The white bear thought for a while and then nodded in agreement.
“This bear is pretty sensible,” Old Zao whispered.
“Idiot, this bear is a divine beast. Would a divine beast possess a low IQ?” Old Man said with some disdain. He really didn’t expect that the first beast they encountered after entering the snow mountain was actually a divine beast.
“Stop bickering. You two are letting others laugh at you,” Lin Liang said helplessly.
“Hmph!” The two old men snorted and stopped talking.
“Here, big white bear. Did you go out to look for food?” Leng Ruoxue asked as she handed the white bear a piece of grilled rabbit meat.
“Yeah.” The giant white bear took the grilled rabbit meat and slowly chewed on it.
“Why didn’t you hibernate?” Leng Ruoxue asked curiously.
“It’s summer now,” the giant white bear replied while eating.
“Summer? Then why didn’t I see a single spirit beast?” Leng Ruoxue was puzzled.
“Spirit beasts have their own territory, and this is mine. Other spirit beasts don’t dare to come here,” the giant white bear explained.
“Ah! Then doesn’t that mean you don’t have food to eat?!” Leng Ruoxue said very sympathetically.
“Yeah. I’ll have food if I can find some. If I can’t, I will have to go hungry,” the giant white bear said very honestly.
Looking at the white bear who answered every question and was very polite, two drops of cold sweat dripped down Leng Ruoxue’s forehead. She sighed in her heart. It’s really not easy for this bear to live well and become a divine beast! Why is he more well-behaved than Quill?
“How pitiful! Come, have more.” Old Zao handed over two pieces of grilled rabbit meat. Oh, this bear isn’t bad. He suits my taste, hehe!
“Thank you!” the giant white bear said gratefully.
“Big white bear, have you thought about leaving this place?” Leng Ruoxue asked when she saw Old Zao fawning over him.
“No, we can’t leave this place unless we acknowledge humans as our masters. But there aren’t many humans who can come here. Most importantly, there hasn’t been anyone I took a liking to,” the giant white bear said.
“Oh? Can you tell me about the snow mountain?” Leng Ruoxue probed.
“Sure. There are two divine beasts in this snow mountain. One is me, and the other is a snake. But that snake has a very bad temper, so you better be careful not to provoke it. Its territory is in the northern part of the snow mountain. There won’t be much danger as long as you don’t go there.” The white bear was very cooperative and gave them a general overview of the mountain.
“Then do you know what task we need to complete in the snow mountain?” Leng Ruoxue asked.
“I don’t know.” The giant white bear scratched his head embarrassedly with his big paw.
“Oh, thank you,” Leng Ruoxue said very politely.
“Hehe, you’re welcome.” The giant white bear smiled foolishly.
Leng Ruoxue and the others finished dinner, set up their tents, and prepared to rest early.
“Big white bear, we’re going to bed first!” Leng Ruoxue said after glancing at Old Zao, who had been sticking to the giant white bear.
“Okay.” The giant white bear nodded and continued chatting with Old Zao.
In the tent, Freak laid down beside Leng Ruoxue and asked curiously, “Xue’er, does Old Zao want to take that big white bear?”
“Probably. And according to my guess, the chance of success is very high!” Leng Ruoxue said with a light smile.
“Freak, don’t you have any spirit beasts you want?” Leng Ruoxue asked. She remembered that he didn’t have any spirit beast yet!
“Xue’er, I have a spirit beast, but it’s sleeping!” Freak said mysteriously.
“Oh, I want to sleep too.” Leng Ruoxue closed her eyes.
“Xue’er, we haven’t kissed yet!” Freak murmured with displeasure on his face. He grumbled in his head, Why isn’t Xue’er curious about my spirit beast at all?
