Chapter 205: Long Ming and the Cubs
Chapter 205: Long Ming and the Cubs
After dinner, Mo Bai wanted to take the cubs to the nearby forest to find bamboo. Chi Yuan felt uneasy when he saw a group of cubs who had just transformed into human form and were unwilling to change back into animal form, so he wanted to go with them to protect them.
Long Ming offered to go by himself because he didn't know how to make animal skin skirts and couldn't help if he stayed at home.
Long Ming’s fighting power could match that of the six of them, so there was no reason for Chi Yuan to disagree.
So the kids got their wish and once again sat on Uncle Longming's dragon back and soared into the sky.
"Ahhh, it's so high! Uncle Long Ming, please fly lower, I'm a little scared." Boss Chi was a little afraid of heights as always.
"No, this is so exciting and fun, hahahaha, Uncle Long Ming, can you fly faster?" Chi Ershijiu could hardly open his eyes, but his tone was more excited than ever.
Mo Bai pulled Little Twenty-Nine back to sit beside him, "Everyone sit tight, falling from such a height is no joke."
The fox cubs and panda cubs sat obediently with their backs to the wind, watching the scenery passing by quickly with curiosity.
"Eighth brother, did you see that? It turns out that the things above our heads that we can't see look like this. Those tall and thick trees that we saw in the forest seem so small when we look down from above!"
Mo Xiaoer has the least sense of existence among all the female cubs, because her eighth brother who raised her is calm and taciturn, and she has also been raised to be very quiet in daily life. She always silently follows her eighth brother to practice her special abilities and silently make herself stronger.
Jin Heng patted his sister's head like a little adult and nodded, "Well, when we came out of the Misty Forest yesterday, the fog was too thick and we were nervous so we didn't see the beautiful scenery. Let's see more today."
"Yeah." Mo Xiaoer was in a good mood today because his father said he looked most like his mother!
"Long Ming, there seems to be a bamboo forest below. Let's go down and take a look." Mo Bai spotted the bamboo forest below with his sharp eyes.
"Okay." Long Ming responded and dived down quickly.
"Ahhh! Uncle Long Ming, go slower, I'm scared!" Boss Chi's chubby face was puffed up by the wind, and his voice sounded a little funny.
As soon as she finished shouting, Long Ming had already landed safely on the ground.
Long Ming was amused by the cubs' standing hair. The corners of his usually serious lips curled up, "What are you afraid of? Can I throw you down?"
Boss Chi wiped away his nonexistent tears with his big hands, "Wow, wow, I will never ride on Uncle Longming's back again. It's too scary."
When he looked up and saw Chi Xiaoer in front of him, he burst into laughter, "Hahahaha, Chi Xiaoer, your hair is standing up!"
"Your hair isn't in much better shape either." Chi Xiaoer calmly straightened his hair, turned around and glanced at his brothers and sisters, and felt relieved. It wasn't just the two of them whose hair was messed up.
Mo Bai rubbed the messy heads of the kids and suppressed a laugh. "Alright, clean up. I'm going to pick some bamboo shoots. You guys pick some young shoots. Don't go too far. We'll meet back here later. Do you understand?"
"okay!"
"There are more tender bamboo shoots to eat!"
"Third sister, let's pick some more tender bamboo shoots. We'll go back and ask my father to make some braised bamboo shoots in oil, okay?"
"Yeah, there are also steamed buns stuffed with bamboo shoots!"
The cubs held the animal skin bags and chatted while they started to pick the tender bamboo shoots skillfully.
Long Ming followed behind the cubs, watching the little cubs, who were not even as tall as his calves, dragging large animal skin bags that could hold several of them and carefully breaking off the tender bamboo shoots. His desire for the Long cubs became even stronger.
He followed suit and unconsciously helped them pick the tender bamboo shoots. Every time he filled a bag, the kids would say sweetly, "Thank you, Uncle Longming. Uncle Longming, you are so awesome."
Long Ming felt a joy he had never felt before. It turned out that when he was with the little ones, he would unconsciously talk softly, and when they were happy, he would laugh along with them!
"There's a bamboo rat!" Chi Shiwu suddenly shouted.
"where?"
"This way."
The little snakes reacted the fastest. They dropped the animal skin bags, transformed into animal forms and chased after them.
"Don't run too far." Long Ming reminded the little snakes that were swimming fast.
Chi Shiwu's confident voice came back from a distance, "Don't worry, Uncle Long Ming, it won't take long to chase these bamboo rats."
"You're not going?" Long Ming looked at the fox cubs and panda cubs who were still picking bamboo shoots seriously without raising their heads.
"My mother said that when you do something, you have to devote yourself to it wholeheartedly." Yihang answered seriously.
Jing Chu exposed his elder brother and said, "Actually, we don't like the ugly appearance of bamboo rats, hahahaha."
"As long as it tastes good, no matter what it looks like." Long Ming didn't quite understand what the little ones were thinking.
"But there are so many prey in the forest, why should we hunt such small prey as bamboo rats? Besides, mother said she doesn't like rats." Luo Chen had actually discovered the bamboo rats hiding in the holes a long time ago, but mother said she didn't like to eat rat meat, so he felt there was no need to hunt them.
Oh? So she doesn't like it? Okay, he remembered.
Long Ming patted Luo Chen's little head to show his appreciation, "You are a good boy for remembering your mother's preferences. I will teach you how to improve your abilities faster in the future."
"Really?" Luo Chen was a little surprised. He always thought that Uncle Long Ming was very powerful and difficult to get along with. He didn't expect that he would take the initiative to offer to teach him!
"Can I still lie to the little ones?" Long Ming couldn't help but pinch Luo Chen's chubby little face. These little ones are much cuter in human form than in animal form.
"Of course not! Thank you, Uncle Long Ming! Hehe, that's great. With you teaching me in the future, my abilities will definitely be more powerful than Seventh Sister's!"
"Why do you always compete with me?" Yi Han was called and turned to look at him.
"Uncle Long Ming, can you teach me too?" Mo Xiaoqi heard their conversation and ran to Long Ming happily, tilting his little head and blinking his big eyes.
"I also want to learn from Uncle Long Ming!" Mo Xiaojiu also ran over.
"I also want!"
The little ones all gathered around.
Long Ming had never interacted with puppies before, and was suddenly surrounded by dozens of soft and cute puppies. He was a little at a loss.
Mo Bai came back carrying the processed bamboo sections and saw the kids all surrounding Long Ming. He was confused and asked, "What are they doing?"
"It'll be nice if you come back."
Fortunately, he came back. Long Ming breathed a sigh of relief. "Okay, you guys pack the bamboo shoots first. I'll go check on the little snakes. I'll teach you when I get back."
"Okay."
"Father, Uncle Long Ming said he wants to teach us how to improve our superpowers!"
Mo Bai didn't realize that the relationship between the cubs and Long Ming had taken a big step closer while he was away. He nodded with satisfaction, "Then you must study hard."
"OK!"
