Sisters in the Deep Forest Valley: Many Fun Things

Chapter 185 The Picnic Party Begins

She remembered the lynx she hadn't seen before and looked up to ask, "Sister, is this a friend or a neighbor that the kitten brought?" After hosting so many friends and neighbors of squirrels, she was already immune to the idea that animals like to bring their families.

Lin Chunyi chuckled and kept everyone in suspense: "None of them. You'll know if you take a closer look."

Lin Lanshan stared at the little female cat from head to toe, then suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "A female? Could this be the kitten's wife? She really has a family!"

"Haha, I was really surprised when I found out too. The last time I saw the kitten, it was still single. It really moved fast!"

"Let's go, it's already light out, and the wild animals in the mountains should be up by now. Next, we'll look for some good food along the way, and find a nice spot for a barbecue."

Lin Lanshan nodded and said, "Okay!" Then she got on the mule cart and sat down. "You two little kittens, come on up, we're about to set off."

She was considering whether to name the two lynxes; she couldn't just keep calling them kittens and female kittens.

The kitten jumped up first and stood at her feet, and the mother cat followed suit, standing next to the kitten.

After Lin Chunyi was the last to board the car, Taozi snorted softly, stomped her front hooves, and pulled the carriage along.

They casually chose a path in the forest and slowly made their way back, the two of them and the two cats diligently searching for prey that liked to get up early to find food.

They turned back because they always preferred to stay deep in the mountains rather than wander around the outskirts.

The area is close to the foot of the mountain, so there aren't many large wild animals. Therefore, many villagers often go up the mountain to hunt or forage for wild vegetables.

Especially with the recent winter hunting activities in the village, groups of ten, twenty, or even thirty people will be moving around, and the two sides will definitely run into each other very easily.

They weren't prepared to encounter the villagers in the mountains. They felt that if they did, people would naturally ask questions, inquire, and even follow them.

Who knows when our home's location might be revealed?

The thought of many people walking into the valley with curious or calculating eyes filled them with unease and fear.

Youxian Mountain does not belong to them alone.

But they still resisted, so they could only try to prevent anyone from discovering their only safe haven.

If they could, the two sisters selfishly hoped that no one would ever venture into the deep mountains and valleys to discover their home...

With the addition of two lynxes, the three little squirrels, who were originally fearless, became a bit listless.

He jumped and hopped all over the carriage, sometimes climbing on the wooden benches inside, sometimes admiring the scenery outside.

It turned into a "well-behaved mouse" that stood obediently upright in the carriage.

Lin Lanshan turned around and glanced at the scene in the carriage, not finding anything amiss, and even smiled as she said:

"Little squirrel, come here, don't be afraid. This is the new friend I told you about. Isn't he just as fluffy and adorable as you? You can get to know him."

Lin Chunyi wholeheartedly agreed and began to spout nonsense with an air of importance: "That's right, look at you, you can all climb trees, and you can all run and jump, isn't that a common hobby?"

Having more friends means having more options! Let me tell you, I've even seen wolves and sheep be best friends before, and they had a really good relationship!

Although the two lynxes and squirrels couldn't fully understand what the two sisters said, they grasped the general meaning.

So everyone stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

Three Little Squirrels: This joke is so ridiculous, which squirrel wouldn't be confused? We don't find them cute at all; we just think their bite could probably take half of us!

Lynx couple: Ah, this kind of mouse doesn't taste very good, so it's not usually on our diet. But several of their distant relatives smell delicious! How did they end up playing together? No cat has ever taught us how!

And wolves? Befriending their food?? If those silly wolves in the stinky cave to the south could befriend sheep, their laughter would probably echo all the way down the mountain...

None of the three little squirrels and two lynxes could understand or agree; they could only stare at each other with their three small eyes.

One side dares not move, and the other side does not want to move.

The scene was awkward, quiet, and cold.

"Cats and mice don't seem to be able to be friends, right? Hahaha... Well, why don't you two stay away from each other and, for my sake, get along amicably for a day?"

Lin Lanshan finally realized that her suggestion had a major problem. But there was nothing she could do; she had already invited them all, and she couldn't just abandon any of them halfway through.

Lin Chunyi took another cucumber and broke it in half. "Come on, come on, the two little kittens, have some pre-meal snack too." If they eat cucumber, they can't eat the squirrel, okay...

Even if they have to grit their teeth, they're determined to put on this unique picnic party today!

To have a happy time eating, drinking and having fun

Let alone cats and mice,

Even if a tiger, leopard, or brown bear came today, we'd still shake hands with them cheerfully and then dance together!

The two lynxes were also eating this kind of juicy, long fruit for the first time, and they found it quite novel. They nestled at Lin Lanshan's feet, slowly nibbling on it.

The atmosphere in the carriage was very peaceful...

The wheels of the mule cart clattered over the withered branches and leaves, leaving a loud noise wherever it went.

This startled the wild animals that were either foraging or sleeping nearby, causing them to hide.

They wandered around the woods for almost half an hour without finding anything.

Lin Chunyi said helplessly, "No, if we wander around like this until tomorrow, we won't be able to get a hot meal. Lanshan, let's find a place near water to put the carriage there first, and then we can walk around in the mountains later."

Being near a water source means that herbivores will frequently linger in the vicinity, which also means that carnivores will come to hunt.

Quietly explore the surrounding area; you're sure to find something good within five kilometers!

Lin Lanshan looked at their current location. "Okay, let's go to the place where we first hunted wild boar. I remember there's a stream and a large, flat grassland there, a very open area. It's just a few steps from here."

After discussing it, the two of them drove off in a mule cart.

Passing through the partially shaded woods where the leaves have fallen to the ground, one arrives at a bright, overgrown scene of withered, yellow weeds.

And along the edge of the tenacious weeds, a babbling brook, about an arm's width wide, flows gently.

It crashes against the rocks with a splashing sound, stirs the water plants, and teases the little fish by flicking their tails. It never tires, and there is no end in sight.

In the mountains, by the water, on the grassland

Spacious, quiet, and reassuring.

"Okay! This is it." Lin Chunyi smiled with satisfaction, unloaded the carriage, and said, "Get down, everyone. We'll have barbecue here today."

As soon as he finished speaking, two lynxes nimbly jumped off the car and twitched their noses on the grass.

Then came the reunion and peace, and it skillfully spread its wings and flew down.

The squirrels cautiously observed the two big cats several times.

Seeing them rolling and playing on the grass, completely unaware of me, I followed the three little squirrels and jumped off the car one after another.

All the "guests" for the picnic have arrived, and the location is ready.

Now, all that's missing is the "meal"!
