"Definitely." Chen Jie said firmly. In fact, he was not confident mentally. This meat ball had been away for more than an hour, but it has not come back yet. How could it not make people worried.
The four people fell silent immediately. Only Chen Yanyan kept twitching/moving her shoulders, always feeling like she was about to lose her balls.
The rain began to fall in drizzle, and the four of them thought it didn't matter at first, but the rain became heavier and heavier, the sky began to flash with white light, and deafening thunder sounded in their ears.
"Hurry in, don't catch a cold." Chen Jie's tone was a little serious, and his whole face became serious.
The three girls had no choice but to walk towards the cave.
Chen Jie stood at the door of the cave, facing the woods, and called Meatball's name several times.
In the end, Chen Jie's answer was only the sound of thunder.
"Captain, come back first. Maybe the meatball has left with its partner." Xiao Baihe felt extremely uncomfortable. When she thought of that chubby little guy leaving everyone, she felt as uncomfortable as being cut with a knife.
Chen Jie sighed, turned around and was about to walk back when he heard Miracle start shouting.
"Woof woof woof!"
"Be good, Miracle, and stop barking. I know you are reluctant to part with the meat balls." Chen Yanyan squatted beside Miracle and reached out to touch Miracle's head.
Miracle looked straight in the direction of the woods.
"Don't think about it, maybe Meatball will come back tomorrow." Chen Jie comforted everyone and raised his legs to walk in.
Suddenly, a figure jumped out from the woods. Because the sky was too dark, the white flesh balls were particularly obvious.
"Yes, the meat ball is back." Xiao Baihe looked happy and pointed in the direction of the woods, almost jumping up in excitement.
"Really?" Chen Yanyan said excitedly, quickly stood up and walked towards the door.
Because Chen Jie blocked the only exit, the three girls could only stand behind Chen Jie and look at the familiar figure.
"Meat Ball, run faster." Chen Jie shouted loudly, watching Meat Ball running towards him.
Chen Jie hugged the wet meatball and walked into the cave.
Putting down the meat ball, Chen Jie turned around and covered the dead branches of the black locust tree to prevent other small animals from getting in, which would be uncomfortable.
"Rouqiu, where have you been? I'm really scared to death." Chen Yanyan hugged Rouqiu tightly, and tears burst out instantly.
"Okay, Yanyan, the meat ball has come back, why are you still crying?" Lisa reached out and patted Chen Yanyan's shoulder to comfort Chen Yanyan.
"I, I'm happy, these are tears of joy." Chen Yanyan stretched out her hand to wipe the tears on her face, but who knows, more tears flowed.
After Chen Jie got rid of the dead branches of the black locust, he turned around and saw Chen Yanyan holding the meat ball and crying loudly. Chen Jie raised his eyebrows and walked towards the stove with his legs raised.
He lit a fire casually, and the branches gradually burned.
"Come here and make a light of the fire. It's too cold here at night." Chen Jie watched the fire grow bigger, took out the branches, put them on the ground, and made a small fire.
Because there are chimneys and windows in the cave, there is no need to worry about choking on the smoke.
Chen Yanyan came to the fire with the meat ball in her arms, and the four of them, one dog and one wolf, began to warm themselves by the fire.
"The weather has changed a lot. It's cold." Chen Yanyan had just hugged Meat Ball, and her body was wet from the rain on Meat Ball. She felt a little cold at this time.
"Yeah, it rains all the time lately. It rains almost every day." Xiao Baihe is also a little fed up with the weather, which means that he can't go into the mountains tomorrow and can only walk around nearby.
In fact, Xiao Baihe especially likes to develop new territories or find new varieties with Chen Jie, which makes her feel particularly happy.
But now I can only live the same life around others, which is really uncomfortable.
Chen Jie looked at the three girls and then looked outside.
The nights here are too cold. You can cover your body with bearskin or wolfskin to keep yourself warm at night, but you can't just lie down in bed all the time.
"When I see good furs in the future, I will stay and help you make some cloaks." Chen Jie had already started thinking about how to sew a cloak for heating.
"Cloak? Does it look like the kind of heroine in ancient times?" Chen Yanyan suddenly became interested, and the image of her wearing a cape sewn by the captain herself, holding a sword in her hand, and wandering around the world with the captain emerged in her mind.
"Pfft, Yanyan, have you watched too many TV series?" After Xiao Baihe finished speaking, she burst into laughter.
"I don't have one. The captain said he would make capes for us. Is it also the kind of team uniform?" Chen Yanyan suddenly remembered that generally a team must have uniform clothing.
Chen Jie looked at Chen Yanyan's imaginative thinking and smiled.
"I just think that if you are cold, you can wear it to keep warm. I haven't thought about team uniforms."
You can't let him, a big man, dress like a girl, right?
That's too ugly.
"But we don't have needles, so how should we make clothes?" Lisa looked at Chen Jie in confusion, thinking that Chen Jie was just joking.
But as the boss of a listed company, Lisa was really curious about what method Chen Jie would use to make a beautiful cloak.
"This matter needs long-term consideration. If I had known earlier, I would have kept those skins." Chen Jie thought of the animal furs he had thrown away before, which was a pity.
"Captain, I want a pure white one." Chen Yanyan suddenly raised her hands excitedly and shouted loudly.
Rouqiu raised his head and stared directly at Chen Yanyan, as if he understood the meaning of Chen Yanyan's words.
Chen Jie glanced at the meat ball and spoke with a smile.
"The meat ball is still a little small now. If you really want it, just wait until the meat ball grows bigger."
"Ouch...owoo..." Meatball shouted in protest, making everyone laugh.
"I don't want Meatball's skin, I just like the white color." Chen Yanyan reached out and rubbed Meatball's head, soothing Meatball's injured soul.
Chen Jie nodded and secretly put this matter in his mind.
"Captain, drink some coconut juice, I just heated it up." Xiao Baihe picked up the coconut juice she had just made and handed it to Chen Jie.
"Thank you." Chen Jie reached out to take it and took a sip of the warm and sweet coconut juice.
Chen Yanyan pouted at Xiao Baihe and said coquettishly.
"Sister Baihe, it's very cold here too. I also want to drink some warm coconut juice."
"Okay, we have them all. I've warmed up a lot." Xiao Baihe picked up a coconut, pried open the coconut shell neatly, and handed it to Chen Yanyan.
"Thank you, Sister Baihe, I love you the most, don't you..." Chen Yanyan blew a kiss towards Xiao Baihe.
Then Xiao Baihe gave everyone a coconut juice, and everyone drank it happily.
