After sleeping for so long, Xu Qiaoqiao is no longer sleepy.
After she finished exercising her muscles, she slipped to Jun Qi's side, next to Jun Qi's head, and just stayed with him quietly, doing nothing.
"Chirp."
Xu Qiaoqiao lay next to Jun Qi and touched Jun Qi's beak gently with her paws. The sunlight outside shone through the entrance of the cave and shone brightly on Jun Qi's expression, making her look particularly peaceful.
However, there is one thing that I wonder if Jun Qi knows about.
Junjun, actually I felt Niannian’s presence last night. He came to see me and said a lot to me.
It's just that at that time, I hadn't fully woken up yet, and my consciousness had returned. You know, it always takes a long time to wake up from hibernation. Niannian didn't know about this, so he thought I hadn't woken up yet.
.
I don’t know how long it’s been since I got him back. He cooed and said a lot last night, but he’s still the same as before.
Xu Qiaoqiao looked at Jun Qi and raised her hand to touch the scar on his eye. Due to time, the scar had faded a lot, but it still looked very inconsistent on Jun Qi's face.
You know, right, because you came back very late last night, and after leaving Nian Nian, you came back with both feet, hey.
It's a little uncomfortable.
Xu Qiaoqiao didn't know what to say. She looked at Jun Qi and had lived with this owl for several years. She also knew clearly that the other person's condition was slowly declining.
The spring sunshine was warm and shone on the body. Even if there was no sleepiness, sleepiness would come over in such a comfortable time. Xu Qiaoqiao yawned and said something to Jun Qi before closing her eyes.
Junjun, if it really doesn't work, after I die, you and Nian Nian can live together again, just to have a companion.
Jun Qi is destined not to know what Xu Qiaoqiao said.
But it doesn't matter if you know it. After all, in a family, there must be someone with a hard heart.
But it was also the first time for Jun Qi to face such a clingy little guy. He remembered that when he left his parents, he was very neat and tidy, unlike this cub.
Tsk tsk, it seems that after spending a long time with the little hedgehog, I have contracted the disease of soft-heartedness.
In the following period, with the tacit understanding between Jun Qi and Xu Qiaoqiao, the sneakiness became more and more unrestrained every year. If Xu Qiaoqiao hadn't woken up in the middle, she really wouldn't have known that this guy was really
He was so unrestrained that he fell asleep next to her and Jun Qi in broad daylight.
Looking at the sleeping owl, Xu Qiaoqiao laughed helplessly, not knowing what to say.
After being stunned for a few seconds, Xu Qiaoqiao lay down decisively, forget it, ignore it, and pretend she didn't see it.
In the morning, I endured my sleepiness and flew back, then slept until the afternoon, and flew away before Jun Qi and Xu Qiaoqiao woke up. During this period, I slept very deeply.
Xu Qiaoqiao also tried to wake the other person up, but she didn't know if it was a common problem among owls, that is, they were very fast asleep when they were sleeping, and they couldn't wake them up no matter what. She guessed that even an earthquake wouldn't wake them up. They were sleeping.
So heavy.
So she didn't have to worry about Jun Qi waking up.
This is probably the reason why Niannian is so bold, and he has been doing it secretly for so long, probably several months.
Even if they don't see people, animals are very sensitive to smells. If Jun Qi hadn't noticed after such a long time, he would have been a fake owl.
The owl's IQ is not low. For Nian Nian, he has been doing this for so long, and no matter what, he still reacts.
Woohoo, mommy and daddy didn’t give up on themselves.
They were still willing to stay with him. This tree hole was filled with the scent of Jun Qi and Xu Qiaoqiao, which made him feel at ease.
This state lasted until Xu Qiaoqiao couldn't move her legs and her mental state was particularly bad. Jun Qi took care of her for most of the night. At dawn, he rarely fell asleep.
"Gugu?" You really don't want to eat?
Jun Qi approached Xu Qiaoqiao with an earthworm in her mouth. She didn't eat well last night. It was one thing to wake up late. The most important thing was that she had a loss of appetite.
There was a lot of food beside Jun Qi, including dead mice, caterpillars, green grass, and fruits stolen from humans. Xu Qiaoqiao only ate some green grass and left the rest untouched.
Xu Qiaoqiao nodded and muttered: Well, no more.
Seeing this, Jun Qi didn't force her. After eating all the earthworms and the food piled next to him, Jun Qi touched Xu Qiaoqiao with his beak and nudged her a few times. His eyes were wet and he looked worried.
.
I come here every year at this time.
"Gu Gu."
He called out softly, then flew to the entrance of the cave, and met Jun Qi's eyes.
Well……
Every year:……
"Gu——"
Nian Nian was so frightened that he screamed. He could no longer stand still and fell down. His feathers were flying and he couldn't flap his wings steadily.
There was a hint of disgust in Jun Qi's eyes, tsk tsk, it's really useless.
Then, regardless of what the other person was doing, he hugged Xu Qiaoqiao and fell asleep. The sun was just right outside, and it seemed that today was another sunny day.
After Jun Qi fell asleep, a figure appeared furtively at the entrance of the cave. The figure poked his head out, looked at Xu Qiaoqiao and Jun Qi inside, and blinked a few times.
All asleep?
Yes, everyone is asleep.
Nian Nian watched for a long time before slowly flying in. He went over to look at Jun Qi first, and after seeing that he had already fallen asleep, he rested next to him with peace of mind.
It seems that what I just saw was wrong. Aren’t mom and dad still sleeping well?
The hot summer wind blew away all the coolness, and there was not a single cloud in the blue sky.
When she first noticed something was wrong, Xu Qiaoqiao shook her head gently. She couldn't remember clearly and had to dig deeper. She probably felt more and more tired after waking up from hibernation.
It was originally because of her old age. At first, she thought it was just the aftereffects of not waking up completely from hibernation. Later, the estrus period in spring did not affect her at all, and she felt very tired all the time.
After summer, this feeling is particularly obvious.
Very familiar feeling.
Xu Qiaoqiao opened her eyes drowsily. She glanced at Jun Qi beside her. It was still bright outside in Nian Nian.
She was silent for a while, then decisively climbed onto Nian Nian's body. She patted the owl underneath her. She was an adult and her body was already very strong, but she was smaller than Jun Jun.
It's the last period of his life, and Xu Qiaoqiao has decided that no matter what Jun Qi thinks, Nian Nian cannot leave.
Junjun and him are her closest friends in this world.
So let her have her own way, she wants both of them to stay with her.
After adjusting the position, Xu Qiaoqiao fell asleep.
