Chapter 275: Chapter 275 Sheltering Chapter 275: Chapter 275 Sheltering As they beheld its appearance, everyone was montarily stunned.
The Mosquito-eating Plant, seemingly unaware of its uniqueness, flopped for quite a while before propping up its head, then began twisting its waist, as if to say, “Yo-ho, I’m not dead yet.”
At its carefree deanor, Xiao Shan and Bai Lingyu couldn’t help but grin.
Bai Sasa stole a glance at Bai Junjun, “Elder sister… the Mosquito-eating Plant…”
Bai Junjun sighed with resignation, she hadn’t expected the big silly thing to secretly follow them.
Even though she had sent the Mosquito-eating Plant a signal to stop following her, it ended up coming along anyway.
This could only an that the Mosquito-eating Plant wasn’t affected by her restriction and was acting on its own volition.
Generally speaking, plants do not possess thoughts or a sense of pain.
However, this Mosquito-eating Plant may have been affected by the Water Spirit; it had beco quite independent and stood out from the rest—which was why Bai Junjun had picked it out from the lot in the first place.
Now that the Mosquito-eating Plant got involved, it had transford into a palm-sized mini Mosquito-eating Plant, which if left back in that jungle might not survive.
“Let’s take it with us,” Bai Junjun relented with a sigh, “But it can’t walk on its own anymore, we’ll have to put it in the Dawn Cedar’s basket.”
Upon hearing this, the three children joyously got to work, planting the Mosquito-eating Plant next to the Small Cedarwood, and made sure to water it.
The children welcod their new friend with trendous enthusiasm.
While the children tended to the Mosquito-eating Plant, Bai Junjun began to take stock of their goods.
All the gold and jewels in the Space had been tossed out, leaving only salt and a pile of Weapons.
Seeing this, Bai Junjun felt like crying and fainting in the bathroom.
Li Wenli scratched his head guiltily, “Think of it as spending money to avert disaster.”
After all, without sufficient gold and jewels, they couldn’t have swayed the Flood Dragon. If they had lost their lives, what use would more treasure have been?
As Bai Junjun mourned the loss of her jewels, the little butler who had just planted the Mosquito-eating Plant also began to sigh with regret.
In the rush to escape, they had failed to bring honey, candles, or the pots and pans made by hand.
Those were their most precious belongings, and now all were left in the treehouse, causing a pain that went deep to the spine.
The Bai sisters, one grieving over lost jewels, the other over lost food, both had faces clouded with dismay.
On the contrary, the three gentlen were rather philosophical about it.
“This forest looks even larger than the previous one, there must be food to be found.”
It was now nightfall, and the jungle was quiet, with only the occasional mosquito buzzing through, quickly exterminated by the joyous Mosquito-eating Plant.
With the help of the Water of Flora, its injured branches no longer bled, and there were already signs of healing.
Xiao Shan and Bai Lingyu were also pleased to see the Mosquito-eating Plant catching mosquitoes and even joined in the hunt, feeding it afterwards.
They treated it just like looking after a little dog.
With the Mosquito-eating Plant around, the one-ter-tall Small Cedarwood was thoroughly neglected.
So, it gazed upon this plump plant that ca to steal its land and affection, its face full of discontent.
Daring rascal plant, how dare you compete for territory with the Cedar royal family.
“?”
The Mosquito-eating Plant sensed Small Cedarwood’s dissatisfaction, but only showed a hint of confusion before becoming lively and bustling again.
“…” Small Cedarwood.
Watching the proud Cedar in the Vine Basket sulk, Bai Junjun finally laughed mischievously.
If she’d known the Mosquito-eating Plant could handle this guy, she would have brought it along in the first place.
She also wondered how the Mosquito-eating Plant had managed to find them from such a great distance.
