Chapter 1411: I Only Want You (109)

They would stop to take a quick break to snack on some food and drink some water every now and then throughout the journey. Fat La.s.s remarked, “Sis Jing Chu, I’m confident that I can definitely lose weight successfully this time and have a figure like yours.”

“Alright, I’ll be waiting to see your results.”

….

It was almost evening by the time they reached the start of the river.

The water began flowing from the mountains. Jing Chu deduced, “The menacing beasts must be living in the mountains. Let’s take a break here tonight. My legs are almost breaking after a long day of walking…”

“Sis Jing Chu, look… look there…” Fat La.s.s spluttered, staring at a certain spot in utter shock and terror.

Jing Chu looked at the spot that she was staring at, only to discover that there were numerous pairs of eyes staring at them.

The pairs of eyes belonged to a bunch of bizarre-looking creatures. The duo could not tell what the creatures were at all. However, they were all identical and were ma.s.sive in size. Not to mention, they looked rather ferocious and menacing as well.

Jing Chu had never seen such creatures before. Frightened beyond words, her legs began to turn into jelly. However, she managed to keep her cool, unlike Fat La.s.s. After getting a grip on her emotions, Jing Chu frantically whipped out her guns and handed one to Fat La.s.s.

“Fat La.s.s… can you climb trees?”

“Yes.”

“Climb up the tree first. I’ll pa.s.s you the suitcases before climbing up later. Hurry, stop waiting around.”

“Sis Jing Chu, you go first.”

“No, you first.” She then whipped out a rope and tied it around the handle of the luggage. Without delay, Fat La.s.s hurriedly climbed up the tree.

Since she was dressed in thin clothing, it was inevitable for her to suffer abrasions on her legs. By the time Fat La.s.s had struggled to make her way up the tree, the friction had already ripped the skin off her flesh, causing her to feel a stinging pain in her legs.

Jing Chu flung the other end of the rope up toward the tree. After multiple attempts, Fat La.s.s finally grasped onto it while straddling a thick branch on the tree. She then pulled the suitcase up with all her might.

After Fat La.s.s pulled the suitcase up the tree, Jing Chu suddenly discovered that the unknown creatures had begun approaching them.

Instead of leaping toward them, the creatures were advancing slowly and quietly.

Jing Chu tried to climb up the tree but failed to do so even after several attempts because her legs were much weaker than she had imagined.

Pangs of panic engulfed her, and she struggled to climb up with all her might.

She felt much more relieved after making it onto the tree.

She grabbed onto the tree branch tightly and looked down.

The large creatures were crowding below the tree.

Jing Chu remained silent because she had yet to hear the noises made by the creatures.

All of a sudden, one of the creatures began charging toward the tree that Fat La.s.s was on, as if it had lost its temper.

Fat La.s.s was consumed by terror, and she began quivering tremendously before falling off the tree.

Jing Chu felt as if her heart was about to stop beating. Staring at the creature that was leaping toward Fat La.s.s, Jing Chu plunged from the tree and landed straight onto the creature.

At this moment, she finally heard the creatures conversing with each other. She tried to communicate with them in their language, “Why are you guys attacking us when we’re harmless?”

The pack of beasts began retreating.

Jing Chu took the chance to help the injured Fat La.s.s up. She then stared at the beasts, which started giving off danger signals. She then said, “We had no choice but to trespa.s.s. Please let us off.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the creatures turned around and began running away.

They were extremely quick, and the ma.s.sive number of beasts soon vanished out of sight.

Noticing that Fat La.s.s had begun bleeding from her forehead, Jing Chu frantically pulled the suitcases down and retrieved the first-aid kit. She helped Fat La.s.s clean her wound with some disinfectant liquid and cotton swabs before bandaging her head with some dressing. She then packed up.

“Sis… Jing Chu, I was scared soulless just now. What were you saying to those animals? I didn’t understand what you said at all,” Fat La.s.s murmured while clutching her chest and struggling to breathe. She was as pale as a sheet, clearly frightened out of her wits.

“I was speaking to them in their language. I pleaded with them to let us off.”

“Sis Jing Chu, you can communicate with animals?”

“Yes, I can.”

“How did you develop that skill? Did you inherit it from your parents?” Fat La.s.s asked in astonishment.

“No idea. I’ve never met my parents before anyway. The sky is about to turn dark. We must find a thick and st.u.r.dy tree to spend the night on,” Jing Chu said while scanning her surroundings.

“Sis Jing Chu, how about that one?” Fat La.s.s asked, pointing at a tall and st.u.r.dy tree that had a thick bark.

“We’ll climb onto that, then.” Jing Chu and Fat La.s.s moved the suitcases over before taking out their food rations and some tissue. Just as they were about to move the suitcases up the tree, the beasts returned.

Fat La.s.s began quaking in fear, the shock robbing her of her speech.

She had turned into jelly and could not make it up the tree even with Jing Chu’s help.

The beasts ran toward them and stopped when they were at a distance away. One of the female beasts said to Jing Chu, “We won’t hurt you guys. Our leader would like to invite you over to our place.”

Gripping the gun in her hand tightly, Jing Chu decided to trust them.

She then dragged the suitcases and followed the beasts together with Fat La.s.s. Jing Chu asked, “What breed do you all belong to? I’ve never seen such ma.s.sive creatures like you.”

She did not describe them as menacing, for fear that she might provoke them.

“Marsupial lions.”

Although Jing Chu did not know what exactly they were, she knew that they were definitely carnivorous, especially since they looked menacing.

“Why does your leader want us to go over?”

“Because you can communicate with us. We need humans like you.”

Jing Chu felt a huge sense of relief after hearing her words. She asked, “Are you guys the only animals here in this forest?”

The beasts began to guffaw.

Jing Chu could not help but get the chills.

Her palms began to get sweaty, and her heart palpitated vigorously to the extent that she felt as if it was about to jump out of her chest.

“Although that’s what we hope for, it’s unfortunately not the case. There are lots of animals in this forest. Some are of the same build as us while others are smaller.”

Fat La.s.s’s legs were aching beyond words. She was filled with pain from head to toe, especially after the great fall that she had just had. Hence, she was walking at a snail’s pace.

Jing Chu did not wish to walk either, for she was already dead beat after a long day of walking.

“How much further do we have to go?”

“Not too far. Shall we get one of us to carry you there?”

Jing Chu frantically declined, “No need for that, we can walk on our own.”

Even if the beasts were willing to carry them, they did not have the guts to ride on their backs.
