39: Chapter 39 The Girl's Adventure

On the other side.

Two young girls stepped out of a car on the highway.

Li Minmin looked at the dense forest of towering trees before her and couldn't help but swallow hard.

Turning to Ran Xiaoyue, she said, "Xiao Yueyue... are we really going into this dense forest? It's too dangerous... Did you see the livestream video from last time? There's a giant monster bird in there!"

Ran Xiaoyue looked at her best friend, Li Minmin, with some dissatisfaction at her sudden change of heart.

"If you don't want to go, then don't. I didn't ask you to come along!"

She brushed past Li Minmin and quickly ducked into the dense forest.

Li Minmin rolled her eyes and hurriedly chased after her.

"Fine! For the sake of that little Sparrow saving me, I'll help you look for him."

A smile appeared on Ran Xiaoyue's delicate face.

She knew Li Minmin was just acting tough; like her, she also wanted to find Little Phoenix.

After parting ways with Ye Yang on the outskirts of Jianghai City, the two girls had been constantly worried about the safety of the little Sparrow that had saved them.

They had originally thought that the clever little Sparrow, who could understand human speech, would fly back, but after waiting for so many days, the two girls began to grow anxious.

And so.

Today, they drove to the outskirts of Jianghai City to search for traces of the little Sparrow.

Finding a fist-sized Sparrow within a hundred-mile radius was an incredibly difficult task—it was like looking for a needle in a haystack!

Moreover, it was possible that the little Sparrow, Little Phoenix, had already left these mountains and forests, regaining its freedom and heading elsewhere.

Ran Xiaoyue and Li Minmin obviously knew this... and the outskirts were currently very dangerous, with that terrifying Prehistoric White-Feathered Great Eagle lurking about!

But they couldn't help it; though they had only spent a few days with the little Sparrow that hatched in their dormitory, the two girls had developed deep feelings for it.

They first went to the place where the wolf pack had appeared, but it was destined to be in vain; they found nothing.

Unwilling to give up, they continued to search cautiously through the mountain forest.

"Sigh... Xiao Yueyue, stop searching for a moment. Let's rest and eat; I'm starving!"

"Alright..."

The two girls sat before a flat rock and took out portable food like bread and fruit from their backpacks.

They chatted as they ate.

"Xiao Yueyue, searching like this isn't a long-term solution... plus, it's too dangerous here..."

Li Minmin said with some worry. Although they hadn't encountered any danger yet,

they had heard several tiger roars and wolf howls in the forest, which meant this forest was teeming with large predators.

"I know you miss that little Sparrow, Little Phoenix... but you can't risk your life to find him!"

Hearing this, Ran Xiaoyue took a bite of soft bread and nodded silently.

She let out a sigh.

"Minmin, don't worry, I know... I'm just reluctant to give up without finding Little Phoenix. If I can't find him in the outskirts this time, I'll let the idea go..."

"Phew... then I can rest easy..."

Li Minmin suggested, "This is already deep in the forest. Let's head back now. I believe Little Phoenix will definitely come find us in the future!"

"Alright..."

"Ah!!! A bear!!!"

Ran Xiaoyue looked behind her friend Li Minmin and actually saw a giant bear the size of a small truck! And it was a panda! It was only five meters behind Li Minmin!

Li Minmin, who was in the middle of eating a large mouthful of bread, froze. With her mouth stuffed, she slowly turned her head...

A panda with a naive and cute appearance appeared before her eyes...

But why was the Giant Panda as large as a small truck!

It was at least nearly three meters tall and five meters long!

What terrified the two girls even more was that this Giant Panda was currently staring at them, drooling!

*Gulp!*

Li Minmin struggled to swallow the bread in her mouth, then slowly pulled Ran Xiaoyue back.

The Giant Panda was also drooling, watching the two girls with bright eyes as it slowly approached, moving its paws...

The two girls were in despair, their faces pale and their legs trembling...

Although the Giant Panda hadn't attacked yet and looked very cute, the massive disparity in size caused uncontrollable fear and despair to well up in Li Minmin and Ran Xiaoyue's hearts.

"It's over! Xiao Yueyue, we're really dead this time!"

"Minmin, it's all my fault. If I hadn't dragged you to the outskirts to find Little Phoenix, we wouldn't be in danger..."

"No... I came here of my own free will, I don't blame you, Xiao Yue..."

"Ying ying ying..."

Just then, a clear sound came from the Giant Panda's mouth.

The two girls were stunned because this didn't sound like a predator hunting at all.

Observing the Giant Panda's expression more closely, they were surprised to find that its bright eyes seemed to be fixed on the bread in Li Minmin's hand.

"Could it be..."

Li Minmin slowly lifted the bread in her hand, and sure enough, she saw the Giant Panda's gaze shift, staring intently at the bread!

She immediately threw it far away!

Then she grabbed Ran Xiaoyue and ran back without looking behind her!

But ten seconds later, accompanied by the violent vibration of the ground, a massive black-and-white figure blocked their path.

Seeing the Giant Panda's bright eyes shining like stars, they understood that its meaning was that it wanted more bread.

"You can have all the bread!"

The two girls quickly tore open the bread packaging and threw all the bread in front of the panda.

"Ying ying ying!!!"

The Giant Panda ate more than half in one bite, making happy sounds with its mouth, and finished it all in a short while.

"Ying ying ying..."

The Giant Panda let out a clear cry towards the two girls.

It looked very cute, and the two girls knew it was asking for bread, but they were out of bread now!

They had completely given up on running; after all, the speed the Giant Panda had just shown far exceeded theirs.

Li Minmin shielded Ran Xiaoyue behind her, her face pale as she shook her head, "No more bread..."

The Giant Panda wrinkled its nose; not sensing the scent of the delicious food, its face showed a somewhat disappointed expression.

Spreading its paws, the bear sat on the spot, leaning against a rock to doze off, seemingly savoring the delicious food from just now.

Li Minmin and Ran Xiaoyue breathed a sigh of relief.

"This Giant Panda is so big, and it looks so cute! It seems quite smart too."

"Since the appearance of spiritual energy, I haven't seen a panda this large..."

"Let's leave here first..."

"Wait!"

Ran Xiaoyue's eyes lit up!

This Giant Panda seemed to have high intelligence, so it might know where Little Phoenix is!

After all, Little Phoenix also grew very fast, could understand human speech, and had high intelligence!

"Don't go over there, the Giant Panda is dangerous..."

Ignoring Li Minmin's attempt to stop her, she went before the Giant Panda and drew the shape of a bird on the ground.

The Giant Panda opened its bright eyes and looked at the shape the strange two-legged beast had drawn on the ground...

Looks familiar... that's the Boss!

"Giant Panda, if you can lead me to find this Sparrow... there's plenty more of this bread..."

She held up the bread packaging with a trembling hand.

Boss... delicious food...

Because of the delicious food, the Giant Panda's brain became active. Its eyes lit up, and it stood up, startling them.

"Ying ying ying..."

It let out a call to the two girls, signaling them to follow.

The two girls looked at each other and followed.

"Ying ying ying!"

After a while, the Giant Panda felt the two-legged beasts behind it were too slow. At this rate, when would it get to eat that delicious food!

This wouldn't do! It directly carried them on its back and sped forward!

It was like a truck going at full speed!

After their terrified screams, the two girls found that the Giant Panda's back was very steady and breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, they had a doubt in their hearts: where was this huge, cute, and smart Giant Panda taking them?

An hour later.

In front of a large mountain, looking at the colossus blocking their way, Li Minmin and Ran Xiaoyue were in despair!

This Giant Panda had actually brought them before a massive Brown Bear!

What made them even more desperate was that... this Brown Bear's eyes were filled with hunger as it watched them, exactly like the look of someone seeing food when they first encountered the Giant Panda.

The difference was, the Giant Panda wanted to eat bread...

While this Big Brown Bear wanted to eat them...
