Chapter 192 Familiar Little Animals Reappear
When Liang He and Holder successfully arrived at the water source with the two beasts, Cedril glanced at the Mengji Snow Leopard with disdain without being noticed.

I don't know how Kuang Ye became an Imperial General. Is he just simple-minded and relies entirely on brute force?

If Liang He hadn't called him back in time, he would have been running off somewhere by now.

Oh, or it's possible that it will break through the fence, lose control and fall into the river, gulp down some poisoned water, and finally lie unconscious in bed like a metal-eating beast.

"Cedriel, what are you thinking about?"

Liang He walked up to Mo Jin Wang Hu and touched his head in confusion.

She wanted him and Mengji Snow Leopard to sniff around and see if there was anything unusual about the smell, but Kuang Ye came running over in a flash, while Mo Jin Wang Hu remained motionless.

"Ouch?"

Oh dear, Kuang Ye was taking this too seriously. Cedril didn't even hear Liang He calling him. What a disaster! What a disaster...

"Are you tired? Sorry, we haven't been able to catch the bad guys, so we had to trouble you guys for help. Thank you for your hard work."

Liang He gently hugged Mo Jin Wang Hu, feeling like she was squeezing the furry creature.

They know nothing and could live happily, but now they have to stay up all night, bring her and Holden to the center of the forest, and help find the bad guys.

"Ouch!"

Cedril wanted to say that he wasn't tired and that he was happy to help Liang He, but all that came out of his mouth was a groan.

He sighed silently, affectionately nuzzled Liang He's palm, and then walked to the riverbank to begin his work.

"Meow?"

The snow leopard hadn't figured out what was going on yet, but fortunately, Mo Jin Wang Hu explained it to Liang He to put her mind at ease, and then the two beasts started sniffing around.

"Liang He, is this really going to work?"

Holder was still a little apprehensive.

To be honest, having a Federation Marshal and an Imperial General on the battlefield to kill the enemy is no problem at all, and Holder is full of confidence.

He couldn't believe that they could find the poisoner by smell.

They might not even be as good as military dogs.

"Let's give it a try. You stay here with them, and I'll keep an eye on things from the outside."

Liang He warned Mengji Snow Leopard and Mojin Wanghu not to get too close to the water source, or they might fall in.

In fact, the Mengji Snow Leopard does not like water, so Liang He is more worried about the Mojin King Tiger, who loves to play in the water.

"Cedriel, you absolutely mustn't play in the water here! The water's not clean, it'll make you sick, you know?"

“…Ouch.”

Cedril felt helpless, as if his image was completely ruined, but he was also happy to receive Liang He's concern, so he could only respond obediently to put her at ease.

After confirming that both animals understood, Liang He finally felt relieved and left, crossing the fence to search for any small animals that might have seen the suspicious person.

"The commotion a few days ago was too big. I don't know if these little animals will dare to come again?"

Liang He muttered to herself as she searched.

The heart of the forest was originally a remote place where animals could drink water and meet their basic needs, except for having to be wary of predators.

However, since the water poisoning incident, hundreds of animals have fallen into a coma, which, to other animals, looks more like an immediate death.

It's normal for them to feel scared, anxious, and hesitant to approach.

"Uh-huh……"

The sudden squeal of a pig caught Liang He's attention.

Thinking it was some wild boar, she became alert and looked around, but found nothing unusual.

There was nothing but swaying tree shadows.

Until she looked up as if suddenly realizing something, and saw one of the trees.

"Koala?"

Aside from wild boars, only koalas probably know how to squeal like pigs. Oh, but it's innate; who can imitate it is hard to say. What she said isn't quite accurate.

"Hiccup... Hmm!"

Liang He approached quietly, so as not to frighten the little guy.

When she stood under the tree and took a closer look, she realized that it was not only a koala, but also an old acquaintance.

It's the one that the snow leopard used as a bag to hold pine cones.

"Oh, it's you."

Liang He tiptoed, slowly reached out, and gently stroked the koala. Only after confirming that it did not reject her and had gotten used to being stroked did she pick it up.

It wasn't that she was thinking about petting the furry thing at the crucial moment; it was just that tilting her head back and standing on tiptoe was too tiring, and she couldn't keep it up for long.

"You've moved?"

Liang He poked the little guy's cheek in confusion.

The place where the snow leopard stole pine cones was quite a distance from here. Koalas are slow-moving, so it's unlikely they would have run from here to there to wait for the snow leopard.

Besides, if they were really that far away, they probably wouldn't have been caught by the snow leopard and used as labor.

"Liang He? Liang He!"

Liang He has been gone for some time now. They had agreed to talk to each other every now and then to check on Liang He's safety.

Of course, this also serves to keep Liang He from wandering too far, otherwise Holder wouldn't let her walk alone in the forest.

Even without bad people, there are still many wild beasts deep in the forest, and we have to be careful.

"coming!"

After searching for so long, the koala was Liang He's only find, so she had no choice but to take it with her and meet up with Holder first.

"Meow?"

When Liang He reappeared in front of the man and the two beasts, they all relaxed without prior agreement.

Besides Liang He, the Mengji Snow Leopard also seemed to recognize the koala in her arms and curiously moved closer.

"Hiccup... Hmm!"

"Huh? It couldn't be..."

Hearing the familiar pig squeals, Holder was reminded of the pine cone incident.

He even used this to mock the snow leopard for a while, and secretly recorded it, planning to show it to Kuang Ye after he had passed the evolutionary period and regained his senses.

"Well, that's it."

Liang He hugged the koala and sat down on a big rock, patting its back reassuringly.

Looking at its sluggish expression, I suddenly felt that its nature was quite good; at least it wouldn't be easily frightened. Perhaps that's why it still stayed near the water source.

Why wasn't it poisoned?

Holder found it a bit strange. If the koala lived near the water source, why didn't it get poisoned and fall into a coma like other small animals?

"Koalas eat eucalyptus leaves, from which they obtain the water they need, and do not require additional water."

When she first encountered the koala, she made a point of learning about its habits in order to make up for the lack of koalas in the snow leopard.

"Eucalyptus leaves contain a mild toxin, which is why it appears sluggish. Other animals don't eat eucalyptus leaves, so they naturally ignore it."

The saying "true hermits live in the city" probably describes something like a koala.

Thinking about it this way, the little guy is quite wise.

"How come I remember it having a girlfriend back then?"

Holder recalled how the koala had taken its future wife to find the snow leopard, wanting to experience the fun of a couple riding a snow leopard together, which had infuriated the snow leopard.

"I thought it was courting Kuang Ye, which made me so happy."
