Chief Mary left, and the elephants circled her all day long, day and night, their countless trunks touching her.

As an adult male elephant, Chu Yi squeezed into the herd, and no one drove it away.

Chu Yi stood beside Lan Xiaoxiao, comforting her. It gazed at Mary, remembering this relative.

Mary was very old and must have been in poor health along the way, but she still persevered and completed the entire migration without collapsing, bringing all her children to the final destination.

The previous leaders of this elephant herd were Mary's mother, then Mary's sister, and finally Mary herself.

Now that Mary is gone, the new chief is Mary's eldest daughter, Angie, who is the oldest elephant in the herd and is over fifty years old.

The Mary family was deeply saddened by the passing of their loved one and remained around the body.

The sun scorched them, the rain washed them away, and the elephants turned into skeletons, yet the herd remained there, unwilling to go far.

Lan Xiaoxiao was also absent-minded when she ate grass. Lan Xiaoxiao followed Chu Yi for a walk.

First year of junior high: "Grandma passed away peacefully because our migration went smoothly. During the rainy season, food was plentiful, and we were all doing well."

Lan Xiaoxiao: "Yes, and we also remembered how to get to the tourist area on the outskirts of the grassland. It led us through the entire round trip twice."

Chu Yi gently pinched her nose and said, "So baby, don't be sad for too long. Grandma also hopes we can be okay."

"I understand the reasoning, but I'm still very sad because I'll never see it again and can only remember it through memories."

"Maybe you can see it, but it's just that everyone has forgotten their past life memories after reincarnation." Chu Yi understands more now and can also talk about topics like reincarnation.

"I forgot... this kind of encounter... sigh, I don't have God's perspective." Lan Xiaoxiao shook her nose in distress, her only consolation being, "At first, thankfully we both always remember. What if we both forgot? Would God let us meet again? What would it feel like to meet again after forgetting?"

Lan Xiaoxiao kept asking herself these questions, and the more she thought about it, the more panicked she became, and she started to feel anxious.

First year of junior high: "When I was a dog, I forgot about you a little, but I always had a feeling in my heart that I would try my best to find you and remember you. I believe that if you have forgotten, it must be the same. We will not be separated, and we will meet again next time."

Hearing these words, Lan Xiaoxiao felt a little relieved. She looked up at the blue sky and said, "Please, don't let me forget. Let me meet Chu Yi in every lifetime. Let my relatives in every lifetime be around me. I know that each of my prayers is more greedy than the last, but I am greedy! Please!"

The little bear shouted to the sky.

In the first year of junior high school, the same words were repeated in his mind over and over again; it was also asking for something.

Heaven will hear the cries of these two little animals and grant their greed.

Mary's death cast a somber mood over the entire elephant herd.

Many elephants, having eaten little grass and leaves, have become thin.

My cousin has been pregnant for a year, and her belly has grown noticeably. The elephants' attention has started to shift to her belly.

The elephant's trunk gently stroked the swollen belly, and not far away lay Mary's skeleton; death and rebirth arrived at the same time.

Angie was afraid that everyone would be too sad, and that the pregnant Xiang would also be immersed in these emotions, which would not be good for the baby in her belly.

Angie imitated Mary, calling the entire elephant herd together, and then they walked into the distance.

Let's leave here and go to another meadow.

The grassy area where we landed wasn't far from here, so if I missed Mary, I could run back to visit her.

Lan Xiaoxiao and Chu Yi would often take a walk after dinner and then come back to check on each other.

During this long rainy season, some wild male elephants went into heat and fought to woo females in their families, but none of the females went out to date them.

Everyone was quietly waiting for the baby in my cousin's belly to be born.

My little cousin is already six years old. He's quite mischievous, but he only recently realized that he's going to be an uncle, and he's become much more mature.

Zhang Wang located the elephant herd based on the location and observed it from a distance with binoculars. Upon closer inspection, he immediately noticed that one elephant was missing, and it was the most eye-catching one at that.

Zhang Wang's throat tightened: "Mary..."

Zhang Wang picked a bunch of wildflowers nearby, drove around the area, and after searching for two hours, found Mary's remains.

Zhang Wang got out of the car and placed the flowers next to the ivory.

Zhang Wang stayed there for half an hour. Just as he was about to get into the car, he turned around and saw two elephants slowly walking towards him in the distance.

The male elephant's long tusks were particularly eye-catching, while the female elephant's tusks were shorter. The two giants slowly walked over.

Lan Xiaoxiao and Chu Yi looked around and saw the flowers on the ground.

Lan Xiaoxiao hooked Zhang Wang's arm with her trunk. "Long time no see."

It's been half a year since we last met. The last time we saw each other was when we were eating watermelon in the tourist area on the outskirts.

"I brought apples this time, originally to deliver fruit to you, but I found out... Mary is amazing, she's the oldest wild elephant I know of on this continent." Zhang Wang didn't intend to talk about these things anymore, lest they become sad.

Zhang Wang took two hands, one in each hand holding an elephant's trunk, and led them to his car: "Come on, let's eat some apples. I brought a lot, enough for your whole herd."
