Don't farm, cultivate immortality!

Seeing this, Yunling couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.

Zhuang Xing was amused; these little pandas were truly a loving family.

Chapter 148 is going to be made into jerky

Looking at the five red pandas' silly appearance, Zhuang Xing didn't think they could harm anyone.

He must have been so hungry that he approached him and Yunling, wanting those two guokui (a type of flatbread) to eat.

With heavy snow in recent years, winters have been unbearable, so it's no wonder they've come here.

Although their names contain the word "bear," they cannot hibernate like bears. Even if they store food before winter, they will eat more as they burn more calories when the weather gets cold.

It was already deep winter, and they probably ran out of food before coming out of the mountains.

Zhuang Xing didn't want to make things difficult for them, but he still wanted to let them know that it was wrong to scare others and steal their things.

He waved his hand, dispelling the effect of the Wind Concealment Talisman, and stepped out from behind the tree.

Seeing that he was no longer hiding it, Yunling appeared with him.

However, the five red pandas over there were still arguing, their minds completely elsewhere.

It seemed as if all they could see were those two pancakes.

You take a bite, I take a bite, and the two pancakes are torn to pieces.

It was the red panda in the lead that saw the two Taoist priests and paused for a moment.

"Stop arguing, someone's coming!"

When they fight over the cake, they argue back and forth, but when something actually happens, they are surprisingly united.

The eldest reminded them, and the remaining four little guys immediately let go of the biscuits in their mouths.

After all, they are not domesticated red pandas; they live in the wild and are very wary.

They act one way internally and another way externally.

Fog rose nearby, and from within the fog, a white-eyed tiger with a drooping forehead leaped out.

The tiger roared loudly and danced in the snow.

Lifelike, powerful and majestic, full of imposing presence.

But Zhuang Xing and Yun Ling already knew this was a smokescreen, so why were they afraid?

The two watched the tiger perform quietly.

The atmosphere became a little awkward. The tiger kept roaring in place, but it couldn't scare away the Taoist priest in front of it, and it didn't dare to pounce on him.

After calling out a few times, its voice grew softer and softer.

"Big brother, they're not afraid!"

The tiger turned around and looked back.

"Idiot, run!"

"If you get caught, you'll be turned into jerky!"

Shouts came from the fog.

"Wow, I don't want to be turned into jerky!"

"Don't leave me, big brother!"

A wisp of blue smoke rose from around the tiger, and the two red pandas tumbled and fell onto the snow like balls of yarn, scattering and fleeing in all directions.

While the tiger was performing, Zhuang Xing and Yunling had already quietly discussed their strategy.

He drew his sword, rode it into the air, and the blade flew through the thick fog, embedding itself in front of a red panda.

The red bear was hiding in the snow; it was the red bear that controlled the mist magic.

The simplest way to break this illusion is to make the caster panic and lose focus, making it easier for them to slip up. If they are terrified, the spell will immediately lose its power.

The gleaming longsword was stuck in front of the red panda, startling it greatly.

The fog suddenly dissipated.

Without cover, the four red pandas were very conspicuous in the snow, and they ran out with all their might with their short legs.

"It's going to be turned into jerky!"

They cried out in alarm, utterly panicked.

Upon seeing them, Yunling took out the seeds from her bosom, infused them with her true qi, and scattered them out.

The seeds grew rapidly, transforming into vines that spread and extend.

These are the seeds of the Heart-Protecting Vine. The seeds are very rigid in Zhuang Xing's hands, showing no change whatsoever.

But in Yunling's hands, it took on a completely different form.

As long as there is true qi to nourish it, the seed will not easily wither.

The vines, like snakes, crawled on the ground and in an instant bound the four red pandas.

The Heart-Protecting Vine is a spiritual plant cultivated from the Killer Vine. Even if a person were to chop it with an axe, it would be difficult for them to break free of the Killer Vine, let alone these little red pandas.

Once they're tied up, they have no chance of escaping.

They all burst into tears.

"No, I don't want to be turned into jerky..."

"Big brother, help me..."

Zhuang Xing turned around and saw a red panda baring its teeth and lunging at him.

Its face was ferocious, finally resembling that of a wild beast.

Red pandas are already small, just like cats, and when they become sentient, they become even more agile.

It actually dodged Yunling's protective vine. When the vine tried to catch it, it flipped over and climbed up the vine.

Zhuang Xing raised his hand, and the sword flew back into his grasp.

He swung his sword at the red panda, but the red panda didn't dodge.

Upon closer inspection, Zhuang Xingcai noticed that the leading red panda had several wounds on its body and was even blind in one eye.

Zhuang Xing understood. No wonder the four tied-up red pandas called out loudly for their eldest brother when they were scared.

Zhuang Xing sighed slightly, not wanting to hurt it any further. He changed his sword technique, tapping its back with the back of his sword and knocking it to the ground.

The Taoist robe was torn open, but the last red panda was also bound by Yunling with the Heart-Protecting Vine.

The Red Panda gang that robbed the guokui (a type of flatbread) has now been completely apprehended.

The Heart-Protecting Vine contracted, bringing all five red pandas back.

Yunling looked at the wound on Zhuang Xing's wrist. Although it was shallow, it was indeed bleeding a little.

She looked on with concern, then at the red pandas that were tied up, and no longer found them cute at all.

"You're injured..."

She tenderly took out the medicine and applied it to Zhuang Xing's wound.

"It's just a scratch, nothing serious," Zhuang Xing said.

Four out of the five red pandas are crying.

They were hung up, looking a bit like dried meat hanging outside to dry in the wind.

"It's going to turn into jerky..."

"Waaaaah..."

Only the eldest brother didn't cry, but he was trembling with fear.

"No...don't be afraid!" the eldest brother said. "I'm not afraid at all!"

The little guy was talking, but his legs were shaking.

Yunling looked at it with a hint of reproach; if it weren't for it, Zhuang Xing wouldn't have been injured.

Zhuang walked up and looked at it.

All the other red pandas were crying, but this one seemed like it could be communicated with.

"Turn me into jerky," the little guy said, trembling. "Don't eat my brother."

Did I say I was going to turn you into jerky?

"If you're not going to make jerky, why did you capture us?"

"You stole our bread."

"You threw the bread down there yourselves."

"rational."

"Right, let us go."

"No."

"why?"

"Because you stole our bread."

"..."

"I'm going to ask you a few questions. Answer them truthfully."

"Will you let us go if we tell you?"

"Not necessarily, but I definitely won't let you go until you tell me."

"Then ask away."

"How long has it been since you last ate anything?"

"It's been three or four days. We've eaten all the fruit in the cave, so we came out to find something to eat."
