My husband is too wild, I need to go home and find my mom.

Chapter 216 Picking Peaches and Digging Bamboo Shoots

Linni picked peaches and threw them down the tree for them to catch. After picking most of the ripe peaches on the tree, Linni looked down at the ground with satisfaction and said, "Yao, I'm going to jump down, catch me!"

Yao looked up at her with affection: "Jump, I'm sure I can catch you."

"I'm here!" Linni jumped down towards him.

Yao held Lin Ni firmly in his arms, and Lin Ni laughed freely in Yao's embrace. After playing in Yao's arms for a while, she wanted to dig for bamboo shoots. She had never done either of these things before, so now that she had the chance, she naturally wanted to have some fun.

Tian Tian said, "I'll go to the bear beast and get a bamboo basket to put these peaches in, otherwise I won't be able to bring them back."

Lin Ni glanced at the pile of peaches at Yao's feet, while Yan and Tian Tian, ​​whom she had tossed to him, were both holding them in their arms.

Yao said to Tiantian, "Go and get it, we still need to pack bamboo shoots later."

Tian Tian replied with an "okay" and ran off.

It rains all the time in this rainforest, and the bamboo shoots keep growing in batches. There are so many black and white bears that they can't possibly eat them all. The bamboo forest is getting denser and denser, and it's almost grown into a bamboo wall.

Lin Ni went to dig bamboo shoots with Yao and Yan. She used the power of the Beast God to condense a broad blade and began digging. Yan helped her hold the tip of the bamboo shoot, and she used the broad blade to pry it up from the soil underneath. She was quite fast.

Tian Tian quickly returned with two bamboo baskets. Lin Ni, having just finished digging up some bamboo shoots and getting tired of picking peaches and digging bamboo shoots, said to Tian Tian, ​​"I'm a little tired. We have two bamboo baskets, so let's fill one basket with peaches and the other with bamboo shoots and go home."

Tiantian: "Okay."

Lin Ni sat in Yao's lap eating freshly picked peaches, while Yan and Tian Tian each took turns filling a bag with peaches and bamboo shoots, respectively.

Lin Ni had just finished eating the peach in her hand when Tian Tian came over and asked, "Lin, do you want another peach?"

Lin Ni shook her head, about to reply, when she suddenly looked at her left arm, rolled up the sleeve to take a look, and looked up at Yao, saying, "Yao, Bai's partner mark got warm just now... Ah~ Ye's partner mark reacted too."

Yao said, "They should have already reached the Bear Beast Tribe. Sensing their location, can you tell where they are?"

Linni closed her eyes and sensed for a moment, then opened them and said, "I feel like Bai is inside the tribe, but Ye is outside."

At this moment, Yan also came over carrying the basket of bamboo shoots. Yao said, "Let's go outside and look for Ye."

Ye, being a snake-beastman, is more likely to cause misunderstandings. Bai and Sheng are together, and Sheng has been to the bear-beast tribe before, so let's go find Ye.

Linni nodded and said, "Okay, let's go then."

Yan, carrying the basket of bamboo shoots, and Tian, ​​holding the basket of peaches, followed behind Yao and asked, "Have Lin's other partners come?"

Linni nodded, pointing out directions to Yao while saying to Tiantian, "Ye is an eighth-level snake beastman, my second partner, and Bai is a ninth-level white tiger beastman, my fourth partner." Linni then briefly described their personalities.

In general, in Linni's eyes, they all had very good tempers, were very attentive, and were very capable. Yan actually had a different opinion, but he didn't say anything.

Yao followed her directions and walked south. Ten minutes later, he saw Ye at the edge of the bamboo forest.

At this moment, Ye was pursing her lips, helplessly flicking her snake tail.

A dozen or so bear-like beasts of various colors were growling at Ye in low voices. Most of the bear-like beasts looked a bit disheveled, and many of the bamboo around them were broken. It seemed that they had already fought a battle. However, although the bear-like beasts were no match for Ye, they still blocked his way and prevented him from entering the bamboo forest.

"Night!" Lin Ni called out happily, jumped out of Yao's arms, and ran towards him.

When the bear-like beasts saw Linni approaching, two of them quickly separated to block her, letting out a soft call, probably to tell her: the snake-like beast is dangerous?

Upon seeing Lin Ni, Ye happily called out, "Lin!"

Tian Tian Mang walked over and said, "You guys move aside, that's Lin's companion, not a wandering beastman."

The bears only made way for Linni after listening to Tiantian's words.

He rushed over and hugged Lin Ni tightly, then let go of her and looked her up and down for a while before hugging her again: "It's good that you're alright!"

Linni hugged him back: "Yes, I'm fine! Yao came to save me just in time."

Ye glanced at Yao, then lowered his head and kissed Lin Ni.

"Mmm~" Lin Ni's first reaction was to struggle. Mr. Ye would kiss her passionately without regard for the occasion. However, considering that he was indeed worried, she obediently let him kiss her to his heart's content.

Tian Tian put down the basket of peaches, checked on the bears, and, making sure they were alright, let them go. The bears then dispersed back into the bamboo forest to resume their sentry duties.

Yao looked at the departing bear-beasts and said, "I didn't see any of these bear-beasts in the middle of the bamboo forest."

Tian Tian said, "Most of the wandering orcs can't fly, so most of the bear beasts stay on the outskirts of the bamboo forest."

Yao nodded in understanding; no wonder he hadn't seen any bear-like beasts when he arrived yesterday morning.

Ye finally let go of Lin Ni, and Lin Ni pulled Ye over to Tian Tian and said to Ye, "Ye, this is Tian Tian."

Tian Tian obediently called out, "Hello, Night!"

Ye's gaze had been fixed on Lin Ni the whole time. When he saw Tian Tian leaning against Lin Ni from behind, his chest almost touching her shoulder, Ye immediately pulled Lin Ni closer and glared at Tian Tian. Tian Tian immediately straightened up awkwardly.

Lin Ni reached out and took Tian Tian's hand, saying to Ye, "Ye, I've already agreed to be with him."

Upon hearing this, Ye carefully looked Tian Tian up and down, frowned, and said, "You can only follow Lin for now. You can only become her partner when you reach level seven."

Tian Tian nodded and said, "I understand."

Night added, still worried, "If you dare disobey, I'll bite you to death."

Linni tugged at Ye's hand and said, "Ye, he's very obedient."

Ye nodded without saying anything more, then picked Lin Ni up in his arms and said, "Where do you live? Let's go back."

Lin Ni gave Tian Tian a comforting smile before saying to Ye, "Bai and the others have arrived too. Let's go find them first."

Yao said to Tian Tian, ​​"Let's go."

Tian Tian picked up Tao Zi again and followed Ye into the tribe with Yao and Yan.

As they walked, Ye asked, "Lin, those two wandering orcs didn't bully you, did they?"

Linni shook her head and said, "They dragged me through the tunnels for half a day. When we got to a cave, they wanted to bully me, but I protected myself with a shield. Then I remembered that I could notify you through the Partner Seal, and then Yao came. Luckily, it was a close call."

Actually, if Yao had arrived ten seconds later, she might have been bullied by the wandering orcs. It was a close call, but she made it through safely, so there was no need to tell them and scare them.
