Chapter 30 Arrival at the Plains
Another peaceful and tranquil night passed quietly, and as dawn broke, Ruan Mianmian opened her eyes early.
She gazed silently at the enormous python beneath her, a faint smile involuntarily creeping onto her lips.
In this world full of unknowns and dangers, nothing seemed to provide her with a sense of security like that of the giant snake.
Every night, she could always snuggle up to it with peace of mind, feeling its warm and solid body, as if all her fears and worries had been left far behind.
"Good morning, Ruanruan."
Sen's deep, magnetic voice broke the morning's tranquility.
It turned out that he had been awake for a long time, but he had remained still because he was worried about waking the little female who was still sleeping.
He only cautiously raised his head when he noticed the change in the little female's breathing rhythm.
"Good morning, Sen," Ruan Mianmian replied, stretching lazily as she enjoyed the moment.
After getting up from the giant snake, she took a deep breath of fresh air and exclaimed with emotion: What a wonderful sleep I had! It seems that humans are indeed social creatures; it feels really good to have others by your side.
"Ruan Ruan, hurry up and eat some breakfast. If we travel as fast as we can today, we should be able to get back to our habitat. Once we get back, you can have a good rest."
Sen felt a pang of sympathy seeing the little female's slightly tired expression. The females from other tribes stayed in the best caves in their tribes, where they had no worries about food and drink.
But the little female beside him was living a life of hardship, never even getting a hot meal of roasted meat. As a male, he really was quite pathetic.
However, it will take him about another week to transform into human form, so the little female will have to suffer during this time.
Upon hearing Sen's words, Ruan Mianmian habitually took out the rabbit meat she had roasted the day before yesterday to eat.
Actually, she was already tired of this barbecue without any seasoning, but she still couldn't be sure whether Sen was trustworthy, so she couldn't reveal that she could produce food for the time being.
Sen glanced at the dry rabbit meat in Ruan Mianmian's hand and sighed helplessly. He decided that he must find her something better to eat today to make up for what he had neglected her for the past few days.
So, on the rest of his journey, Mori paid closer attention to his surroundings, searching for possible food sources. Finally, while passing through a grove of trees, he discovered a tree laden with fruit.
Sen excitedly climbed the tree, picked some ripe fruit, and handed it to Ruan Mianmian. Ruan Mianmian happily took the fruit, took a bite, and her mouth was immediately filled with sweet juice.
"Delicious!" she laughed happily; this was the most delicious thing she had eaten since she came into this world.
Seeing her smile, Sen felt a surge of relief. He secretly resolved that once they returned to their habitat, he would find a way to give her a better life.
Sitting atop Sen's head, Ruan Mianmian watched as the trees changed from lush green to a slightly yellowish hue, and she knew they would soon be leaving the Lala Mountains.
She was slightly excited as she looked at the scenery ahead, because stepping out of the Lala Mountains meant that she was about to step into a whole new world.
She imagined with great anticipation what the outside world would be like, her heart filled with curiosity.
However, when they finally stepped out of the Lala Mountains, Ruan Mianmian was stunned by the sight before her.
Before her stretched an endless plain, overgrown with wild grass taller than herself. A breeze blew, creating a scene of golden waves rippling through the wheat.
Ruan Mianmian looked at the vast plain in surprise, a strange excitement welling up in her heart.
She jumped off Sen and ran through the grass, feeling the gentle breeze on her face.
Sen followed quietly behind her, a hint of tenderness in his eyes.
He knew that for Ruan Mianmian, who had always lived in the mountains, this plain was undoubtedly a completely unfamiliar world.
When Ruan Mianmian got tired of running, she stopped and looked up at the sky. The sky was as blue as a jewel, with white clouds floating in it. She took a deep breath, reveling in the fresh air.
"This place is so beautiful..." Ruan Mianmian exclaimed. "But how are we going to get across this plain?"
Sen pointed into the distance and told her that after crossing the plains there was a valley, and that was their destination.
But to get there, they had to cross this vast grassland, and they might encounter various dangers along the way.
Ruan Mianmian showed no fear, her eyes shining with determination.
She believed that as long as she was with Sen, they would be able to overcome all difficulties and reach that place full of hope.
So the two embarked on a journey across the plains together.
