What to do if you become a beast

Chapter 157 Meat Cocoon and Overwintering

A small basket simply assembled with rattan and big leaves was filled with palm-sized red and white-spotted mushrooms. The blue-spotted mushroom man trotted all the way to a cave by stepping on the traces made by dragging heavy objects on the ground.

The giant beast that almost hit it was lying here quietly.

At this moment, the flesh and blood on the monster's body kept wriggling, and the fleshy mucus film remaining on his body spread more and more, almost covering his entire body, and was still rushing inward.

Stepping into the cave, it carefully looked at the giant beast a few times, and approached slowly after making sure that there was no problem.

After circling a large number of giant beasts again, the blue mushroom man looked at the red and white-spotted mushrooms in the basket with a bit of pain in his heart.

After hesitating for a moment, he finally took out most of it, crushed it all and sprinkled it on every part of the giant beast's body.

"Yo hoo~"

It was a little apprehensive at first, but when it saw that the mushroom was quickly melted into a liquid and disappeared on the giant beast, it jumped up and down happily.

It stepped aside, moved a stone to make a chair for itself, and just sat there looking at the giant beast expectantly.

But it waited and waited, the flesh and blood on the monster's body was still wriggling irregularly, and there was no other movement.

"Huh?"

It tilted its head, a little confused.

Turning his head to look at the red mushrooms left in the basket, he gritted his teeth and was about to sprinkle all of them on the giant beast.

Suddenly, the giant beast's body broke out into an extremely violent struggle, and the aura that was strong and weak constantly rose and fell on him.

The originally slow-moving flesh and blood became extremely violent, as if another creature was constantly moving in the giant beast's body, gnawing on his body!
How could a little mushroom man survive such a terrifying scene.

"ah--"

It was so frightened on the spot that it let out a strange cry, ignored everything, jumped off the stone stool, spread its short legs and rushed out.

Seeing that he was about to run out of the cave, he suddenly realized that he still had half a basket of mushrooms left, so he gritted his teeth and rushed back, taking the basket in his hand.

Snapped!
A strange roar suddenly came from the giant beast's body, and countless tentacle-like granulation popped out of the flesh-colored film covering his body, scaring the mushroom man into a stunned place, unable to move at all.

But in the end it was only drawn by one of the granulation, and even the mushroom man and the mushroom were directly drawn out of the cave.

Immediately afterwards, all the granulation sprouts that flew out stuck to the mountain wall, each dancing like a cocoon, wrapping the giant beast layer by layer and sealing it off!

Not long after, even its original appearance was no longer visible, only a fleshy cocoon that was still struggling and wriggling inside was left with countless fleshy tissues connected to the cave wall.

The blue-spotted mushroom man standing at the entrance of the cave looked at everything in the cave in shock, and with his little brain, he couldn't understand what happened.

Seeing that the meat cocoon was still jumping out of the granulation tissue and overlapping, almost completely occupying the cave, it didn't dare to stay at all, for fear that it would be sucked in by that inexplicable monster, so it turned around and ran away.

One day, two days, three days.

Four days later, the blue-spotted mushroom man returned.

This time, it also brought a frog with a metallic shiny stone on its back, and a trace of fine lightning flashed on it from time to time.

"Quack?"

The frog reached out and patted the mushroom man with a puzzled tone.

Nourishes—

"babble--"

Immediately, an electric current penetrated the mushroom man's whole body from its hand, and the opponent was shocked on the spot, with a faint smoke emitting from his body, exuding a bit of burnt breath.

But there is nothing serious about the Mushroom Man!
Although it was used to it, it still glared at the stone-backed frog, pointed to the hole, and signaled it to be quiet.

"Yeah!"

A mushroom man and a frog slowed down, like a little partner on an adventure, slowly approaching the cave.

One up and one down poked out a small half of the head, but the mushroom and the frog were completely stunned on the spot.

The granulation tissue that was originally ejected and almost occupied the cave has now shrunk by half, retracted, and many of them were directly dried up, broken and scattered all over the place.

While the previously wriggling meat cocoon was tightly wrapped, the outside was completely formed with a hard shell.

Through the tiny cracks, four-color clouds can be vaguely seen flowing in it, as if the inside has been replaced by other substances.

The most obvious thing is that there is a continuous rising and falling breath on the meat cocoon.

When it is strong, it is no different from the commanding rank, and when it is weak, it is also at the general rank.

The breath kept sweeping around, almost branding the surrounding area as its own territory, so that after such a long time, no other beasts dared to come over to find out.

That is to say, the blue-spotted mushroom man is not very smart, and the nervous guy doesn't care if there are so many.

Seeing that nothing was wrong, the mushroom man was about to go in, but was grabbed by the frog, "croak!"

Nourishes—

The mushroom man was shocked again, and stopped moving.

The stone-backed frog looked scared, danced and yelled and jumped.

It doesn't look like a decent creature, so pull it in and seek death?
"Yeah!"

The blue mushroom man shook his head and gestured a few times.

The big guy fell asleep when he saw it. This is their winter place, so it's okay to be with him!

The stone-backed frog was stunned for a moment, not knowing whether it was marveling at the guts of the mushroom man or doubting its brain.

But it looked inside the cave, it was dry, warm, and spacious, and the breath of giant beasts could dispel the threat, and then looked outside with the withered trees and the howling wind.

The environment comparison is simply not too bad!

"Ah..."

It hesitated, saying that it would take a look first.

"Yeah!"

The mushroom man nodded in satisfaction, and immediately called the rock-backed frog into the cave together.

……

Time passes day by day.

At the beginning, the frog and the mushroom man were quite cautious and only dared to stay at the entrance of the cave, and only used the space in the cave to store food for the winter, including the dried meat with shrunken granulation on the giant beast, which they also put away for another storage.

Although it looks scary, if there is not enough food, what is there to eat!

And with the aura of giant beasts in the cave, and no other beasts nearby will approach at will, safety is not a problem.

The two little guys lived more and more comfortably.

November passed.

As December comes, the temperature drops sharply, the wind howls, and snowflakes begin to float in the sky.

Seeing that the meat cocoon looked motionless again, they simply hid in the hole, clinging to the meat cocoon, and taking advantage of the warmth emitted by it, they spread all kinds of hay collected around to keep warm.

Time goes on and January arrives.

The original snow has become the norm.

As the snowflakes accumulated deeper and deeper, almost pouring into the hole, the frog and the mushroom man gradually became unbearable.

They tried to move the cocoon, and found that all the buds connected to the outside were disconnected, and it could be pushed completely.

Without doing anything, one frog and one mushroom simply pushed the cocoon to the entrance of the cave, resisting the wind and snow to keep warm, and at the same time releasing coercion to deter the hungry beasts from invading in winter.

In this way, the two weak beasts cooperated with each other, and with this gift from heaven, they survived the most difficult period of winter.

And the life in the cocoon that had not moved for a long time finally resolved the crisis of external invasion and ushered in a brand new change of its own.
