Xiaomo was stunned.

Even though he was injured, he could crawl effortlessly. It was so easy for the orcs in the animal world to get food.

"Xiaomo, go on." Artis was shouting at her from the tree.

"Oh," Xiaomo nodded in agreement.

She opened her hands, and a soft and tender fruit fell steadily into her hands.

After a while, Attis climbed down from the tree with a lot of fruits in one hand.

"Let me help you peel the skin," Attis took the fruit and peeled off the skin in a few strokes, revealing the juicy fruit.

Xiaomo took a bite and found it sweet and delicious. The sweet juice made her forget her hunger instantly, leaving only a few wisps of fragrance that gradually seeped into her heart.

"It's delicious," Xiaomo was a foodie after all. She smiled and said to Artis, "Thank you, Artis."

The fruits in primitive society are just more delicious than those in modern society.

"Eat some fruit first," Atis said, "at the end of this forest, there is a beautiful lake. The fish in the lake are delicious."

"Ah? Really?" Xiaomo really likes eating fish. She enjoys eating pickled fish, braised fish, and even stewed fish.

"Yes," Artis nodded, "Here, there are all kinds of delicious food."

"Then, let's set off quickly." Xiaomo was a little impatient.

Attis turned into a lion and continued to walk through the forest carrying Xiaomo on his back.

The trees in the forest were close together, and they did not move very fast.

"Artis," Xiaomo asked, looking at the numerous tree trunks, "I want to ask you a question, how did you fall into this big forest?"

Artis looked back at Su Xiaomo and said, "We lions all live on the grassland, but we have a duel competition with the tigers every year. I came to the tigers' vicinity to see the competition site in my first year, but was attacked by the snakes who were lying in wait. I fell off the steep cliff into this forest. Fortunately, I met you, otherwise I would not be able to go back."

"Oh," Xiaomo understood now. Artis was bitten by a big snake. No wonder the teeth marks on the wound were so deep.

"What about you, Xiaomo?" Artis asked. "Why are you here? It's very dangerous here. You are so beautiful and look so weak, but you saved me. You don't look like an orc from our world of beasts, but more like a god from heaven."

"Oh, don't mention it." Xiaomo thought of her sad story, "I just got to work and I accidentally fell off the road and traveled here."

"Go to work?" Artis didn't seem to understand. "What is going to work? Highway? What is that?"

Listening to Atis's puzzled tone, Xiaomo felt that the orcs in primitive society were naive and knew nothing.

"Working means I work for others and they pay me money as compensation. I can use the money to buy good food, fun things, houses, clothes, etc.," Xiaomo explained to Artis seriously. "As for roads, it's cement, sand, stones, water, etc., mixed together to turn the muddy road into a very solid and smooth road. Cars and trucks can pass through it without any problems."

"What is money?" Artis was even more confused. "What are cement, cars, and trucks?"

what! ——

Xiaomo said a lot and thought she explained it very clearly, but Artis couldn't understand her anymore.

Okay, let me explain it slowly.

Anyway, it looks like she won't be able to get out of this beastly world for a while.

But Artis still looked back at her with a puzzled look.

"Is the road solid?" Artis asked, "Then why did you fall off? Do all the species in your world fall off the road?"

Xiaomo could only continue to explain it to him in a simple and easy-to-understand way.

"Our road is very solid, but if there is a heavy rainstorm and the road is built next to a mountain, it will be washed away by the mud," Xiaomo said as she looked at the surrounding environment. "I don't know if other people have fallen down before, but I must be the unlucky one. I fell here on my first day at work."

"Don't you like it here, Xiaomo?" Artis' voice was a little sad. "This is a beautiful world. And if it weren't for your kindness, I might never be able to return to my tribe."

"Haha," Xiaomo laughed and said, "The only lucky thing is that I met a friend named Attis, who happened to rescue me."

Xiaomo didn't want to tell Artis that her original intention was to use him as a delicious meal.

The two of them walked and talked. When they were hungry, they had fruits picked by Attis to satisfy their hunger and thirst.

Although Attis was injured, he was in very good physical condition, and in the evening they finally reached the end of the forest.

Looking around, an endless blue lake appeared before them.

The lake was shrouded in clouds and mist, like a fairyland. By the lake there were all kinds of flowers and green plants, the flowers were gorgeous and bright, Xiaomo was dazzled. Now she began to understand why Artis said that this was a beautiful world.

"It's so beautiful," Xiaomo said, bathing in the breeze coming from the lake, accompanied by the scent of flowers, intoxicating, "It's like a fairyland."

"It's getting dark," Attis said, "Let's rest here tonight and continue our journey tomorrow morning."

"Okay," Xiaomo looked at the beautiful scenery and said reluctantly, "Actually, it would be nice to stay here for a few more days."

"We haven't completely left the territory of the snake tribe yet," Artis said, "but the view here is wide, and it's not easy for the snake tribe to hide, which is more advantageous for us. After we pass this lake and reach the lion tribe, the scenery there is a hundred times more beautiful than here."

"Oh, okay, okay, I understand," Xiaomo nodded quickly. She felt nervous when she heard the word snake. She was most afraid of snakes. She hoped they wouldn't catch up with her. "Then let's leave early tomorrow morning."

"Well," Artis put Xiaomo down gently, changed back into human form, and said, "You rest here now, I'll go catch some fish."

"The fish here," Xiaomo was excited when she heard about catching fish, "Are they easy to catch? Can I go with you?"

"I think it's easier," Artis said embarrassment, "but I don't know if you can catch it."

Humph, Xiaomo is not convinced. There are times when a lion looks down on others.

"Don't worry, it's no problem," Xiaomo patted his chest and said, "The water here is so clear and the shore is so shallow, catching fish is a piece of cake for me."

"Okay," Artis obviously believed Xiaomo's words, "Let's go together."

Xiaomo took out a medical towel from the first aid kit. The fabric seemed to be quite sturdy, so she used it to hold the fish.

Artis was in front and Xiaomo followed behind.

The wound on his bare back had not yet healed, and his abdomen was still wrapped in a blue sheet, and although it could not be seen, the wound was deeper and longer.

Going into the water to catch fish now would be too bad for Attis's wound.
