Age of Behemoths

"In this weather, you will freeze to death if you go out!" Shen Yifei hugged Qin Jixun tightly, not letting him move at all, "I'm going to set up a small tent."

Just in case, the two of them still tossed a small tent with them, but they didn't bring sleeping bags, but fur is enough for now.

"The wind is so strong, how can you set it up? I won't go out for the time being, but I can't be so close to the little things." If Shen Yifei wants to take things out, of course he can't press Qin Jixun anymore, Qin Jixun is about to get up.According to the previous common sense, he may be infected when he is sick, only a small thorn, but who knows how the viruses in this world are classified now, "Pass me a piece of clothing, and I will wrap my mouth and nose first."

There is no special mask, so I can only get something to cover it temporarily.

Shen Yifei agreed, flipped out a T-shirt, and was about to hand it over when all his muscles froze suddenly.This is an early warning to Shen Yifei from other senses whose instinct precedes the body—danger!

At the same time, besides the little ones, Qin Jixun and the other animals reacted exactly the same as Shen Yifei.If it wasn't for the snow still fluttering with the wind, it would be as if someone pressed the pause button to stop time at this moment.

When they regained control of their bodies, a huge black shadow suddenly appeared in front of them through the wind and snow!Mammoth!

The strong wind and blizzard blocked its aura, concealed its huge size, and even covered up the trembling of the ground when it approached.

run!Regardless of reason or instinct, when facing this behemoth, he only gave Shen Yifei this answer.

But...can't run...

It was too late to take the sled and go together, but in this weather, running around without any equipment, the only thing to do was to freeze to death.What's more, he is still taking care of his family.No one can leave it behind, but how can such a big family run away?

Waiting for death has never been Shen Yifei's habit, so the only option is to fight to the death.

Not only did Shen Yifei think so, Qin Jixun had already come to Shen Yifei with a weapon in his hand, blowing all his hair, baring his fangs, and roaring at the mammoth Teddy, Sheila and the giant wolves also had the same idea.

The situation was imminent, and Shen Yifei knew that he could not wait for the mammoth to take the initiative to attack, and he was the smallest in size, and now Qin Jixun was sick again, and he was also the most flexible, so now he had to take the initiative to attack.Almost when he was about to rush out, another low, small voice sounded at the mammoth's feet.

——The sense of existence of the mammoth is so strong that Shen Yifei didn't notice it at first. There is such a small thing covered under the long hair of the mammoth.A little mammoth that walks on three legs without touching the ground.

Who is this little guy, I can guess with my toes.Now, the little thing is trying to raise its little nose, making a much more milky sound than its mother.

The mother mammoth shook her long nose, hooked up with the little mammoth's nose, pulled it twice, and then gently rubbed her long nose on the top of the little mammoth's head and back.

"..." This situation temporarily relieved Shen Yifei's tense nerves, and he looked at Qin Jixun, "Is it harmless?"

"It seems to be..." Qin Jixun also hesitated in his eyes, "If there is malice, it will not stand still after it appears, but rush over immediately."

"Well... Then we would have turned into meatloaf." Both of them nodded, and then Shen Yifei moved first. Sure enough, when he was walking, the mother mammoth just glanced at him, and still stood there with her little guy. Playing the game of pulling the nose.Shen Yifei let out a relaxed breath, hugged Teddy's neck, and rubbed its fur.

By the way...Teddy is indeed used to Shen Yifei's bad habit of "picking things up" at home, right?Shen Yifei hadn't rubbed the big fat twice before reacting, and the ferocious face immediately returned to Teddy's simple and honest, glanced at Shen Yifei, and slapped Shen Yifei's head with a bear paw—a normal person probably looked at the scene with disbelief. Frightened to death——it just kneaded and kneaded and kneaded Shen Yifei's head~~~ Finally kneaded Shen Yifei into a super explosive head, and then he went back to sleep contentedly.

After Teddy was finished, it was Sheila. Sheila just scratched her chin twice before lying back on her stomach, but judging from its posture, it was clear that this tigress was still wary of the mammoth mother and child.

Qin Jixun was also comforting the wolves at this time. With Teddy and Sheila as the role models, although the wolves were still a little nervous, they all lay back.

And the mammoth mother and child are standing there, but I really want to thank the mother mammoth. Its size stands there like a big mountain. Originally, there was a flat river nearby, and they had no shelter from the snowstorm. But with the mother mammoth , at least in a small range, the wind and snow are much smaller.

This is especially good for the sick Qin Jixun, as the small tent can be set up.

However, although the mammoth did not attack them, and even built a wall with good intentions, she was still wary of them.Although there is no verbal agreement, there is still a distance between the two sides. Those on their side will not cross the line, and the little ones will be confined to the side of the line when they come out to play.On the other side, if the baby mammoth wants to run over, it will be pulled back by the mother mammoth with its nose.

In the dark snowstorm, day and night could not be distinguished at all, just in case, Shen Yifei had to reduce the daily food supply.But Teddy, who loves food the most, didn't protest. They could eat as much as they wanted. Probably for them, it was a very happy thing for them to still have something to eat in this weather.

Compared with food, Shen Yifei was more worried about Qin Jixun.I don't know if the medicine is not suitable for the symptoms, or the old medicine has no effect on the current virus. Qin Jixun's illness has not improved these days, but it has become more and more serious, and he has a high fever.

What he can do for Qin Jixun is to get a little more hot water for the little ones every day when they melt snow water, and feed them to Qin Jixun. Before that, the two of them gnawed on the snow like adult animals. chew ice.

"Qin Jixun, drink some water." The water is plain boiled water with some salt added.Before Shen Yifei fed Qin Jixun to drink, he put the kettle directly in his arms and warmed it with his chest. Otherwise, even the salted water would turn into smoothie in less than 3 minutes. After all, the proportion of salt Not too much.

Shen Yifei watched him drink the water, then helped him lie down again, tucked in the quilt and the leather covering the quilt.His brows are tightly frowned, it's only been a few days, but it's obvious that Qin Jixun is weakening, his cheeks are sunken, even if he keeps trying to replenish water, his lips are dry and bloody Mouth, the corners of the mouth have blisters due to fever...

Shen Yifei felt uncomfortable and couldn't help but bowed his head and kissed Qin Jixun's cheek.But Qin Jixun immediately turned his face away after feeling it: "Be careful that I infect you."

In this way, if Shen Yifei took care of him back and forth, Qin Jixun would be worried that he would get sick or infect the little ones with bacteria.But it is true that only Shen Yifei can take care of him, and Shen Yifei himself is very careful, every time he leaves Qin Jixun's tent, he will stand in the cold wind for a quarter of an hour - at this temperature, any bacteria should freeze to death.Then return to the sleigh with a whole body of cold air.

Shen Yifei still didn't dodge, but lay down instead, protecting Qin Jixun's head in his arms with both hands: "Get well soon."

"..." Qin Jixun didn't refuse the hug, and lay there obediently, his forehead was not against Shen Yifei's chest, but the water bottle Shen Yifei put in his arms. After a while, he felt a little A muffled voice came from Shen Yifei's arms, "Shen Yifei, do it with me."

"Huh?" Shen Yifei was still stroking Qin Jixun's hair, "What are you doing?"

"..." Qin Jixun was silent for a longer time this time, until Shen Yifei thought he had fallen asleep and was thinking about how to leave without waking him, Qin Jixun said in a muffled voice One word, "...love..."

do... love...

"!!!!????"

Shen Yifei was indeed taken aback, and at the same time, his first reaction was indeed a bit of surprise.But soon this surprise was covered by a kind of anger. He took a deep breath and let go of the person: "If you are not sick now, I will beat you up."

Qin Jixun's face was very red. He didn't know whether it was because of a fever or something else. Shen Yifei's answer made him startled for a moment, his eyes were a little confused, and then he couldn't laugh or cry: "You misunderstood." His voice was hoarse She explained, "It's not because I think I can't make it through, so... I really..."

Shen Yifei was about to go out. He really thought that Qin Jixun thought he was going to die, so he wanted to leave him a last memory or something. So in the past, there was no leak at all, but now he simply Nodding his head -- it's no wonder Shen Yifei thought so, after all, the situation in front of him fits what he thought.

"You don't think so, you are so sick, how could I..." So even if Qin Jixun explained, Shen Yifei still expressed doubts.

"I'm...I...cough cough cough!" Qin Jixun also realized that he had said something wrong, and he was busy explaining, but he coughed anxiously and couldn't stand it anymore.

Shen Yifei quickly supported him to lie on his side, and patted his back lightly. After a while, Qin Jixun finally recovered his strength: "I know you are not, don't worry."

"I'm not a child... The timing of speaking just now was indeed wrong..." After Qin Jixun stopped coughing, he was still panting, "But just now, I really felt that the time has come, and we should be together... "

"Huh?" Shen Yifei was confused, what do you mean by "really wrong" and "really arrived"?

Then Qin Jixun reached out and held his hand: "We are really together."

Shen Yifei's heart suddenly started beating fast and heavy, as if it was about to jump out of his chest. He looked at the hands they held tightly, then at Qin Jixun, and lowered his head.

"Contagion..." Qin Jixun wanted to turn his head, but Shen Yifei's other hand firmly controlled his movement.

"Let me be self-willed for a while." Shen Yifei also knew that his actions were a little rough, and probably caused Qin Jixun a little pain, but he really didn't want to let go now.

"You're still less self-willed... eh...?"

Qin Jixun's chapped lips even made Shen Yifei's tongue and lips feel a slight tingling when kissed, but there was a sense of reality.Moreover, since Qin Jixun's words, they have really changed from being in love to being married, right?

Even without the little red book as a legal guarantee, and without the blessings of relatives and friends—although in China, even before the great changes, it was difficult for two men to have these two things—but the two of them It's really a companion.

Although he didn't do anything, just watched Qin Jixun fall asleep after being fed water as usual, but when Shen Yifei came out of the small tent, he still felt refreshed.Even if he stood outside and looked at the heavy snow that was still all over the sky, the hotness overflowing from his chest still made his whole body warm.

Stretching, Shen Yifei turned his head and was stunned for a moment. The little mammoth walked across the boundary without stopping?

Although the mammoth had been watching it, she didn't stop it.And the adult beasts here just glanced at the little guy, then at the big guy standing behind the little guy, and then lay down on the ground to sleep again.

I don't know if I misunderstood it, but Shen Yifei always felt that these guys were sighing: Such tender meat, it's a pity that it can't be bitten.It's too cold to maintain strength, let's sleep.

The little ones were all sleeping at this time, so after the little mammoth crossed the invisible boundary, it turned into a lonely one, and no one cared about it.The little guy was flustered immediately, first he turned his head and yelled at his mother, and then yelled at Shen Yifei.Shen Yifei thought that he had just come out of Qin Jixun's tent, and he really didn't know whether the virus on his body would affect other animals, especially the cubs with weak resistance, so he really didn't dare to go there.

At this time, a "warrior" stood up - crispy noodles!

The crispy noodle is actually very afraid of the cold. When it is in the sled, it always shrinks in the innermost part, rolling itself into a perfect circle that is hard to distinguish from the head and buttocks. Unless it is eating, it seldom runs out to play.However, today it ran out, usually with brisk steps, but now it smashed a hole in the snow with a single jump, burying half of its body in it.

But just like that, it came to the little mammoth with its big tail dragging on the ground, and it stood upright, its white eyebrows were furrowed, and its peasy eyes were shining with curiosity.
