Blue Star Survival Project: Animal Edition

Walking through the densely populated steel forest, Shengcun found himself under a terraced field.

The moonlight is very bright, casting layers of shadows on the terraced fields.

Sheng Cun walked through the shadows, his green wolf eyes flickering in the darkness, like erratic fireflies.

This is a vineyard.The harvest season of grapes has already passed, and the rows of pergolas stand silently in the night, swaggering like little hands of leaves that have not been blown off by the winter wind.

A winding path in the field leads to a row of low huts, one of which has light from its window.

It is conceivable that in the cellar of the cottage, the essence of grapes is lying in oak barrels, waiting for the day of gorgeous transformation in time.

I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but Shengcun felt a mellow smell in the air, obviously he didn't even see the shadow of the wine, he already felt dizzy.

The whole day of high-intensity exercise did consume too much energy, so Shengcun jumped into the big pit under the grape trellis nearby. It was a reservoir dug for the vines to absorb water. Now a thick layer of water has accumulated in it. Fallen leaves, just enough for him to lie comfortably in it.

Sheng Cun buried his face in the bend of his front legs, pillowed his fluffy tail under his body, and soon fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, he was awakened by the sound of slight footsteps.

Like some kind of four-legged beast jumping forward, the steps are light and flexible.

The sound was gradually approaching, Sheng Cun curled up his body, lying motionless at the bottom of the pit, only his pointed ears stood up vigilantly.

The little beast didn't notice that there were other animals around. It walked around the pit and groped for the hut in the dark familiarly.

The people who lived in the hut raised a few long-haired rabbits in the backyard. They were still chewing beetroot in their mouths. They suddenly seemed to sense something and raised their heads uneasily.

Sheng Cun poked his head out of the pit, his wolf eyes flickered.

The wolf's night vision was good enough to see in the dark, and he saw a weasel slinking down and trying to get under the fence and into the yard.

Faint voices could be heard in the room, and the small, round eyes of the weasel moved nimbly, with the appearance of a guilty conscience.

It came here to steal a rabbit two days ago. Although the food shortage in late autumn is not so short that it can't survive, the rabbit in the cage that was fed stupidly by humans is really delicious, and it can't help it. A tender temptation.

A few rabbits can't make any movement, so there is basically no need to worry about alarming the people inside.

With delicious food in sight, it quietly swallowed a mouthful of saliva and found the gap it found last time.

If it could understand what the people in the room were saying, it would regret this reckless adventure.

"Hey, didn't you find a long-haired rabbit missing yesterday? How dare you put them outside?"

someone in the room asked.

"No problem, I set a trap next to the rabbit cage, if that guy dares to come, just wait to be caught by me!"

A young boy with brown curly hair answered briskly as he stuffed a handful of popcorn into his mouth, his same brown eyes shining with determination.

"Then I wish you good luck. If you get something tomorrow, remember to clean it up early, and don't forget that we are going to deliver the goods."

"Received, received, tomorrow will be a busy day!"

The young man glanced out the window. It was quiet outside and the rabbits seemed safe.

The weasel catches the rabbit, it's only right and proper, Sheng Cun lazily looks away, and lays back in the den again, ready to go back to sleep.

……

and many more!

If the noise they make attracts the people inside, wouldn't he, a real gray wolf, have a bigger goal?

No, we must resolutely rule out the risk of innocent people being shot.

Sheng Cun stood up abruptly, jumped out of the pit, and lowered his voice to growl at the weasel that was about to move.

The weasel, who was about to dive in, felt a chill on its back, and turned around in a swipe, almost stepping on its own tail in a hurry.

Damn, why did a wolf grow out of that pit!

The slanted eyes are extremely fierce, and the bloody mouth opened seems to be able to swallow myself...

The weasel screamed in alarm, and quickly sprinted out, dragging its tail behind it, and disappeared into the grape trellis in a flash.

It's safe now.

Shengcun restrained his fluffy fluff, jumped back into the pit and continued to sleep.

He wakes up early, but humans are more industrious than him.

Trucks roared by, kicking up clouds of dust.

Barrels of wine are neatly stacked on trolleys, ready to be loaded into cars.

Sheng Cun rubbed his eyes, guessing from the sky that had just turned white, it should be less than 5 o'clock now.

"Good morning, we're going to run a lot today."

Sheng Cun's expressionless face collapsed the moment he heard the system's words, and he could feel the pain through the fluff on his face.

"Tell me, how far do you want to run?"

he asked feebly.

"Actually, it's twice as much as yesterday. Our destination is the Seberg Pass, which is the border between Slovenia and Austria."

"Can't we leave in two days?"

"I'm afraid not, because there will be a snowstorm in two days. Would you like to cross the most windy mountain pass at that time?"

"Forget it..." Sheng Cun muttered.

If you run nearly 100 kilometers, the soles of your feet will definitely blister.

Sheng Cun raised his paw and rubbed his chin distressedly.

"We are following the direction of this road, and then we will pass the train station, and when we arrive at the station, we will walk west..."

The system was guiding the way, and a pickup truck full of barrels staggered past.

"Ah!"

Sheng Cun accidentally inhaled a big mouthful of exhaust gas, and hurriedly rubbed his nose frantically.

While bowing his head, he suddenly had a thought, these wooden barrels should be filled with wine, where will they be sent?

The only town nearby is in the other direction, so it should be sent to the train station?

Maybe... a ride.

After a while, another pickup truck roared past, Shengcun pricked up his ears and nose, but found no human breath in the compartment.

So it checked that there was no one around, jumped up lightly, grabbed the roof of the car with its sharp front claws, and then sneaked into the car smoothly with a push of its hind legs.

The wooden barrel squeezed the spacious compartment to the brim. Sheng Cuan carefully adjusted his balance, stepped on the wooden barrel cover to the last position of the compartment, and struggled to find a gap where he could barely fit.

In the cab, the driver hummed happily, completely oblivious to the uninvited passenger hiding behind him.

"Hey, are you a little foul?"

The system sounds a bit dumbfounded.

"If you deviate from the direction, don't forget to remind me."

Sheng Cun shook his head, and watched the forest outside quickly receding through the gap in the carriage.

He guessed right, the truck was indeed bound for the train station.

When he was approaching the stop, Shengcun climbed out of the car, fell into the soft grass and rolled several times before he was able to escape the impact of jumping off the car halfway.

"Then, where are you going?"

Shaking his body covered in grass clippings, he ran in the direction pointed by the system.

He reached the pass in the afternoon, and from here he could see the exposed railroad tracks.

The green leather train roared past, and the carriage collided with the rails, making a muffled "bang-dang" sound.The railroad tracks lay continuously on the ground, leading to a distance he could not see.

I don't know who will drink that barrel of wine.

Sheng Cun withdrew his gaze, turned around slowly, and walked into the aisle formed by two mountain peaks.
