Chapter 49: Funeral
Gray seemed to notice Su Ran’s fear.
After returning to the nest, it held Su Ran, kissing and nuzzling her to comfort her for a good while, while continuously mumbling in its mouth: “Ran Ran, woo~~ ao ao wu~~”
Only until Su Ran calmed her mood and couldn’t help but push it away did it stop.
However, its mood was not affected by Su Ran’s pushing.
Beastmen very much like to express emotions through intimate skin contact. Every time with Su Ran’s kissing and cuddling, it could make the werewolf’s mood good for a long time.
Like at this time, Su Ran and it lay on a straw bed. It turned sideways facing Su Ran, buckling her whole body into its embrace. The tail behind occasionally swept, scraping the straw and making rustling sounds.
And in front, the werewolf who had already entered dreamland still subconsciously rubbed Su Ran’s top of head with its chin from time to time.
The next day morning, Su Ran was woken up by Gray.
The weather was really getting warmer and warmer. A few days ago, when waking up in the morning, it still felt somewhat piercingly cold, but now it was completely not felt.
After getting up, she discovered that Gray had already put the multi-tool axe, her mug and thermos, all into a basket.
At this moment, seeing her get up and walk over, it walked to her front, rubbed her face, pointed to the basket behind it, and said to her in a cheerful voice: “Ran Ran, go seaside, basket, hold green fruit red fruit.”
Su Ran raised her eyebrows, looking at it a bit surprised.
She hadn’t told it about going to the seaside today, so was this considered telepathy between them?
But soon she discovered she was overthinking it.
The werewolf wasn’t wanting to go to the seaside, but had something to do, and was going to the seaside along the way.
However, at this moment Su Ran still didn’t know what it was going to do.
She first pulled the werewolf to the riverside to get the stone pot.
On the way to the riverside, they also picked a few large sweet leaf vein tree leaves.
After arriving at the place, Su Ran first freshened up at the riverside, then found a concealed sandy area to solve the belly smooth problem, before picking up the basket.
However, she looked at the stone pot in front of her with some distress.
The grass clump thrown into the stone pot yesterday had no particular changes, because in the water, it hadn’t even wilted.
This showed that there was no more black-flowered Malan grass juice inside the stone pot, and it could be used normally.
But how was she going to take it with her?
Clearly when just made, this stone didn’t look this big, but now really needing to lift it up, it felt surprisingly big.
While she was frowning at the stone pot in front of her, Gray beside her also looked at the round stone pot she was staring at and asked: “Ran Ran, stone pot, go seaside?”
“Mm.”
Su Ran nodded, because still thinking about how to take the pot, her response was a bit absent-minded.
As a result, the next second, she saw Gray walk to the side of the stone pot, grab the pot rim with both hands, exert force, and easily lift the stone pot upside down onto its shoulder.
Then it walked to Su Ran’s side, reached out to take the basket from her hand, and said to her: “Ran Ran, walk.”
“?”
Walk?
Su Ran doubtfully turned her head sideways.
Weren’t they going to the seaside? Could it be walking there?
However, she didn’t ask. After these few days’ experiences, she already extremely trusted the decisions the werewolf made when deciding to do something.
Because every time it made a decision, it indeed brought her the things she wanted.
Su Ran walked beside Gray, lowered her head and saw the basket holding things in its hand, reached out wanting to take it over.
“Gray, give me the basket.”
“Wu?”
The werewolf turned its head sideways to look at her.
Its other side’s arm was supporting the stone pot on its shoulder.
At this time, the arm because lifted up, the bulging biceps and forearm muscles appeared full of strength. The tall body walking beside Su Ran, the strong male hormones almost enveloped Su Ran entirely.
But the doubtful expression on its handsome face made its aura, which was reliable and dependable the previous second, suddenly transform into cute and even a bit childish feeling.
The werewolf looked at Su Ran, then lowered its head to look at the basket grabbed by one hand each of itself and Su Ran, the tail behind swept once.
Not knowing if intentional, the tail tip even heavily hit Su Ran’s calf once.
“I’ll take the basket.”
Su Ran tugged the basket toward her direction, and then the werewolf let go of its hand following her action.
After seeing Su Ran carrying the basket and continuing forward, it seemed to suddenly understand Su Ran’s meaning.
It made two cheerful sounds from its throat: “Ao wu ao wu~”
Then grinning, it strode to catch up with Su Ran’s pace.
After walking a while, Su Ran discovered that the direction Gray was taking her was actually the path back to the bird’s nest tree side.
Thus she became even more curious about the reason Gray was taking this route at this moment.
And when almost arriving at the bird’s nest side, from far away, Su Ran saw that on the open space under the tree, the beastmen who should have already gone out hunting at this time every day were almost all standing there.
Their standing positions were not tight, two or three together, but vaguely forming a circle.
And at this time, all the beastmen seemed to be looking toward the middle at something.
After Su Ran and Gray walked near, Xiao Ju was the first to discover their figures.
Seeing Su Ran’s figure, she bounced over, intimately rubbed cheeks with Su Ran, ignoring the dissatisfied growling sound at the werewolf.
And at this time, Su Ran also saw clearly what the beastmen were surrounding, surprisingly a tree trunk that had been hollowed out halfway vertically.
At this time the tree trunk was placed horizontally on the ground. Su Ran was pulled by Gray to walk a few more steps forward, before discovering that the middle of this tree trunk had also been hollowed out.
And at this time, inside surprisingly lay a leopard-type male beastman whose hair and fur on the ears all appeared already white.
Funeral!
This word suddenly jumped into Su Ran’s mind!
She looked at the beastman lying in the tree trunk, eyes closed and motionless. Even after looking until her eyes were sore, she didn’t see any sign of breathing.
Subsequently, the beastmen’s actions indeed confirmed her guess.
Only saw a fox-type female beastman the same as the leopard-type beastman lying in the tree trunk, whose body fur had all become white and dry, only faintly able to see a bit of red, slowly walk out from the crowd to the position by the head of the male beastman in the tree trunk, slowly bend down, and gently rub on the face of the beastman with closed eyes.
While rubbing, making faint “ying ying” sounds.
Su Ran guessed that it should be the companion of this male beastman lying inside.
And its current action should be doing the final farewell with the already deceased companion.
After a while, this elderly fox-type female slowly straightened up. It lifted its left hand, at this time Su Ran only then discovered that in its hand it was still holding a bunch of small purple flowers.
Only saw it slowly place the small bunch of flowers in its hand preciously into the tree trunk.
Seeing this, Su Ran’s eyes suddenly felt a bit sour.
No matter for what group, death is forever a sad matter.
She suddenly began to think, for the family in her original world, whether she had also been declared dead…
Starting to slowly change the werewolf’s reference to Gray from this chapter, but when writing it always feels a bit awkward, everyone can give some opinions ha, if reading feels uncomfortable I’ll change back to the original way.
