The Mama Panda vigorously shook the large tree.
It was an ancient pine tree.
So thick that two people couldn't embrace its trunk.
However, perhaps due to worm infestation, the tree's heart had decayed, creating a huge hollow.
At this moment, the little gray squirrel was clinging to the hollow at the decaying part, holding it with both paws.
Inside the hollow seemed to be its nest.
And the Mama Panda was relentless.
Seeing this, Tom Lin stood up and approached.
Suddenly, the tree emitted a cracking sound.
The wood at the entrance of the hollow, necrotic and rotten, suddenly split with a crack under the Mama Panda's constant shaking!
This split wasn't a big deal.
But the acorn nuts cherished by the little squirrel inside the hollow could no longer be concealed, spilling out from the entrance.
"Patter patter!"
Acorn nuts from the tree above rained down like a sudden storm!
The audience was mesmerized.
"Wow, so many nuts!"
"Are they all hidden by this little squirrel?"
"The little squirrel must be devastated now, all its hidden food is gone!"
"Back to square one, the little squirrel might be desperate enough to jump off a building now."
"Little squirrel: No love left, let's just end it!"
"Although I feel sorry for the little squirrel, somehow I just want to laugh! Hahaha!"
...
After the rain of acorn nuts.
Tom Lin was also mesmerized.
Good grief, how much food did this little squirrel hide?
It could fill an entire cart!
However, after being shaken by the Mama Panda, these acorn nuts fell, and the little squirrel was probably bankrupt now.
Indeed.
Seeing its nuts falling, the little squirrel on the tree anxiously tried to guard them.
It used its small body to block the broken entrance.
But it was useless.
Soon, the flood of nuts overwhelmed its slender body, and they all fell from its side.
Crashing directly into the Mama Panda's head.
The Mama Panda was initially stunned by the impact and just about to get angry,
But soon discovered that these fallen nuts were edible!
So instead of shaking the tree anymore, she crouched in front of the tree, happily munching on the nuts with her paws.
The little squirrel on the tree sat on a branch, watching its food being stolen with a desperate look on its face...
Since the Mama Panda was below, it didn't even dare to go down and retrieve its food.
All it could do was helplessly paw at the air.
Fully illustrating what helplessness and weakness mean.
"Hahaha!"
"Oh no, the little squirrel's pitiful appearance is killing me!"
"Food accumulated for half a lifetime, gone in an instant by the Mama Panda, so sad!"
"Little squirrel: Me, a squirrel, have been walking on thin ice throughout my life, and I fear I won't reach the other shore."
"Little squirrel: I hate freeganism!"
...
The audience laughed at the little squirrel's food being stolen.
Tom Lin couldn't help it and didn't say anything to the Mama Panda.
He just tapped the Mama Panda's head and continued moving forward.
The Mama Panda soon ate half of the nuts on the ground and ignored the ones that fell into the corners.
Seeing that Tom Lin had already moved forward.
It quickly scooped up a nut with its paw, stuffed it into its mouth, and hurried to follow Tom Lin.
After the Mama Panda and Tom Lin left.
The little squirrel on the tree cautiously emerged from the branches, quickly climbed down the tree, and sadly went to salvage its food.
...
"Creak, creak..."
The forest was lush, with many unknown birds nesting in the trees.
After passing the Parashorea Protection Zone, Tom Lin continued his forest patrol.
The scenery on the mountain was beautiful.
Occasionally, some small animals could be seen passing by.
However, they were all very timid.
Especially when they saw a chubby panda accompanying Tom Lin, they dared not approach.
They just glanced from afar and ran away.
Two hours later.
Tom Lin had inspected all the areas in the mountain that needed to be patrolled today.
Finding no abnormalities, he prepared to return.
At this moment.
The Mama Panda suddenly rushed towards the small hill ahead.
Seeing this, Tom Lin quickly followed.
"Mama Panda, don't run around, we're going back..."
Tom Lin caught up to the small hill and was just about to call the Mama Panda back.
But then he saw the scene behind the hill.
And suddenly froze.
There, in the low-lying area below the small hill, appeared a clear mountain stream.
The water was crystal clear, with pebbles on the banks and fish hiding in the waterweeds visible in the depths.
The water lapped against the shore stones, creating small white flowers and emitting a pleasant sound.
It was soothing to listen to.
"Wow, there's actually a stream here."
"Such a clean stream, now I understand how the idiom 'clear as crystal' came to be."
"This is the pure mountain water in the mountains."
"I feel like this water is probably better than mineral water."
"There are fish, there are fish in this stream!"
...
Seeing the stream, Tom Lin's eyes lit up.
This path was one he hadn't taken with Jason Wang last time.
He didn't expect there to be a stream here!
The water was so clear.
Tom Lin was delighted.
He took off his shoes, stepped into the stream barefoot, and let the water cover his feet.
On a hot summer day.
Stepping on the cool stream water, with smooth pebbles massaging the soles of his feet and the gentle current slowly brushing against his insteps, like the tender hands of a maiden.
It made Tom Lin feel completely relaxed.
"Splash!"
Tom Lin sat by the stream, swaying his feet in the water and enjoying himself.
Suddenly.
A depth charge exploded nearby.
The Mama Panda suddenly plunged into the stream, chasing the fish.
Unfortunately, the fish were very slippery.
The Mama Panda couldn't catch them.
She became even more anxious and her movements became more vigorous.
Instantly, the entire stream was stirred up into a splash.
Tom Lin was also splashed with quite a bit of stream water.
"Mama Panda, stop it."
Helpless, Tom Lin had to pick up the Mama Panda from the stream.
The way she was catching fish not only wasn't working but was also scaring the fish away.
"Yingying..."
(Wants to eat fish!)
The Mama Panda stared at the fish swimming in the stream, her little eyes full of longing and sadness.
Tom Lin was speechless looking at this foodie.
All she did on this trip was eat.
And all she did at home was sleep.
No wonder she had become a national treasure.
However...
Tom Lin glanced at the fish in the stream and felt tempted.
To be honest, after patrolling the mountain for so long, his stomach was hungry.
He had only eaten a bowl of noodles in the morning, and after a few hours, his stomach was already protesting.
"Alright, wait, I'll catch the fish!"
After making a decision, Tom Lin took out a hook and fishing line packed in a bag from his backpack.
Considering that there might be rivers in the deep mountain reserve, he had bought them before coming up the mountain, and now they were actually useful.
