Saving System: Calm Down, My Fleeing Host!-Chapter 170: Love From Papa Bear

As various branches piled into a small mountain, Cheng Xiaoxiao tidied up the site and clumsily struck the fire starter against some dry leaves, but initially, the sparks touched only a few leaves with no sign of catching fire.

She had no choice but to grab a lot of dry leaves and pile them up, digging a hole inside, blowing and blowing against it with her little bear’s short snout, finally igniting the sparks.

But before Cheng Xiaoxiao could celebrate for three seconds, the dry leaves burned too fiercely, the flames suddenly surged up, scorching a patch of fur on her forehead.

A morose Cheng Xiaoxiao didn’t know what to say.

Sorry! Little Bear, didn’t expect to occupy your body and even cause you disfigurement, really sorry.

System: "Host, can you not use that schadenfreude tone and say such sincere words? It’s too jarring!"

[What do you know? It’s not my fault, who let the little bear feel so starved not eating, I’m just trying to fill its belly.]

The system actually had no retort.

The host always finds reasons to cleanse herself forcefully, her skin is truly getting thicker and thicker.

The first time using the little bear’s body to do detailed work, clumsy and funny, Cheng Xiaoxiao expected the system to laugh at her, so she forcefully argued back, hmph! Just wait and see, her adaptability is very strong.

After shaving several thick branches, Cheng Xiaoxiao’s paws bore several bleeding cuts.

Damn it!

Is this work that a bear should do?

Unwilling to admit defeat, Cheng Xiaoxiao cut a few more thorn branches, arranging the sticks into a triangular support shape, binding them tightly and securing them.

Then, beside the fire pit, she set up a rack, a long stick passing through the deer and resting just above the flames to roast.

Finally done, determined to have a proper feast today.

While feeding the fire, Cheng Xiaoxiao flipped the deer with great effort, her little paws busy in the sunset’s afterglow, appearing peaceful and fulfilling.

Soon, the aroma of roasted deer wafted out, and as Cheng Xiaoxiao smelled this scent, she felt even hungrier, almost like she hadn’t eaten anything for three days and nights, wishing she could just dive in and take a bite.

She struggled to restrain her eager little paws, suppressing the bear’s instinctual desires, admonishing herself to stay calm, not let hunger possess her body.

When it was almost done roasting, Cheng Xiaoxiao sprinkled some salt, using a cleaned leaf vein to make a small brush, brushing back and forth to try to distribute the salt more evenly.

The aroma of Cheng Xiaoxiao’s roasted meat wafted far away, even the birds and beasts outside the mountain caught a whiff.

But they could only swallow in silence, not daring to come close, because this was the territory of the big black bear.

No animal with eyes would dare venture into the black bear’s territory, even if ignorant intruders came, they’d only end up as food for the big black bear, and while others won’t dare come, Bear Papa was not included.

At this moment, Bear Papa was digging holes.

It dragged the corpse of the man in black, one by one, to the foot of the mountain cave.

Now, at the foot of this mountain, there were many large and small pits dug, Bear Papa threw the bodies into the pits and buried them, planning to dig them up after winter to slowly eat.

While it was laboriously working, suddenly waves of fragrance drifted over, making it feel that the food in front of it wasn’t appealing anymore.

What kind of scent is this?

Pausing for a moment, it resumed its work, but the fragrance kept coming.

Unable to resist, it dropped the corpses on the ground and walked step by step towards the source of the aroma.

At this time, Little Bear was still unaware of Bear Papa’s imminent arrival, she was still delighted about her soon-to-be-roasted deer, ready to eat.

Cheng Xiaoxiao shaved a branch, peeling off the outer skin, leaving only the core.

Paws grasping the branch with effort, she pierced the deer repeatedly, until it pierced clean through, proof that the deer was thoroughly cooked, if the meat was undercooked.

Generally, it wouldn’t pierce through, so she was confident that the deer was done.

Hahaha!

Finally able to feast, the deer looked shiny and tender, roasted golden, very appetizing.

She eagerly took down the deer and placed it on a large leaf similar to a banana leaf.

Just about to dig in.

The system’s untimely voice echoed again in her mind, "Host, Host, your Bear Papa is back."

Cheng Xiaoxiao was extremely frustrated.

[Whose Bear Papa, I’m not really a little bear, who wants to call it Bear Papa.]

Despite the words, Cheng Xiaoxiao felt uneasy, she had nothing now, not suitable to confront a big black bear face-to-face, that would be asking for it.

Now she could only act humble and play the role of someone else’s child.

But this is too demanding.

Having to play a loving father and filial son with a big black bear.

Hehehe!

Neither an editor would dare write like this, nor a director dare shoot like this.

Ahhhh!

Just can’t communicate.

How to perform this.

Before Cheng Xiaoxiao could figure it out.

Bear Papa stepped confidently to the creekside, catching a glimpse of its silly child tinkering with something, the aroma emanating from its paws, enticing its drooling excessively.

Upon closer inspection, what is this charred and burnt thing?

Cheng Xiaoxiao could only, upon seeing the huge bear’s frame like a small mountain, instantly wimp out.

She had no choice but to feign an innocent look, tore half a deer and handed it to Bear Papa, indicating for Bear Papa to taste it, it’s tasty, very tasty, with an expression of seeking favor.

The system couldn’t bear to look.

Isn’t this quite fawning?

Bear Papa originally disdained eating this little bear’s tiny bit of meat, but the aroma was so tempting, it could only reluctantly accept it, sitting beside Little Bear and starting to gnaw on the roasted deer in its paws.

Seeing the big black bear so easily coaxed, Cheng Xiaoxiao wasn’t to be outdone either, picking up the other half of the deer and gnawing at it.

She had to eat quickly, in case the big black bear found her roasted deer tasty and tried to snatch hers.

She couldn’t win against the big black bear now.

Cheng Xiaoxiao quickly finished half of the deer, still unsatisfied.

The portion was too small, felt like it merely filled a gap in her teeth, not full at all.

Meanwhile, Bear Papa, tasting such delicious meat for the first time, found it extremely novel.

Kept praising Little Bear, though its way of praising was a bit peculiar, it slapped Little Bear’s head with its paw, causing the Little Bear eating seated to be caught off guard, getting slapped straight to the ground by its own Bear Papa.

What the heck, what’s going on?

Cheng Xiaoxiao looked blank, this, what kind of nerve is this big black bear on?

Now she is its child, how can it be so rude?

The system laughed heartily.

Currently, the big black bear was in high spirits, even continually slapped Little Bear’s head several times, making the Little Bear collapse on the ground unable to get up, each time it got up it was slapped down again, truly speechless.

Cheng Xiaoxiao almost wanted to jump up and curse, but alas, she lacked the capability and power.

Feeling extremely cheerful, the big black bear roared and instructed a few words to its child, then turned around and left briskly.
