Now Mu You was completely relieved, picking away freely, finally he overturned the entire nest and gathered more than two hundred and twenty pieces. But only about a hundred of them were intact scales.
Having eaten and drunk his fill, and collected all the scales he could, Mu You wanted to leave. Unfortunately, the mother Kylin was right next to him. Although she didn't look directly at him, nursing animals are highly attentive to their offspring. If he tried to run, she would definitely notice and probably bring him back, guarding him closely.
So Mu You had to stay for now, pretending to interact and play with the little Kylins to kill time.
Until nightfall, when all the little Kylins fell asleep, the mother Kylin also closed her eyes, her breathing grew long, clearly she had fallen asleep.
Only then did Mu You start to act.
[Under the shroud of night, the entire Kirin Nest was silent, with only the sound of the little Kylins breathing.]
