Chapter 12: Darkness Under the Light

After climbing countless hills, crossing countless canyons, and wading through small streams, Dekang and his team finally reached the vicinity of the great river at the moment of sunrise. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

"Great Chief. Climb over two more heights and you will see the big river. "The leading party here stopped in a canyon to report to Shirao.

"What's going on up ahead, are there any humans?" Baoyue interjected.

The leader nodded: "When you reach the top of the mountain, you can see the houses scattered everywhere, especially near the North Sea and the mouth of the big river, where you can't go in broad daylight. ”

"There are human settlements!" Baoyue was stunned when she heard this, it was not easy to get in and out, and Dekang on the side looked serious when he heard it.

Shirao smiled slightly: "Little prince." Princess Baoyue. Don't worry, there is a big road by the sea in this place, and there are no humans wandering on the road in the dark, and there are no tracking dogs guarding here, they are in the settlement behind the road, and they don't come here in the night. ”

"Is there such a good thing?" Baoyue's eyes widened.

"Otherwise, we won't be able to get in, but occasionally a human car whizzes by, let's hide in a remote place and get closer, and we will definitely not be discovered." Shirao has to go to the mouth of the river to find inspiration every few winters and summers, and he is naturally full of confidence.

Then they followed the leader of the big estuary to the hidden cave to rest, although they ran all night, and the road only stopped a few times, but everyone did not feel sleepy, and finally reached the end of the trip, everyone was more excited.

In the midst of the casual conversation, Shirao talked about a strange tree on a beach on the western side of the North Sea, whose intertwined roots protruded out of the sand, one by one, naked under the sun, and the roots of the tree were as tall as one or two figures, and above was the real trunk.

Wolves can climb up and down from tree roots to tree roots, shuttling and frolicking.

"It's fun, yo poop chance to check it out. Well... Those are dead trees. Baoyue's eyes lit up.

Shiraowei shook his head: "It's all pine trees that don't change color in winter and summer, and they grow well." ”

"That's weird, how did they survive?"

Dekang smiled slightly when he heard this: "Each has its own way of living. Gurunai and Qingsong are not living well in the Badain Jaran Desert. ”

"It's different. If we wolf clan can't stay, we can change places, but this tree that grows on the ground, why can't they run? Baoyue disagreed with Dekang.

Shirao listened to the probing breath.

He said that don't look at our wolf clan galloping in the forest, seemingly free, but who knows the pain in it. In the face of shrinking territory, where can we hide, some think day and night, we are not as good as these trees, at least humans rarely harass them, at least they have a territory of their own.

"I don't want to become a big tree, there is no delicious food... Baoyue pouted.

Dekang and Shirao couldn't help but laugh out loud when they heard this.

After resting for a while, everyone went to the stream one after another to drink some sweet water, and fatigue gradually came to their heads, Dekang and Baoyue each found a corner to sleep, and the task of vigilance was taken over by the leading party.

Somehow, this time Dekang slept very shallowly, so to speak, dreaming for a while and waking up for a while.

Like a memory, Dekang's intermittent light dream flashed in his mind the bits and pieces of his day and night with Ah Da and Grandma, and some memories had been forgotten by him unconsciously, and this time he somehow remembered it.

He also recalled the bits and pieces of Yu Baoyue's time together since the beginning of the escape road, especially the dark space and the cave of remains, which were like a movie, and the scene was not missed from beginning to end.

Dekang dreamed that the Divine Sword Wolf King came down from the gate, patted him on the shoulder and said to him kindly, "Little cub." The mission of revitalizing the Earth Wolf Clan has been entrusted to you, leading the Earth Wolf Clan to go on firmly and tenaciously. ”

Dekang nodded, choked up and wanted to say something, but somehow he couldn't say a word, and as soon as he was in a hurry, he was awakened.

When I opened my eyes, I was still sleeping in the cave*** Dekang smiled bitterly and shook his head.

After Baoyue woke up, Dekang called her outside to tell her about his strange dreams, and Baoyue's eyes widened again: "Oops... Why didn't Baoyue have such a good dream, I really want to see the Divine Sword Wolf King again. ”

"Second brother. When we understand what is going on here, let's go back to the dark space to investigate, shall we? ”

"Hmm."

The sun was just setting in the west, and the wolf clan woke up one after another, and everyone already knew the situation of the humans nearby, because they didn't know what the little prince Dekang and the big leader of the white tail wanted to do, so everyone was a little uneasy.

Dekang saw that everyone was a little emotional, so he told everyone that he would only stay here for a day or two and night, and go back after checking the traces of the ancestors of the wolf clan.

Although the brave eyes don't know what Dekang wants to do, since the little prince has spoken, let's wait patiently.

When the night came, Shirao sent all the brave eyes to the surrounding high ground to guard, and himself, Dekang, and Baoyue were still napping in place.

I don't know what Shirao remembered, he suddenly stared at Dekang and said loudly, "Little Prince Dekang." It's okay to take you to see it below, but you must not swim to the boulder. ”

Dekang looked thoughtfully at Shirao, but did not answer.

Shiraowei was a little anxious, and he rushed to Dekang with an arrow and stared at him.

"Why don't you go up to the boulder... Bao Yueman said indifferently.

"The Earth Wolf Clan has been divided for so many winters and summers, and it is not easy for a unified situation to emerge. I'm afraid... I'm afraid... Shirao was reluctant to say unlucky words.

Bao Yue held her little head high and said proudly: "You are timid." Baoyue and the second brother even broke into such a gloomy and terrifying place in the dark space, and successfully swam through the underground dark river, what is there to be afraid of in this big boulder at the mouth of the river, it can still swallow us. ”

"But... But... ”

Dekang got up and patted Shirao's shoulder: "Big leader." Don't worry, I know what to expect. ”

Seeing Dekang's statement, Bai Wei couldn't say anything more, but the worry on his face was obvious, but Dekang didn't explain anymore, and Baoyue left the matter behind as soon as he turned around.

As night falls, the lights come on.

Tokukang, Baoyue, and Shirao stood quietly on the high ground and watched the human settlement near the mouth of the great river, where the lights were brilliant, the cars were coming and going, and all kinds of noisy sounds came one after another.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Dekang's eyes were so cold that they could kill humans.

This is the holy land of the wolf clan, but now this place is occupied by humans, as the wolf king of the earth, he can only sneak close like a thief, sneak peep, which makes him feel humiliated, and then has infinite hatred.

"Second brother. What's wrong with you? "Baoyue's feeling is very sensitive, especially when Dekang's mood changes greatly, even if Baoyue stands in front of Dekang, she can feel it without looking at the second brother.

"Hmm... Baoyue's words brought Dekang back to his senses.

"We have lost so much that the Earth Wolves have almost lost the courage to resist, and we hope that the Moon God will protect us again." Dekang muttered.

The three of them waited until the dead of night, when only occasional cars drove on the seaside road before they set off down the mountain, and cautiously approached the edge of the human settlement under the leadership of Shirao.

Shirao knows the road well, knowing which roads to cross to avoid the warning of nearby tracking dogs, and which roads are densely shaded to block out the pesky lights on the side of the road.

Sometimes they crossed the road at a fast speed, sometimes they huddled under the base of the wall and under the big trees to check the movement ahead, and they watched and listened in all directions, and approached the north sea little by little.

The closer to the estuary, the denser the human houses became, but fortunately, most of the houses on this side were uninhabited by tears in the dark night, and there were no nasty stalking dogs harassing or calling the police.

This secluded alley has always been the best place for Shirao to check the boulders in and out of the water, and to hide, and he has never been in trouble here.

Shirao let out a long breath and turned around and whispered, "Little Prince." A hundred steps further from here you will reach the seaside road, and at the intersection you can see the boulders of the estuary. ”

"Be vigilant ... Walk... ”

The three intruders tiptoed and ran towards the Corniche.

There are benches on the beach, some under the lamps, some in the shade, and a drunken man sleeping on the benches.

Dekang and the others squatted at the mouth of the alley for a while, searched back and forth on both sides of the road, and after making sure that there were no tracking dogs nearby, they slipped through the road to a bench by the sea.

According to Shirao, he uses the human bench as a cover every time, and the cars whistling by on the road can't be spotted at all, even if there are occasional humans walking by, and the huddled body hides in the shadow of the bench, the humans can't find it.

Dekang hid in the shadows and stretched out his head to take a look, it was good, he could clearly see the movement in the distance of the road, there were benches to obstruct it, and humans really couldn't find themselves.

How did he know that when his head looked to the other side, Dekang was dumbfounded.

He saw a dark figure lying on a bench next door, and Decon blinked at it, and then he could see the character's two feetβ€”it was a human.

Dekang and the others went back and forth at the entrance of the alley to check the movement, patronizing the cars and the tracking dogs, but did not pay close attention to the movement on the benches, and they themselves were deceived by the shadows of the benches.

Suddenly, Dekang's neck fur stood up, and he squatted and his tail was straight, full of strength.

Sensing Dekang's strangeness, Baoyue and Shirao turned their heads together and stared in the direction of Dekang's staring.

Maybe it was feeling thirsty or something, or maybe it was Dekang's vicious stare that made the human feel it, only to see the character turn over half of his body, and he didn't know what to do in his mouth, and the human slowly sat up with one hand on the bench.

In the open area of the human settlement, facing a human who suddenly appeared, Dekang was not the slightest bit mentally prepared, and his reaction was a beat slower.

The human got up and looked casually ahead, and suddenly, he saw three black shadows on the bench in front of him, and he thought it was a tracking dog that had slipped out, so he waved his arms sharply and shouted loudly to drive away the tracking dog.

In his experience, this trick is very clever against the tracking dogs in the town, these little mischievous little mischievous people understand human language, and they also know what it means to wave their arms vigorously.

He thought that the three tracking dogs would soon run away, but as soon as he shouted, he saw a black figure get up and pounce on him like lightning.

'The wolf is coming! 'This character is a spirit.

He jumped up and yelled and ran towards the road, and Hotsuki and Shirao instinctively chased after Dekang.

Dekang used all his strength to stare at the fleeing humans, and at the same time felt a trace of pleasure in his heart, it turned out that humans would be afraid, and it was quite interesting to chase humans.

The bench was only about ten steps away from the main road, but this human wanted to avoid the wolf clan chasing behind him, so he did not run towards the road in a daze, but stuck diagonally.

The human was dazed and jumped, how could it be compared to Dekang who moved his hands and feet, and when he escaped twenty paces, Dekang had already chased after him, and the character glanced back in horror, and saw a tall figure rushing towards him, the human tearing open his throat and letting out a terrible scream.

Dekang pounced on him from behind, and his two front paws instantly stabbed into the human's back and neck, and he was pulled to the side, and the human and Dekang rolled to the ground almost at the same time.

Baoyue and Shirao, who had caught up from behind, took the opportunity to pounce and bite the humans indiscriminately, and the character rolled and tried to dodge, because he was so frightened that he had forgotten to scream at the moment.

Dekang got up and saw that the two of them would not be able to solve the battle for a while, turned around and pulled out the front paw of the divine sword, tightly clasped the hilt of the sword, and shouted: "Get out of the way, I will split him." ”

Hearing this, Shirao and Baoyue jumped to the two sides, jumping up and turning their heads to check Dekang's movements.

I saw Dekang stride high and hold the divine knife high and swished a cold light, the divine knife slashed through the neck of the human being, the character stared at the frightened eyes, and finally the instinctive miserable scream came to an abrupt end.

"Let's go." Dekang inserted the divine knife back and coldly ordered.

"The little prince. Humans don't notice us. ”

As soon as he saw Dekang slash humans to death, Bai Wei immediately glanced at both ends of the road, and he was pleasantly surprised to find that the moon god blessed, there were no cars and humans at the moment, and the road was still quiet.

Dekang and the others retreated into the shadow of the bench again, and found that the human screams only provoked a few random responses from a few tracking dogs in the distance, and nothing else.

"White Tail. Now I know that the moon god has been protecting my second brother and me. Baoyue looked stunned.

Shirao-tail retreated into the shadows and stared at Dekang with an incredulous look, at the moment, he still couldn't believe that Dekang could easily kill a human in a human settlement without attracting their attention.

'It's incredible... ’

They waited there for a while, and when they saw that they really didn't attract the attention of humans, they refocused on the estuary.

The boulder in the water was hundreds of steps away from the shore, and Shirao first stared at the direction, but fortunately, Dekang had sharp eyesight and could still see it when he stared at it.

There was a little wind in the dark night, and the sea rushed to the mouth of the river with the waves crashing on the boulders, making a crisp crackling sound.

"How can you swim through this!" Baoyue couldn't help but change her face when she saw the turbulent sea.

Dekang looked at the sea on the left and right sides of the boulder for a moment, then looked along the shore and nodded.

"Second brother. What do you mean? ”

"It's hard to get close to the boulder here, but you can swim about 200 steps out there to get to it." Dekang pointed to the sea on the left and whispered.

"What a way... Baoyue looked at it and blurted out.

"The little prince. Are you really going to climb up? Bai Wei looked anxious, grabbed Dekang and asked urgently.

Dekang explained to Shirao that although he had the wolf clan's divine sword, the humans already had a gun, and face-to-face combat was not their opponent at all.

Since he and Baoyue fled from the Haxia River, even he didn't believe it all the way, since the moon god has been protecting, and the Beihai Dashi is the last pass related to the survival of the wolf clan, for the earth wolf clan, for the Dekang family's predecessors who are not afraid of life and death, they must go over to see if there is any mystery here.

"The Golden Wolf Khan King disappeared here, it's too dangerous...

"The dark space has broken through. With this princess here, she must be blessed with a great life. "This time, Baoyue is very confident.

"Fortune is great!" Dekang let out a low snort.

Seeing that the brother and sister were out of the way, Shirao's expression was agitated for a moment and he said loudly, "Little prince." I'll go with you. ”

Dekang shook his head.

"This is not a cave in the wolf's den, you may be in the way if you follow, just guard us here." Bao Yue's heart is straightforward and fast-talking.

"But..."

"That's it." Dekang has the final word.
