Chapter 44: The Revelation of the Ancestors
After practicing for a long time, I felt that the skin and flesh all over my body were trembling, especially the muscles of the lower limbs, the protrusions, the protrusions began to twitch, and the roots of the legs of the lower limbs, I didn't know which tendon was involved, and it hurt faintly as soon as I lifted my feet. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Many times I walked a little faster, and when I was about to fall, I used my claws to clasp the bumps of the rock wall to barely stand firm. After two more laps, Dekang couldn't stand it anymore and had to go back to the hole.
Frowning and grinning into the cave, Baoyue looked Dekang up and down a few times, but found no trace of the fight, and couldn't help asking, "Second brother." What did you do? ”
Lying on the fur of the tracking dog does not want to move, the limbs including the waist, every time you move the whole body will feel pain, especially the root of the lower limbs, has been faintly painful, resulting in a feeling of spasm in the lower limbs at any time.
The meridians of the whole body seem to have been bounced by a hard object, pulling a part, and the whole body hurts, even the roots of the ears.
Think of those humans, all of whom can walk upright, and must have suffered a lot when they were cubs, and it's no wonder that other species don't learn from them.
"The second brother went to the west for a run and found a hidden place to practice upright movements." After lying on my stomach for a while, I finally felt a little smooth.
"Stand upright!" Baoyue's eyes came to Dekang's nose.
"The second brother learns what the wolf clan looks like in the picture and tries to practice."
"Why? Aren't all of us wolves running on all fours, Auntie Grandma, they're all there. Baoyue's small eyes became rounder and rounder.
"If you don't lean against the walls and rocks, how can the second brother swing the sword? If you encounter a group of jackals and a group of wolves that will not be kind in the open prairie and desert areas, how can you fight, and when the second brother can practice and swing the sword upright, then he is really not afraid of anyone. ”
Baoyue looked at Dekang suspiciously: "Second brother, as long as you aim the divine sword at the villains and stab them, will the bodies of those villains be harder than rocks?" ”
Dekang really wanted to give her a scalp: "The second brother can't stand steadily, how can he stab the opponent, and which character will obediently lie there and wait for the second brother to stab him to death?" The group of jackals besieging the opponent is all several of them attacking together, even if they stab one to death, it will not help, only by wielding the divine sword, can they be killed. ”
Baoyue stuck out her tongue, glanced at the second brother embarrassedly, and whispered to the ground, "Second brother." Baoyue also practiced upright movements. ”
"You're too small. Let's see it in the summer. Dekang replied angrily.
'In my heart, I don't want Baoyue to wield the divine sword to fight with the opponent, there is only one divine sword, she is fighting there, what should she do! It is our responsibility to protect the cubs and females. ’
Baoyue saw that Dekang wanted to be perfunctory, and ran forward and shook his forelimbs: "Second brother." Baoyue wants to practice. Baoyue wants to practice. ”
Shaking and pulling the muscles and bones of the whole body, it hurt so much that Dekang inhaled cold air, I really don't know if the little cub was unintentional or deliberately bad.
Dekang held back a sentence from his throat: "Okay... Okay... ”
Hearing the second brother agree, Baoyue jumped up and cheered, looking at that look, it seemed that she had infinite magic power in an instant.
After jumping back and forth from the bottom of the cave to the mouth of the cave, Baoyue began to practice upright movements on her own.
She stood in the middle of the passage, her forelimbs stiffened, her body stood up all of a sudden, probably because she was too strong, and she fell directly on her back to the ground without stabilizing it, she rolled her eyes a few times, grinned, and got up to continue practicing.
This time the strength was insufficient, and the body didn't straighten up and lay down, Baoyue didn't care about it, and continued to practice with her forelimbs.
There was a commotion for a while, either east or west, and I didn't see her standing firm and blinking twice.
Baoyue gasped and secretly glanced at Dekang, stomped her lower limbs and crossed her mouth and said, "Second brother." Teach Baoyue how to practice. ”
Dekang pretended to be weak and replied: "If the second brother knew how to practice, he wouldn't have made himself like this." ”
"But you've been out practicing for a long time." Baoyue ran over and shook his forelimbs again.
It seems that if you don't give her some sweetness this day and night, don't think about it, Dekang gritted his teeth and replied: "Okay." Just stand on your stomach against the wall. ”
When the little cub heard this, he immediately leaned on the cave wall, shook his little head and asked, "Second brother." Is that so, and how long do you have to lie down? ”
'Hey, hey, hey... It made my brother sore, and the sweetness was not so delicious. ’
Dekang squeezed out a smile: "Baoyue can stand for as long as she can." ”
Potsuki's enthusiasm for upright action is beyond imagination.
She stupidly lay there and persisted for a long time, until her lower limbs began to tremble, and then she shook her body and shook her teeth and said to Dekang: "Two... Elder brother... Yes. Finish. bar. ”
In the end, they both lay motionless on their fur and rested, Baoyue's mouth grinned from left to right, and then from right to left, and from time to time made a slight inhalation sound, and the little cub was accompanying Dekang to endure hardships this time.
"Second brother. Baoyue's whole body hurts, so she just leaned on the wall for a while, how could she be so uncomfortable. After lying on her stomach for a while, Baoyue spoke.
"Remember the picture on the top floor where the wolf clan practiced standing upright on the low wall, what is the wolf king doing?"
"Baoyue remembers. The wolf king stared at it from the small high platform. ”
Dekang pouted: "That's right." If it was fun and fun to stand upright, the wolf people were scrambling to go up and practice, and the wolf king was still staring at what he was doing. ”
Baoyue's demeanor drooped suddenly: "Yes... Second brother stink, why didn't you tell Baoyue earlier! ”
"Hey, hey, hey... It's not that you didn't see the second brother's whole body aching, and he was shaking hard, and the second brother was so painful that he couldn't speak. ”
Baoyue smiled, but this smile was more ugly than crying: "Baoyue thinks that the second brother is doing some tricks to tease people, look at you There are no traces of fighting on your body, how do you know that it will be so sore, this stinky wall." After saying that, she cocked her right lower limb and made it look like she wanted to kick the wall, but she knew that this moment pulled the meridians of her whole body, and she screamed in pain.
"Lie on your stomach." Dekang wanted to laugh, but he couldn't.
The practice of standing up can be carried out, but every time such a sore pain is unbearable, how do the wolf clans in the dark space persevere?
I remember that when I finally left there, some of the strong wolves were already standing upright in the grassland with large basins, and it was strange that the humans must have told them some miraculous way to relieve the pain.
Dekang and Baoyue lay there for most of the day and night, chatting without a word, and finally the topic returned to the upright action.
To Dekang's surprise, Baoyue's enthusiasm for practice did not diminish at all, saying that she would practice on her stomach in the cave every day and night in the future, which really surprised Dekang, I don't know if she was tempted to wield a divine sword or something else, in comparison, her own aggressiveness seems to need to be improved.
"But it's too uncomfortable to practice like this, is there any good way to avoid such pain." Baoyue asked with a frown.
Dekang glared at her: "If the second brother had a good way, he wouldn't have made himself like this." I can only practice for a while, and it will definitely not work until the end, or I don't have to practice once a day and night, and I don't have to persist for so long, maybe we won't be so uncomfortable. ”
"Those stinky and strange humans, they don't tell us how long we have to practice when they draw pictures." Baoyue took her anger out on the strange human.
'Where are the paintings of the people, it is not specially left for us to see, and it is a gift from the moon god to see those pictures. Dekang was secretly funny, but he couldn't open his mouth and raise the bar, so as not to burn himself.
"Second brother. Does what you're saying work? Baoyue saw that the second brother was there with his eyes closed and didn't reply, so she turned her head and said to him.
Dekang clicked his lips: "Second brother doesn't know, it's better than hurting half to death now, let's try it." ”
After dawn, Dekang walked out of the cave to inspect outside, Baoyue was still lazy and couldn't keep up, he was pulled up and walked a few laps in the passage before lying on the fur again.
Dekang trotted from the cave to the shore of the lake, where he trotted twice around the shore to the west before he felt his meridians return to normal and his limbs moved freely.
Standing at the last time I climbed the shore of the lake, I looked at the two ends of the Hasha River: 'Wait another day and night, it's almost time to go out hunting, both sides are empty and there is no life, in which direction?' It's probably not yet the final moment of choice, and after hesitating for a while, there is still no decision. ’
Baoyue obediently stayed in the cave, it was rare to be quiet, Dekang didn't want to waste precious days and nights, he thought about running around the shore of the lake towards the east of the lake, he wanted to see if there would be some special discoveries outside the bone cave.
Recalling the general impression when he came out of the cave, the cave should be not far above the foot of the mountain near the east of the lake, but when he ran to take a look, he was dumbfounded: although the terrain at the foot of the mountain is relatively gentle, it is full of uneven rocks of different sizes, and there are two worlds inside and outside the cave, where can he distinguish clearly.
After running a few times within a hundred paces at the foot of the mountain, without a clue, Dekang scratched his head and had to think of a way.
After a few turns, I looked at Lake Belik at my feet, and then looked at the direction of the cave next to the big rock on the opposite bank, where the footprints on the snow were about to be blown away by the strong wind, and only the footprints on the east bank were still relatively clear.
Dekang's eyes lit up, and there was a way.
He jumped on a large rock, looked at the foot of the hundred or so steps of the mountain from bottom to top, and found that there was only a rare passage up the mountain at a distance of about ten paces to the left in the middle.
In this section of the road, there are basically no stones that can be moved by oneself except for two large rocks in the middle of the road, and of course there are still a lot of small stones; On the side of this passage, there were obviously more rocks from the bottom up than at the foot of the other hills, and at the end of this short passage was a large rock, and further up, the jumble of rocks was indistinguishable from the rest of the mountain.
For two or three hundred winters and summers, the strong members of the Dekang family had been in and out of this cave, and for the sake of convenience, they should find a convenient passage up and down.
Moreover, the members who came in and out were tall and strong, so any stones that could be moved in the passage would be moved to the side, so it was easy to tell the difference when looking at the mountain from a distance.
Dekang looked at his footprints along the way from the cave, and then he thought of using this method to find it. When you see the big rock at the end of the passage, you must have found the right place.
As soon as he ran up, the small rocks scattered on the passage told Dekang that it had not been cleaned for a long, long time, and even so, except for the two large rocks, it was relatively smooth to go up.
Running to the big rock at the end, Dekang faintly smelled a different breath, and went around to see that there was a faint white mist coming out of the small gap between the two rocks, which was blown by the strong cold wind in the Altun Mountains, and was blown away without a trace before it reached the top of the big rock.
Sticking out your nose and smelling it, it was indeed the smell of water in the cave of bones.
Found it yourself.
When I looked inside, I could only see a little rocky ground at the mouth of the cave, and I circled around the big rock to the other side, and this side was all sealed with sand and rocks, and I couldn't see anything.
Looking up, you can see an even smaller rock next to the smaller rock, about half a tail of length apart.
De Kang made a few strokes, and realized that if you push the smaller rock that sealed the entrance of the cave to one side, it will fall on the small rock, and when you leave, you want to seal the mouth of the cave, and with the support of the small rock below, you only need to push it lightly on the other side, and the smaller rock will return to its original position.
Such a simple, ingenious combination does not feel like a masterpiece of nature.
The big rock should naturally stand there, and the smaller rock and the small stepping stone, no matter how you look at it, feel that it is the result of ingenuity, and it is likely that there were no two rocks at the mouth of the cave, and the ancestors were willing to carry them to keep the secret.
Dekang also noticed that the large rock was nearly a position away from the side of the valley, and the ground was relatively flat, completely different from the small slope on the side.
If you look at the surface of the earth, there is no difference between it and the surrounding area, it is all a thin layer of sand.
He took a step outside to look at the edge of the small platform, only to find that the small platform was made of several layers of small stones stacked haphazardly, and the sand washed down from the mountain just filled the gap between the small stones, and when the surface was filled in, the excess sand continued to flow down.
For many winters and summers, the small platform has remained its original appearance thanks to the protection of large rocks.
Moving small rocks together to build them together gives them a foothold and allows small platforms and large rocks to depend on each other, and the character who can think of this ingenious method must be the wise man of the wolf clan, who is likely to be the leader of the Dekang family who entered the bone cave in the early days.
From this, he thought that the Dekang family could dominate the Altyn region, and it was because of the hard work and hard work of countless ancestors who had both strong physique and wisdom after winter and summer that he and Baoyue could have a safe place to take refuge and lick their wounds and accumulate strength after experiencing the tragic changes in the family.
Standing on a small platform, Dekang screamed at the Haxia River Valley.
The glory of the Dekang family, which Dekang deeply experienced for the first time, turned out to be a pile of inconspicuous rocks and two small rocks that sealed the entrance of the cave.
Originally, Dekang wanted to wait until summer came to try his strength at the mouth of the cave to see if he could push away the smaller rocks and go in again to inspect them.
Now, he has inadvertently received valuable inspiration from his ancestors, which makes him understand how to spend the days and nights, winter and summer in the future, how to deal with the rest of the wolf clan, and how to face humans and opponents.
Let them rest here in peace! ’
ran back to the west shore of the lake, and saw Baoyue probing her brain at the entrance of the cave from a distance; What could get her up at such a moment must have been her own long scream at the mouth of the bone cavern that alarmed her.
As soon as he saw the second brother appear, there was definitely no scene of cheering at this time, and Baoyue also screamed at the entrance of the cave, which was regarded as a response to the scream he had just made, and Dekang ran over with a smoke.
"Huh! Second brother. You're not sore at all? Baoyue looked up and down at Dekang.
Dekang picked her up: "It's okay." ”
"Why did you scream just now, neither a call nor a warning?"
The second brother found the location of the bone cave and investigated there. I don't know why I'm screaming, I just can't help but want to vent. ”
"Second brother. Did you see anything? ”
Dekang nodded: "I saw the stones erected by the ancestors at the mouth of the cave, that kind of posture is completely a long-term preparation, if it weren't for something in the middle, it might still be going on." ”
Baoyue's small eyes widened: "Go on!" The bones had already turned to powder. ”
Dekang sighed: "For the Earth Wolf Clan and the Dekang family, I really don't know if that change is a blessing or a curse?" ”
Climbing into the bottom of the cave, Baoyue was still lying on her fur to recuperate, and Dekang leaned on her side to nap, thinking about whether to go out hunting this time and whether to carry the sword on his back.
The advantages of bringing Excalibur are self-evident, but the disadvantages are also obvious.
First of all, hunting requires agile action, carrying a long sword on their backs is somewhat dragging and dragging, and the scabbard will fall on the snow, and there will be a slight friction sound when running all the way, and the little fat sheep with sensitive ears are not so easy to fool, and the strange wind and grass will arouse their alertness and increase the difficulty of their successful capture.
As he hesitated, he somehow remembered the scene he saw at the mouth of the bone cave, and a smile appeared on the corner of Dekang's mouth.
