Skull Forest(16)
Calm doesn't know when he fell asleep, and woke up because his face was uncomfortable with wet heat.
When she opened her eyes, she realized that it was a wild wolf licking her face.
After calming down, the wolf dragged her again and refused to let her leave, but no matter how she walked forward, the wolf followed closely behind him and refused to leave.
In the past few days, her relationship with the wild wolf has become closer and closer, but it is the first time that she has been entangled by it like today, and she calmly thinks that it is with her for too long in this cold cave where there are no other creatures, so it will be like this, and then think about the sudden awakening of herself last night, and feel that she must leave here.
But in the past month, he has almost understood all the surrounding situations, but he has not found any way out, and after lying down yesterday, he inadvertently glanced at Tianding in the cold cave and found that it was much thinner than any other place, and maybe he could really leave there.
Well, even if this is the case, there is no 100% guarantee that they will definitely go out, first of all, not to mention the height above the ground, they are overwhelmed, and even if they go up, the hard ice crystals are not something they can break.
The ice crystals here are either ordinary icebergs frozen snow, or they have not melted a little after being irradiated by the sun for thousands of years, but because of the cold air in the cold cave, the snow on the surface is getting thicker and thicker.
But she wouldn't give up a chance until she tried it, and it was then that she heard a thud from above the cold cave.
In fact, at this time, the boy was smashing the cold cave from the outside, trying to get calm out quickly.
Yesterday he was taken to the courtyard by the old man after he fell unconscious, but I don't know why the courtyard disappeared after waking up, and the two of them woke up and were lying on the haystack and were covered in fog and couldn't see what was around at all.
And at this moment, from the 'outside of the house' came the old man's painful voice, when he groped in the thick fog to the old man's side, the old man fell on the road, he was not injured at all, but it seemed that his breathing was getting weaker and weaker, and the whole person could no longer stand up on his own, so he could only lie on the ground and gasp for breath.
But he still told the boy at the last moment before he passed out that he was unconscious, "Quick, go find calm and take her out of ......"
He was only halfway through his words, and before she could be told how to enter the cold cave, the old man passed out and couldn't get up.
The boy saw a figure flash in the distance, but it could only be seen vaguely and fleetingly, and when the boy chased after him, he only picked up a bunch of blood-red flowers on the ground, but she did not know what kind it was, and the next moment it had withered.
The boy didn't have time to think about it too much now, so he put the old man on the haystack for the time being and sprinkled firewood and leaves on him as a shield, and then scattered the rice that he hadn't eaten along the road as a mark, because the birds and beasts in the forest were all dead except for the wolves, so he didn't have to worry about being pecked away by the birds, but he couldn't enter the cold cave at all after he arrived at it, and the ice gate firmly sealed the entrance to the cold cave, and if it wasn't for the old man himself to come here, no one would have been able to open it.
At this moment, the boy and Calm thought of the same exit, so he climbed to the top of the cold cave and began to smash at Tianding non-stop, but for this ice crystal, the stone in the boy's hand smashed it as if it was gently brushed with his hand, and it couldn't be smashed at all, not only did Tianding not crack after a long time, but even the 'weapon' that the boy could find was worn out by the ice crystal little by little.
The boy did not forget to shout the name of calm while smashing, and gradually his hand had been ground up by the stone and continued to smash it down, and the blood blister was punctured by the stone and his hands were covered with blood, and because the boy had been kneeling on the top of the sky, the sun was emitted by ice crystals on his legs and even caused skin burns, but he had no time to take care of these, all he thought about was the old man's advice to himself - he must save her, and this month of getting along made the boy treat the old man as his grandfather, Although he is an adult, in front of the old man, he has exactly the same attitude as when he treated his grandfather, and in a trance, he seems to have returned to his childhood, and he has become the little beggar who is very happy despite his hard life.
The boy's sweat dripped onto the ice crystals and was instantly evaporated into water vapor, and the plan to smash through the ice crystals did not make any progress, the greater the force he used, the greater the force of the rebound to himself, and the more severe the injury on his hand became, and the more he felt sorry for the old man, so he thought of the old thing that delayed his grandfather's treatment because of himself, and the more guilty he felt, he turned all his guilt into motivation to support him to keep smashing hard at Tianding.
In the last blow, the reaction force generated by the boy's strength directly shook him out, and a piece of ice crystal on the Tianding shook because of this, and the shaking of this ice crystal drove the shaking of the entire Tianding, and finally the entire cold cave and the surrounding mountains also shook together.
Then the cold hole shattered with a loud bang, and both the boy and Calm flew out because of the tremor of the earth, and the wolf flew into the depths of the forest, separating them once more.
This time the trembling of the earth was not as big as the impact of the last blood tornado disappearing, but the chain reaction should not be underestimated, and immediately after, the caves of the surrounding peaks also began to shake, and then the entire forest also began to shake.
The boy didn't have time to think about it, instinctively grabbed his calm hand and fled, and with a huge impact, the two of them left the forest directly to the entrance, and then the forest behind them began to sink completely, and the pavilion that used it as a boundary collapsed.
After a month, the boy and Calm finally left the Skull Forest, but the price was painful, in exchange for the sinking of the entire forest and the death of the old man.
Before being picked up and sent to the Imperial Hospital, she reached out to the forest, hoping to catch the qiē in front of her at the last moment, or to save the old man from it.
When she awoke, she was in her own bedroom in the prince's mansion, and the boy had been sent here, lying on the grass bunk across her table, under examination by the imperial physician and the dressing of the medical servant.
Calmly thinking of the old man buried in the Skull Forest, he couldn't help but leave a tear.
Calm didn't know how many times she had shed tears, but she knew that every time she cried, it was because of the death or separation of her loved ones.
But there was not much time for her to indulge in sad self-blame, because at this time, the king of the Huns was rushing here with a large number of iron horsemen to arrest Calm and the boy.
