183F, three years ago

Moran recalled that the first time Noha mentioned three years ago was when she asked why the two were able to communicate, and Noha seemed to mean that he had such an ability after "a certain incident" three years ago.

The second mention of three years ago was when Noha said he was out hunting for the first time and met a Tyrannosaurus rex. Moran praised him for his good fortune, but he himself said that he could not remember how he had come back.

Now it's three years ago when my grandfather disappeared......

Moran thought for a moment and said, "Could it be that your fear was also left after an incident three years ago?"

With Noha's courageous forward before, Moran felt more and more that Noha's fear was too abnormal now.

"I guess it should be......" Noha's ears drooped again, and his eyes were timid.

"Noha. Moran said, crouching down to meet Noha's eye level, "Whatever happened three years ago, you have to learn to face it." Blindly escaping, just accumulating these bad things more and more, if one day suddenly erupts in the future...... Trust me, you won't like that ending. ”

Those eyes were crystal clear in the sunlight, with an illusion that could penetrate everything...... But it's reassuring.

"But...... No......" Noha said, "I can't remember anything from three years ago......"

"Amnesia, how can that ......?" Moran wondered.

"Although I have amnesia, I am still afraid, and I don't dare to go out at all, and I don't dare to raise hairless apes anymore...... Dr. Yang Coco said that I had closed my memory because of excessive fear. Really...... At that time, I was just the same as I am now, so cowardly......"

Noha became even more negative.

"Don't deny yourself like that, other people may not be better than you when they encounter what you encounter. For example, if you change to Salamon, you can't say that you will cry for mercy from your father and mother. They may not even be able to come back alive. Moran reassured.

"Yes...... Is that so?"

"It must be. Moran smiled and said, "Noha, why don't you try to tell you something you remember, and maybe you can get some clues from it." ”

Looking up, Noha saw only that bright smile, and he himself seemed to have plucked up courage with that smile.

"The ...... I remember"

-

With Moran's encouragement, Noha began to try to overcome the fear that was constantly surging up in his heart, and in the forest where the occasional birdsong was heard, he talked about his experience.

The Elling children pee and begin to train in hunting-related skills, and the Ellings are considered adults at the age of fourteen, the year they will hunt alone for the first time in their lives.

But...... Since birth, Noha has been frail and sickly and has not been able to participate in hunting training at all, and he has spent his childhood in the house.

However, at the age of fourteen, Noha felt that even if he could not hunt in the future, he wanted to take this opportunity to see what was going on outside.

Noha persuaded his grandfather, but the other party said that at least let him follow.

Grandpa Hei Yamu and his hunting partner Doudou, when they were young, were also among the best hunting experts in the clan, and if they followed, they would be much safer.

In this way, Noha followed his grandfather and Doudou, plus his hunting partner Oos, who had grown up with him since childhood, to go hunting.

(Moran had already heard two notable points by this time.) Poor health since childhood? and...... Noha's hunting buddies?)

Noha, who had gone out for the first time and had seen the vastness of the world so much that he was overly excited, was carried on his back by Oos, who instructed him to run around, even to climb the trees, just to pick the fruit.

Then he heard the cry of the young dragon in the tree, and instructed Ooss to run over, and Noha was so loving that he carried the cub back himself.

But......

He ignored the Tyrannosaurus rex that was eyeing him on the side.

Those fierce eyes hid behind the layers of leaves.

Even if Grandpa reminded them in time, they only had one way left.

Run!

Noha hugged the cub, Ao Oss held Noha, and began to run wildly, Grandpa and Doudou were behind them, and Grandpa also seemed to be trying to attack the Tyrannosaurus Rex to slow down the other party.

But after that the memory ...... Noha can't remember.

When he regained his memory, it was Doudou who carried him on his back and jumped on the death slide, desperately took him out, and then returned to the clan.

Doudou's injuries were very serious, and because of his age, it took a year or two to barely recover.

However, after that, his physical condition was not suitable for hunting, and he could only assist Noha in some heavy work.

And after returning, Noha continued to go out in fear, always feeling that once he stepped out of the tribe, something terrible would happen.

But knowing that now, both of them are walking leisurely in the woods, Noha's fear has been reduced a lot.

-

"Where is that?" Moran asked.

"Did I just say that?" said Noha, covering his mouth, as if he had said something he shouldn't have said.

"You said it. Moran confirmed.

"Uh...... Forget it, if it's you, it should be fine to say it. ”

Noha recalled.

"The landslide of death is at the northern end of the tribe, about a day or two away. It was a very steep place, at least a mile long. The other end of the Death Landslide stretches into a pitch-black cavern where the bottom of the landslide is not visible. We call that place the Millennium Dragon Cave, and legend has it that there is an ancient dragon with a lifespan of 1,000 years. ”

"Thousand-year-old dragon?"

"Well, there's always a terrifying roar coming from inside, it's scary. I think it was in that place that I experienced something horrible that caused me to lose my memory. And Grandpa and Oos...... I think most of them lost their lives. After I gained the ability to communicate, I kept trying to ask something from Doudou's mouth, but Doudou didn't answer as if he didn't understand anything. ”

"Roar? Probably the whining of the wind through the cave? That sound is terrifying, but once you know it, there's nothing scary. ”

"Could it be that when the wind passes through the cave, it will cause an earthquake?"

"What?"

"The day I lost my memory is called Dragon Movement Day. That's what I found out later...... It is said that on that day, the Millennium Dragon Cave emitted an unprecedented terrifying cry and caused an earthquake, and all the Ellings in the tribe felt it...... The Ryujin Festival, which had been held for many years, was restarted. I...... I didn't even dare to tell me that I had come back from the death slide, for fear that I would be attacked by the whole village! Because judging from the last memories, it is very likely that my grandfather and I did something that should not have done something that angered Lord Ryujin!"

Noha said, stopped, crouched down with his head in his hands, shivered, and returned to his previous appearance of fear.

"It's all me, it's all my ......"

Only then did Moran understand that what Noha was hiding was not the Millennium Dragon Cave, but that he had returned from the Millennium Dragon Cave that day......

"Noha, you can't blame yourself like this, it's not your fault at all......"

"What do you know? It's all because of me, it's because of me that the Ryujin Festival is held again! Every year, the Ryujin Festival...... I'm going to give an Elling as a sacrifice!"
