.

"Humph! If you're so powerful, why don't you just eat me? Do you have to do so much? ”

Li Bai saw that he knew that he had no way out, so he simply didn't run. And Li Bai was also very puzzled by the question that Wentian said, after all, with his strength, he could eat Wentian anytime and anywhere, including now. But Kui Yu didn't, he didn't even hurt Wentian a single hair, he just wanted to catch him. Therefore, this made Li Bai feel very strange.

When he looked at Kui, he heard him reply, "Because I am not as stupid as my kind, even if I don't have that group of stinky mortals, it can't eat you!" ”

"The same kind? You mean that he just wants to eat my qui in the morning? Wen Tian frowned, as if he understood some ins and outs, and then asked, "Then do you know why I became like a big ball of fire?" ”

"I said, you're not like any other mortal! So now, you have to come with me. Kui Yu said, and suddenly stretched out his big hand, grabbed Wentian and pinched it in his hand.

"Ask the sky!" Tassel saw that Wentian was arrested, and his face was full of worry.

"Don't be afraid of the tassel, I won't let it hurt you." After Wentian comforted the tassel with this, he said loudly to Kui Yu: "Stinky Kui, since you have already caught me, why don't you release the tassel quickly?" ”

Wentian thought that Kui Yu would fulfill what he had said before, but he no longer bothered with Wen Tian, but stepped forward and led them through those sand pillars, not knowing where to go. But after only a few steps, suddenly, those huge swirling pillars of sand turned into loose sand one by one and fell.

In a short time, all these pillars of sand dissipated without a trace. At this time, Ghost Dance Long Yin and Ghost Dance Liuyang appeared with a group of people.

It turned out that when the ghost dance dragon Yin was circling with the sand monsters by the sea, he accidentally found that they were particularly afraid of water. It only takes a tear-sized drop to make these sand monsters self-defeating. This is also the reason why the tassel was able to break free from the sand monster yesterday.

Because of this, Ghost Dance Dragon Yin guessed that Kui Yu's death hole should be afraid of water with years of experience. So immediately, he rushed to support Ghost Dance Liuyang with a group of people. After the water dispersed the sand pillars, they joined forces and threw the water bladders filled with water and without twisting the mouth one by one before Kui Yu could react.

In an instant, the sac boiled and overflowed!

The water that splashed on Kuiyu's body began to corrode his body like poisonous juice, and it was extremely fast. Only then did he hear the screams of Kui Yu, and the eight-armed hand on its back was gone, and Wentian and Tassel were also saved and fell down. In less than a few breaths, the huge kui tong turned into a pool of blood and seeped into the sand, and when it blew with the wind, it scattered without a trace, as if nothing had happened.

"So this sand monster is afraid of water?" Li Bai felt very incredible, he didn't expect such a huge and powerful monster to be afraid of water. But after thinking about it, I understood it again, after all, water is an extremely scarce thing in the dry desert.

After the war, the next thing is boring, sad, but joyful to clean up the mess. When he returned to the camp, he wanted to tell the ghost uncle the good news. But he found that the ghost uncle was gone, as if he had disappeared.

He went to look for it like crazy and asked, but no one in the entire Ghost Dance tribe knew where the ghost uncle had gone, and he hadn't even seen it. In the end, if it weren't for the Ghost Dance Liuyang knocking him out, I really don't know what Wentian would have done.

Li Bai was very curious about this, so he asked the mysterious man in black, "Where did the ghost uncle go?" It's a desert as far as the eye can see, will he survive? ”

The mysterious man in black just smiled and didn't answer, but said, "Let's go on!" With a wave of his hand, he ascended, and the sky that had been daytime became dark in an instant, and it was night.

Li Bai looked and saw Wentian sitting alone on the edge of the sea, looking at the stars in the sky. The strange thing is that Li Bai suddenly seemed to have a heart in touch with him, and he could completely feel the loneliness of Wentian here, a kind of loneliness abandoned by his last relatives.

It's like being taken away in an instant from a small dependence, loneliness, endless loneliness. In the end, Wentian's eyes were moist, and he muttered softly: "Uncle Ghost, don't you want me?" ”

That's when the tassel appeared. She hid behind the sand slope not far from Wentian as she had done last time, and threw him with a pebble mischievously. Wentian felt it and knew that it was a tassel, but he didn't look back, and still sat indifferently on the edge of the sea, motionless like a stone. Until the tassel threw all the pebbles in his hand, the same was true for Wentian.

"Humph! Are you wood? ”

Tassel came to Wentian with a small mouth, although he looked angry, but he looked so cute, especially in the moonlight of this dry desert. But to his surprise, Wentian was completely puzzled by this style, even though the tassel was so big that a big living person stood in front of him and blocked his view. But Wentian still turned a blind eye, like petrification, and there was no reaction at all.

"Hey! Big fool, big wood, do you hear me talking to you? Hey, big wood, hey......"

The tassel shouted for a while, but Wentian still didn't respond. Simply, the tassel stopped shouting, but sat on the side of Wentian, learned to ask the sky, quietly, and accompanied him like this. As the night deepened, sleepiness suddenly swept in, so unconsciously, the tassel leaned on Wentian's shoulder and fell asleep.

When he woke up the next day, Tassel found that Wentian was gone, but he saw that he was covered with a piece of clothing, which was Wentian. Taking it away, Tassel was inexplicably moved in his heart, and without saying a word, he ran quickly to the camp, wanting to find Wentian.

As soon as he arrived, he saw Wentian sitting in front of a extinguished bonfire with a dagger in his hand. Looking at Wentian's appearance, Tassel smiled uncontrollably and shouted loudly: "Big wood, why did you come here?" ”

With that, Tassel ran to Wentian's side and sat down obediently. But unexpectedly, Wentian just looked up at her, and then continued to lower his head to sharpen his dagger. This, which made the tassel very angry, pouted again, and said, "Big wood, can you say something to me?" If you don't talk to me again, I'll ignore you from now on. ”

"What do you want me to say?" Wentian didn't look up, he was still grinding the dagger, and his tone was also ancient and emotionless.

Seeing that Wentian finally spoke, the tassel's angry little face blossomed. After thinking for a while, he said, "Just say why did you leave me alone by the sea?" If another turtle comes out and catches me, who will save me? ”

The answer that Tassel wanted to hear was that Wentian said that he would go to save her, but unexpectedly, Wentian replied to her: "You fell asleep last night, and I couldn't wake you up no matter how I told you." It was so cold again, so I came back to sleep first! ”

"Big wood, you...... You...... Hum! I'll ignore you in the future! Rotten wood, stinky wood! Tassel was really angry now, and after slamming the clothes he had been holding tightly in his hand on Wentian's body, he turned his head and ran away with tears in his eyes.

But he didn't know that Wentian did this on purpose, because just half an hour ago, the big leader Ghost Dance Long Yin called him over, and after talking about it, he said that he would drive Wentian out of the Ghost Dance tribe.

"Father, why do you have to ask the heavens to leave? He saved the life of the tassel, and he also saved the lives of our Ghost Dance tribesmen. If it hadn't been for Wen Tian to lure Kui away yesterday, my mother and I, as well as those clansmen, would have died long ago. As soon as Ghost Dance Liuyang heard that he was going to drive Wentian away, he immediately stepped forward to intercede in every way, but Ghost Dance Long Yin didn't seem to be shaken by this.

"He saved our Ghost Dance Tribe, but in the same way, our Ghost Dance Tribe also saved him. And don't forget, if it weren't for him, how would our Ghost Dance Tribe be in so much trouble? How could a high priest die? ”

And the reason why the ghost dance dragon Yin wanted to drive Wentian away was mainly because the death of the high priest had too much impact on the clansmen. The tribesmen thought that Wentian had blasphemed the god of drought and desert water before and should have died, but the high priest saved Wentian, so the tribesmen thought that it was the god of drought and desert water who took the life of the high priest. It is also believed that if Wentian is not driven out of the Ghost Dance Tribe, then all the clansmen will be punished by the Drought Desert Water God.

Ghost Dance Liuyang also knew this, but he didn't want Wentian to be driven away, so he continued to intercede and said, "Father, isn't there any other way to stay with Wentian?" Winter is approaching in the desert, and if he leaves us now, he will die. ”

"Liuyang, you remember to me, he is from the Xuanyuan tribe, not from our Ghost Dance tribe, we don't need to put the safety of all our clansmen at risk for the sake of him as a foreigner."

Li Bai was very angry when he heard this, and said to the mysterious man in black: "How can he be like this? It's so ruthless! ”

"Ruthless? No! The mysterious man in black said: "Ghost Dance Dragon Yin, what he said is right, and what he did is not right, because there is no so-called kindness on the desert, and being kind to outsiders is cruel to one's own people." Therefore, the life of any foreigner is as worthless as mustard and can be discarded. ”

Li Bai was silent and wanted to refute, but found that what the mysterious man in black said could not be refuted at all. Helpless, Li Bai could only remind himself that this was not the world he was familiar with, let alone look at the current world with the idea of his own world.

Fortunately, Ghost Dance Liuyang was very unwilling to do what his father did, and suddenly said: "Since my father insists on doing this, then, I will now recommend Wentian to become a member of our Ghost Dance tribe." ”

"What?" The ghost dragon Yin Deng's face was full of surprise: "Are you crazy?" You might as well just kill him! ”

Li Bai was puzzled and asked the mysterious man in black. The mysterious man in black said that there is a rule among the various tribes in the desert, as long as there is a recommendation from the clan, then a foreigner can become a member of his own tribe. But this is only possible if you pass a test, a fundamentally impossible test, and live with the wolf.

The desert people of the desert believe that the wolf is the most united animal, and that everything but their own kind is their common enemy. Therefore, the desert people learned to live in wolves, learned to be united with wolves, and because of this, the desert people engraved the wolf pattern on the banner of their tribe to worship. Because in their eyes, the wolf is actually the embodiment of the god of drought and desert water.

To survive with wolves is to throw a man into a pack of wolves to survive. As long as you can survive in the wolf pack for a month, then it means that with the permission of the drought and desert water god, not only can you change from a foreigner to a native of the tribe, even if you have committed a big sin before, you will not be guilty of the past and be forgiven by the tribesmen. This is also a means of punishing the great evildoers among the various tribes of the desert, and over the years, countless people have been thrown into the wolf pack, and as a result, none of them have managed to survive, let alone a month, even for three days.

Now, Ghost Dance Liuyang actually offered to let Wentian participate in the test of surviving with the wolf, which was something that the big leader Ghost Dance Dragon Yin never expected, after all, this was more cruel than driving Wentian out of the tribe. is completely complete, which is equivalent to sending Wentian directly to a dead end. That's why Ghost Dance Dragon Yin was so surprised and thought that Ghost Dance Liuyang was crazy. However, Ghost Dance Liuyang has already made up his mind and says, "Father, please allow me!" ”

"Good! As long as he can survive in the wolves for a month, then from now on, he will be a member of our Onidance tribe. ”

Wentian didn't say a word about this from beginning to end, because he didn't know what to say, and he didn't even know who to be angry about. And the ghost dance dragon Yin did it right, the trouble encountered by the ghost dance tribe was indeed caused by him.

It is not someone else who is at fault, but precisely himself.

Wen Tian understood this, and also thought about leaving the Ghost Dance Tribe and no longer causing trouble to the entire tribe. However, the appearance of the Ghost Dance Liuyang made Wentian dispel this idea. He is not a ghost uncle, but he is more like a ghost uncle, which makes Wen Tian can't help but feel that he is reliable, and feels that as long as he believes in Ghost Dance Liuyang, there is nothing wrong with it.

"He'll be fine, right?" Li Bai was in a very complicated mood when he asked this, because the road in front of Wentian now seemed to be a dead end.

But the mysterious man in black still didn't answer, only said: "Believing too much in a person is actually a kind of dependence, and as long as a person has a heart of dependence, then he is destined to become a strong person." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Li Bai asked.

"Do you have dependencies?" The mysterious man in black asked rhetorically.

Li Bai fell into silence, and silence seemed to be the best answer here. But Li Bai was still a little unwilling and lucky, and agreed with the statement of the mysterious man in black, but he didn't agree with it, which was very contradictory, so he asked: "Who in the world can really be free of dependence?" ”

"It depends on what you mean by dependence?" The mysterious man in black paused, then looked at Li Bai with complicated eyes, and said, "But you can't deny that the real strong are lonely." ”。

Li Bai chose to be silent about this, which can be regarded as a default answer. After a pause, he asked, "How long have we been here?" ”

"Instantly!"
