The sun was already slanting on the top of the great elm tree in the west.

and all that was on the earth became yellow.

I don't know when, the western sky has been covered by the gradually rising black clouds.

In the blink of an eye, the sun, which was originally as bright as a brazier, sank helplessly into the surging clouds and smoke.

The earth suddenly became dark.

With a cool breeze, a few small trees on the side of the road made a "whoosh" sound.

Shoko knew in her heart that it was going to rain tonight.

This kind of weather is in line with the old family's proverb: black clouds catch heat, and heavy rain does not stay overnight.

Shoko felt a little uneasy in her heart and glanced towards the end of the road. Feet, can't help but speed up.

Xiangzi rushed to a small river across the road, and it was already dark.

After a while, his mouth was dry, and when he heard the "whooshing" sound of the river, Xiangzi's heart felt a little cool.

He hurriedly put down his luggage, drank it beautifully while lying on the river, and took advantage of the situation to wash his face.

Only then did I hear my stomach gurgling.

He looked around, and saw an aspen tree by the river, as thick as a stone mill. The lush foliage stretched diagonally to the other side of the river.

Xiangzi was happy in his heart, it seems that tonight, he will spend the night under the tree.

He carried his luggage under the tree, and sat down against the tree on the leeward side.

He took out the naan and dried beef, and began to chew it heavily.

Filling his stomach, a feeling of sleepiness can't wait to hit Shoko's body and mind.

He swept his eyes, and the sky was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

He shook off his cotton robe and wrapped it around his body, and sat down softly under the tree.

Not far away, there was a crow that had been robbed of its nest, and it crowed twice at an unknown time.

In front of me, except for the subtle and crisp "whooshing" sound of the river, the earth is as silent as a deep sleep.

After a while, the sky began to rain drops, and, more and more, it became denser and denser.

The raindrops fall on the poplar leaves, making a clear "click" sound.

And Xiangzi, as if he didn't know it, fell into a sweet dreamland.

A burst of thunder from far and near shattered the silence of the earth.

It is like the green hills near and far, which should make a dull roar together.

Shoko was also woken up by this shocking voice.

In the dark night, I still can't see my fingers.

The rain was still raining for a while, and it was falling slowly.

The air was filled with thick moisture.

Everything seemed quiet and vague like a dream.

However, to Shoko's surprise and slight fear, there were several shiny things in front of him, glowing with a faint blue light.

He was looking at himself in a flash.

It was as if the stars in the sky had fallen to the earth.

The light was cold and deep, revealing a breathtaking coldness.

Xiangzi couldn't help but shudder, and took a closer look with courage, and suddenly gasped in shock.

The hairs all over his body stood upside down - he saw the outline of the wolf.

Moreover, the one closest to him was reachable.

A slight gasp, accompanied by a faint fishy stench, penetrated his nostrils like smoke.

He was silent for a moment, then carefully swept his surroundings.

By the number of lights, there were at least four wolves in front of him.

Moreover, he knew in his heart that if he moved, the wolf in front of him would not hesitate to bite his throat.

And the other wolves will also rush at it like lightning.

In the blink of an eye, his body would be torn apart.

He tilted his head slightly and glanced at the trunk behind him.

In the darkness, the trees glowed with a faint white light.

With a very small movement, he felt two stones from his waist.

Secretly calculated: if he stood up suddenly, the wolf in front of him might be so frightened that he took two steps back, but he could take the opportunity to shoot a stone and hurt it.

Immediately after, two wolves will pounce on him at the same time.

Knock one back with a stone, and the other punch and kick will be able to deal with it.

But what's worse is that at this moment, the fourth wolf will attack him.

Although he was good, he was really not very sure about dodging the blow of the fourth wolf.

Moreover, he knew very well that if he was entangled by one wolf, the other three would pounce on him at the same time.

At that time, even if he was covered with hands, he couldn't resist the tearing of the four wolves.

There is only one result, and that is to be eaten by them as a good meal.

However, Shoko knows better in his heart that he and the wolf will lose in the end.

Because, as long as his body moves, the wolf will pounce without hesitation.

Therefore, he can only choose to fight hard.

With his mind set up, he secretly adjusted his breath, gathered his internal strength, and prepared to attack the wolf with lightning speed.

Just as he was about to attack, in the distance, there was a faint wolf howl, and from far and near.

Immediately, several blue and faint points of light in front of him also began to shake.

Xiangzi's heart sank again, thinking that this time he was dead.

The four wolves in front of me were all difficult to deal with, and I don't know how many of them came.

Unexpectedly, the things handed over by Master Guangzhi were not completed, and he died in the wolf's mouth.

I couldn't help but feel a sad emotion, which hit like a mountain of seas.

The momentum that had just gathered softened again.

However, he will not sit still.

So, once again, I secretly tried my luck, intending to fight to the death.

Just as he was about to make a move, the wolf's howl sounded again, and it was very close.

Immediately, the bright spot began to shift direction, and gradually faded away.

Shoko looked at the sudden change in front of her in disbelief.

Faintly, he seemed to see a wolf, standing far away by the river, looking at him.

One hind leg, stiffly lifted off the ground.

Shoko's heart was hot - it was the she-wolf!

He stood up excitedly.

I saw that the she-wolf raised her head, let out two screams into the sky, and after a dull and long howl, she bent her hind legs and gradually disappeared into the vast black.

The earth turned into a cool silence again.

Before I knew it, the rain had quietly stopped.

A gust of wind blew, and the poplar leaves made a "whooshing" sound, and then shook off a handful of bean-sized droplets.

Shoko felt a wave of hot stuff rise from her abdomen and choke softly in her throat.

As soon as his legs were loosened, his body fell to the ground like a leaking sack.

At some point, the eastern sky, the black and gray clouds, was torn open like a small river, revealing the white sky.

The scenery in front of you vaguely blurs their respective outlines.

On the other side of the creek, a winding path stretches into the hazy darkness.
