"Boom—"

The Iron King of the One Thorn moved the stones at the entrance of the cave, blocking four-fifths of the view of the entrance of the cave, and the entrance of the cave was wide open, and the wind and snow continued to pour in from the outside, and the trembling people's brains and necks were stiff, and now some were left, and sure enough, the cold feeling weakened a lot in an instant.

What's more, these two dogs kept barking "wow" and pointed outside, saying that they saw something amazing in the snow, which also made people worry: The snow is big, don't say that your eyelashes can't be opened, even if you open it, what can you see?

Li Gengai frowned, thinking that Ergou was frozen and confused, after all, he didn't seem to have much courage, so he said to King Suo, "Give him some hot water, comfort him and drink some warm up first, let him rest." ”

Originally, Li Reform meant to arrange people to explore the road in turn when the wind and snow subsided a little, but now it seems that these two dogs are useless.

King Suo nodded and felt so, but Ergou always pulled his sleeve and refused to let go, so he had to coax and deceive him to appease him, and for a while the cave returned to calm.

This happened a bit strangely, these two dogs are so timid, even if they are so daring, a snowstorm can scare him to pee?

When the boiling water in the cave was boiled, everyone ate the half-cooked chaff cake, and the wind and snow outside were lighter.

The big dog touched his belly comfortably, and he dozed off with the package on his pillow, and there were still seven or eight hours before the evening came, which was obviously the result of the exhaustion of the long journey just now.

The big dog has already fallen asleep, waking him up to work is obviously unwilling, King Suo is old, climbing the mountain is already laborious, how can he let him explore the road in the snowstorm again? Ergou is scared like that, this is not realistic-

Seeing this, Li Gengai whispered a few words to the Iron King of the Duthorn and Yixi Tsering, Yixi Tsering's eyes rolled, and he poked his head out to look at the situation outside, and said softly, "It can be, but you can't go too far, in order to prevent problems on one side, it's best for two people to go out at the same time, so that if something really happens, they can take care of each other." ”

Thinking about it like this, it made sense, Li Gai and the Iron King of the One Thorn exchanged glances, and the two of them went out with their equipment bags on their backs.

"Da-"

"Smack-"

Because of the sudden loss of two people in the cave, it was even more silent for a while, only a little burning sound of solid fuel, and finally with a "snort", it turned into a wisp of green smoke in the air and disappeared into nothingness.

"Whew-"

The wind and snow outside gradually subsided, but the chill did not subside much, but because of the warmth inside the cave, even the snow balls that occasionally came in quickly melted.

About an hour later, there was a sound in front of the cave that seemed to be someone stepping on snow, and Yeshe Tsering thought that the two of them had returned, but the sound of stepping on the snow seemed to be a little unstoppable, as if he was waiting for something at the entrance of the cave.

After a while, the sound of the snow began to become thin and muffled—

Ergou's already calm expression at this time became frightened again, looking at the entrance of the cave and muttering, "They came, they really came, I knew they would come sooner or later." ”

Automatically ignoring the words of the two dog gods, Yixi Tsering frowned: No, it's just the footsteps of the two of them, how can it sound like there are at least five or six people here?? What he didn't expect was that after the sound of stepping on the snow stopped, the low animal roar began to reach the eardrums, and his face suddenly froze.

"Quick, quick, let's go, there's a-"

As soon as the words fell, a scream broke through the eardrums, and the stone of the cave door was violently rolled open, and what caught the eyes of the four people was something, staring at them deadly, at this moment, the second dog let out a scream as expected, and it spread far, far away.

On the other side at the same time—

Li Gengai and the Iron King walked in the snow for a while, and according to the route given by Yixi Tsering, they found that there was a cave a mile further, this cave was smaller, messy, and full of hay and dead branches, like the nest of some animal, but there were no animals in sight.

"We're going to bring them here, it's closer to our destination, and if we're here, we can just rest here tonight."

The Lone Thorn Iron King nodded slightly, but suddenly squatted down with a feeling in his heart, looking at the fluffy snow on the snow.

"What's wrong?"

"Look here, there are footprints."

Well?

Li Gengai took a look, it was very peaceful, and there were no footprints?

The One-Thorn Iron King brushed aside the snow flakes that had just covered it, revealing a sharp and small paw mark, somewhat similar to the footprints of a jackal—

Li Gengai lowered his head and saw that the footprints were not solid, but he knew that this thing was not big in size and walked lightly; And some of the footprints are about 35 centimeters short between the soles of the feet, and more than 100 centimeters long, which proves that this thing is very responsive, and the speed of running is very fast, and once it jumps, it is almost comparable to a cheetah. Look at the footprints again, but there are still slight differences in size, and some even cover some of them, which also proves that this thing is not just one.

Li Gengai picked up a hair that fell to the ground, almost melting with the snow, and was a little cautious, "Maybe what the two dogs saw was not an illusion, maybe there was really something." ”

The Lone Thorn Iron King was also a little cautiously unsure.

The two stood up and looked around, and Li Gengai was suddenly stunned in his heart: these footprints were fine at first, but then they were messy, and they all went to the foot of the mountain, could it be-

The faces of the two changed greatly, and they were about to rush to the foot of the mountain, but in the cave at the foot of the mountain, a terrible scream suddenly came out, which immediately tensed the nerves of the two of them.

"Whew-"

Li Reform and the Iron King of the Thorn came to the cave as fast as they could, but found that the cave had long since disappeared, but there were pools of blood on the ground, and there were messy blankets discarded, which were obviously suddenly attacked.

Looks like those things did come here.

What to do?

Li Gengai pursed his lips: For today's plan, let's find them first.

The two of them began to follow the messy footprints in front of the cave, but the footprints went straight up the mountain.

In the mountains?

Li reform's eyebrows trembled, and he trekked up the mountain.

The snow is fading from the snow, but it is difficult to see the road completely.

The two of them waded up the mountain in the snow, and the biting cold wind drilled straight into their feet and necks, and even their tongues were shivering, but the footprints were actually hard, and they disappeared abruptly on a certain piece of flat land halfway up the mountain???

！！！

That's right, it disappeared suddenly.

There were at least fifteen minutes in the middle of the period until the two of them heard the scream, and what happened in those fifteen minutes was ever-changing, but the footprints disappeared halfway up the mountain, where would they go?

Looking around, only a piece of snow remained, and the Iron King sighed slightly, and some bad thoughts were born in his heart.

The Dark Lands –

"Whew-"

Heavy gasps, mixed with bloody breath, rushed into the nose of the person, the eyes of the second dog dripping and rolling in the sockets, pressing the wound of the big dog, softly, "Master, we are here, will we be found by those things?" ”

With a few scratches on his face that seemed to have been scratched by some claws, King Suo whispered "shhh ”

In a huge icicle cave, the big dog, the second dog, and the lock king hiding behind the rock, on the line of life and death, looked at the things outside the rock, constantly patrolling for the figures of several people.

When those things walk, the contact between the soles of their feet and the ground is only like a dragonfly touching water, and the sound they make is very light and almost imperceptible, and it is precisely because of this that they can often get close to their prey in silence and bite off the throat of their prey.

"Rub-"

A few things seemed to have been searching for this place for long enough but found nothing, and they got together to exchange opinions, and finally reluctantly left.

"Whew-"

Ergou let out a lax sigh indifferently, and the forehead of the lock king instantly burst out with green tendons, and he covered his mouth and held it tightly.

The claws of the thing that had just left had been raised, and he shook his brain away, but he suddenly sensed the movement, a big jump, and he was about to come back, but there was a terrible animal cry over there, as if there was an emergency in "those things", and the thing that was about to rush over looked at this side with some dissatisfaction, but still had to jump away and walked away.

The eyeballs in the eyes of the second dog almost fell out, just now the moment of life and death, if it wasn't for the lock king to cover his mouth, the back may have sung "Shandandan is red and gorgeous", and now I glimpsed those things gone, and suddenly a heart was put down at the same time, and I had to sigh for my good luck.

"Master? ——" The second dog called, and the lock king frowned, "Don't speak, pick up the big dog, let's go, this place is not suitable for a long time." ”

"Okay."

On the ground of ice and snow, but seeing that there was almost a piece of flesh missing from the big dog's thigh, the bloody wound was deep in the bones, and it was obvious that even the major arteries had been torn open, and the lock king sighed, and hurriedly tore off the corners of his clothes and bandaged them simply, but the big dog had already fainted in pain, no matter how he tossed, he couldn't wake up for the time being.

When the three of them walked with difficulty for more than an hour with the help of the big dog, and came to a low eaves under the rock, with an unobstructed view of all sides, there was nothing to shelter, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, put the big dog down and began to beat his legs beside the rock to rest.

King Suo hurriedly took out the kettle and untied the wound of the big dog, the wound of the big dog was serious, and he was constantly oozing blood, so he carefully cleaned the kettle and took out a clean cloth and a soft pad, and then began to carefully bandage him.

Ergou patrolled left and right, scared, "Master, those things won't catch up again, right?" ”

"We've been walking for so long, we're going to catch up early, I don't know what attracted the attention of those ghosts just now, that's our fate, it's just-" sighed slightly: I just don't know what happened to that Yixi Tsering.

Li Reform doesn't need to worry: he is an ordinary person, but the Iron King of the Thorn is not, although those things are terrible, if he provokes the Iron King of the Thorn, it is also a dead end.

Saying-

The King of Locks looked around and sighed a little: Why did you fall into this place? And the more you go, how can you get out?

Ergou just went to explore the way, and he hasn't come back yet.

King Suo looked at the big dog who fell into a coma: I didn't see anything, the big dog became like this, it is estimated that it will be difficult to walk in the future, or or-

But suddenly, a cry of surprise came from the front, "Master, master, come quickly, I found something good!" ”
