Chapter 51: The First Night to Save the World
After he spoke, Andrew and the others could see the shadow clearly.
A furry cat face, peeking out from behind a tree to look at them. But this time it didn't immediately retract, but pointed its paws to its mouth, as if people were putting their fingers to their lips to signal others to be quiet.
After a while, the strange animal came out from behind the tree again. He looked around, as if afraid of attention, and "shh
"Come on." Andrew said: "We all stick close, and if it's an enemy, we'll fight." Although the result of a battle may be that we are all captured. ”
The men pressed close together and walked towards the tree, until they reached the place where the cat had been standing behind the tree, but from there he continued to retreat.
He lowered his voice and said to them in a hoarse voice: "Go in, go inside, come to me, there is danger outside." ”
led Andrew to a very dark place. The cat just started talking to them.
"Don't be too loud, even here, we're not safe enough."
"Who are you afraid of?" Tony said curiously, "I thought there was no one here but us." Also, who are you? ”
"My name is Tom." In this dim moonlight, several people could vaguely see that it was a gray-blue cat. Dressed in neat jeans, a pair of green eyes in the dark are particularly obvious: "Respected daughter of the unicorn, and the son of wisdom!" Now the leader of the Black Tiger Gang and the king of Toy Country have united. You can't go to the royal capital at all. ”
"Who are you? How can we trust you? Andrew said.
"This ......," Tom took something out of his trouser pocket and handed it to them, "you must know what it is!" ”
"It's Beta's goggles!" Taking the handing of the item, Pepper and Tony both recognized it as the goggles that Beta had been carrying. Because there is a difference between the appearance of goggles and the appearance of the earth. So it's very easy to tell.
"I'm a friend of Beta. Believe in me and follow me! This is not the place to talk, and I must take you to a place where you can talk and eat. So saying, Tom hurried into the woods.
"Shall we go?" The crowd looked at each other.
"Let's go!" Andrew whispered, "You know that one named Beta, don't you?" Even the traps have to be recognized. ”
"yes." Tony nodded, if the other party is really Beta's friend, then everything is easy to say, if not, then this goggle is a danger signal.
They all hurried forward after their new friend.
Tom's speed was astonishingly fast, and he led them through the thickest part of the forest for more than half an hour. Without saying a word, when Tony in the back wanted to say something, he turned his head and made a silent appearance. It wasn't until even Andrew couldn't help but ask that he turned around and said, "It's coming soon." ”
This immediately lasted another ten minutes, and the group walked out of the forest in the moonlight and saw the scenery outside the forest.
Overhead, the sky was black and blue, the moon was still shining like jade, and the number of plants on the periphery of the forest began to decrease gradually, about a hundred meters, you could see a steep and narrow valley entrance, and the color of the valley land on both sides could not be seen clearly. A few plants stood on it, waving along with the night breeze.
"We're going to get home soon," said Tom, "I'll lead the way, but be careful, you humans can't see the sights at night." So saying, he continued on his way.
Coming to the mouth of the canyon, just as Andrew and the others were about to continue walking. Tom knocked on the rock wall of the nearby canyon under the surprised gaze of everyone. Then one side of the valley wall cracked, and a door appeared.
"Please come in." Tom motioned to everyone, and then walked into the stone gate, and could faintly hear him shouting, "Wife, I'm back!" ”
As soon as everyone entered the door, they were greeted by a pair of huge hands: "Finally, I have looked forward to you!" ”
I saw a tiger with gold and glasses holding them, squinting his eyes and smiling and saying: "The rice is already cooked in the pot, and you will have strength when you are full!" ”
When the Tiger Lady let go of them and took a step back, Andrew and the others could see the scenery and people in the house by the light in the house.
Although it is a stone house, the interior of the house is surprisingly modern. TVs recessed into the walls, contemporary seats, corrugated metal floors, and ......
The ceiling was glowing with a faint and soft yellowish light, which was not dazzling, so it also allowed Andrew and the others to see Tom and his wife completely clearly.
Tom, who has the same gray-blue fur as he looks at in the moonlight, looks like a casual young man with white hair on his cheeks. The blue-green eyes are very intriguing. It is about one meter two or three high. It's about the same as the Haier brothers.
And his wife, a tiger, wore a classic kitchen apron and a pair of glasses that weakened the golden eyes in the back. smiled softly, revealing two small tiger teeth.
"Just call me Lily." Lily smiled and invited a few people, "Let's have dinner first." My Tom has been waiting for you outside for days. I'll talk about something after eating. ”
With that, he led a few people to the dinner table.
On the table are classic Western dishes.
Slice of bread, fried fish, large ham with onions on the side, and thinly boiled potatoes. In the middle of the table was a large lump of dark yellow cream and a couple of unopened beers.
"Actually, I'm a little hungry." Tony, who didn't eat much in the morning because he was nervous, had already growled in his stomach after a series of exercises. He sat down unceremoniously at the table, then his eyes scanned the dishes on the table, as if thinking about what he should eat.
Seeing Tony's unkind appearance, everyone also sat down. Start eating.
It's normal to talk while eating. Just that's what Pepper, who took a sip of hot soup with bread. Pepper, who had already put enough pressure on herself, asked about the matter here, of course. In fact, this time the situation was basically the same as the last time, and before my group could figure out what was going on, they were hard-pulled.
So Pepper looked at Tom and said solemnly, "Sir." Tell us, what happened to Mr. Tumnas? ”
Tom pushed the empty beer mug he had just clinked with Tony to the side and said, "Of course." ”
