It was late at night, pitch black, and the scenery was not visible. But the mountains were not quiet, and the beasts roared, shaking the mountains and rivers, and the trees trembled, and the chaos fell.

It is rumored that among the mountains and ravines, there are wild beasts rampant, ancient relics haunted, and all kinds of terrible sounds rise and fall in the darkness, as for the cracking of the world.

There is a small mountain village on the periphery of the mountain forest, there are only a few dozen families in the village, in the southeast corner of the mountain village, there is a dilapidated thatched house, in the thatched house, two figures one large and one small huddle together, in this dark night, rely on each other.

"Howl!"

Suddenly, a deep and proud howl rang out in the mountains and forests, followed by various wolf howls that rose and fell one after another, suppressing the wails of the other beasts.

"Brother, I'm afraid!"

In the darkness, a timid voice sounded, the owner of the voice was a little girl about four or five years old, after hearing the wolf howl, her young body was constantly trembling, curled up in the arms of another teenager, it seemed that it was the safest and warmest place in heaven and earth.

"Sister, don't be afraid, my brother will protect you!"

The boy was about eleven or twelve years old, he held his sister in his arms with one hand, but he was holding a shiny firewood knife tightly in the other, the green tendons on the back of his hand were exposed, and his two fierce eyes like a wolf were staring at the dilapidated door, obviously his heart was not as calm as it seemed.

Through the big hole in the door panel, the young man seemed to be able to see the mountains and forests not far away, and the pair of oily green eyes were staring greedily at the small mountain village where they were, staring greedily at the two brothers and sisters, ready to pounce on them and have a full meal.

"Well, I know, my brother is the best!"

This little girl called 囡 (nan) 囡 (nan) obviously did not notice the abnormality of the teenager, and showed a happy smile. Perhaps in the little girl's heart, her brother is the most powerful person in the world, and no matter what happens, he will protect her.

In the small mountain village that fell into darkness, a few fierce breaths rose and swept towards the wild wolves in the mountain forest, as if to warn them that this place is not easy to mess with, leave quickly, they are from the strong people in the village.

I don't know if this group of wild wolves is extremely hungry, or what's going on, in the face of the warning of the strong people in the village, they did not retreat as usual, but kept wandering at the entrance of the village, as if they were hesitating to attack.

"This wolf pack is a little unusual, go and take out the leg bones of the golden lion and see if you can scare them away."

"If we can't scare them away, the village will be in danger tonight!"

In the central square of the black stone village, an old man sighed in the dark, and behind him, there stood more than thirty strong men armed with steel knives and forks, they were members of the hunting team of this small mountain village, and they were also almost all the combat strength of the village. In addition to these 30 or so strong men, there are only some old and young women and children left in the whole village, and they can only be sent to death in the face of wolves.

The golden lion is not a beast, but a demon beast.

Of course, Blackstone Village does not have the strength to hunt demon beasts, and that leg bone is just an accident obtained by the ancestors when they hunted, and it is regarded as the foundation of the village and used to protect the village.

The leg bone of a demon beast, although it has no attack power, and it can't forge any powerful weapon treasures, but the leg bone contaminated with the breath of the demon beast can undoubtedly frighten ordinary beasts and prevent them from attacking the village.

Hearing the order of the village chief, someone soon returned to the stone house, took out a black wooden box, and carefully handed it into the hands of the old man.

The old man took the wooden box, took out a pale broken bone the size of a palm, carefully held it in his hand, and injected his true qi into it, and then an invisible coercion, centered on the beast bone, spread out.

"Roar!"

"Howl~"

Feeling the breath of the demon beast golden lion, the wolves were in a commotion, and they were a little panicked, if it weren't for the wolf king to suppress it in time, I am afraid that they would have dispersed in a hurry.

Everyone looked nervously at the wolves in the shadows, hoping that they would retreat and pray that they would survive the night safely.

"Howl~"

Maybe it was because of the appearance of the aura of the demon beast golden lion, or maybe it was because the shrewd wolf king felt that Black Stone Village was a difficult bone to gnaw, and in the end, this wolf pack slowly retreated.

"Whew!"

"Big Tiger, you take two people to stay on vigil tonight, and the others disperse!"

After a long time, seeing that the wolves really retreated, everyone in Blackstone Village couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and the old man, as the village chief, instructed the members of the hunting team with an indifferent face.

After everyone dispersed, the indifference on the old man's face disappeared, and he looked at the broken bones of the demon beast that had cracks in his hand, revealing a look of worry.

"Whew!"

Heavy relief, and the young man in the dilapidated thatched hut, he saw the wolves leave, he couldn't bear it anymore, the person suddenly sat down on the ground, the firewood knife in his hand, fell to the ground with a clang, and he no longer had the strength to pick it up.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?"

The boy's strange appearance was discovered by the little girl, his little face turned pale with fright, his eyes were full of tears, and his face was nervous, and he seemed to cry at any time.

"Nannan, it's okay, my brother was just too happy, so I accidentally knocked down the firewood knife!"

The young man saw his sister's anxious and worried appearance, his heart was very pitiful, he had recovered two points of strength at this moment, first picked up the little girl, kissed the two fiercely, the little girl kept giggling, and then picked up the firewood knife that fell on the ground, and hung the baby on the wall.

"Brother, why are you happy!"

The little girl asked curiously.

"Because my brother likes Nannan, I will be happy every time I see Nannan!"

The boy put his sister on the bed, carefully covered her with the only shabby bedding in the house, and said with doting eyes in his eyes.

"Giggles, I like my brother too, I like it very much, I like it very much!"

Nan Nan said happily, her eyes narrowed together, like two crooked crescents smiling.

"How much do you like it?"

When the boy heard his sister's words, he was extremely happy and couldn't help but quip.

"I like it very much, I just like it very much, it's just..."

"Wow, I don't know how much I like it, but I just like my brother very much!"

The little girl explained for a long time and didn't explain how much she liked it, and in the end she didn't know if she was too anxious or what was going on, so she cried out and cried at the boy.

"Ahh

"Don't cry, it's my brother who is not good, and my brother also likes it very much!"

Where did the boy expect the little girl to cry, and suddenly he was a little hurried, and he couldn't stop comforting, and it took a long time to coax his sister well.

"Brother, will you be with Nan Nan forever?"

"Of course!"

"Forever?"

"Forever!"

In the dark, two siblings, one older and one younger, snuggled up to each other and made a promise that they would not be separated from each other.

The witness of this promise is a palm-sized bronze mirror, lying quietly in the corner of the thatched house, and no one knows how it appeared.
