Chapter 0049: Wolf!
The sun is setting, with the last trace of afterglow reflecting the clouds in red, and the shadow of the pedestrians returning at dusk is pulled, as if to indicate that the night is coming.
Anna and Amy were on their way back to the camp, and the light in the woods had dimmed, but it didn't disturb their still some joy.
"Sister, what do you think of the Earl?" said little Anna, who was bouncing forward, suddenly turning her head and smiling sweetly, the tender white and light brown mushrooms tumbling mischievously in the straw basket, not knowing her fate of being cooked and eaten.
"Lord Earl?" Amy looked at her sister with a strange look, as if surprised by her sudden question, "Nana, why are you sudden..."
"Shhh
Without waiting for her sister to answer, Anna deliberately continued in a very firm tone, "But he is still here!
"So what?" Amy covered her mouth and snickered, her sister's serious expression made her laugh a little, and she couldn't help but laugh, "Are you in love with him?"
"Sister!" Anna's cheeks suddenly turned red like an apple, and she said angrily, "Yes and what! I just think the Earl is great! He is even willing to give his life to save me!"
"Oh, no!," Amy was obviously shocked by the reply, and she had to find a way to correct her sister's dangerous and immature thoughts from chivalric novels at once, "Lord Count has saved fifteen hundred people, and you are only one of them! besides, he is fifty years old, and what about you? twelve! Oh my God! Nana..."
"So what! age is never an obstacle to love!" Anna retorted without showing weakness, "Didn't the legendary hero Loras Tyrell marry Princess Margarita, who was twelve years younger than herself?"
"Please! that's just a novel!" Amy felt like she was going crazy, although the two of them might not be able to escape the fate of being possessed by the Earl, but before that happened, she didn't want her sister to have unrealistic fantasies, which could almost threaten her life, "You can tell the difference between fiction and reality, can you?Nana, I don't want you to get in touch with this too soon, but the Earl already has a wife, and we...?we're just insignificant maids..."
"Love is so precious, I know you'd love to taste it, but..."Amy added earnestly, "but it doesn't belong to us..."
"I don't care, I don't care!" proved to be the most difficult girl to deal with, and Anna retorted with some vexatious rebuttal, "I didn't say I had to marry him! We might as well know!"
"But, Mom and Dad said...", as if realizing that she had mentioned a taboo word, Amy hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand in a panic, and then realized that her sister had heard it, so she had to comfort her in a whisper: "I'm sorry, Nana, I mean..."
"Dad... Mother..."Those unfriendly memories flooded into her mind, and Anna's tone couldn't help but be low, and even her originally brisk steps slowed down a little, "Sister, did you say that their souls will enter heaven?"
"Heaven?" Amy looked at her with worried eyes, a little sad at the same time, but also secretly blamed herself for her mouth, "What is that place?"
"My sister in the dream said that it was a beautiful and beautiful place," Anna said with a longing look on her face, "and it is said that only those who believe in the Lord and those who are kind souls can enter and enjoy the happy time forever. ”
"I suppose that people as kind as Mom and Dad will be waiting for us there, right?" she looked at her sister expectantly, wanting to get a satisfactory answer.
"Heaven..."
Unlike Anna, who was chosen by God, despite her hard work, she did not meet the requirements of the trial. Sometimes Amy has to wonder, "Did I do something wrong?"
Ignorant of the Temple of Order, she didn't realize that the test was not only about the courage to give everything for the existence that she was willing to protect in her heart, but also that her actions that were too extreme could only be useless.
But what if you know?
Seeing his father die in front of him to protect his family, his mother was dragged and ravaged by the damned Misty Mountain People, and was unwilling to be humiliated and crashed to death on the edge of the bed, if he and his sister hadn't escaped hiding in the cellar, they might have died a long time ago!
"It's a pity that it was found out in the end!" Amy, who was lost in thought, had a slightly hideous expression, she really couldn't imagine that if the innocent Nana was ... How can you be indifferent?
So she made a decisive move, although the guy who tried to hurt her sister knelt on the ground and cried and begged for mercy, quibbling that she just wanted to steal a little property and rescue her seriously injured father, but she still cut off her head without hesitation.
"It feels good to have power!" thought Amy at the time, and now Amy has never changed, telling herself, "As long as I'm here, no one can hurt Nana!"
This seems to have become an obsession, different from the ancient family word of mouth, this is a maxim that only one person believes.
"Sister?" the immature child's voice sounded.
Amy noticed that her sister was looking at her worriedly, smiled apologetically at her, and was about to explain something, but her pupils suddenly constricted, and she grabbed Anna's little hand and pulled her behind her!
"Roar!"
The black shadow accompanied the strong wind, and its large mouth with fishy smell and saliva opened violently, and swooped down on the two of them from mid-air. The sharp claws hit the target, piercing her collarbone, causing Amy to let out a desperate wail, "Run!
"Sister!"
Anna was stunned by the suddenness of this suddenness, and she fell to the ground in fright, and the mushrooms in the basket were scattered all over the ground, rolling down to the bottom of a pair of pupils that still glowed in the dark forest.
It's a snow wolf!
This perennial breed of wolf that wreaks havoc in the North is not one of those well-behaved hounds that has been tamed and flattered, nor is it a character that can be kicked or stoned to get rid of. They rip off the arm of a worthy warrior and tear his throat to pieces, as simple as a cat killing a mouse.
What to do!
Snow was sipping blood hungrily, and in the blink of an eye it was already dark red, and her sister opened her mouth as if she was shouting something, but Anna couldn't hear clearly, and her thoughts collided so violently that she almost cried out in fear.
"Sister!"
Despair loomed over Anna.
The snow wolves around her were approaching with small steps, grinning and intimidating her, their green eyes full of human cunning.
"Catch her!"
The leading giant wolf spoke, almost as tall as a war horse, and Amy's smaller body was crushed to the ground, and its dagger-sharp claws pinned her to death, completely ignoring its desperate struggles.
"Who are you!"
Maybe it was the love of her sister that overcame the fear?At this moment, I don't know where I got the courage, Anna bit her lower lip tightly, and suddenly stood up, trembling and pointing at the giant wolf.
"Let go of my sister!"
She uttered this sentence in a hoarse voice, and suddenly collapsed to the ground like a deflated ball, as if she had exhausted all her strength.
"Me?" Anna said, noticing the wolf's wide mouth as if he was laughing at something, "I'm dancing with the wolf!"
The name flashed through her mind, and the count's heroic appearance like a god of war seemed to resurface, and Anna suddenly realized something, she looked at her sister's face full of pain and struggle, and remembered a conversation in a dream!
"As long as you never forget the love and justice in your heart, He will come when the crisis comes, help you to clear the obstacles in your way, and remember that the Light is with you!"
Nidaya!
Anna knelt down reverently, and the divine pattern on her forehead seemed to be about to light up in the next moment!
"Roar!"
Dancing with wolves obviously wouldn't make it easy for her, and with a roar of rage, Anna's petite body was violently knocked out by the wolves waiting for the opportunity around her, and she rolled several times on the snow before being forced to stop on the trunk of the tree.
"Nana!"
Amy let out a cry of despair, she stared at her sister's bruised, unconscious face, tears sliding down the bridge of her nose, "I'm going to kill you!"
She roared hoarsely, pushing her legs as hard as she could, as if even the sharp pain in her body was no longer there, and all she wanted was to tear these damn wolves to shreds and gouge out their intestines and brains!
"Don't worry, it's your turn!"
Dancing with the wolf, he grinned, raised his paws and tasted the taste of blood, and his hideous molars were about to bite down Amy's neck, but his eyes flashed with a cunning light as if he remembered something.
"Leave her behind, and let us prepare a little surprise for the Earl of Livingston?" thought Danced with the Wolves, and then pulled off the claws that pierced through the collarbone, and whined at the wolves beside him, and then jumped up, and walked away with Anna's clothes in his mouth, and the swift figure melted into the forest and disappeared without a trace, leaving only the seriously injured Amy lying on the snow and letting out an unwilling groan.
"Nana...!"
She stretched out her hand as hard as she could, trying to grasp something, but eventually hung limply, and darkness and tiredness hit together, causing Amy to close her eyes in agony.
"Whew~"
The snow wolves were sniffing their noses, and the sweetness of the blood in the air made them reluctant to leave for a long time, but they had to follow the will of the leader and give up this delicious meal.
