Meat...

Bai Tao saw the dagger next to him.

The burlap bag next to the dagger, in which there were still two pieces of dried meat left, and some bark with tooth marks, and behind her was the stone wall.

It's a natural hole.

There were remnants of the hair of other animals, as well as some messy straw and dead branches, which should have been the place where the hunters had stayed.

The hole was narrow, and most of it was blocked with snowballs.

But this kind of cave door made of snow can't stop the fierce beasts in the mountains that are hungry and green-eyed and looking for food. Zhao Zheng protected her inside like this, which was a complete protective gesture.

Give her meat and protect her.

Bai Tao gently wrapped his waist around his waist with three tails, and even that joy was diluted when he looked hungry and sick.

The snow outside was still whimpering bitterly, but it was warm in his arms.

Bai Tao: "Zhao Zheng." ”

Still didn't answer.

She carefully wrenched herself from his arms, and saw that there was dried blood on his stomach and arms.

But there was no wound on his stomach or arm, and he touched his belly with his claws, which was hard, as if he was touching a piece of iron.

It should be that the bark is eaten too much.

The tip of the white peach's nose is sour and astringent, the big tears under the eyes are falling off and down, and the tears that slip down are like starlight in the night.

What a fool, she's a goblin, and it's hard for goblins to starve to death.

He is a human being, and people are so fragile that they should learn to survive, but he is good, and Baba ran to save the goblin.

Snorting, the white peach rubbed his cheek, which was the young beast's way of expressing affection.

But he didn't expect this rub, Zhao Zheng came to his senses, the moment he opened his eyes, there was a kind of darkness under his eyes because of the emaciation of his cheeks, like a knife light, which could pierce people's hearts.

Seeing that there was no danger, he relaxed: "Peach..."

Inside the dark cavern, mortals are invisible.

But Bai Tao still had an inexplicable mood, and immediately hid the exposed fox ears and three tails, "You... Did you see that? ”

"What do I see...?" Zhao Zheng coughed in a muffled voice.

Don't see it?

Bai Tao said: "See me, my... If I were..."Elf, would you still be willing to be friends with me?"

The last two words were rolled up by her little tongue and rolled back into her mouth.

"When did you wake up, ahem... I was in a coma for a few more days. ”

Zhao Zheng closed his eyes, and he really had no strength to speak.

When Bai Tao heard this, he knew that his fox skin had not fallen off.

Because no matter how bold a mortal is, he will be frightened to close his eyes and kick his legs when he sees the beast become a sperm.

How can you be so calm?

Bai Tao said: "I just woke up." ”

"It's okay." Zhao Zheng fumbled with her head.

Bai Tao felt that he was now like his soul was about to leave his body, and he was really sick and weak.

As soon as he finished thinking about this, Zhao Zheng coughed sullenly again, and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Bai Tao patted him on the back: "Zhao Zheng, don't be afraid, I'm here." ”

Zhao Zheng chuckled: "It's like learning." ”

He couldn't see, he could only look at a certain point in the void, but he could feel her temperature and imagine her movements.

Zhao Zheng curled his lips, maybe the moment was his luck.

But after that, I felt a heavy sense of sorrow and deep sorrow.

The snow covers the mountain, and the bad luck of death will finally befall them, and he just wants Bai Tao to get rid of it.

He held the little jerky left next to him, and fumbled into Bai Tao's mouth, "Peach... Staying here is nothing more than a dead end, you have to save your strength... Wait for the snow to stop before you can escape. ”

The jerky was frozen very hard.

Very chai.

When he goes outside to shave the bark of the tree, will he also feel that the bark is very hard and woody?

Tears welled up in Bai Tao's eyes, and he couldn't chew the jerky in his mouth. She stretched out her hand to cover his eyes, and choked up: "Zhao Zheng, you also have to conserve your strength, and you have to sleep well." ”

"Okay."

Zhao Zheng smiled lightly, which was relieved, he was passing on his upward emotions to her, "Tao Tao wants to escape, definitely." ”

"Okay."

He was lying on his side on the straw pile, his chin was too thin, and there were new scabs on his hands, and he probably had no strength to cut the bark to the back, and the dagger was unsteady and hurt himself.

Bai Tao's throat and eyes seemed to be blocked by something, and she felt a suppressed pain.

She waited slowly for his faint breathing to settle down.

Turning into a demon form, Bai Tao ran out of the hole, and on the snow that collided with the blizzard, there was a fire fox with three tails running hard, its brown and yellow fox eyes were wet, and it was still screaming freely: "Squeak-"

Brother said grow up.

What does it mean to grow up?

Bai Tao cut the hay outside the rabbit hole and took the rabbit to the nest.

I thought to myself: Is it my brother's departure, or is she sad now. Is that how you grow up? Then she didn't want to feel sad, and she didn't want to grow up.

She pinched the long ears of the two rabbits, looked at their uneasy and frightened looks, and saw that there were several small rabbits in the rabbit nest huddled next to each other, and they shivered when exposed to the cold air.

She returned one rabbit in her paws, slapped the other rabbit to death, picked it up, and walked away.

She was going to feed Zhao Zheng.

When asked, he said that the rabbit crashed into the hole and died, isn't there a saying that wait for the rabbit?

There is little to eat in the snow, and this nest of rabbit holes is hard to find.

Bai Tao was delayed for an hour, and then the blizzard stopped temporarily, and when she went back with the rabbit in her mouth, she bumped into the wolves dragging the dead corpses, the sharp teeth of the beast were like bright silver, and there were wet saliva dripping on them.

The scrawny skeletons show that winter is hard, but the bulging bellies prove that they have feasted on it.

There were seven or eight of them, and their shiny fur had become mottled, but they were still good food for hunters to survive the winter.

White Peach took a rabbit in her mouth and walked around them.

"Gollum—"

The wolf who cocked his tail stopped her and said in a wolf voice, "You have the smell of a living person, is it the human who is protected by the mountain ghosts?" ”

The mountain ghost is the mountain god who rules over all beasts.

Because he has not been officially canonized by the Emperor of Heaven, he is still called a mountain ghost.

Bai Tao's heart was all about Zhao Zheng, who was about to starve to death, how could he still want to talk to the wolf king, "I don't know." ”

"If you don't know, you don't know." The wolf king licked the blood at the corner of his mouth, "The mountain ghost will not come to our Snow Wolf Mountain for nothing, that human must have his superiority." ”

"What do you want?"

Bai Tao was vigilant, and she found that she was a little tough when she spoke, "If you dare to beat him, don't blame me for ripping off your fur." ”

"Don't dare to anger the mountain ghosts."

The wolf king has a kind of reverence, and he droops down his wolf ears, "We also want to be blessed by the mountain ghosts, and over the years humans have coveted our fur and killed us." ”

"So, we want to get some luck."

The wolf brothers around the wolf king took out the things they had scavenged from the group of corpses and offered them to Bai Tao.

"Fire breaks, wound medicine, bags of dry food, and some money that we hate."

The wolf king walked over the side of Bai Tao with a full load of wolf brothers, presenting a diagonal snow line.

Before leaving, the wolf king's pointed head turned around, stared at her, and said, "There is a path down the mountain next to your cave, and to the southeast is the mortal village, pray, the mountain ghosts will bless you." ”

“......”

Bai Tao stuffed the rabbit into a dry food bag, put other things in it, and walked away.

The mountain ghosts will not bless us.

Bai Tao thought to herself.

Brother said that he flew three fans like mountain ghosts.

Before Bai Tao returned to the cave, she turned into a human form, and tiptoed into the cave, blocking the snow rolling bar at the door again, leaving only some air holes.

The wind and snow are still raging outside.

Bai Tao was almost blocked, picked up the burlap bag, and Zhao Zheng's voice suddenly came from the blackened hole, "Tao Tao." ”

She had been sneaking out, but now she was startled.

The cloth bag in his hand trembled, and the silver coins inside made a sound of Lingling enamel crashing, which was infinitely harsh by the long wind, snow and dark night.

"What's the matter, ahem, is it the wolf from outside coming in?"

Zhao Zheng held the dagger and was about to get up while holding his body.

"No, there isn't."

Bai Tao shook his head, gathered the dead branches in the cave that was originally a hunter, pulled some straw, and lit it with a fire breaker.

The light of the fire instantly soaked through the ink-thick hole, and it shone on the dead rabbit that was clutching two rabbit ears in her hands.

Zhao Zheng's pupils shrank: "Taotao, you..."

Bai Tao lowered his head, used his dagger, and peeled off the rabbit's skin in his way, not daring to look into his eyes, "I just went out on a trip and found that a lot of people were dead outside, so I looted some of their things, as well as this stupid rabbit that bumped into me." ”

The girl probably wouldn't lie, her eyelashes fluttered, casting an arc on her eyelids.

The cheeks are even more adorable by the orange fire, like ghosts, or New Year's dolls painted by the gods themselves.

But in any case, such a fire shone on him and dispelled the cold from him. Zhao Zheng looked at her for a long time and retracted his gaze: "Tao Tao is really amazing." ”

"Oh."

The white peach was skewered with rabbit meat, turned it a few times, listened to the sound of bubbling oil, felt the gaze cast again, she also looked over, blinked and said, "Why are you always staring at me, is there something on my face?" ”

Zhao Zheng said softly: "It's good to be alive." ”

yes, it's nice to be alive.

Bai Tao was originally sealed by his brother, but now he is not only blessed by misfortune, he has broken away from the acupuncture points, but also has two more tails.

Originally, she didn't dare to speak too loudly for the group of wolves she had just encountered, but now that she has a long tail, she can threaten them.

From this, it can be seen that the demon level has become higher, and he speaks hard.

In the future, other demons will call her no longer "Alas, alas, that little vixen." Rather, "Alas, the three-tailed sister is good, the three-tailed sister is strong, and the three-tailed sister can shoot thirty with three tails,"

Bai Tao's heart bubbled when he thought about it, and the corners of his mouth grinned involuntarily.

Zhao Zheng ate some of the dry food she brought, but didn't dare to eat too much, seeing the girl smiling like honey at the firelight, coupled with the smell of scorched hare floating in the air.

He took his hand and said, "Just wait for you to eat, I'll do this kind of thing." ”

"Oh."

Bai Tao indulged in her thoughts and agreed, not daring to blink and react, Zhao Zheng's hand was still injured, how could he let him worry about these things, she vetoed: "No, you have to rest well, you can't move, it's just a roast rabbit, I can roast it." ”

“.... Good. ”

Bai Tao said it rightly, and Zhao Zheng didn't intervene, but just turned over the things she had looted, there were two fire folds, and some Qin half taels, which could last two days of dry food.

There are no tokens.

Now the fate of the remaining six dead men and his mother is unknown.

Fan Yuzhi, the general of the Qin State, is also very unlucky, and the chances of being able to count on it are very slim.

In the end, how can we take the white peach out of the predicament of the blizzard, survive the cold winter of lack of food, and finally trek back to the Qin country.

This is a looming issue.

Zhao Zheng found that he was not worried about the safety of his mother at this time, and all he was thinking about was white peaches.

It's too cold-blooded.

But he would rather go on in such cold blood, without hope, he would not be seriously injured, once upon a time he was also a child who sought comfort from his mother, like most ordinary children in Zhao Kingdom.

But every time he got in exchange for not warm words of comfort, but again and again like a plague god to drive away.

After a long time, I got used to it, and I didn't care too much about it like I got used to pain.
