The Urban Legends of Monsters: The End of the World (1)

Nowhere to go

In early spring, the night wind is still bitterly cold. The hurried humans either wrapped themselves in thick winter clothes, or turned on the heaters of their vehicles. With a desolate meaning, the few green grasses that have just emerged on the riverside are shivering in the wind, as if regretting that he left the embrace of the earth too early and came to the outside world.

But the two monsters facing each other by the river didn't feel the cold and didn't care.

"You ate my son, I've been waiting for this chance for revenge for a long time." The monster standing there in human form said viciously.

"It was obviously eaten by the fire," a white nine-tailed fox cub stood opposite the monster who wanted to avenge his son, answering him in a sarcastic tone, "but you don't dare to provoke it at all, you have to Come and vent your anger at me."

"Who doesn't know that you have always been a fox and a tiger, and you lied to my son to give Bifang food!" The monster who lost his beloved son roared angrily.

"Giggle giggle." The nine-tailed fox laughed, "Who told your stupid son to want to eat me out of his control! I had to use him to treat a friend to a sumptuous lunch."

"Your amulet is not by your side today," the monster clenched his fists, "I will use you to sacrifice my poor son!" He shook his body, showing his true form - a hideous wild boar.

"Then it's time to see if you have such great ability!" The nine-tailed fox put on a look of contempt for the other party.

The nine-tailed fox family is famous. The nine-tailed fox knows that the other party has a lot of scruples in his heart, so the more he ignores the other party, the more the other party is afraid of himself, and dare not easily approach him. Do it yourself. And this is exactly what the little nine-tailed fox wanted. He knew very well that with his own strength, he was no match for the monster in front of him. The nine-tailed fox family is indeed powerful, but he was still a child first, and secondly, he was alone since he was a child, and he never had any elders to guide him. The test of the tough environment has led him to habitually use cleverness to make up for the lack of strength, so the most unfavorable situation for him is this face-to-face, one-on-one battle.

"Why isn't Huo'er here yet?" The little nine-tailed fox counted the time anxiously, and when he was being followed by this monster on his way from school, he had already released an imperial talisman to ask for help. The target of course is his good friend Huo'er. But half an hour has passed, and the fire has not yet appeared.

"Alas," he sighed, using a spell to call Huo'er may have too many variables, maybe it was eating, and by the way, it caught the ghost envoy he sent and ate it; maybe the ghost When it arrived while it was sleeping, it was burned to ashes because it woke it up and had no time to communicate; maybe it was busy playing a game, and the thing that scratched it would naturally be flattened by a wing and shot through the window. Throw it out in the middle... In short, there are too many possibilities like this, and the little nine-tailed fox sighed again, he still has to rely on himself.

The boar bent down, ready to strike.

The little nine-tailed fox chanted and prepared a defensive spell.

A gust of wind swept through, causing the humans on the riverbank to cover their faces and sprint with their collars erected.

The wild boar stood facing the wind, squinting because of the dust and the withered grass blown up by the strong wind. He thought that the nine-tailed fox would definitely take this opportunity to pounce, but the other party did not do so, but lowered it even more Focused on the defense with all his heart, his cautiousness put pressure on the wild boar at first, causing him to worry and even stage fright because he could not find out the flaws of the nine-tailed fox, but as the time between them confronted each other longer, The wild boar Yue had questions about the opponent's strength: If this nine-tailed fox is really that powerful? Or if he was as disdainful of himself as he appeared to be, and didn't take it seriously, then he shouldn't be acting as cautiously as he is now, compared to what a truly powerful monster should be. There was something about the behavior of the nine-tailed fox that made him suspicious. Even if his thinking was still bound by the deep-rooted notion that the nine-tailed fox family was very powerful, he had to start to imagine one thing: what the nine-tailed fox did in front of him was everything. Isn't it all bluffing?

"You won't know until you try it!" The wild boar made up his mind.

From the expression and posture of the opponent, the nine-tailed fox knew that he was about to attack. "I can only fight with him!" Now that his support for Huo'er will come in time, he has completely given up.

As soon as the wild boar came up, it made a series of fierce attacks. The nine-tailed fox jumped and jumped, and finally all of them escaped, and jumped to a place slightly away from the wild boar to catch a breath. The wild boar did not immediately start the next round of attack, because he was re-evaluating his opponent. "You're just a little boy! You're nothing but that tongue!" he roared.

"Come and have a try!" The nine-tailed fox roared in a low voice, of course he wouldn't let himself show timidity.

The wild boar was shocked by his attitude again, but immediately made a wise judgment - pounced on the nine-tailed fox viciously.

The two monsters were torn together.

The wild boar is superior to the nine-tailed fox in both force and magic. The nine-tailed fox relies on his agility and divine reaction to deal with the ferocious opponent. In any case, the nine-tailed fox is in the The weaker, in the struggle of strength and strength, his bright mind can give him less and less help.

One of the wild boar's spells hit the nine-tailed fox's right leg, but the nine-tailed fox's back grab also cut through the opponent's cheek. Blood flowed into the wild boar's eyes, blocking his vision, and the wound on the nine-tailed fox's leg also affected his movements. It's just that the blurred vision has little effect on the wild boar, which is already rampant in its offensive method, but the inconvenience of movement may become a fatal injury to the nine-tailed fox, which is flexible and self-defense. The two monsters knew this very well, so the wild boar accelerated its attack, while the nine-tailed fox began to look around, looking for an opportunity to escape.

"I won't let you escape!" The wild boar saw through the opponent's plan and said in a vicious voice: "I will use your fur and flesh to pay homage to my son."

"That will cost you your own life!" The nine-tailed fox did not show weakness at all verbally.

The wild boar was eager to taste the flesh and blood of the opponent, and the attack became more violent, and he dodged blindly from the nine-tailed iron. The drag committee meant that the other party was waiting for help. Who would the nine-tailed fox rescue? The boar couldn't think of anything but that terrifying Bifang. Procrastinating for too long is bound to be detrimental to himself, and now he is bent on winning.

After another close-quarters fight, the nine-tailed fox had a long **** opening on its abdomen, and he only ripped off some hair on the opponent's body. Now the battle has been clearly distinguished. .

"Suffer to death!" the wild boar roared, knocking the nine-tailed fox flying out.

The nine-tailed fox rolled on the ground a few times, barely standing up, but found that one of his hind legs was completely unresponsive, while his other hind leg was bleeding, and a burst of pain came. The attack he received just now was obviously fatal, he thought, but he was desperately trying to find a way to escape. As for surviving in a desperate situation, this little nine-tailed fox has an experience that does not match his age. He clearly knows that fear and panic cannot save his life at this time. He has to calm down, calm down... The nine-tailed fox's eyes are tight Staring at the approaching wild boar, trying to adjust his breathing, sweat flowed down his forehead disobediently, soaking his gorgeous fur...

"I can avenge you soon!" The wild boar prayed to his son in his heart, and opened his mouth to bite down on the nine-tailed fox. Under his cold fangs, the nine-tailed fox suddenly disappeared.

When the wild boar roared, the smell of carrion was almost sprayed on his face, but the nine-tailed fox still dared not move or even curl up. The spell he used was a fox specialization. There are some illusion spells that can be used by fox monsters (so there are legends about foxes), but the nine-tailed foxes are stronger and more effective when they use it, they can not only use this spell to create illusions, but also Make the illusions come true, make the illusions they create become real, and if they really disappear, they will disappear. Of course the range and duration a spell can reach varies with the caster's mana. The little nine-tailed fox has completely disappeared now - he is still lying there motionless, but to the outside world, there is nothing in the place where he is lying. Using sharp claws, weapons, and spells to strike down, only land and air can be hit.

"Only five minutes..." The little nine-tailed fox muttered to himself about the time of his spell, "Five minutes..."

The wild boar clearly knows that his enemy has not escaped, so he will not be foolish to look around and let them slip away from his hands. He just sniffs around and **** up his ears to listen to any bells and whistles.

"Three minutes..." The nine-tailed fox calculated the time again. He had also hoped that the wild boar would leave this place and hunt him around, but at the same time he also knew that it was almost impossible, so he was not very depressed when the wild boar did not come, and he was waiting for another opportunity.

"Two minutes..."

The boar didn't take a single step away from the place, but it began to turn its head and sniffed at another angle.

"One minute..." The little nine-tailed fox said silently as he moved to a more favorable angle.

"Ah!" The little nine-tailed fox suddenly jumped out and appeared in front of the wild boar. At the same time, another nine-tailed fox jumped out of the grass and ran towards the river, so the wild boar wisely chose the target that was eager to escape. , and ignored the one who was screaming and jumping in front of him. When he turned to catch up, he felt something jump on his back, and then his sharp teeth sank into his flesh.

——The little nine-tailed fox was not fooled by the eagerness to survive. He knew that if he was in a hurry to escape, the wild boar monster would definitely catch up—even if he was led in another direction by the phantom he made, when He felt that after it was a scam, he still had enough time to catch up with himself, who was now inconvenient. So he chose another method, biting viciously down the neck of the unsuspecting boar.

With a scream, a large hole was torn in the neck of the wild boar, a blood vessel was broken, and blood was continuously spurting out, causing his steps to stagger, but he still supported him forward. Go, because the nine-tailed fox who attacked him and was thrown by him fell to the ground ten paces away, struggling to stand up.

The wild boar approached step by step, but the nine-tailed fox was unable to get up and escape. They struggled with each other during this short period of suffocating each other to see if the wild boar could reach the nine-tailed fox and kill him first, or whether Fall down before that.

The little nine-tailed fox watched the opponent move forward one step at a time. He was shaking with every step, as if he would collapse immediately as the little nine-tailed fox hoped, but every step made him extremely Disappointed, the distance between the two opponents is getting closer and closer, and it also shows that death is getting closer to the little nine-tailed fox.

I have exhausted all my strength, and finally I still have bad luck? As the opponent got closer, the fear of the little nine-tailed fox gradually turned into an unwilling anger. His lack of strength was caused by fate, not his own fault. If he had always lived in the country of Qingqiu, if he had grown up like an ordinary nine-tailed fox...

Mom...

When the wild boar walked up to him, he wondered if his mother would be angry if he didn't come home for dinner...

One hand lifted the nine-tailed fox by its tail.

The target suddenly disappeared from the sight of the wild boar. He lost his mind a little, so he twisted his neck and searched around until a sharp claw stuck in his throat.

"It's an over-the-top guy." Although he stepped on the body of a wild boar, he said to the little nine-tailed fox he was holding in his hand, "I have to pick up an opponent stronger than you to fight. Is it! It almost became pig food!"

The little nine-tailed fox doesn't have to look up to know who the owner of this lazy, sinister voice is.

"It's a pity that the fur is full of holes, otherwise it would be just fine to make a scarf for my new girlfriend." He ran his hand over the scarred body of the little nine-tailed fox, some wounds healed immediately, others also knotted scab. The first action after the little nine-tailed fox was able to move freely was to bite his finger.

"Unthankful dead fox! Skinned you for a scarf!"

"Dead dog, who asked you to come to the rescue!"

"Still bite!"

"Wu (I) opened (caused) so (not) cold (led) one (you) country (of) green (love) (yet)!" He bit the other's finger in his mouth, vaguely sound.

"Bang!" The sound of hitting flesh with fists.

"Dead dog!"

"Dead Fox!"

Ping ping pong pong...

"I rushed out as soon as I received your rescue, and I didn't even finish the meal!" Huo'er said, pointing to the oil stain on his mouth that had not been wiped clean. Its intention was obviously not to apologise for being late, as it had been staring at the dead boar out of the corner of its eyes.

"I killed that." Liu Di reminded it.

"It's me!" Lin Rui screamed, "He was dying when you came."

"If I'm one step late, it won't be him but you who will cook the food tonight." Liu Di said in a long voice.

Zhou Ying looked at the corpse of the wild boar on the ground, and then looked at Liu Di, who looked like a happy man, and said inexplicably: "I really didn't expect Liu Di to find you one step earlier than Huo'er—I see you. When he got your spell, he was the first to rush out the door."

Lin Rui looked at Liu Di with extreme disbelief.

Liu Di pouted: "I'm more familiar with this city than Huo'er." Seeing everyone's eyes on him, he added a little embarrassedly, "I've always wanted a wool scarf, I don't want it into the hands of others."

"Do it with your own skin!" Lin Rui pounced on him and took a bite.

But everyone understands that Liu Di's words are always true, and he will never be interested in a fox fur scarf. Especially Zhou Ying knew better that Liu Di cared about this little nine-tailed fox. When the little nine-tailed fox first appeared in the city, when he was facing the enemy, when he was on the verge of death, Liu Di showed his usual concern - although he tried his best to use frivolous words. He pretended that the matter had nothing to do with him, but Zhou Ying knew the change in his attitude - Liu Di's powerful strength and his personality like to mix things have been subtly maintaining the relationship between demons and demons in this city. , and even the balance between demons and people, he himself is very clear about this, so Lin Rui's one-sided favoritism should not be something he would do, and Zhou Ying couldn't convince himself that it was all out of sympathy.

Liu Di winked at Zhou Ying's questioning gaze, Zhou Ying understood this expression as "I will tell you everything, but not right away." So Zhou Ying was satisfied, he just wondered if Liu Di was there He was particularly concerned about Lin Rui and had doubts. As for why Liu Di was particularly concerned about Lin Rui, it depended on whether Liu Di was willing to say it or not. He didn't want to pursue it at all.

"Going home!" Huo'er shouted as he picked up the body of the wild boar, "We have a delicious dinner tonight!"

Lin Rui wanted to keep up with it, but his feet were soft, but he almost knelt on the ground. Liu Di healed his trauma, but could not completely eliminate the physical and psychological damage he suffered. He slapped the ground with his hand, pouted, and wanted to greet Huo'er to come back and carry him away.

"Come on." Liu Di picked him up and put it on his shoulder, "If you don't get a fox fur scarf, just use a live fur to do it. It's so cold today." Lin Rui put it on his shoulder Grabbing and biting his head randomly, brushing his nine tails around his face, Liu Di flicked his teeth with his hands and broke his teeth again, and they walked back like that.

Zhou Ying kept walking at the end, frowning thoughtfully as he watched them, until Huo'er called out from the front: "Ying, hurry up, if you go back late and delay dinner, Gui'er will beat us with a pot. !" - Rose is the absolute authority in the kitchen and at mealtimes, and even Huo'er doesn't dare to oppose her.

Zhou Ying quickened his pace and followed.

On the table is the steaming, hand-cooked "pig" meat, and Huo'er repeatedly emphasizes that this is its prey-in order not to let others try to share it with it, but the people who may compete with it are not Didn't show up at the dinner table: Lin Rui went home pretending to be a good boy who went home from school on time, and Liu Di didn't see anyone at all.

"Where's Liu Di?" After Gui'er took out the bowls and chopsticks specially designed for the earth wolf, he realized that he was no longer puzzled and asked, "I saw him dangling before eating, how could he forget to eat? "

"It's better without him." Huo'er said with his mouth full, "come all day for free food."

"But..." Gui'er was about to say something when she looked up and saw that there was another person missing at the table, "Zhou Ying, where is Zhou Ying?"

Gui'er jumped up, it didn't matter whether Liu Di was there or not, Zhou Yinglin "eat" and fled, but she pouted.

"It's good to go!" Huo'er said cheerfully, "I like to have my own table!"

"Bang!" A big pot was thrown in front of it, "Then you'd better eat them all!" Rose said angrily, pouting and sitting on the sand, but after a while, she felt He shouldn't be angry with the innocent, so he poured a glass of water for him, who was gobbling proudly, and said to himself, "Where did Zhou Ying go?"

Liu Di was sitting on the roof with his legs hanging outside the railings and a cigarette in his hand. In the darkness and smoke, his outline appeared hazy.

Zhou Ying had been standing behind him for a while.

Liu Di reached out and patted the railing beside him.

Zhou Ying jumped up and nimbly sat up.

Liu Di contradicted his usual rapping habit and said nothing, smoking cigarettes one by one. Whenever he dropped the cigarette **** in his hand and took out another cigarette, Zhou Ying would help him light it . They sat there side by side, letting time pass, Liu Di's thoughts drifted somewhere, and for Zhou Ying, "speaking" was originally an act that Liu Di was responsible for.

Dawn appeared outside the distant clouds, and Liu Di's figure became slightly clearer. He squeezed out the cigarette in his hand with his fingers and threw the cigarette **** down.

"Do you know Lin Rui's hometown?"

"The Land of Green Hills."

"The country of Qingqiu..." Liu Di repeated gently, "The country of Qingqiu is not only the hometown of the nine-tailed fox, but also my hometown."

Zhou Ying almost fell off the railing.

Liu Di has said too many incredible words to count, but there is no sentence that surprised Zhou Ying more than this sentence.

Yes, of course Liu Di has a hometown, but Zhou Ying always thought that it must be somewhere in the human world, and he thinks it is this city, the land where Liu Di has lived for hundreds of years. But what Liu Di spit out was the name of the distant and ethereal otherworld, "The Land of Qingqiu". Why did Liu Di leave the place that was more suitable for monsters to live in and come all the way to the human world? Is he the same as Lin Rui...

"The country of Qingqiu..." Liu Di closed his eyes, "The hometown I will never go back to..."

One, a young boy

The land of green hills is rich in products, and the four seasons are like spring. Not only the people of God, but also all kinds of monster races thrive and live there. Under the rolling hills, there is a land like a silent night. Among them, the family of earth wolves lived.

In the earth that other races seem to be thick, the people of these earths come and go freely, they build their own homes, and open passages that only they can walk (earth wolves can pass through the earth and stone, come and go in the earth originally There is no need for passages, but they follow the etiquette more, walk on the "passages" and avoid each "family" to show respect for the clansmen), and open up caves to live in for hundreds or even thousands of years. In the time of , this underground town that only belonged to the earth wolf clan unfolded like this.

Several earth wolf teenagers ran along the narrow passage marked with metal minerals. The footsteps of "pa-da" and "pa-da" and loud laughter echoed in the passage, breaking the silence of the entire earth wolf town . The children of the earth wolf clan have always been spoiled and grown up, and the adult earth wolf they met on the road not only did not blame them, but turned sideways to clear the way and watched them pass with a smile.

In this race, only the young children can run wildly in the ground, even into the inner room of others - they will be loved and entertained in any family, which is It further contributed to their little willfulness. Now the group of teenagers jumped out of the passage and entered a family through the mud.

The layout of the house is no different from that of a human family, except that the tables, chairs, and utensils are all made of stone-like metal. Wood is a precious material in the underground, but precious gemstones and other minerals on the ground are cleverly angled Inlaid everywhere, used to reflect the light, so that the room is very bright. Although the eyes of the wolves can see in the dark, they do not like to place their city in darkness.

"Aunt Geng, here we come!"

"Are you staying at home?"

"Wow, it's delicious! What delicious food did Aunt Geng make!"

As soon as the Wolf Boys entered the house, they started shouting.

A wolf woman in human form came out from behind with a tray in her hand, put the dessert on the tray on the table with a smile, and said, "I'm guessing that you will come to Liu Ge'er today. What—he went to his grandfather's place and won't be back until the afternoon. Come, let's try Aunt Geng's craftsmanship."

Before she could tell, the group of teenagers had already rushed towards the dim sum, and some of them even turned into "dogs" in order to grab more, and devoured them. Geng Niang smiled and looked at her son's friends. them.

"It's good luck to stay brother, so he doesn't have to go to Mr. Su Xin's class." A teenager said while eating.

"You think Liu Ge'er is you." Another teenager immediately retorted him, "He won't be afraid of Teacher Su Xin's strictness. He said that he likes Teacher Su Xin's class the most."

"Liu Ge'er is a genius, how can I compare to him!" The former teenager said of course, "Aunt Geng, are you right?"

Geng Niang smiled softly and said, "Liu Ge'er is not a genius. He is just like all of you, but he is better at learning spells. He can't do anything else. If you want him to do it. When I do housework and so on, I can be as considerate of my parents as cake, and I feel comforted as a mother." She stroked the wolf boy who claimed to be "can't compare with Liu Ge'er".

Gu'er laughed "hehe".

The teenagers were full of food and drink, wiped their mouths and rushed out like a gust of wind, "Aunt Geng, let's go!" "Aunt Geng, goodbye!" "Tell Brother Liu, come back and let's go hunting!"" We're going to class, Aunt Geng!" The loud announcement and the noisy footsteps went further and further away.

When all these voices were gone, Gengniang leaned against the table and sighed softly.

All the clansmen, elders, children or patriarchs, all of them recognize Liu Ge as a genius and the future hope of the earth wolf clan. Everyone loves him, respects him, teaches him carefully, and exhorts him from afar with anticipation. Geng Niang doesn't want her son to wear the halo of "genius" on his head, and she doesn't want to see him being pushed by the hands of the whole family, step by step toward the future. The future that scares her. Whenever she thinks that Brother Liu will stand at the forefront of the family to fight in the future, Gengniang's heart will tighten tightly. She prayed incessantly for countless nights, hoping that her son will become ordinary and no longer have those outstanding people. I also hope that time can stop, so that my son will not grow up, so that I will not lose him, and I will not let fate take away my treasure...

"Mother!" A head hangs down from the ceiling and appears in front of Geng Niang. He always likes such little tricks and takes pleasure in making fun of his parents. Then the whole body of the boy appeared, he turned over gently, and landed firmly in front of his mother.

This is an earth wolf boy of about 30 years old (equivalent to a human being 14 years old), his fur has a distinctive dark black (general earth wolf fur is mainly gray, yellow and brown), Gorgeous and thick, like wearing a bright gemstone cloak on his body, he is not old enough to learn the magic of transforming into a human, so now he can only appear in front of everyone in the form of a black dog and a human-shaped earth wolf. It's just that this young man is so handsome, even if he appears in front of humans like this, humans will probably ignore his long, sharp claws, fangs, red eyes and furry ears, and admire his handsomeness and vitality. He was the brother Liu who was hailed as a genius once in a thousand years by the entire earth wolf clan.

The moment he appeared, Geng Niang had already restrained her sadness, smiled and picked up the large and small bags in his hand, and asked, "How is grandpa? Why didn't you stay for dinner and come back?"

"But grandma is so wordy..." Brother Liu said in a long voice, "She's complaining that you don't go back to see her again, and she's clamoring to help me get engaged... Mother, you are free Are you going back to my parents' house too, so that my grandmother will always treat me as a nagging object."

"There are so many complaints when you go to see grandpa and grandma." Gengniang said angrily, "Thank you grandma for being so precious to you."

"But I'm also afraid of her being wordy..." Brother Liu fell on the chair and acted coquettishly, "Mother, if you nod your head and agree with my grandmother to help me get married, I may run away from home."

"You're still young, it's too early to talk about this." Geng Niang was still standing by her son's side when she spoke, but she continued without waiting for Brother Liu to smile, "But who is really so good Miss, it's a pity to miss it, has your grandmother mentioned to you whose child she is interested in?"

"..." Brother Liu felt that his future only had to run away from home.

"The cake made by my grandmother, the toys carved by my grandfather, the gopher skin given by my uncle, the medicine my second uncle gave me, the clothes made by my second aunt..." Brother Liu began to turn out the large and small bags. But at the moment when his mother turned around, he stuffed a gift he couldn't pronounce with his mouth into his pocket--a small bottle of wine from his second aunt, who was good at brewing. The real spirits, Brother Liu likes this kind of drink, but Gengniang insists that he can only drink sweet rice wine before he reaches adulthood (50 years old, which is equivalent to 16 human years), so he can only use this way "Intercept" grandfather's family brought his father a gift.

"By the way, mother, I met Zhigui and Zhike on my way back."

"Oh." Geng Niang suddenly turned around, "You met them."

"I took the initiative to say hello to them. Although they ignored me, I was very polite." Brother Liu emphasized, but he did all this not because he had any good feelings for the two clansmen he said. , just to make my mother happy.

“They are your cousins, you should be polite to them, how can you criticize them not.” Gengniang said.

Did not get the expected praise, but was admonished a few words, Liu Ge pouted: "But our family has never had any dealings with their family, and no one will appreciate it no matter how polite they are."

"It's their business that they don't appreciate it. We can't be rude, you know? Also, I know that the children in the school often bully them. You haven't mixed it, have you?"

"Of course not!" Brother Liu exclaimed, "If I hadn't been protecting them everywhere, they would have been bullied miserably! It's over..." He covered his mouth and blinked at his mother, knowing that he had missed the point. , Expose the disputes in the school to the elders.

"My father and I were young too, you think we haven't done these things." Geng Niang said to her son.

"Really!" Brother Liu's eyes widened immediately, "Have mother and father bullied classmates? Who? How?"

Geng Niang glared at him and said, "Don't take that kind of thing as a great show off. Zhigui and Zhike are your blood relatives anyway. You are not allowed to bully them, you know? Take care of them in the school. point."

"Yes..." Brother Liu respectfully agreed. He looked up at the hourglass and shouted, "It's broken, I'm late, Mr. Su Xin will peel me! Mother! I'm leaving!" He grabbed a snack in one hand, walked out through the wall, and ran towards the school. go.

"I asked your father to help you take a leave of absence..." Before Geng Niang could finish speaking, Brother Liu had already run away. She looked at the direction of her son's departure and fell into deep thought again...

"The cake."

"Here it is, sir."

"Do."

"Here it is, sir."

"To."

"Yes, sir."

A middle-aged man with his hands behind his back, half-closed his eyes, paced and called out in front of a group of boys and girls. "Zhang San..." "Li Si..." "Wang Wu..." "Jjijiquaquan..." He said slowly, but the students all held their breaths, not daring to take a breath. This earth wolf named Su Xin is a teacher in the family. He has been teaching for hundreds of years. Many of these children's parents are also his students. This gentleman is stern and ruthless when he reprimands others. One of the few grown-up wolves that these pampered children fear.

"Bah da." A student did not hold the inkstone in his hand tightly and dropped them on the ground. In this silent room, this voice attracted Su Xin's glares. He opened his eyes and walked towards the student, "You can't even hold the Four Treasures of the Study, what a great weapon!" His voice was not very loud. , but severely made the young man tremble.

"Pick it up!"

The teenager squatted down to pick up the stationery, but couldn't stop the shaking of his arms.

Su Xin kept staring at him, ready to reprimand him after he stood up.

"Arrived!" A loud voice came in, and then a figure jumped down from the house and stood beside Su Xin and said loudly, "Brother Liu is here! Brother Liu is not late!"

"Brother Liu..." Su Xin turned her head to look at the student who broke the silence in the room, but showed a rare smile, "Why are you back?"

"Huh!" Brother Liu put his hands on his knees and exhaled, raised his face with a smile and said, "How could I delay Mr.'s class! I want to show you the spell you taught last time! "

"You really are a child," Su Xin's serious expression was replaced by caring, "It's a good thing to work hard, but don't delay enjoying family happiness with your family. Honoring the elderly is also something you need to learn."

"Yes, sir." Brother Liu agreed loudly.

——Other students dare not even think about this kind of dialogue. Only Brother Liu is qualified to make this teacher look at him differently. But no one would be jealous of keeping brother because of this, because everyone likes this friend just like the teacher.

Brother Liu's appearance eased the atmosphere of the class, and even the cold face of Su Xin, who started teaching again, also increased a lot. When Su Xin turned to talk to the students on the other side, Brother Liu tried his best to make gestures to attract the attention of several of his friends, and he slightly showed the wine bottle from his pocket to show them.

My friends' eyes widened immediately, and their faces couldn't hide their excitement.

Brother Liu pointed to the door and made another "drink" action.

Friends nod their heads fully in understanding.

"Cough!" Su Xin turned around and coughed. Although he didn't see the little movements behind his back, the joy on the young man's face, which had no time to disperse, told him that these students were playing tricks: "I, Tell me, there are several kinds of changes in exchange." His gaze fell on one of the teenagers.

"Sir, me!" Brother Liu hurriedly raised his hand, "Let me demonstrate the spell you taught last time? I can't wait!"

"What?" Su Xin's eyes flashed, "You have already learned that spell!"

"Yes, yes!" Brother Liu nodded vigorously and looked at the teacher with anticipation. He opened his mouth not only to help his friends out of trouble, but also really eager to practice the learned spells in front of the teacher so that he could get some pointers.

"I've been practicing this spell for at least three months..." Su Xin muttered to herself, looking at the boy who had only practiced for seven or eight days, "This kid is really a genius, my family is fortunate, My family is fortunate!" He repeated to himself, and the picture in his mind about Liu Ge's high-spirited attitude when he grew up made him feel our blood is surging.

"Come on, let me see it!"

"Yes!" Brother Liu agreed, walked to the middle of the room, spread out his hands, recited the incantation, and the light and shadow began to rotate, forming in his palm...

"Cheers!"

A few teenagers, led by Brother Liu, hid away from their elders after school, raised their glasses together, drank strong wine, and each and everyone felt that they were really manly. As soon as their book is empty, Brother Liu will pour it for them. The small bottle that looks inconspicuous in his hand actually contains more than a large jar of wine.

The teenagers chatted nonsense while drinking, and the topic turned to the wine supplier - Brother Liu.

"Cheers for Brother Liu!" The boys raised their cups again.

"Why are you doing it again?"

"Because you brought alcohol."

"This reason was done just now."

"Then it's because you're a genius." Gu'er said as a matter of course, and in his opinion this was something worth toasting to.

"The glory of our family!" said a teenager who is distant relatives of Liu brother.

"You will be the most amazing wolf!"

"Even the teacher knows you're amazing."

The teenagers are in agreement, Liu Ge is not only the pride of the whole family, but also their proud friend.

The more they talked, the more Liu Ge's mouth twitched, and finally he put the cup on top and announced, "I'm angry! You're isolating me! You don't treat me as a friend!"

"How could it be!" the teenagers shouted, assuring him that everyone considered him a good friend and that they were proud to be his friend.

"Then why are you, like Mr. and the others, who are talented and short."

"You are a genius."

"Even Mr. used to practice spells for three months, but you only need seven or eight days."

"You learn things faster than anyone else."

“…”

The teenagers are talking all over again, trying to convince Brother Liu that he is indeed a genius.

"I study hard because I like spells, not to make people call me a genius, and I work so hard, you can sum it up in one sentence, don't you think it's unfair to me! My own efforts are not enough Have you become a foil for geniuses?" Brother Liu said so, grabbing the bottle, "I drink by myself and ignore you."

"Wow..." the teenagers shouted and pulled him, "You leave the bottle and go."

"I only think about the bottle and don't think of me as a friend." Brother Liu covered his face with one hand and waved with the other, "Break out, you guys."

"Okay!" A boy knocked his eyes on his head, "Hurry up and drink it, if you go back too late to be found out, you will be in big trouble."

Brother Liu's hand covering his face was pulled down, revealing a snickering face.

"Don't call me a genius!" Brother Liu pointed at everyone and started pouring wine for everyone.

"Okay, everyone will call him an idiot from now on." Ku'er's announcement was approved by everyone, Brother Liu rushed over to bite him, and a group of teenagers slapped and started their banquet again.

Two figures appeared from the passage on the other side. They obviously did not expect to meet Brother Liu and the others in this remote corner. They were stunned for a while, but then turned around and wanted to leave.

"Zhiguizhike." Brother Liu stood up and called. For him, of course it would be better to let them go away, and it would not disturb everyone's banquet, but he remembered his mother's words, so he invited him with a smile. : "Would you like to have a drink with everyone?"

Zhigui and Zhike looked at him quietly, then tried to walk away without saying anything. In their eyes, Brother Liu once again saw something other than indifference - hatred? He frowned, wondering when he had offended the cousins. Maybe it's my fault, right?

But the friends around him immediately proved that he was right, because they had already shouted at the pair of brothers: "Hey, what do you mean! Let the brother talk to you well, and you put on that Who do you show your face to?" Brother Liu's friends stood up and challenged Zhi and Zhike with the strength of the wine.

"Don't, don't, they are my cousins, I'll be scolded by my parents when they make trouble." Brother Liu was busy stopping everyone, he didn't want to be scolded because these two people went back. When he stopped everyone, Zhi and Zhike turned around and left.

"Too annoying! Shame on your face!"

Everyone blamed the two brothers for this. Brother Liu didn't speak, and he didn't like the two cousins ​​who were yin and yang. All the courtesy and humility were just for the mother's usual care. So when Gao Er said, "I knew they were so rude, we should have punched them more last time." Brother Liu just turned his head and asked, "The last time they went to school with bandages, it was you who did it. ?" "Me, and a few of them."

"Whoever told them to always look like that, they get angry when they see it."

These teenagers are not guilty of that at all.

Brother Liu shook his head, he himself thought that the two brothers deserved to be beaten, but his mother's instructions were still valid at the critical moment, "Anyway, don't make it hard for them in the future, my mother is always sad to know that they are bullied-- After all, they are also my uncle's sons."

"But you can just watch them look like that? What the heck, they dare to count on you all day long!" Gu'er was very angry about this.

"Have you ever passed me?" Brother Liu had a feeling of laughing.

"Didn't you see them carrying spell books? They often find places where no one is there to practice, and they are determined to beat you!"

"Speaking of which, their grades in the academy have always been good." Brother Liu pondered, he really hadn't paid attention to these things about them before.

"They take you as their target!" Yu said angrily, he just couldn't bear this - he dared to treat Brother Liu as an opponent, and he always practiced secretly, which was too much for everyone to see.

Brother Liu pouted. Although he doesn't claim to be a "genius", he doesn't think anyone can beat him.

"So, Brother Liu, next time you have a chance to teach them a lesson, let them know who is the best." Shen Zhu teased Brother Liu, and the other teenagers all started booing. " That is, that is, let my brother teach them a lesson."

Brother Liu slapped Shen Zhu's head fiercely: "Blind idea! You want me to be skinned by my father!"

"Speaking of which, Uncle Jingshi and Aunt Geng are very protective of the pair of brothers..." Shen Zhu sat down in disappointment and mumbled, "I heard that Uncle Jingshi taught them kung fu personally when he was free—Lian Liu Brother Jingshi didn't even get a single instruction from Uncle Jingshi."

"Dad said that I am still young, so I should concentrate on learning magic, so as not to chew too much, he will teach me in a few years when I grow up, and they are my father's nephew, nephew and What's wrong with the children? They are all their own flesh and blood. Their father died early, and my parents should take care of them." Brother Liu, who was the number one martial arts master in the whole family, refused to give him a private The guidance is actually very unhappy, but for the partners, they still bring out these high-sounding reasons.

"You're young? But you're much better than them! Uncle Jingshi is too partial to teach them not to teach you." Gao'er said what Brother Liu's heart was saying.

"Besides, what are they doing waiting for so long? If there is a father, there will be a son. I don't know what idea I have in my heart. Maybe it will end up raising tigers!" Yu said disgustingly, and the teenagers agreed.

Brother Liu looked at them and blinked in confusion.

"It would be unfair to teach them a skill and then be bitten by them. My father often said that these two brothers were withdrawn from childhood, and they were not allowed to be the same as their father. The patriarch and the Uncle Jingshi is too lenient with them." A child threw the cup in his hand to the ground and stomped heavily.

"Hmph, I'll keep an eye on them, and I won't let them do anything that's bad for Liu Ge'er and our clan!" Yu said with gritted teeth and clenched fists.

"Yes, be careful with them."

"I'll be watching them too!"

Brother Liu became more and more confused, and said without knowing: "They are a little weird and difficult, but they are not criminals. You don't have to do this, right?"

"They're not prisoners, but their father..." When Gu'er said this, Shen Zhu tugged at the corner of her clothes. In any case, the person they were going to talk about was Brother Liu's uncle, and Shen Zhu was afraid of being outspoken. Cake said something outrageous.

Brother Liu didn't pay attention to this, and followed his own train of thought and said, "Speaking of which, my uncle died early, and my aunt remarried. They have no father or mother, so it's understandable for them to be weird, right? I would like to ask everyone, for my sake, not to make it difficult for them in the future?"

After listening to Brother Liu's words, several teenagers looked at each other and said nothing.

"I know they're not likable--I don't like them either, but if they don't exist, it's not difficult to meet and nod, right?" Brother Liu misunderstood what everyone meant, and added Such a sentence.

"Brother Liu..." Shen Zhu said cautiously, "Don't you know..."

"What?" Brother Liu's eyes widened.

"You... about your uncle..."

"My uncle? What's the matter?"

Shen Zhu looked at everyone and wanted to ask for help, but because he started the topic, everyone waited for him to talk. Shen Zhu licked her lips, not knowing how to tell Brother Liu.

"What's the matter? Half the talk!" Brother Liu did not realize the seriousness of the matter and asked seriously.

"Brother Liu, how did your uncle die... do you know how?"

"He died of illness. He was only three hundred years old when he died. When he died young, my father would cry when he talked about it." Brother Liu himself had no brothers, but whenever he heard his father talk about the uncle, he would always be able to learn from it. I heard the deep brotherly love between the lines. He sighed, why didn't Mother give birth to a few brothers! Every family in the earth wolf clan has more than two or even a dozen children. As an only child, Brother Liu often feels lonely. In fact, my parents are still young. I don't know if it's too late to urge them to have more siblings? Brother Liu thought wildly.

"Brother Liu, your uncle, he didn't die of illness." Shen poured his words, "He is the quilt, the uncle Jingshi..." He didn't know what to say.

"My father?" Brother Liu frowned, "What do you mean! What does the death of my uncle have to do with my father!?"

"I was killed by Uncle Jingshi, Uncle Jingshi..." Shen Zhu's voice was as thin as the chirping of a mosquito, saying the last words, "...killed..."

"Nonsense!" Brother Liu jumped up, pressed Shen Zhu to his body, and punched him, "How dare you say that to my father! Let's see how I teach you!"

Everyone hurriedly went up and pulled them away, while Shen Zhu parried Brother Liu's rainy fists, he struggled and said, "Brother Liu, listen to me, it wasn't Uncle Jing Shi's fault! He did it for us. The clan got rid of a traitor! Brother Liu, your uncle Ruoshi is a traitor..." He finally escaped from Brother Liu's hands, hid in Gao'er's hands and looked at Brother Liu who was stunned, and said embarrassingly: " Uncle Jing Shi was a righteous man who killed his relatives and was a hero admired by the whole family."

Brother Liu stayed there with his hands open in disbelief, his eyes ranged from Shenzhu to Gaoer, to Yu, to Wangsi... He swept across the faces of his friends, and said with trembling lips: "Really... …”

No one spoke, but the expressions on their faces confirmed that Shen Zhu's words were true.

"I don't know anything about such a thing in my family..." Brother Liu murmured, "My uncle turned out to be... yes... my father... my father killed his own brother. ..."

"Brother Liu, I think there is a reason why Uncle Jingshi and Aunt Geng didn't tell you about it. After all, after all..."

"It's not a glorious thing after all." Brother Liu finished on his behalf. He took a deep breath, sat down, and said as calmly as possible: "Okay, I've calmed down, you can tell me the truth, you can't keep me in the dark."

Everyone, you pushed me and I pushed you, and finally pushed Shen Zhu to the front and asked him to explain.

"Your uncle Wakaishi is very skilled in magic, and he was regarded as the hope of our clan like Uncle Jingshi, who was highly skilled in martial arts. (Brother Liu nodded, he knew all this) But Wakaishi was very temperamental since he was a child. He is withdrawn and eccentric, and doesn't get along with everyone. I heard from my father that he especially likes to go to the ground, and sometimes he doesn't come back for more than half a year. (Brother Liu and other teenagers frowned. For the earth wolf, The dirt is the most comfortable home, and they also go to the ground, but it is a very scary thing for them to live there. Brother Liu was once brought to the ground by his father, and that time he was exposed to the sun. He still remembers the burning furry memory, and hopes that there will never be a next time.) ... Wakaishi is such a weird guy, originally this is his own habit, and no one can say anything else, but later ," Shen Zhu looked at Brother Liu, "later the clansmen found that he was in secret and harmless."

"No injury!" Brother Liu jumped up. His face turned pale. Although the other teenagers knew about the past, when Shen Zhu mentioned "no injury", they all looked solemn, gritted their teeth, and breathed quickly. A low growl came from the depths of his throat.

Wu Sang, also known as Ju, looks very similar to humans, and is a monster that lives in the land just like the earth wolf.

There are many kinds of monsters living in the earth, such as wolves, evil, benyang, Wushang, etc. These monsters have different shapes and the same spirit, no matter their living habits and abilities, they are very similar. Logically speaking, Such races should live in harmony, but the fact is just the opposite. As long as such races live close to each other, no two races can coexist peacefully.

Whether the wolves or the harmless, the evil or the beast, they are all literate and educated races, they can get along with other races, monsters, gods or whatever, and they can live in Their place of residence is well-received, but they are perpetually opposed to each other. Maybe it's because they are too close to each other and know each other too well, so they can't bear each other. He uses disputes, hatred, and killing stabs to solve each other's frictions. This state has almost become a common practice for races in various spaces.

The Land of Qingqiu has two subterranean races: the Earthwolf and the Injured.

And so, a regular feud also played out between them.

Both these two races have lived in the land of Qingqiu for so long, one thousand years, two thousand years, three thousand years... With the passage of time, the hostility and hatred between each other are also accumulating, It has finally evolved into a relationship of immortality and mutual hatred. Wouldn't any of them be wolves or any harmless to trace the source of the original disagreement: an unfriendly look? A rude remark? The friction in the play of several children? A little difference in each other's living customs? - They don't care about this, they just hate each other, hate each other, any member of the other's race: old people, children or women, they all take the elimination of each other as the highest goal of their own race, in their culture and customs, the other is everything Synonymous with evil and darkness, and they are convinced of all this, they also pass on this idea from generation to generation, instilling this idea into their own children, children's children...

Brother Liu and his friends grew up in such a family listening to such stories.

"No injury..." Brother Liu silently recited the name that made him grit his teeth. He naturally hates these monsters he has never seen before, and has been studying hard to fight with them one day. Of course, his view is the same as that of other wolves. Any intersection of injuries is a bad and unforgivable act. "My uncle, he really... interacts with Wushang..." Brother Liu looked at his partners, expecting to hear a negative answer.

The boys nodded.

"Wakaishi not only communicated secretly and innocently, but also leaked the affairs of our clan to them, so that a caravan of our clan that went to the ground to trade with the gods was ambushed, and the entire army was wiped out—— Among them is Gao'er's uncle..." He looked at Gao'er, Gao'er nodded vigorously and clenched his fists.

"Later Ruo Shi escaped from our clan, and the clan went to hunt him down, but his spells were too powerful, and the clan who caught up with him were killed and injured a lot by him, until Uncle Jing Shi - your father himself came out, I just subdued this traitor! But he was seriously injured in the fight with Uncle Jingshi, and died before he was brought back for treatment. The whole thing is like this, the clansmen know about it, only you..."

"My parents never mentioned it to me..." Brother Liu still can't accept it. The steady, wise, and kind-hearted uncle in his father's mouth would be a sinner in the family, and he was actually killed by his father himself. Yes, his father killed his eldest brother whom he respected and loved each other so much... He finally understood why the eldest aunt left her two young sons to remarry, and also understood why the elders who spoiled and indulged the children were strict with Zhigui and Zhike It's getting a little harsh - they are the sons of sinners.

"Brother Liu, since Uncle Jingshi and Aunt Geng don't tell you about it, don't let them know that you've heard it."

"Yes, please don't betray me"

"Don't let us be scolded by adults."

The friends ordered Brother Liu, and they all dispersed. Brother Liu stayed there for a long time before he drank the rest of the wine in one breath and walked back drunk.

"Father." Brother Liu hesitated for a long time behind his father, and finally summoned the courage and called out.

Jing Shi was still flipping through the book while eating, and answered vaguely: "Why? Are you going to ask your mother for change? No, no, I secretly bought wine for all of you before, and it hurt me too. I was taught by your mother!"

Brother Liu looked at his father's back, took a deep breath, swallowed all the words, and Nuonuo said, "It's okay."

"Are you okay?" Jing Shi raised his head and twitched his nose vigorously, "What does your body smell like?" He stretched out his hand and flicked on Brother Liu's nose, "What are you doing, why don't you tell me soon!"

"It's just a small bottle..." Brother Liu touched his nose and pouted his mouth, "and everyone drank it together."

"I thought I didn't know how much your uncle's 'small bottle' contained!" Jing Shi himself licked his lips greedily, "Let your mother know that you were skinned! But..." Brother winked, "My son has grown up, and his alcohol intake is about to catch up with his father!"

"That's right!" Brother Liu also came to the spirit, "I'm father's son, how can I not drink!"

"Who's talking about wine to my son?" Geng Niang asked as she came out of the kitchen with the rice.

"No! I'm saying that my son has grown taller and is about to catch up with his father! Hahahaha..." Jing Shi hurriedly used "haha" to cover up.

"Yes, yes, it's a boy, it's a boy." Brother Liu stood side by side with his father, straightening his waist to show his mother.

"Hey, you two don't have to work together to fool me," Gengniang said as she put the food on the table, "Next time I hear from my parents complaining about Brother Liu taking the lead in stealing alcohol and getting drunk and making trouble, I'll be hungry. For three days, see if you still take alcohol as your lifeblood."

"Hungry for three days!" Jing Shi was startled, grabbed the chopsticks to pick up the vegetables, and said, "Eat first, eat first!" While helping Brother Liu put it in the bowl, Gengniang looked at him He, he quickly changed his words, "Eat more, drink less, come, son, eat more, eat more."

Brother Liu pursed his lips and smiled. While eating the food that his parents prepared for him, he served his parents with filial piety, and gradually put his uncle's affairs behind him. It was not until after dinner, sitting on the bed in his bedroom, that the uncle he had never met and what he had done came to mind again.

The uncle is talented and has a harmonious family. He has a loving wife and young son, and a brother who is affectionate and righteous. Why would he betray the family and collude with Wushang? What would he gain by doing this other than ruin? Is he crazy? Yes, he must be crazy! To associate with Wushuang, unless it is crazy! Brother Liu thought so bitterly, and naturally hated his uncle. But after a second thought, I thought that he was already dead, and he was killed by his own father! For some reason, Brother Liu shuddered. He tossed his shoes and quickly slid into the bed.

The uncle, who had never met before, ran into Brother Liu's dream this night.

This night in Brother Liu's dream, the uncle appeared again.

Brother Liu saw that scene in his dream: Uncle was running in front of him, running, splashing water under his feet, raising grass branches - yes, water and grass, it was born on the ground - he kept running , keep running, and behind him, there are many wolves chasing, from time to time one will rush out from the ground to stop in front, and then there will be close combat, blood splashing... Brother Liu could not hear the sound in the dream, but You can clearly see all this, and you can even see the painful expression on the face of the fallen Earth Wolf Race, the moment of death that makes people chill.

The uncle continued to run, and the chasing clansmen were gradually left behind. He ran across the river and entered a mountain forest. Moonlight, tree shadows, and small animals startled. These are scenes that Brother Liu should have never seen before. But shaking in the dream.

Suddenly, he could hear voices.

The sound of the wind, the swaying of the leaves, and... the sound of heartbeat, the sound of "bang bang", one, two, more and more clear, echoed in Brother Liu's mind, causing Brother Liu who was sleeping on the bed to roll, his hands Hold tight to your mouth.

A figure appeared before me.

It's dad, brother Liu thought in his dream.

It's Jing Shi standing on the road in front of him.

Dad is here! Brother Liu felt a burst of joy in his dream, but... he suddenly realized that Dad was here to kill Uncle! It was here to kill the man who had been desperately running away. Brother Liu's heart twitched, and he didn't know when it started. He transferred his sympathy to this man, and Brother Liu actually began to hope that he could escape.

Father Jingshi started talking to his uncle Ruoshi, waving his arms excitedly and his eyes wide open. Wakaishi also started to say something, and walked to Jingshi step by step, talking while walking. Brother Liu could only hear the sound of the wind and his heartbeat. He couldn't hear a word of the conversation between his father and his uncle, but he saw tears falling continuously, hitting the ground and the blades of grass.

Who is crying?

Who...

Jitishishi said something loudly again, and Wakaishi took another step forward, bent his knees, and knelt down in front of Shizuishi. Shizuishi drew his sword and pointed at Wakaishi.

"Dad!" Brother Liu shouted loudly. At this moment, Brother Liu's perspective changed in his dream. Before that, he seemed to have been standing beside Ruo Shi and looked around, watching everything, so he couldn't see Ruo Shi's face, and suddenly , These all turned, and Brother Liu felt that he was standing on the side of Wakaishi and his father, looking at the brothers.

"Father..." Brother Liu looked at his father's stern face and felt very frightened. It took a lot of effort to turn his attention to Wakaishi, who was kneeling on the ground.

He was taken aback by the sight.

The man kneeling on the ground has the exact same face as his father, Jeongseok.

"Dad..."

Brother Liu hesitated. He looked at the man holding the sword and the man kneeling on the ground in a panic. He couldn't tell which one was his father for a while. "Father." He took a few steps and called out in a low voice, but neither of the two men heard or felt his presence, and you still kept saying what my brother couldn't hear.

The man with the sword looked very angry, said with a rocky voice, and handed the sword forward a few inches, while the man kneeling on the ground burst into tears, instead of dodging, he reached out and grabbed the blade and pulled it forward, letting it Abutting on his chest, Brother Liu saw blood flow from his palms and chest. He said something again, looking at each other with extremely sad and begging eyes.

"Dad! Forgive him." Brother Liu couldn't help but plead. "Dad, he's the uncle!"

However, his voice could not reach the ears of the dreamer, and Jingshi in the dream suddenly raised his sword and stabbed it down. "No!!!" Brother Liu screamed, watching helplessly as the sword pierced into the heart of the man with his father's face.

"No! Dad, Dad! No!!"

Brother Liu screamed and sat up from the bed.

"Dream..." He wiped the sweat from his forehead and let out a shivering breath, "Dad, Daddy!" He jumped off the bed and ran barefoot to his parents' bedroom. It wasn't until he saw his parents lying on the bed through the crack of the door that he was relieved. "Yes, the one who died was the uncle... He was a traitor with Wushang, so he was executed... Not father, great, not father..." He returned to his room and sat on the edge of the bed, His whole body softened because he was relaxed. For some reason, tears fell. He recalled the same face as his father in the dream, but the sad face and the sword that pierced out, the tears could not stop...

"Uncle's portrait..." Brother Liu muttered, opening the scroll in his hand. There are two handsome young wolf boys standing side by side. The one on the right is covered in brownish-yellow fur and has a slight dimple at the corner of his mouth. It is obviously Brother Liu's father, Jingshi, and the one on the left is taller and slightly shorter with fur. It's dark brown, smiling quietly, with one hand on Shizuishi's shoulder - Wakaishi's portrait has long since been destroyed after he became a sinner, only this one has been preserved because of his younger brother Shizuishi. After coming down, it was also thrown in the warehouse. It was already covered with dust. Brother Liu quietly beat it for ten days and searched for another ten days before he got it out from under the sundries.

Looking at the painting, Brother Liu exclaimed, "It's great, it doesn't look like it at all." Ever since he had that dream, I don't know why he was concerned that the uncle in the dream had the same face as his father's. It was really hard to forget it, so I did everything I could to inquire about it, and found the portrait of the uncle to look at. Now it seems that although Wakaishi and Jingishi are indeed three-pointed in the same five senses, they are brothers at a glance, but their expressions and temperament are by no means the same, and they are not the same as their father in the dream.

"Is that so..." Brother Liu patted his face, "Brothers can't look exactly the same, unless they were changed by magic, what's wrong with me, because a dream is so worrying God!" He looked up at the mess in the warehouse that was being tossed around by himself, stuck out his tongue, the top priority was to get this place done before the mother showed up, otherwise it would suffer. Why would you do such a strange thing for a dream! Is there something wrong with the brain? Brother Liu knocked on his head, there should be a genius mind here - everyone says this, it's definitely not bragging - there are times when things go wrong? While sighing like this, he started to clean up the warehouse.

After a few minutes, he stopped again, opened the scroll again, hung it on the wall, and sat on a pile of debris to stare blankly...

"Don't run! Stop! You little bastards!" With the growl of the adult earth wolf, a large group of children ran out of his house through the wall, laughing and laughing, some with food, some with food in their hands. The jug, apparently stole something from this house just now, turned around and made a face while running.

"Brother Liu, you are the leader again. I'll turn back and tell your father, I won't break your legs." The adult ground wolf behind him chased after him fiercely, threatening loudly.

"Uncle's wine is so good that we came here to drink it, and we don't go to other people's houses!" Brother Liu replied while laughing, and the group of little brothers he led also joined together. No matter how fast an adult ground wolf can run, it can’t compare with these little thieves who can walk through walls and enter the house. Seeing that they can’t catch up, they have to stop and wave their arms loudly threatening to tell their parents that those The child is not afraid of his tricks, and in a blink of an eye, he escaped without a trace.

"Brother Liu and the others again? These children have become more and more troublesome recently. Last time, they stole the gopher skin from Uncle Bai's house to play as gophers, which made a whole street mess up." Another The young man on the sidelines said angrily and hilariously.

The wolf who lost something stomped his feet: "Teach them a lesson one day! These children can do nothing if they don't teach them."

Earth wolves have always spoiled their children. The adults gathered to discuss a few words, and they shook their heads after a while.

Brother Liu and the others ran all the way to deliver each other, and after a while, they ate and drank the stolen things, and then they wiped their mouths and ran towards the school. Another group of children ran past them, and when they saw that they were still in a hurry, they shouted: "Brother Liu, don't hurry up, or you will be late!" Steps, rushed to the front of everyone.

Over the past three years, Brother Liu has undergone some changes.

In terms of appearance, he has grown a bit taller, almost as tall as his father, Jeongseok, with wider shoulders, longer arms, and sharper claws. As far as personality is concerned, he's starting to get a little looser, less attentive, less serious, less dazzling than he used to be - he's still the best, but if he used to be five times better than his peers , ten times, now he is only two or three times more than them. Because of his changes, the teacher and the elders in the clan are very worried. They have talked to Jingshi and his wife many times in private about this matter, but there is still no effect, or the Jingshi and his wife are not willing to be themselves at all. His son is a genius, and they would rather he be like he is now—more ordinary, better like his peers—so in secret they support his son to put down his studies and live his life freely. With the acquiescence of his parents, Brother Liu of course became more lazy.

As far as Brother Liu himself is concerned, he is not aware of these changes in himself at all. Maybe it is because he spent all his life in learning from childhood to adulthood. He used to be interested in learning all kinds of knowledge. , he doesn't care about being called a genius or not at all, just because he likes to study, he rarely considers things other than eating, drinking, studying, playing, and acting like a spoiled child. Now that he is getting older, especially after knowing about the uncle's affairs, his worries have increased, and his interest in learning has also decreased a lot. His good performance makes him still in the top of the spear, but now this kind of excellence is more like a communication to the adults, rather than his self-motivation.

"Why don't you finish class?" While Su Xin explained the spell, Brother Liu was thinking about where to find friends to play after class, and what delicious dinner his mother would cook.

"Brother Liu, tell me the meaning of this spell." Su Xin stopped in front of him and asked now that Brother Liu was clearly distracted.

"Yes," Brother Liu agreed and said without hesitation, "One,..."

"Not bad." Su Xin praised in his mouth, but sighed inwardly. Brother Liu's homework was absolutely flawless, and his spells and martial arts were also superior to those of his accomplices. Now he only does the knowledge given by the teacher, and this knowledge is really too simple for his mind, so he spends most of his time playing, pranking, and even staying. Sure enough, just after answering the teacher's question, I saw him staring blankly at the wall again, and he began to wander too much.

Su Xin hopes that the lessons to be taught below can reinvigorate the spirit of brother Liu.

"From today on..." Su Xin said solemnly, he looked around at everyone, until even Brother Liu's attention returned to the class, he continued, "Starting today, I will teach You transform into *human magic."

"Wow..."

The students cheered in surprise.

The coming-of-age ceremony for the children of the Earthwolves is the moment when they are able to transform into human beings. No matter how long an earth wolf lives, if he cannot use magic to become a human, he will still be regarded as a child, he will not be able to live independently from his parents, nor can he establish a family and participate in the production of the earth wolf clan. , hunting, and are not allowed to go to the ground alone. On the contrary, as long as an earth wolf has mastered the magic of transforming into a human being, no matter how old he is, the surrounding clansmen will treat him as an adult earth wolf.

Usually, the children of the earth wolf tribe are taught this spell when they are around fifty years old, but this time, for some of the children in this group, it is obviously a little too early.

It's all about keeping my brother.

Su Xin and the elders of the clan decided to teach these children this important spell in advance, in the hope that when Brother Liu grows up, he can face up to the fact that he has grown up and no longer be busy playing around all day. Su Xin and the elders firmly believed that what happened to the other children, Brother Liu would definitely be able to easily learn this spell.

"The key to this spell is..." Su Xin looked straight at Brother Liu and began to talk...

"I starved to death..." Brother Liu lay down on the chair when he got home, and started screaming, "Mom, I'm so hungry."

"Come, come." Geng Niang said while carrying the food, "Every day I go out crazy until I come back so late, it's strange that I'm not hungry. Where did you go to make trouble today? Everyone is looking for it. It's coming!"

"Seventh uncle is really stingy, didn't he just stole a few dishes from him (he didn't dare to mention wine in front of his mother), last time he took a whole gopher from Big Brother Songyuan's house and didn't say anything. "

"Yes, it makes sense for you to steal other people's things." Gengniang poked his head.

"Children should have a good time playing!" Brother Liu said confidently, "And today Mr. taught us the magic of transforming people. After I learn it, I can't play as much as I do now. ."

"Mr. taught you how to become human?!" Gengniang, who was setting dinner, raised her head in astonishment. She forced a smile and asked, "Why is it so early? Is it a bit difficult for everyone?"

Brother Liu pouted, he never felt that any kind of spell was difficult, he just said: "It's boring anyway."

"It's like you don't want to learn." Gengniang put the cup and plate in front of him.

"I don't want to learn." Brother Liu immediately admitted, "It's good to be a child and act like a spoiled child. I don't want to grow up. I really don't understand why Mr. taught us this spell so much earlier."

"Perhaps..." Gengniang had vaguely guessed the intentions of the elders in the clan, "Maybe it's because Mr. Shi thinks you are very good." She forced a smile and said.

"Mother, I want to be your son for the rest of my life, okay if I don't learn the magic of transforming people?" Brother Liu looked for his mother's clothes and acted like a spoiled child.

"Silly child, even if you are a thousand years old or ten thousand years old, you will always be my son. This will never change." Gengniang put her arms around him and said, "But in my mother's mind You will always be as cute as the little, furry brother Liu held in her mother's arms."

"Mother." Brother Liu immediately turned into a dog and got into his mother's arms. He used to want a few younger brothers and sisters to be able to show off their prestige as older brothers, but now he thinks that it would be better if he didn't have any younger siblings, lest they would part with my favor, and he would be doted on by his parents all the time. how nice.

"Ms. Geng, I'm back! This is today's prey." Jing Shi was half-drunk and walked in with a huge mouse in his hand, "She took off the skin and made a coat for her son. ' he announced triumphantly, 'it's rare to see a gopher of this color, and it goes well with my son's fur.'

Gopher is a mouse that lives in the soil. It is a unique animal in the country of Qingqiu. It looks like a fire rat living in flames. It is huge. The largest is said to grow to be as big as an elephant. Small as a rabbit, with thick leather and delicious meat, it is an animal with many uses. Because they generally live deep underground, it is not easy for other races to capture them. Only monsters such as earth wolves and harmless monsters have the ability to use them as their main prey.

However, gophers are powerful, sharp claws, and omnivores. Sometimes ground wolves, old and weak women and children of the harmless tribe, when they meet alone in places far from towns, will become their delicacy, even if hunters. Dealing with them must also be done carefully.

Still Stone is the best hunter of the Earth Wolf clan. Every time he hunts, he will return with a full reward, and all he hunts are huge prey, which occupies a very important position in the trade between the wolves and the ground dwellers. He usually keeps only one third of these prey, and divides the rest into two, one for Zhigui and Zhike brothers, and one for relatives, friends and neighbors. This time, it seemed that he had returned drunk again at the house of the clan who received his gift.

"Don't be noisy," Gengniang put her finger on her lips, "Brother Liu is asleep."

"My son is sleeping, it doesn't matter, he will be happy when he sees the gift I brought him, he won't blame me for waking him up! Right, son!" Jing Shi walked towards Brother Liu's room with drunken eyes. .

"Xianggong..." Gengniang stopped him and said after a while, "Today, the school has started to teach the magic of transforming human form."

"Okay, good thing, it's a good thing that the child is growing up! Has brother Liu learned it? My son is smart, he can learn it as soon as he learns it!" Jingshi's voice was as loud as thunder.

"He doesn't seem to want to learn very much," Gengniang said worriedly. "When he was eating, he kept acting like a spoiled child, and then he went to lie down after eating. Tell me, why did your husband start teaching them this way so early? Spell, will it..."

Jing Shi quieted down and shook his head, which was heavy because he drank too much alcohol, before saying, "It's too early... My son is not in a hurry to grow up..." He and Gengniang exchanged Look, fell into silence.

Actually, the noise of Jingshi's return had awakened Brother Liu. He originally wanted to put on his clothes to greet his father, but when he walked to the door, he heard the conversations of his parents. Brother Liu lay back on the bed silently again, he felt that it was not good for him to run out now. Parents are not the same as the clansmen. They gave Brother Liu a loose living space. They did not ask him too much because of his talent. Instead, they always worried that Brother Liu would delay the life he should enjoy because he was busy with his studies. . Brother Liu knows this.

Brother Liu himself doesn't know what has happened to him in recent years. In fact, he is not greedy for play and fun at all, and his enthusiasm for learning about spells and other subjects has not declined at all, but he just doesn't want to be in front of gentlemen. It showed that he would rather practice secretly and desperately, but in front of the gentlemen he claimed that he had not learned the spells that he had used with ease, or deliberately reversed the front and rear of his homework, and then pretended to regret that he fell asleep while reciting. However, in recent years, there have been fewer and fewer people calling him a genius, and Brother Liu couldn't help but feel proud - he wanted to learn and master more things, but he was really tired of the name "genius".

Sometimes, when Brother Liu was secretly looking for a place to practice, he had encountered brothers Zhigui and Zhike. While hiding, he had a feeling that he couldn't help but want to laugh - a few years ago, He never imagined that he would do the same thing as their two brothers.

As my father said, I don't want to grow up.

Sometimes there was a cry outside the door, and Brother Liu sat up from the bed all of a sudden.

"Woooo... Big brother..." Jing Shi buried his face in his wife's arms, sobbing hard, "Big brother's spells are the most brilliant... woo... If he were to teach my brother... Uuuu... bro..."

As long as he is drunk, he often does this, talking about his elder brother Ruo Shi crying. Before, Brother Liu didn't understand why, but now Brother Liu understands that it was because his father killed the uncle, and he killed the uncle with his own hands. Since knowing the truth, Brother Liu's heart has been tied to a knot. The surrounding clansmen have repeatedly emphasized that the uncle is a traitor, but Brother Liu cares about something else - his father killed his brother with his own hands. , just because he is a traitor - a traitor really deserves to die, but... kill his own siblings... Brother Liu can't let go of this kind of thing. He knew his father was the same, which is why he often cried when he was drunk.

"Dad..." Brother Liu covered his mouth and tears fell...

"Ten days have passed, which of you has learned this spell?" Although Su Xin asked everyone, her expectant eyes fell on Brother Liu.

Brother Liu avoided his gaze, lowered his head, and the school was silent.

Su Xin was slightly surprised, because usually in such a situation, Brother Liu would be the first to jump out and say that he had learned what he had learned. He sighed and said, "Then give you another ten days, don't be too hasty, meditate. Experience makes it happen.”

"Yes." The students answered together.

Su Xin waved them away.

"Stay brother."

Brother Liu stopped and turned back when he heard Su Xin calling him.

"Do you have any questions? Feel free to ask me if you have any."

Brother Liu nodded: "Thank you sir, I will try my best."

Su Xin looked at him and sighed, "Go."

Brother Liu saluted him and quickly caught up with his friends who were waiting for him in the distance.

"How is that possible!! Brother Liu, how is it possible that you didn't even learn it!" As soon as Gu'er walked out of the academy, she screamed.

"Yes, it's a matter of course that we can't learn such a difficult spell within ten days. Brother Liu didn't learn it! Are you not feeling well?" Shen Zhu also asked Brother Liu with concern.

"Yes!"

"Brother Liu, what's wrong with you?"

"Brother..."

The buddies chattered.

Brother Liu walked forward quickly with his head down, ignoring them.

"Brother?"

"Brother Liu, it's not a big deal if you can't learn it once. Let's play football later, shall we?"

"Who like you just remember to play! Brother Liu has never learned spells, right, Brother Liu?"

"He didn't learn this time..."

"But he will definitely learn it in ten days! Yes, stay brother!"

"Okay! You guys are so annoying!" Brother Liu suddenly shouted, raising his head and facing them angrily.

Everyone was taken aback by him and looked at him bewildered. Shen Zhu patted his shoulder and said, "Forget it, school is over, let's not talk about homework, let's go play."

"I'm not going, I'm going home." Brother Liu said listlessly, waved to everyone, and left alone.

"He didn't learn it himself, why did he get angry with us!" a teenager shouted in disapproval.

Shen Zhu hurriedly tugged at the front of his shirt to stop him from talking. He looked at Brother Liu's back and knew that although Brother Liu was not as talented as in the past, the things the teacher taught were within the stipulated time. It would be the first time to learn, he thought, this must have made Brother Liu feel very uncomfortable.

"Brother Liu, it's time to eat!" Gengniang stood at the door of Brother Liu's bedroom, calling in.

"Don't eat!"

The blunt tone of her son made Geng Niang startle, and she hurriedly opened the door and walked in. Seeing Brother Liu squatting on the chair with his knees in his arms, he was pouting, and when he heard his mother come in, he glanced up and lowered his head again, "Brother Liu, what's the matter with you?"

"It's fine!"

"Is there anything unhappy, I can't tell my mother?"

"It's all right!" Brother Liu shouted loudly.

Niang Geng stayed for a while, walked up to him, and said solemnly, "Brother Liu, look up at Niang!"

"..." Brother Liu bit his lip and raised his head.

Mother Geng stroked his face with her hand and said softly, "Brother Liu, mother knows you must have something on your mind, so she's not happy, right? But you can talk about it and discuss it with your parents. Ah. When I get home like this, I lock myself in the house and get angry with my mother. Is that right?"

"I'm sorry, mother, I know I'm wrong." Brother Liu said embarrassedly, "I didn't learn the magic of transforming people, and Mr. asked me alone in front of everyone in class, so... I feel very ashamed!"

Geng Niang took him tenderly in her arms, stroked his head and said, "How can anyone be perfect? ​​My son's fault is not that he is not smart, but he is just too smart. From childhood to adulthood, it is natural for people to experience failure, so they will understand that some things can be easily done, and some things must be done with extra effort, and even some things, no matter how hard they work, they can't do it. And my precious son..." Gengniang looked at Brother Liu and said, "You, you have been too smart since you were a child, there is nothing you can't learn. Your father and I have always been worried. One day, you will get used to this kind of day when you can learn everything in one go, and you don’t need to be persistent. Once you encounter something that you can’t do for a while, will you be so unbearable, or even give up on yourself? ..."

"I've already encountered this..."

"Really? So what are you going to do next?" Gengniang asked him with a smile.

Brother Liu jumped down from the chair, waved his hands and shouted, "Now of course I'm going to eat, and then practice magic seriously!" He smiled and hugged his mother's shoulders and walked out, "Mother, look at it, you Son is not someone who can't afford to lose!"

"Is it..."

"Yeah yeah...what a treat today!"

Gengniang looked at her son's figure on the dining table and showed a consoling smile.

After another ten days, Brother Liu and his friends still had no one who could master the spell of changing people. Su Xin clearly showed his disappointment with Brother Liu.

After that, another ten days.

"This time, who can change?"

As soon as Su Xin's words fell, a young man raised his hand, everyone's eyes were all focused on him, and everyone's expressions showed extreme disbelief - the first person to learn this spell, It wasn't Brother Liu!

"Zhike?" Su Xin also hesitated for a moment before speaking, "You? You... well, you can demonstrate it."

"Yes." In addition to being nervous, Zhike's tone was obviously proud. He stood in front of everyone, reciting words in his mouth, his body changed, and after a while, he became the appearance of a fifteen or sixteen-year-old human boy. "Sir, do you think so?"

"Yes, you did a great job!" Su Xin also had to nod her head.

For the first time in her life, Zhike received a compliment from her husband. Brother Liu sat there with no expression.

"From today onwards, you are an adult man," Su Xin began to teach the man who had just become an adult wolf, so the rest of the time was spent in this boring topic pass.

It wasn't until after class that Su Xin called Brother Liu: "The ceremony of coming of age should have been arranged by my parents, but Zhike's parents are gone. Go back and tell your parents and ask them to arrange it for you."

Brother Liu nodded stiffly: "Yes," and then turned his head and ran away without saying goodbye to Mr.

Not only was Su Xin not angry because of his rudeness, but instead he stroked his beard and smiled. He sincerely hoped that this aggressive method could make Brother Liu angrily work hard.

"Don't go!" Brother Liu was lying on the bed angrily, and Ren Gengniang couldn't pull it up, "I won't go to his house! I just won't go!"

"Liu Ge'er, you child! This is a major event for Zhike, how could your cousin not go!"

"I said no!" Liu Ge pulled the quilt over his head.

"You are too self-willed, come out."

"No!" Brother Liu simply turned into a dog and burrowed into the quilt, just to prevent his mother from grabbing him.

"Brother Liu..." Gengniang was so tired that she was sweating profusely, she finally grabbed his tail and pulled him down to the bed. Brother Liu grabbed the quilt with four claws, but didn't move, mother and son. This made the river.

"Come out!"

"No!"

"Come out!"

"Never die!"

“…”

As soon as Jing Shi stepped in the door, he saw this situation, "Haha..." He leaned against the wall and laughed, "Haha..., what are you two girls doing...haha..."

"Xianggong, you can also talk about my son. Why is he unwilling to get up to wash up and go to the uncle's house." Gengniang turned back to talk and was distracted, but Brother Liu took the opportunity to get rid of his tail and folded back to the bed. I went, only showing my nose and a pair of eyes and said, "I'm not going anyway!"

"Come on, son!" Jing Shi followed his wife's instructions and came over to pat Liu Ge, "Get up, isn't it because you haven't learned a spell. What's the big deal! I think you and I learned seven and a half of ten spells back then. No, no, it's fine."

"I'm not you!"

"Don't compare your son to you!"

——The mother and son have the same aspirations at this time.

"Haha, so speaking, my son has often been unable to learn magic recently, which means that my son is becoming more and more like me, which is a good thing. Son, this is called a low ebb period, and it will be fine after a while. When my father used to be, there was a period of time when everything didn't go well, and I couldn't learn anything, but after a period of time, I suddenly became enlightened and became handy again."

"You don't understand at all!" Brother Liu jumped out of the quilt, bowed his waist and shouted, "Pretending to be unlearned is not the same as actually learning it! This spell is something I really can't learn. Yes! I can't understand no matter how much I practice! I've never encountered a spell I can't learn! I..."

"Pretend not to learn?" Geng Niang and Jing Shi looked at him together.

Brother Liu realized that he had leaked his words, turned around and went under the quilt again, Jing Shi grabbed him, picked him up, and carried him on his shoulders, "Let's go, son, go wash up! You go to participate. After this banquet, I will personally teach you martial arts!"

"Really?!" Brother Liu suddenly widened his eyes.

Jing Shi's martial arts is the number one master of the Earth Wolf Clan. He also occasionally serves as a martial arts teacher for the younger generation. The teenagers in the clan are proud of being able to get his guidance, and Brother Liu is even more proud of himself. His father was proud of him, but Jingshi was never willing to teach Brother Liu or other teenagers alone - only for a while he was willing to teach brothers Zhigui and Zhike, but the two brothers refused after a long time. The reason was that he wanted to concentrate on studying spells—today, he actually took the initiative to bring up this matter that Brother Liu had been begging for in the past, so Brother Liu had to squint and look at him suspiciously, “I want to lie to me and then go back and regret it. ?"

"When did I lie to you, is Dad that kind of person?" Jing Shi patted him.

"Take me to hunt if you want me to take medicine; buy me a new bookcase if I don't want my brother; say I want to eat green vegetables that I hate, then buy wine for me without my mother; Give me money without revealing the love letter you received from a woman..." Brother Liu counted his paws, "It didn't happen once! Liar!"

"If you say that, it seems that... Sister Geng, Brother Liu is talking nonsense! There is no such thing! No!"

Niang Geng sat down at the table with a stern face, and patted the table coldly: "Tell me, how many things you father and son are hiding from me! It's stealing wine and showing love. I won't explain it today. We're not going anywhere!"

"Ms. Geng, misunderstanding, Brother Liu is talking nonsense, there is no such thing, who would like me, right?"

"It means I'm very out of touch."

"No, no, no... Brother Liu! Come and explain to your mother!" He shouted at Brother Liu, who was sneaking out the door.

"I'm going to wash my face, I'm going to wash my face..." Brother Liu knew that he was in trouble and ran out in a hurry.

Gengniang looked at the door in a trance and said slowly: "The spells I learned deliberately pretend not to be... This child is more and more unpredictable to me."

"Wait for me to give him some good advice on his martial arts. It's okay not to learn spells. I didn't want to teach him martial arts. I really didn't want this kid to take up arms..."

"He is your son, how can he not be a martial artist."

"Yes, my son..." Jing Shi let out a soft breath, "My son has grown up..."

"Also," Gengniang stood up and went to arrange the clothes for Brother Liu, and said, "Honestly take out the letter you received and give it to me, or else you won't be allowed to eat for three days!"

"Believe...Miss Geng, there's nothing wrong, it was Brother Liu who framed me...Miss Geng..."

This is a high and wide underground cave. It has not been transformed by the wolves and completely maintains its natural appearance. There are stalactites hanging on the top of the cave, stalagmites growing on the ground, and the sound of dripping water is intermittent in the cave. reverberate. There is a flat empty field on one side of the hole. On one side of the empty field is a row of weapon racks. Eighteen weapons are readily available. On the other side are a chair and a small table, and wine bottles are placed on the table. A jug or something.

"Dad, this is your martial arts training ground?" Brother Liu asked cheerfully, the depression at the coming-of-age ceremony of Zhike was swept away.

"Of course, your father and I are the No. 1 master of the earth wolf clan, and of course there must be the best training ground."

"Bragging." Brother Liu pouted. He grabbed the jug and took a sip before sneaking up to the weapon rack with his hands behind his back and looking up and down.

"Choose what you like, and come and show off with your dad!" Jing Shi said loudly. In the past, Brother Liu did not have a specific weapon when he studied martial arts. This is because Brother Liu focused more on spells, and because Jing Shi was deeply inward and did not want his son to pick up a weapon. But now that he has decided to teach him martial arts, he should first let him choose a weapon that he is comfortable with.

Brother Liu touched the long spear, picked up the single sword and flicked it with his finger, put it down again, picked up a pair of gold-plated sledgehammers and threw it up and down, then frowned and dropped his hand, looking at the dozen or so side by side Take a sharp sword. Shizuoka clenched his sword tightly.

"Don't!" Brother Liu finally waved his hand and turned around, and said with a mighty look, "I'm very good even if I don't need weapons."

"Really? Let your father try it!" Jing Shi took off his saber and threw it aside, standing in front of Brother Liu empty-handed, and hooked him with his index finger.

Brother Liu stretched out his hand, his claws popped out from under his skin, took a deep breath, suddenly screamed, and rushed towards his father. He first took Jingshi's chest straight, but halfway up his arm, he turned to attack his throat, while the other hand swept a claw, preventing the opponent from jumping and dodging - this was his most proud trick, every time he played Friends who can fight with this trick beg for mercy. Of course, he didn't expect his own sticky play to hit his father, but as long as he was shocked and made him feel that he was not bad. It is best to tear his clothes and let him go back and be scolded by his mother.

Jing Shi didn't wait for his figure to fully unfold, hooked his wrist and stumbled under his feet. Brother Liu felt like he was flying through the clouds, and he fell a somersault before he could regain his senses. "How's it going, son? How long does your father have?" Jing Shi asked as he crouched down and touched Brother Liu's head.

Brother Liu grabbed his neck and wanted to push him under him. Jing Shi stretched his right arm between Brother Liu's hands and scratched his right hand on Brother Liu's waist a few times. He couldn't stop laughing "haha", the strength of his whole body suddenly vanished, and he was firmly suppressed by Jingshi again.

"Son, admit defeat?"

"No!"

Brother Liu stiffened his waist, trying to hold it up with all his strength. This time, Jing Shi didn't do anything, just let him work hard there, and continued to press on him with a smile.

Brother Liu struggled for more than half an hour before giving up his efforts, lying on the ground, spreading his limbs and shouting: "Okay, I will admit defeat!"

"You'd better admit defeat earlier." Jing Shi flicked a finger on his forehead, and let go of him with a laugh.

"It's not over yet!" Brother Liu took the opportunity to jump up and strangle Jing Shi's neck, "I haven't lost yet!"

"Little devil, you can even use tricks like this!" Jing Shi said in a warning tone, "But it's fifty years too early to use this trick on your father! No, it's too early. A hundred years... is it two hundred years earlier! Or three hundred..." He began to seriously analyze the difference in strength between his son and himself.

"Nonsense, I'm not that much worse!" Brother Liu shouted in disbelief, "Quickly surrender! Otherwise I'll..." He squeezed Jingshi's neck hard, thinking that he was in a situation where he was now. The position is more favorable, and I hope to regain a city from my father. But before he could finish his words, Jing Shi had already shrunk his body, and put on Brother Liu's clothes with his backhand. After "Ouch", Brother Liu returned to the shape of lying on the ground.

"Take it!"

"Disagree!"

Brother Liu didn't hesitate to jump up before Jingshi suppressed him again, and charged at him again. But this time Jingshi didn't want to suppress him at all, but wanted to take a good look at his full strength, so he let him attack him. Although Brother Liu's martial arts are not as outstanding as magic, and he is also bright among his peers, but compared with Jing Shi, the first master of the Earth Wolf clan, he is like a child who is waving his fists to scare people, and he has no power. Word. Sometimes he followed Liu Ge's offensive, turning him around like a spinning top, sometimes making him fall one after another, and sometimes walking around him so fast that he couldn't even touch his shadow. arrive.

Liu Ge Ming knew that he was far from his father, but he took a gamble and insisted on ripping a hole in his clothes to let him go back and be scolded by his mother, so he used all his skills, Jumping up and down to confront his father. Ever since I was a child, I heard that my father was the number one expert in the clan, and my father was the number one expert in the clan, so it gradually became a habit, and these brothers never seriously considered how tall the number one expert was. Moreover, Brother Liu has been more interested in magic than martial arts since he was a child. Although he also used coquettish ways to coerce his father to teach him martial arts, but his father insisted on not teaching Brother Liu and was not disappointed. In his consciousness In the middle, his father is a rough man, a little confused, and a man who is very afraid of his wife. He is far from the "most powerful" and "most amazing" in other ethnic groups. Until today, when confronting his father face-to-face, Brother Liu. Only then did he truly appreciate the weight of the words "the number one master of the earth wolf clan".

"It's so heavy!"

Brother Liu yelled, and Jingshi pressed his entire body on top of him, making him lie on the ground and unable to move. Brother Liu struggled a few times, and suddenly he sank down into the soil. Turned over in the ground, and rushed out to attack Jingshi's lower plate. After several hours of fighting, Brother Liu also realized some tricks. He stopped fighting hard and started to play some tricks with his father - using the spells he was good at to create opportunities in battle, and then look at Gap attacked his father. It's just that the father's space is too hard to find. It seems that there is no defense in his body, but as long as he attacks, he can easily dodge away. Seeing a move that is about to hit him, he finally touches the corner of his clothes. No, it was his father's casual attack. To put it mildly, he didn't have much strength, was not fast, and his strength was not violent.

"Dad is amazing!" Brother Liu sighed in his heart, full of pride, "One day I will be as amazing as him!" Before he knew it, he had begun to imitate his father's footsteps and moved.

"Good boy!" Jing Shi also praised his son in his heart. Compared to when he first started, Brother Liu's body movement and melon speed were much slower due to fatigue, but the movement and movement he used But it is more effective and accurate, and it naturally uses some of the actions that Jing Shi showed in it, and integrates it into his own actions, as if that was what he would have known before. "As expected of my son!" Jing Shi couldn't help but be overjoyed, "Sure enough, he will learn it! It seems that my kung fu can indeed be passed on to him!"

"Plop!" Brother Liu was thrown by Jingshi again.

This afternoon, he has fallen for an unknown number of times, his clothes are also torn, the corners of his mouth are swollen, his hands and legs are all scratched by rocks, and his smooth fur is also rolled up and messed up. Vice embarrassed. However, his expression was very excited. In his heart, for the first time, the study of martial arts passed his interest in spells.

"Okay, son, take a break!"

"No, I'm not tired yet!" Brother Liu yelled, "Don't run away if you win!"

"Your mother is at home waiting for us to go back to dinner, you know what will happen if you are late!"

"I don't care!" Brother Liu stared at him, "Go on! If I can't win, I won't eat!"

"Haha, son, if you don't eat for 30 to 50 years, you will starve to death!"

"Humph! Don't run!" Brother Liu chased after his father again. He didn't want to win his father, but until now, he has been so embarrassed, and his father is still calm and irritating, at least to achieve the original goal!

After fighting for more than an hour, Brother Liu felt that his physical strength was about to reach the limit. He was panting, sweating, and his feet were sluggish. He couldn't lift his arms or move his arms. I can't get up. "No, I just don't want to let it go!" Brother Liu thought to himself. At this moment, Jing Shi turned to the right in order to avoid his grab, and at the same time raised his left hand slightly, "He's going to push my shoulder." Brother Liu's mind flashed, and he remembered that Jing Shi had already used this product twice. Trick one. He knew that he couldn't dodge this move whether he continued to attack or dodge, so this time he used another method. Brother Liu rushed to meet Jingshi's left hand. When Jingshi's left hand was about to be pressed against him, he suddenly lowered his body, and Jingshi pressed his backhand from his shoulder. Immediately changed the move and smashed down, but Brother Liu had already approached him with the strength of bowing and rushing forward. He stretched out his claws and grabbed it. Jingshi's body ducked, but he heard a "chi" sound, and the front of his clothes Brother Liu tore off a piece of cloth several inches long.

"Haha!" Brother Liu laughed a few times and fell to the ground on his back, holding the cloth in his hand, "I won!"

"You're a good kid." Jing Shi pulled his clothes and watched - the new clothes on his upper body were torn, and it was estimated that he had to be cleaned up at his wife's place.

"Hahaha..." Brother Liu was very proud.

"Okay, it's time to get up and go back." Jing Shi urged - if it's too late to go home if the clothes are torn, it's possible that you won't be allowed to eat at night.

"I don't have the strength to stand up!" Brother Liu lied down on the ground.

"I was so excited just now."

"I just can't walk, you carry me!"

"How old are you, you still need your father's back!"

"Otherwise, recite the love letter you received to my mother!"

"Brother stay! You unworthy son."

"Do you carry it? One, two, three,..."

"Okay, okay, I'll carry you, come!"

Brother Liu smugly climbed onto Jingshi's shoulder and let him carry his back, put his arms around his father's neck, and suddenly remembered something and asked: "By the way, you didn't let me hit you just to get home earlier. right?"

"Of course, or you can hit me!"

"Oh, that's what I really hit with my ability! That's great, hahaha." Brother Liu laughed and patted Jingshi on the shoulder, "Run, run! Run! "He sat high on his father's back like a child, and smiled happily again. Jing Shi quickened his pace, and the father and son disappeared into the dark underground road after a while...

Brother Liu threw the towel and fell heavily on the ground. He gasped and said, "Dad, how is it, am I okay today? I hit you four times."

Jing Suk sat next to him, wiping away his sweat and said, "What is that, an overly hairy attack! Two of them, if I counterattack, you'll be finished immediately! The other time I deliberately let you in, so close You control you, and you didn't realize my intentions. You only hit me once, and it didn't hurt or itch!"

"Hey, come again!" Brother Liu suddenly bounced off the ground. He rushed to his father again.

These days, the father and son have been teaching and learning, completely immersed in martial arts. Staying brother is quick, savvy, and good at drawing inferences from other facts. Now he has the opportunity to deeply understand the mysteries of martial arts from the previous petty troubles and a little bit of fur. Coupled with the guidance of a teacher like Jing Shi, in just ten days, he can be said to be different from the previous brother Liu in martial arts. It's just that one mind can't be used for two. Maybe a real genius can sit on two chairs at the same time, but Brother Liu can't, so while he is addicted to martial arts, another kind of knowledge - magic is left behind.

"Okay, stay brother, that's it for today." Jing Shi retracted his moves.

"Why?" Brother Liu pinched his fingers to calculate the time (there is no day and night underground, and there is no sun, moon, and stars, so the wolves use the hourglass and pinch calculations to determine the time), "It's still early for dinner, and you're hungry again. already?"

"Take your father as a gluttonous pig!" Jing Shi tapped him on the head (Liu Ge whispered, "You are.") "Today is the day you go to school, have you forgotten?"

"Oops." Brother Liu opened his mouth wide, he really forgot everything.

"Go home and pack up, change clothes, don't be late."

"I..." Brother Liu bit his lip, "Anyway, I haven't practiced at all these days, so I won't be able to go, I won't go."

Jing Shi looked at him, and there was silence between father and son. After a while, Jing Shi smiled and patted his shoulder: "Okay, go! It's okay, don't be late again."

"Yeah." Brother Liu nodded and walked to the house side by side with his father.

In this day's class, Zhigui also learned the spell to change human beings. Like his younger brother ten days ago, he proudly showed his human appearance to everyone. Su Xin said some encouraging words to Brother Liu like last time, but it was very strange that Brother Liu didn't care about these things at all. All he could think about now was how to resist his father. The trick of punching both fists together; how to turn around faster while making a move, and how to adjust breathing when jumping continuously... Finally, after listening to Su Xin's nagging with a stomach full of impatience, he spit out " With the words "get out of class", he pulled out his legs and ran out.

"Brother Liu, do you want to go to Shen Zhu's house for a drink?" Gu'er stopped him loudly, "His parents went to a relative's house today."

"Drinking?" Brother Liu licked his lips, "But my father is waiting for me to go to class..."

"Uncle Jing Shi is waiting for you? He has finally started to teach you martial arts?" Shen Zhu asked in surprise, "Didn't he always refuse to teach you?"

Brother Liu raised his head proudly: "How could he not teach such an excellent son of mine! Just wait and see, soon the number one master of the wolf clan will be my brother Liu! Hahaha!"

"Blowout!"

"You've thought about Uncle Jing Shi, another hundred years!"

"Yes, yes."

The teens raved about his self-confidence.

"You dare to doubt what I said!" Brother Liu squinted, and cold light shot out from his slit eyes, "Damn boys, are you asking for a fight right? I'm just trying out a newly learned boxing technique! Don't run, take my punch!"

The teenagers scattered in a hurry and ran around, with Brother Liu rolling up his sleeves and chasing after him.

Shen Zhu did not join the ranks of those teenagers. He stayed behind and ran side by side with brother Liu, and asked worriedly: "But brother Liu, how is your spell learning? If you have been addicted to martial arts, you will No..."

"I see, I see, I will practice spells when I have time." Brother Liu waved his hand indifferently.

"..." Shen Zhu looked at his figure and couldn't hide her worries.

Sure enough, just like what Shen Zhu was worried about, Brother Liu has never devoted his time to spells since he started to learn martial arts. After ten days, he still hasn't learned the spell to transform into a human being. One day, another ten days, he continued to help me with martial arts on his lips and gestures in his hands. It is said that he once practiced martial arts in his sleep and smashed the furniture in his bedroom until it was clean. It was only after waking up his parents that he was subdued by Jingshi.

About four months later, the third teenager learned the magic of transforming into a human, and after another month, Shen Zhu could also transform into a human.

When Shen Zhu stood in front of Brother Liu in the appearance of that fair-skinned and quiet teenager he changed, Brother Liu didn't care at all, but laughed out loud: "Shen Zhu, hahaha, you don't have anything on your body. The hairy look...hahaha...weird....haha...looks like..."

"Brother Liu..." Shen Zhu looked at him worriedly, "Why hasn't your spell progressed? You are obviously smarter than us, why I have already learned it, but you still can't? Is it? …………Did you never practice?"

"Yes." Brother Liu replied as a matter of course, "I can't do two things at the same time."

"But if it goes on like this...you won't..."

"You can learn spells at any time. If I don't seize the opportunity, what if my father changes his mind and doesn't teach me what to do!" Brother Liu patted Shen Zhu on the shoulder, "Don't worry, I will learn the spells you pull down in the future. If you catch up, don't you believe me!"

Shen Zhu smiled and said, "That's right, how can Liu Ge'er's mind be on a par with ours."

"Will your family celebrate for you today?" Brother Liu put his arms around Shen Zhu's shoulder and said, "Would you please invite me for a drink?"

"Of course, if you don't invite others, you will be invited."

"Okay, have a drink!"

"Brother Liu, I'm not inviting you to drink."

"Same, let's go."

When Liu Ge was indulging in martial arts, he unknowingly passed for ten years.

For ten years, Brother Liu has never regained his passion for magic. A few months ago, after the last boy of his age, Gao’er, also learned the spell of transforming into a human, he became the only one of his friends who could not use this spell, so now he simply doesn’t even go to the school Now, in addition to competing with his father all day, he went to the place where the warriors and masters of the earth wolf tribe gathered to challenge them. After more than ten years, including Jing Shi, the warriors of the Earth Wolf tribe have won less than ten of Brother Liu, and only twenty of them can be tied with him. Even Jingshi was astounded by his progress in martial arts these days.

Recently, even the elders of the clan, including Su Xin, gave up their urging of Brother Liu. Probably, Brother Liu's talent in martial arts made them think that they lost a magic genius in exchange for a martial arts genius. It's not a big loss. It's also because of their thoughts that Brother Liu can learn martial arts according to his own wishes without interference.

Another change in Liu Ge's life over the past decade is that the composition of his friends has begun to change.

Those teenagers and girls who grew up with Brother Liu but have now learned humanization spells and have held adulthood ceremonies have changed their identities in their lives. They must learn various skills, handicrafts, planting Inheriting the way of life of the earth wolves, they must also accept the arrangements of their elders to start a family and raise their offspring. They can no longer be as carefree as children. Playing and playing, of course, there is no time to play with brother Liu. Friends sometimes get together for a drink and they are generous. They don’t have to hide from adults as before. I even learn in his own brewery. He often brings his craftsmanship to everyone to taste. , although the result always drew a chorus of boos.

The topics that everyone talks about have long been far away from games and learning, and more often they are talking about how this year's harvest is, who has better craftsmanship, which girl is more handsome, whether they have ordered a kiss, etc. Brother Liu has become more and more speechless with everyone, and has become increasingly estranged.

Now among his childhood playmates, there are only four or five people, including Shen Zhu, Gao'er, and Yu, who still drink and talk with him from time to time, and he also has other friends who have nothing to do with him. Friends, teenagers who have learned martial arts since childhood.

Earth wolf teenagers and girls who have studied martial arts since childhood are relatively weak in magic skills among their peers in the clan. Among them, there are many people who are much older than Brother Liu but still will not become human beings. They are all descendants of hunter families, all of them are generous and generous. They don't care about the difference between adults and children. They only use who is more skilled in martial arts and who has more prey to determine who is more respected. . Brother Liu was hanging out with them, practicing martial arts, hunting, eating meat and drinking in large bowls, as if he was in heaven. He only regretted that he had not been here earlier, and that he had forgotten about the friends who had learned magic with him.

"Brother Liu, are you ready?" Shen Zhu asked. He took a deep breath as he tightened the ropes on his armor. "Ready..." Brother Liu replied in a long voice, "You have asked ten times." Seeing that Shen Zhu was playing with the ropes for the armor, he kept pointing at him "this way" and "that way" .

Yu was standing beside them, also working on the armor. It was the first time in his life that he wore armor, and he didn't know how to tie it. Grab the front and back two straps and get ready to tie them together.

"If you tie it like that, you'll fall off as soon as you run away," Brother Liu helped Shen Zhu to fix it and then came to help him, complaining, "Why are you shaking so much!"

"Nervous, we are nervous." Gu'er trembled even more, and even the armor he had put on at home at the beginning was rattling. Among his friends, he was so nervous that his hair stood on end.

Brother Liu poured a glass of water and handed it to him: "Don't be nervous, it's no big deal!"

"You're not nervous when you go out hunting for the first time?!" Shen Zhu also poured herself a glass of water, but her hands were shaking, and the water in the glass splashed out.

Actually, they are not the only ones who are so nervous. In this room, there are more than 20 teenagers and girls of the same age as Liu brother. With tension.

Most of the hunting in the wolf clan is done by hunters, but if a large group of prey is found, and the more than twenty hunters and their children in the clan together are not enough, they will gather such a group of hunters. Clan-wide hunting. Adult men, women willing to participate, and young adults are the essential force.

Although Shen Zhu and the others have learned martial arts since childhood, they have never had the opportunity to fight in person. This is also the first time they have gone hunting for the whole clan since they were adults, and they are nervous.

Brother Liu was the only one who wasn't nervous in this room where the rookies gathered. He kept jumping around, pointing at this and comforting the other. He has been with hunters all these years, and hunting is easier than anything else.

"What's the big deal, isn't it just hunting! Last time we went to fight gophers, I got such a big one!" , but pure white, very rare, it is said that you can get the silk that can be exchanged for half a car on the ground! Shen Zhu, next time you go to the ground to do business, help me get it and see what price it can be sold for.”

"Really."

"You killed it!"

"When?"

"Why did I lie to you!" Brother Liu was triumphant.

"Brother Liu, you are still the best!" Shen Zhu suddenly threw his nervousness out of the sky.

Gu'er pouted: "What is it? It's not righteous, and I didn't call us to go hunting a few times earlier, so I don't get so nervous now."

The friends nodded in agreement: "That's right! If you don't have any loyalty, the white hamster skin will be confiscated. It's your apology to change the wine and drink it up."

"I tell you, don't be nervous when you see a gopher..." Brother Liu began to teach everyone his experience. Although what he said was all the old sayings that the elders had said a hundred times, the friends still listened to it with great interest. .

A few of them whispered, but they attracted some unpleasant glances.

Zhigui and Zhike have been sitting in the corner and looking at Brother Liu coldly. They are now doing some teaching work in the school as Suxin students. It made them very proud, and they felt that the eyes of people around them were different. What's more important is that they can now reprimand Brother Liu as adults and teachers, and remind Brother Liu from time to time that his so-called genius is far inferior to the two brothers in terms of spells.

So the current look of Liu brother in front of everyone makes them angry, they can't bear the feeling of Liu brother just passing in one area, and he flew to the front from another place.

But the two brothers were silent, pretending to be neither nervous nor feeling, simmering in their hearts more dissatisfaction with Brother Liu.

It's not just these two brothers who have such thoughts about Brother Liu.

"As expected of Uncle Jing Shi's son, he can go hunting with everyone without even changing his personality - I don't know how many elders will protect him at that time."

"Uncle Jingshi has a lot of students, there are still some left to form a circle to protect him, don't worry!"

"Hahaha, then we have to stay away, don't let everyone mistakenly think that he is a hairy child like him."

"Haha..." Several voices emerged from the crowd, taking sarcasm as a relief in such a tense atmosphere.

Brother Liu raised his eyebrows and sneered at the corners of his mouth, but Ku'er and the others couldn't hold their breath, and went over to the one who spoke the loudest, Brother Liu grabbed him and shook his head: "Now we will meet with them as usual. Those who are laughed at by adults, I will clean them up after hunting."

"Give them some color." Shen Zhu said with her fist clenched.

"That's still worth asking." Brother Liu smiled maliciously.

Of course those teenagers didn't know the plan to stay with him. Seeing that he didn't say anything, they kept talking there.

"Okay! This is going to go hunting, what are you talking about!" Zhu Xuan, who was slightly older than everyone else, stood up and scolded them, "And you, Brother Liu! You stand at the back, Children, don't get in the way of adults, so that everyone will not be distracted from taking care of you later." - Zhu Xuan didn't want to ridicule or look down on Brother Liu like everyone else, he liked to treat him the way adults taught children.

"Humph." Brother Liu shrugged to a few good friends.

"Bang." The door was slammed open, and a group of young people of the same age as the boys and girls in the house swarmed in. They were all hunters' children, and they were the freshmen of this hunt. Wearing their own well-trained weapons, they look confident.

"Brother Liu, why are you hiding here? There are so many things to prepare! Just leave the protection of the newbies to Xiao Jiu and the others!" The leading young Leifeng is tall and stout. , also had a loud voice, slapped Brother Liu and shouted: "This time we will have a showdown!"

"Who's afraid of who?" Brother Liu raised his eyebrows, "Don't forget, I still won a ground python from you!"

"I'll pass you by this time!"

"Compare to know!"

The two teenagers each raised their necks and slapped their palms hard, and the surrounding partners babbled and coaxed, and they immediately brought vitality to the tense room.

"Don't be nervous, it's okay if you can't catch the prey. It's a different business. Without Shenzhu, we can't sell the hunting. If there is no cake, where will our armor come from." He patted Shen Zhu, patted the cake with one hand and said loudly to everyone, "So brother Liu and I will fight everyone's share back together. Then we will share the meat and drink, there is nothing to be afraid of!"

His words immediately caused a cheer, and everyone began to chat and laugh, and the atmosphere became lively. The group of young hunters interspersed among everyone, pointing at this, comforting and comforting that. Facing these peers, everyone relaxed a lot. Even those who provoked Brother Liu did not dare to make a sound when they saw that there were many immature boys and girls in this gang of wolves and tigers.

An adult earth wolf pushed in the door and shouted loudly: "Brother Liu, come out, Chongyi's son is ill, and can't come today, you go to join the former team instead of him - pay attention to the search, but now Don't just focus on fighting for the prey, you know?"

"I'm going to the front team!" Brother Liu jumped onto the roof.

Leifeng raised his hand when asked, "I, I'll go with Brother Liu!"

"Leifeng..." The adult earth wolf looked at him up and down, "You are the most experienced of the little brothers... (Leifeng raised his chest), then the task of taking care of these newbies will be handed over to you. Well, do it well!"

"Ah..." Leifeng's jaw dropped.

"Hahahaha," Brother Liu laughed, went out and ran happily, waiting for Leifeng to beat his hands from behind and shouted, "It's not fair, Brother Liu, come back for me, I'll change with you!" He ran away early No shadow.

This time, the wolves are out to hunt a large group of gophers. There are more than 50 gophers in this group, and they appeared in this neighborhood not long ago. They live in groups less than 100 miles away from the town of the wolf clan. Gophers generally live in families. The most common group is three or five. , there are only 20 up and down at most, and even the old people in the clan have never heard of such a large group of rats. This season is the time when the gopher's fur is thick and the meat tastes the most delicious. It is also an important time for the earth wolf clan to trade with the ground. Therefore, the clan people are ready to conduct a large-scale hunting and reserve the winter meat at one time.

The forward team has seven or eight wolves, which are not many, but they are tasked with searching for prey and commanding the overall situation. They are the most important part of the hunting team. Lead, this time, because Jingshi has to take care of those young girls, it was replaced by other soldiers. Brother Liu was also arranged in it. Letting him take the opportunity to learn the experience is one of them. The main thing is that everyone is confident that Brother Liu can stay in Jingshi when he is not there. In this case, it will play a big role for the striker team.

Now the members of the forward team have turned into wolves (dogs?), galloping across the ground without any passages. Although Brother Liu was extremely excited, he remained calm and always ran at a slow pace. In the middle of the team, neither rushed to the front without being in the limelight, nor did they fall behind to become a burden to everyone.

When they were about to reach the range of the gophers, the wolves slowed down together. A spy probably felt that there was a murderous intention that he liked, and hid in a hole and looked at it. The wolves don't like this kind of monster that can fight, and they don't want him to appear in the hunt that will be alive, so one of the wolves waved his hand and released a flying knife, nailing the spy to death. in the hole.

"Go and bring him here, it's a prey anyway." An adult earth wolf said to Brother Liu.

Brother Liu is the only child in the team, so he naturally has to obey the orders of all the adults. He nodded and ran towards Ai Ru. When he picked up the spy and threw it into the bag he was carrying, he heard the sound of "Kaka" and "Kaka" not far away. At this time, the team of the wolves had already passed by, and there was a rock layer containing metallic minerals between the cave where Jiru hid just now and them. This kind of rock formation is inaccessible to them, just like the creatures living in the air facing the mountains. At this time, Brother Liu was standing on the left side of this "⌒" shaped rock formation, and the wolves had gone around and walked. On the other side, the voice came from the front of the rock formation, out of reach of Brother Liu's eyes.

"Go after everyone or go and see?" - Brother Liu took a second to make a decision on this question. He lifted his forefoot, changed from a "dog" shape back to a demon shape, and slipped past the rock formation with very light steps.

Brother Liu walked more than ten steps, stopped and listened again, looking for the voice. Sure enough, after a while, a very soft voice came again, and Brother Liu was even quick to distinguish the soft sound of "Zheng" , which comes out when the sword is sheathed.

"Who's there?" Brother Liu's vigilance suddenly rose.

There are not many races that can move freely in the land. Although monsters and human warlocks with powerful spells can also use the earthwork to sneak into the ground and use spells and magic weapons underground, they can come and go freely, and even use physical weapons. Yes, there are still only the races that live in the earth. And in the country of Qingqiu, there are only two such races—earth wolves and no wounds.

The warriors and even the teenagers of the earth wolf tribe have joined this savage hunt. It is impossible for anyone to use weapons in this place at this time. Will the one there be an uninjured one?

Brother Liu knew from a young age how cruel and terrible an enemy Wushang was, but he had only seen this kind of thing from the illusions and pictures of magic, and he never imagined that one day he would meet a Wushang narrowly.

Under the land of the land of Qingqiu, there are only two outcomes of the encounter between Wushang and the Earth Wolf, one of them dies or both perishes.

Brother Liu doesn't know if he can hear the message he is sending to the clansmen of the forward team, and he doesn't know how many uninjured people in front of him are. He clenched his fists tightly, and with his breath, rubbed forward little by little, and finally stuck to the rock formation, and looked out.

Under the rock formation in front, a Wushang was standing next to two dead gophers, checking his prey. Although Brother Liu saw Wushang for the first time, his human-shaped appearance, purple head , the pale skin and the scales on the back of his hands indicate his species. This made Brother Liu stand up even the hair on his neck. He carefully observed the surroundings and found no other injuries.

Then there is only one enemy.

Liu brother thought to himself.

If he wants to catch up and tell the people the news now, he has to go around the entire rock formation, and by the time he finishes delivering the news, the uninjured is likely to be gone - this is just a better idea, and worse, why Will there be no damage here? This place is so close to the earth wolf clan, the woundless should know very well that they are not welcome here, what is he doing here? Not just to hunt two gophers, right? If the other party has some conspiracy... Brother Liu shuddered.

Alive!

After thinking about it, a thought popped into his mind.

Doesn't the opponent know the difference in strength compared to you? Brother Liu is not arrogant, he is very clear that his martial arts are on a par with the adult men in his clan, and the two clans, the Dilang and Wushang, have been fighting openly and secretly for thousands of years, and they are still indistinguishable. The strength is about the same. Thinking of it this way, you are confident in martial arts, but what about spells? Brother Liu was shocked to realize that over the years, he had neglected too much magic.

The martial arts are comparable, and the spells are not as good as the opponent's words... Brother Liu is thinking, fast attack, so that he will not have time to use the ineffective spells. Judging from the length of this rock formation, the clansmen should be almost at the end. If they find that they are not following, they will definitely walk towards them from the other end to greet them, right? At that time, the sound of fighting will definitely attract them, and then everyone will swarm up... He is so wishful thinking, biting his lip, and bowing, ready to take a shot at that innocent person at any time.

Woundless has put two gophers into a bag (a bag made of magic, which can hold hundreds of times more items without increasing the weight, which is often carried by hunters and clansmen), and He hung the bag around his waist, patted it, and was ready to go.

"No injury! Die!" Brother Liu shouted, jumping out and rushing towards Wu Shang - even though he was an enemy of life and death, Brother Liu still didn't want to plot against the opponent, so he shouted in advance.

His shout made the other party turn around - this Wushang had already discovered the sneaky earth wolf behind him, and planned to give him some color the moment the other party shot, but the other party He didn't plot against himself, and after listening to the shout, the Earth Wolf was still a teenager—"He's about the same age as that kid..."—The Wushang sighed like this, and turned to face Brother Liu. The attack left a bit of leeway when he fought back.

With the uninjured wave of his hand, an electric light came out between him and Brother Liu, knocking Brother Liu back with a somersault. Brother Liu stayed calm in the face of danger, rolled back and rolled in the air, and immediately took a precautionary posture when he landed on the ground unharmed.

Wu Shang and Brother Liu looked at each other face to face.

For the first time in his life, Brother Liu saw Wushang as an old man. From the wrinkles on his face and back, and the look in his eyes, it could be seen that he was very old. Brother Liu had just seen the opponent's powerful spells, of course he didn't dare to make trouble, and stared at the opponent with all his attention. And this Wushang didn't know what he was thinking, and looked at the earth wolf boy in front of him thoughtfully. Brother Liu didn't dare to move first, and he didn't attack without getting hurt, so they stayed there forever.

"Earth Wolf," Wushang suddenly asked, "Your name?"

"I'm Brother Liu, the son of Jingshi, the first master of the Earth Wolf clan - Wushang, and I'll report your name. I don't kill nameless enemies." He learned the words from the book. He said, and put on a pair of generals who shouted in front of the battle: "The people who come here are called by their first names, and this general will not kill no-ones!", but his nondescript answer and his unconcealed nervousness made the other party more and more nervous. He understood that he was a kid who had never been on the battlefield.

"Earth wolves are getting worse and worse, even letting children go to the battlefield..." Wushang didn't answer Brother Liu's question, but instead said to himself.

"To deal with you, the children of the earth wolf clan are enough!" Brother Liu said loudly.

"Haha, isn't it?" Wushangfei didn't feel angry, but instead twitched his beard and laughed, "You are an ambitious child!"

"The children of the earth wolf clan are all ambitious!"

"If that's the case, the Wushang clan would have been wiped out by you long ago... All of them are ambitious..." Wushang said this, suddenly jumped forward and landed in front of Brother Liu. Brother Liu didn't have time to think about it, he raised his claws and grabbed at him, Wushang's left hand supported Brother Liu's grasp, and he shouted loudly, "Disease!" A white light shot out from his right finger. Brother Liu gritted his teeth and didn't dodge, instead he swung his left paw against the opponent, and his right paw took the opponent's chest. Even if you are hit by the opponent's spell, you will also leave some scars on the opponent's body.

After the flash, Brother Liu stood safe and sound, but he held his chest and stepped back, blood dripping from his fingers, "Okay, I know that there is room for you when you shoot, okay!" He praised him like this. Brother Zhiliu, slowly backed away, and suddenly disappeared.

Long time after disappearing without injury, Brother Liu was able to move from the claws and lunges that he had been maintaining. He stood up straight, twisted his stiff neck and looked behind him.

A snake tens of meters long, the thickness of a bucket, and with ears is twisting and struggling behind Brother Liu, but the injury at seven inches is so severe that it will not move after a while.

The mantis catching the cicada~IndoMTL.com~ The oriole was behind, Brother Liu quietly looked at the harmless, and when he was focused on attacking the harmless, this earth-turning snake followed behind him, trying to make this Earth wolf boy as a good meal.

The innocuous spell is aimed at this snake.

After Brother Liu made his move, he felt that the opponent's target was not himself, so he retracted the attack in time. He only scratched the innocent flesh and did not cause him more damage. That's why the Innocent praised him.

Brother Liu looked blankly at the snake corpse on the ground, and then looked at the place where it disappeared without injury.

The injury is not serious, how could he just escape? And why did he save himself? He didn't feel the danger behind him at all. If he was attacked by the soil-turning snake and Wushang, he would surely die. Why did this Wushang give up such a good opportunity, instead of trying to save himself when he was caught? Brother Liu even had a feeling that he was completely capable of evading his own grasp while killing the soil-turning snake with his innocuous strength. It was as if he was deliberately testing how he would shoot. What will happen if you plan to dig out the opponent's heart and continue to attack? Brother Liu looked at the dead snake at his feet.

He's been standing there for a long time, full of things he doesn't understand.
