Chapter 116 Dog
At dusk, Li Huowang walked silently on a winding forest path. According to the position obtained from Anci'an, the end of this direction was an endless mountain range.
And I found that Nestorian Jiao lived in these mountains.
Ever since he completely woke up from Qingfeng Temple, he has been living with other people, and now he is suddenly a little uncomfortable being alone.
"It's so quiet." Li Huowang muttered to himself as he looked at the sparse woods around him. The further he walked, the barren the land looked.
The silence around him gradually calmed down his increasingly impatient heart.
He raised his hands and stretched hard. Li Huowang sighed and raised his right foot again.
As he hurried, it got dark. Li Huowang took out a fluorescent stone from his arms and continued to move forward with the help of light.
But soon, he put away the fluorescent stone again, because the moon came out, and it was cloudless and the moon was very big today.
The bright moonlight illuminated the forest road clearly.
Under the white moonlight, Li Huowang continued on his way alone. After walking for a day, his legs became swollen.
"If I can survive, I have to learn to ride a horse." Li Huowang thought to himself.
Until the full moon hung high in the sky, I finally got tired. He leaned against the tree next to him, picked up the hard steamed bun and started to chew it, planning to eat a few bites before going to sleep.
Suddenly, Li Huowang's rising and falling cheeks stopped. Staring at a point in the darkness, he noticed something.
Not only his sense of pain and taste, Li Huowang's other senses are also gradually surpassing those of ordinary people. For example, Li Huowang clearly felt that he was being stared at by something. "Who's there!!"
After he said this, a yellowish thing emerged timidly from the forest.
It was a big country dog with white legs and yellow hair on its body. It looked in very bad condition. It had lost a lot of fur, and there were still ticks hanging on its body. Its body was even more scrawny, and its ribs were clearly visible.
"Dog?" Li Huowang looked around at the desolate land around him. No matter how he looked, it didn't look like there would be a dog.
The native dog stared at the cold steamed bun in Li Huowang's hand, licked it again and again, and actually started to wag its tail at him.
"I don't care what you become, get away!"
Li Huowang, who frowned slightly, patted the "Da Qian Lu" with his hand.
Regardless of whether it is a real dog or a fake dog, he just wants to go his own way and does not want to cause any complications.
The native dog took a few steps back timidly, but it still didn't give up, and its drooping tail wagged even more frequently.
The bronze bell shook violently, and the harsh ringing sounded instantly, and the native dog was frightened and ran away.
Seeing the dog running into the woods, Li Huowang was about to put away the bell, but his expression immediately froze. "Damn! Why is it at this time!"
In the dark forest, the native dog drooped his ears and cautiously poked his head out from under the leaves again. Then he saw an incomprehensible scene in front of him.
The man sitting under the tree had a friendly smile on his face, raising his head and talking to the bright full moon in the sky.
"Dad, are you here too? Well, I know, I'm fine, I'm very fine."
"Yes, I know, you two are not hallucinations, you are not. My mind was a little confused before, but now... I can tell the difference."
After the native dog wandered around for a long time and saw that the other party did not show any hostility towards him, he turned his attention to the steamed buns that were half rolled on the ground.
It poked its head carefully and touched it. It opened its mouth and was about to pick it up. The words of the person in front of it frightened it and retracted it.
"Mom, I don't eat oranges. Don't untie me. It's fine to have your hands tied."
"By the way, has the gold been exchanged for money? Have you paid off all the debts? Oh, that's good."
"Mom, you have a lot of gray hair, go and dye it. Didn't you like to perm your hair in the past?" Li Huowang, who smiled slightly, raised his hand and touched the moon hanging in the sky.
"Hey, don't ask. The gold is clean. Was the jade pendant also sold? No? Why not?"
The native dog carefully wandered around for two more times. After realizing that the other party really wasn't paying attention to it, it cautiously moved forward again, quickly picked up the steamed bun, turned around and ran away.
Because I was really hungry, I ran into the woods. The native dog ate so fast that it choked.
After it calmed down, it came to the roadside again and looked over there eagerly.
The dog's keen sense of smell made it aware that there was food, even meat, in the other person's bag!
"Sell that jade pendant and buy our house back. Only when you have your own house can you have a family."
"No, you really don't need to leave me any treatment expenses. Just find a place and tie me up with an iron chain."
"Mom, I'm not talking crazy. Hey, don't cry. I'm really not sick now."
"Ugh~" The native dog tilted its head towards the weird Li Huowang. It really couldn't understand what the other person was doing.
Approaching cautiously again, it began to crawl in front of Li Huowang and began to wag its tail continuously. "Woo~"
At this moment, the native dog noticed that the other party suddenly noticed him, and his tail wagged even more frequently.
"Haha, who gave this doll as a gift? It's so ugly, it looks like a dog. Dog...wait!! There's a problem! The dog is still there!"
Li Huowang, who had been calm just now, suddenly stood up, with a distorted expression and yelled hysterically at the local dog: "I told you to get away! Do you want to die?"
The native dog was frightened, and with a swish, it got into the forest.
When the timid cat cautiously poked its head out of the forest again, it saw the other person talking to the moon in the sky again with a guilty look on its face.
"Mom, don't be afraid. This has nothing to do with you. I'm not sick. I just have some things to deal with over there."
"I'm really not sick. Why don't you leave first and come back to visit me next time. I need to deal with things over there."
"Okay, I know. There's nothing over there. Yes, that's right. It's all hallucinations over there. I will actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment."
"Woof~" The native dog shouted to the Taoist priest in red.
Li Huowang became alert instantly and looked around without focus, "No, there is movement."
He slowly pulled out his sword and looked around him warily.
His face was full of alertness, and then his expression turned irritable.
"I can't explain it! I can't explain it either! You go first, you go first!!"
Li Huowang's anxious shouts spread far and wide.
Li Huowang stayed up all night that night, hallucinating as much as possible and using other methods to guard against possible threats in reality.
But after the hallucination gradually disappeared, he found that his method had no effect.
He was holding the native dog from last night and standing in the middle of a small river. The dog was licking his chin affectionately.
A lot of things must have happened last night that I didn't know about.
"Hey...it seems like there is no shortage of people next to me." Li Huowang walked towards the shore with the dog in his arms.
