C1 (1/2)

In the empty wilderness, even though it was already past winter and spring, the wind still made people feel a chill from their bones. Apart from the clatter of the horses' hooves, the riders were all reluctant to talk.

”Woof woof woof!” ”Woof woof woof woof!”

In the empty wilderness, there was a burst of barking sounds. The people were shocked. It was not because of fear but because of the dog's barking – there were no villages nearby. Furthermore, since the start of the war, there were not many people who could afford to be full. If there were any wild dogs, they would have already been beaten to fill the five viscera temple.

The man at the front reined in his horse and turned to look at a man in the middle, whose head and face were tightly wrapped. The man raised his hand and gestured for him to take a look.

Before he could drive the horse to look, they saw two gray dots rapidly approaching. When they stopped, they saw two animals with black backs, slightly lighter hair than their backs, sharp ears that looked like a dog or a wolf, and a backpack made of some unknown cloth on their back. The bags were bulging with things, and they stopped vigilantly about five to six meters away from them, barking at them.

”Assemble the formation!”

The cavalrymen on horseback quickly formed a formation, and the person in the middle of the formation raised his hands, ”Wait!”

The voice turned out to be a woman. The woman pulled down the scarf that was wrapped around her head, revealing a pretty face. ”This is a domesticated hound.”

Everyone hesitated, but the person who issued the order said, ”General, your subordinate has to wait and see. Although it looks like someone has tamed it, it looks like it's actually a wolf.”

The woman smiled, ”Although I have never seen this kind of dog before, I have still tamed a few hounds. Disregarding the fact that they have something on them and it's not something wild, just based on their eyes and expressions, these two dogs don't have the desire to attack. On the contrary, it seems like they want us to follow them. ”

Everyone observed that the dog did not take an aggressive stance. Its eyes were not as intimidating as the wolf's. On the contrary, it seemed to understand human nature. They could actually see the pleading look in the dog's eyes. He barked a few times at the crowd and then ran back a few steps. Seeing that the crowd didn't move, he turned back and continued shouting, repeating the same thing over and over again.

The crowd obviously had women as their core. Although they felt that what the woman said made sense, they still didn't want to act rashly for their own safety. The woman, on the other hand, insisted on pushing the crowd away and leading the horse to the dog.

Seeing that someone was coming over, the dog continued to run towards the north. From time to time, it would look back and bark a few times, as if it was calling for people to follow it. For a moment, the girl was amazed. She didn't know what this intelligent dog wanted to take her to see.

After following the dog for almost a mile, they could see a blue humanoid figure lying on the ground in the distance. Beside him were two dogs with similar pointy ears and black-backed yellow belly hair. Around them were bags made of unknown material, three big bags and two small bags.

”Woof woof!”

Seeing that someone was coming over, the two dogs that were guarding them barked a few times and ran back and forth around the person they suspected to be their owner. Their tails were anxiously wagging and their voices were shrill and hurried.

”There really is someone taming it!” ”What a good dog!”
