C66 (1/2)
Early in the morning, Chu Feng woke up from his meditation. At this moment, the little wolf also opened its hazy eyes. It was using its front paws to wipe its eyes. It looked extremely adorable.
Chu Feng smiled and patted the little wolf's head. He did not seem to be in love with it at all.
Suddenly, the wolf cub broke free from Chu Feng's embrace and jumped off the tree. Chu Feng was taken aback by this. However, when he saw the wolf cub standing firmly on the ground, he could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
The wolf cub whimpered at Chu Feng, turned around, and ran away.
Chu Feng looked at the wolf cub's leaving figure with a bit of confusion, not knowing what to do.
Could it be that this little guy was going to leave like this?
For a moment, his heart ached.
But the thought that it had its choice made it clear that it should have its freedom.
But Chu Feng still waited on the tree for a long time, waiting for its return.
It was noon. Chu Feng floated down from the tree and laughed at himself. ”It seems that I am still a person after all!” He was still a little disappointed when he still hadn't returned even though he was at the bottom of the line.
At this moment, the sunlight shone down onto the earth and dispelled the trace of haze in Chu Feng's heart.
He took a deep breath. After the morning treatment, his body had fully recovered. He sighed and said, ”I didn't expect the prehistoric era to be so good …” Before Chu Feng even finished speaking, the sound of wolf howls rang out next to his ears. He couldn't help but furrow his brows as he looked around. He noticed that there were quite a few wolves under the tree. He couldn't help but ask where so many wolves had come from. However, in the blink of an eye, he was connected to the cub.
The ten wolves stopped at the place where Chu Feng had fought the four wolves yesterday.
The lead wolf raised its head and intentionally glanced at the tree that Chu Feng was sitting on. Then, it howled and ran away.
After the wolf had left, Chu Feng floated down from the tree.
After landing, he could not help but feel that his clothes were somewhat wet.
Just now, the wolf tightly glanced at Chu Feng and already gave him such a huge pressure. If they were to fight, perhaps … Upon thinking of this, Chu Feng felt a bit of lingering fear.
But in the blink of an eye, he seemed to recall something. Chu Feng couldn't help but ask himself a bit panickedly, ”Just now, didn't they leave towards the direction in which the young wolf left earlier?”
At that moment, Chu Feng was a bit speechless. He muttered, ”Just what did that little guy provoke? Why are there so many mature wolves chasing it?!”
There was no lack of experts among them. For example, the wolf leader earlier was at least several levels taller than Chu Feng. Otherwise, Chu Feng would not have been so scared to the point of perspiration all over his body just because of his gaze.
Now, Chu Feng finally understood why the wolf cub had left like that in the morning. So this little fellow was afraid of implicating him! For a moment, he couldn't help but feel moved.
He didn't expect that the little fellow would be so understanding. Looks like he didn't save it yesterday for nothing.
But in the blink of an eye, Chu Feng started to worry for the life of the wolf cub.
Finally, Chu Feng helplessly smiled and said, ”It's better to let nature take its course!” After all, natural selection!
After tidying up his mood, Chu Feng headed towards the north. It had already been two days, and if he could not come tomorrow, the blacksmith would likely be worried.
However, when Chu Feng went north, the wolf cub was lingering on the edge of life and death.
At this moment, it was drinking water by the river, trying to ease the anxiety of the scorching sun. However, it did not know that danger was approaching it step by step. Feeling full, the wolf cub could not help but lie down by the river to rest. After all, he had been on the run for the whole morning, so he was a little tired.
Suddenly, the wolf cub stood up and looked at the grass warily.
As he looked at the green grass, his body couldn't help but tremble. His legs couldn't help but retreat one step at a time.
”Aooo.”
A burst of fierce wolf howls sounded in the forest.
On the other hand, the wolf cub was suddenly in a bit of a panic, but he quickly made his choice.
He then jumped into the river and dived into the water.
In its memory, water can isolate the smell, so it chose to enter the water.
Not long after the young wolf jumped into the water, a few robust adult wolves ran out from the grass.
Seeing that his target had disappeared, the leader of the pack howled twice.
The wolves following behind him heard the sound and immediately scattered.
As the young wolf was fleeing for its life, Chu Feng was leisurely enjoying the scenery around him. He didn't know that the little guy he only met once was lingering on the edge of death.
He instantly recalled what the book had said: There are extremely rare heavenly materials in this primitive world.
At that moment, Chu Feng couldn't help feeling a bit of that. Along the way, he would spend most of his time studying strange plants, asking himself if they were legendary treasures.
However, in the end, Chu Feng had to give up on those thoughts. The reason for that was because they did not have the Ancient Era's Beast Overseers beside them like the books had said.
Many years later, when Chu Feng became a great alchemist and recalled how he treated the dogtail grass as a treasure when he was young, he couldn't help but find it a bit funny.
As they walked northward, the sun gradually set.
Chu Feng was only able to find a place to rest for the night. After all, it was not wise to travel at night through this vast and unfamiliar land.
The sun had set and Chu Feng woke up from his meditation. He felt a bit of hunger in his stomach and he couldn't help but go towards the stream. Today, the Lunar Entrance was very dark, and it was hazy and a bit dim.
Just as Chu Feng was getting close to the brook, the howls of the wolves suddenly came through, disrupting Chu Feng's train of thought.
At that moment, he seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly moved closer to the voice.
But at the end, Chu Feng was disappointed. After the howling of the wolf just now, the ground became peaceful again. He himself could not determine which direction.
The disappointed Chu Feng couldn't help walking everywhere, hoping to discover something.
However, the surroundings were completely empty. Nothing could be seen, so the feeling of loss grew even stronger.
After walking along the river for some time, he didn't notice the howls of the wolves and couldn't help but focus on the herring in the river.
