Chapter 181
"Of course wolves are not dogs." Mo Ke felt that Zhou Qi's question was very unprofessional.
"Wolves are much more ferocious than dogs!"
Zhou Qi smiled, and Tang Yu'an's eyes lit up slightly, and he quickly put on the special title of "all dogs".
Dog Lover: Dogs will always love you. Gain a positive impression from all dogs. The lower your intelligence, the higher the bonus. Dogs will not attack you.
Logically speaking, wolves should belong to the Canidae family. After all, dogs are domesticated from wolves. The original form of dogs like Yuanbao is very similar to wolves.
So the halo of being a “dog lover” should work, right?
Regardless of whether it works or not, it’s always a good idea to wear it!
They rested for two hours. Tang Yu'an felt that the power of wind had recovered and he could mobilize wind energy normally, so he continued to set off.
Although the rest time was long, Mo Ke still preferred to be carried by the two teenagers rather than going down the mountain on foot, and he also took the opportunity to catch up on his sleep during their rest time.
Next time they arrive at the grassland, he will no longer be just a guide, but will really play a role!
Mok is full of confidence.
Because the lightness technique can last for five hours, when they set out again, the effect of the lightness technique was still there, so even if they were not flying, they were still very fast.
Feeling the effect of being as light as a swallow, Mo Ke just wanted to say: This is too cool!
Soon they passed through the woods and entered the grassland. This vast plain was being scorched by the sun.
Apparently, the clouds formed by the water vapor in the deserted city were blocked by the mountains and did not drift here, so the temperature difference between day and night on the grassland is still very large.
However, the plants growing on this plain have survived after years of adapting to the environment, and they are growing well. It is green everywhere, not a bare desert.
The wind on the grassland was very strong and hot, which made it uncomfortable.
"Let's go, and you must follow me closely from now on!" Mok said seriously.
Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi looked at each other, not knowing what to say, so they temporarily followed Mo Ke and ran quickly.
After entering the grassland, Mo Ke became obviously nervous.
Tang Yu'an followed closely behind him. He could clearly feel that, just as Mo Ke said, the wind energy on this grassland was indeed very chaotic.
He felt it was difficult to mobilize the power of the wind. Even he felt the same way, and Zhou Qi, who was slightly inferior to him in flying control, was naturally even more so.
So the two teenagers finally calmed down and completely gave up the idea of flying.
Anyway, they have saved a lot of time from the start to here, so this journey should not take five or six days.
Soon, they ran into trouble.
A goshawk roared past overhead, stirring up huge gusts of wind. If Tang Yu hadn't stabilized the wind energy, the three of them would have been blown away.
The huge eagle flapped its wings hard, and seeing that they were not affected at all and were running farther and farther away, it quickly stopped using its wind power to chase after them.
But when its eagle eyes swept across the grassland below, it had already lost sight of its prey.
It let out a long and unwilling howl and finally flew away.
In the grass below, Mok lifted a gap in the camouflage cloth on his body, and after seeing the giant eagle fly away, he did not get up immediately.
He took Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi to wait for a while, and sure enough, they saw the giant eagle coming back.
After discovering that there was indeed no trace of prey on the ground, it finally gave up, flapped its wings and flew away to continue looking for the next prey.
"It's safe..." Mo Ke finally took off his disguise and sat up.
"Brother Mo, you are so awesome!" Tang Yu'an said sincerely.
Mo Ke chuckled, "That's because Old Li taught me well. I learned all this from him."
Just as he was about to continue his journey, he saw Tang Yu'an pull out an umbrella from his backpack, and Mo Ke was stunned.
The length of this umbrella... doesn't seem to match this backpack?
Then he saw the young man open the umbrella and said, "Brother Mo, let's hide under the umbrella. This umbrella is also green."
Mo Ke took a look and found that it was indeed the case, but...
"I guess this disguise isn't very effective, is it?"
As soon as he said this, the umbrella in Tang Yu'an's hand shook and almost broke free from Tang Yu'an's hand.
You actually said that the camouflage effect of the shadow umbrella is not good?
Umbrella is furious.jpg
Fortunately, Tang Yu'an grabbed it in time, touched its ribs soothingly, and then opened it up to let Mo Ke come under the umbrella.
"Just try it and you'll know." Tang Yu'an said with a smile.
Mo Ke hesitated for a moment, but nodded.
Teach people through experience, and they will learn it once.
This was the principle that Old Li had taught him before, so even though he disagreed with Tang Yu'an's approach, he decided not to stop him.
Anyway, he is confident that he can cover them when something goes wrong, so it’s not a big problem!
"Then let's go."
They set off again. Since all three of them had to be under the umbrella, they couldn't run like before. But because they walked in a swagger, their speed was not much slower than before when they had to stop and go to be careful of danger.
During the journey, Mo Ke was hesitant to speak.
Because Zhou Qi was the tallest among the three of them, he held the umbrella and naturally controlled the pace of their advance.
Mo Ke had never walked around the wild so brazenly before! He felt like his scalp was about to explode, as if he would be attacked by mutant creatures at any time.
However……
The journey was smooth and peaceful. Occasionally, a rabbit or mouse would peek out of its hole, but it would just peek in at the hole very peacefully, as if it couldn't see them.
Mo Ke could only keep the words in his heart and wait until he encountered danger before speaking.
Finally, after advancing for two or three hours, they encountered another mutant giant eagle.
It flew from afar, and its figure was getting closer and closer.
Mo Ke subconsciously wanted to lie down, but was pulled by Zhou Qi, and then the three of them just stood there motionless.
The goshawk appeared above their heads and just... flew away like that?
Mo Ke was a little surprised.
Is this mutant giant eagle blind?
This umbrella is dark green, so it's pretty conspicuous on the grassland, right? Even if it doesn't look conspicuous from the top, you can still see it from the side, right?
How did it fly past like that?
"Let's go." Zhou Qi said.
"Oh, okay..."
Mok followed the two teenagers closely. For the rest of the day, apart from acting as a guide, he still did not play any special role.
At night, they found a pile of stones and set up camp.
Looking back on the journey since setting out, Mok still feels like he is dreaming. Is it a little too smooth?
Tang Yu'an had already put away the shadow umbrella, and then took out the magic tent and set it up.
Mo Ke took Zhou Qi to hunt and caught two rabbits and mice. He wrapped one in mud and stuffed it directly into the fire, and simply processed the other one and roasted it on the fire.
After Meimei had a nice dinner, Mo Ke went into the tent to sleep. It was Tang Yu'an and the others' turn to keep watch tonight.
"You can sleep in the tent, I'll keep watch."
"I don't."
Tang Yu'an curled up beside Zhou Qi, leaning against him and taking a nap with his eyes closed. Emerald was placed at his feet and was replenishing water in the glass.
The grassland at night has a vast view and you can see the twinkling stars in the sky.
It was not until the middle of the night that Mo Ke emerged from the tent, refreshed and saying, "It really is more convenient to travel with companions!"
Of course, you have to choose reliable companions.
"You guys go to sleep, I'll be watching from now on." Mok sat down by the fire.
"Thank you for your hard work."
Mok waved his hand.
Zhou Qi woke up Tang Yu'an, then went into the tent with him. When they returned to the cabin, the little black ball came to greet them.
[The magic core is greeting you: Master, welcome back]
Tang Yu'an responded, smiled, and stretched out his finger to poke its soft ball.
Afterwards, I had some midnight snack with Zhou Qi and went to bed. When I woke up in the morning, it was already past eight o'clock.
Mo Ke saw them coming out and greeted them cheerfully.
"Brother Mo, why didn't you wake us up today?" Tang Yu'an looked at the sun above his head.
At this time yesterday, they had been out for two hours.
Mo Ke chuckled, "We've been walking very fast these past two days. There's no need to rush. It's more important to get enough rest."
After all, in just over a day, they had already traveled half the distance, and if all went well, they should be able to arrive the next day or the day after tomorrow.
Tang Yu'an nodded, and they had breakfast together, packed up their things, and then continued on their journey.
With the shielding umbrella, they didn't encounter any danger along the way, and even when walking, their progress was not slow at all.
Just when Mo Ke thought they could reach Lanhu Town safely this time, they had to stop halfway.
It was already afternoon, and several figures appeared in front, some lying down and some standing.
Mo Ke's face changed and he quickly said, "It's a pack of wolves! Let's get out of here and take a detour."
Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi nodded, not daring to be arrogant.
They began to take a detour, hoping to stay away from the wolves, but before they could get far, the wolves suddenly started howling.
At the same time, the wind, which had been relatively calm, suddenly became violent. Zhou Qi could not hold the umbrella in his hand under the howling wind. Seeing that the umbrella was about to be overturned, Zhou Qi did not dare to force it and subconsciously let go.
The umbrella was blown away!
"Umbrella!"
The incident happened suddenly. Tang Yu'an was stunned and chased after him.
Mo Ke and Zhou Qi's faces changed drastically because... the wolves discovered them!
“Ouch—”
“Ouch—”
The wolves howled and rushed towards the invaders.
Two of them seemed to have special speed. In just a few breaths, they had closed the distance and were about to knock them down.
Zhou Qi and Mo Ke quickly ran. He glanced at Tang Yu'an in the distance, and finally gritted his teeth and ran in the opposite direction.
An An had an umbrella and a map, so she could find them quickly even if they got lost.
It is safer to run separately in this situation.
Mo Ke ran for his life, even though he found that no matter how hard he tried, he could not outrun Zhou Qi beside him.
This tall and thin boy, despite running so fast, looked so relaxed. He even took out a...
Uh, cat toy?
"Ring, ring, ring—ring, ring, ring—"
As the bells rang, more prairie wolves chased after them.
On the other side, Tang Yu'an finally caught the umbrella that was blown away, but even he couldn't control the fierce and violent wind.
To prevent the umbrella from being blown away again, he had no choice but to put it into his personal storage, then turned around and tried to find Zhou Qi, but...
At some point, the wolves caught up with him, and three of them were surrounding him.
However, they did not attack him immediately. Instead, they observed him cautiously, with vigilance and scrutiny in their eyes.
When Tang Yu'an looked at one of them, it suddenly wagged its tail and stuck out its tongue at him.
Then it was slapped by the wolf next to it, which was at least one-third its size bigger, and it immediately ran away whimpering.
Tang Yu'an couldn't help but look at the big wolf.
Its size is smaller than Yuanbao and the others' original form, but it seems to be a size larger than other wolves.
The wolf has gray-black hair on its back, and snow-white hair from its belly to its chest. It has a pair of sharp black eyes that are full of majesty and sharpness.
It looks very fierce and seems like someone who is not easy to mess with. Could it be the wolf king?
Tang Yu'an took a tentative step forward, but the wolf did not move. It stood there, looking at him with fierce eyes.
"Hello, I'm just passing by... I don't mean to disturb you..."
Through interacting with Black Pearl and Yuanbao, Tang Yu'an realized that these mutant creatures were actually quite intelligent and could even understand human language.
What's more, judging from the attitude of the wolf that was just driven away, his halo as a dog lover should be able to play a role.
That's why Tang Yu'an had the courage to communicate with the wolf.
"I, I'll go find my companions first..." Tang Yu'an said, and was about to bypass the wolf to find Zhou Qi.
But it stopped me after I took only two steps.
Tang Yu'an looked at it, then looked at the other wolf. When he looked over, the wolf couldn't help but wag its tail.
Just as it was about to come closer to Tang Yu'an, it was slapped by its leader and ran away whimpering like the previous one.
After his subordinates had all run away, the Wolf King looked at Tang Yu'an and suddenly stretched out his tongue to lick him.
Tang Yu'an couldn't help but squint his eyes and "enjoyed" the wolf king washing his face. Then he saw the wolf king lying down in front of him.
He couldn't help but blink and asked, "Do you want to carry me?"
The wolf king nodded humanely.
Tang Yu'an really wanted to say no, after all, his pet slot was full and he couldn't take it in as a pet anymore.
When facing uncontrollable situations, it is better to be careful when facing mutant creatures.
But when he looked at the wolf king's dark eyes, he didn't dare to say no and could only climb onto the wolf's back carefully.
"Can you take me to my companions?"
As soon as Tang Yu'an finished speaking, the wolf king rushed out with him on his back. It controlled the wind and made all wind energy obey its command.
Tang Yu'an, lying on the wolf's back, seemed to have realized something.
But soon, the Wolf King took him to catch up with Zhou Qi, Mo Ke and others.
At this time, the prairie wolf in the front had just caught up with Zhou Qi, and was then attracted by the dog frisbee thrown by Zhou Qi.
"An An!"
After Zhou Qi threw the frisbee, he caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eye. He turned his head to look and almost tripped over a stone and fell to the ground.
Mo Ke quickly supported him, then looked in the direction he was looking, and almost collapsed as well.
Why is Xiao An sitting on the wolf king's back?
The wolf king, who was originally carrying Tang Yu'an towards this side, was also attracted by the dog's frisbee and turned around to chase after it.
Unfortunately, he was a step too late, and the dog frisbee had already been caught by the prairie wolf that had almost bitten Zhou Qi before.
After being bitten, the dog's frisbee's disorienting effect lost its effect, and the other wolves, including the wolf king, woke up.
They braked suddenly and almost had a collision, but fortunately they stopped safely in the end.
Then, the Wolf King watched helplessly as his most capable subordinate slowly turned into a... little wolf cub after biting the frisbee?
"Woof woof woof!" The puppy's childish voice rang out.
“…”
It turned out to be a puppy!
This scene was so magical that the wolves immediately gave up looking for trouble with Zhou Qi and the others, and surrounded the puppy, sniffing and looking at it.
The scent was correct, it was indeed their companions!
But why did it become so small? This aura should be very powerful...
The frisbee that the puppy had been holding in its mouth had fallen down. It looked at its companions around it who had become extremely tall, making a whining sound, looking weak, helpless and pitiful.
Then, a female wolf bit its neck and ran towards the wolf den with it in its mouth.
The wolves then remembered that they were chasing invaders, and quickly looked at Zhou Qi and Mo Ke, baring their teeth and ready to continue the pursuit.
Tang Yu'an was startled and quickly patted the wolf king's head, whispering to it, "They are my companions. We have no ill intentions. Can you please not hurt them?"
The wolf king looked at the wolves who were getting excited again and howled at them.
The wolves that had surrounded Zhou Qi and Mo Ke suddenly stopped and looked at their leader hesitantly.
The wolf king gave them a cold look, and the wolves quickly tucked their tails between their legs and ran towards the den.
Seeing this, Tang Yu'an couldn't help but smile.
"Thank you..."
He thanked them and was about to go find Zhou Qi and Mo Ke to meet up, but the wolf king did not run in that direction. Instead, he carried him back.
Tang Yu'an was nearly knocked to the ground, and quickly hugged the wolf's head to steady himself.
"An An!"
Seeing Tang Yu'an being taken away by the Wolf King, Zhou Qi's face changed slightly. He quickly took Mo Kefei and followed behind them, and picked up the frisbee on the ground.
Mo Ke was in a daze the whole time.
Until Zhou Qi led him closer to the wolf pack, he was so scared that he wanted to scream, but in the end he covered his mouth and managed to control himself.
The wolves didn't seem interested in them and didn't pay any attention to them at all, because they all wagged their tails and headed towards the Wolf King... or Tang Yu'an.
Tang Yu'an lay on the wolf king's back, looking at the increasing number of wolves around him. It would be a lie to say he wasn't afraid.
He just saw that most of them were wagging their tails and sticking out their tongues at him in a very friendly manner. Some of them even squeezed over to sniff him, but were flicked away by the wolf king's tail.
Tang Yu'an was no longer nervous. He turned around and saw that Zhou Qi and Mo Ke were safe and sound, and the last stone in his heart fell to the ground.
But why did the wolf king bring him back to the pack? Was he going to hold him captive and not let him leave?
However, Tang Yu'an soon understood the reason.
There was a strong smell of blood in the air, and the wolf king slowed down.
Tang Yu'an looked forward and saw a wolf about the same size as the wolf king lying on the ground. It was dying, with several hideous wounds from its back to its abdomen, and blood was gushing out.
The wound looked like it was scratched by the giant eagle's sharp claws.
The wolf king bent down slightly to allow Tang Yu'an to crawl to the ground. Then it took a few steps forward, stretched out its tongue and licked the injured wolf's head, as if to comfort it.
Then, it turned around and looked at Tang Yu'an, its dark and deep eyes staring at him, and a hint of pleading gradually emerged.
"Do you want me to save it?" Tang Yu'an asked.
The Wolf King nodded.
"Okay." Tang Yu'an took a few steps forward and came to the injured wolf.
This wolf's fur is lighter in color than the wolf king's, it is silver-gray, and the color of its pupils is also different, it is a very gentle and clear green.
It stared at Tang Yu'an, as if it wanted to wag its tail, but because it was too weak, it only had the strength to move once.
Tang Yu'an felt a little distressed when he saw this, and quickly said, "Drink this first, and I'll bandage you."
He took out the intermediate healing potion, gave the silver wolf two drops, and then took out the healing bandage. However, his strength was too weak, so after obtaining the consent of the wolf king, he called Zhou Qi and Mo Ke to help.
Mok walked through the wolf pack tremblingly, feeling that he had never experienced such an exciting thing since he was born.
Compared to Tang Yu'an, these wolves were not as friendly to Zhou Qi and Mo Ke.
After discovering their presence, it bared its teeth and stared at them vigilantly, with cold eyes, as if it was ready to tear them into pieces at any time.
Although Zhou Qi also felt his scalp tingling, he was so focused on Tang Yu'an that he was not that scared.
When he arrived at Tang Yu'an's side, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. He then took out alcohol to disinfect the silver wolf's wound, then carefully picked up the silver wolf so that Tang Yu'an could wrap the bandage around it.
Mok was very afraid of mutant creatures, so he didn't dare to touch the seriously injured silver wolf.
Looking at the injuries, he definitely won't survive in the wasteland...
Seeing the two young men treating its wounds seriously, Mo Ke couldn't help but pray in his heart that it must not die before they left!
Finally, Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi bandaged Silver Wolf's wounds. They were already exhausted and sweating profusely.
Fortunately, there was an extremely effective healing bandage. After wrapping it a few times and raising its health to over 60%, the Silver Wolf's condition stabilized.
When Tang Yu'an stroked its head and whispered comfort to it, the silver wolf extended its tongue and gently licked Tang Yu'an's hand.
Then it closed its eyes and began to sleep.
After checking its condition, the wolf king raised his head and howled. This time the howl was obviously filled with joy and happiness, and the wind raging in the air became much gentler.
After it howled, the wolves followed suit, howling one after another, celebrating the new life of their companions.
Of course, amidst the howling, there were also one or two childish dog barks.
Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
After the wolf king stopped howling, he came over and rubbed his head against Tang Yu'an. When facing Zhou Qi, his attitude was also much friendlier.
As for Mok... he was completely ignored.
At this time, it was already dark, so Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi decided to spend the night among the wolf pack and see what happened to the silver wolf tomorrow.
After knowing their decision, Mok's face turned pale, but looking at the wolf king who was staring at him hungrily, he swallowed his words of objection.
I feel like I won't be able to sleep tonight...
Tang Yu'an touched the wolf king's head and said to it with a smile: "It's a pity that my pet slot is full... But you probably don't want to leave with me."
"Let me give you a name. How about calling you Obsidian?"
The big tail behind the wolf king lifted up, shook quickly twice, and then stopped quickly.
The author has something to say:
Obsidian: I'm the wolf king, I can't wag my tail at humans! Unless I can't help it...
