Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 998 The Wolf King Appears
In a large pool of blood, only some broken clothes and a blood-stained baggage remained.A strong and fit giant black wolf came out from the depths of the woods, its satin-like fur shone gorgeously under the moonlight, and its graceful steps carried the aura of a king.

This is a wolf king. It is an upright young man who came here last year.But its strength and resourcefulness are enough to make up for its lack of age, making it win the wolf king in one fell swoop.

When the black forest wolf smelled the smell of human blood, it raised its head to the sky and howled, and its huge wolf claws knocked a wolf with blood on the corner of its mouth to the ground.It doesn't eat people, and it never allows the wolves it leads to harm humans, but today's situation is an accident.

In the past, even if someone got lost on the mountain and strayed into its territory by mistake, it would prevent its wolves from harming humans.It has a feeling in its bones that much, much has been given to it by humans.

When the wolf king walked to the center of the bloodstain, he was slightly puzzled by the burden left behind, and his golden wolf pupils were full of surprise.A wolf can have such expressive expressions that it almost seems like an emotional human being.

The wolf king brushed the burden with his paws, and once again sniffed the air on it with his nose.The contents of the package carried a familiar smell, but this smell was different from the smell of this pool of blood.

The wolf king showed doubts again, and after looking at the pool of blood, he lowered his head and picked up the blood-stained package, jumped a long way in a vertical leap, and then quickly ran down the mountain.

Behind it, a large pack of wolves followed closely.They have no idea where their king is going, and why they are so obsessed with that human burden.

When he ran to the foot of the mountain, the wolf king stopped and searched around with the package in his mouth.Finally, it smelled something, and ran over quickly, put the package aside, and quickly dug under a stone.

But after digging for a while, when it saw a sword stuck underneath, its expressive face was full of doubts again, and then it filled the soil and buried the sword back.

The other Timberwolves gathered around were always puzzled.Their IQs are completely unable to understand the wolf king's intentions, and they can't play other roles except for instinctive obedience and following.

The wolf king looked at the bundle, then lowered his head to sniff the scent extending all the way on the ground, and howled like an order to his pack of wolves.

The wolves were taken aback, looked at each other, then howled at the same time, turned around and ran towards the forest.Soon, the wolves disappeared into the night forest.And there was only the strong black giant wolf left in place.

In those golden wolf pupils, the wildness and bloodthirsty that belonged to wolves disappeared, replaced by the meekness and loyalty buried in the blood.Even the black tail began to bend, and then slowly shook once, twice, and then swung flexibly from side to side.

Wolves don't wag their tails; but dogs wag their tails!
The wolf king shook his tail for a while, picked up the package on the ground again, and then chased after the horseshoe footprints on the ground.Regardless of the darkness of the night and the distance of the journey, it finally found the person it had been looking for.

Xiao Shu'er urged the horse vigorously again and again, letting the night wind keep blowing across his cheeks, causing the wind to sting his wide-open eyes.His heart was originally as calm as night, but the image of blood dripping from his sword kept repeating in his mind.

Fortunately, he didn't do anything after all, otherwise he would have difficulty washing away the self-blame in his heart for the rest of his life.

In the end, the non-stop sprinting made him sweat profusely, making all the bones and muscles in his whole body seem to be broken up.But this kind of fatigue made him feel comfortable instead, as if the pain in his heart had flowed away with sweat and exhaustion.

Returning to Pingshan Village again, he pulled the rein to slow down the horse.The horse's hooves set foot on the small road at the head of the village, making only a slight "kicking" sound.

Xiao Shu'er let Ma'er walk home slowly. When he wanted to go home, he had put aside the heavy burden in his heart and faced another brand new self.

In the direction of the home in the distance, a little orange light danced slightly.Xiao Shu'er's expression shook, and her heart warmed up. It was the small oil lamp on the light pole at home.And the oil lamp was on for him right now?

Xiao Shu'er jumped off the horse, let go of the rein, and ran towards home with both legs.Exhausting his last strength to rush to the door of the house, he saw Liu Ya standing in front of the door with a smile on his face, waiting for him.

"Second Sister..." Xiao Shu'er rushed over and plunged into Liu Ya's arms, feeling the embrace and warmth of her family.

Liu Ya gently wrapped her arms around Xiao Shu'er's body, patted his back with her hands, and said, "It's not too late to come back, I just made ginseng porridge."

"Ginseng... make porridge?" Xiao Shu'er finally smiled, this porridge should be quite expensive.

Liu Ya nodded, and said: "You've grown up too, it's time to make up your body. Men, you can't be strong on the outside."

"Second Sister, am I your younger brother? How can you say that about me." Xiao Shu'er's face was a bit stinky, even though he was still young, he still couldn't accept such a description.

Liu Ya smiled and patted him on the head, and said: "The hair is not fully grown yet, how dare you care about what the second sister says about you? I am a doctor, and I will actively treat sick people; those who are not sick It is within the scope of my responsibility for people to make up for you. Let’s go, the ginseng porridge is ready, and the hot water is boiled. You take a bath first, and I will dry the porridge for you.”

Xiao Shu'er looked at the dust all over his body and the blood on his hands and sleeves, and took a deep breath.He thanked the second sister for waiting for him to come back late at night, and thanked the second sister for giving him the greatest understanding and support without asking anything.

Liu Ya patted his head again, and said, "Don't just stand there stupidly, come in with me. You don't want Second Sister to wipe your back now, do you?"

"No, no need. I'll just take a shower and change clothes. It's so late, I don't need to take a bath." After Xiao Shu'er finished speaking, she let go of Liu Ya and ran towards the old house.When I came to the well, I filled a bucket of water, and poured it down directly.

Liu Ya ran over, seeing Xiao Shu'er taking a shower like this, she couldn't laugh or cry.I was afraid that he would get sick if he drenched in the cold well water, but I also knew that he was uncomfortable, so I wanted to use the well water to wake myself up.

Therefore, Liu Ya just took a cloth towel and quietly guarded the little tree beside her.

Liu Ya didn't go over until Xiao Shu'er washed herself clean with cold well water.Wrapped him with a clean cloth towel, and wiped his cold, dripping hair at the same time, said: "It seems that I need to add a few herbs to my ginseng porridge."
