If we bring along a non-human wolf-eared brother, then the plan that Prince Yue and I had previously set up will definitely be ruined. Prince Yue didn't even think before rejecting him, using an even more hurtful reason: "I don't know what you're planning to do with this baby, but it almost caused a blood calamity, so I have no choice but to be more careful."
/p
The wolf-eared brother was dejected, but he nodded. "That makes sense."
/p
Prince Yue: "…"
/p
What an honest wretched child.
/p
Prince Yue was speechless for a while before he spoke again. "What do you plan to do?"
/p
The wolf-eared brother: "If you don't want me to follow you to atone for my sins, I'll follow you from behind. If there's any danger, I'll help you. If there's no movement, we'll go our separate ways. I'll do this for three days. After three days, I'll disappear. "
/p
Prince Yue: "…"
/p
He's a gummy candy that can't be shaken off.
/p
Seeing that the killing intent and anger that Prince Yue had suppressed with great difficulty was slowly rising to his head again, I hurriedly took a step forward to ease the situation, "That accident just now, you didn't do it on purpose, right? Although children are young, they never remember things."
/p
"Children don't remember things, but the Heavens do. If the Heavens don't remember things, how can you hide the things in your heart from them?"
/p
Not only does this wolf-eared young man's face look like a rock, even the beating heart in his chest seems to have been carved out of stone and stuffed into his body. Every time you knock it, it will beat. If you don't knock it, it won't beat. He's a one-track mind.
/p
Prince Yue and I were born and bred in the palace. The people around us are all meticulous and thoughtful. Even when they show a smile, they think about how many layers of meaning it contains. The two of us are also used to dealing with people. We are used to using the method of advancing in order to retreat when speaking and doing things. Now, facing such a straightforward little brother, we are really at our wits' end.
/p
He waited for a while. Seeing that neither Prince Yue nor I spoke, he asked, "Can I follow you for three days?"
/p
Prince Yue didn't say anything, and I had completely lost my temper. I glared at him in annoyance. I couldn't say that I was angry. Instead, I felt a little helpless. "What else? If we don't let you follow us, you won't follow us?"
/p
Only then did the young man relax. He had always been tall and proud. Earlier, when he admitted his mistake, he was a little dispirited. Now, because he was excited, he straightened up a little. "I came out to look for food. Now that it's noon, I'll go find some more food."
/p
I waved my hand, indicating that he should hurry. When the young man's figure disappeared into the dense forest, I hurriedly pulled Prince Yue and prepared to escape.
/p
Prince Yue held my hand. "There's no other way."
/p
"Why is there no way?"
/p
Prince Yue pointed in the direction the young man had gone and said, "That's a wolf cultivator. Wolf cultivators have the best sense of smell. As long as he remembers our scent, he'll be able to find us."
/p
I raised my arm and sniffed myself. "That can't be. We haven't even interacted with him. How could he know our scent?"
/p
Prince Yue was a little helpless. He pointed at the Bao Xiu doll that was snoring and drooling. "That wolf cultivator will never forget this little thing's pee." He glanced at me and continued, "But if we want to leave, it's not like there's no other way. If I'm not wrong, the wolf cultivator will only remember the scent of the baby in your arms. We can just throw it here or make it into a trap. "
/p
I interrupted him righteously, "No."
/p
Prince Yue asked me in confusion, "Why not?"
/p
For the first time, I mustered up my courage and said to Prince Yue, "Using a baby as a trap? I can't do such a heartless thing."
/p
Prince Yue said, "That's a non-human baby. I've been holding back my strength for so long. It's already very benevolent of me not to kill him. "
/p
I emphasized, "That's still a baby. He's small and soft. He doesn't have any evil intentions and can't tell right from wrong. No matter what his race is, at least when he's in his swaddling clothes, he's still an innocent life. "
/p
Prince Yue scolded, "You're too soft-hearted."
/p
I said, "As a woman, it's better to be soft-hearted."
/p
We quarreled for a long time. Neither of us was willing to back down. We quarreled until the baby woke up and the wolf cultivator returned from his hunt under the blood-stained sunset. I looked up at the sky in surprise. Another day had passed.
/p
Little brother with wolf ears said that he was going to hunt, but he came back empty-handed. He nobly picked up the firewood around him one by one and gathered them together to make a bonfire. I had a quarrel with Prince Yue because of the issue of ideas. At this moment, I didn't want to talk to him at all. Coincidentally, there was someone in front of me who could talk to me, so I ran to little brother with wolf ears, sat across the bonfire, and talked to him one by one.
/p
The wolf cultivator paid more attention to the baby in my arms. He took a fruit from the side. It was bright red and looked very cute. He was about to hand it to the baby in my arms.
/p
I stifled a laugh and stopped him, "No, he can't eat it."
/p
Hearing this, the wolf-eared little brother turned his wrist and handed the red fruit to me.
/p
Prince Yue ran over. "His fruit isn't sweet. Eat mine." He put a bigger and rounder fruit in my hand.
/p
I took both fruits into my hands and took a bite from each side. They were both sweet and fragrant.
/p
Prince Yue was angry again.
/p
I didn't care at all and continued to chat with the wolf-eared young man. After talking for a long time, it was all about useless things. I called him young man intimately, but I forgot to ask his name from the beginning.
/p
"I was confused." I smiled awkwardly. "I forgot to ask for your name."
/p
The young man didn't hesitate and directly said to me, "Si Gui."
/p
I raised my eyebrows and smiled. "Si Gui? I used to have a maid by my side called Jiang Gui. With your names, you two can make a pair. "
/p
Si Gui shook his head. He picked up a piece of firewood and put it into the fire. "One is Si, and the other is General. They are both thoughts, not reality."
/p
"It's good to have thoughts."
/p
Si Gui shook his head again. "What's good about thoughts? It's good to be able to return."
/p
Although he didn't want to say more, the loneliness in his body was overflowing. I wanted to ask the almighty Prince Yue, but my narrow-minded mind still remembered the anger from before. I didn't want to ask.
/p
The Prince of Yue had been staring at me the whole time. Seeing that I was about to relax, he decided to join in the fun. "I heard that wolf cultivators have strict rules. Even the slightest violation will result in expulsion from the tribe. Little brother, you were given such a name. I think someone put their hope in you. "
/p
It wasn't hard to guess that this hope was "Si Gui."
/p
Si Gui didn't nod or shake his head. He just continued, "I am a lone wolf. I am not much different from you rogue cultivators. We are both abandoned by the edge."
/p
His words made me angry. Who was abandoned by the edge?!
/p
Prince Yue let out a long sigh. It was rare for him to be interested. "What rules did you break?" Prince Yue's question hit the nail on the head. I was also very curious. With Si Gui's rigid personality, what rules did he break?
/p
Si Gui said, "I didn't break any rules."
/p
Then he had broken the rules.
/p
Prince Yue and I understood each other's thoughts. We looked at each other and didn't ask any more questions. But after looking at each other, I suddenly remembered that we were still in a fit of anger. Looking at each other, wasn't it indirectly asking for peace?
/p
In order to make my stand firm, I put on a ferocious face and glared at him again. Prince Yue smiled shamelessly. He was fearless.
/p
I was furious.
/p
On the other side, Si Gui had seen enough of the interaction between husband and wife. He silently looked away. Taking advantage of the truce, he picked a break to ask, "How long have you been here?"
/p
I stared blankly for a moment. Thinking that this question shouldn't be taboo, I answered honestly, "It's been almost ten days."
/p
Si Gui's face was serious. "Have you seen a rabbit?"
/p
I was a bit traumatized by the word rabbit. Clenching my sore gums, I asked, "What rabbit?" “/p
/p
Si Gui: "A rabbit with human eyes."
/p
I sprang to my feet.
/p
The nightmarish scene of that night would sometimes appear in front of me. That night was the turning point of my misfortune after coming to Guan Zhongsheng Village.
/p
Si Gui was very calm when he saw my reaction. He poked the firewood again, causing the firewood to shoot up high. Then, it slowly fell back down and returned to its original state. "You've seen it before?"
/p
Prince Yue opened his mouth to answer for me. "No, how can there be a rabbit with human eyes?"
/p
"Yes." Si Gui nodded solemnly. "Those things are food made by the wolf cultivators."
/p
Si Gui's tone was always serious and calm. It was as if what he had just described wasn't a terrifying rabbit with human eyes, but a field of ripe rice that could be harvested immediately after planting seedlings.
/p
Si Gui: "I wanted to hunt a few rabbits, but I didn't expect there to be no trace of them in the entire forest."
/p
Prince Yue: "Perhaps they were all eaten by wolf cultivators."
/p
Si Gui shook his head. "Wolf cultivators aren't stupid people who kill the goose that lays the golden eggs. Besides, rabbits don't hesitate for generations. How could they eat them all?"
/p
Prince Yue, the culprit behind the destruction of the rabbit with human eyes, was still pretending to guess with Si Gui. "Could it be that there was a fire in the forest? In the face of a natural disaster, there were signs of destruction."
/p
Si Gui: "In the face of a natural disaster, how could it only punish one clan?"
/p
Prince Yue shook his head in defeat. "I can't think of anything."
