These four words are colder than any place I have ever been.

"Mother!" I was desperate, kneeling down and wailing: "Give me some time, this story is not over yet."

She didn't express her position, but the depletion speed has significantly slowed down, so she should take it as a yes.

"Once upon a time..."

The story was about to begin when she hurriedly came down with an eager look on her face.

Before he even got close to me, I yelled angrily: "Don't speak!"

No matter what she wants to say, what she wants to say...

"Shhh"

I made a quiet gesture, this story needed to be heard.

Once upon a time, there was a beast that crawled around with its half-sized eyes open when it was born. It screamed louder than anything else when it was held in the mouth of its parents. Every time it ate milk, it had to be sucked on its mother's nipple...

There are teeth marks on the cubs, so we don’t feed them anymore, and they are always messing around. I haven’t grown up yet, and I have visited almost all the dens on the mountain. I have fought with other cubs more times than I can count. It doesn’t matter whether I win or lose outside.

, she couldn't escape a beating even when she came home. Time passed by, and she grew a little longer. Now she often follows her father and mother to learn how to hunt. She is very talented, and there is no shortage of food in the mountains. The rest of the time

, it seems that all that is left is eating, hunting, playing, and sleeping. Occasionally, if you don't meet a familiar beast, you can only sleep dullly in the nest day after day.

As she grew up, her hunting range became wider and wider, she knew more and more things, and heard more and more things. One day, she dragged the newly caught prey back to her lair, and the heat didn't even have time to dissipate.

, then he walked to his mother and sat down, feeling a little unhappy.

"What are humans like?"

"There are many in the mountains. Haven't you seen them? Transformed beasts."

"I'm talking about real humans!"

"Real humans are like that, what's wrong? You say these things suddenly."

"It's not like that. Humans don't eat raw meat with hair on it, and their bodies are covered with something."

[People are in danger!]

"It's dangerous that those beasts have turned into humans."

[What do you care about doing that? You are not going to the human territory. Go to sleep. If you really want to practice your body, you can do it by yourself.]

"I won't."

"I'll teach you tomorrow."

"oh."

At that time, I always thought how good human beings were.

She spent a lot of time learning to transform. In fact, with her talent, it didn't take that long at all. However, no matter how she transformed, it didn't feel perfect. She asked those beasts who had already transformed for advice, but the result was not as good as her own form.

The most unprecedented time, a real human came to the mountains. She was so excited that she almost turned the nest over, but her parents refused to allow her to come near. In the end, she did not go, but stayed outside the nest for several days, always watching.

pointing in one direction.

That direction was wrong, but it satisfied the desire.

Over the past few years, her interest in humans has faded away, and she no longer talks about it all the time.

One day, leaders who rarely appeared appeared one after another in various places in the mountains, as if they were talking about something big.

The scope of her activities was already large, and the number of people talking about this matter increased sharply. She received the news early that it turned out that a human race was going to pass by, which aroused her long-lost expectations.

"Mother, mother, there are humans coming over, many, many humans, I can see real people!"

She was so happy that day that she stayed up all night. A few days later, the leader arrived and gathered the beasts on the mountain, saying the same thing.

She was very happy that the news she heard was confirmed and that she was about to see humans. However, her parents' expressions became more and more serious as the leader said.

That's all. In the next period of time, we need to hunt more food, don't attack humans, and don't cause chaos...

After talking so much, in the final analysis, isn’t it just a matter of being obedient? It’s no different from what parents usually say. It’s a lot of nonsense. I’ve already heard enough of this kind of talk.

She didn't have the patience to leave early.

After leaving, in just half a day, she caught five prey, which was a feat neither her father nor mother had ever achieved. Beasts in chaos are as fragile as ants.

That night, she was very proud in front of her parents, wondering why she hadn't praised herself yet. After waiting for a long time, she finally said: "You are not allowed to run around starting tomorrow."

[Why?]

For her, this is absolutely impossible.

"Humans are very dangerous, and the humans passing by this time are even more dangerous! Everyone has to give way, it's too late to hide, and you still want to get close to humans!"

[I'm going!]

At that moment, she made up her mind to go even to death. The next day, the next day, the first month...

Now she knows something about fear.

No humans were seen during this period, but the mountains became completely different.

There were fights everywhere, the dark red color of blood was poured out, and mud could be seen everywhere. From time to time, ferocious beasts could be heard, and the roars of ferocious beasts made all the beasts tremble with fear.

"What are those ferocious beasts doing here?"

Don’t they all have their own territory?

She actually has the answer to this question, so let's give way.

The most powerful evil in my eyes is also giving way, so how evil must those human beings be.

Next, there are more and more beasts in the mountains, and the fights become more and more intense. There are not so many beasts in the mountains, they are foreign.

[If this continues, the beasts in the entire mountain range will be eaten up. If we have to let the beasts outside come in, what does their life and death have to do with us?]

"They are right. Those humans came a month ago. Where are the humans now?"

[If you don’t come for a month, so what if you don’t come for a year? That’s not the case.]

[The foundation must not be broken!]

[Okay, you call the beasts with some strength, I have something to say...]

It turns out that the rules of awe and fear that everyone follows are originally derived from despair.

She didn't know this, she only knew that those ferocious beasts stood up inexplicably and barely controlled the situation.

There have been fewer fights and the rules have spread, but what about you?

This road is really wide.

She didn't have to worry about food. Originally, she could just stay in the nest.

Maybe there really is such a thing as nature. She can't sit still and sneaks away from time to time to learn more.

Although the fighting has decreased, it still exists, and it intensifies under strong pressure. For a very small piece of meat, which is so small that she is too lazy to pick it up when it falls on the edge of a cliff, a large group of beasts can fight to the death for it. This is never the case.

I dare not even think about it.

She saw such a scene more than once, and once she got caught up in it. Fortunately, she escaped. In a very short time, her arm was torn open.

Are those...really beasts? There is no sense of reason at all. Almost every one of them has horrific wounds, and almost every beast has flesh and blood in its mouth. Whose is it? I don’t know, maybe it is my own.

Not pity, just surprise.

Not far from the fight, there is usually a group of herbivorous beasts standing. When the fighting beasts die or disperse, they will lick the remaining blood, bone residue, and fishy-smelling soil.

Don't let it go.

Ridiculous.

No matter how weird the scene is, it happens once, twice, or a hundred times, but it will inevitably become commonplace in the end, and the same is true for her.

After walking through the smelly dry land and skipping three or two fights, her destination was near the exit of the mountain range. She would usually lie down with a bunch of beasts and occasionally look outside.

The expectation is still the same, but in a different direction. What kind of shape can create such evil?

It was another day, just as usual, but halfway through the trip, she felt something strange.

The beasts are boiling, and all kinds of words are noisy, but the word "human" is extremely clear.

"There are two humans? Where are they?"

Her heart beat instantly and she began to run wildly. She saw the surrounding herd of beasts far away, and the shadows of humans loomed inside. She was even more excited, as if she heard everything they were saying.

"Look at it from a distance and then leave immediately"

She was talking to herself during the last distance, expecting and fear coexisting.

When she mustered up the courage to rush into the crowded herd, and when those two "human beings" were completely revealed in front of her, an indescribable feeling of loss hit her.

It's not a human being. You can tell from the smell, attire, and demeanor.

Two ordinary bodies actually made her run away for so long!

Outsider? Coming so late?

What is that bastard doing?...You dare to take action? You can't even see the most basic situation.
To be continued...
