"Quie Wu, since you're here, just stay here for one night and leave tomorrow." Que Wu finished eating the meat in his hand, Hushan invited.
"No, I'm relieved that you are all fine. I have to go back. My brother is still waiting for me at home." Quewu declined.
"How can we leave in such darkness? Why don't you stay here for one night and then go back?" Mrs. Hu also advised.
"No grandma, if I don't go back, my brother will be worried."
"But, what if there is danger?" Mrs. Hu was still worried.
"Grandma, why don't we go back with him? His cave is quite big and we can stay there for one night." Hushan suggested.
"OK!"
"I agree!"
The brothers all agreed.
This cold season has driven them crazy. Now that they have an opportunity to go out and play, how can they let it go?
"Grandma, don't worry. If we go together, there will be no problem. Besides, isn't Long Ao here? If Long Ao is here, nothing will happen."
"That won't work either!" Mrs. Hu still refused sternly, "Don't leave either, that Que family boy. I'm not worried about you coming back so late."
"Then let's keep it like this. Let's wait a little longer until the sky starts to get brighter before we leave." Long Ao said.
"There will be patrolling orcs in the tribe after dawn, so we don't have to be afraid."
"Yes, grandma, all the porcupine beasts have been wiped out. No more porcupine beasts will come. Don't worry. Let us go with Que Wu after dawn."
The seven cubs gathered around the old lady and begged, some holding their arms and some holding their thighs. Hu Ling'er simply got into the arms of the old lady and rubbed her chin with his round little head.
She knew grandma liked this best.
Finally, Mrs. Hu was defeated and relaxed: "Then you must pay attention to safety!"
"Don't worry, grandma, we are very powerful now!" Hu Fu clenched his little fist, Hu Dong followed suit and raised his arms, and even Hu Ling'er opened his mouth and exposed his fangs.
.
"I, I still want to go back alone!"
Everyone was working hard, but Que Wu poured cold water on them, as if he didn't welcome them.
"Quie Wu, you don't want us to go? Are you afraid that we will eat your eggs? Don't worry, we don't have to eat them!" Hushan comforted Que Wu.
"I'm not, I just..."
Que Wu didn't know what to say, so he had to shut up silently. He knew that the brothers of the Hu family were worried about his safety, but he didn't want to trouble them.
Because they had something on their minds, none of the group of cubs felt sleepy.
Even the old lady Hu went to bed, and the few cubs were still lying at the entrance of the cave counting the stars.
The stars in the sky were very bright. Hu Ling'er looked at the various constellations that he had never observed carefully before, and was filled with emotion. It turned out that even if he changed his life in another time and space, the universe would still be the same universe, and the starry sky would still be the same eternal starry sky.
It seems like nothing has changed.
The little cubs kept their word until the sky turned white, then they walked out of the cave and set foot on the road to Que Wu's house.
The snow on the mountain is still very thick. If you step on it, you will sink in for a long time.
When Quewu came, he found a path that had been trampled by the orcs. After they finally set foot on that path, their speed became much faster.
"Quie Wu, you haven't been back for so long, will Que Liu be worried?" Hushan asked as he walked.
"It doesn't matter. I told him when I left that he might come back the next day. I asked him to wait for me until the next night. If I don't come back at night, he will come out to look for me again."
"Quie Wu, right?" Hufu also asked, "Are you and your brother the only ones living on the mountain? How long have you lived here? I've never seen you come down to play."
"We..." Que Wu didn't know how to answer. He and Que Liu were picked up by the clan leader, and they were not actually members of the tribe.
"Brother, if he doesn't want to tell you, don't ask." Hushan came to Quewu's rescue.
Before reaching the entrance of the cave, Que Wu Da called from afar: "Que Liu, come and see, who did I bring here?"
But he didn't hear a reply for a long time, and when he got closer, he even heard faint crying coming from the cave.
Que Wu suddenly had a bad premonition.
The little cubs quickened their pace and ran to the entrance of the cave. Before they entered the cave, they saw seven or eight orcs standing inside.
Queliu was lying on the ground, his face covered with messy blood and mud, and an orc's foot was still stepping on his back.
Chicken feathers were flying all over the cave. All nine chickens lay lifeless on the ground. There was also a hen stretching her neck and cooing, followed by more than a dozen fluffy chicks.
"Brother, brother, they are bad guys, they came to steal our chickens." Que Liu cried even harder when he saw Que Wu.
Hu Ling'er took a closer look at the person in front of him, and immediately saw the sharp-mouthed and monkey-cheeked Hu Gu. Behind Hu Gu was an untransformed little wolf cub with a tuft of white hair on his forehead. It was Wolf Feifei.
"What are you doing?" Que Wu's eyes turned red.
"What are you doing?" Someone among the orcs said, it was Hu Gu, "You, the servants of the great witch, dare to secretly escape from the patriarch's house, forget about running away, and you dare to steal chickens from the patriarch's house. Of course we are here to teach you a lesson.
of."
"Nonsense, we didn't steal the chickens at all, we caught these chickens on the mountain!" Que Wu retorted.
"Caught on the mountain? Who doesn't know that the mountains around our clan are empty, and adult orcs can't catch chickens even if they go up the mountain? Can you catch them? And you can catch so many at once?"
"That's right! You two little cubs haven't even grown up yet, so you still catch chickens? Let the chickens catch you and you're just fine!" The other orcs also laughed.
"enough!"
Que Wu said forbearingly: "Don't you just want chickens? We don't want them anymore. You can take them all away."
The opponents are all adult orcs, and their little cubs are definitely no match.
What's more, several brothers from the Hu family were also there, and he didn't want to implicate the brothers from the Hu family because of his own affairs.
"Take the chickens away?" A strange smile appeared on Hu Gu's face: "Are we here for these chickens? We are obviously here to catch you! As servants of the patriarch's family, the patriarch did not tell you to
Come on, how dare you run away privately?"
"But at the beginning, it was the patriarch who said he didn't want us. He asked his servants to throw us here to feed us to wild animals. We survived on our own, so why should we follow you back!"
Hu Gu wanted to say something else, but Lang Feifei, who had been watching with cold eyes, snorted impatiently.
As if he had received the instruction, Hu Gu immediately stepped forward and grabbed Que Wu's arm, shouting: "Where did all this nonsense come from? If the great witch asks you to go back, you have to go back with us!"
