Cub Nursery

"Is the village okay now?" Dabao was packing his luggage. These should be the jobs of adults, but he can do them with ease.

Even though Dabao is only a child now, he is no longer a child.He is more transparent than before, and also more thorough than before, but those originally clear and bright eyes have become dim, gradually infected by darkness.

The little cub seems to have grown a lot taller in just a few days, and it looks about the same height as Dabao. His expression is no longer innocent and innocent, like an adult who grew up overnight, and it seems that something is holding him. quietly transformed.

"Uncle Wu's family completely broke up. A man died, his wife ran away, and the child was left unattended. After a few days, he was starving. Many people said that the child would not survive."

The rest of the village didn't feel much better, and they had already started planning for the second 'sacrifice', that is, they were going to choose a child to sell.

The little cub didn't mention Dabao's parents and younger brother, but he has been paying attention to their movements.

Little Treasure seemed to grow up in an instant. He witnessed his elder brother being sent into the mountains by the people in the village, and even though he had countless thoughts in his heart, he was powerless. He was so young, he didn't have much strength or wisdom, He could only watch helplessly as his brother was taken away.

Parents have been watching silently, did not say anything.

The people around looked at their family coldly, and even vaguely surrounded their family.

Sometimes Xiaobao ran into the yard in the rain, and could see the cold face outside through the crack of the door. It was the men from the village who went directly to guard the door of their house.

He was startled, and saw that the faces of the people in the village he was familiar with in the past changed, and he backed away quickly, back into the house.

My brother is gone, but life at home is even more difficult, and it hasn't changed for the better because of my brother's departure.

The father and mother became more and more taciturn, staying in the house all the time, and sometimes they couldn't say a few words all day.They all knew about the affairs of Uncle Wu's family, but they didn't react much, as if what happened to Uncle Wu's family had nothing to do with the village or them.

More and more insensitive.

The little cub also packed up a burden, and left the town behind Dabao, ignoring the prying eyes, "The situation in the county should not be very good. There are so many villages affected by the disaster, and I want to change everything. It’s even a big demon who doesn’t have that ability…”

"We don't have the ability to change, just live well." Dabao said, "I will do my best to keep you fed and clothed, even if it is by any means."

So even if he is unscrupulous, even if his hands are covered with blood, he still has the motivation to live: he wants to repay his kindness, repay the kindness of saving his life, to the monster cub who saved his life.

"Let's go." The little cub puffed up his chest, "Da Qin isn't that sad."

I was trapped in Honglu Temple before, with nothing to eat, nothing to wear, and my stomach ached from hunger. I wondered whether I could survive every day, but since I came out of Honglu Temple, the little cub’s The day changes completely.

At least there is something to eat, and I can slowly fill my stomach, and then... I learned to be a human being.

A man with blood dripping on his paws.

In the narrow and dark room, Zhao Yuanting suddenly opened his eyes, and then felt infinite regret.

He had a beautiful dream. In the dream, there was a disaster-stricken place, the scale of which was small, and no matter what, it would not affect the above, or even the county magistrate, let alone the Beijing officials.

In this kind of disaster with little impact, Zhao Yuanting saw another possibility.

That little cub has become more human-like, with blood on his hands, he has unparalleled flaws, and with a little manipulation, he can be used for himself.

Zhao Yuanting closed his eyes fiercely, wanting to continue that dream, but he couldn't continue no matter what.

Suddenly, a light appeared, and Zhao Yuanting opened his eyes with a bad face, and looked at the door that opened at an unknown time.

"Brother, we don't have much time." Brother Dan pushed the door forward and opened the door a little wider to let in more light from outside.

When the light hit Heizi, the motionless Heizi still didn't respond.

Brother Dan ran in, ran to Heizi's feet and looked up at him, then sighed heavily, with an old-fashioned look, "Heizi, let my brother try to give you an electric shock today! But don't be afraid, this It has been tested by a doctor, and it has the effect of bringing the dead back to life, but the effect is not [-]%..."

Zhao Yuanting was silent. He listened to Brother Dan's words, and there were some waves in his heart.

Bringing the dead back to life, even if the effect is not ten percent, even if it is only ten percent possible, it is still very powerful, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a miracle.

"I'm only [-]% sure." Brother Dan said hesitantly, "but your situation is different. Xiao Hei has been working and studying for a while, so he has no time to come over, but he asked me to help you. Heizi... when will you To begin to evolve..."

The thunder and lightning cub came in behind pushing a complicated instrument, and Brother Dan hurried to the side to hide when he saw it.

Zhao Yuanting stared at the thunder cub, and the regret in his heart became more and more intense. In his dream, this little cub was already covered in blood, and he looked no different from a villain.

"Brother Egg, I have an idea." The thunder cub was wearing spotless clothes, his cheeks were bulging, and his ears looked very different from others. At this time, his hair was tied up, and his ears were completely exposed.

"Okay." Brother Dan ran to the far side to face the wall, and raised his paw to cover his eyes.

Thunder Cub glanced at Zhao Yuanting, ignored him, then quickly stretched out his paw and poked Heizi.

Heizi's body quickly bounced up.

The Thunder Cub poked again, and Heizi flicked again.

During this gap, the two paws of the Thunder Cub rubbed against each other, and a bright electric spark flashed. In this small secret room, it was far more shocking than the lightning and thunder in the sky.

Zhao Yuanting almost went blind, he quickly closed his eyes and didn't dare to look any more, but he thought in his heart that the Thunder Cub really should not be underestimated, it has the power of heaven and earth.

"Okay." Thunder Cub said suddenly.

Brother Dan opened his eyes and ran over, "Is it useful?"

"It seems useless now." Cub Thunder patted Brother Dan's head, and then said to Heizi, "Brother Dan and I still have an errand, and I'll talk to you when I finish my work over there."

The door opened again quickly, and closed again quickly, blocking all sight.

Zhao Yuanting closed his eyes again, trying to fall into a dream. He felt that the meaning of his life now was those dreams that made him feel very happy.

It's a pity that he failed to fulfill his wish this time, and that dream never continued.

Outside, Cub Thunder and Brother Dan joined the Dao soldiers from the capital camp, and without further ado, they immediately set off in the rain.

The team quickly left the capital, rushed straight to the county below, passed the county without entering, quickly entered the town below, also did not enter the town, and rushed to the village below.

There was continuous heavy rain in the sky, and the ground was washed severely. The farmland on both sides of the official road looked miserable. It was obvious that the farmers had no harvest this year.

"Why didn't the people below report earlier." Brother Dan stood on the head of the war horse, putting up an awning with his hands, trying to see the village in the distance clearly through the rain curtain, "It's a good thing that Dabao is studying in the school, and if he knows something, he can go to the yamen, otherwise we don't know what's going on." Only then will we know what’s going on here.”

"It's probably because he was afraid that he would be punished if he reported the matter." Xie Ranshu said softly.

He has just been transferred back from Qiyuan County a while ago, but he is no longer a low-level general in the capital camp, but a city guard general in the capital camp. This time, he specially dispatched troops to assist the Yamen. It still looks like the cubs.

Brother Dan walked to the side, stepped forward to hold the horse's ears, the horse neighed briskly, and approached Xie Ranshu actively.

Although Brother Dan is small, he is also a war horse by himself, and the horse that carries him is the easiest one, so he couldn't help but go to his colleagues to brag about it.

Xie Ranshu's war horse raised its long eyelashes and glanced, ignoring the trembling war horse.

"Didn't the imperial court come up with a specific plan a long time ago, like this kind of non-reporting of crimes if you know the truth." Brother Dan was puzzled.

"It's not that simple." Xie Ranshu said softly, "If Dabao didn't happen to be studying in the No. [-] School in Beijing, we wouldn't know about the accident here so quickly. Maybe we wouldn't know about the accident here when the turmoil here subsides. .”

According to the current information, there are actually not many villages guarded, but they are relatively concentrated. In addition, the county seat was originally a lower county and relatively poor, so life in the village is naturally difficult.

Farmers rely on the weather for food, and the weather cannot be smooth, and there is no harvest in the fields. Many people can't even survive half a year.

The younger brother knew all these things, he was silent for a while, and muttered: "It's all human lives, why don't you bear it."

At least Brother Dan couldn't bear it.

"Others are others after all, and the first thing people think of is themselves." Xie Ranshu broke Brother Dan's beautiful thoughts, and said, "Master Xiaodan often encounters some heinous cases on weekdays."

"I know, but I still feel uncomfortable." Brother Dan touched his heart, then suddenly turned around and ran along the horse's tail, then jumped onto the back of the horse next to him, and threw himself into the arms of the cub Thunder, with a voice Sullenly, "Brother, we promised Dabao to help him."

"I will help him." The thunder cub touched Dan's brother's head, and said gently, "Dabao has gone back to the village one step earlier than us, and he will help us too. Besides, good and bad go hand in hand, this disaster is not necessarily a bad thing ..."

"En." Brother Dan cheered up a little bit, and hurriedly urged the horse to run quickly.

In fact, apart from the Taoist soldiers from the capital's camp, even the civil servants from the yamen rode their horses vigorously this time, and even the heavy rain did not affect their speed in the slightest.

It seemed that the war horse had sensed everyone's anxiety, and under the thunder and lightning, it accelerated again.

The gloomy clouds in the sky pressed down, as if you could touch them with your hands. When the dazzling lightning appeared, the people below felt a wave of heart palpitations, and even the war horses showed faint signs of losing control.

Brother Dan yelled, "Oops, there is no lightning rod, we will be struck by lightning."

"That's why I'm here." The Thunder Cub let go of the rein in its paws and stood up slowly.

The rest of the people subconsciously looked at Cub Thunder, he still looked like a child, his ears were completely exposed, showing that he was different from ordinary children, but no one rejected him because everyone knew he was very good.
