Decided to live by pretending to be a cat after being unemployed

When Guan Lin set off, it was five o'clock in the evening, which is not too late in summer, and the sky is still bright, but as the journey progresses and time goes by, the sun slowly sinks in the sky, and after sinking into the horizon, There is no longer any light in the mountains.

The starry sky in summer nights has always been brilliant. In the past, even humans with poor night vision can see things in the mountains and forests with the brilliance of the stars and the moon.

But there are no stars tonight, and the starry sky above the head seems to be completely covered by some black curtain, with no starlight showing.

This is probably related to the Heavenly Demon King. Wherever he goes, he will fall into the lightless eternal night. Before, his magic power was only limited to the Sishui Plain, but at this moment, when he led the army to go out, he was farther away from the territory of the Yaozu. As it gets closer, this kind of astronomical change will follow.

I don't know if Guan Rin is scaring himself. He feels that the dark night has a strong ominous meaning, which makes him want to turn around immediately and go back to the tribe where all the tribe members are, instead of being alone like this Walking in the mountains and forests, I found a person who didn't know where he was.

This thought of fear and retreat has been lingering in Guan Lin's mind, but his trembling steps kept moving forward, because there was another voice in his mind, Gu Linyuan's voice.

Gu Linyuan was left there alone, he was so weak, the demons could easily tear him apart and eat him, he must be very scared and helpless right now.

Guan Lin didn't think about the possibility that the other party had already been killed, he was just deceiving himself, escaping, thinking that the other party must still be alive, must still be hiding somewhere tremblingly waiting for Guan Lin to rescue him.

That's right, Gu Linyuan is waiting for him!Guan Rin cheers himself up, he has to be brave, the devil has nothing to fear, he is a god-blooded beast, the nemesis of the demon clan, there is nothing to fear!

Guan Lin yelled hard in his heart. After yelling like this a few times, he seemed to be less afraid and could move forward bravely.

As a result, just as he took this brave step, he suddenly heard the whirling sound of leaves rubbing against the nearby bushes. Guan Lin was so frightened that he immediately lay down on the ground, with his ears behind his head, his paws holding his head, and his tail Couldn't even keep shaking.

He is still so scared!

Although, what caused the noise was just an ordinary squirrel that didn't even become a demon, its body was so small that it was not as big as Guan Rin's paw.The squirrel stared at Guan Rin for a while, holding the pine cone in its mouth, as if it didn't understand why such a big tiger was afraid of him.

Of course Guan Lin is not afraid of squirrels, he is frightened by his own imagination.

This kind of fear is not under the control of reason. The fear of demons seems to be an instinct of his. When he thinks of the name and breath of demons, he will tremble all over, his limbs will become stiff, and he will be unable to do anything.

Guan Lin didn't understand why he was like this. He was clearly not inferior to other people of the same race, and his strength was not weak, but everyone else was so brave. Only he was a coward. Bounce away and become the laughing stock of the whole family.

He is useless.

Guan Lin drooped his ears and thought, it was precisely because he was so useless and timid that Gu Linyuan could not be at ease to accompany him to escort him, but now he was abandoned in a dangerous place by himself, and his life and death were unknown.

It was all his fault, he had to get Gu Linyuan back.Guan Lin once again strengthened his determination, suppressed the many fears and uneasiness, and tried to squeeze out a little courage to move forward.

He walked a little further, the night was getting darker, and he was getting closer to the dangerous front line.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Guan Lin finally arrived at the previous village.

There were still many people living yesterday, but now there is no one in the smoldering village, and the houses are all dark, and the money and food inside have all been taken away by the villagers.

But there is something else in this empty village at the moment, which is demonic energy.

Guan Lin swallowed, the demonic aura was not heavy, those demons should have left for a while, it was just a little breath left, but this breath still made him fearful and had bad guesses.

He took a deep breath, doing mental construction, and then walked lightly and cautiously towards the village. He searched as he walked, trying to find that person in this empty village, or... the incomplete person left after being eaten limbs.

Guan Lin rubbed his eyes with his paws, he twitched his nose, and told himself not to think so badly, Gu Linyuan is so smart, he must hide when he sees the devil, and nothing will happen.

It's going to be fine... He kept thinking about this sentence that was almost self-deceiving, if Gu Linyuan was safe and sound, why didn't he go back to the tribe to find himself?He clearly knows the way.

Guan Lin didn't want to think deeply, he found various reasons for Gu Linyuan, maybe Gu Linyuan got lost accidentally, or was injured and couldn't move around, but he must still be alive anyway.

Guan Rin continued to search, he searched around, but found nothing.

Guan Lin didn't know whether it was good news or bad news. The good news was that at least it was not certain that Gu Linyuan was dead. If he didn't die, there was still hope. The bad news was that if Gu Linyuan wasn't here, he didn't know where to go to find him. up.

No matter, go look around again.

Guan Rin went to the surrounding woods to search again. He searched around, but still couldn't find it, so he continued to expand the area. Slowly, he went to a farther and farther location, so that Guan Rin was a little lost.

Guan Rin came to a cliff five or six meters high. He didn't go any further. He wanted to turn around and continue looking in another direction, but suddenly, he heard rustling noises coming from the bottom of the cliff.

Guan Lin has been frightened by squirrels once before. This time he was not so scared that he could not move like last time. Although he was still a little scared, he could still carefully lower his body, hide in the grass, and comfort himself at the same time. , It should also be a small animal in the forest or something.

But soon, as the rustling sound got closer, Guan Rin could no longer use this reason to comfort himself, it was not a small animal at all, it was the sound of dense footsteps, the footsteps of a demon.

Guan Lin opened his eyes wide and looked at the demon army quietly advancing in the darkness below. These demons were as hideous and terrifying as he imagined, they looked like humans, but their limbs were deformed and weird, and their protruding teeth were sharp and ugly. There is still raw meat on it that I don't know when I ate it.

He didn't dare to move at all, except for the phantom of the prison, this was the first time he saw a demon in a real sense, and the distance was so close that if he breathed a little harder, he might be discovered.

Guan Lin's blood seemed to be frozen, and the whole cat became an immobile stone.This fearful reaction also saved him in a sense, so that he didn't make any noise when the magic army passed by, and his breathing became very light due to the slowed blood flow.

It wasn't until the magic army completely passed in front of Guan Lin and out of his sight that he finally surfaced from the lake like a person who had been drowning for a long time, taking a deep breath.

Guan Lin was paralyzed on the ground. After the blood flowed again, his dull brain finally regained the ability to think, and he realized that something was wrong.

Demons shouldn't come to this area. There are guards in front of them. How did they come here?If the guards at the sentry post were killed, then Guan Rin shouldn't be able to hear a single movement, and the demons in this team don't have any blood on them, and it looks like they haven't seen any blood tonight.

So, is it a sneak attack by bypassing the sentry?This is not right, how could the devil know the location of their sentry and avoid it perfectly?

Guan Lin didn't know what to do, but he knew that the news would be very important, and he had to go back and tell his sister.

As for the matter of looking for Gu Linyuan...Of course he will not give up. He will continue to look for him after he finishes delivering the news and confirms that there is nothing wrong with the tribe.

Guan Rin started to run back, he changed the road, and changed the road that can avoid the magic army and the distance is shorter.

But this short distance is only relatively short. He ran in a hurry for three hours before he could see the shadow of the tribe from a distance.

Guan Rin originally thought that his speed was already very fast, and he must have come back before the demon army, but when he really came back, he found that something was wrong.

Standing on the hill and looking from a distance, he could see a very bright fire burning in the forest where the tribe was located. This was by no means a bonfire for lighting, but more like... a fire of war.

Guan Lin's heart tightened, how could there be a war in the tribe, this is obviously the safest area, how could the demons bypass the heavy defenses and go directly to the safest rear?

He didn't want to believe it, but he continued to run forward, saw more conspicuous fire, and heard the sound of fighting.

He couldn't lie to himself anymore, this bizarre thing just happened, the demon really bypassed their defense and attacked the rear, just like the team of demon soldiers he encountered earlier.

It's just that the demon team that Guan Lin bumped into before probably moved relatively slowly, and the real vanguard had already arrived at the destination and launched a fierce attack.

The troops of the Yaozu are all deployed on the front line, and the defense force in the rear is very weak. Those who are deployed here are old and weak women and children with little combat effectiveness.

Guan Lin met someone, howling, fleeing, terrified person, he turned into a human form, tried to stop someone to ask what was going on, but the stopped person couldn't tell the reason at all, just kept Repeat: "The devil! The devil is coming! Run!"

After speaking, he pushed Guan Rin away and continued to run forward.

Guan Rin went to stop other people, but the results were similar. These people were frightened by the demon, like a flock of frightened sheep, only knowing to run away helplessly.

Although the defense force within the tribe is very weak, at least it is related to sitting in the town coldly, and the ordinary magic army should not bring such great fear, unless...

Guan Lin looked at the sky. There was a strong demonic energy in the night sky, like black clouds overwhelming the city. It was hard to breathe just by looking directly at it.

This is the Heavenly Demon King Bo Xun. Not only did he lead his own army this time, but he also personally participated in the sneak attack directly into the hinterland of the monster clan.

Just the face-to-face meeting in the prison illusion made Guan Rin so terrified. Now that he saw it with his own eyes, the fear only increased. His body froze again, and he was accidentally knocked down by the fleeing person. reaction.

He stared blankly at the demonic energy in the sky, almost only thinking about running away.

With so many people on the run, it's okay for him to follow, but... Guan Leng...

Thinking of this name, Guan Lin's body, which had been emptied by fear, gained a lot of strength for no reason. He supported the tree, pulled himself up from the ground, and then moved his stiff legs with both hands, like a beginner , stumbling forward with difficulty.

He came to a hill outside the tribe, where he could have a panoramic view of the scene inside the tribe. He saw the warriors of the monster tribe fighting with the demon soldiers in the tribe. Demons kept falling, but the monsters kept falling too. Down.

There are corpses everywhere, and the smell of blood is pungent. At the same time, it is also mixed with the burnt smell of flames. It is disgusting to mix together.

Guan Lin saw many acquaintances, many acquaintances who were still alive during the day, but now they have become corpses engulfed in a sea of ​​​​flames with incomplete limbs.The entire tribe was burning with flames. The houses where the monsters usually lived collapsed in the flames, as did Guan Lin's. Many of his carefully collected toys were turned into fly ash under the high temperature flames.

Guan Rin's brain seemed to be numb, he didn't feel much pain when he looked at this, he only had one thought now, Guan Leng... Where is his sister?

Guan Lin found Guan Leng in the northwest of the tribe. She held the prison in her hand, and eleven inscriptions flashed on the gun, colliding with the magic knife of the Demon King.

The Heavenly Demon King was dressed in black armor, tall and mighty, and the Guan Leng woman was almost half the size of the opponent, looking thin and vulnerable.

But she just used such a thin and vulnerable body to firmly block the Demon King, and together with other warriors of the demon clan, she delayed the pace of the demon army and bought time for the clansmen to escape.

"Sister!" Guan Lin shouted vigorously, and at the same time wanted to jump down the hill and go to this battlefield. He didn't care that his voice at this time might attract the attention of the magic soldiers to attack him, and he didn't care that he was deeply involved in the battle at this moment. It is very likely that he died directly under the knife of the magic soldier.

He is confused at the moment, his brain has no basic ability to judge, he just wants to find his sister, who is his only relative.

Guan Rin was already shouting loudly, but the shouts of the life-and-death fights in this battlefield were even louder, and Guan Leng couldn't hear them.

But in the dark, there will be a feeling between the blood relatives. Guan Leng turned around during the battle, and at a glance he saw the clumsy Guan Lin who was running towards the battlefield step by step as if he couldn't walk.

An anxious look appeared on her brows, as if she had said something to Guan Rin, but Guan Rin couldn't hear him, and he was still running forward stubbornly.

He had already reached the outer circle of the battlefield, and some demon soldiers had noticed him, turned the blade in their hands, and were about to strike at Guan Rin, who didn't know how to resist at all.

At the critical moment, a long spear was placed in front of Guan Lin, and the owner of the long spear overturned the demon soldier with one shot, and ended up killing the opponent neatly.

Xiang Zhen grabbed Guan Rin's collar and roared, "Get out of here! Don't get in the way!"

With that said, he threw Guan Rin out of the ring.

There was someone outside to respond, and after Guan Lin was thrown out, he was half-dragged and half-dragged by other people to run away. Guan Lin didn't know how to resist, like an unconscious statue, he didn't cry out if he was scratched during the escape .

He just stared blankly at the direction of the battlefield. He saw that Xiang Zhen, whom he hated in the past, was surrounded by a dozen demon soldiers. He picked out seven or eight of them, but was chopped down by the remaining one. up the arm.

His left arm was gone, and he yelled in pain, before he could stop the bleeding, and continued to fight with the remaining arm.

He also saw other clansmen fall down one by one in front of the demon soldiers that were several times larger than his own.

Then there is Guan Leng. Before Guan Rin came back, Guan Leng had been fighting with the Demon King for a long time. She became more and more difficult to support, and finally...

In Guan Lin's suddenly constricted pupils, the head that was separated from the body was reflected.

The head flew backwards following the beheading force of the magic knife. After rolling a few times on the ground, the direction of its eyes was facing Guan Rin.

This inexplicably familiar scene began to overlap with the scene deep in Guan Rin's memory. He had seen such a scene before.

Guan Lin suddenly began to gasp violently, struggling like drowning.

He remembered.

Twenty years ago, when Guan Lin was just a cub who hadn't even opened his eyes, his parents took him and some of his tribe members for an outing in the valley.

It was a sunny day, and it should have been a pleasant journey.

But the demon king broke out of prison on this day, and the demon army he led raided the valley.He came prepared, but Guan Rin's father, the leader of Bi An at the time, didn't even bring him to the prison.

The monsters in the valley were completely killed by the demon, and Guan Lin's parents were beheaded to death by the demon king himself.

Only Guan Rin was put on a wooden board by his mother in advance and escaped along the current.

Everyone thought that Guan Rin didn't remember this incident. After all, he couldn't even open his eyes at that time. The first time he opened his eyes was after Guan Leng found him.

But it's not, it's not...

Guan Rin remembered that in the depths of his consciousness, he always remembered that the first scene he saw when he opened his eyes was not Guan Leng's tears, but the scene where his parents were beheaded by the Demon King.

Maybe it's because the child's memory is inherently poor, or maybe it's a kind of self-protection, and he doesn't realize that he remembers it.

But even so, the fear of demons is still like a seed, taking root and sprouting in his heart, growing into vines that bind his hands and feet, and he will not be able to break free for decades from now.

Above the battlefield shrouded in the demonic energy of the Heavenly Demon King, a face suddenly appeared in the black cloud, a frightened and restless face.

There is no body, only a face.

Moreover, a distorted smile appeared on this frightened face at this moment.

It finally found Guan Rin's weakness through this memory illusion. The fear-faced demon soul grinned grinningly in the sky, with a strong demonic energy, whistling through Guan Rin's chest, leaving a brand of fear in the opponent's heart.

This is Guan Lin's deepest fear.
