Sourness

When Brown Tang woke up, the car had already stopped.

Brown Tang straightened up from his seat and found that the car was parked on the side of the road. Liu Zhao, who was driving, and his buddies were all chatting in a circle under the car.

A little further ahead you can see the fork in the road.

Brown Tang thought they were waiting for it to show the way, and waited for it to get out of the car and run around them twice, moving its sore legs and feet, before realizing Liu Zhao's intention to wait here for the police car.

Going forward from here, the road is not easy to walk. They are all roads built many years ago, and many sections of the road have been abandoned.Liu Zhao and the others are going to hand over the brown sugar to the police, then turn around and go on the highway.

Liu Zhao fed Brown Tang water, while touching its ears with some reluctance, "You are the first police dog I have come into close contact with, Brown Tang, we all admire you... no matter what task you perform, you must protect it. Be yourself."

Brown Sugar was moved by his words.

It used to watch TV a lot at home, and also saw the news that stray dogs were captured by bad guys, skinned and sold for meat, but the people it met when it went out called it to get in the car, trying to help it find the owner. It travels together.

How lucky it is.

Brown sugar rubbed against the palm of his hand, and called twice in a low voice.It told them that when it got home, it would let its father treat them to dinner, thank them, and they would meet again.

It's a pity that they couldn't understand what it said, so they just came up to hug it in turn, and took a few photos with it as a souvenir.

When Jing Rong arrived, what he saw was such a picture, Brown Sugar was transferred from one person's embrace to another's embrace like a favored little prince.

Ling Dongzhi, who came with him, was a little speechless. Sure enough, wherever this guy went, he could make a living by brushing his face.

This face-seeking world...

When Brown Tang saw its second father, it froze for a moment, then rushed over crying and howling, and crashed into Ling Dongzhi's arms. While washing his face with his tongue, he whimpered how it was chasing him. How did the bad guy's car almost get lost on the mountain road, how did it catch up to the street and was hungry and thirsty...

Although this silly dog ​​is usually squeamish, it has never left the house, let alone been frightened like this.Ling Dongzhi also had lingering fears about the fact that it almost ran away, and after hugging it for a long time, he was reluctant to let go.

After seeing her parents, Brown Tang finally completely relaxed from her panic state.

Here Jing Rong showed his ID to Liu Zhao and others, and asked them to keep this matter secret.Liu Zhao and the others heard that the mission that Brown Sugar was performing was related to the security department, and they quickly said that they knew the seriousness and would never disrupt the actions of the police and security department halfway.

Ling Dongzhi also expressed his thanks to them, and made an appointment to meet again after returning to Binhai, and then they bid farewell to each other.

Brown Tang, who had been tagged as a police dog, changed cars in a high-spirited manner, and ran to Jing Rong's car.This time, it nestled directly into Ling Dongzhi's arms.

After going through such a thrilling pursuit, it needs its second father to give it a good stroke.

Jing Rong stopped the car at the intersection and put their little sentinel down.

Ling Dongzhi also came down together, and he was also curious about how the owl raised by Mi Yue would send messages to them.

This time, besides the sparrow on the tree, there were also two squirrels who showed them the way.They all live in the woods next to the road. With the opening of provincial roads and expressways one after another, the roads in this area are already in a semi-abandoned state. There are not many vehicles passing by at ordinary times, which has no great impact on the lives of the little squirrels. Influence.

"When the weather is nice, we will come here for a walk." The little squirrel said.

This is why Xiaomao can easily find them as helpers.

Ling Dongzhi and Brown Tang asked the direction of Xiaomao's progress, left a bag of biscuits for the little squirrels as a reward, and hurried to the car to report the situation.

Except for Jing Rong, the people in the car knew the inside story, and the other two teammates only knew that Professor Lin and his students were also carrying pets with them. They thought that Brown Tang got out of the car to confirm the mark left by his companions. Or something.

But this way of advancing is undoubtedly very troublesome, and the progress is also very slow.Some intersections are quiet, and there is no living thing to ask for directions at all, and the delay will be even longer at this time.

Ling Dongzhi and Brown Tang had to go around in circles looking for the message left by Xiaomao.

Fortunately, the birds that Xiaomao encountered during the flight basically nested nearby. They also have a fixed activity area, and they usually don't go too far.

And after passing through a few intersections, Ling Dongzhi also carefully found an arrow-like mark left by the little owl on the tree trunk—it can't be such a coincidence, all the trees growing at the turning point are about two feet high The place was scratched out such traces.

And this mark is still very fresh, and the size is the same.

But doubts are doubts, whether this mark is left by Xiao Mao, Ling Dongzhi is not completely sure.He let the brown sugar smell it carefully, but the smell can't last long in the outdoor environment.Brown Sugar has not been trained in this area, so it is not certain if this is the case.

Therefore, this mark can only be used as a reference, and at the same time make a comparison with the information provided by the sparrows.

After stopping again and again to ask for directions, Jing Rong was finally sure that these people must be taking turns driving.They didn't stop to rest, so Xiaomao couldn't find a chance to turn around and look for brown sugar.

It is more and more likely that the direction of progress is Lingxi Mountain, but Lingxi Mountain is not a park, there is no front door and back door, and there are too many ways to enter the mountain.

The possibility of intercepting people before they enter the mountain is almost zero.

At dusk, the car carrying Lin Qingshan and Mi Yue drove into a remote town.

Mi Yue's first impression of the town was that it was quiet.

It can be seen that the road is newly built, and there are two or three-storey small buildings on both sides, and it looks like it was built in recent years.But for unknown reasons, most of the shops facing the street are closed. The blue-green iron anti-theft door is pulled down, and the bottom is hung with a lock. Basically, it looks like this.

Along the way, Mi Yue only saw two or three grocery stores still open, and there were very few pedestrians walking on the road, and there were only a few people, all of whom were in a hurry.

Mi Yue is a frequent visitor to Lingxi Mountain. She knows that there are many villages and towns in the mountain. Because young people go to work in big cities, the villages gradually decline.

Perhaps the same is true of this small town.

At the end of the street is a small noodle shop. There are four or five sets of wooden tables and chairs in the lobby. An elderly woman leans behind the counter and watches TV, holding an elderly yellow cat in her arms.

The car was parked outside the door, and the driver and Lao Jie went in to eat in turn. When they came back, they brought another piece of fried noodles for the master and apprentice.

In addition to fried noodles, there are several slices of sauced beef in each person's lunch box.

Mi Yue left all the beef to Xiao Mao.Xiaomao is also hungry. Besides beef, he also ate a lot of noodles, which he doesn't usually touch at home.

While eating, Mi Yue saw the proprietress' yellow cat through the car window.The old cat stared at the little Mao in the car with a pair of big glazed eyes.

Mi Yue's heart moved slightly, she considered whether to leave a message for the old cat, hesitated for a while, and gave up again.It is still unknown when their rescuers will be able to catch up, whether they will take this road when they catch up, and whether they will be able to meet this cat when they take this road...

There are too many uncontrollable factors.

And it is not so easy to communicate through consciousness. A few conversations with Xiao Mao gave him a headache all the way.I don't know how to replenish this energy consumption as soon as possible.

Miyue felt that he should reserve some of his abilities, and use them only when he was dying.

After eating, the car continued to move forward, and soon left this remote town with no vitality far behind.

The setting sun slowly fell into the mountains, and the heat of the day had dissipated.There was still a veil-like crimson color in the sky, but the shadows of the trees beside the road had dimmed.

Behind the tree shadows, the figures of the mountains emerged silently.

"Spirit Mountain."

Lao Jie, who was sitting in the front row, murmured in awe.

For the master and apprentice, going home is always a happy thing.They would have been happier if they hadn't returned under such circumstances.

Xiaomao also became excited, gurgled twice, and got out along the gap of the car window.

Mi Yue subconsciously smiled behind the mask.Being able to go home in such an unexpected way, for Xiaomao, there was finally something happy in this miserable night and day.

Into the mountains, the road began to become bumpy.

The trees in the forest are dense, and as soon as the sun goes down, the night can't wait to appear.The sky was still a bright hue in the gaps between the branches and leaves, but there were shadows around them.

When the headlights were turned on, it was even more difficult to see anything on both sides of the mountain road.You can only see groups of black shadows, like monsters lurking in the night, staring at the prey bumping forward in the middle of the mountain road with malicious intent.

Mi Yue thought, this is his territory.Although he was tied up, he might not have no chance of winning.

Driving under such conditions, it was impossible for the people sitting in the car to see what was coming. Mi Yue and Lin Qingshan simply slept in the back seat.

On the contrary, the two people in the front row, one had to drive and the other had to look at the captives, both had to work hard.

This walk is all night.

When the sky was about to dawn, Miyue opened her eyes in a daze, and found that in front of them, a small mountain village appeared vaguely on the hillside not far away.

He turned his head to look at Lin Qingshan, but saw him looking thoughtfully at the village that seemed to be hidden in the morning mist, as if he suddenly understood something.

The dogs in the village barked far away.

Cooking smoke curled up, and the morning fog slowly dissipated in the gradually brightening morning light.

The door of the small courtyard near the mountain road opened, and a young man in sportswear came out.

The first time Mi Yue saw him, he felt familiar, and then he heard Lin Qingshan snorted softly.

In Mi Yue's ears, this sound had the meaning of "so it is" and "sure enough", and there was also a hint of mockery.

Mi Yue's heart skipped a beat.Immediately afterwards, he saw a tall figure walking out of the yard behind the young man.

The author has something to say:

I saw the master~~
