Xue Ming was born in a black wolf clan.
It is the only alien in the group, because it was born with snow-white hair, which is different from other wolves in the group. The black wolves didn't think it was the same kind, so they expelled it.
The newborn wolf cub was abandoned in a wasteland like this.
In the Western Wilderness where the weak prey on the strong, without the protection of the ethnic group, without strong strength, it is equivalent to being sentenced to death.
It will become food for other monsters and even humans.
The little wolf doesn't understand anything, but survival is a beast's innate instinct. It learns to hide itself carefully, eat things that other monsters don't eat, and survive by relying on sewage and insects.
Maybe it was lucky, it escaped many crises by chance, escaped from other monsters time and time again, and finally grew up slowly, with some self-protection strength, although it is not recognized by the same kind, but what is it? A wolf demon is far from being comparable to a weak human being.
Slowly it no longer only knew how to hide, but began to tentatively hunt and kill other monsters, humans...anything that could be eaten.
So many years passed.
Other wolves come and go in packs, and it is always a lone wolf, but it doesn't matter, it is used to living alone, and does not need a pack or a partner.
Unfortunately, luck doesn't always favor it.
One day, it fought with a tiger demon. The tiger demon was not its opponent, and fled into a forest. It chased the tiger demon into the forest, but was ambushed by accident. The other partners, more than a dozen tiger demons besieged it, and it quickly fell into a disadvantage!
It had wounds all over its body, and was dripping with blood from being bitten, but no one could help it. It ran away desperately, and finally came to the edge of a cliff.
It jumped down without hesitation.
What it thought at that moment was that it would rather die than be the tiger demon's food.
Under the cliff is a rushing river, it broke several trees, and finally fell heavily on the ground, all the bones in his body were broken, lying on the riverside dying, blood stained the ground and river water, and the cold penetrated into the bone marrow, It knows it is going to die.
Just when it had given up hope and was about to face death, suddenly, it saw a light purple figure slowly walking towards it.
The figure gently picked it up, and it finally saw the other person's face clearly.
A human woman.
But she is different from anyone in the Western Wilderness. Xueming has seen the humans here, those humans are yellow and thin, dirty and gray, weak and ugly, their eyes are cloudy and full of calculation and cowardice, they are not even as good as it Such a beast.
But this woman, her face is so clean, her eyes are clear and beautiful, and her purple clothes are spotless, even if she walks through the muddy road, she is like the cleanest flower, like a fairy in the sky.
It was a beauty that Xueming had never seen before.
The woman looked at it and sighed softly, her fingers were warm and soft, brushed the wound medicine over its broken bones, and fed it with clean dew, her eyes were so pitiful and gentle.
Then the woman left.
Xueming came back to life, and in order to heal his injuries, he dragged his scarred body and left here, heading for the desolate snow mountain.
It was near the junction of yin and yang, and it was desolate and lonely. Even monsters would not bother to go there, but it was just suitable for it as a lone wolf.
It recovered from its injuries quickly, but it did not leave the snow mountain, but stayed here. At first it was just for survival, but later it gradually became a habit, and it liked the tranquility here, without any monsters or people to disturb it.
This place became Xueming's territory.
Occasionally, monsters and humans who broke into this place were killed and eaten by it. Perhaps because it was stronger than before, no one dared to enter here gradually, and this place became a forbidden place for monsters and humans.
It doesn't need a partner, it doesn't need a clan, it doesn't need anything, and that's fine.
Occasionally it would also think of the human woman.
But it never saw her again.
It knows that they are not the existence of a world at all, and may never see them again.
Xueming has lived here alone for hundreds of years.
Until one day, a human child was sent in.
The child's hands and feet were tied, and the humans left him and quickly fled here.
Xueming thought about it, this should be food given to it by humans.
In fact, it has not gone out to hunt for a long time. It was about a hundred years or two hundred years ago. It found that it did not need to eat, nor would it starve or die. Its skin is harder than rocks, and it can break a big tree with one paw... It is no longer that weak little wolf that will be reduced to fish at any time, and even eating has become dispensable...
It knows that monsters and humans are afraid of it.
But it never cared about these things.
However, why did those humans send food to it
Xueming silently observed the child.
The child looks very ugly, uglier than anyone it has ever seen, but Xue Ming doesn't think so, in its eyes, human beings are another species, and it can't tell the beauty of human beings at all In its eyes, ugly and ugly are similar.
If beauty must be given a concept, the woman who saved it once has all the imaginations about beauty in its heart.
As for this child, it is so ugly that even it can be distinguished, it is considered a different kind.
Maybe it was too ugly, so it was discarded.
Just like myself back then, because I was a different kind, I was expelled from the group and left to fend for myself.
It turns out that humans are the same.
Will drive out the heterogeneous among them.
Even crueler than beasts sometimes.
They knew that they were here, but they deliberately sent the child here, obviously hoping that the child would die.
Xueming watched it silently for a long time, it doesn't like people invading its territory, and it doesn't need others to bring it food.
Finally, it went out.
Step by step to the front of the child.
A dying child who is about to die, should he kill it and throw it away, or just throw it out
Xueming thought about it.
Just then, the child spoke.
His small face was flushed red from the cold, but he looked at him without the slightest fear or fear, but very calm and peaceful. He begged in a weak voice: "Can you eat from my head?"
Xueming has seen many human beings pleading before death, and many wild beasts struggling to die, but no matter whether it is a human or a beast, they are all terrified when facing death.
It's the first time I've heard such a request.
Maybe it was too absurd to make it feel surprised, Xueming leaned over, pretending to be fierce on purpose, and asked coldly: "Why?"
The child said, "It won't hurt for long."
That was the case, but Xueming still couldn't understand why he wasn't afraid of himself.
The child said: "If you are afraid, will you not eat me?"
Xueming said, "No."
The child said, "It's useless to be afraid, so I'm not afraid."
The reason is this, but it is not easy to do it, Xue Ming looked at the other party.
A poor wretch outcast by the Clan, the only thing he can do is beg a beast to start eating from his head...
Xue Ming glanced at the child's thin body, showing a mocking look, suddenly cut the rope that bound him, turned around and left from here.
Although the food was dirty, thin, and ugly, it looked unpalatable, but it would not have been so picky back then.
But now, it is long past the time of starvation.
You are lucky to have a time when I am not hungry.
The child had nowhere to go and was left on the snow mountain.
If it was another intruder, Xueming would definitely not tolerate it, but for this harmless, abandoned child, it was rare for him to let him stay acquiescingly.
To Xueming, the existence of a child is not much different from a bird in the forest or a bug in a cave, as long as it is not disturbed.
But the child thinks a lot. He is probably afraid that he will eat him, and he tries his best to please himself.
One day Xueming walked out of the cave, and suddenly found a neat row of fruits on the open space in front of him.
Xueming glanced lazily, ate a few, and kicked the rest away with one paw.
Later, when he went out every day, he found that there were fruits quietly placed at the entrance of the cave, and they happened to be the ones he had eaten.
Later, when it comes back from a walk, it will find a cave that has never been tidied up, and the weeds at the entrance of the cave have been completely cleared.
Later, it found that as long as it was away and came back, its nest would be covered with clean and soft leaves.
after that…
The child is almost never in front of its eyes, but it seems to be everywhere, carefully doing what he can do.
If Xueming wanted to, it could easily catch this bug, eat it, and kill him, but it didn't do that, but let the child do these things. Although it never needed these things, it was strange. Not annoying.
Although it is only a weak and humble human being, it is the first time that someone has tried to take care of it in every possible way...
Xueming acquiesced to all of this.
He got involved in its life little by little.
Like a trickle, silently.
Be the only existence that lives in its territory and is accepted and allowed by it.
More than a year passed like this.
One day, Xueming sat on the snowy ground basking in the sun and scratched his back with his paws. Suddenly, a child came out from the corner. The voice said, "I'll help you, can I?"
Xue Ming looked cold.
The child came over cautiously, and gently brushed its back with his small palm.
Just where it didn't scratch.
Xueming squinted his eyes, and looked at the child with a cold and sharp gaze, he must have observed it for a long time.
The child is very weak, his slender wrist is not as thick as a single tooth, even with all his strength, he can't hurt it at all, Xue Ming slowly closed his eyes and let the child approach him.
Since that day, the child started appearing from time to time.
If it just feels comfortable, it doesn't bother to move. Sometimes it doesn't scratch properly, and if it's too light or heavy, it just slaps it away with a random paw, but it just slaps it lightly, and the child vomits blood from the beating, and can't get up for a long time. Xueming was extremely impatient, why is she so weak
But even if he didn't do well, before Xueming raised his paw, he would think about it, and finally put it down, this weak guy can't shoot at all, it's really annoying.
Time passed year by year.
Children grow into teenagers.
grow up around it.
The boy will never scratch the wrong place again, and he will not be so afraid of it. He will pick fruits and clean dew every day, patiently help it clean the cave, spread soft leaves, and then accompany it to bask in the snow , patiently and gently stroking its hair...
The existence of a teenager has gradually become a part of its life.
Two abandoned aliens live together in the lonely and deserted snow mountain.
Time passed day by day.
Year after year passed.
Xueming thought that it would live here forever with the boy.
That woman appeared in front of it again.
The woman was still as beautiful as it remembered, as if time hadn't left any traces, Xueming stared blankly at the woman, it never thought that they would have a chance to meet again.
At this moment, it felt flustered for the first time, and didn't even know how to face it.
In fact, hundreds of years ago, it was able to change form, but it didn't like being a human being, and it didn't think there was any good in being a human being, so it never changed form, preferring its original body.
But in order not to make the woman feel uncomfortable, it took a rare human form.
The woman told him that she was going to Wangchuan, the underworld, and asked him how to get through here.
Xueming frowned, it knew the entrance to the underworld, but it was very dangerous, even if it approached it would be injured, it didn't want the woman to go there.
But the woman stood firm.
Xue Ming thought about it, and decided to go with the woman, so that even if she was in danger, she could still be of help.
The woman did not refuse its companionship.
Together they came to the entrance to the underworld.
At this time Xueming heard the movement, it turned around, and found that the young man was chasing after it, fell down, got up again, followed it silently, never giving up...
Only then did Xueming remember.
There is also a clown slave who was forgotten at home by it.
But the underworld is too dangerous, it's not something a young man can bear, Xueming still has to protect a woman, and he doesn't have the energy to protect a weak human being, so it coldly let him go back.
But the boy refused to back down no matter what.
Even if you would rather die, follow it.
Xueming felt extremely impatient, and didn't understand why he had to follow her, even if he did, it would be nothing but a burden and trouble.
The boy could not go away even if he scolded him, nor could he drive him away.
Xueming lazily let him follow her.
The chilly air in the ice wasteland is bone-chilling, and the woman is a monk, so it's okay, Xueming's skin is thick and fleshy, it doesn't matter much, except for that human boy, whose face is blue and bloodless from the cold , as if every step is difficult...
Xueming's eyes were sneering and cold, he really overestimated his own strength, and even told him not to follow, this is just asking for his own death.
It didn't care about that humble human being, and focused on accompanying the woman.
Occasionally looking back, the boy it thought would be left behind, would be left behind, but every time he followed with difficulty...
Finally, they came to the edge of Wangchuan.
It was also the first time for Xueming to come here. The woman waved her hand, and a small boat appeared in front of her. She turned her head and said to it: "There are ghosts in Wangchuan, they will tear and kill all living things, so don't come with me."
Xueming shook his head, since it was so dangerous, it couldn't leave.
It must be with her.
The woman smiled and said nothing more.
Xue Ming followed without hesitation.
And that weak little slave followed up without knowing what to do.
Sure enough, as soon as they boarded the boat, the grieving ghosts in the river smelled the smell of flesh and blood, and rushed over one after another, trying to capsize their boat.
The woman used spells, Xueming turned into a prototype, and fought hard.
These resentful ghosts are not very strong alone, but they are endless, and the deeper they go to the depths of Wangchuan, the more powerful the resentful ghosts become. When they swarm up, even the woman and Xueming can't hold on.
Too dangerous.
Xueming wanted to take the girl back to the shore, but they walked too deep, and the ghosts pulled the boat to prevent them from landing. Xueming's body was bitten by the ghosts, dripping with blood, and it began to feel exhausted. No, are they going to die here...
At this moment, Xueming felt someone lightly touch it.
It turned around and met the boy's ugly face, but his eyes were clean and clear, and he said seriously, "You will be fine."
Xueming's eyes were cold and impatient.
The boy can't help at all, so what's the point of saying such things now
It was about to turn around, but at this moment, it saw the young man jumping into the icy river without hesitation!
Seeing the fresh flesh and blood, countless resentful ghosts rushed forward. The young man floated in the water, glanced at him, and exhausted his last strength to push the boat to the shore. In the next moment, he was swallowed and drowned by countless resentful ghosts.
Taking advantage of this moment, the woman dragged Xue Ming, who was absent-minded, back to the shore.
And Xueming was just in a daze, watching the calm river surface return.
Boy, disappeared.
Why? When you insisted on coming over, didn't you think of this a long time ago
So weak, but still wants to take care of me, protect me...
I don't need any of these.
I don't need you to sacrifice your life for me.
Xueming stared fixedly at the river in front of him, but after looking at it for a long, long time, there was no movement in the river, and it began to become very restless, walking back and forth on the bank, and finally, it tried to put one of its paws into the river. In the river, the resentful ghost immediately appeared, biting its front paws so that the blood was dripping.
The woman grabbed it and said to it: Go back.
They failed.
Died by the devouring ghost of Wangchuan, unable to be reincarnated or reincarnated, that boy is no longer there.
But Xueming didn't want to leave, its clown slave was still in the river, he was so weak... he would definitely die without him.
He was waiting for it to save him.
Ten days later, the woman shook her head and left alone.
Xueming stayed alone beside the River of Forgetfulness.
It is very angry and unhappy, who allowed you to make your own decisions, who allowed you to jump, told you not to come, why did you follow
Overwhelmed.
Xueming was very irritable, he didn't believe his little slave, so he just died like this, the little slave was so stubborn, even if he was abandoned by others, he walked all the way through the icy wasteland, he still didn't die, why did he die so simply now Well... why on earth are you still not coming back? No wonder you are blaming me, I didn't want you before
Xueming tried again and again to go down the River of Forgetfulness.
In the beginning, I could only test it by the river.
Later, you can go in slowly and hold on for a second or two.
Then I can last for a few minutes, a quarter of an hour...
Every time it came back from the river, it was covered in scars, its fur was torn and bloody, but it didn't seem to feel it, it entered again and again, looking for it again and again...
But after all can't find anything.
Its little slave, really won't come back.
It stayed on the edge of the River of Forgetfulness for three full years, and then left.
It's just a little slave who can't control himself, so he just dies, it doesn't care at all.
Xueming dragged his bruised body back to the snow mountain where they lived.
Perhaps because it had been away for too long, the place was actually occupied by other monsters.
It's a group of hyenas.
In order to protect the territory, the group of hyenas swarmed up to it, and Xue Ming's mood became even worse. He killed the group of monster dogs completely, and brutally tore their bodies apart.
This is its territory, and no one can take it away.
Xueming returned to the long-lost cave.
Lived the quiet days before.
Every day sleep groggy.
But when it woke up, it couldn't see the fruit placed in front of it.
When I came back from the walk, there was no clean dew next to it.
The cave where I live is getting thicker and dustier, no one cleans it, and the weeds at the door are full again, tall and long, and the cave has never been covered with soft and quiet leaves...
Even when it was laying there basking in the sun, there was no little slave who gently stroked its hair gently.
Nothing left.
Xueming didn't think the little slave was so important before, his existence was silent, quiet, even if he didn't pay attention, he wouldn't be aware of his existence.
Xueming always felt that he was dispensable.
But now it discovers that its little slaves exist everywhere in its world.
Even if you don't pay attention, you can't ignore it.
Xueming always fell asleep and woke up suddenly. When he turned his head, he couldn't see the little slave lying beside him. He went to every corner of the snow mountain, and there was no trace of the little slave. Then he remembered that his The little slave had already stayed in the River of Forgetfulness.
To save it.
Never came back.
Here it is alone again.
It thought that it had already gotten used to this kind of coldness and didn't need companions or company, but after the little slave left, it found that it was used to the little slave by its side, so it couldn't accept this kind of loneliness anymore.
It may even start to learn to think.
If it hadn't left here on that day, and hadn't gone to Wangchuan with the woman, the result would have been different...
Before that, it never doubted any of its decisions.
Every time Xueming dreams, he will dream of the little slave, dreaming of the little slave smiling at it, picking fruit for it, helping it clean the cave, basking in the snow with it... Then resolutely, jumping off the River of Forgetfulness left it...
Xueming felt very distressed, and didn't even understand why he was always like this...why he kept dreaming about all this.
It started not to sleep.
And everything familiar on the snow will only make it feel irritable and tormented.
It finally walked down the snow mountain.
It thought, maybe it just lacks a slave, maybe it has other slaves it likes, so it won't always think about the little slave...
The outside world is very big, full of monsters, full of killing and blood.
Xueming walks in the Western Wilderness, if anyone provokes it, it will kill them all, no matter if it is a human or a monster, maybe because of the three years in Wangchuan, its body is stronger than before, any monsters and demons can Not its opponent.
Because to it, those attacks are not as good as one ten thousandth of the grieving ghost in Wangchuan, so it feels neither pain nor itching.
Gradually, as long as those monsters and demon cultivators saw it, they would avoid it from a distance, and would not approach it within a hundred miles.
Xueming is still looking for the little slave.
Ugly little human slaves.
It found a lot of ugly human beings, but apart from their ugliness, those human beings had no resemblance to little slaves. As long as Xue Ming took a second look, he would feel annoyed, so he killed them all.
It wandered like this for more than a hundred years, and once by chance, it had a fight with a demon cultivator named Bai Cang, that demon cultivator was very powerful, and they both suffered losses.
After that day, monster beasts began to take refuge in him and regard him as the demon master.
In order to please it, they sent rare treasures, gourmet beauties, and all the best things in the Western Wilderness to it.
But Xueming just felt impatient, it didn't need these at all.
It only wants little slaves.
Those monsters racked their brains and found that all the gifts were thrown away. Later, they finally came to their senses and collected ugly slaves everywhere to offer it.
It was rare for Xueming to take a look. Instead of directly killing and throwing them out, he accepted those ugly slaves. It looked at the slaves one by one, but no, none of them, none of them were its little slaves...
It was nowhere to be found again, an identical little slave.
Xueming returned to the snow mountain again and lived a lonely life.
No one can replace its little slave.
Little slaves are unique.
It will wait for his return.
The monsters didn't dare to disturb it, so they set up camp at the foot of the mountain, and collected some ugly slaves to offer every year, and didn't do other superfluous things anymore.
Xue Ming said no more, those monsters still continued to send them away, but later they said too lazily, every time an ugly slave came up and they didn't like it, they would kill them and throw them out.
Otherwise, it nests in a cave and sleeps.
When falling asleep, the little slave will smile at it in a dream, and caress it gently...
Day after day, year after year.
Every time Xueming opens his eyes and looks at the empty cave, he will be disappointed, but it will not leave here, this is their home, and it will wait for its little slave here...
One day, the little slave will return.
It will always be here, waiting for him to come home.
