Chapter 1013: This Is Not A Black Dog, This Is A Wolf

It was already late at night and the moon was hidden behind the dark clouds.

To travel faster, Wei Cang let the guards take a remote but shortcut mountain path.

The mountain path was slender and narrow, and it was also relatively bumpy.

Gu Nuo’er couldn’t fall asleep. Her big eyes were also as bright as the Milky Way at night.

The child leaned against the window and felt the speed of the carriage.

She called out softly, “Dudu~”

When Wei Cang heard her call him from the front, he felt extremely helpless.

Along the way, the little princess chatted with them a lot!

When traveling outside, he needed to be highly focused.

However, if he ignored Gu Nuo’er, she would continue to call him like a kitten.

“Dudu!” As expected, the child called out again.

Wei Cang had no choice but to turn his horse around and go to the carriage window. “What instructions does Your Highness have?”

Gu Nuo’er’s small face was fair and red, her soft hair was black, and she looked like a cute and obedient child.

She pouted and said, “There’s more and more fog in the mountains. We can’t even see the way clearly. Should we rest on the spot?”

Wei Cang shook his head and said seriously, “This place is in the wilderness and I’m afraid it won’t be safe. If there are wild beasts, it won’t be easy to deal with them.”

The child’s watery eyes glistened. “Hmph, if you don’t listen to me, you’ll regret it sooner or later.”

Suddenly!

Yuan Gu, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped his horse.

The horse raised its hooves and neighed violently.

The guards and carriage behind him had no choice but to stop.

Gu Nuo’er fell forward like a small ball.

With a smack, she looked like a small pink ball that had fallen!

The child sat up and complained fiercely, “What’s going on?!”

Wei Cang immediately became vigilant and rode to Yuan Gu’s side.

“Why did you stop?”

Yuan Gu looked a little frightened. He pointed ahead. “Commission-in-Chief, look what that is.”

Wei Cang turned around.

The mountain fog permeated and the path ahead could no longer be seen clearly.

However, there was a small black shadow hidden in the fog. It looked like a rock but didn’t look like it.

It stood there steadily and they had no idea what it was.

Wei Cang frowned, his heart beating like a drum.

At this moment, he noticed that the mountain was really quiet and strange.

There wasn’t even the cry of a jackdaw anymore.

The night wind blew slowly. It was less hot than the summer heat and more cold.

Although Wei Cang felt that it was strange, he still gritted his teeth and said, “Give me the torch. There are so many of us. Why would we be afraid of a damn thing that suddenly appeared?”

He took the guard’s torch, got off the horse, and walked forward cautiously and slowly.

The fog was illuminated by the flames layer by layer.

The small black figure was also revealed.

When everyone saw it clearly, they were stunned.

Wei Cang was the closest and couldn’t help but widen his eyes in surprise.

The small black shadow in front of him was not anything else, but…

“Why is there a little black dog here?!” Yuan Gu walked to Wei Cang’s side and asked in confusion.

Wei Cang stared at the small animal in front of him and scolded with a frown, “Open your eyes and take a good look. This is a wolf cub.”

The two of them lowered their heads and sized it up.

This wolf cub was only the size of an ordinary domestic black dog.

Its fur was black and its eyes were like black pearls in the dark night, emitting a faint black light.

It was not afraid of people at all. It just sat there quietly with a steady posture.

The way it looked at Yuan Gu and Wei Cang was as if it was looking at a tree or a rock.

Yuan Gu was a little afraid.

“I once heard from my mother that wolves are the leader of all beasts. They are the guiding gods in the mountains. They night wolves with pure black fur, especially, are famous for their cruelty.

“If they appear, it means that something ominous is about to happen…”

As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Cang hit the back of his head.

“If you continue to spout nonsense, don’t come back to Xili with me.”
