The Beast World's Pet: The Gorgeous Beast Husband is Too Tempting
Chapter 69 Curiosity killed the cat
The night is dark and the owls are disturbing people.
"Crack..."
Hu Yang stepped on a dead leaf with his front foot, making a rustling sound. The tiny sound startled him and made his body tremble.
Many days had passed since the bloody memory, and his broken tail had already scabbed over. But as soon as he crossed this invisible boundary, the bloody and horrifying scene of that day came at him like a flood.
The sharp pain shot through his spine and throughout his body from the severed tail.
His limbs trembled uncontrollably, and he retracted his feet. "Axia, why don't we take a detour? This is the territory of the Gray Wolf Tribe..."
Hu Xia glanced at him, his ugly face twitched slightly, and he went around to the right and whispered, "Then we have to hurry up, keep up."
After saying this, the two of them quickly walked towards a fork in the road.
"Guess they've learned their lesson. Next time they cross the line, there won't be a second tail to stop them." Luo Xiao said with a sneer.
Lu Ming looked at the two people walking away and immediately followed them.
"Hey, where are you going?" Luo Xiao chased after him.
Lu Ming's eyes were fixed on the two gray shadows in front of him: "Hu Xia, his broken tail has grown back!"
: "How is it possible!?" Luo Xiao then noticed that there was indeed a big furry tail hanging behind Hu Xia.
: "There must be something wrong with them!"
Lu Ming was weaving between the intertwined branches of the big trees, and Luo Xiao was following behind him.
After passing through the dense forest, the southern hunting ground of the Naya Plateau is in front of us, which is also the place where the wolf pack hunted before.
Hu Xia and Hu Yang slowed down and stopped behind a huge rock in the hunting ground.
Lu Ming immediately blocked Luo Xiao's way. Luo Xiao saw two figures hiding at the foot of the huge rock in front of him and immediately understood.
The two of them crouched down and hid behind the branches and leaves.
Hu Xia leaned on the edge of the boulder, looked back behind him, and after making sure there was no movement, he continued to rush forward.
The four of them kept a safe distance, two in front and two behind.
"Just ahead is Longling Mountain..." Lu Ming whispered, his eyes never leaving the two figures in front of him.
"I heard from my brother that there are frequent earthquakes in that mountain, so people usually don't go there for hunting... Are you still going?"
The altitude of Longling Mountain is not too high, but the mountain is steep and difficult to walk on, and there are often earthquakes in that area, and the mountain shakes as well. If there were no special reasons, Hu Xia and his companions would not have gone to so much trouble to take the risk to come here.
Although the wound on Lu Ming's tail had completely healed, his balance was much worse than before. He had the lowest natural ability among the beastmen, and with the broken tail, although Yan Qiling didn't care, the broken tail became a thorn in his heart...
He swung the stump of his tail behind him and said, "Follow!"
There were a lot of gravels on the mountain road, which made noises when stepped on, so the two of them had to keep a distance from him...
When we reached a fork in the road, Hu Xia and Hu Yang were nowhere to be seen...
The rubble on the ground covered most of the soil below, leaving no trace at all.
We could identify it by smell, but this fork in the road happened to be a windy vent and the smell had long been blown away.
The two had to act separately.
: "I'll go this way..." Lu Ming looked at one of the forks in the road.
: "Yeah." Luo Xiao then headed towards another fork in the road leading to the woods.
The fork in the road that Lu Ming chose was extremely steep. After climbing over the steep slope with great difficulty, he finally stepped onto flat ground.
Before he could stand firmly, the wind whistled past his ears, carrying the chill of the mountain top and scratching his face painfully.
Lu Ming looked around and saw endless mountains all around him and cliffs thousands of feet high at his feet.
The cold wind from the top of the cliff made his body sway, and the nearly vertical stone wall under his feet was so deep that he could not see the bottom.
The altitude of Longling Mountain is not very high, but it is only compared with the surrounding mountains. If you fall from here, being smashed to pieces is the least of your worries...
: "They should go that way. There is only one road leading to this cliff..."
Lu Ming withdrew his gaze from the bottom of the cliff, turned around and rushed towards Luo Xiao...
"Kara".
A piece of rubble fell along the cliff, making a slight sound.
Lu Ming's heartbeat pounded, and his breathing hitched slightly, "They're...under the cliff...!??"
: "Are they going to die? Especially Hu Yang! His tail is broken and his balance is very poor. What on earth is worth him risking his life to go down!?"
Luming turned back to the edge of the cliff, leaned over, and then half of his body was stretched out to look down...
This cliff was like a crack in the earth. The abyss extending from the cliff wall made a shadow appear before his eyes. His heart pounded uncontrollably against his chest.
The residual voices of Hu Xia and the others were blown away by the wind from the bottom of the rock wall: "It's right down there!...Hold on...As long as...you can..."
Lu Ming leaned forward as much as he could, trying to hear their entire conversation...
A strong wind blew, and Lu Ming's body tilted. He didn't expect the wind on the top of the cliff to be so strong, and he immediately lost his balance!
He swung his tail desperately, but unfortunately the broken tail was not enough to stabilize his body which had already fallen into the air.
Lu Ming felt a chill on his back and then he slid down.
He struggled to grab the rock wall with his four claws. The loose gravel became smaller and smaller as it fell like a runaway meteor...
At the critical moment, Lu Ming hooked his front paws on a protruding rock and temporarily hung on the huge mouth.
"Who!!" Hu Xia shouted loudly, then looked up at the cliff.
There was a particularly prominent rock above his position, which blocked his view above. The only sounds he could hear were the whistling wind and the sound of falling rocks...
Lu Ming's heart tightened suddenly, and after a second, it beat like a drum: "Oh no, have I been discovered?" His body was numb from the cold wind.
Lu Ming was also impressed by himself for actually thinking about whether he had been discovered. He looked at the claws that were sliding down inch by inch.
A strong wind blew through, and Luming's body was suspended in the air, fluttering violently like a piece of rag. It was unknown how long it could hold on...
"Give me your hand!" Luo Xiao's voice was like an arrow piercing the clouds and coming against the wind.
His black hair mixed with silver-gray was fluttering in the wind... He grabbed the vines with one hand and reached out to Luming with the other.
Luo Xiao didn't find any trace of Hu Xia and the others on that road, so he hurried towards Lu Ming. After hearing the sound of falling rocks, he found Lu Ming crumbling on the cliff.
Unfortunately, he fell more than ten meters, and Luo Xiao had no way to rescue him. He could only quickly return to the woods and find a vine.
The vine was not long enough, and there was no time to go back to search, so Luo Xiao could only change into human form and grab the end of the vine and try his best to reach out to Lu Ming. He tried several times but was always just a hair's breadth away. The wind was so strong that cold sweat oozed from Luo Xiao's forehead...
Lu Ming's paws were already numb, and he didn't know how many seconds he could hold on, but he knew that if he continued to waste time, Luo Xiao's human form would be exhausted!
Taking advantage of another gust of strong wind, Lu Ming's body was blown against the stone wall. He kicked hard with his hind legs, and a gray shadow turned into a human shape in the air, with his two hands tightly clasped together.
At that moment, besides the whistling sound of the wind, the only sounds were the two people's rapid breathing.
After a while, a head with silver-gray and black hair emerged from the edge of the cliff, and the two climbed to a safe area one after another...
Lu Ming was lying on the flat ground at the top of the cliff, breathing in the cold air. He turned his head and looked at Luo Xiao, who was lying next to him with his chest heaving violently: "Thank you..."
The shocking scene just now lingered for a long time, and a low roar continued to sound in Lu Ming's brain...
I don't know how long I lay there, but the roar was getting closer and closer... and more and more real...
The gravel on the ground began to shake and bounce, and the ground began to sway...
Lu Ming got up in fear: "Ah Xiao... Quick! Run!!!"
