Osmanthus fragrans

At dawn the next day, Han Jinsong opened his eyes and saw the remnants of the footprints on the mud. At the same time, he checked the surrounding things, and sure enough, something was missing again, but this time it was a circle of cowhide rope.

First he stole the jerky, and then he stole the cowhide rope. I don't know what else this creature, which always bumps into him while he sleeps, will steal next time?

Is this thief-like creature really the legendary beast of the Northland?

Han Jinsong scratched his head, thinking that rare beasts and the like might be legends, but it was true that his things had been stolen repeatedly.

He carefully looked at the remaining footprints. These footprints were very similar to those of the human race. He even stepped his own foot into the footprints curiously, only to find that the other person's feet were obviously bigger than his own.

In this way, a vague figure was gradually outlined in Han Jinsong's mind.

According to the depth and size of these footprints, he can conclude that the opponent must be over eight feet tall, must have broad shoulders and broad shoulders, and a ferocious face.

Don't ask Han Jinsong how he figured out that the other party must have a ferocious face, because he knows that the bigger the fish in the sea, the scarier the appearance. If such a law is used to describe the mysterious beasts in the Northland, it must not Incorrect.

But Han Jinsong didn't know that this strange beast that came to steal his things again and again was not like those big fishes in the sea.

A tall figure rushed into the woods in a hurry, the dark red hair fluttering in the wind behind his naked body, looking coquettish and moving.

The snowy sun was rising, and the cold sunlight was projected on the vast ice field of Hokuriku.

In the woods where the twigs danced wildly, a piece of cowhide rope spit out on the ground after being chewed hard, and squatting next to the pile of cowhide rope remnants was the mysterious red-haired monster.

Facing the food that was still inaccessible, the mysterious red-haired monster was at a loss. He raised his head and exposed his face from the messy red hair. It was a very handsome and stern face. The ferocious big fish in the sea couldn't touch it at all, and those golden eyes also shone with a gentle and indifferent brilliance.

"Gum..."

The red-haired monster, who had not been able to find suitable food for several days, let out a low whimper, and simply lay lazily under the tree, hugging his slender and powerful arms, his burly body retracted habitually, Seems so vulnerable, helpless and constantly hungry...

When the jerky was stolen, apart from being surprised, Han Jinsong thought more about the fact that he was not familiar with the place where he was born, so it is better not to provoke those mysterious monsters for the time being.But when the cowhide rope was also stolen, Han Jinsong still couldn't sit still.

He found that this monster seemed to have spotted his characteristic of sleeping like a dead pig, so he dared to steal his things unscrupulously. If this continued, one day, he himself might be stolen too.

In order to prevent the tragedy from happening to him, Han Jinsong decided to let the tragedy happen to the monster who stole things first.

According to his calculations, with such a huge monster, he still has a good chance of winning if he fights alone—it's no wonder.

So he repaired the rusty trap and buried it at the entrance of the cave before going to bed at night.

Looking at the trap he set, Han Jinsong actually didn't want the monster to step into it, because such a big hunting trap would inevitably make screams, which would affect his sound sleep.

But thinking about it, it's not a good thing to just let a scary or even dangerous monster appear by your side every night when you fall asleep, and then slowly steal everything that belongs to you.

Han Jinsong gnawed on the unsalted grilled fish, and a bird could really fade out of his mouth.

He turned his head and stared coldly at the trap he had set, and suddenly had a whim, wondering if that monster could be eaten, if it looked delicious, it would be better to bake it, it would be better than endlessly eating grilled fish, Maybe it's time for a change of taste.

Now that the trap had been set, Han Jinsong naturally fell asleep.

Not long after he fell asleep, outside the cave, the hungry red-haired monster appeared again.

This time, he looked at Han Jinsong who was sleeping soundly, and his hungry stomach told him that this time he must muster up the courage to eat this guy who didn't know where he came from. He was so hungry that he had to try whenever he had the chance.

As usual, before stepping into the cave, the red-haired monster carefully lifted its hips and abdomen, and padded its feet.

He didn't want to disturb the other party, he just wanted to take away something that could be eaten, he was just hungry.

However, when he entered the cave full of courage to eat Han Jinsong, he heard a muffled sound coming from his feet, and at the same time, he felt a sharp pain.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!"

The shrill screams resounded through the sky, and Han Jinsong, who was sleeping like a dead pig, was also awakened by the screams of howling ghosts and wolves. He rubbed his eyes and sat up, wondering what kind of big guy the hunter caught. , would be so frightening.

What is this?

Han Jinsong put on his clothes and looked at the monster rolling on the ground with its feet in its arms in amazement. Judging from its body shape, the opponent should be a person, but from its appearance, it didn't look like a person.

Because he has never seen anyone with dark red hair, golden eyes, and beast-like nails, and most importantly, no one can shine in such a cold weather. butt.

However, at this moment, the bare-bottomed guy was rolling in front of him, and screaming in pain at the same time.

Of course, this is not the voice of the human race, Han Jinsong shook his head calmly.

He saw that the opponent's right calf was bitten fiercely by the hunting trap, and it looked really painful.

As Han Jinsong approached step by step, the red-haired monster who came in to steal food but stepped into the trap seemed extremely nervous.

He clutched his injured leg and struggled to stand up, but he was still powerless.

"Well……"

Seeing the guy who wanted to be eaten by him getting closer and closer, the red-haired monster felt a sense of fear that he would be eaten instead.

Han Jinsong took a closer look at this monster he had never seen before. The long dark red hair shone slightly under the light of the fire, which was very beautiful, but the face of the monster was very similar to that of Zhonglu. He is a human race with clear outlines and handsome features. If placed in Zhonglu, he can be regarded as a very outstanding handsome man.

Could it be that this is actually the legendary beast?

After all, he is not of the same race, so it is impossible for Han Jinsong not to be afraid of the messy red-haired guy in front of him who screams.

He picked up the harpoon carefully and ventured a little closer.

"Hey, what kind of monster are you? Did you steal my jerky and leather rope?"

Knowing that the other party is a monster, but still trying to communicate, this is tantamount to talking to a duck.

Just as Han Jinsong finished asking, the monster saw that he was approaching, and suddenly his expression changed, and he stared ferociously with his golden eyes and yelled loudly at Han Jinsong a few times.

That sound was really as shocking as breaking a mountain and cracking a rock.

Han Jinsong was so frightened by the rough roar that he couldn't even hold the harpoon firmly, but then he thought, it wasn't him who was caught in the trap, what could he be so afraid of? Woolen cloth?

Originally, he was full of resentment and resentment for being alone in this ghost place, but now there is a monster who only steals things and dares to challenge him. How can Han Jinsong not be depressed.

He immediately threw the harpoon on the muddy floor, rolled up his sleeves, stepped forward and gave the red-haired monster who only knew how to bark his teeth two big mouths.

"What are you yelling! What do you think you are! Stealing my things, how dare you yell!"

Han Jinsong's voice was also very loud, so a cloud of dust began to fall from the top of the cave...

This time it was the red-haired monster who was stunned. He probably didn't expect this guy who looked so much thinner than himself to be so fierce. He stared, and the red hair behind him seemed to stand on end in fright. He got up, hurriedly huddled on the ground and curled up in the corner.

"Gum..."

When encountering a species more vicious than himself, the red-haired monster seemed helpless. Enduring the pain, he moaned softly, full of grievances.

Seeing the way the red-haired monster wanted to shrink into the soil, Han Jinsong knew that this guy was a paper tiger.

However, he has never been a ruthless person. Although he came to the North Continent with the purpose of making a fortune, facing such a creature with the same flesh, flesh and temper as himself, he felt that he still couldn't just roast the other person. have eaten.

Seeing the bloody calf of the red-haired monster, Han Jinsong also felt pain. He frowned, walked to the other side, and broke the animal trap with his hands.

The red-haired monster who didn't know what Han Jinsong was going to do was terrified by his actions, his eyes widened suddenly, and the red hair scattered behind him trembled along with his body.

"Don't worry, I won't eat you."

Han Jinsong saw the fear in his eyes, and thought that he was not yet trembling with fear, but this guy who was obviously taller and stronger than himself, and whose voice was more terrifying, shook away first.

"Well……"

Probably the red-haired monster could still understand human speech. After Han Jinsong comforted him, he was really not so afraid, but continued to whimper in a low voice because of the pain. His pitiful and unlucky appearance was really hard to see. The tough Han fisherman softened his heart.

He couldn't help but touch the other's shiny red hair. It was so comfortable, smooth and even warm. Probably the best silk and satin in Zhonglu was nothing more than that. If it was all shaved off, it might sell for a good price. What about the price?

Thinking of this, Han Jinsong couldn't help but smile a little, but then he couldn't laugh anymore. Now he is trapped alone in this icy and snowy Northland, even if there is such a legendary beast by his side, he can't help it He exchanged his wife and children for such a great dream.

Seeing that the red-haired monster was in so much pain, Han Jinsong sighed lightly. After all, it was a living and precious beast, but it was so greedy that it even stole the cowhide rope to eat it. What a waste of such a good appearance.
