Otherworldly beast face

That damned swamp crocodile!Isn't it just picking a piece of vitality grass from him, as for hurting me like this?

I lay down next to Dabai and licked my wound.

Taking time to look at Dabai, the military doctor seems to have already cured him.

Suddenly, I felt a chill coming over, it was the smell of that human being.

I looked up and looked at the human being looking down at me.He slowly stretched out his hand, and I bared my teeth at him.

It's not that I don't want him to touch it, but I know that human beings have a problem. What they can't get is the best. Even if he wants to get it in the end, he can't make the process too easy, otherwise it's easy to be abandoned .

The human smiled in satisfaction. I know that even though he wants to be domesticated, what he wants in his heart is not an obedient pet, but a wild beast that is difficult to tame.

I must call him what he wants.

Dabai was completely wrapped up by the military doctor, and his skinny body seemed a little angry.

The humans yelled a few times towards the outside of the tent, and a big cage was brought in after a while. I knew it was for Dabai and me.

Being untamed does not mean being stubborn, and being a hero is also a necessary condition for survival.

I walked into the cage calmly, as if walking back to my own home.

Watching several soldiers carefully carry Dabai in, in a sense, that human being treated us pretty well, at least he didn't kill us for this fur.

The violent shaking made Dabai open his eyes, and the first thing he saw with his misty eyes was my figure.

He was panting violently, with such a weak body, he didn't even have the strength to growl.

I leaned against him and whimpered in relief, licking its cheeks and neck from time to time.

He looked around the situation first, and then looked back at me, his vertical eyes were full of reproach and gratitude.

I turned my head in embarrassment, ashamed of leaving him alone and running away.

It was the first time in my life to sit in a carriage. Although I was in a cage, it was still a brand new experience.

The grassland is getting farther and farther in sight, but I don't know why I always feel that I haven't left.

After living with these humans for a few days, I understood that that terrifying human is the leader of these humans, and I guess it should be a general.

Comparing with real objects, I began to slowly learn the human language of this world.

From the eyes of the soldiers guarding me, I understood that the appearance of Dabai and I was very rare to them. The neatly folded animal furs also made me realize clearly that no matter how precious I am, as long as human beings want to kill us, it is a breeze and a piece of cake.So I racked my brains to survive.

Although he can't say he understands humans very well, he does have certain memories.

So I know that the one who controls our life and death is the General Toronto.

So, except for the food that he personally brought to me, no matter who brought the food, I would not touch it.As if a proud animal like me only recognizes him as my "master".

Although my approach made him have to take time out of his busy schedule to take care of me, it undoubtedly made him very happy.

He would not think of a dog on the same level as a lion as an ordinary wild dog, but this legendary one only bowed his head to him. No matter from which angle you look at it, it is a sign of his royal power and arrogance A kind of affirmation, no matter how hard and tired he is, he is happy.

I'm still proud, even if I eat what he sends, I still won't let him touch me.And every time Dabai eats, I eat it.

From the bottom of my heart, I don't want to see Dabai eating food given by others. I'm just a dog, so "begging" is enough for me alone. I don't want to see a lion king bowing his head to eat food given by others , I just don't want to see it.

It turns out that I still can't be a real beast in my bones.

Dabai seems to understand what I mean, so apart from the food I give him, even if he starves for three to five days, he will not pay attention to the meat brought by others.

For this, I am somewhat proud of the tacit understanding between us.

The army walked for about ten days, and I saw a human city for the first time.

It would be a lie to say that you are not excited, the cyan stone is completely different from what you remember, and the suspension bridge of the moat is full of crowds of onlookers.

The excited cheers made me understand that the status of this Toronto general is higher than I imagined.

Facing the amazed gazes of human beings, I remained calm, neither cowering in fear nor howling in excitement.General Toronto seemed so pleased with my attitude that he even gave us a live sheep that night.

Dabai and I were placed in an independent courtyard, and the noise outside could be heard under the night sky, so I knew they were celebrating.

Dabai and I finished eating a live sheep, we licked each other's fur, licked off the blood, and then I lay on Dabai's body.

Dabai's body has recovered a lot, and I have to sigh how amazing the resilience of wild animals is, so I feel very comfortable lying on him.

This reminds me of Xiaobai. I don't know how Xiaobai is doing now, will he miss me, just like him, he won't wait for me to go back, he will already recognize my elder brother as "father", right?

I really want to chat with Dabai, but it’s a pity that neither of us understands the other’s language. Only then did I understand how important it is to learn one more foreign language.

In the early morning of the next day, General Toronto did not come to deliver meals to us as usual. Anyway, the sheep stored calories yesterday were enough for Dabai and I to live for several days, so we were not in a hurry.

Although the general did not come, the servant who cleaned our cage did.

I have a serious cleanliness fetish and never defecate in my den.This time, Dabai and I were locked in a cage. What I couldn't bear the most was the problem of excrement.

Dogs have three urgencies, it is only right and proper.

At the beginning, I always held back, and when I couldn't hold back, I found a corner to solve it, and then waited for it to dry, and kicked it out with my claws.

Cats are naturally cleaner than me, and they all have the habit of burying their excrement.There is no soil in the cage, which makes Dabai feel very uncomfortable.So I have to deal with both of our shit.

Gradually, General Toronto also understood the habits of the two of us, so he specially found a person to help us clean the cage.Every day with a long broom to help us clean from the outside of the cage, and then put us in new hay, so that Dabai can cover up the urine.

I have to say, Toronto has been pretty good to us.

At noon, Toronto came with his entourage and, as usual, brought us food.

Smelling the strong smell of alcohol on his body, I knew he was hungover overnight.In fact, he doesn't need to come to see me today, but he came.

Instead of waiting until he left before approaching the food as usual, I bowed my head in front of him and started eating.

He froze for a moment, then stretched out his hand cautiously, I raised my head vigilantly, and saw his hand stopped in mid-air.

I didn't bark my teeth at him, but lowered my head and continued eating.

He hesitated for a moment, and carefully put his hand close to my head.

I heard the exclamation of the humans behind him, and also heard Dabai's unwilling growl.

But I didn't move.

Finally, Toronto touched my hair, and I could feel the trembling of his palm for a moment, and heard the joyful laughter from his throat.

After not letting him touch it for a long time, I returned to Dabai with the food in my mouth, and licked his nose comfortingly, wondering if he understood what I meant.

I know, that surprised stare in Toronto, and I know how different I am.

Proudly licking the forelegs, I firmly believe in the words who said:

When humans keep pets, do humans tame animals, or are they tamed by animals?
