Bei Yutang got off Yan Meng’s body. As soon as she landed, her legs sank into the snow. The snow reached her thighs.
The two of them began to dig, digging a hole big enough for them to enter.
Yan Meng looked inside and found that it was very dry and not damp.
After Bei Yutang entered, she saw a thin layer of leaves in the corner and started a fire using the most primitive method.
When the fire started, Yan Meng had already picked up a pile of dry firewood from outside.
The cave was not very big, but it was big enough to accommodate two people.
The fire in the cave lit up, and the whole cave suddenly became warm.
Seeing that he was about to go out again, Bei Yutang stopped him and said, “It’s late, don’t go out. These dry firewood can last until dawn.”
Yan Meng looked at her, “I’ll go find something to eat.”
Bei Yutang shook her head, “It doesn’t matter if we skip a meal. It’s too cold outside now. If something happens to you, it will be more trouble than gain. Be obedient.”
Yan Meng finally listened to her and didn’t go out again.
Now the two of them are penniless and have nothing.
Outside, the cold wind is blowing, and the snow is blocking the cold wind. The cold wind can’t blow into the cave.
It’s just that they have to clean the entrance of the cave frequently. If they don’t clean it, they will be buried in the snow if they are not careful.
The two dared not sleep deeply and woke up from time to time to clean the snow at the entrance of the cave.
Yan Meng transformed into a lion. The two of them huddled together in the innermost part of the cave. In the quiet cave, the sound of matches could be heard.
“Bei, am I really the God of Doom?” Yan Meng suddenly asked, his voice low and dull.
“No.” Bei Yutang said solemnly.
“Really?”
“Do you also think I am a witch, not a wizard?” Bei Yutang asked back.
Yan Meng said hurriedly: “Of course not. You can’t be a witch. You can ask Enlin, Duo Jiu, and others for protection from the gods, and you can know the coming of disasters in advance, how can you be a witch?”
“Yes. How can I be a witch?”
Such a simple truth was easily overlooked by those people.
Either they were blind, or they were careless.
Bei Yutang said softly: “Since I am not a witch, how can I believe the words of the old wizard?”
Yan Meng understood, and his dim eyes brightened.
“Bei, you won’t leave me, right?” He asked this question carefully.
He even regretted asking this question.
He was suddenly afraid to hear the answer.
The word ‘no’ was stuck in her throat. She couldn’t say it.
She didn’t want to lie to him, to the innocent him.
But she didn’t dare to tell the truth.
Bei Yutang said another way, “As long as the gods allow.”
Yan Meng said naively: “Then I will pray to the gods every day, praying that he will let you stay by my side forever.” (T/N: Woo, woo, so pure and innocent T.T)
Bei Yutang looked at his silly appearance and smiled softly, “Stupid.”
Yan Meng saw her smile, and a smile rose on his lips.
It was cold outside the cave, but there was a faint warmth in the cave.
Just then, the two of them heard footsteps.
It was the sound of animals stepping on the snow, making a ‘crunch, crunch’ sound. The sound was getting closer and closer to them, and soon, they saw a pair of green eyes at the entrance of the cave.
“Howl…”
It was a huge thorn wolf, and it was a very hungry thorn wolf.
It did not hide in the cave to avoid the cold but came out in the wind and snow to find food, which showed that it was very hungry.
