034, Hidden Cave

Sweat dripped onto the sand and made a squeaking sound. Not long after, the idiot's body could not even sweat. But he was still walking under the sun in the evening with his baby girl in his arms.

"Hey, is it enough?"

The mysterious demon has not spoken for these days, and now, it has finally spoken.

"Human kid, you have been walking for more than three months in a row. I haven't spoken because I admire your survival awareness very much and want to know how long you can live. But now, your physical strength has far exceeded the critical point. Who is this girl? Are you worth taking such a big risk for her? Crossing the desert?"

The idiot didn't say anything, he just kept exhaling and walking. The sky in the distance gradually began to change, and a sandstorm seemed to be coming.

"Did you see it? This is your ending, swallowed by this desert! I don't care. You will die here, and I will be buried here and wait for the next user to discover me. But I really feel sorry, because you are the most potential and qualified person I have ever seen. If you can be smarter, you will not have fallen to this point at all."

The sandstorm was approaching, and the sky in front was completely covered by the black storm. The idiot stood there, holding the sleeping baby girl, staring at the storm that was coming quickly with a dull look at the storm.

"You have paid so much for her. But what has this girl brought you? Did she bring you reputation? Did she bring you money? Or did she bring you strength, power and other people's surrender? No, she brought you nothing. She brought you only countless troubles and countless crises! She is a burden, a burden that hinders you everywhere and hinders you!"

The sandstorm arrived. The idiot took a step forward and immediately fell into the sand pile. The place he was in was a sand slope. After sliding down, the cave appeared in front of him. The idiot hurriedly hid in the cave and waited for the sandstorm to pass by at the corner.

At this moment, his eyes were completely gone without the coldness he had before, with only fatigue and sleepiness. The storm outside was sobbing, constantly slapping the outside of the cave. Although this cave that was turning and turning could more or less resist the terrible sandstorm, how long could he support it without water and food?

With her head down, the baby girl was always lying in the arms of an idiot. She was more than four months old and she grew up a lot than before. The swagging clothes of the past could no longer be wrapped around her. One of her little arms was exposed from the rag and swung.

She...is really a burden to me?

No matter how strong a person is, he may not be able to bear this unbearable burden. As for a ten-year-old child, he has endured the pain that ordinary people cannot bear. His will was wiped out by the storm of this desert, and his eyes were gradually confusing.

Now, he remembered again the question he had thought about but had not found the answer-

Why should I take care of her?

The sandstorm outside roared, and the sand that was occasionally scraped in slapped on the idiot, making him look even more dirty and tired...

...

Bang.

Late at night, the sandstorm outside was still raging. But in this small cave without any light, a sound of footsteps came.

The idiot suddenly woke up from his drowsiness. He opened his eyes again and looked at the baby girl in his arms. The desert at night was very cold, and one of her arms was always swinging outside. The idiot thought about it and thought about the question again in a very short time. But he still couldn't think of the answer. Since he couldn't think of the answer, then continue not to think about it.

He picked up the baby girl's little arm, carefully stuffed it into the warm swaddle, hugged it, and shrank deeper into the cave.

Slap.

The sound rang again. And this time, the idiot heard it really well. It was not the sound of sandstorms slapping against the rock walls, but indeed the sound of footsteps!

But is this possible? The sandstorm outside is fierce. What kind of person has the ability to walk in such an environment? And from the sound of footsteps, the other party seems not anxious at all. It seems that for the other party, the sandstorm outside is not a sandstorm, but a drizzle of spring. The other party just entered this cave to avoid this spring rain.

Slap, flap, flap...

There was more than one person's footsteps. The idiot gently patted the baby girl. After confirming that she was really sleeping, he slightly opened his right hand and the chain was easily opened. The mysterious woman was already held in his hand.

Who is the other party?

No matter who it is, being vigilant is always the best way for people to survive.

With the sound of footsteps gradually coming in, the idiot's eyes, which had been gradually dimmed due to torture, were once again covered with a layer of long-lost frost.

"Oh, what a big dust storm. Let's sleep here for one night tonight."

A woman's voice?

And it sounds like a very young female voice.

The torch lit up in the other party's hand. As the light moved, the other party finally walked to the deepest part of the cave and appeared in front of the idiot.

Even the idiot who has always been calm about anything was shocked and speechless at this moment. Because the first thing that caught his eyes was not a woman, but a white giant wolf almost two meters tall! The wolf had snow-white hair and a golden flame emblem on his forehead. The blood-red eyes swept down towards the four walls of the cave. After seeing the idiot, he did not react at all, as if he had seen nothing.

The idiot's heart was beating, and his first reaction was that he did not respond. He watched the giant wolf lie down on the edge of the cave, closed his eyes, but he didn't dare to move.

"Ah Lala? It turns out that there is already a master here?"

Following the giant wolf, a petite body that was inconsistent with the huge beast's body. The woman was wearing a white cloak, covered by the cloak, and her appearance could not be seen clearly. Listening to the sound and height, she would probably not be more than sixteen or seventeen years old.

The woman slowly walked to the idiot, not caring about his act of holding the dagger. She squatted in front of the idiot very well, and her lips under the cloak showed a gentle smile.

"Sorry, little brother. The dust storm outside is too big. Can I allow my friend and I to stay here for one night?"

The voice was crisp and full of negotiation tone. It seemed that as long as the idiot said the word "no", the other party would really leave helplessly.

Living with strangers is definitely a very dangerous thing. Because you will never know what reason or reason the other party will insert a knife into your chest. The idiot is reluctant to live with a strange woman with a terrifying giant wolf in such a sandstorm climate, but when he sees the giant wolf over there, he knows that he cannot have a choice.

"……Um."

The lips under the cloak smiled understandingly. The woman stood up and patted the sand on the cloak and walked back to the giant wolf. The woman seemed not afraid of the big terrible monster. She leaned on the giant wolf's belly and stretched very comfortably. Then, the woman pulled the travel bag on the giant wolf's back, took out some dry food from it, and started dinner.

There are many kinds of dry food, including beef, vegetables and compressed biscuits. But strangely, the woman always gives the meat to the giant wolf and only eats vegetables and biscuits. I wonder if this is one of the reasons why she can be at peace with such a giant wolf.

"Do you eat?"

Suddenly, the woman reached out and handed a compressed biscuit.

The idiot's stomach was already hungry, but he was still alert and didn't answer. No one would give you food for no reason unless he wanted to use you, kill you, or get any benefits from you.

The girl seemed a little surprised to be vigilant about the idiot, and moved her mouth under her cloak. But she did not take back the compressed biscuits, but instead took out more dehydrated vegetables, biscuits, beef slices, and a bottle of water from the shoulder bag on the giant wolf's back and handed them to the idiot.

"You can tolerate it, but this child can't. Are you worried that I will harm you, or do you want her to starve to death in the middle of this desert?"

The idiot's lips had long been dry and cracked, and the pain on his mouth had even made him lose the feeling of the pain. However, the little baby girl in her arms could not bear this pain. The recent malnutrition has made her look obviously thin, and her crying sounds were much lower than before.

The idiot looked at the sleeping baby girl, then the food in front of him. Finally, he gritted his teeth, grabbed the bottle of water, took a sip. The biscuits, vegetables, and beef slices all bite off a little bit of the residue, mixed with water and ate it.

Then, it was a thirty-minute wait.

The girl did not interfere, and she still lay back next to the giant wolf, holding her knees and lowering her head. It was not until thirty minutes later that the idiot realized that she was not dead, so she finally felt relieved and boldly fed the water to the baby girl, then smashed the biscuits, melted it in the water, and fed her. Only after the baby girl was really full did he chew the food and filled her stomach.

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth under the cloak, and the girl waited without saying a word, allowing the idiot to finish eating.

"Have you finished eating?"

After a moment, the girl said softly in her soft voice.
