In the dream, Wu Lin turns around and walks towards Ye Wang.

Turn back into a human and go back to school with him?

Wu Lin's little wolf legs stomped left and kicked right to dislike Ye Wang's face: "Ow ow ow ow--"

If he knew how to transform, he wouldn't be like Ye Wang now!

Ye Wang waited patiently for half a day, but found that the coyote's body had not changed in any substantial way, except for its four paws stomping and squeaking.

Going back to those beautiful wolf eyes, they were full of impatience and exasperation.

Ye Wang raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he understood a little, "Can't change back?"

Wu Lin: "Ow!"

Ye Wang looked at him for a while and said, "Are you temporarily unable to change back, or completely unable to change back? If it's temporary, then scream once, if it's complete, then scream twice."

Wu Lin : "...... Ouch! Ow! Ow!"

Ye Wang frowns, "What's with the three voices?"

Because he didn't know whether his animalization was temporary or permanent! Wu Lin was about to die, and bit Ye Wang's hand.

But I didn't really push, I just half bit and half held it with my teeth, which hurt a little but didn't really break the skin.

Ye Wang let him bite and didn't hide, and even happily stroked the coyote's chin, teasing and scratching it.

Wu Lin is so angry, I'm jumping up and down, you're here with this cute time?

Fuckin' comfortable.

The coyote slowly released his mouth and tilted his head slightly, squinting in enjoyment.

"If you can't come back, stay with me in the mountains." Ye Wang said.

Wu Lin slumped lazily into his lap, not making a sound.

Ye Wang stroked its head and stopped asking.

The light rain continues.

But the deep woods were a little brighter, and the rain could hardly be felt under the spruce, only the occasional drip of rainwater that had accumulated on the branches.

It falls on Ye Wang's hand and on Wu Lin's back.

Ye Wang took a hand to help the coyote smooth the fur on his back.

The gray wolf's fur was beaten by the rain into locks and locks, and without thinking, Ye Wang suddenly realized that in the gap between the soaked wolf's fur, tiny scars on the skin could be seen vaguely.

It wasn't deep, like it had been scratched by a tree branch or something, and the scratches had been whitened by the rain, so it was hard to notice unless you looked closely.

But when Ye Wang went closer, stripping the coyote's fur from head to toe and examining it all, he realized that this tiny scratch wasn't a single one at all, but was finely concentrated on the sides of the body and, to a lesser extent, on the belly.

Wu Lin didn't react at all to what Ye Wang was doing, he was lying down quietly like a wolf, at most he was just borrowing Ye Wang's legs for a bit of cushioning, but suddenly he was pulled up and pulled all sorts of things, tossing and turning.

"Ow-"

Where's your pancake?

"Don't move!" Ye Wang pressed down on the unfaithful coyote and spoke fiercely.

"Ow ......" Wu Lin's voice wilted along with his temper.

But the soul is unyielding.

You wait and wait to go back!

Ye Wang couldn't wait to go back. He rolled Wu Lin over on his lap, belly up, with all four legs facing the sky. Then he realized that the worst injury was neither in the sides nor in the belly, but in the paws.

The meat pads are worn out and the toes are all bruised.

"What happened?" Since his rebellious days, it was common for Ye Wang to get into fights and get hurt, or to let others get hurt, and he'd seen worse, but when it came to Wu Lin, it was particularly harsh and disturbing.

How dare you ask? Not just looking for what you're looking for!

Wu Lin's tail is still free, but it can't be thrown in someone's face even with half an effort.

As he persisted, the whole man, no, the whole wolf, was picked up by Ye Wang and placed over his shoulder.

Wu Lin was startled and hurriedly put his front paws on Ye Wang's back, leaned his hind legs on Ye Wang's chest, and pressed his belly against Ye Wang's shoulder, thus hanging on to Ye Wang's shoulder.

Ye Wang got up with Wu Lin and strutted out of the tree.

Wu Lin: "Ow-"

Where is this taking him?

Ye Wang: "No screaming."

Wu Lin : "Ow ow ow (I'm partial to screaming)--"

Ye Wang: "......"

Wu Lin : "Ow ow ow (without pinching ears)!"

Through the drizzle, through the mud, through pine and fir tree after pine tree, Ye Wang brought Wu Lin to the bottom of a dirt slope. Unlike the blind man's slope where Wu Lin had tumbled down, here there were many large boulders that had weathered and eroded over the years to form caves.

Until the second Ye Wang took him into the cave, Wu Lin was convinced that Ye Wang's "going up the mountain" was a struggle in the wilderness.

As a result, the cave is warm, although the fire on the ground has been extinguished, but vaguely from the remains of tree branches to judge its original burning style, away from the fire under the root of the stone wall, but also piled up a lot of broken pine branches spare, and a more than half a person high hiking bag.

Ye Wang puts Wu Lin on the ground and starts rummaging through his bag.

Things are so stuffed that if you want to find the bottom, you have to take them out one by one.

Clothing, canned goods, mineral water, dental tools, towels, razors, ropes, axes, hardware kits ......

Wu Lin: "......"

He misjudged Ye Wang's impulsiveness, underestimated Ye Wang's desire to survive, as well as, that cold light big axe was definitely bought only when he arrived at the bottom of the mountain, or else he couldn't pass the security check all the way, okay!

Rummaging through the bottom of the bag, Ye Wang finally found what he was looking for.

Wu Lin looked at the other side to take out the wilderness first aid kit, the brain has been completely empty, love whoever, Ye Wang now is from the bag out of an iron pot stewed goose, he will be a screaming not to scream, calmly and freely ......

"Ow!"

A dark figure fell from the sky, and Wu Lin gave an instinctive howl of terror and was about to spring back.

Ye Wang was quick to stop him.

Dark shadows fell and covered Wu Lin's ears and head with dry softness.

It's a towel.

Wu Lin relaxes as his pointed ears twitch.

Ye Wang took a towel and rubbed the coyote's fur, not gently, but when he met a wounded area, his movements became unconsciously lighter.

Thinking of the way the coyote looked at him when he was rummaging through the bag, Ye Wang couldn't help but reach out and flick those two cute wolf ears again, "Did you not expect me to be so well-prepared?"

Wu Lin let him tickle him straight and tossed his head quickly, dog shaking his fur like.

Ye Wang looked more and more like, hands simply can not control, and touched it again, owed to tease leisure: "Now you know I'm not just a hot head, right?"

Wu Lin : "Ow (Gentlemen move their mouths, not their hands)--"

The ears were hot from the guy's touch, and then that heat traveled down the capillaries throughout the body, eventually converging on the heart, drumming and beating and thumping.

After drying Wu Lin from the rain, Ye Wang opens the first aid kit and applies medicine to Wu Lin's paw.

It should hurt.

But Ye Wang gripped the coyote's leg, holding it extra hard, and the blazing heat of his hand and the force that he simply couldn't ignore completely distracted Wu Lin.

When the last leg was released, Wu Lin realized that the medicine was over.

This guy definitely did it on purpose.

Deliberately so hard, deliberately sound, deliberately ...... afraid of his pain.

Although his four paws were wrapped into buns, Wu Lin moved over with great difficulty and tilted his neck up.

"Hmm?" Ye Wang bowed his head.

Without warning, the coyote rubbed his face.

Ye Wang was first stunned, then his whole body overflowed, like a cactus blossomed: "Did you suddenly realize that I am particularly important? You realize that you can't do without me?"

...... Wu Lin wants to bite again.

It's true that you can't use "encouragement" with this kind of guy, or else you'll be fooling around on the moon, like you are now.

Taking the coyote's silent protests as acquiescence, Ye Wang lowered his head a little closer to Wu Lin and asked, "If I'm so important, why don't you come with me?"

Wu Lin was suddenly glad that he was now a Coyote and didn't have to answer.

"It's really nice here," Ye Wang looked steadily into those misty eyes, his half-coaxing, half-luring tone gentle, "there are mountains and water and pine cones, and birds and rabbits and deer, and, yes, there are bears."

Wu Lin: "......"

Is your concept of "pretty good" too broad!

There was no point in always talking to yourself, and the coyote curled up on the ground looked exhausted.

Ye Wang took a soft fleece jacket and spread it out as a cushion, put Wu Lin on it, and then touched his ear and said, "Okay, you can squint for a while, and when it stops raining, we'll find our way back."

Wu Lin's eyes, already half-squinted from sleep, suddenly opened at the words and stared uncertainly at Ye Wang .

Is this a promise to go back with him?

Ye Wang : "Go to sleep, you'll have the spirit to transform when you're awake."

Wu Lin: "......"

The rain is ticking.

A freshly lit fire baked the cave warm and dry.

The coyote fell asleep.

A body smaller than most wolves makes him look like a puppy, and even more so when he's asleep.

Ye Wang stood by the fire, adding twigs to it from time to time.

The cave was quiet.

With the crackling of burning branches, Ye Wang suddenly wishes the rain would stop.

That way he can keep Wu Lin detained here, in a territory that belongs only to him.

Wu Lin was too tired to fully relax mentally in a deep sleep, and a jumble of dreams scrambled to find him.

There is a father, there is a mother, there is the beauty and joy of childhood, there is the overwhelming sadness of brokenness, these past in the form of disordered, disorganized, and even absurd, intertwined into a montage-like labyrinth in his dream, Wu Lin desperately walks in it, but how can he not find the exit ......

But back there, he somehow got out.

The dream suddenly became clear, as if all that mess ahead was just an irrelevant prelude.

The image is of Ye Wang, carrying that big flag under a blue sky, cheering him on from the stands at the games.

In the dream, Wu Lin ran first and when the prize was awarded, the sky suddenly went dark, brilliant fireworks lit up the night sky, and there was a big, round moon hanging in the sky, just like last October 1st.

Wu Lin hung his medal around Ye Wang's neck and asked a reporter from the school newspaper to take a picture of the two of them.

With a click of the camera, the stadium and Ye Wang disappeared, the surrounding area became a wilderness, and Wu Lin became a lone wolf.

Every frame of the dream is a scene from that documentary he once watched, where his pack didn't want him and he had to try to get closer to every new pack he meets.

After countless rejections, a wolf pack was finally willing to take him in, but he refused again.

In the documentary, the coyote turns around and walks into the wilderness.

In the dream, Wu Lin turns around and walks towards Ye Wang.
