Chapter 5 The road is long and the journey is long
Holding the little white dog tightly in her arms, Luo Shui pulled the white robe that had been torn to pieces by her and barely managed to cover her body.
"Dog, please bear with it for one more night." Luo Shui felt the lack of warmth under its fur and couldn't help but hug it tighter.
"Is it very cold? After being so seriously injured and losing so much blood, your body will always be weak. Don't be afraid. I'll lend you some warmth."
"After I go back and cure you, do you want to follow me? Don't worry, I will be better than your original master and will not abuse you. Whoever dares to bully you again, I can't kill him!"
The forest was so quiet that it was a bit scary. Luo Shui could only keep talking, trying to drive away the fear in his heart.
"What's your name? Forget it, since you're following me, I'll give you a new name. Let's call you Xiaobai..."
The little white dog's face obviously darkened a bit.
"I used to raise a little Hei. Although he was not as beautiful as you, he was very good. But later he died of illness and I cried for a long time... So you must not die. I don't want to be sad again."
"Oh, it's really cold..."
Even a thin robe could not block the chill that invaded his body, but Luo Shui gradually fell asleep, his body still trembling slightly in his deep sleep.
The little white dog was in her arms, and her body gradually warmed up through the warmth coming from her chest.
He poked his head out of her arms, looked at her with complicated eyes for a long time, then shrank back into her arms and continued to sleep.
…………
As soon as he woke up the next day, Luo Shui sneezed.
Rubbing her nose and patting her somewhat heavy head, she smiled helplessly.
It looked like she had caught a cold.
But the dog in her arms seemed to be sleeping peacefully, so she smiled again.
It doesn't matter if she catches a cold, but it can be dangerous if the dog is seriously injured and gets cold again.
The little white dog seemed to be awakened by her sneeze and looked up at her.
"Xiao Bai, we are going back." Luo Shui got up from the ground, feeling light-headed and unsteady. He held on to the tree beside him, shook his head, and tried to cheer himself up.
If she falls down at this time, no one will come to help her.
Picking up her bag, she began to find her way aimlessly in the forest.
However, Luo Shui had to admit that she had no sense of direction and was a road addict.
So, when the sun rose to high in the sky, she was still scurrying around in the forest like a headless fly, unable to get out.
"Xiao Bai, are we going to be trapped here and die..." Finally, Luo Shui sat down on the ground helplessly, extremely frustrated.
The little white dog looked at her and lay helplessly in her arms. He patted her hand with his paw and pointed in the direction as if helpless.
Luo Shui was stunned for a long time, and finally understood what it meant. His eyes immediately sparkled: "Xiao Bai, it turns out you know the way! Why didn't you tell me earlier!"
The little white dog rolled his eyes at her, a trace of contempt flashing in his beautiful silver eyes.
That obviously means, you are too stupid!
Being despised by the dog, Luo Shui smiled sheepishly, then stood up and continued walking in the direction it pointed.
After walking for who knows how long, standing on the hillside, she could finally see a town at the foot of the mountain not far away.
"Xiao Bai, you are so smart!" Luo Shui was so ecstatic that he picked up the little white dog and gave it a hard "pop" on the face.
The road is tortuous, but the future is bright. This sentence is indeed the truth!
