Chapter 159 - 158 Escape
Gu Youyou replaced the cloth wrap for it, even tying a beautiful bowknot.
Seeing it, Gu Youyou suddenly had an idea, her eyes lighting up.
"You..." She started to speak, then quickly silenced herself, glancing over toward the coffin.
Seeing the man was still standing there in a daze, she mustered up the courage to whisper to the wolf cub, "When that wild man uncle comes in later, run outside as soon as the door is about to close. Do you remember the way home? Run as far as you can, as fast as you can, understand?"
Well... regardless of whether it understood or not, Gu Youyou sighed, picked it up, carried it close to the door, and then set it down.
She crouched down, pointed toward the door, and said, "Remember, wait until it’s about to close before you go out, just squat here and don’t move!"
She wouldn’t be able to escape, but there was still hope for the wolf cub. It had a bowknot made from her own clothes tied around its leg, and if it was lucky enough to encounter Jin Zijin, perhaps she would be saved.
With this thought, excitement was hard to hide on Gu Youyou’s face. She didn’t know if the wolf cub would succeed, but she crouched on the ground, gently smoothing its fur, repeating the gestures over and over as if she were training a puppy.
"If you don’t want to be stewed and eaten, you must run fast!"
The wild man uncle had been gone for quite a while, and Gu Youyou estimated that he was about to return. She waited both excitedly and nervously, too hungry to feel her rumbling stomach.
Time seemed to pass exceedingly slowly, feeling as though a century had gone by before the tall tomb door finally began to open with a rumble.
