Dream Guide

Huang Liang thought of the crow, and at the same time he thought of the man with the crow on his head.

Hong Kui and the Indian guide obviously heard the crow, and at the same time they raised their heads to look at the clouds in the distance. Even the white wolf in the mist seemed to be affected and raised its neck.

But above the clouds, the black shadow had long since disappeared.

The Indian guide said something unknown, and then he knelt down devoutly, prostrate on the ground, and muttered something.

Huang Liang didn't know what he was doing and couldn't stop him, so he looked at Hong Kui.

Hongkui said: "They worship the raven. In many places in North America, the Indians, the Haida... and even some Inuit tribes, the wolf and the raven are the most common totems. In many myths and legends, the raven is the most common totem. Crow is the god who brings light to mankind. There is a mythical story spread among the Indian tribes near Denali Mountain. It is said that at the beginning of the creation of the world, there was darkness between heaven and earth. There were no stars, moon and sun, and people could only Living in darkness. Later, it was a raven that flew through the night, through the clouds, and carried the sun from the God of Creation to the top of Denali. That became the home of the sun."

"So, is he sure that what he saw just now was a raven?" Huang Liang asked.

Hong Kui nodded thoughtfully, seeming to have remembered something, and smiled at Huang Liang again.

Huang Liang didn't expect the Indian god to guide them, since there was already a white wolf, but he really hoped that the raven was the one he knew.

After the Indian prayed on the ground, he stood up and looked toward the clouds again.

From his movements, Huang Liang was sure that the Indians could not see the white wolf. Otherwise, there would be no reason for him to be so pious to the raven but turn a blind eye to the white wolf, which was more easily associated with the sacred. But what is strange is the reaction of those Alaskan dogs. They obviously saw the white wolf, and perhaps felt the spiritual aura of the same kind. After all, wolves and dogs can be considered one family.

The Indian originally did not intend to go forward. In the face of the storm, he insisted on retreating, but since seeing the crow, his attitude changed. He took his dog and left without being urged by Hong Kui and Huang Liang. in front of. Of course he didn't know where to go, but fortunately those Alaskan dogs could feel the presence of the white wolf and followed behind it quietly.

This made Hong Kui and Huang Liang less worried. After all, they couldn't even open their eyes in the storm. Sometimes they couldn't see where the white wolf was, and their spiritual aura was intermittent. They were worried that they would lose the white wolf.

The storm is still going on, and is getting bigger and bigger. The howling wind can sweep people away at any time, with no intention of stopping at all.

Huang Liang asked the Indian guide: "How long will this snowstorm last?"

The guide said: "It's hard to say, it could be half an hour, or it could be all night. If you can't reach your destination before dark, you have to find a place to take shelter from the wind and rest."

Huang Liang asked again: "How long will it take us to climb to the top of the mountain?"

The Indian guide said: "It is impossible to climb the real Denali in such weather. If you want to climb the main peak, you must be going in the wrong direction now. Although I don't know where you are going or what you are doing, but Since there is a spirit to lead the way, the route should not be wrong.”

"The gods lead the way?" Huang Liang didn't turn around for a while.

"Yes, the Indian said, I just heard the crow of the raven. He will not appear on the plateau when the storm comes for no reason. It must be summoned by the gods. Didn't you see that my dogs are rushing on their own? I But I didn’t direct them where to go.”

Huang Liang and Hong Kui laughed at the same time. Although their laughter was covered up by the roaring wind, a trace of relaxation could still be felt in the air.

"Are you sure where we are going now?" Hong Kui asked.

The Indian nodded and said: "This route is very remote. Few people walk here, whether they are tourists, hunters, or explorers. I once passed by here when I was hunting a gray wolf. I remember that there was a mountain in front of me. The mountain is not too high, probably between the two main peaks of Denali. According to our current journey, if nothing happens, we can get there in about three hours."

The guide's words gave them a little peace of mind, but what Hong Kui was most worried about at the moment was that if the weather didn't improve, they wouldn't be able to see the moon at night even if they arrived at their destination.

Perhaps the storm affected the guide's judgment. It took them five hours to reach the peak that Huang Liang had seen in his dream. Fortunately, the journey was fairly smooth and there were no accidents. Not only the people, but also the nine dogs were not harmed at all.

It soon became dark. And just as Hong Kui expected, although the wind and snow became smaller, it had no intention of stopping, and the moon didn't know where it was.

At this time, not even the white wolf could be seen. Huang Liang tried to use his mental power to establish a connection with the white wolf, but found that he could not do anything. This was an empty hill with thick ice and snow on the ground.

Huang Liang asked Hong Kui if he had seen the white wolf. Hong Kui shook his head and said, "I can't see him, but I can feel that he is still there."

Huang Liang sighed: "Then let's wait. I hope God will help us and let us see the total lunar eclipse tonight."

Hong Kui said: "We have to rely on ourselves. If the weather continues to be unclear, we can only seek enlightenment in our dreams. Do you still remember the direction of the luminous point you saw in your dream that day?"

Huang Liang stood up, looked in all directions in the distance, shook his head and said: "No, after the total lunar eclipse there is complete darkness. Without the guidance of light, I can't determine the direction. What's more, I can't see anything in this ghost weather. "

Hong Kui patted him on the shoulder and said, "Then let's rest first and wait until the weather clears."

The advantage of bringing a sled dog is that you can pull a lot more things. They set up a temporary tent behind a large rock that could block the wind, replenished some water and food, and then quietly waited for the weather to improve.

Just as they were praying in the tent that the wind and snow would stop soon, the dogs outside started barking.

The Indian guide was the first to rush out of the tent, fearing that something had happened to his beloved dogs. Hong Kui followed closely, and Huang Liang was the last to go out.

As soon as he got out of the tent, he saw a strange scene:

It was still windy and snowy outside, and nine Alaskan dogs were huddled together, shivering in the strong wind. But they all raised their heads and sobbed to the sky.

And in the sky, there was a bright moon hanging at this moment.

A huge white wolf stood on the protruding rock in front. The fur on its body is whiter than the snow in Denali. Its eyes flashed with green light, like two emeralds left on the snowfield.

On a peak in the Denali Mountains with an altitude of nearly 5,000 meters, on a windy and snowy night, a white wolf howled at the bright moon in the sky.

Its white body turned into a black silhouette in the bright moonlight.

The howl penetrated the night, the sky and the earth.

Then, a small gap appeared on the edge of the moon.

The total lunar eclipse has begun.
