What is hiding in the grass behind me?

Is someone ambushing me?

Zhou Kun immediately rejected his conjecture.

I’m not a big shot, and there is no need for someone to go that trouble. However, these dark green eyes look like they belong to an animal and not a human.

Could it be a wolf?

Zhou Kun was taken aback by his own speculation.

Recalling that there were still plenty of badly-mangled corpses in front, Zhou Kun wondered if a wolf had been attracted by the smell of blood. 

However, why is it staring at me instead of eating the corpses? 

Were wolves of the other world so picky that they insist on eating on live prey? 

The more he thought about it, the more terrified he felt. Zhou Kun looked at the grass nonchalantly in an attempt to confirm whether he had seen it incorrectly.

To his surprise, he exchanged glances with that pair of eyes as soon as he glanced at the grass. 

Zhou Kun’s entire body stiffened, and he was afraid that his extra movements would cause the owner of those eyes to counterattack.

The two maintained eye contact, and Zhou Kun dared not blink at all. However, the despair-inducing matter was that the owner of those eyes was obviously not ready to let Zhou Kun off easily.

There was a greater movement in the grass, and the other party decided not to hide anymore.

A sharp pair of fangs appeared in the grass. It was indeed a wolf! 

Zhou Kun was filled with despair. 

Wait a minute!

This doesn’t seem right.

The creature that moved out of the glass did have dark green eyes! 

It also had taut and upright ears! 

However, it was wagging its tail violently, and the more Zhou Kun looked at it, the more he felt that it was the legendary husky. 

“Woof…” The creature barked before tilting its head to look at Zhou Kun. 

Yes, this silly thing is definitely a husky.

Zhou Kun felt like he had been on an emotional roller coaster ride. A second ago, he was worried that he would be killed by the wolf, and at the next second, he just wanted to beat up the stupid dog in front of him.

However, Zhou Kun dared not let his guard down yet. After all, there had been a drastic change that happened to the dragon fruit. It wasn’t impossible for the husky of the other world to be a menacing beast. 

“Scram…go away!” Zhou Kun suddenly jumped up to frighten the silly dog in front of him, but the latter remained unfazed. Instead, it continued to tilt its head to look at him.

Zhou Kun was so infuriated with the silly dog that he took out two dragon fruits from the basket and threw them at the silly dog.

“Woof…” The silly dog did not expect Zhou Kun to do that all of a sudden. After being hit by the dragon fruits, it shrieked and left. 

Upon sight of its reaction, Zhou Kun finally heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was was just an ordinary dog. If it were really a wolf, he would probably lose his life there. 

All of a sudden, there was a faint noise coming from a distance which made Zhou Kun realize that he had better leave the place quickly.

After all, there had just been a battle outside the city, and the supplementary aid from the two parties may arrive at any time. If they were to see him with such a large number of dragon fruits, he wouldn’t be able to explain it well.

At the thought of that, Zhou Kun subconsciously sped up and tied all the dragon fruits up together. He had already prepared for the worst and moved as many dragon fruits as he could. Even if he had to give up the dragon fruits when necessary, he had to keep himself safe.

All of a sudden, he heard a strange noise coming from behind him, and at the moment that Zhou Kun turned around, he saw a huge face belonging to a dog, pouncing forward with a leap of faith.

Zhou Kun was thrown to the ground, but when he landed, the scene around him had already changed, and he had been thrown back into the cold storage warehouse.

On the other hand, the silly dog ​​looked curiously at the scene around him that had shifted all of a sudden, with confusion in its eyes. Wasn’t he still in the wild just now?

Where was this? 

Zhou Kun suspected that when the silly dog ​​pounced onto him, the force he received was at least a hundred kilograms, and he was in so much pain that he couldn’t exert any force at all. 

“Silly dog, what are you waiting for? Scram…” After hollering and scaring the silly dog away, Zhou Kun rubbed his chest for a long time before he finally felt comfortable. 

He looked around, and to his astonishment, the silly dog in front of him also followed him back.

Does this passage allow me to bring living creatures back too?

Later, when Zhou Kun thought of the first time that he used the passage, he remembered that Pilux had followed him back to the cold storage warehouse, but he didn’t take it seriously at the time.

It seems that I should be more cautious about the passage in the future. After all, if someone who is interested ends up using this passage to reverse-transmigrate or something, things will be difficult to handle.

However, the most critical issue now was how he should deal with the silly dog ​​in front of him. 

The silly husky didn’t seem to know that it had just offended the person in front of him, as it was still looking at Zhou Kun with a grin.

“Silly dog, come here!” Zhou Kun exclaimed. He initially didn’t want to get angry at a dog, but he felt like the dog was asking for it.

Zhou Kun didn’t know the reason why he could often see the hidden meaning in the dog’s eyes. For example, he could now tell that the silly dog that was facing him with its nostrils was saying, ‘Stupid human being, how can you keep up with me?’ 

Zhou Kun immediately flew into a rage and he thought, ‘How can I not defeat a dog?’ 

“Don’t run, stay still!” Zhou Kun got up and swiftly chased after the silly dog, only to have the latter dodge nimbly. 

The silly dog still remembered to turn its head and look at him. 

Zhou Kun utterly detested the silly dog which had just pounced onto him and caused him to sustain bruises as though he had been in a fight. Besides, it was a beast that he had brought back from the other world after all. Even though it looked like a pet dog, Zhou Kun wouldn’t leave it there. He would send it back as soon as possible. 

“Hold it right there. Stop…” 

However, after ten minutes, Zhou Kun had no choice but to face reality. It seemed that he really couldn’t defeat the silly dog. 

“Silly dog, no! I mean, Big Brother Dog, let’s stop playing and take a break, alright?” asked Zhou Kun who was running out of breath because his stamina had deteriorated after lacking training for a long time. 

The husky in front of him looked silly and seemed to be asking Zhou Kun why he wanted to stop playing. It wanted to get close to Zhou Kun but was worried that he might be pretending. Hence, it stuck his tongue out and looked at Zhou Kun.

“Brother Dog, I admit defeat, let’s not play.” Although Zhou Kun was tired from running after a while, the low temperature in the cold storage was still unbearable to Zhou Kun.

“It’s too cold inside, I’ll take you out,” Zhou Kun said, regardless of whether the husky could understand him or not. 

He had a subtle hunch that the dog in front of him seemed to be able to understand what he was talking about, so he tried to slow down and communicate with it.

The silly dog tilted its head and ​​looked at Zhou Kun. It was unclear whether it was tired or if it had understood Zhou Kun’s words, but it actually followed him slowly to the door of the cold storage warehouse.

“If you come out, I will buy you delicious food,” Zhou Kun continued to lie patiently.

The husky in front of him was obviously still hesitant, but Zhou Kun did not rush it.

Finally, the man and the dog walked out of the cold storage warehouse. 

Sensing the warmth of the air outside the cold storage warehouse, Zhou Kun smiled wryly while thinking to himself, ‘What do I do? I actually brought a Master Dog back from my trip to restock on dragon fruit.’
