Chapter 36: Corpse burning

With the help of gestures, Joan finally made the Greyhound understand his question. To his satisfaction, Gray gave a positive answer.
"We have to throw the lizardman's body into the fire and burn it clean, so as not to leave a line index for more hunters. In addition, this place can't stay anymore, you have to change your residence in the future, it is better to stay away from the lizardman tribe "Joan instructed Gray while throwing the skin of the Lizardman Shaman into the sea of ​​fire."
Gray nodded halfway, following Joan's behavior, grabbed the body of the Lizardman Shaman and threw it into the sea of ​​fire, then dragged the bodies of the two Lizardman Samurai into the fire one by one.
Joan saw that the fire was getting bigger and he urged Gray to leave the island as soon as possible. Grey reached out and picked him up, put it on his shoulders, and ran as fast as he came, leaving the island in less than ten minutes.
Joan looked back at the small island shrouded in flames, recalling the time he spent with Grey on the island, and he couldn't help but feel sad. However, compared to giving up this residence, he was more fortunate that he and Gray were able to escape the killing of Chud and others, secretly praying that the fire was burning more, and burned all the bodies of the three lizard men to ashes, eliminating the traces of the scene. .
"Gray, we all have to avoid the limelight for the next time, and we can't see each other for the time being." Seeing the gray bag's face showing up, Joan patiently explained to it: "Don't forget the man who witnessed us kill the lizard man by mistake The female crocodile of Shaman Cohen is still alive, and the leader of the Lizardmen tribe can learn about your appearance and features from her, plus Chud, if the three of them can't go back, they will definitely send more lizardmen to follow us For safety reasons, I have to stay away from the swamp temporarily to avoid the lizardmen’s hunt. You have to find a place far away from the lizardmen’s sphere of influence to hide. After avoiding the thunder, we will try to meet again.

As for how long to avoid and how to restore contact in the future, Joan has no clue for the time being, so he can only take one step at a time.
Gray's mind is simple, but his intuition is very sharp. Joan can only understand a small part of it, but it is not difficult to feel Joan's concern for it through his manners, and then agree with the decision he made.
"Gray, take care." Before the separation, Joan endured the tearing impulse to hug the gray bag, "I hope this storm will calm down as soon as possible, and we will meet again someday."
Grey nodded heavily, tearfully watching Joan's back gradually away, until it disappeared into the depths of the reeds swaying in the wind on the edge of the swamp. It wasn’t until Gray opened all three pairs of eyes to the maximum that he couldn’t find Joan’s figure, so he had to face the reality that he had left, wiped the tears in the corner of his eyes, took a heavy footstep, and turned to become strange and The cramped swamp.
With reluctance, Gray looked back for the last time, and the fiery sunset reflected in his eyes. However, at the moment of a glance, it was pleasantly surprised to find that thin figure went back and forth, and returned to his vision again.
"Mott!" The Grey Bag Beast cheered and strode towards the familiar figure.
"In any case, I still can't bear to leave you alone." Going back to Gray again, Joan's face was gone, and he was replaced with unprecedented calmness and firmness. "Lizardmen's forces are all over the swamp. , You can’t find a real refuge here, go with me and take you to an absolutely safe place."
Gray is happy as long as he is with Joan, and he doesn't care much about staying in the swamp or going elsewhere. Without any hesitation he accepted Joan's suggestion and followed him away from the swamp.
It was nearly dusk, and Joan took Gray along the Delin River all the way north, and quietly came to the vicinity of Delin town under the cover of the woods, and did not alarm any local residents along the way.
Joan knew that the residents of Delin would not welcome such a gruesome monster like Gray. If he took Gray directly into the town, it would surely cause a riot. Eventually, Gray would be driven out of the town by angry militia. Or even Gray took him out of the country together.
Joan does not intend to try to persuade the townspeople to accept Gray-this is pure effort. He waited patiently in the woods until the night shrouded the earth, the lights in the town went out one after another, the streets were empty and no pedestrians could be seen. Then he turned back and gestured to Grey to follow him.
Joan was born and raised in Delin and was very familiar with the terrain near the town. Instead of risking taking Gray straight to the main entrance, he went around the hill behind the town under the cover of the woods. Climbing over a mountain beam, sliding down the sloping slope, and going forward not far from the woods run by old Guillaume Tell.
The forest in Houshan is quite dense, and it is now in mid-February. The snow in the forest has not completely melted, and the residents of the town rarely dwell here. Joan intends to temporarily place Gray in a forest hut. The woods are rich in prey. In addition to the hares and pheasants that can be seen in all seasons, as the weather gets warmer, larger beasts such as wild boars, black bears and badgers have also become active. Skill is not difficult to get enough prey in the jungle. As for the beasts that can threaten it... according to Joan's experience, there is no one, which can be called the existence at the top of the food chain.
It's a pity that the plan is not as good as it was. When they were about to approach the forest hut, there was a sudden barking of dogs in front of them. The forest immediately lit a light and swayed towards this side.
"Jami, did you find the wild boar again?" The voice of the girl came from behind the bush.
The gray bag beast seemed to feel threatened, clenched his fists in a sudden, six eyes flashed with fine eyes, and slightly laid his attacking attitude on the burly body.
Joan hurriedly stopped Gray and shouted across the bush: "It's me!"
"Joan?" Kandy came over in surprise, and a magical orange-colored light bulged from the top of the stick in his hand, illuminating the dark woods around him.
Half-breed Winter Wolf Jamie followed Conti out of the bush, and saw Joan immediately cheering, and Fei ran to the little master, and sometimes watched Gray with vigilance, full of vigilance for the big man.
A slight rustling sound came from behind Kandy, and the young sperm Mila stood in the bushes, the leaves and leaves covering the naked carcass, casting a curious sight on Joan and Gray. Perhaps it was frightened by the gigantic image of the Grey Bag Beast. When he contacted Grey's eyes, he hurriedly shrank his head to hide behind Condy.
Joan squatted to caress Jamie's hairy ears and softly introduced him to the new friend behind him. Jamie was clever and lively, and did not have the concept of judging people by appearance. With the encouragement of Joan, he approached Gray actively, and gave a friendly growl, raising a front paw to greet it.
