In the northwest corner of the emergency aid station, five kilometers away in the direction of River Source Protection Station, there was a mound that used to be a ground squirrel hole but had been taken over by a Tibetan fox and then coveted by a pack of stray dogs.
Of course, the small hole couldn't possibly fit too many dogs, and with food being scarce in the surrounding area, the adult dogs eventually left for the valley, leaving behind only two puppies.
When Black Gold arrived here with his companions, the stray dog that was pretending to be Red Lion was backing into the cave with a bone that had hardly any meat left on it.
Without intending to, the stray dog's gaze met Black Gold's.
Black Gold did not back away, his lips quivered revealing his sharp canine teeth.
Behind him, the three Labrador pups also bared their tiny teeth following Black Gold's lead.
A clash of black with gold, a clash of brown with red, collided in mid-air.
