Chapter 9: Wild Wolves
Footprints?
When I saw these footprints, my body froze and my face became solemn.
The desert island is full of dangers, and this forest is a primeval forest, untouched.
There are many beasts that are a great threat to us.
I stepped forward step by step, crouched down, and found that the footprints seemed to have just been stepped on, and they were clearly visible.
Moreover, it is exactly the same as the wild wolf mark I saw in the mountains and forests of my hometown.
Do the footprints of wild wolves mean that there are wild wolves in this vicinity?
I was creepy, fine sweat appeared on my back, and I licked my dry lips.
"Zhang Jiayi, let's retreat..."
"Why withdraw, why withdraw, we finally found these wild fruits, Yang Zhi, you have something wrong. ”
Zhang Jiayi stood at the bottom of the fruit tree, looking at the fruit at the top of the tree, and a little disgust appeared in the depths of her pupils.
"Wild wolves, these paw prints are left by wild wolves, and the footprints are quite fresh, if we don't evacuate, we may encounter wolves. ”
As I spoke, I held the stick and pointed to the wolf footprints on the ground.
"Wild wolf, what wild wolf, let me see!"
Zhang Jiayi squatted down, looked at the dense footprints under the fruit tree, raised her head, and dismissed.
"Yang Zhi, are you scared stupid? The footprints can still be seen to be fresh?
Even if there are wild wolves here, I'm afraid they will have left a long time ago, so don't be alarmist here. ”
"A man is loud and timid as a mouse, no wonder he has no prospects!"
"Since you dare not linger here, I will go up to the tree and pick the fruit. ”
As she spoke, Zhang Jiayi ignored my dissuasion, grabbed the trunk of the tree, and climbed directly to the top of the fruit tree.
The fruit tree was not very tall and full of branches, and Zhang Jiayi quickly climbed up the fruit tree with some effort, taunting me while picking the fruit.
Say I'm too timid to make a big deal.
I have long known Zhang Jiayi's temperament, and I don't care much about her cynicism.
Instead, he picked up the wooden stick and stood cautiously under the fruit tree, paying attention to the movements around him, for fear that the wild wolves would attack.
About half an hour later, Zhang Jiayi had already picked a lot of fruits and was about to come down from the tree, but there was a gurgling sound next to the fruit tree.
The sound of footsteps, and the sound of paws stepping on fallen leaves.
My eyes widened, my stick in my hand, my face pale as paper, and I stared in the direction from which my footsteps came.
The footsteps are getting closer and closer, and gradually becoming clearer to the ear.
As I watched, a vine slowly lifted, and then a wild wolf more than a meter tall appeared in front of me through the leaves.
The wild wolf was quite huge, its eyes were as green as water, and it let out bursts of roars.
Sharp claws pressed against the leaves, tearing them to shreds.
There was silence, and there was silence.
I clutched the stick, only four or five meters away from the wolf, and I could even hear the wolf's heavy gasping and the earthy smell emanating from the wolf.
The two confronted each other, and the wolf's eyes were gloomy, without the slightest wave.
He looked at me coldly and was eager to try!
I knew that the other party was watching, trying to see my weaknesses, and I would be crushed with one blow.
At this moment, I have no way out.
As long as you take a step backwards and give your back to this wild wolf, you will definitely die.
Thinking of this, although my face was extremely pale, fine sweat began to appear on my forehead.
But the pupils were extraordinarily determined, ready to fight the wolf to the death.
And at this time, on the fruit tree behind her, Zhang Jiayi should have also seen this wild wolf.
At this moment, she no longer has the arrogant and domineering momentum she had before.
Quite frightened, quite frightened, standing motionless on top of the tree, and even his body began to tremble slightly.
I noticed Zhang Jiayi's reaction out of the corner of my eye, and I couldn't help but exhale a deep breath of turbidity, feeling quite disappointed.
I originally wanted Zhang Jiayi to stand on the tree and fight the wild wolf with the fruit, and the two of us could fight back and forth, maybe we could force the wild wolf back.
But now it seems that Zhang Jiayi has been frightened, and it is impossible for me to pin my hopes on her.
One-step!
Two steps!
Three steps!
The wolf was getting closer and closer to me, and I could even see the reflection in its eyes, and the hair on its body, clearly visible.
Just as I was about to smash the stick at the wolf.
Above the fruit tree, Zhang Jiayi let out a hysterical exclamation.
Fear, fear, and a deep despair.
The wolf was stunned for a moment under this scream, and glanced at me with a wary gaze.
Then, slowly, he retreated, and in a few moments, he disappeared into the depths of the jungle.
The wolf was gone, and all the strength in my body was withdrawn, and I leaned limply against the tree.
I was sweating profusely behind me, almost soaking my clothes.
Escaped and survived.
I leaned against the tree, gasping for air, and I felt my heart pounding, and I still have palpitations.
Four or five minutes later, Zhang Jiayi also climbed down from the tree, carrying a pile of fruit in her arms, and looked in the direction of the wolf's departure with fear.
But soon, she noticed me sweating profusely and exhausted, and a hint of disdain flashed in her moon-like eyes.
"Now that we've found the fruit, let's retreat quickly, or it won't be good for the wolf to reappear. ”
I got up from the ground and persuaded patiently.
Zhang Jiayi was quite disdainful and shook the fruit in her arms.
"What's the hurry? It's just a wild wolf, hasn't that wild wolf already left?
Let's explore a little further, and maybe we'll find other fruits.
What's the use of a big man being scared of being like this?"
As she spoke, she took the fruit in her hand and continued to walk forward.
Looking at Zhang Jiayi's commanding back, I felt a burst of anger in my heart, and I couldn't wait to shake my head and leave.
But considering that everyone is teammates on this desert island, he can only hold back the anger in his heart and continue to move forward after her.
The jungle is dense with endless vines.
I held the stick, picking at the vines as I watched the scene around me.
As I had expected, the south side of the desert island was sunny and full of fruit trees.
We didn't have to walk long before we found a few more fruit trees, the fruits hanging like lanterns on the trees, crystal clear, making people quite appetizing at the sight.
"As I say, there will be fruit further on, and if we all listen to you, we will all starve to death today. ”
Seeing the fruit tree, Zhang Jiayi was very proud and was about to walk towards the fruit tree.
My eyes widened and my gaze became solemn.
Under these fruit trees, there are still footprints of wild wolves.
