The wolf howls closer and closer. It was clear that a pack of wolves was coming this way.

Gu Bai covered his mouth with one of his front paws and stared nervously at the outside of the woods.

About a quarter of an hour later, a four-foot-long iron-gray male wolf appeared in his sight.

The male wolf trotted around outside the grove, returned to his original position, and raised his head to the moon and roared: "Woo-woo-"

After a few breaths, the wolf howl continued to sound in the distance.

"Uhhh

After a while, swishing, dozens of large and small iron-gray wolf shadows rushed over. They also did not enter the grove, but kept wandering around the male wolf.

It's almost all there. The male wolf turned around, trotted into the woods, and ran straight to the spring.

The wolves followed it and entered the forest one after another.

The male wolf drank enough water and trotted out of the woods again. At this time, the rest of the wolves roared up and surrounded them to drink.

Sure enough, they were here to drink water. Mu Wan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After hearing that the wolves had entered the range that she could sense with her breath, she closed her five senses again and examined the wolves—before, by hearing, she had judged that this was a pack of mortal wolves. The male wolf who arrived first was the largest, but it was no more than a hundred pounds. Now, she had to make sure through breath analysis.

That's right! They are just mortal beasts.

The wolves apparently had no interest in Little Red Fruit at all. They didn't even glance at the tree.

After drinking the water, under the leadership of the male wolf, the wolves were clothed in the moonlight again and ran to the vast Gobi, and finally. Melt into the endless night.

"A lot of wolf ......" Gu Bai's tense body finally relaxed, nested in the branch again, and hummed a little embarrassed. If it had been before, he wouldn't have been afraid of these stinking mortal beasts. And now, his spiritual power has been sealed and he has turned into a useless young fox, which even these mortal beasts can't beat. Frustrated again......

As it turned out, the wolves were just the beginning.

a yellow-skinned sheep with sharp horns, and a wild camel with a high bulge on its back...... There was even Gu Bai's kind, a small fox that looked gray and was slightly larger than him. These animals come in herds. Wave after wave. Come and drink water.

Mu Wan noticed that these animals, without exception, were all mortal beasts. Moreover. None of them went around the little red fruit trees.

Finally. The first light appeared in the sky, and the shadows of beasts gradually disappeared in the woods.

However, the birds in the forest woke up. chirping, fluttering and flying out of the nest, so lively.

I don't think there will be any beasts coming over for the time being. Mu Wan lowered her head and discussed with Gu Bai: "Ah Bai, let's rest here for a few days, and then leave here and find a way back, okay?" "It's a strange place, and she wants to wait for her eyes to regain her sight before she goes out.

"Okay." There is food and drink here, and Gu Bai doesn't care.

In this way, a man and a fox temporarily settled down in the grove.

From the second night, Mu Wan began to hunt. Of course, as a new blind person, her spiritual power was sealed, and she didn't dare to fight the wolves with her bare hands. However, someone had practiced a good secret weapon and bullied the wolves for not being able to climb trees, so he decided to hide in a tree and assassinate them.

The weapon is to pick up some small pebbles the size of a dragon's eye in the sand.

When the wolves came to drink, she used pebbles as a secret weapon to kill them.

For the first time, she tried to distinguish the position by listening to the sound, which was mentioned in the Ancestor's collection. Hehe, she thinks she's still hearing well. Especially after being blind, it seems that my hearing is improved by somersault.

Whoosh-, whoosh-, whoosh-.

She threw three pebbles in quick succession.

Failed three times, but successfully introduced the attention of the male wolf. It trotted over and slowly circled under the tree.

Gu Bai was so frightened that he stood up, his whole body tense.

Really lose the face of the cultivation realm...... Mu Wan touched her nose in embarrassment and decided to change the method. This time, she closed her five senses and sensed the outside world with her breath.

Well, clearly, there should be no more misses.

She didn't choose a male wolf under the tree - it was a wolf. If you kill it, will the wolves go berserk? It's hard to beat four fists with both hands, she's a new blind person, and don't try to challenge the whole wolf pack.

After picking a circle among the wolves, in the end, Mu Wan chose another male wolf with a shiny coat.

Sou!

She made her fourth shot, with all her might.

Pebbles burst out of the air.

In the next breath, the head of a male wolf who had just finished drinking water and trotted out of the spring blossomed. Bloodlines fly. It "plopped" and fell to the ground, twitching its four legs, and died of exhaustion.

The wolves were alarmed.

Male wolves react the fastest. It screamed, and the first one ran out of the woods.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

In the blink of an eye, the wolves in the woods ran away with their tails between their legs.

However, they did not leave, but wandered outside the woods, whining and whispering.

"Hit!" Gu Bai said in a happy low voice.

Later, the wolves returned. The male wolf stood far away from the woods, and the wolves cautiously approached the corpses of their kind.

After they entered the range of breath perception, Mu Wan decisively struck again.

Sou!

Pebbles flew out.

"Horn!"

In order to deter the wolves, this time, she deliberately chose a young she-wolf sandwiched between the wolves.

The little she-wolf fell in response. Pebbles passed through its left eye and flew out from the back of its head, knocking off half of its head. Blood poured out.

"Whoa—whoa—" Outside the woods, the male wolf's howl was very fierce. It burrowed into the night without looking back.

When the wolves received the order, they all grabbed their tails and ran out of the woods, following closely behind.

"Great. They're scared away! Gu Bai cheered.

"You're in the trees. I'm going to pick them up, lest the wolves come back. Mu Wan flew down the tree with the "Eight Steps" of Leisure, grabbed two wolf corpses one after another, and put them high on the two surrounding trees.

Sure enough, about half an hour passed. The wolves are back. They didn't dare to go into the woods, so they circled outside.

Gu Bai saw this. yawned, curled up in a ball of relief, and slept - with Sister Mu here, there was nothing to worry about!

In the end, the wolves did not dare to enter the forest. When it was about to dawn, a wolf howl sounded in the distance. The wolves left in twos and threes.

The other critters didn't show up all night.

After dawn, Mu Wan made up for sleep, took the corpse of a wolf from the tree, brought it to the spring, and instructed Gu Bai: "Ah Bai, you are watching here." I went outside and picked a sharp stone. "Heart: I knew today. You should learn diligently. Hide a small dagger or something in your boots.

No, Gu Bai jumped on the wolf's belly, stretched out a front paw, and grabbed it with a snort.

Whoa. The wolf's belly was immediately cut open with a gaping hole that was a foot long.

"Sister Mu. I'll skin the wolf. He looked up. Said happily.

Wow, I finally feel like I'm using a little bit!

Mu Wan was slightly stunned, and then he was stunned. Bent down, reached out and rubbed its head: "Okay." I'm going to take the other one down as well. It's all up to you. Peel the wolf's skin as large as possible. Perhaps, we can find a market nearby and exchange it for something useful. "Well, I almost forgot that Ah Bai is a two-tailed phantom spirit fox that has entered the incarnation level. Even if the spiritual power is sealed, it is also an existence beyond ordinary mortal beasts!

"Good!" Gu Bai lowered his head, waved his two front paws, and hurried away.

Mu Wan still has to go to dry wood and dead grass and leaves. The collection of the ancestors once mentioned an ancient method of making fire: drilling wood to make fire. It is said that even mortals can use it. She was no different from a mortal now and decided to give it a try.

Soon, Mu Wan found all the tools she needed: a piece of dry wood, a one-foot-long hardwood stick, a handful of scorched grass roots, and some dead branches and leaves.

She first chose a flat place by the spring and spread the dead branches and leaves on the ground. The roots of the grass are coiled into soft nests and placed on top of dead branches and leaves. Then, use your fingers to make a small hole in the dry, rotten wood block, just the size of a hardwood stick.

When she was ready, she stepped on the rotten wood with her foot and held it in place. The hardwood stick was inserted into the small hole, and his hands quickly rubbed the wooden stick back and forth.

After a while, smoke began to emerge from the small hole in the rotten wood.

However, it is far from enough. She wants an open flame, not black smoke!

Go on! Faster!

The black smoke is getting louder and louder...... Finally, she felt some sparks twinkling beneath her feet. The fine sawdust that had been rubbed out was ignited and landed in the roots of the hay in the shape of the nest.

Removing the rotten wood, she carefully picked up the roots of the hay, puffed out her mouth, and gently blew the red sparks.

The black smoke is getting thicker and thicker. Whew, a faint flame burst out.

It's done!

Mu Wan put the fine grass roots under the dead branches and leaves that had been scorched by the sun. The flames leaped. The fire burned.

Over there, Gu Bai's speed was not weak, not only did he finish skinning a wolf, but also cleaned his internal organs.

"Ah Bai, so neat." Mu Wan couldn't help but praise, broke off a long branch the thickness of a baby's arm, skewered the whole wolf, and roasted it on the fire.

Gu Bai grinned proudly and lowered his head to deal with the second one.

The wolf skin that was peeled off was taken to the water's edge to be scrubbed and cleaned, and spread out in the sun to dry.

Since there was wolf meat to eat, Gu Bai no longer ate small red fruits. Now, his throat is completely healed, and the effect of eating small red fruits is the same as eating wolf meat, both are just filling his stomach. And Mu Wan eats small red fruits, but he can replenish his spiritual power. Therefore, it is better to leave the little red fruits to Mu Wan.

However, despite his small size, he has a terrifyingly large appetite. You can eat half a wolf in one meal! If meat does not fight hunger, he has to eat three meals a day.

Fortunately, guarding the grove, Mu Wan didn't worry about no prey to fight......

In the blink of an eye, five days have passed.

The bag on the back of Mu Wan's head finally subsided completely. His eyes were regained.

In the few days since she lost her sight, her ability to discern the outside world with her breath has improved rapidly. Now, with only her four senses closed, she can also clearly perceive the outside world. Moreover, the range of perception has been able to cover the entire grove.

It's just that the number of animals who come to drink water at night is getting fewer and fewer day by day. It seems that even mortal beasts are very smart.

In the afternoon, the sun collected its blazing rays and hung lazily on the west side of the sky.

Mu Wan filled the wolf skin water bladder with water, carried the small red fruit and dried meat on his back, took Gu Bai, and stepped into the vast Gobi again-although the small oasis is good, it is not a place to stay for a long time. Now that the eye injury has healed, she must find a way back to the sect. (To be continued.) )
