"It's okay, it's just that I'm always not sure in my heart, and I always feel like something is going to happen tonight!"
Miao Lao Pao shook his head gently, since he went up the mountain, he has always been unsettled in the past two days; Especially tonight, he felt that his heart was beating hard, and he had a faint feeling of panic, as if some danger was approaching.
He understood that this was a subconscious reflection of his decades of wandering in the mountains and forests, which gave him a premonition of the danger that might be approaching in the mountains, and he had escaped several crises with this feeling before; It's just that this time is different, he came with a mission, and he can't just take these descendants behind him with him.
So, he can only be as prepared as possible and be vigilant.
took the bamboo rat handed over from Yun Yi's hand, and saw that it was a whole bamboo rat, so he immediately smiled slightly, glanced at Yun Yi, and then slowly gnawed on the bamboo rat.
"Uncle Cannon, what other big wolves or leopards and black blind people are on this mountain?"
At this time, Long Xiaotian also sat down, handed the two half-bamboo rats on bamboo sticks in his hand to Yun Yi, and then looked at the darkness outside with a somewhat cautious expression and asked.
"Hehe, you are also a person who often walks in the woods, it seems that you also think that the situation here is wrong?" Looking at Long Xiaotian's expression, Miao Lao Pao smiled slightly, feeling that this person was not simple from his expression.
Long Xiaotian nodded slightly, looking at the pitch-black, but very quiet mountain forest, his brows furrowed slightly: "The mountains and forests outside here are too quiet, as if there are some fierce beasts nearby, and the mind is always quiet!" β
Miao Lao Pao nodded slightly. After seeing the darkness outside, he said with a smile: "Let's go back, except for wolves who sometimes come out in this Qingyun Valley, other big animals generally don't come out; This wolf king is also a smart lord, and he usually won't come to look for our bad luck! β
Having said that, Miao Lao Pao's expression was faintly dignified.
"Uncle Pao, are there still wolves in this Qingyun Valley?" Yun Yi looked at Miao Lao Pao in surprise, it was the first time he had heard that there were wolves in the Qingyun Mountain generation.
"Why not, there is more than one group of wolves in this Qingyun Valley, and there are at least three groups of wolves in my old man's knowledge. That's at least seventy or eighty! β
Miao Lao Pao walked as he walked, and then returned to the camp to gather all the firewood by the fire, and arranged the time for night watch; Although he didn't arrange for himself to be on duty all night, Yun Yi knew that Miao Lao Pao would definitely not sleep all night.
Yun Yi lay down and slept against the fire, the white sheep squatted beside Yun Yi, suddenly raised his head high, sniffed hard in the air a few times, and then looked fixedly at the dark night in the mountains and woodlands outside the camp.
"You guy. Hurry up and go to sleep, I'm still thinking about roasting bamboo rats! Yun Yi yawned, patted Yun Yi lightly, and then fell into a deep sleep.
Aries stared at the darkness in the distance for a long time. Then he silently lay beside Yun Yi, closed his eyes and rested.
Yunyi felt that he had just fallen asleep, and he felt that it didn't take long for someone to wake up to watch the night.
He was on duty from 10 to 12 o'clock at night, although the weather in February was already in spring. But it was still a bit biting cold on the night; Sitting by the fire, listening to the 'crackling' sound of the firewood burning in the fire, and watching the big trees in the mountains and forests outside the camp swaying in the slight cold wind. It's as if some demon is whimpering inside.
The white sheep was lying at the feet of Yunyi, leaning against the fire, this guy seemed to sleep very sweetly, his eyes were closed peacefully, and his waist and abdomen were lying together, which showed that this guy slept very smoothly.
After sitting for a while, Yun Yi saw that the time was only half past ten, and he felt a little thirsty, he reached into the space from his backpack, just took out an apple, and was about to take a bite, when suddenly the white sheep under his feet suddenly turned over from the ground, which made Yun Yi laugh for a while, and said: "Aries, you kid really deserves to be related to the dog, and the nose is so sensitiveγγγ
Before he finished speaking, Yun Yi closed his mouth, because Aries didn't look at him at all, but stared at the direction of the mountain and woodland with his two eyes, his limbs sank slightly, and his mouth made a 'whine' sound.
Yun Yi's heart sank, and he was about to call Miao Lao Pao to get up, when suddenly Miao Lao Pao's tent shook suddenly, and Miao Lao Pao, who had not taken off his clothes, rushed out with a gun, and after a little look around, he stared at the place where Aries was on guard.
"Wolves!"
Miao Lao Pao stared at the place with a serious expression, and said slowly.
As if he had recited some incantation, a pair of green eyes, with the voice of Miao Lao Cannon, came out of the darkness, one by one, and the wolves running back and forth made Yun Yi count how many wolves there were, but at least it was estimated that there were more than fifteen.
"Uncle Pao, don't wake them up, hurry up and prepare carefully!" Yun You looked at the pair of green eyes with a panicked expression, this is the first time he has grown so big, the first time he has met a wolf, oh, the second time he met a wolf, but the first time he met a wolf pack, it was still at night, so it made him very panicked.
"Not for the time being, the wolves in the mountains rarely attack people!" Miao Lao Pao shook his head lightly and said, his words made Yun Yi's mind relax a lot, but Miao Lao Pao's words next made Yun Yi scared again.
"However, this spring is uncertain, at this time, the wolf cubs in Qingyun Valley are born, but Qingyun Valley is the most scarce at this time of year; If these guys are hungry, they might actually attack people! β
"Whew!"
Miao Lao Pao's words seemed to be the most effective witch spell, and as soon as the words fell down the mountain forest, a loud wolf howl sounded.
The wolf's howl pierced through the clouds and lungs, making Yun Yi's feet slightly soft, and a chill came out of his heart; And the pair of green eyes in the mountain woodland also began to slowly approach the camp.
The people in the camp also woke up at this time with the wolf howl, and everyone looked at the wolves blankly, panicking for a while, and the timid people even softened on the ground.
"These brutes, it seems that they really want to keep all of us here today!" Listening to the sound of the wolf howling, Miao Lao Pao's face was gloomy like water, and he turned his head and loudly ordered Yun Yi and the others to retreat to the fire immediately, and took out the hunting crossbow and firewood knife they carried with him to guard against him.
As for himself, he slowly stepped back, and loaded the earthen gun in his hand with a cannon on the fire door; As for the barrel, it was filled with gunpowder and steel balls long before going to bed.
Yun Yi retreated to the fire with everyone, and the white sheep who had been guarding Yun Yi's side just now did not get too close to the fire, although he had lived with humans for a long time, but the fear in his bones made the white sheep still have a distance of four or five meters from the fire, which was far beyond the fear that ordinary wolves could endure fire.
