Chapter 82: Wild Dog's Counterattack
"Brother, brother!" Nan Nan lay beside Zhiwen and called softly, "The fire is going out." ”
"Ugh." Zhiwen woke up from his slumber, "I'm sorry, I accidentally fell asleep." ”
"It's okay, Brother Zhiwen, I'm watching with Nannan." Niu Niu sat next to her, looking at the four large fires in the distance.
The skyrocketing flames had been extinguished, leaving only four dark red fireballs, with the occasional spark escaping and quickly extinguishing in the darkness.
"Wang ...... Woof! There were several dog barks in the distance.
"Is there anyone else at this late hour?" Nan Nan frowned.
"Probably not." Zhiwen thought about it, if someone came over to see the situation at the beginning of the fire, it would be reasonable.
Now that the fire is almost gone, far less conspicuous than it was just now, and fewer people can notice.
Besides, so many people have night blindness, and few people come to watch the excitement in the dark in order to satisfy a little curiosity.
"It is estimated that Xiaojie and they can't stay still, and they want to ask what to do." As he spoke, Zhiwen took out the fire fold from the warehouse, lit a torch, and shook it in the air a few times.
The current fire folds are made of shrubs and firewood in the system processing workshop, which is much easier to use than this era, and the fire folds prepared by the original have long been used up, and Xiaolin and theirs have also been confiscated by Zhiwen, for no other reason, I am afraid that they will play with fire and self-immolation, and they will eat together anyway.
Now except for Zhiwen, no one has a fire fold on him, and he lights a torch, as long as everyone else is not stupid, he knows that Zhiwen is here.
"Let Xiaojie Xiaolin and them all come to us, it's good here, let's rest here tonight." Zhiwen smiled and said, "Let's build a fire again so that they can see more clearly." ”
"Don't you leave the four fires alone?" Nan Nan asked.
"I'll clean it up tomorrow morning." Although the open fire is extinguished, the dark fire is still very strong, and I don't know how long it will be.
Besides, before the ignition, they specially cleaned up the flammable materials around the fire, so they didn't have to worry about causing wildfires.
"Xiao Jie, you arrange for the night watch." After everyone arrived one after another, Zhiwen ordered, and prepared to sleep in clothes, there is no time to build a shack tonight, just sleep on the ground, the weather is hot, and it is not cold at night.
"By the way, wash your hands and face with the water in the water bladder, and you don't have to take a shower tonight." I can't wash it if I want to.
"Brother Zhi, Brother Xiaojie." Dacheng and his brother watered each other and washed their hands, and suddenly said to Zhiwen and them, "If you don't leave it to us tonight, you are all tired." ”
"Oh?" Xiao Jie was lining up people in his head, and shook the water droplets on his hand when he heard the words, "Just you, can you do it?" "He's a little uneasy.
"Don't worry, Brother Jie." Dacheng washed up, shook his hand and said, "I'll keep an eye on it, we can't help much, it's okay to do a little help." ”
"Okay, I'll let it go, it's up to you tonight!" Xiao Jie is not polite, mainly because no matter what he does, he can feel Zhiwen's trust and rest assured of him, and under the influence of Zhiwen, he naturally won't worry that Dacheng will not be able to do this well.
......
In the middle of the night, the four large fires in the distance had been completely extinguished, and Zhiwen's small fires also seemed weak.
Dacheng's head was a little heavier, and then immediately raised again.
"Bang bang." Dacheng gently patted his face a few times with his hand, and kept telling himself in his heart that he couldn't sleep, and it would be dawn soon.
He arranged for himself to be the last shift, although he made bold words in front of Xiao Jie, but for the first time, he was fully responsible for the night, and he was a little uneasy after all, so he always accompanied his partners on duty.
When it was Dacheng's turn, he was already very tired, and there was no one to talk to him to relieve his boredom, nodding vigorously, dozing off like a chicken pecking rice, and didn't even notice that the fire next to him was about to go out.
The light of the fire became fainter and fainter, and the flames became smaller and smaller, until at last only a wisp of green smoke remained, which disappeared in an instant, and the fire was extinguished.
Looking at Dacheng again, sitting cross-legged on the ground, his head hanging low, his chin resting on his chest, already asleep.
A breeze swept by, rolling up a few wisps of embers of the fire, and in the endless darkness in the distance, suddenly two small, flickering green lights lit up.
As it approached silently, the light also changed from small to large, and when they were close to Zhiwen, where was the green light, it was clearly a wild dog, and the flickering green light was its eyes in the dark night.
The wild dog grinned, baring its white teeth, and did not bark, as if mocking silently, it turned its head to look left and right, and finally locked its gaze on Dacheng, who was seated.
The others were lying on the ground, next to each other, sleeping soundly, and attacking them would inevitably alarm the others, and besides, it would be inconvenient to bow their heads and attack the target on the ground.
It is better at hitting targets in mid-air from the ground, yes, just like Dacheng who is sitting now, although his throat is blocked by his chin, but the height is just right, as long as he pounces on his chest, he must lean back into the sky and expose his throat, and then as long as one mouth is closed again, he can bite off the throat on the side of his mouth.
The wild dog bypassed the extinguished fire and came to the front of Dacheng, although the fire had been extinguished, but the ashes were still exuding residual warmth, and the wild dog naturally had a sense of fear of the fire.
But he said that Dazhu, sleeping has always been very dead, and after doing so much work during the day, no matter how good his body is, he is also very tired, and this is the time to sleep.
But before going to bed, he was very thirsty, and at the end of the day, he didn't know how many sweats he had, so he asked Zhiwen for a bag full of water and drank it all.
At this time, the feeling of fullness in the lower abdomen woke up the big pillar.
Dazhu turned over from the ground and propped himself up, and the corner of his eye seemed to see a black shadow flashing, thanks to the concept of crisis that Zhiwen has always instilled, and the awareness of prevention that he cultivated every day and night after fleeing, Dazhu's sleepiness disappeared in an instant, and he picked up a shovel at hand.
Da Zhu quickly looked to the left and right, everything was normal, Dacheng was in front of his side, sitting on the ground with his back to him, there was no black shadow, was it his eyes, Da Zhu began to doubt himself.
However, Dazhu soon noticed that something was wrong, and in the silence of the night, except for the crackling sound of the fire burning, it should have been silent, but he clearly heard the "rustle" caused by something pressing against the grass and then leaving.
This is...... Footsteps? It's not the footsteps of people, it's too soft, then it's ......
As soon as Da Zhu's thoughts turned here, he saw a black shadow suddenly burst out from in front of Dacheng, who was facing away from him, and rushed straight towards Dacheng's chest.
Wild dog or wolf? No wonder I couldn't see it just now, it turned out to be blocked by Dacheng.
Also, is this Dacheng stupid? How to be motionless.
Thinking in his heart, Da Zhu's hands were not idle, and with his loud shout, the shovel in his hand just now was thrown out by him with all his might, and the tip of the shovel pointed directly at Dacheng's chest, intending to block the beast before it pounced on Dacheng.
