Chapter 10: A Thrilling Night

Yu Zhou sat up and hurriedly touched the side, fortunately, Yue Yue was still sleeping sweetly, looking around, Cao Leather Maker and Song Carpenter were each guarding a fire with a torch in their left hand and a firewood knife in their right hand, and the women and old people of several families were standing against the car, and the Luan brothers were one person with a wooden stick with an expression of choosing someone to devour.

There were no wolves to be seen in the boundless darkness, but the sound of "whooping" was getting closer and closer, and Yu Zhou looked around anxiously, there was almost no one to rely on except this big car nearby, not even a tree that could be climbed, so he could only pull a torch to increase his sense of security.

When I was anxious, I could already see the fluorescence of the green forest around me, flickering like a ghost fire, not to mention more than a dozen wolves, everyone was even more nervous, everyone knew in their hearts that there were only Cao Song and Cao Song who were young and strong here, and it was absolutely powerless to deal with so many wolves.

The more and more wolves gathered seemed to add weight to the scale, a little bit of everyone's mood became heavier and heavier, Yu Zhou swayed back and forth with a torch in his hand, holding Yue Yue in one hand, and the women of several families were also holding wooden sticks, leaving only the old man to take care of the baby doll, for fear that the child's cry would break the temporary tranquility and let the wolves attack in advance.

After a while, the galloping and low-roaring wolves finally quieted down, but everyone became more nervous, because it meant that the wolves had gathered, and sure enough, the miserable green fluorescence began to slowly approach, and the circle shrank smaller and smaller, so that you could clearly see a few hideous faces with fangs.

Yu Zhou has heard that the beast can smell your fear, the more critical the encounter, the more you can't show cowardice, otherwise the beast that is still hesitating will not hesitate to attack, obviously everyone has not dealt with the beast, and when they see a mountain wolf approaching, they shout in unison, although they are small and old, but they wave torches and "roar!" "Hah!" The sound is extraordinary.

The whole atmosphere was tense and weird, just like the sacrifice of the primitive tribe to the god of fire, waving torches and dancing, shouting, all the foolish and ridiculous behaviors that would seem to be foolish and ridiculous in later generations, but they were solemn and solemn, and the people in it could never laugh.

The wolves obviously just want to have a full meal, and they are not ready to take advantage of the fire, seeing that it is difficult to find a flaw for a while, the frequency of running around everyone slowly decreases, with a few long whines from nowhere, only a few are still swimming and probing, most of the wolves leaned over and bared their teeth while confronting everyone while resting, and even squatted on the spot.

This can be bitter for everyone, this is the same as besieging a city, I don't know when and where the other party will attack, but I don't dare to relax my vigilance for a moment, a short time is acceptable, after a long time, it is inevitable to be tired and slack, sure enough, it didn't take long for a few old people to panting, and the momentum was naturally weaker, and then a few mountain wolves who had just sat down roared restlessly.

There was even a wolf that flew towards the crowd with its bloody mouth open, and was whipped in the face by Ji Bu with a stick, and retreated with a whining and mourning, and the wolves resettled some, but the wooden stick in Ji Bu's hand was also broken, and the cobbler over there saw it in his eyes and roared: "Silly boy, this thing has a copper head and iron bones, and his waist is his weakness." ”

Ji Bu didn't look back: "When I reach my waist, it will already gnaw on my face!" ”

Yu Zhou tugged on Ji Bu's sleeve and handed over the short knife that Han Laohan had left for himself, the knife was shaped like a cow's ear, and it was just longer than an adult's palm, to be honest, it was not as effective as a stick, but at this time, it was good to use.

Ji Bu was not polite, and took it and sneered at it, and after a while, he might not feel that it was enjoyable, and he danced with a short stick in one hand, and for a while he was quite imposing, and confronted the wolves who had quieted down again.

Yu Zhou looked at everything coldly, thinking hard but there was no good way, and he became more and more anxious, although he was still confronting each other, the longer it dragged on, the more disadvantageous it was, although the beasts were indeed afraid of fire, but not to mention whether there was enough firewood, even the wolves on the opposite side were anxious, and hunger would also drive them to overcome the fear of fire.

The confrontation continued until the dark sky began to fade, and dawn was the beginning of a new hope and routine for humans, and the wolves became more and more agitated, and finally, after three long howls, the originally quiet wolves suddenly bowed over one by one, and a low roar rolled in their throats, which was a sign that the beast was about to attack.

"Grandpa Cao, the wolves are three packs of wolves!" The shrill children's voice was the first to pierce the silence before the storm.

The night's torment was already quite tired, Song Carpenter and Cao Leather Maker glanced at each other, nodded heavily, Old Man Cao took a deep breath, his hand fell with a knife, the old cow pulling the cart was already bleeding in the neck, and then cut the rope of the bolted cow, the old cow ran out with a sad scream, and before he could raise the speed, several mountain wolves had climbed on the back of the cow and behind the buttocks.

Lao Cao, who cut down the old cow, was even more imposing, a lone wolf who was hovering between besieging everyone and turning around to chase the cow had not yet made a choice, Lao Cao rushed up, picked up the bloody firewood knife and pumped it on the wolf's face, only to hear a whining and screaming, everyone who listened could feel the pain, Yu Zhou even saw that the wolf's teeth were pulled out.

Lao Cao was even more powerful, turned the firewood knife, smashed it on the wolf's waist and back, and saw the wolf fall to the ground all of a sudden, the two hind legs could no longer support the waist and abdomen, and the voice was mournful, Lao Cao kicked the wolf into the distance, stared at the wolves, the old tears were horizontal, and the hiss roared......

Maybe it was Lao Cao's kind of momentum that came again to live and die, or maybe it was because he had eaten the sweetness of an old cow, most of the wolves dragged the old cow and bit it, only a few of them were sporadically leaned down and slowly retreated, Song Carpenter suddenly leaned over and wanted to pounce, and those few even turned around and ran.

Although the wolf retreated temporarily, no one could smile, and they all looked at the howling Cao Laohan as if he was mourning, looking at the heavy faces around him, Yu Zhou felt uncomfortable, Cao Laohan's roar was regretful and desperate, as if the flesh in his heart had been ripped away. He couldn't understand the feelings between the people and the cow at this time, but he could imagine the meaning of a cow to the people's families.

It's like a driver in later generations who borrowed millions to buy a truck to run transportation, and was robbed with the car and goods just after departure, his son's tuition fees, his mother's medicine expenses, the expectations of relatives and friends, and the pressure of the bank are enough to make an iron-like man want to cry without tears, which is a kind of despair that can't see tomorrow.

Maybe it was uncomfortable to watch, Ji Bu picked up the short knife and was about to attack the lone wolf whose hind legs were dragged on the ground like a sack, but was pulled by Song Carpenter: "I can't help it, you Cao Boquan used the back of the knife, and he didn't see blood in his hands, once he saw blood, how to arouse the ferocity and revenge of the mountain wolf." ”

Ji Bu sighed hatefully, and left the knife on the ground, and a group of men, women, and children watched the beasts around them with grief and indignation, and all that was left was the chewing of the wolves and the wail of the wounded wolf.
