The wolf's cry gradually became clearer and louder, and the two cellar workers also got up, and Mr. Xu said, "It's not good, the wolf is running for us." ”

But it was so dark that the clouds were overcast, and it seemed like it was going to rain, and the bare-chested cellar man prayed, "Let it rain quickly, and it is better to hail and kill the wolves." ”

"Stoned all the wolves to death, won't you be stoned to death too?" Another cellar worker said dissatisfied.

This place is located on a high platform, the sight was originally very good, only because the sky is too dark, I can't see the surrounding scenery clearly, but only by the ears, I can also hear that the wolves are gradually gathering forward, front and back, left and right, there are wolf howls, and the momentum is getting louder and louder, Zhang Xiaoliu said with some worry: "It's not good, how can it seem that the wolves of the whole mountain have run here?" There are dozens of voices to listen to. ”

"The wolf is coming for us." The hunter with the steel fork made his rounds of the ditch, which was five feet wide, but could jump over if the wolf attacked him desperately.

These people except for Jiang Yu Niang, they are all mountain people, know that the wolves are very difficult to mess with, a tiger, Jiang Yu Niang can deal with it with martial arts, but such a large group of wolves, it will be more difficult to win, as the saying goes, heroes are difficult to resist four hands, wolves rise up and attack, and these people are bound to be in trouble. And the wolf has patience, good physical strength, is good at stalking, the ghost does not disperse, and grinds to the end, often making people unable to support it.

The hunter with the steel fork said: "Everyone be ready, if the wolf rushes up, let's resist in batches, the front one is tired and can't stand it, and the back one will make up for it, or else, the wolf will be tired and eaten." ”

This is obviously a matter of experience, and everyone nods in agreement. Jiang Yuniang and Mo Xiaojie picked a lot of stones and put them at hand, ready to use them as hidden weapons, but fortunately, there was an inexhaustible amount of gravel on the mountain, and a large number of them were prepared after a while.

"Huh-" A rough wolf howl seemed to ring in the ears, several people were frightened, the two hunters one leveled the steel fork, the other pulled up the bow and arrow, and looked carefully, but his eyes widened, only to see a faint moving shadow not far away, and said with a steel fork: "This is a wolf, as soon as it comes, it means that it is about to start attacking." ”

Dayu and Ah Hu's two children also walked out of the house, standing behind the adults, holding daggers in their hands, ready to fight with everyone, Ah Hu said: "It's a pity that the big black stone lock didn't brought, otherwise, it can deal with ten wolves by itself." ”

That big mastiff is indeed fierce and incomparable, if it is here, it should be more useful than a human to deal with wild wolves.

Mr. Xu suddenly said to Ah Hu: "Child, you can blow that horn again." ”

"Yes, yes," everyone reminded them through Mr. Xu, since the horn can even be driven by tigers, is it also effective against wolves?

"Okay," Ah Hu agreed, turned around and ran back to the house, took out the horn, put it to his mouth and blew it, "Huh-"

A long cry echoed in the mountains, neither like a wolf nor a tiger, low and haughty, and more fierce than the howls of the wolves around them.

The howl of the wolves suddenly became mute.

"Blow again." The hunter said to Ah Hu.

"Whew-"

The sound of the horns, in the middle of the night seems rough and terrifying, people can't help but shiver, in the evening when the tiger is encountered, everyone is flustered, not too deep to understand, at this time in the dead of night, and then listen carefully to the sound of the horns, only feel a trembling from the bones, inexplicable fear, from the heart. And when this sound and the wolf howl sounded at the same time, it was particularly eye-catching, and the wolf howl was originally terrifying, but let the sound of this horn be compared, and it was compared at the same time, just like the sound of a phoenix pressing a hundred birds.

The wolf's howl could not be heard, but he felt that there was a lot of confusion around him, like the turning of blades of grass, and like the mountain wind blowing through the woods, but there was not a trace of wind at this time. The hunter said happily, "The wolf has retreated." ”

"Haha, that's wonderful." A cellar worker danced with his hands, "A child can really scare a wolf by bragging horns, great, we don't have to be eaten by wolves, kid, blow twice." ”

"Don't," Mr. Xu stopped, "Good things can't be abused, and if they are used indiscriminately, they won't work, don't you know if it's too much?" ”

Everyone was surprised that this horn really drove away the wolves, and Jiang Yuniang asked: "Brother Orion, the sound of the horn must be because it is like some kind of ferocious beast, which makes the wolf retreat and flee in terror. ”

The two hunters shook their heads together, and said with a steel fork: "I have never heard of it, I have been hunting for thirty years, all kinds of wild things, I have seen a lot, those who eat meat and grass, big and small, if you say fierce, in the mountains in this area, there is no more fierce than tigers, other leopards, wild boars, great apes, grizzly bears, are not as terrible as tigers, like takin or something, although the size is large, but the temperament is docile." The sound of the horn of the bull, and the cries of tigers and bears, are nothing like them, and they have never been heard before. ”

"Yes, all kinds of birds and beasts don't have such a sound." Another hunter said.

Everyone was puzzled. Mr. Xu said: "This voice sounds, not only the beast is afraid, even if we listen to it, it is also very terrifying, especially in such a night, it is more obvious, its tone is full of a rough and primitive atmosphere, which makes people listen, inexplicably from the heart of a panic, although the reason is not said, but the fear from the bottom of the heart, but it seems to be in the bones, born with fear of this voice, just want to escape, as soon as possible." ”

These words were to the point, and they were speaking everyone's thoughts, everyone nodded frequently, and Mr. Xu continued: "Moreover, you recall, this voice is extremely low, according to my experience, the bigger the animal, the lower and more majestic the voice, I have heard the call of the elephant, than the usual pipe flute and other low musical instruments, the sound is lower, but it contains power, thick and long. On the other hand, small animals such as roosters and frogs have loud and loud crows. But no matter how loud the rooster crows, it can only make people feel annoying, and they will never be afraid. ”

"Mr. Xu, you are really knowledgeable," Jiang Yuniang exclaimed.

Mo Xiaojie also said: "What Mr. Xu said makes sense, maybe the horns of Ah Hu happened to emit the low roar of a large carnivore, which has the effect of scaring away the beasts, in fact, we human beings, some of their own functions, are degraded, we can't figure out what this sound is about, and the tiger and the wolf are clear, but they won't tell us." ”

This joke made everyone laugh, stood outside the house and talked for a while, and heard that there was a quiet around, and there was nothing unusual, so they went back to the house again, lying down, Zhang Xiaoliu took over Mr. Xu's duty at night, and the rest of the people quickly fell asleep.
