Chapter 7: The Vigil

After eating and drinking enough, simply clean up and prepare to start the vigil.

Since after this battle, my physical strength is considered to be the least consumed, so of course I will guard the first shift.

When everyone returned to the tent, the mountain forest, which had been a little noisy, suddenly fell silent.

It only took a few minutes for the tent to hear snoring, and I smiled, it seemed that everyone was really tired after a long journey and a day of non-stop travel here.

I let out a long sigh of relief, and I actually heard my own breathing in the silence of the night.

The firewood in the fire crackled twice, and I grabbed the short knife at my waist.

A thought crossed my mind, I wanted to sneak up and kill the black bear.

But in a flash, I gave up on the idea.

I haven't been impulsive enough to suppress the ** in my heart all year round, which makes me have good self-control.

Judging from his reaction when the strange cat attacked the black bear just now, the success rate of my sneak attack on him is estimated to be less than 10%, which still means that he is injured.

Moreover, this expedition has only just begun, and I think his combat power will help me, at least I can't kill him until I find the gold leaf box.

I sighed heavily, life is really helpless sometimes.

At that moment, I suddenly noticed that there seemed to be some rustling sounds around me.

I was immediately on guard, picked up the flashlight from the ground, and shone it in that direction.

Four pairs of shining eyes were looking at me with some vigilance.

It's those weird cats, but I didn't expect them to be gone yet, and they are still playing with our ideas.

I just don't know if I am afraid of our combat strength or the fire in front of me, they only look at me quietly in the bushes in the distance, as if waiting for the right moment.

But as it stands, I didn't seem to be in any danger, so I withdrew my flashlight.

But at this moment, I seemed to feel a colder gaze.

I shone the flashlight back in the other direction, and there seemed to be something lurking there, and I got up and looked at it carefully.

I almost screamed at the sight of it, it was a wolf.

There are wolves in this place?

In this kind of place, wolves are not wanted to be met by anyone, they are cunning enough, fierce, and natural hunters.

At this time, it was lying on the ground, and when it saw me shining with a flashlight, it glanced at me indifferently, and that gaze was even worse than that of a black bear, and it made people's hearts chill.

It's a lone wolf.

But looking at it, it didn't seem to be the target of me, I followed its line of sight, and its gaze extended to the strange cats.

It seems that it is on a hunt, a lonely hunt.

But it seems to me that there is only one wolf, and on the other side are four strange cats, not to mention the support hidden in the depths of the jungle.

The wolf was either crazy with hunger, or it really didn't do anything better.

Alas, isn't it just a bite to eat?

I got up and picked up the corpse of a strange cat.

I didn't expect this strange cat, which is less than a meter long, to be weird and heavy in my hand.

I took a few steps forward, and the lone wolf looked at me with some wariness, so I stopped, grabbed the tail of the strange cat's carcass, and threw it right in front of the lone wolf.

I said, "You've wasted that effort, you're going to die there, don't you just want to eat meat?" This is for you, we can't finish it anyway, but don't blame me for not reminding you, this meat is sour. ”

The lone wolf sniffed at the corpse of the strange cat on the ground and gave me a cold look.

He didn't even touch the corpse, but still stared at the four strange cats in front of him.

Seeing that this guy was so faceless, I couldn't help scolding: "You brute, you really don't know good people's hearts, I don't want to watch you die, you don't have any IQ." ”

Then I smiled awkwardly, it's really boring, why fight with a wolf, it seems that this night is really too quiet.

Who knew that as soon as I sat back in front of the fire, the lone wolf actually rushed towards the four strange cats.

The attention of the four strange cats was all on me at this time, and I didn't notice that a wolf was attacking, and by the time those strange cats reacted, the lone wolf had already bitten on the neck of a strange cat.

Before the other three monster cats could react from the commotion, the lone wolf had already shook his head vigorously and bit off the neck of the strange cat.

Everything happened only between lightning and flint, and in the face of the jungle killer who was nearly twice his size, the strange cat didn't have time to make any resistance, and he died.

After killing the strange cat, the lone wolf put the corpse aside, and then bared his teeth and stared fiercely at the other three strange cats

Take a step forward.

I was a little shocked, what the is this okay? This is...... You surrounded the three of them yourself?

Strange to say, the three strange cats drooped their ears and began to slowly retreat, as if to show submission.

After retreating to a certain distance, the three strange cats suddenly turned around and ran.

It was only after the three strange cats had run away that the lone wolf picked up the corpse on the ground again.

Instead of eating on the spot, it looked back at me haughtily and plunged into the darkness with its prey in its mouth.

In that moment, I ...... How do I feel despised by myself......

I shook my head and smiled bitterly, what kind of anger do you have with a wolf...... The animals in here can't be fucking sperm.

"The fire is almost extinguished."

A nice female voice came, and I threw a few branches into the burning fire, and without looking back, I said, "Are you awake?" Why don't you sleep more? ”

Weiyang walked up to me and said, "You woke up just now when you were looking at that lone wolf. ”

It turned out that Weiyang had been secretly protecting me just now, and when I thought of this, I couldn't help but feel warm in my heart.

"Thank you."

After thinking about it for a long time, I seemed to be able to say only one sentence.

It's so cowardly.

"There is murder in the eyes of the black bear you look at today."

My body stiffened, but I didn't expect Weiyang to speak amazingly.

I subconsciously wanted to divert the topic, but I didn't want to lie to her, so I just nodded my head.

There was silence on both sides, branches crackling in the fire.

After a long time, Weiyang said, "If you can't do it yourself, I can help you." ”

"This is also part of your mission?"

Weiyang shook his head, clasped his hands on his knees, buried his chin between his hands, and said in a somewhat weak voice: "No, I just thought, what you want to do, I will do it for you." ”

I was shaken, my heart was beating wildly, and a surge of happiness suddenly filled my chest.

I, a straight man, didn't know what to say for a while, his lips moved and moved, and finally he asked: "That...... The temperature difference is a bit big...... Are you cold......"

Weiyang still clasped his hands on his knees and nodded silently.

I hurriedly took off my sweaty coat and draped it over Weiyang.

Weiyang tugged at the sturdy coat, which seemed to be a little warmer.
