Chapter Twenty-Three: The Wolves Lead the Way

Because of the shouting when I rushed towards Jiang Li just now, the other three people scattered to find him.

Yan Qiu was the first to arrive, panting and asking, "Jiang Li found it?" What happened to the two of you? How do I hear the screams? ”

I patted the soil on my body and replied to Yan Qiu: "It's nothing, Jiang Li took a branch and tripped me up." ”

As I explained, Fat Brother and Su Rina also arrived.

The fat brother saw that the branches carried by Jiang Li were all half-red and half-green fruits, so he took a bite of them and rubbed them on his body, and said while chewing, "Where did you pick the wild fruits?" Yes, it's sweet. What about wolves? ”

I hurriedly knocked off the fruit in the fat brother's hand and said to the fat brother, "You eat indiscriminately again, and I don't know if it's poisonous." ”

Because there was a precedent of poisoning before, the fat brother was not upset by my behavior, but like a child who made a mistake, he was embarrassed to wipe his hands stained with juice.

Jiang Li said first: "It's okay, it's okay, eat, I've eaten both, it's not poisonous." ”

When the fat brother heard this, he happily picked a bigger one and began to gnaw on it.

Then Jiang Li asked again: "You all said that there are wolves, have you seen wolves?" Where? ”

Su Rina smiled and said, "You really slept to death, the wolves came to visit last night, you don't know anything about it?" ”

Jiang Li immediately showed a surprised expression and said to us, "What? Are there really wolves? Why don't you call me such an interesting thing? ”

Su Rina said again: "Why didn't you scream, you didn't wake up after calling for a long time." ”

Jiang Li shook Su Rina's arm and asked her what happened later? How did we deal with the wolves?

Su Rina continued: "Use Zhanxiao's Demon Blade, or you reminded us when you were half asleep, I didn't expect you to remember, are you talking in a dream?" ”

After eating a wild fruit, the fat brother asked the same question as me: "Where did you get the fruit of this branch?" Hurry up and take us there, we will collect more as a food reserve. ”

Jiang Li also gave the same answer: "The one I picked up, it's over there." As he spoke, Jiang Li pointed in the direction behind him.

This is a bit strange, to say that Jiang Li found the fruit tree and broke it off the tree, I can understand it, but she just said that she picked it up, so it is a bit of a suspicion of lying. I've heard of picking up anything, but I've never heard of picking fruit branches.

I checked again and asked, "Did you really pick it up?" Are you afraid that we will criticize you for running too far? Honestly, where did it come from? ”

Jiang Li's neck tilted, and he said unhappily: "I said that I picked it up, I picked it up, and I got you fruit to eat, and you still said me?" What's there to lie about? ”

I inquired in detail about Jiang Li's picking process.

She said that when she woke up in the morning, she saw that we were all sleeping, and she wanted to look around, because it was foggy, and she couldn't see too far, so she walked away, and circled around our campsite, and as she did not want to walk, she saw a branch with a lot of fruit on it, and she ate two of them, and she was ready to carry them back for us to taste.

When talking about meeting me, I interrupted Jiang Li, because I was afraid that my embarrassment would become a laughing stock, and because I already knew what happened later.

After interrupting Jiang Li, I asked her to take us to the place where she was picking up fruits, and everyone followed Jiang Li and walked back there.

There was nothing in the place where Jiang Li picked up the fruit, and like other places, it was all broken bones left over from the ancient battlefield, but there were a lot of fruit tree leaves scattered on the ground, which fully proved that Jiang Li was not lying, and it was indeed the fruit tree branch that he picked up here.

It's very strange, could it be that someone picked the fruit and put it here and went on to do something else? Maybe Jiang Rou also came here? For this reason, we waited in the same place for a long time, but there was still no one.

Because we were afraid of losing the equipment in the camp, we didn't dare to stay longer, so we could only find some references and walk back to the camp, where our sleeping bags and backpacks were lying untouched.

When I returned to the camping site, I looked back at the direction we walked back, and was surprised to find that according to the distance, the location where Jiang Li picked up the fruit tree was the same place where the wolves stayed last night.

I shared my findings with the others: "Look, the place where Jiang Li picked up the fruit is not the same place where the wolves stayed last night? Could it be that this fruit tree was fallen by wolves? ”

Jiang Li pulled off the fruit and divided it into everyone's backpacks, and said, "Do you have any common sense?" Wolves are carnivores, not omnivores, so do wolves collect fruit and kick them as balls? ”

While eating the fruit, the fat brother helped Jiang Li, his mouth was full of food, and he said inarticulately: "Yes, yes, what is the wolf doing with the fruit?" It is estimated that it is a coincidence. ”

Speaking of this, the fat brother's attitude immediately took a big turn, swallowed the unchewed wild fruit in his mouth hard, pointed to the fork and said, "It was left by the wolf, you see." ”

We looked in the direction of the fat brother's finger, and it was really that the branch was close to the break, full of bite marks, biting the bark into a mess.

Yan Qiu thought and said, "Could it really be a fruit tree that the wolves got from?" Looking at the way this dog gnaws, eighty percent is right. ”

Did the wolves bite off the fruit trees to eat the fruit? Could it be that these wolves are vegetarian wolves? Didn't they attack us last night because they quit meat? The more I thought about it, the more ridiculous I felt, how could I suddenly have such a strange idea when my brain was not bright? But there's no other explanation.

I tentatively expressed my thoughts, but I didn't dare to be too direct, for fear of attracting ridicule: "You said that these wolves didn't eat us yesterday, is it because of special eating habits?" ”

The fat brother glared and asked, "You mean that these wolves are vegetarians, so they are not interested in us?" ”

I nodded, expecting to be met with a head-on attack from everyone who came, but I didn't expect the others to agree.

The fat guy also patted me on the back and said, "When did you become smarter?" Indeed, these wolves must be vegetarians, otherwise why wouldn't they eat when they see us? ”

This time it was finally my turn to fight back, and I stood up and pointed at everyone and said, "You fools, do you believe this?" If a wolf doesn't eat meat, is it still called a wolf? That's the nature of carnivores, and it won't change even when you die. ”

Hearing me say this, everyone seemed to hold back for a long time, and they all burst out laughing.

Yan Qiu smiled very happily, and finally gasped and said, "So you're not stupid?" I thought you were stupid enough to think that wolves would eat the fruit. He continued to laugh.

I was the only one standing there stupidly, it turned out that they had already colluded to deliberately hold back my jokes.

I sat back down and asked, "Then why do you say that?" Why didn't the wolves eat us and leave the fruit? ”

This stopped everyone, and no one could explain the question.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Li said, "Do you think this is possible?" Did the wolves show us friendship? Not only did they not eat us, but they also left us food. ”

Wolves are animals with relatively high IQs, and it is not impossible to make such a move, but no matter how you think about it, why would the wolf throw an olive branch to us? If this group of wolves really bribed us with food for some purpose, then this group of wolves is at least at the level of wolf spirits, and they are more human than dogs.

Just as he was thinking of this, a wolf's howl suddenly came from afar.

This long chirp startled all of us.

The fat brother glared and asked, "Does this group of wolves know that we are discussing them?" Is this in response to us? ”

This is a bit of an exaggeration, if the wolves do have a purpose, then monitoring and tracking should be possible, responding to our conversations from a distance, and not even people can do it without installing bugs.

While we were talking, the three girls had already put all the places where we had slept and put everything back into our backpacks.

Jiang Li picked up his bag and said, "Let's go, since the wolves have a purpose, let's go and see what the purpose is." ”

In this case, it has to be like this, the wolves that live here, if they are really friendly to us, then they should be the best clue for us to leave along the way, this time I did not stop it, maybe find an opportunity to show kindness to the wolves, I can get their help.

We all walked into the fog in the direction from which the wolf howl came.

After walking in one direction for about three kilometers, I heard a wolf howling on the way, but I didn't see a wolf.

I judged that the wolves had been in front of us, at a certain distance from us, guiding us with their howls, and we did not see them because of the fog.

As we walked, we found that there was already a mountain wall in front of us, and according to the surrounding environment, it was definitely not the snow-capped mountain we came down from. When we walked to the side of the mountain, a huge stone gate appeared in front of us.
