Chapter 15: The Wolves Attack
() Dahei and Erhei were already lying on the ground at this time, dying. After all, there is still a certain gap between ordinary domestic dogs and wolves that have been killed for a long time. Of course, the two wolves were also not lightly injured, and one of them had a hideous wound about a foot long on his left shoulder. As a shepherd dog, Big Black and Second Black are not good to look at there.
The two wolves seemed to be angry with them, and after subduing Dahei and Erhei, they were not in a hurry to end their lives, but grabbed a sheep in front of them with great interest and began to chew on it.
Dahei and Erhei's eyes turned red, but unfortunately the wounds and pain in their hearts had made them unable to stand up again, and they could only watch the wolves scourge the sheep under their care.
When people arrived, the bloody scene directly made some people who were still surging just now scared again. After all, there is a gap between imagination and reality, and after seeing it with real eyes, this extremely impactful scene made these farmers who had been honestly digging the soil and eating the ground all their lives feel a chill in their hearts.
"Big black, second black!" looked at his dog and was already a breath away from death. Lao Li's eyes turned red, he squeezed out of the crowd, picked up his sickle and rushed over. Da Hei and Er Hei were raised by him since he was a child, and after so many years, it would definitely be a lie to say that he had no feelings.
The two wolves, who were enjoying the warm blood rolling in their throats, raised their heads alertly when they heard the human voice, but did not immediately flee, as if they thought that there was nothing to fear about people.
Because the people on the grassland worship the wolf as a totem beast, they often prefer to avoid them and try not to conflict with them, which makes the steppe wolf subconsciously lose its fear of people.
Wu Sanyi grabbed the red-eyed Lao Li and stood at the front of the people. He waved his hand, and the otherwise noisy crowd quieted down. He glanced up at Xue Feng, who was ten zhang away behind the two wolves, and nodded.
It turned out that Xue Feng had already arrived and blocked the wolf's retreat. He was also carrying two children in his hands, and as the only two children in the village who were allowed to participate in the drill, the two of them naturally ran in front of the people who rushed to hear the news. I wanted to let the feat of them drive away the wolf king that day be repeated, but unfortunately Xue Feng caught up with one by one and picked it up, and then quietly sneaked to the direction of the wolf's retreat with him.
Xue Feng and Wu Sanxin felt something, and they already knew each other's thoughts with a single look. Today's opportunity is very rare, they just want to prove in front of everyone that the steppe wolf is not as strong as it is rumored. After all, it is only after people have experienced something first-hand that they can be calm when they face such things again.
"Guys, are you scared? Do you want to know how powerful they are? Lao Li, do you feel sorry for those two dogs? Do you want to avenge them? Okay, today I will kill these two beasts with you in front of everyone, everyone can see clearly!" After Wu San finished speaking, he let go of Lao Li's hand, picked up the hoe in the hand of a person next to him, and killed the two wolves.
The two wolves saw an old human man rushing towards them, and a trace of contempt flashed in their eyes. After all, even the mighty shepherd dog is no match for them, let alone a human being, and yet it is this contempt that makes them forget the purpose of this trip, and forget the orders that the wolf king has given them.
I saw that the injured wolf, as soon as his body was lowered, his four paws suddenly landed on the ground, and he pounced on Wu San, after all, in its consciousness, it still thought that this old man was better to deal with than the strong one next to him.
Its speed slowly increased with its pace, and when it was still three feet away from Wu San, it suddenly jumped up, stretched out its two sharp claws and grabbed Wu San.
"Village chief!" someone in the crowd cried out, and some even covered their eyes with their hands, and they really didn't dare to look back.
Just when the wolf's claws were about to grab Wu San, Wu San suddenly lowered his body, and the hoe in his hand was raised upward. I saw the wolf's body fly over the scalp, and the front end of the hoe was pressed against the wolf's lower abdomen.
"Woo......" The injured gray wolf felt a pain in his abdomen, and suddenly lost his balance and fell to the ground hard.
At that moment, a scythe flew out of the crowd, and the tip of the knife was impartially pierced into the wolf's left eye.
"Whew......" A strong pain came, and the injured gray wolf began to roll on the ground in pain.
It turned out that when Wu Sanyi knocked the gray wolf to the ground with a hoe, Chen Si unconsciously threw the sickle in his hand at the gray wolf. There were bursts of applause from the crowd, Chen Si came back to his senses, and hurriedly said: "Old and young masters, let's kill this beast together!"
After Chen Si's instigation, the already somewhat bold people hurriedly picked up the guy in their hands and threw it at the gray wolf, and the poor gray wolf was also dying like a big black after being buried with various tools. At this time, the bold people ran over one after another, and together with those who were trembling with their hands and feet, they took tools and beckoned to the gray wolf on the ground, as if to vent all the annoyance that had been held in their hearts these days because of this terrible news.
The more they fought, the more they killed, the redder they became, and by the time the noise had slowly passed, the poor gray wolf had almost chopped people into a puddle of mud. People seemed to be unsatisfied, and they turned their heads to look at the other gray wolf who had been frightened by the scene at this moment.
The gray wolf's fear at this time was actually no less than that of a human, because when it was full of the expectation that its companion would easily bite off the head of the human on the other side, what happened next had already deeply touched its strong beating wolf heart. Isn't it that humans are afraid of wolves? Why are people here different from humans who run away when they see wolves on the grassland?
The gray wolf is not a completely unthinking beast, and after seeing his companion being ravaged into mud by humans, he hurriedly turns around and runs away.
It looked up at the road, and saw an old man and two children standing ten feet in front of him, which was already a smooth road compared to the group of fierce gods and evil spirits behind.
The gray wolf ran with all his might, and his mouth was full of fangs, and he only wanted to scare off the three people in front of him with his fierce image, so that he could take the opportunity to escape. Unfortunately, this time, it miscalculated like its companions, and in front of it, it thought that none of the three people who were weak were actually weak.
Seeing a flash of golden light, the gray wolf felt as if it was flying, but when it looked down, it suddenly found that its body had left its head and ran alone, but unfortunately it fell down after running a few steps, and then, its vision slowly blurred......
After this incident, the old and young masters of Tumiao Village seemed to have become emboldened overnight, and the women and children suddenly discovered that the men who had been thinking about how to escape with their families a few days ago seemed to be fine, as if the news had been proven to be false.
But the time to come is always coming. Two days later, at dusk, the wolf's horn could be heard in the mountains in the distance!
Da Hei and Er Hei were lying in the courtyard of Lao Li's house and heard the sound of wolves, and they all struggled to stand up, but unfortunately they were too injured last time, although they wanted to get up, but they had to lie back on the ground again and again.
In accordance with the village chief's orders, all families went home early, fastened their doors, and fastened their windows. The men also looked nervous and went to the small square of Tumiao Village to gather.
It turned out that after discussing with Wu San, Xue Feng decided to hang the bodies of the two dead wolves on the two trees in that grove. They expected that when the wolf king saw that the scout had not returned for a long time, he would definitely find the woods in search of the smell. And after Xue Feng's secret observation for two days, he finally saw the wolf king who came looking for the smell this morning.
The wolf king saw his men die here, and his angry roar resounded throughout the valley. However, the wolves were accustomed to fighting at night, and after staying for a while, the wolf king went back into the woods to summon the wolves to take revenge on humans at night......
"Chen Si, you take ten people to guard this earthen temple, once you find that there are wolves running into the village, immediately light up cow dung, and we will immediately return to help. Wu San said that he handed over the prepared dried cow dung to Chen Si.
On weekdays, when the army marches and fights, people rely on the wolf smoke produced after the wolf dung is burned to inform the enemy, but where to find wolf dung in this Tumiao village, I have to find some dry cow dung for communication, but fortunately, after the cow dung is fully dehydrated, the burning smoke column is also black and thick, even at night, as long as the eyesight is good enough, you can see the same.
"Village chief, I, Chen Si, am not greedy for life and afraid of death, I also want to go with everyone to meet those brutes!" Chen Si said dissatisfiedly.
"Chen Si, wolves are cunning, we are afraid that everyone is gone, what if they break into the village. You are clever and adaptable, and the old and young of this Tumiao Village will be handed over to you. Xue Feng said with a stern expression.
"Doom...... Since Xue Daxia said so, then good, as long as I, Chen Si, still have a breath, I will definitely keep our Tumiao Village. Chen Si knew that this was not the time to be brave, so he stopped talking.
"Mr. Xue, there are less than fifty people left, and you and I will each lead a team. In case the wolves divide into two ways, the first team in front will resist the wolves, and the team in the back will rush back to the village as fast as possible, what do you think?"
"Well, just do as the village chief said, and I'll take my two apprentices to take the lead. Village Chief Wu, you will lead another team behind us, and when the time comes, depending on the situation, you can choose to pick us up or help the village. Xue Feng nodded.
"Okay, that's it. Although Wu San is the village head, he knows that this hero named Xue Feng has strong martial arts and rich experience in facing the enemy, so he leads everyone to take the lead, and he is always much stronger than himself.
"Old and young masters of Tumiao Village, our hometown, whether our wives and children can survive today's catastrophe depends on your expressions, remember, there are only men standing and dying in our Tumiao Village, and there are no cowards who flee on their stomachs!" Wu San turned around and glanced at the small village chief he had lived in for decades, and there was an indescribable nostalgia in his eyes.
"Kill! Only die by standing, not live by kneeling!" People seem to have been infected by the words of the village chief, and they also know that a catastrophe is coming, and if they do not resist, they can only wait for death.
When people are in danger, they will always have a strong instinct stimulated by the idea of survival. One by one, the eyes of the people were solemn, and they all looked back at the small village behind them where their families lived.
"Let's go!" Wu San shouted, raised his torch and walked up the mountain first.
