Chapter 95: Bathing in Snow

Although the wolf is a fierce animal that is not afraid of death, there are exceptions to everything.

The forest is big and there are all kinds of birds, and it is not uncommon for a few timid members of the wolf pack to grow.

And these grass wolves dare not hunt because they are afraid of danger, so they will be arranged by the wolf king to become the sentinel of the wolf pack, responsible for the vigilance work in the territory, and do not participate in the battle, so their status is very low, and the food they can share is also the least.

Wolf cubs are the key protection objects of the whole wolf pack, so when the wolves go out to hunt, those old she-wolves and nannies who have experience in taking care of young children stay in the nest, waiting for the wolf king to return from hunting.

Aging male wolves usually don't end well, and most of them have a lot of dark injuries on their bodies due to their youthful battles.

Such wolves, as well as underdeveloped waste wolves, are often used as bait to reserve food if there is not enough food when the cold comes.

In order to avoid their own tragic fate, many wolves will choose to leave the team on their own, die of old age or starvation alone outside the pack, and become a vulture's dinner.

The wolf king's wife is the highest-ranking she-wolf in the entire wolf pack, and at the same time the strongest ability, and the wolf queen also has the right to lead the team when the team is divided into groups.

At the moment, squatting at the back of the canyon is the team led by the wolf queen.

The striker on the wolf king's side smelled the mixed smell under the snow layer of the canyon in front of them, in addition to the smell of the prey they had been chasing for a long time, there were other strange and pungent smells mixed with the aroma of frozen meat.

They vaguely felt that the smell was very similar to the smell of the terrible weapons in the hands of the humans who had hunted the members of the tribe, but it seemed to be a little different from it, and they could only judge that it was a sign of danger, so one of the strikers turned back to report it to the wolf king.

In a few moments, the body of a sturdy wolf with gray hair appeared in the snow, slowly walking towards the position of the striker.

The wolf was twice the size of the other wolves behind it, its body was long and strong, its muscles were strong and powerful, its green eyes radiated a cold glow in the dark night, and the ferocity under its eyes was terrifyingly thick.

This is a complete king!

The wolf king trampled his large, sharp claws on the highest stone at the bottom of the valley, and the other wolves prostrated themselves around the stone to submit to the leader on the high place.

The Wolf King also smelled the smell of dynamite, the familiar smell of hatred it had not seen for a long time.

Before its race grew to its present size, some of its charging companions were killed every year by humans with this pungent smoke weapon.

It wasn't until it grew stronger and stronger, leading the pack to gradually swallow up most of the wolves in the snowfield, that humans were afraid of the size of the wolf pack, and would spontaneously bypass the area when hunting, and since then the hunting of members has completely disappeared.

After many years, it smelled it again.

The mane on the wolf king's neck exploded like a dandelion's umbrella ball, and it spat out a long, blood-red tongue, the tip of which gently licked a piece of snow and rolled a little snow into its mouth.

As if he had smelled the fishy sweet aroma flowing in his veins, every hair on the wolf king's body was trembling with excitement, his eyes were glowing with scarlet murderous intent, his sharp fangs were bared, and the wolf's head was raised high.

The fur on the backs of the other wolves also exploded, and they felt the wolf king's strong fighting intent and stood up in front of the first thunder line.

In the cave of the cliff, Zhang Qixun's heart walked by little by little, and finally, as if sensing the surging murderous aura from afar, his eyes lit up, and he turned around and whispered to Wu Xie and them to get ready.

"They're coming!"

The fat man took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with a fierce light, "It's just in time, let this group of beasts just feel the divine power of the fat man's thunderbolt serial cannon." ”

Zhang Qixun was not optimistic, "The number of this group of wolves is likely to be larger than we thought, and there is a very intelligent wolf king, they will walk around the minefield under the command of the wolf king. ”

"What? Can't blow it up? The fat man wondered, "No, we have such a large area, even if we hold a deminer, we may not be able to completely drain it." ”

Zhang Qixun closed his eyes and completely let go of his perception, and he clearly "saw" that there were countless reddish-brown figures entrenched at both ends of the pitch-black canyon.

A long, smooth wolf howl reached everyone's ears, and it was the horn of the wolves to charge!

Immediately afterwards, the reddish-brown figure stepped into the minefield step by step under the leadership of an exceptionally large figure, and the progress on the other side was slightly slower, obviously the wolf queen was more cautious and hesitant.

Zhang Qixun clearly remembered the location where he and the fat man had planted the dark thunder, but the group of figures had advanced five or six meters without triggering a single whistle.

Sure enough, the hunch in his heart came true.

"Get ready, the wolves are already in the valley." He reminded everyone in a low voice.

The atmosphere that was originally quite relaxed suddenly became tense.

"Damn." The fat man had no doubt about what Zhang Qixun said, and scolded secretly, "Could it be that these beasts are like pheasant necks, and they have become sperm?" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a sharp whistle from the canyon, and the explosion followed in the sky.

In an instant, one of the brown-red figures seemed to be pulled around by an invisible silk thread, and it was torn apart, and the next second the blood droplets splashed into the air, it condensed into blood ice and fell.

"It's done!" Zhang Qixun shouted happily.

As long as a dark lightning bolt is triggered, all the remaining whistle bombs will be affected by the aftermath of the explosion, and no wolf in that entire area can escape.

A series of explosions resounded throughout the canyon, and the snow waves were dozens of meters high.

Frightened by the sound of thunder, the wolves began to flee in all directions in an orderly manner, and everywhere there were broken flesh and blood, wailing and corpses all over the field.

Of course, there are exceptions, in the second before one of the strikers' claws touched the dark thunder carelessly, the wolf king seemed to sense something, and quickly jumped high, with the whistle sounding, the wolf king's strong and flexible body writhed in mid-air, and jumped forward with his strength, like a divine help.

The moment he landed, the wolf king noticed that there was something wrong with the grip of his front paws, and immediately rolled on the spot, with a loud bang, the snow and dust were everywhere, spreading out like a tornado, and the pale gray figure of the wolf king was submerged in the snow raised by the explosion.

The wolf queen on the other side was more cautious at the beginning, and after hearing that something was wrong with the other wolf king, he immediately ordered his subordinates to retreat with a howl.

Even so, the wolves, frightened by the loud noise of thunder, still triggered the dark thunder in the snow due to their weak legs.

The rumbling explosion was deafening and deafening, and the entire canyon was submerged in a scorching wave of air.

The moment the bomb exploded, half of the sky turned red.

The fat man squeezed between Zhang Qixun and the two with a telescope, kept looking at the place where the explosion occurred, and laughed, "Mushroom clouds, naΓ―ve, look at them, there are several big mushroom clouds over there, and I still want to eat the fat man's meat, haha, this time those dogs are dead after all." ”

Zhang Qixun nodded, and his heart relaxed a lot, "I guess it's almost there, it's more powerful than I imagined, even if a fish slips through the net, it can't avoid the second minefield." ”

Flesh and blood creatures are no match for brutal thermal weapons.

It's just that the heat around him is too mixed, and Zhang Qixun can't be sure whether the wolf king has been blown up or not, so he still hasn't let down his vigilance.

The sound of the explosion lasted for more than forty minutes before it gradually stopped, and in the distant canyon you could still see the ignition of the wolf corpse.

Zhang Haixing looked at the firelight from the scope and searched for a while, but did not see a live mouth running in, so he put away the gun and got up to move his limbs, which were a little stiff.

Seeing that Zhang Qixun was still lying on his stomach, he wondered: "Aren't they all dead, why don't you get up yet." ”

"You go and rest first, and I'll keep an eye on it for a while." Zhang Qi searched.

Seeing this, Zhang Haixing didn't say anything, turned around and went into the cave, took out the sleeping bag from her backpack, took it and roasted it on the fire, and then found a place by the fire to wrap herself in sleep, and soon fell asleep.

The fat man drove Feng, who was frightened for a long time and was about to be scared to death, back to the cave, and urged Wu Xiaoxie to go to sleep quickly, it was already more than three o'clock in the morning, and if he didn't sleep for a while, it would be dawn.

"That's good." Wu Xie nodded, "Something to call me." ”

When they all went to rest, the fat man took out two bottles of stuffy donkeys from the ashes, walked to Zhang Qixun and sat down against the wall, stuffed a bottle into his arms, and said softly: "The ground is so cold, drink and burn to warm up." ”

The temperature of the stainless steel wine bottle felt warm through the clothes, Zhang Qixun leaned down slightly, supported the ground with one elbow, unscrewed the cap and poured a little inside, and then leaned to his mouth and took a sip, the scorching bitterness suddenly alarmed his taste buds, and his eyes were a little hot.

After swallowing it quickly, the hot wine burned all the way from his chest into his stomach, and the rich aroma of the wine gradually came out.

The fat man chuckled, "I'm in a hurry, let it dry for a while and then drink." ”

Zhang Qixun turned his head and smiled helplessly, poured a little more into the bottle cap, this time he blew it before drinking it, and drank three small caps in a row, feeling that the internal organs in the whole chest were warm.

Zhang Qixun twisted the cap of the bottle, put the wine bottle in his arms to continue to warm up, and then fell back to his previous posture, and asked the fat man softly, "Why don't you go to sleep?" ”

"The fat man slept enough before, so I'll stay with you for a while." The fat man said.

The corners of Zhang Qixun's mouth curled, and he said, "Then you go and get Zhang Haixing's gun and stare at the side." ”

The fat man had already had this intention, so he immediately went to take the M16 over, touched it lovingly, and sighed: "Good guy, really good guy, the fat man hasn't touched such a sincere guy for a long time." ”

"If you don't weigh too much, you can carry it on your back after that." Zhang Qi searched.

Before entering the mountain, it was the Zhang family who provided the gunpowder, all of which were made by their own people, and it was Zhang Qixun who provided them with guns and ammunition for the five people, and no one knew when he put the two boxes full of guns and ammunition in the room.

"Thanks, buddy." The fat man patted Zhang Qixun on the shoulder, and also lay down and pointed his sniper gun at the canyon on the other side.

The two chatted for a while, and as the minutes passed, they didn't hear any movement triggered by the thunderbolt.

The wolf queen led the surviving remnants to escape from the dangerous place, and the team on the wolf king's side suffered heavy casualties, almost lost all their combat effectiveness, and those who were still breathing were also frightened, and they did not dare to approach the canyon for half a step.

When the smoke cleared, everything seemed to be calm.

Zhang Qixun finally retracted his sense of danger staring at the minefield, and just in case, he swept around the pit cliff.

It was this sweep that his action about to get up suddenly froze, and the fat man originally thought he was going to rest, but he suddenly paused, and asked him, "What's wrong?" Is it that your legs are numb after lying on your stomach for too long? ”

Zhang Qixun suddenly made a silent gesture at him.

β€œοΌŸοΌβ€ The fat man doesn't know why.

saw Zhang Qixun stand up, leaned against the side of the wall silently, poked out the muzzle of the gun in his hand and stuck obliquely against the upper edge of the hole, and pulled the trigger with lightning speed.

After the bang, there was a muffled sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, Zhang Qixun quickly turned his head to look down, only to see a white afterimage flashing away, and then the silence returned.

The fat man was startled and hurriedly looked up, "What's wrong?" What's on it? ”

Zhang Qixun also turned his head to look at the cliff wall above, and saw a blurry cloud of blood splashed from the point where the bullet flew out of the muzzle of his gun, and the snow at the bottom of the valley below was smashed into a deep pit by the falling things, and there were also a lot of blood stains in the pit.

"What did you just hit?"

Zhang Haixing and the others were alarmed by the gunshots and came to check the situation.

"I don't know what it is, but it's not small." Zhang Qixun said with some uncertainty.

"Is it a wolf?" Wu Xie turned on the fog lamp and shone it below, but he didn't see a fresh animal carcass, so he couldn't help but be shocked, "Didn't hit?" No way, your marksmanship is so good. ”

With Muyu's marksmanship, it is a matter of minutes to kill at such a distance.

"It's not a wolf that comes down from above, and a wolf doesn't have the ability to climb an upright cliff." Zhang Qixun is very sure.

"And the speed of that thing is so fast that it was already dodging the moment I shot it, and I only saw a snow-white shadow."

"But the bullet must have grazed the thing, and the wound was bleeding, but it wasn't fatal, so it went into hiding as soon as it fell."

If it weren't a wolf, what would it be? Could it be that there are other animals eyeing them?

Feng pondered for a moment and speculated: "The whole body is snow-white, and if you can still climb on such a steep and steep mountain wall, will it be a snow leopard?" ”

"Snow leopards are faster than normal leopards, and they can run and jump directly from cliff to cliff."

"And the body structure of the feline allows it to adjust the cushioned position before it hits the ground, and it is normal to fall at such a height without falling to death."

There may be a snow leopard's nest in this canyon, and the explosion was so violent that the snow leopard is naturally timid and easily frightened and hides.
