The flames made the wolves agitate even more, and the leader of the gray wolves was also pacing back and forth, showing its terrifying fangs to us.

As the minutes ticked by, the flames of the fire still did not diminish as much as the wolf's corpse seemed to burn much better than the dry wood.

The hungry wolf I shot to death was dragged back by two hungry wolves and devoured in front of our kind, only to be gnawed clean in an instant.

"Don't let your guard down, as long as you hold on until dawn, everyone will be safe."

I shouted to everyone.

I looked at the time on my phone, it was already two o'clock in the morning, and the sky next door was early, almost an hour later, and the sky would be bright.

And wolves are nocturnal animals, especially in the scorching heat of the Gobi, as soon as the sky dawns and the temperature rises, all the wolves will disperse.

With the corpse of a hungry wolf on fire, it shouldn't be a problem for the fire behind me to hold on for another hour or two, and thinking about this, I can't help but feel a little relieved.

Slowly, the sky was already flushed with a trace of blue and white, and the pitch-black four fields were not so dark.

As the sky grew brighter, the whole wolf pack was already in turmoil, and hundreds of hungry wolves howled one after another.

The howls of hundreds of hungry wolves seemed to be asking the gray wolf leader for battle.

The gray wolf leader paced back and forth more frequently, and it was clear that it had run out of patience completely.

"Ah, boy, capture the thief and capture the king first, and shoot the big bad wolf to death first."

I turned my head sharply and saw the old man standing on my left looking at me with a sleepy yawn.

This is obviously a look of just waking up, at that time I was vomiting a fragrance in my heart, and my heart said that this old man actually fell asleep standing up, which is really strange.

I also understand this allusion, but I didn't think of it for a while, the old guy knows why you didn't say it earlier, do you have to wait until you wake up!

I whispered a mental greeting to the old man's family, and then raised my crossbow horizontally and aimed it at the gray wolf leader.

Sou!

Burst!

My arrow was enough to kill the gray wolf leader on the spot, but I never thought that it seemed to sense the danger and dodged it.

Although he dodged the fatal arrow, he still couldn't dodge it, and was blinded by a crossbow arrow.

Whew......!

The gray wolf leader let out a terrible howl, and almost at the same time, hundreds of hungry wolves poured out like a tide as if they had heard the final attack horn.

"I'm grass, fat man, I'll fight with you!"

In the face of the roaring wolves, Wu Fatzi trembled and trembled, obviously he was already scared to death, but now there was nowhere to escape. The wolves were not far away from us, and now they are in front of us in the blink of an eye.

We were all glaring at the stool, ready for the next second of fighting.

But at this critical moment, I didn't know where a gunshot rang out in the air.

With the sound of this gunshot, the wolves that had already pounced in front of us turned around and fled in all directions like frightened birds.

All of a sudden, even the shadow of the wolf was gone.

Although the wolves retreated violently, we did not let our guard down at all, because we had no idea who had fired the shot, whether it was friend or foe.

About half a minute later, several tall figures appeared in front of us, and on the back of one of them suddenly rode a woman with an old-fashioned shotgun and a leather sunhat.

The woman looked to be in her early thirties, with slightly rough skin, which was caused by the wind and sand of the Gobi Desert, but she was quite beautiful.

The woman rode up to us on a camel, pointed her shotgun directly at us, and asked with a wary face, "Who are you and why are you here?" ”

"Uh...... Hello this sister, thank you for the rescue just now, we are here to travel, originally wanted to cross the Gobi to go to Mofen Village, because there is a distant relative of mine, I want to go to see him by the way, but I never thought that our car broke down on the way, we chose to walk in desperation, and I never thought that we met the wolves, thanks to the sister you just shot, thank you really for that! I hurriedly spoke.

"Nonsense, what is there to travel in this Gobi, and besides, how can you have knives and arrows in your hands, you can't be poachers!"

"This sister, you really misunderstood, you look at our old and young, where do we look like poachers, we are really here to visit relatives."

Just as I was trying to explain, there was a noise in the tent next to me.

The woman hurriedly and vigilantly pointed her gun in the direction of the tent and shouted, "Who is inside, come out for me, or I will shoot!" ”

"Ah...... Don't shoot, don't shoot! ”

The tent was soon opened, and Liu Tingting walked out of it tremblingly.

Seeing Liu Tingting come out of the tent, the woman looked at her in shock, and then put down the shotgun in her hand.

"Okay, just trust you for the time being, I know how to go to Mofen Village, I'll take you there, get on the camel!"

In this way, the five of us mounted our camels and headed towards Mofen Village under the guidance of this woman.

I don't know if it's the love of the sky, not to mention avoiding a fight with a hungry wolf, I even met such a kind woman as a guide.

Riding on the camel, the five of us finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After a brief conversation, this woman riding a camel is called Kestrel and is a native of the Dunhuang Desert, and her family lives in the desert village we are looking for, and her father is the village chief of the desert tomb village.

As soon as I heard that this woman named Kestrel was from Mofen Village, I pretended to be looking for relatives and said the name of the Shaanxi man.

When the kestrel heard the name, she said she didn't know her, but when I told her that her wife was sick, the kestrel told me that the people in the village asked him to be called Hanzi, which means honest man.

Hanzi, man, I don't care what his name is, I only care if he has returned to Mofen Village now.

Kestrel told me that Hanko had come back with his wife a week earlier, but the day after he returned, Hanko's wife had died of illness.

Now he is left alone, hugging his head and crying at home every day, and drinking heavily.

Kestrel said again, but just two days ago, more than a dozen people came to the village, saying that it was a geological expedition team, and they found Hanzi and asked him to take them to the grave outside the village to study what geology, and the specific situation Kestrel didn't understand very well, but she could go back and ask her father, because her father was the village head, so he accompanied those people throughout the whole process.

Geological expedition team?

What is there to study in this yellow sand everywhere?

I was skeptical, thinking that these people were not as simple as Kestrel said.

However, suspicion is suspicion, and the specific situation can only be known when you get to the place.

In order to have a good relationship with the kestrels, we also reported our names one by one.

Wu Fatzi seems to have a little meaning for kestrels, and if he has something to do, he asks some sensitive topics, such as whether he has a partner, whether he is married or not.

Kestrel didn't take Fat Wu seriously at all, but her eyes always looked at the unsmiling dog from time to time, and there was clearly a slight ripple in her eyes.

I also wanted Kestrel to reveal the dog's situation, but I didn't expect her to mind at all.

I was very emotional about this, I didn't expect that a person like a dog would be liked by that woman, which is really rare.

But the age difference is a bit much, the dog is about the same age as mine, I don't know how old it is, at most it is in his early twenties, the same as Liu Tingting.

And that kestrel can be seen at a glance that it is in its thirties, this old cow gnaws tender grass, is it really good?

Although the camel is slow, it is also a means of transportation, and it takes about a whole day to pass, and when it is close to dusk, we finally arrive at the entrance of Mofen Village.
