Chapter 80: Night Terrors
Luo Xinghai didn't dare to let everyone stop here for too long, the bloody breath would easily attract more beasts, so he urged Luo Bin and Luo Xiong to speed up, everyone should leave this place as soon as possible.
In less than a pillar of incense, Luo Bin rolled up the two tiger skins, Luo Xiong also carried the two fattest tiger legs, and the whole team walked forward again.
The rest of the journey was very peaceful, except for the occasional small animal or two small animals and wild fowl, and there were no more birds of prey or fierce beasts.
In a blink of an eye, it was getting late, and Luo Xinghai led everyone to find an open leeward place and camp for the night.
Here is a green meadow, next to it there is an old banyan tree dozens of zhang high, the branches are luxuriant, tall and stout, the body of the tree is surrounded by many silky vines and moss, like stars blooming countless nameless small flowers, very plain beauty.
Everyone unpacked their bags, spread a thin blanket on the ground in a circular position along the banyan tree, and lit a bonfire in the middle, and Luo Bin and Luo Xiong began to roast tiger meat happily.
Luo Xinghai took some realgar powder and sprinkled it around it carefully to prevent snakes and insects from sneaking in and hurting people in the middle of the night.
Traceless leaned against the old banyan tree, lazily leaned on the tiger skin, and carried the hill off his neck, holding it in his arms and caressing it gently.
One of the two tiger skins is used as a sleeping mat for the captain, and the other is naturally only worthy of use without traces, and everyone is in the way of her status as an elder, and it is not okay to accept it.
Traceless watched everyone roast tiger meat with great interest, but had no appetite, the previous sense of horror was by no means uncaused, there must be some kind of danger lurking nearby, but she had not yet found out what it was.
She sighed, these children of the Luo family, except for Luo Xinghai, who has rich experience and vigilance, the others are all newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers, where do they know the dangers of the forest at night, do they still think it is a barbecue camping in the wild?
Shaking his head, Wuxian took out the Qiankun pot from the Ruyi bracelet, poured a cup of pure water for himself and Xiaoshan to quench their thirst, and took advantage of the unpreparedness of others to quietly take out some fruits, and let Luo Feiyun share them with everyone, while he and Xiaoshan tasted them slowly.
Today, a lot of medicinal herbs have been dug up, some of which are rhizomes of hundred-year-old moss and white balsam, which can be used by cultivators to satisfy hunger and nourish qi, and occasionally taking them is very good for the body.
She also stuffed one for Xiaoshan, washed it with clean water, and ate it with relish.
When everyone saw the golden collar on the traceless cloak, it turned out to be a living pet, and unexpectedly, they couldn't help but secretly whisper: I actually took the little pet out! Is this still going to the mining area to participate in the escort mission? What is the difference between this and going out to play in the mountains and rivers?
It's no wonder that the teammates think too much, along the way, everyone is sweaty, dusty, and some even have a lot of torn clothes, but the whole body is clean and tidy, spotless, as if they have just come out of the house to bathe and change clothes, refreshing as spring.
Luo Feiyun personally roasted a piece of tiger meat and sent it, although his handsome face was still as cold as a piece of ice, he couldn't hide the sincere care revealed in his eyes.
Traceless wanted to refuse, but was electrocuted by Luo Feiyun's gentle eyes like water, so he reluctantly took it, tasted a few bites, and quietly stuffed it to Xiaoshan to feast on.
Luo Feiyun handed over the wine jug again and persuaded Wuxian to take a sip, after all, the wind is cold in the wild and the night is cold, and a sip can drive away the cold and warm up.
Wuxian had never drunk alcohol, but he couldn't withstand Luo Feiyun's repeated persuasion, and the other team members were instigated by him, so he took a small sip of it angrily, and immediately choked and coughed, causing everyone to laugh.
Traceless's face was red, his ears were red, he glared at Luo Feiyun fiercely, and quickly took out the Qiankun pot and poured a few sips of clean water before he was comfortable.
The water and wine are so unpleasant, and these men are still addicted to alcohol, I really don't know what they think.
After everyone dined, Luo Bin and Luo Xiong were arranged to take turns to keep vigil, and the others rested on the spot.
Soon, there was a soft snoring and dreaming from the camp.
Traceless closed his eyes slightly to take a nap, but his spirit did not dare to relax at all, this road was too quiet, quiet to make people palpitate, this is definitely not a good phenomenon, tonight is only afraid that it will be an uneven night, she has to guard against it!
Sure enough, before the silent night was thick, the sound of insects suddenly stopped, and then there was a soft "rustle" sound in the ears, like the wind blowing grass, like falling leaves.
Without a trace opened his eyes in shock, looked around, and suddenly felt a chill!
Luo Xinghai was the second to discover the anomaly, he had many years of experience in the field, he also felt that something was wrong, as soon as he "purred", he got up, and quickly threw a few pieces of wood into the bonfire that was about to be extinguished, and the fire suddenly became vigorous, illuminating the surrounding area of the camp very clearly.
Luo Bin was on duty at night, and when he saw the captain suddenly get up to add firewood, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Captain, what are you doing here? Do you want to roast some tiger meat in the middle of the night?" “
Luo Xinghai glared at him, lowered his voice and said hurriedly: "Quickly call everyone up, be on alert!!"
Luo Bin was startled, nodded hurriedly, and hurriedly woke everyone up one by one.
When everyone heard that there was a situation, they were so frightened that they were completely sleepy, and everyone held swords in their hands, and their Xuan Li was all over their bodies, and they formed a circle with their backs against the bonfire, and looked around vigilantly.
Sleep in the innermost corner of the team, with the big banyan tree behind him, surrounded by everyone in the center, which is also the safest position in the team.
It can be seen that although everyone usually has a lot of complaints about her, they have not forgotten her identity as an elder at the critical moment, and they take good care of her.
The crisis is finally approaching, and everyone realizes the true face of the crisis at this moment.
I saw that in the dark and boundless night, countless bits of luminous light flickered, like green sparks embedded in the sky, gathered from all directions to the camp!
Everyone gasped, and their faces changed drastically.
Wolves! Not one or two! but the most terrifying pack of wolves!
Unknowingly, they were surrounded by wolves!
The wolf is one of the most terrifying predators in the Demon Forest, not because it is terrifying alone, but because they often move in groups, hunt in an organized and orderly manner, are alert, suspicious, good at running, have strong endurance, and often use the way of desperate pursuit to obtain prey.
Not to mention that ordinary hunters have only one way to die when they encounter wolves, even if they are the top masters of martial arts, it is difficult to escape bad luck in the face of the attack of wolves.
Therefore, when everyone saw that the sneak attack was the most terrifying wolf pack in the forest, they all looked nervous and secretly exclaimed.
Wuxian frowned, I was afraid that I would force her to make a move tonight, and it would be easy to get out by herself, but Luo Feiyun and these Luo family children would inevitably die in the wolf's belly, how could she bear it?
She first gently threw the hill on the branch behind her, and told it to act when it took the opportunity, protect herself first, help if she can, and the most important thing is that she must always pay attention to Luo Feiyun's safety, if there is anything missing, it is the only one who asks!
Xiaoshan chirped twice in protest, and finally could only reluctantly agree.
Although it has the cultivation of the fourth layer of condensation, what it is best at is only the illusion of the Yuan Shen Psychedelia, and the means of attack are limited, and in the face of the tide of wolves, there is no problem in self-preservation, but if it is allowed to go into battle to tear it up, it is still a little weak-hearted.
