Chapter 6: Wolf Attack
It was late at night, and the sky was full of stars, sprinkling a hazy starlight.
Except for the two night watchmen, the rest of the hunters basically fell asleep, and there was silence in the Broken Dragon Mountain, only the firewood burning in the fire made a "crackling" burning sound from time to time.
Cheng Kun and the others were huddled in the tent, his nose was filled with the smell of sweat of a group of rough men, and he recalled in his mind the process of his own shot today, and considered every detail repeatedly.
There is a good saying that behind every seemingly accidental success lies inevitability.
Cheng Kun has maintained the habit of reflection after the fact since the first actual battle in his life. Have you made good use of every advantage, is there any problem with your playing style, and what can you improve? Every reflection is a tempering, and it is under such self-reflection again and again that Cheng Kun continues to grow and eventually becomes a generation of national martial arts masters.
After reflection, Cheng Kun found several shortcomings, but most of them were due to his young age and lack of physical development, which made it difficult to use a lot of energy. He secretly wrote it down and decided to speed up the tempering of his body after this hunt.
In the middle of the night, Cheng Kun suddenly woke up from his sleep, only to feel the cold hairs all over his body, his heartbeat couldn't stop speeding up, and an inexplicable sense of danger rose in his heart, making him creepy, as if death quietly walked behind him and blew a cool breath on his neck.
Many people have heard in the previous life that many veterans who have been on the battlefield have a vague premonition of impending danger, which sounds very amazing, but in fact, ordinary people also have this ability, but they are not aware of it many times.
People receive countless amounts of information every day, and people's short-term memory is limited, so a large amount of information is simply forgotten in people's minds, but this forgetting is not absolute, it often leaves imprints in the subconscious, when these imprints are enough and can be strung into a chain with each other, it becomes a flashing aura or vague intuition in people's minds. Experienced fighters are just more intuitive.
Cheng Kun himself can't remember how many rolls he has played between life and death, and he is very familiar with this kind of intuition.
He hurriedly woke up the others, and without saying why, he walked out of the tent by himself, and the scene in front of him made him subconsciously gasp. Outside the bright bonfire, what should have been a dark clearing was a pair of "Nether Pupils" that shimmered green at some point.
It was clearly the light condensed by the wolf's eyes in the night, and everyone's tent had been surrounded by wolves at some point!
And the two vigilers dozed off, not noticing the danger in front of them.
Cheng Kun roughly calculated the number of wolves, and his heart sank and sank, and he was about to fall into the bottomless abyss. As far as he could see, there were more than thirty of them, and I don't know how many were hidden in the deeper darkness. Cheng Kun woke up the two people who were keeping vigil, and there was no point in blaming the two for dereliction of duty at this time, the most important thing was to break out of the encirclement of the wolves.
Soon, everyone else woke up and walked outside the tent, and all of them, who were still a little dazed, were all awakened with fright, and their faces turned pale in the light of the fire. They have been hunting for so many years, and they may not have encountered as many wolves as they have seen tonight, and their legs have begun to weaken at this time due to their poor psychological quality.
As soon as Cheng Zhen woke up, he found that he was almost in a dead end, he didn't care about thinking about where so many wolves came from, and immediately shouted: "Everyone is moving closer to me, forming a sharp formation, throwing away all the prey, and preparing to break through." "One of the most important aspects of a good leader is to lead others out of difficult situations in times of crisis, and in this regard, Cheng Zhen has done it.
When the others heard this, they all subconsciously leaned towards Cheng Zhen, and then formed a sharp arrow formation led by Cheng Zhen in front of Cheng Kun's eyes.
Cheng Kun's eyes lit up, his father actually formed an army formation, which was really unexpected, and it seemed that he had practiced with others before, so the chance of breaking through was much greater.
Although he knew that his father had joined the army when he was young, he had never asked him what he was doing in the army, and now it seems that he is definitely not a low-level soldier. In ancient times, military formations were by no means accessible to ordinary people.
Cheng Kun also joined the formation with a spear in his hand, because he didn't understand the change in formation, he consciously stayed at the end of the formation to protect everyone.
Seeing that everyone was preparing to break through, the wolves stirred slightly.
At this time, a long wolf howl was heard in the distance, and the wolves quieted down again, but began to approach forward, revealing their hidden figures in the darkness, and blocking everyone's way to break through.
Cheng Kun's heart moved slightly, the wolf howl just now was obviously the leader of this group of wolves, which is what ordinary people call the "wolf king".
Whether a wolf pack has a wolf king or not, the combat effectiveness is completely incomparable, with the wolf king, the attack of the wolves will often be more disciplined, and they will be more fearless of death. In this way, it is difficult to say whether everyone can break through, even if they rush out by luck, the casualties must be unimaginably tragic.
You have to find an opportunity to get rid of it, Cheng Kun secretly made up his mind. Get rid of the wolf king, most of the wolves in front of you will disperse, and the crisis will be resolved. But this wolf king is also very smart, he knows very well that he is the core of the wolf pack, and he has not shown up, but only commanded the wolf pack to act in the distance, so that Cheng Kun can only cry out in vain.
Without giving everyone more time to prepare, the two wolves in front of Cheng Zhen jumped up in the air and pounced on his body. Cheng Zhen took half a step back, raised the knife in his hand and slashed straight in a straight way, the wolf in front was divided into two pieces by this knife, the stinky wolf blood sprinkled Cheng Zhen's body, and the other wolf was also divided by a few people on his side.
This is the power of the military formation, which can maximize the strengths and avoid the weaknesses and turn the advantages into victories.
The death of the two wolves did not scare off the remaining wolves at all, more wolves began to pounce on everyone one after another, and soon, more people saw blood, and the knife in the hand of Cheng Zhen, who was standing at the front, did not stop, and there were waves of blood in the wolves, leading the people behind him to move forward with difficulty.
Cheng Kun also began to kill in the back, transporting spears like guns, castrating like electricity, but the landing point was extremely accurate, and he didn't use other tricks, just the simplest way to "pierce", the tip of the spear pierced into the wolf's eyes every time, and when he pulled it out, he stirred it again, and the wolves suddenly accounted for it, and their brains were stirred into paste. It doesn't seem like a big move, but it's actually terrifying with high efficiency in killing.
It didn't take long for everyone to be completely surrounded by wolves, surrounded by dense wolves, attacking from all angles without stopping.
Gradually, everyone got farther and farther away from the fire, the light dimmed, the wolf had a cover of darkness, the attack became more hidden, and the pressure on everyone increased. Cheng Kun had already heard a few muffled snorts in the darkness, presumably someone had already been injured, but he didn't scream for fear of affecting others.
Cheng Kun's spears were like poisonous snakes spitting letters, not stopping for a moment, but his face became more and more anxious, it was not possible to go on like this, he already felt that the speed of the team's progress was slowing down, and the wolves in front of him didn't know how many there were, if he went on like this, he couldn't see the direction of victory, and it would be a great blow to everyone's fighting spirit. Moreover, everyone's physical strength is limited, and such a fierce battle is bound to not last long, and the longer the time drags on, the more slim the hope of breaking through will be.
He suddenly took a step forward, stepped out of the protection of the formation, gave up the most energy-saving spear, and the spear swept violently, and several wolves that were swept suddenly broke their muscles and bones, and let out a whimpering cry from their mouths. The wolf on the right side was cleared out at once, and the pressure of everyone was immediately reduced, and the uncles who had been fighting with Cheng Zhen only came back to their senses at this time, and when they saw the scene in front of them, they didn't have time to be surprised, and their eyes were already glowing.
Cheng Kun guessed right, they were almost desperate before, and they only insisted on holding on to the idea of pulling the wolf to cushion themselves, and even they didn't know how long they could last.
Everyone is like struggling to move forward in a long and dark tunnel, every increase in combat power makes them one step closer to the entrance of the cave of life, how can they not be excited after discovering that Cheng Kun's strength is far beyond ordinary people.
Cheng Kun walked to the front of the Arrow Formation and looked at his father: "Dad, leave the rest of the way to me." ”
Cheng Zhen glanced at his son deeply and patted Cheng Kun on the shoulder: "Son, well done, my father's biggest pride in my life is to have a son like you, but my father can't stand you and let you ......" Speaking of this, his voice was a little choked, and his eyes were moist.
Cheng Kun knew that his father's heart must be full of remorse and self-blame at this time, blaming himself for not discovering the danger in advance, which made everyone fall into a dead end. The most important thing is that there is also his favorite son in this! He fought so hard before, completely ignoring the extra wounds on his body, it is likely that he has already set his mind on death and tried everything to let his son and others break out of the encirclement.
Cheng Kun stood in front of Cheng Zhen, replaced him as the sharpest point of the formation, and said without looking back: "What did Dad say, how can there be a reason for a father to be sorry for his son, and it is far from the time of despair now, I will lead everyone to fight a way out." The words were full of soaring fighting spirit.
When Cheng Zhen heard this, he wiped his face with his big hand, and he also laughed, cleaned up his mood, and said with a smile: "Well said, let's join forces with our father and son to fight a way out." ”
At this time, the cousin of the Fengya Array of Miles Kun stopped doing it: "Second uncle, what do you mean by this, Xiao Kun is powerful, and we are not bad, these beasts, I have already killed five of them just now." ”
Hu Sizhao next to him slapped his head: "The stinky boy still killed the wolf, if it wasn't for me just now, your ass would have become four-petaled!" His left arm was blurred with flesh and blood, which was the injury he had suffered before to save Cheng Quan.
The others burst out laughing when they heard this, and their laughter was full of confidence again, sweeping away the hidden haze in their hearts.
