Chapter 1472 Wolves
The scouts reported that there were still sixteen or seventeen miles to go before they could get out of the Black Tiger Forest. Under such road conditions, it would take at least half a day to walk there.
After looking around, Sun Bai, Sun Qian and others chose a place to camp overnight in the middle of a sparsely populated forest. They cleared away all the weeds, tied the horses to the tree trunks, and placed the carriages in a large circle around the outermost area.
Four shifts were arranged to take turns on night patrol, with thirty-six people in each shift.
The rest of the people are not allowed to take off their clothes or armor when resting at night and must remain vigilant.
The sun sets gradually in the west, the sunset glow in the sky gradually becomes dim, the forest becomes darker, and the shadows of the tall trees and rocks look piece by piece like ghosts. Add to that the sound of birds flapping their wings and their sharp or strange calls that can be heard from time to time in the forest, which makes people's scalps cold and their hearts creepy.
If there weren't so many people, if only a few people stayed in this forest at night, they would probably be scared to death.
The crowd lit three fires in the entire area, and the night watchmen were responsible for watching to ensure that the fires did not go out.
It was impossible to see the moonlight in the dark forest at night, and this was also a night with very dim moonlight.
Qiao Xuan did not release her supernatural powers to explore the surroundings that night. The energy required to use supernatural powers at night was much greater than that during the day. Besides, those people had just retreated today, and it was not expected that they would come back so soon.
Even if they really come, there is no need to worry since Sun Bai, Sun Qian and the others have made such thorough preparations.
That night, no one from the other side came, but they were attacked by a pack of wolves.
A pack of more than a hundred adult gray wolves howled and rushed towards the camp in the middle of the night. They were aggressive and attacked madly as if they were risking their lives.
Everyone was startled and the entire camp immediately went into alert.
Qiao Xuan quickly used her special powers to look around. Fortunately, it was only a pack of wolves that came, and there was no one following them.
These wolves were very abnormal. They must have been given some kind of psychoactive drug. They were roaring fiercely and rushing forward without caring about their lives. This caused confusion among the guards in the camp at first, and many of them were bitten.
Afterwards, a siege was launched under the command of Sun Bai and Sun Qian.
With their large numbers, they finally killed the entire wolf pack after about half an hour.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
We lit torches and checked and cleaned up the scene. Many people were injured and they were given medicine and bandages if necessary.
Many ordinary followers were also frightened and sobbed. They gathered in groups of three or four to discuss and comfort each other...
Amid the noise at the scene, a woman's screaming and crying was the most piercing and obvious.
Others were crying, but they were really crying out of fear. They sobbed and choked, trying to keep their voices as low as possible, not daring to make any loud noise that might cause others to scold them.
But that one seemed to think that his crying was not loud enough and wanted to shout to the sky.
There is no one else except Qiao Wei.
At this moment, Shao Yunduan had gone to discuss things with Sun Bai, Sun Qian and others. Qiao Xuan was also comforting the frightened people, asking if they were injured, and ordering Lixia and Liqiu to get medicine.
Hearing Qiao Wei's life-threatening screams and cries, Qiao Xuan frowned and called Mian Mian: "Let's go over and take a look!"
Mianmian responded with a yes, and Aye quickly followed.
At this moment, a large group of people gathered around Qiao Wei. When Qiao Xuan arrived, everyone quickly dispersed, "Mrs. Shao!"
