The sky was dim, with only a few sparse stars visible.
“Woof woof woof——”
The barking of dogs came intermittently through the mist.
An Ci and his group were suddenly awakened.
"What's that sound?" Eric looked around blankly.
Anyang said, "It sounds like a dog barking."
An Ci noticed a black shadow moving not far away, and his clear peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly.
The next second, when she saw clearly what the moving "black shadow" was, her expression changed.
"It's a pack of wolfhounds, run." Then she ran away.
When the others heard that there were wolfhounds, and a group of them at that, their expressions immediately changed, and they followed An Ci's footsteps without hesitation.
"Ahhhh."
The barking of dogs continued behind him, and Eric turned around to take a look.
My goodness, this look almost sent him away.
A dozen wolfhounds were chasing after them, their eyes glowing green as they stared at them, their saliva dripping from their mouths.
"Fuck him, doing this so early in the morning." He raised his head and cursed as he ran.
"Is there any humanity left?"
Seeing that a pack of wolfhounds were about to catch up, An Ci's heart sank. He raised his eyes and saw the towering tree in front of him, and immediately made a decision.
"Hurry up, everyone, climb up the tree." She shouted, and then climbed up the tree using her hands and feet.
When she and Eric were at the manor, they climbed trees a lot, so this height was no problem for them.
The others followed suit, using all their strength to climb the tree, and all their elegance and grace were thrown away.
At this moment, of course, staying alive is the most important thing.
"ah."
An Siyu slipped and lost her balance and fell down. Fortunately, a hand reached out in time and grabbed her.
A low, hoarse voice came from above her head, "Hold on tight."
An Siyu raised her head and met those dark and bright peach blossom eyes. She was slightly stunned, as if she didn't expect that the person who saved her would be An Ci.
"Ahhhh."
The wolfhounds chased them to the tree, raised their heads and barked at them. Seeing An Siyu hanging in the air, one or two of the wolfhounds tried to jump up and bite her feet.
"ah."
An Siyu huddled up her legs, tears streaming down her face in fear. "Don't bite me."
Eric moved to An Ci's side and offered his hand to An Siyu, "Give me your hand."
An Siyu quickly raised her hand. Eric grabbed her hand, exchanged a look with An Ci, and they both pulled her up at the same time.
An Siyu sat down on the tree, the tears on her face had not yet dried, and she breathed a sigh of relief with a mixture of shock and uncertainty.
"Ahhhh."
The duck that was about to be caught flew away, and the wolfhound walked back and forth around the tree, growling angrily at them.
Looking at the dozen or so wolfhounds below, Anyang tightened his grip on the vine and swallowed, "Luckily, Xiaoci discovered it quickly."
Otherwise, if you run a step slower, you might become the meal of these wolfhounds.
Eric frowned as he looked at the wolfhound that refused to leave.
He said aggrievedly, "If I knew which bastard released the wolfhound, I would beat him to death."
It's simply unethical.
An Jianwen calmed his breath and said, "It must have been done by the group of people who stole our backpacks."
Anyang said depressedly, "What should we do next? We can't stay in the tree forever."
"Xiao Ci, why don't you speak?" Eric looked at An Ci with confusion in his eyes.
An Ci bent one leg and dangled the other leg in the air, as if even the sky falling had nothing to do with her.
She looked at the wolfhounds circling below and licked her lips. "I wonder what wolfhound meat tastes like?"
Others were numb, “…”
Are they too narrow-minded, or is she crazy? She actually wants to eat wolfdog meat at this time.
Facing An Ci's sparkling eyes, Eric was afraid that she would impulsively jump down to catch the dog, so he raised his hand to hold her shoulder, "Xiao Ci, calm down."
An Ci turned around and saw their horrified expressions. He raised an eyebrow and asked, "Who among you would kill a dog?"
Everyone quickly shook their heads, in a rare moment of unanimous agreement, "No, no."
An Ci chuckled, "Aren't you hungry?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone fell silent.
How could I not be hungry? I've only eaten one biscuit since yesterday, and my stomach is already empty.
But forget it when it comes to eating wolfhound meat.
An Ci saw through their thoughts and smiled faintly. If a person is really starving, he would dare to eat not only wolf and dog meat, but also rat meat.
The wolfhound circled under the tree for a while, but when An Ci and the others didn't come down, it had to leave in shame.
"Will they come back?" Eric asked worriedly as he watched the wolfhounds walk away.
An Ci said, "Wait a little longer."
No one else had any objections. After all, they didn't want to be chased by the wolfhound again.
After waiting for a long time, the wolfhound did not come back, so An Ci and his group came down from the tree.
Eric dusted off his coat and his stomach growled.
"Gurgle~"
An Ci looked at him, and Eric smiled innocently, "I think I'm a little hungry."
An Ci laughed, "Let's go find something to eat."
At this moment, everyone forgot that An Ci was the youngest among them and subconsciously listened to her. Perhaps it was because in their minds, An Ci was the kind of person with a lot of clever ideas who could always come up with ways to deal with things when encountering problems.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, An Ci suddenly stopped.
Little did they know that she had just experienced being chased by a wolfhound and had a psychological trauma. When she stopped, Eric and the others reflexively thought that something was going to happen.
