Chapter 207: Encountering the Wolves Again
There were no snakes in the tunnel this time. Instead, there were a lot of rats, which kept rubbing against our feet, but they would not attack humans.
Soon we reached the cave exit.
Everyone worked together to cover the entrance of the cave. Li Yanwu chose a big tree near the entrance to climb up and watched the three teams disperse in different directions.
Ye Xin took Xuanxuan south, Bai Muran took Shen Fu around the semicircular mountain wall in front to the north, and Meng Jinghan took Ye Chao east.
Ye Xin did not choose to walk, but learned from the people at the cutting-edge base, shot the improved lifeline on her wrist towards the tree trunk, then picked up Xuanxuan, and used the tension of the rope to pull the two of them towards the tree trunk.
Then climb up the branches to observe the surrounding situation. This not only saves energy but also avoids many dangers.
After advancing about five kilometers, they still did not see any trace of the fox spirit, but they did see rabbits as big as wolfhounds and wild boars as big as small elephants.
Suddenly, Xuanxuan whispered in Ye Xin's ear: "Mom, don't go! Wolves! I saw wolves again!"
Ye Xin, whose hands were clinging to the tree branches, suddenly trembled: "Where is it? Don't the wolves not go deep into the base?"
Xuanxuan pointed forward with her little hand: "Right in front of us, here they come! They are running very fast! They are chasing someone!"
Ye Xin hid her figure behind the leaves and looked towards the south following Xuanxuan's little hand.
really!
About 300 meters to the south, a dozen wild wolves the size of calves were chasing a group of people.
The group of people were dressed in gray-brown clothes and had paint on their faces. If they were not moving quickly, it would be difficult to distinguish them from the tree trunks in the dense jungle.
Ye Xin recognized him at a glance: someone from the cutting-edge base!
There is also a man with a pointed chin and monkey face among them. Who else could it be but Liu Yixuan?
Behind them, there were three robots also running as hard as they could, attacking the wolves as they ran, punching with their big fists with great force.
Ye Xinke knew the power of this punch. If the wild wolves were hit by it, although they would not be killed instantly, their actions would at least be delayed for a while.
One of the robots was holding a steel knife in his hand and was swinging it desperately at the approaching wolves.
Although the wild wolves here are big in size, their movements are not clumsy at all. The robots' iron fists almost always hit them by sticking to their fur.
Wolves as big as oxen moved through the jungle, as silent as ghosts, with only the rustling sound of grass and trees being blown down.
As soon as a person is caught up, the wild wolf will slightly bend its hind legs and leap forward with all its might. The person will be thrown to the ground before he or she has time to react, and the wolf will break the person's neck as soon as it opens its mouth!
From running to jumping, and then to biting the neck, the whole process does not make a sound, only blood spurting and silent killing.
Ye Xin couldn't help but feel her scalp tingling as she watched: How could these be wolves? They were clearly a group of killing machines!
Liu Yixuan was jogging fast. When he saw the wolves approaching, he shouted, "Lifeline!"
He raised his wrist and shot out the lifeline. Using the force of the lifeline, he quickly flew up the tree, then raised his hand and shot out...
Don’t worry about the robot behind you, just run for your life!
The wolves looked at the four flying bipedal animals. A large gray wolf raised its head and shouted to the sky, "Awooo..."
The wolves seemed to have received an order and instantly dispersed, hiding in the bushes and disappearing without a trace.
Ye Xin breathed a sigh of relief immediately. Without the wolves blocking the way ahead, they could finally move on.
Unexpectedly, Xuanxuan grabbed her wrist and said, "Mom, wait a minute! The wolves haven't left! These four people are dead!"
Ye Xin was stunned, put down the wrist that she had just raised, and waited quietly for the next step.
Liu Yixuan and his gang of four were all in tattered clothes and covered in blood. It seemed that they had been running away for a long time. When they saw the wolves had disappeared, they all lay on the tree trunk, gasping for breath.
The robot seemed to be running out of power. It stayed where it was and didn't move, except for occasionally shaking its arms.
Liu Yixuan swung the lifeline on his wrist: "Damn! The battery is low! How are you guys doing?"
The three of them raised their wrists at the same time and shook their heads: "Not much left!"
Liu Yixuan gritted his teeth and said, "Go down! If it doesn't work, let's retreat! Next time, prepare a few more lifelines."
They were less than 100 meters away from Ye Xin. A man nodded and said, "Dr. Liu is right. The boss has been here several times but never reached this point. Our results today are already good! Let's go! Let's go back first."
The four of them rested on the tree for a while, then walked down the tree like monkeys and headed back.
Ye Xin looked carefully for a long time but did not find any wild wolves. Seeing that they were about to leave, Ye Xin became a little anxious.
If the wild wolf doesn't take them in, she, Ye Xin, can do it for them!
This Liu Yixuan cannot be kept!
Just when Ye Xin was considering whether to take action, she suddenly discovered that Liu Yixuan and four others had been surrounded by the wolf pack!
Two wild wolves suddenly appeared in front of them, and one of them grabbed a man in its mouth. Before he could even shout, the wolf's fangs had already pierced his body, and blood began to splatter.
The rest of them became even more panicked. They looked back and saw that there were also wild wolves blocking their way back, so they had no choice but to turn around and run east!
To the east was a group of cliffs, with bare cliffs tightly packed together. People could pass through, but it was difficult for a huge wild wolf to squeeze through the gap in the middle.
Ye Xin couldn't help but nodded: It seems that this group of people have also received special training and made the most correct judgment in just a moment.
The four wolves in front and behind had no intention of chasing them. They just followed them slowly, as if they were trying to drive them towards the cliff.
Ye Xin couldn't help but sweat for the wolves: Chase them quickly! Otherwise they will run away!
Xuanxuan whispered to her, "Don't worry, mom. The wolves are planning to take them there! Not only are there wolves guarding there, but there is also a litter of wolf cubs! Look!"
Ye Xin followed Xuanxuan's little hand and looked towards the southeast, and sure enough, there was a wild wolf there!
She thought silently in her heart: If I were Liu Yixuan, I would definitely drill into the rock wall from the south, and then walk through the narrow gaps, leaving the sharp wolf fangs useless, and then make a big circle to get rid of the wolves.
Now there are wild wolves at the entrance on the south side of the rock wall, so the only option is to drill into the rock wall from the north. Although it will take a detour, it can still get rid of the wolves.
So she began to look for the wolf pack according to her own ideas, and sure enough, she saw two more wild wolves at the entrance of the northern rock wall!
The two wolves were hiding behind a large rock at the entrance to the rock wall. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see their shadows at all.
One of the wild wolves kept looking back to the north. Following the wolf's gaze, Ye Xin found the little wolf cub that Xuanxuan had mentioned!
There were about five or six wolf cubs, all curled up on a "small bed" made of branches and leaves. Two of them seemed to be injured, and one wild wolf was licking his wounds constantly.
These little wolf cubs are as big as wolfhounds!
Ye Xin understood immediately!
The wild wolves on the south side deliberately exposed themselves so that they would choose to enter the rock wall from the north. In this way, the wild wolves could kill them and drag them directly to the wolf cubs for enjoyment.
Seeing this, Ye Xin couldn't help but shudder: These wolves are very cunning!
The four wolves behind were chasing the three people towards the rock wall. One of the wolves looked back and saw where Ye Xin was hiding.
Ye Xin suddenly had an illusion: the wolf had discovered them!
Impossible!
She thought she had hidden herself very well. Even if trained soldiers passed under the tree, they might not be able to find them. They were just a few wolves.
Stay calm! Stay calm!
At this time, Liu Yixuan had already run near the rock wall and was about to turn south when he suddenly saw two wild wolves on the south side of the rock wall. Without thinking, he turned around and ran north.
When they ran to the north side of the rock wall and were about to turn into the rock wall, two wolves suddenly jumped out from behind the rock...
None of the three survived.
Ye Xin broke out in a cold sweat and thought to himself: If I were Liu Yixuan, would I be able to escape from the wolf pack's encirclement?
The result is obvious: she can't do it either!
Watching the wolves dragging away the bodies of three people, she was about to continue on her way, but when she looked down, she almost fell to the ground.
Damn it! When did I get surrounded by wolves?!
