Xiao Yi put on his clothes, drew his usual long knife, and got out of the car. He began to ask people to light all the firewood to form an encirclement. Most beasts and animals are afraid of fire. Xiao Yi believed that it was always a good idea to light up this wilderness first.
Huang Xiongwei, Cheng Yi, and the others also disembarked and began directing everyone's defenses. Everyone stood in high alert, cheering each other on. The person on the lookout finally got some information and began reporting over the intercom: "Report, an unidentified group has appeared about a kilometer ahead, moving very quickly. Please give us instructions."
"Repeat, there is an unidentified black group about 800 meters ahead, moving very fast, please give instructions!!!!"
An unidentified black object made everyone a little nervous. But even at this moment, there was nothing they could do.
Xiao Yi didn't hesitate either, standing directly on the outermost roof, letting the cold wind howl and hit him. His expression was also a little nervous. Two minutes later, Xiao Yi keenly smelled a fishy smell, pungent and familiar!!!
It was a weasel! For some reason, weasels were not only quite good, but they also usually appeared in large groups. In his previous life, Xiao Yi had once led a team to hunt weasels. Their fur could be used to make clothes, and their meat could be eaten. It was truly a valuable commodity.
But similarly, weasels are often accompanied by a group of animals infected with the zombie virus, such as a large number of zombie dogs. Their combat effectiveness is also very amazing. Thinking of this, Xiao Yi shouted into the intercom: "Be careful, it's probably a group of animals. Don't get bitten, you will be infected with the zombie virus."
As Xiao Yi finished speaking, the weasels and zombie dogs, along with the squeaking sounds of rats, began to appear. Glowing green eyes began to appear in the darkness. Now everyone could see the true form of the monsters surrounding them. They were actually enormous weasels, zombie dogs, and a large group of zombie rats that were over ten times larger than regular rats!
They probably smelled human scent and surrounded us under cover of darkness. Fortunately, Xiao Yi had been alerted in advance, so no one was caught off guard by these creatures. Otherwise, if these creatures, of varying sizes and extremely agile, had entered the convoy, it would have been a real nuisance. Hiding in the shadows and attacking unexpectedly would have been incredibly difficult for anyone to defend against.
But now, Xiao Yi reminded everyone in advance to use a wall of fire to surround the camp tightly, so these weasels, zombie dogs and rats would not easily approach or try to break through. This also bought everyone space and time for fighting.
After seeing clearly what was on the opposite side, everyone did not hesitate and picked up their weapons and started attacking.
Those who were trained could basically hit the target with one shot, using the light of the fire. The rest would stay by the fire and hit anyone who tried to jump in with a club.
Xiao Yi leaped from the carriage and, in the shadows, grabbed a plump weasel. Slowly, he peeled its skin and flesh apart, causing warm blood to spurt out. Xiao Yi then pulled a rope from his spaceship and tied the bleeding, struggling weasel to a bundle of explosives. He then tossed it directly into the attacking herd of animals. Creatures like rats, when their companions are injured, will rush forward without hesitation to devour them, and some will even choose to eat themselves. The bleeding, struggling weasel immediately attracted the attention of many of its companions, who gathered around it. But the next second, the hundreds of surrounding rats and weasels were blown skyward! Seeing Xiao Yi's method, the crowd began to follow suit. Some continued to suppress the attack, while others rushed to bleed the weasel to set up the bomb! !!!
With the crackling of flames, in just over half an hour, more than half of the people on the opposite side had been killed or injured. They finally became afraid and began to flee in all directions. Only the stupider zombie dogs were not only not flexible enough, but also slow to escape, and were almost all wiped out.
Everyone cheered. They had encountered similar attacks before, but they had never fought so smoothly or won so happily as this time. They all started cheering and celebrating.
Of course, everyone knew this victory was due to Xiao Yi's foresight of the danger and his ability to lead everyone into battle. Xiao Yi had dealt with them many times in his past life, so dealing with them was relatively easy. However, in everyone's eyes, Xiao Yi was not only a strong fighter, but also a very strategic one. He was qualified to lead everyone to survive.
Xiao Yi really didn't think too much about it, he just told everyone that the weasel's skin was good for keeping warm, and the weasel's internal organs and meat were also edible.
In the past, no one knew about it at first, and was even terrified. Eventually, someone, starving beyond endurance, secretly picked one up, stewed it, and ate it. No discomfort was noticed. The fur was warm and soft, and no parasites were found.
This meat tastes pretty good. It is much better than rat meat. At least it won’t make you sick or poison you.
When everyone heard the news, Huang Xiongwei and Cheng Meng called everyone else out, holding torches and gathering the dead weasels. They began skinning and removing the flesh before they were completely frozen. The skins weren't wasted; they rubbed them in snow, dried them, and then sewed them together with thick rope. Even without a needle, a sharp thread would pierce the holes, making them very thick and warm.
Everyone started collecting. Those who had just participated in the battle could naturally get more, and those who were only at the back could also pick up what others didn't want.
However, Cheng Meng and Huang Xiongwei also clearly stipulated that no one could touch other bodies. If an infectious disease was discovered, the people in the same compartment would not only be isolated but also abandoned to fend for themselves. So not only did everyone avoid touching the bodies themselves, they also watched others for fear of being implicated.
