When Zhao Wei was deep in thought, he suddenly heard a low howl coming from a distance. Different from the sharp howl of the snow wolf before, this sound was as deep as thunder, which made people's eardrums tremble.
The wolves under the tree suddenly became collectively agitated. Their dark green eyes all turned to the northwest. They actually began to slowly retreat, whimpering in fear in their throats.
"Something's wrong." Lin Qinghe tightly grasped the medicine box and stared into the depths of the snow and fog. "What are the wolves afraid of, and..."
He suddenly paused, "Do you smell it?"
A pungent fishy smell mixed with the smell of blood hit Yunxiu in the face, and she subconsciously covered her mouth and nose.
Zhao Wei held Da Huang in his arms, and cold sweat oozed from his hands as he gripped the shotgun.
In the wind and snow, a huge black shadow slowly emerged. It was on all fours but was half a person's height. It was covered with black hair and had a strange and fierce light in its eyes. The ground vibrated violently with its steps.
"This... this is not a wolf!"
Yunxiu's voice trembled.
It was a ferocious-looking black bear with a hideous scar on its forehead extending from its left eye to the corner of its mouth, and a violent flame burning in its small eye sockets.
It seemed that he was enraged by the bloody scene, and the beastly nature in his body was chilling.
This is not the first time Zhao Wei has encountered a black bear.
But it is definitely the scariest one.
The tonnage alone is like a small mountain, and every step seems to tear this world apart.
Lin Qinghe suddenly grabbed Zhao Wei's arm: "This beast is too fierce, shoot quickly and stop it..."
Before he finished his words, the black bear suddenly raised its head and roared. The sound waves caused the snow on the branches to fall off.
The wolves turned around and fled in all directions as if they had been pardoned, but were caught up by the black bears. The sound of their sharp claws tearing open the wolves' bellies was particularly clear in the silent snow forest.
The ferocious snow wolf was completely vulnerable in front of it.
He killed one of them in just one encounter.
"It's coming towards us!"
All the snow wolves present had scattered like birds and beasts, running so quickly that they disappeared without a trace.
The black bear couldn't catch up, so it could only look at Zhao Wei and the others.
If they were allowed to get near this tree, they would be doomed.
This tree is so vulnerable in front of this black bear that it will probably be knocked down in just a few hits.
Zhao Wei and Yun Xiu tried firing two or three times and hit the target every time.
But this injury was actually harmless to the black bear, and there was no way to stop it.
In the face of absolute strength, guns are really useless.
Zhao Wei pushed Yunxiu and Lin Qinghe into the tree: "You keep an eye on Dahuang, I'll lead it away!"
"No!" Yunxiu grabbed the corner of his clothes tightly, "You'll die if you go!"
She suddenly caught a glimpse of a trace of herbs sticking out of Lin Qinghe's medicine box and asked anxiously, "Master Lin, I know you have a kind heart. Can you give us this medicine?"
"But this thing is too poisonous..."
Before Lin Qinghe could finish his words, the bear was about to pounce under the tree, and the bloody wind made it impossible to open one's eyes.
Zhao Wei raised his shotgun and fired three shots, but the bullets seemed to hit cotton, splashing only a few drops of blood.
After being enraged, the black bear stood up and pushed the tree trunk hard. The whole tree shook violently and Yunxiu almost fell down.
At the critical moment, Zhao Wei suddenly reached out and grabbed Yunxiu's waist, pulling her into his arms. Da Huang also barked anxiously and pressed his head against Yunxiu's back to prevent her from losing her balance.
"Give me the medicine!" Zhao Wei turned and shouted at Lin Qinghe, his eyes full of determination, "If you hesitate any longer, we will all die!"
Lin Qinghe gritted his teeth, took out a brown medicine bottle from the bottom of the medicine box, and said tremblingly: "This is 'Jianxue Fenghou San'. Just a little bit is enough to poison a bison, but it must enter the wound..."
Zhao Wei grabbed the medicine bottle, tightened the hemp rope around his waist, and shouted to Yunxiu, "Take care of yourself and Dahuang! Don't fall."
Without waiting for Yunxiu to stop him, he jumped directly down from one end of the branch. Fortunately, there was thick snow underneath, which acted as a buffer, so he was not afraid of being injured.
The moment he landed, he sprinkled a handful of powder on the black bear.
There were many bullet holes on the black bear's body, with blood oozing out of them.
Sprinkle this powder on it and the effect will be immediate.
The black bear was stimulated by the sudden severe pain, roared angrily, and slapped Zhao Wei with its huge paw.
Zhao Wei rolled sideways and barely avoided the attack, but the strong wind from the bear's paw caused his cheek to hurt.
He took advantage of the gap when the black bear was swinging its claws, jumped up, and stuffed all the remaining powder in his hand into the wound on the black bear's back.
The black bear roared in pain and spun around madly, its sharp claws leaving deep grooves in the snow.
Zhao Wei took the opportunity to run away, shouting loudly as he ran: "Come on! You beast!"
Yunxiu was anxious on the tree. He raised his shotgun and kept shooting, trying to distract the black bear.
Lin Qinghe quickly boiled some herbs into a thick medicinal juice, preparing to treat Zhao Wei's wound after he returned.
Of course, Dahuang's body also needs to be treated with medicine, otherwise, this dog would have died here long ago.
The black bear was enraged and temporarily ignored Yunxiu and Lin Qinghe in the tree. It turned around and chased after Zhao Wei.
The earth shook as it ran, and every step raised large clouds of snow and mist.
Zhao Wei knew that he could not be caught up by it, so he simply cut the rope around his waist and tried his best to move through the snow, using trees and rocks to hide.
He wanted to lead the black bear away.
However, although the black bear was big in size, it was quite fast and soon closed the distance.
Just as the black bear was about to pounce on Zhao Wei, it suddenly staggered, and its huge body fell heavily on the snow.
Zhao Wei looked back and saw that the black bear's seven orifices were bleeding and its limbs were twitching constantly. It was obvious that the drug had taken effect.
After this intense exercise, the medicinal properties quickly spread throughout the body.
Zhao Wei breathed a sigh of relief, his legs went limp, and he sat down on the snow.
But he knew he couldn't relax yet, so he forced himself to walk towards the big tree.
There are still snow wolves lying in ambush around. These beasts have not gone far yet, and the sound of wolf howling can still be heard lingering around.
They just won't give up. How great a hatred could there be to make them sacrifice their lives like this?
He gripped the shotgun tightly and looked around vigilantly. The injured part of his body was shaking constantly, and every step he took felt like he was walking on the edge of a knife.
Suddenly, a gray shadow flashed in the snow and fog on the left.
Zhao Wei turned around abruptly and aimed his shotgun at the source of the sound, only to see a lame snow wolf limping out from behind a tree.
The wolf was skin and bones, its left front paw was bloody and its eyes were full of ferocity.
Then one after another, countless snow wolves appeared around him.
Zhao Wei leaned against a thick pine tree, turned the shotgun in a circle in his palm, and quickly pressed the few remaining bullets into the magazine.
The snow wolves slowly gathered in a fan shape, the moonlight dancing on their jagged fangs, and every pair of eyes was like a poisoned dagger.
The lame snow wolf suddenly let out a long, shrill howl, and the wolf pack accelerated instantly. The sound of their claws tearing through the snow was like the footsteps of approaching death.
