The brothers followed Old Man Gu's gaze and saw several pairs of green eyes not far away from them.
Gu Laoer was so scared that his legs went limp, and he held tightly in his hand the sickle he had brought with him up the mountain.
The same was true for the other brothers, but there were limited things at home.
The eldest brother Gu was holding a hoe, while the third and fourth brothers were holding wooden sticks.
Only Old Man Gu still had a shovel in his hand.
I have to say, this family's attire and configuration look like they are delivering vegetables up the mountain.
As Lu Yan thought about this, the mockery on his face became more intense.
Wolves are easier to deal with than wild boars and black bears.
However, Lu Yan did not rush down to help.
Gu Lao Er has already thought of ruining her reputation. He can't still be fantasizing that she can help him out of danger, right?
"Ouch."
“Ooo ...
The howling of wolves seemed extremely creepy in the silent night.
The Gu brothers stood back to back, their faces filled with fear.
"Dad, what should we do now?"
Mr. Gu asked Old Man Gu cautiously.
Among them, only Old Man Gu had seen the world, so his sons naturally listened to him.
Old Man Gu couldn't suppress his fear at this moment. He trembled all over and said, "Don't be afraid. The more fear you show at a time like this, the harder it will be to escape."
Although what Old Man Gu said made sense, the way he trembled all over was also very funny.
Lu Yan finally understood that this old man was a bully who only bullied the weak and feared the strong.
In just a short while, the fear on his face had already drawn Lu Yan's ridicule.
She looked at the scene in front of her with a smile on her face, still wondering how Old Man Gu would escape from danger.
Unexpectedly, Old Man Gu also spoke at this time: "Calm down."
If he hadn't been shaking like a sieve, Lu Yan would have believed what he said.
Old Man Gu took a deep breath and turned to his sons, saying, "Be smart. Second son, find an opportunity and rush down the mountain! Go straight to the village chief and bring some people over."
Lu Yan: “…”
Was this an idea that Old Man Gu came up with?
Given Gu Laoer's fragile body, by the time he goes down the mountain to ask for help, the entire Gu family will probably be wiped out.
In fact, the other brothers of the Gu family all thought so.
When Gu Lao Da, Gu Lao San, and Gu Lao Si heard what their father said, their expressions became subtle.
Gu Lao Si was the first to speak: "Dad, Second Brother is in such poor condition. By the time he comes down the mountain to get help, I think we brothers will all be dead."
What Gu Laosi said can be said to be very unlucky.
But the other brothers did not refute.
To be honest, what Gu Laosi said was the truth and he couldn't really deceive anyone.
"Dad, how about I go?"
Boss Gu also spoke.
The remaining few concentrated their firepower on the wolves, while the rest could only stay in the mountains and wait for rescue.
In the final analysis, Old Man Gu wanted them, the brothers, to risk their lives to pave the way for Old Man Gu.
Even if this family dotes on the second child on weekdays, it is impossible for them to have no thoughts at all at this time.
"That's right, Dad, you are too partial." Gu Lao San also spoke with an unhappy look on his face.
"No matter what, they are all Dad's sons. Why should we brothers have to cover for him just because the second brother can live?"
The brothers of the Gu family spoke one after another, and what they said was based on their own standpoints.
Sure enough, in the face of death, no one can be selfless.
Old Man Gu stood there, took a deep breath, and then another deep breath.
He obviously had a lot to say, but at this moment he couldn't utter a single word.
He does have selfish motives.
Gu Laoer is the hope of their family. He used to hope that Gu Laoer could bring honor to the family, but now he hopes that he can stay alive.
As a father, Old Man Gu just made the most rational choice.
The other brothers of the Gu family are all farmers who make a living from the land. How can such people compare with a scholar like Gu Lao Er?
Old man Gu gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with deep loneliness.
He even risked his own life, but his sons...
"You all should talk less. Dad has eaten more salt than we have eaten rice, so we should listen to him!" Gu Laoer gritted his teeth and walked to the gates of hell for the second time today.
Since he was able to sell the fifth son of the Gu family in the afternoon and escape alone.
At this time, I can also sell my father and other brothers.
For a selfish person like Gu Laoer, it doesn't make much difference.
As Gu Laoer said this, he was ready to rush out regardless of everything.
But without the help of the other brothers, he ran out to deliver food to the wolves. At this moment, the wolves had already set their sights on Gu Lao Er in the crowd.
That look seemed as if he was waiting to tear Gu Laoer to pieces at any time.
Gu Laoer's steps forward suddenly retracted.
But it was too late.
The wolves' eyes instantly turned red, and they rushed towards the direction of the Gu family members regardless of everything.
Everything happened so suddenly that Gu Laoer was completely dumbfounded.
He quickly raised the weapon in his hand and fought against the wolves that were rushing towards him together with his other brothers.
However, the wolves came with great force.
Among them, the location where Gu Laoer is located is the most important.
It’s not that Gu Lao Er looks fresh and refined, but compared with the men in the Gu family who work in the fields, Gu Lao Er, who has been studying for many years, looks thin and frail.
"Get out of here! Get out of here!"
Gu Lao Er was a little different from his other brothers. In extreme fear, Gu Lao Er almost swung the sickle around.
When Boss Gu and others saw his action, they couldn't help but look at him with contempt.
At this time, the wolf king jumped up and headed straight towards Gu Laoer.
"Second brother, be careful."
Old man Gu, who was originally fighting with the wolves, was furious when he saw this scene.
He rushed over quickly and raised his hand to block the wolf king's attack for Gu Laoer.
But, it was only a short moment of distraction.
The wolf that had originally targeted Old Man Gu pounced directly on his leg. The wolf bit Old Man Gu's calf, causing him to gasp in pain.
Next came the third and fourth Gu.
The two men were injured to varying degrees while fighting with the wolves.
Standing on the tree, Lu Yan could clearly see that some people were gathering at the foot of the mountain and preparing to go up the mountain.
Gu Lao Er is indeed worthy of being the male protagonist of the original book. This didn’t even cost him his life.
Lu Yan felt inexplicably sorry, but did not delay any further.
She swooped down from the tree like a monkey, quickly grabbed one of the wolves by the tail, spun it around a few times, and then threw it directly at Gu Laoer's face.
In a moment, Gu Laoer fainted.
At this moment, Old Man Gu and the others also noticed that there seemed to be something extra around them.
Lu Yan dealt with several brothers of the Gu family one after another. When it was Old Man Gu's turn, he saw that Old Man Gu was looking at him with horror.
"Old...Old Wu's family?"
Old Man Gu thought he must be dazzled.
