The children can finally rest.
In the not-so-warm firelight, they ran happily, bringing a glimmer of hope to the adults' silent hearts.
Suddenly, the howling of wolves broke the silence.
There was a commotion among the crowd.
The adults rushed to hug their children.
The children also threw themselves into their parents' arms.
Everyone's hearts were in their throats, and they looked around vigilantly.
Little Jiang Beichen was put into his sister's arms by his brother and then hugged tightly.
Jiang Nange protected Xin Guoguo and her brother with one hand:
"Guoguo, Chenchen, don't be afraid, I'm here."
Little Jiang Beichen nodded obediently: "Yes, brother, I'm not afraid."
"Wolves are afraid of fire."
Xing Guoguo spoke behind him,
"As long as we guard this fire, they shouldn't dare come near. There's still food in the mountains, so there's no need for them to take risks."
“Ouch~”
The howling of wolves came one after another, as if they were getting closer.
Several younger children were frightened and started crying.
Xin Guoguo held little Jiang Beichen's hand tightly.
The others could only move closer to the fire and try their best to comfort the frightened children.
The crowd gradually quieted down, but everyone stared nervously at the darkness around them.
Suddenly, a dark shadow rushed out from the woods.
"Ah!" someone screamed.
The black shadow turned flexibly in the air, avoiding the flames and landing not far from the crowd.
With the faint light of the fire, everyone could see the appearance of the black shadow clearly. It turned out to be a huge white wolf.
He was standing on a tall tree stump, looking down at the crowd below.
The white wolf is a natural king.
Its white fur looks particularly bright and beautiful under the moonlight.
Its eyes flashed green as it stared at the crowd fiercely, the cold light in its eyes full of contempt.
That is the king's indifference to the weak food.
"Everyone, don't panic!" the tall man shouted. "Stay calm and don't move!"
However, his voice failed to calm everyone down.
Some refugees who followed had already started picking up the things around them, trying to drive away the white wolf.
"Don't provoke it!" The tall man saw this and hurriedly stopped it. "Wolves are social animals. Maybe its companions are nearby."
At this moment, as if to verify his guess, the white wolf suddenly raised his neck and shouted:
“Ouch~”
Before the voice fell, people heard the howling of wolves coming from all around, as if in response.
Soon, more dark shadows emerged from the woods.
Everyone found that they were surrounded by wolves.
They surrounded the crowd, growling softly, but did not dare to approach immediately.
At this time, a refugee raised the axe in his hand high and smashed it hard at the wolf that was approaching tentatively in front of him.
The wolf's eyes flashed with bloodlust.
He jumped and easily dodged the attack.
When the man lost his balance due to exerting too much force and was about to fall, it used its hind legs to pounce on him.
"ah!"
Seeing this, his wife and children, who were protected behind him, screamed.
The woman fainted magnificently, holding her infant child in her arms.
She also didn't see that at the moment she fainted, a feather arrow shot from not far away and pierced through the wolf's eyebrows.
The wolf fell to the ground with a bang in mid-air.
Then several arrows were shot one after another.
The arrows accurately hit several wolves that were eager to fight.
Before the battle officially started, more than half of the wolf pack had been killed.
This made the Wolf King very dissatisfied.
Its gaze darted around.
Soon he found the direction from which the arrows came.
It let out a "woof" and then jumped down from the tree stump lightly.
The wolves immediately retreated.
A few wolves even separated from the team and ran in the direction instructed by the wolf king.
Feather arrows rained down again.
However, this time the wolf pack had gained experience. Although some wolves were still injured, many of them avoided the attacks and continued to move forward without even slowing down their running speed.
Soon, someone was discovered.
The archers hiding in the dark kept shooting arrows, but the wolves were too numerous and were becoming smarter, so they dodged quickly.
The archers' arrows gradually decreased and more and more people were injured.
Seeing this, the others also started to move.
A war between humans and wolves broke out instantly.
But there were too many refugees and too many people who did not know martial arts, and soon some were injured and some were killed by wolves.
Although Jiang Nan Ge was holding a hatchet in his hand, he was waving it very hard.
But he was just a weak scholar after all. After a few moves, he felt his arms aching and could hardly hold the hilt of the knife.
If Xin Guoguo hadn't helped from time to time, the three of them would have been injured or eaten by wolves.
This is obviously not a solution.
Xin Guoguo frowned, thinking about how to deal with the situation.
Soon, a big tree not far away caught her attention.
It's the right height there.
Most importantly, stay close to the wolves.
"Jiangnan Ge, take good care of your brother."
Xin Guoguo pushed Jiang Beichen from her arms into Jiang Nange's arms.
Then he grabbed a torch from the fire and ran towards the big tree.
She climbed up the tree nimbly.
With his feet hooked in the monkey-catching-the-moon pose, he grabbed a torch and wandered among the wolves.
