Chapter 45 46. Crisis
The items in the entire space are still arranged as before, except for the water storage compartment which is relatively empty, the others are still full.
Gu Wenheng suddenly grabbed her hand and said, "It's not your problem. Now everyone is in danger."
Now not only Jin Qianqian's heartbeat quickened, Gu Wenheng also felt himself starting to panic.
Before Jin Qianqian could come to her senses, Gu Wenheng pulled her up and looked around.
"What are you doing?" Jin Qianqian finished her words, but her eyes were fixed on the distance. "Over there, do you see any light?"
Gu Wenheng gritted his teeth and said, "That's a wild animal, but I don't know what kind of animal it is?"
Without thinking, Gu Wenheng immediately shouted, "Everyone hurry up, something's wrong."
"What's going on? Why aren't you sleeping so late at night?" Someone immediately replied impatiently.
"What's going on?" Someone immediately sat up, obviously frightened by what happened before.
"Look over there, there is a light. Does anyone know what kind of animal it is?" Gu Wenheng had a guess in his mind, but he still wanted to be more certain.
"It looks like a pack of wolves," Gu Yuanjin and Gu Yuanmu used to go up the mountain to hunt together, and they would often run into those old hunters.
So even though they had never encountered a wolf, they had some understanding of its habits.
"Wolf?" Jin Qianqian hugged her arms tightly. "It was so dry along the way, how could there be wolves in this land?"
Gu Wenheng whispered, "You forgot the green we saw before. Maybe there is water there."
Jin Qianqian, "Doesn't that mean we can't go there either?"
Gu Wenheng is now unsure. After all, we are all flesh and blood. When we encounter such wild beasts, we can only avoid them instead of rushing up to fight for their territory.
"They are staring at this side now. It may be because the strong smell of blood attracted them." Gu Yuanjin grabbed the knife in his hand and called his three sons, "Hurry up and pile up the firewood. Collect everything that can be collected nearby. Don't run away. Move quickly."
"Wolves are afraid of fire?" Gu Shulin ran over and heard it. "My father just wanted to ask if you have any good ideas?"
In the village, only the brothers would go into the mountains to hunt, so Gu Sanbu naturally thought of them.
Gu Yuanjin, "I've only heard from old hunters before that if it's a wolf pack, then it depends on our luck.
Not only are they numerous, they are also cunning, and the only thing that can temporarily stop them is the fire."
Gu Wenheng, "Try to gather people together, so that we can save some firewood."
"Hurry up," Jin Qianqian didn't care at this time. She pointed to the high mountain on the side and drew a half circle in the air, "Hurry up and surround it from there."
Gu Shulin now understood that it was indeed a place that could be attacked and defended, and it was also facing away from the wind, so smoke could not drift in.
No one dared to delay and called out to each other. The tacit understanding along the way made everyone run there in a rush. Not only did they take their own bags, they also ran and moved all the firewood they could pick up.
Any movement here is like a sign of wind, and everyone will take action when they hear it.
Perhaps the noise here was too loud, and the pairs of lantern-like eyes on the hillside were startled and began to move quickly.
"They are coming," someone screamed, and everyone's eyes were on the mountain.
Gu Wenheng grabbed the torch in his hand and said, "Don't just stand there, light it quickly."
"There are people over there," Lan Ying suddenly screamed, pointing in the direction where Li Chuntong and the others were tied up.
"So what if there are people here? Why don't you go and bring them in?" Liu Liu rolled his eyes countless times when Gu Yuanlei brought that family into the team. Now, hearing these inexplicable words, he directly retorted.
"How can you be so cruel?" Lan Ying covered her mouth, a look of disbelief on her face.
Liu Liu was so angry that she didn't react for a moment. Wang Caiyue, who was standing beside her, pushed back neither softly nor hard, "You are kind and compassionate, so shouldn't you do this kind of good deed? Hurry up and bring the person over, so that we can all praise you."
"you……"
Jin Qianqian, who was originally nervous, was also amused by them. She pursed her lips and tried not to laugh out loud.
"Here they come," Gu Yuanjin stared at the front, "We brothers will block the front, and Letian and the others will be on guard behind us."
Having said this, he still looked back worriedly. Except for Gu Dashi who was lying unconscious on the ground, all the family members were there.
"Mom, you guys hide at the back. No matter what happens, don't come forward."
Li Cuicui gritted her teeth and pulled the young children behind her, "Don't worry, mother knows what to do."
Gu Wenheng glanced at Gu Yuanlei next to him. This guy was actually standing in front of the Lan family. It seemed that he was really hopeless.
Jin Qianqian was standing at the back, so she could naturally see the positions here more clearly. She became defensive and quietly moved behind Gu Wenheng.
"Awoo..." Wolves in groups of three or two were staring at them on the top of the hill, howling non-stop, making a chilling sound.
Many of the timid ones could not hold back and cried out in despair and fear, which made the people guarding behind the fire even more panicked. This was different from the legend, as it was a face-to-face confrontation.
Especially those pairs of cold and greedy eyes made everyone involuntarily tighten their weapons.
"Jin, come here quickly." Li Cuicui found that Jin Qianqian was also holding a weapon and following behind Gu Wenheng, and immediately shouted in a low voice.
Jin Qianqian turned around and shook her head slightly, "Mom, don't worry, I won't cause any more trouble."
If there weren't so many people around, she would have wanted to hand the electric baton to Gu Wenheng who was standing in front of her. She just remembered that when she was doing wholesale in the past, she thought that if she opened a shopping mall in the future, she might hire security guards, so she just threw it in.
"Why are there hyenas?" Gu Wenheng recognized the skinny and weak wild dogs that appeared on the other side. He had only seen them in books before, but he didn't expect to meet them here.
With so many social animals appearing here at the same time, it seems that today is really the most unlucky day.
"hyena?"
Gu Yuantu had never heard of them before and thought that these were just ordinary wild dogs.
"These guys are recorded in books. They are notorious and a bit insidious when hunting. Everyone try not to let them get close to you. Everyone, turn up the fire in front of you and try not to confront them." Gu Wenheng could only cite what was recorded in the book.
He didn't even need to explain, many people had already covered their mouths, trying their best to suppress the nausea that was about to be unstoppable.
Unlike the wolves, these hyenas were not as vigilant in confronting them. They had already rushed to the area where they had rested before, dragging the bodies of the robbers lying there and tearing them apart in front of so many people.
