Chapter 46 47. Against
Many people avoided looking at the cruel scene in front of them, and some even lowered their heads and looked at the ground.
"Look ahead," Gu Wenheng gritted his teeth. At this critical moment, he tried hard to suppress his nausea, but he didn't dare to relax at all and stared at the front.
Then he tilted his head slightly and said, "Qianqian, follow me closely in a moment."
"Well," Jin Qianqian only dared to look at Gu Wenheng's back and hinted, "Don't worry about me, I can handle it."
Gu Wenheng pursed his lips and stopped talking, hoping that the circle of fire in front of him could drive back these hungry wolves.
"Help," cries for help suddenly came from outside the encirclement. Everyone's heart tightened and their eyes were involuntarily drawn over.
"Those are the gangs of robbers from before. They are surrounded by wolves." In order to prevent them from escaping, these people were tied up tightly there.
Even though we know that these people have committed many evil things, at this moment, all we feel is sympathy and a sense of powerlessness.
Hearing the wailing sounds, everyone became more and more panicked, and some people even covered their mouths and cried.
"Be quiet, everyone. If you keep making noise, you will attract the wolves." Gu Sanbu didn't want these people to affect the villagers standing in front to resist, so he quickly spoke out to stop them.
"They are coming." Not long after the cries for help stopped, the wolves that had been eyeing the fire eagerly walked towards it and gathered around it.
The wolves bared their sharp fangs and stuck out their long blood-red tongues, looking arrogant as if they were patrolling their territory, not taking the humans who were confronting them with weapons seriously at all.
Gu Wenheng and the others also hurriedly added firewood to the fire, hoping that this wall of fire could stop them.
"Awoo," bursts of shouting came from a distance. The wolves that were originally in confrontation suddenly became irritable. Some of them even ran forward without fear of the fire wall and jumped in. Many people screamed continuously.
Jin Qianqian had never thought that one day she would live such a thrilling life. She had just hurt someone during the day, and now she had to face these beasts.
The people who were originally huddled together also became even more chaotic in order to avoid the wolf that suddenly broke in.
You push it this way and I push it that way, and soon it falls into a pile.
Gu Wenheng held Jin Qianqian tightly with one hand free. Now he not only had to prevent the wolves outside from entering, but also had to distract himself to prevent his back from being attacked.
Jin Qianqian turned around and leaned against Gu Wenheng, "You pay attention to the front, I'll watch the back."
Gu Wenheng felt the warmth coming from his back, "Then be careful."
Seeing that the people around them were too busy to notice them, Jin Qianqian handed the electric baton she had found to Gu Wenheng, "This thing is more suitable for close combat than a wooden cannon."
What's more important is that this thing has no wounds, so even if you don't take care of the aftermath, there is no need to worry about arousing suspicion from others.
When Jin Qianqian thought of this, she squinted her eyes and looked at the ox cart that was already moving restlessly behind her. There were plastic barrels on it that did not belong to this dynasty. If she could find a chance to take them away, it would be a solution to a future problem.
There was no time for them to think so much. Once the first wolf came in, there would be the second and the third.
Gu Wenheng also quickly met the enemy. Looking at the sharp wolf's mouth coming towards him, he forcefully pushed Jin Qianqian away from behind him, grabbed the machete in his hand, and rushed forward.
The cunning wolf twisted its body in the air and avoided his attack.
By the time it landed, it was already in an attacking posture.
Gu Wenheng knew that he was being targeted, and Gu Yuanlei, who was originally standing next to him, had run away, leaving a space for Gu Wenheng and the intruding wolf.
Jin Qianqian also held the machete in her hand, trying her best not to tremble.
The wolf just glanced at Jin Qianqian with contempt, its eyes flashing with ferocity, and stared closely at Gu Wenheng right in front of it, apparently holding a grudge against him.
Gu Wenheng didn't even have time to catch his breath. The wolf slightly bent its hind legs, stretched out its front legs, and leaped into the air, heading towards Gu Wenheng.
Jin Qianqian gritted her teeth, trying not to scream out and disturb Gu Wenheng. She quickly replaced the machete in her hand with a dark electric baton.
Gu Wenheng looked at the sharp wolf claws and could only roll quickly on the ground, narrowly avoiding the oncoming attack.
At this time, Gu Yuanjin also slowly approached with his machete in hand, wanting to give the wolf a fatal blow while it was not paying attention.
But he was still careless. The cunning wolf would not suffer so easily. When his machete was about to hit it, it dodged swiftly.
But this also angered it, and its attacks became more fierce and violent each time.
Jin Qianqian tried to get closer several times, but Gu Wenheng got ahead and blocked her off.
During several confrontations, at the moment when his arm was scratched, the electric baton in Gu Wenheng's hand finally touched the wolf's body. The wolf fell to the ground and convulsed instantly due to the electric shock.
Gu Wenheng and Gu Yuanjin didn't give it a chance to get up, and they swung their machetes at it at the same time.
When the threat was completely gone, the two brothers smiled at each other and quickly joined the battle again.
Just when Gu Wenheng felt that his hands were numb and his whole body was weak, he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves.
Soon someone shouted, "Someone is coming, someone is coming to rescue us."
Not long after the words fell, everyone saw a rain of arrows flying towards the wolf pack, and the hyenas and wolves that were still fighting there quickly fled away.
As the sound of horse hooves approached, everyone saw a large group of tall horses, with some young men in fancy clothes, appear in front of everyone.
"There really are wolves," said Bai Jinglie, the leader, pulling the reins in his hand, "It seems the news is true."
"Master Bai, this must be true news before I dare to inform you," said a middle-aged man in yamen uniform smiling flatteringly, "Do you think we should let them take action and keep these wolves?"
Bai Jinglie looked around with disgust, "Then everyone, move faster, and remember not to hurt your fur."
"These people are so useless. There are so many casualties among such a small number of wolves. It is right not to let them enter the city." Bai Jinglie felt uncomfortable with the smell in the air. He fanned his nose with his hands and said, "Hurry up and see where the leader is. I have to keep it and show it to my good brothers when I go back. I also want them to appreciate the great achievements of Young Master Bai."
But these people had just arrived and had no idea where the leader of the wolves was hiding, so they all thought that the ones who looked stronger were the ones.
"It's impossible to see them at all, and they are always moving." Under the cover of night, even if there were so many bonfires on the official road here, they were not enough for them to distinguish them.
"Hey, do any of you know where the leader wolf is? If you point it out to us, our Master Bai will reward you."
