Chenchenfeng squatted beside the footprints, a cautious look on his face. Seeing this, everyone's heart suddenly sank. They knew that this must be a bad situation.
"Uncle... look..."
Turning around, he looked at the hunter beside him and asked for his opinion.
"You confirmed it too?"
"I've confirmed it, but I'm not sure if it's the answer deep in my heart." Shen Chenfeng hesitated for a while.
"Yeah, that's what you think."
The hunter looked into the distance and knew that this was not a good thing. Or rather, the lives of the villagers were threatened!
“Brother Shen, what do you mean by that?”
"That's right, don't hide it, we all want to know."
"Yeah! What on earth is this? Is the situation getting worse?"
The patrolmen around them couldn't help but ask more questions, all of them feeling extremely anxious. One reason was that the burden on them had become even heavier, and another was that they didn't want to be left in the dark; they wanted a definitive answer.
"Speak now! Let me remind everyone, don't think that just because life is peaceful now, everything will be stable. There is never absolute safety in the mountains."
The hunter sighed. He didn't know how much more blood and gore would ensue this time. The last time he heard of it was fifty years ago. He wondered if his village would be affected this time.
"What on earth is it? It's so vague."
“Brother Shen, what exactly did you and Uncle Wu talk about?”
Everyone around was full of questions, as they had no idea what the two people were saying in code.
“Dad…Dad…”
Chen Yun blinked his eyes, and looked at his father with some curiosity. It was so strange, what on earth was he talking about? In his previous life, he didn't seem to remember anything like this. Was it a mistake, or was it because the memory was too distant and a little blurry? Or had he changed, and everything had changed with him?
"Be good...Dad has something to say to the uncles."
Shen Chenfeng didn't know that Shen Yun also had a thirst for knowledge. He comforted his daughter and looked at the villagers who came over to find out the results.
"The Wolf King patrols the mountains..."
After saying this, everyone gasped. They had never expected this to be the result. This... this... this... They couldn't help but take two steps back. This...
"No way? Why are we so unlucky?"
"Oh... Oh my God! What should we do? What should we do..."
"It's over... It's over... I hope they don't come to the village."
"The cordon must be extended. It must be extended... The village entrance and the village end need to be patrolled intensively."
The people around them were in an uproar. They had never imagined that they would encounter such a thing that they would never encounter in their lifetime. Was it just their luck or their bad luck? At this moment, no one dared to imagine what would happen in the future. They just hoped to be more vigilant and feel at ease.
"What is Wolf King Patrol?"
Chen Yun couldn't help but parrot what he heard, then looked at his father curiously.
"You little girl, why do you have so many questions?" Chen Chenfeng smiled and tapped his daughter's head with a ding-dong, a look of relief on his face. Now that they knew, they should face it bravely and make full preparations. He didn't believe that man could not conquer nature.
"Why?" Shen Yun continued to ask, and she would not give up until she got an answer.
"When the Wolf King patrols the mountains, it means all the wolves in the pack are out. If they're disciplined, it's a false alarm. If they encounter a vicious Wolf King, the village will be in trouble. They have designated their territory, so this means they'll come and use the routes in this area."
The old hunter on the side explained the routine to everyone. He was praying in his heart that there must be a disciplined wolf pack, otherwise, there would be a big battle.
“…”
Everyone gasped, and only Shen Yun was confused. She didn't think the wolves were scary. Besides, they had encountered and killed so many wolves, hadn't they? Why should they still worry and be afraid?
"Alright, alright, let's spread the word and have everyone on alert. Also, let's spread the word to the surrounding villages so everyone can keep an eye out for each other."
Shen Chenfeng gave serious instructions. He didn't want to see the thing he least wanted to see happen.
“I understand, Brother Shen, don’t worry!”
"Well, Brother Shen, don't worry! We will make arrangements. The village should also be on alert, and everyone should be vigilant."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, knowing the measures to be taken, and felt more at ease. No matter what, if it came, we would face it; if it didn't, there was no need to panic. Everyone was here, and those around us were family members we could rely on.
"Okay, we should go back."
Chen Chenfeng placed his daughter on his shoulders and carried her home to think about countermeasures. The Wolf King was patrolling the mountains, so they had to be fully prepared.
"Well, let's go to the village chief's house later. I have something to discuss with you, the village chief, and the elders."
Hunter Shen Wushu looked at Shen Chenfeng. They were old, and it was time to hand over the important tasks to the young people. Shen Chenfeng was a good successor, and he also hoped to see the Shen family and Xiashan Village grow and become stronger in his lifetime.
"Yeah, okay."
Shen Chenfeng nodded, feeling more cautious. Life was becoming increasingly difficult. From the famine of previous years to the current chaos and the Wolf King's patrols, Shen Chenfeng felt that life wasn't that simple.
"Uncle Wu, Uncle Wu, can we go and listen?"
"Yes! Uncle Wu, what are you guys going to discuss? Can we go and listen?"
"Brother Shen, take me with you!"
Several people on the side were eager to make a move. They all looked at Shen Chenfeng, hoping to go and witness it together. No matter what was said, they were quite interested and wanted to get involved.
"Anyone who wants to go can go. This time we're mainly discussing how to deal with the Wolf King patrolling the mountains."
Uncle Shen Wu waved his hand. There was nothing to be ashamed of. Besides, the matters discussed this time and the way to deal with them would eventually have to be informed to these people. Their presence would save some time in informing them, allowing everyone to respond and prepare quickly. They couldn't let things get worse; they had to adopt a positive attitude.
"That's great, really great."
"Well, let's go back quickly and tell everyone the news!"
"Yes, yes, notify everyone to go to the village chief's house for a meeting."
After looking at each other, everyone shouted in unison, extremely excited.
