Chapter 39: Wolves Appear
The group spent most of the day cleaning up and finally pushed all the clutter out of the house. If it could be used as firewood, it could be used as firewood. If it couldn't be used, it could only be thrown away. Looking at the empty room, Jiang He stroked his chin and said, "We'll have to get a blackboard later, preferably a bigger one."
"That's easy. We'll find the lame Liu at the entrance of the village and ask him to make a blackboard. We can also ask him to make the tables, chairs and benches as well." Liu Chunyi said hurriedly.
"It would be nice if I had a computer or something in modern times. However, in this era, there are no computers or the Internet." Jiang He looked at the spacious room and couldn't help but mutter to himself.
"Village chief - village chief, something bad has happened." There was a sudden knock on the door, followed by someone's exclamation.
"What's the matter? Why are you making so much noise? Can't you see that you are busy?" Liu Chunye frowned. He was still doing important work.
"Village chief, why don't you listen first? What if there is something urgent?" Zhao Xiaoxue asked. As soon as she heard it, she knew that the person outside must have encountered something. Otherwise, such a person would never lose his composure like this.
"Village chief, Qu Zi's family just came to tell me that their Erniu is missing, and he also heard a wolf howling." As soon as the door opened, a panting figure rushed in.
"What? A wolf howling? How is that possible?" Liu Chun'e's face changed drastically. "It's only August or September now, how could there be a wolf? Aiguo, did you hear me wrong?"
"How could we have heard it wrong? Everyone near Quzi's house heard it, and the wolf cry came from the Dead Man's Ditch." The young villager named Aiguo said while panting, and when Jiang He, Lu Mingfeng and Yang Guojun heard each other mention the Dead Man's Ditch, they all looked at each other and lowered their brows.
"Quick, get the hunting rifle." When Liu Chun heard this, he was shocked. "Quick, it is impossible for the wolves to come down the mountain for no reason at this time. Someone in the village must have moved something." You know, wolves live in groups, it is impossible for only one to stay outside, and in July and August, there is still plenty of food for the wolf pack. They can't come down the mountain for no reason, which means that someone must have brought something down.
"Who would go to that place called Dead Man's Valley? Only the daughter of Liu Xi's family. Could it be that the village chief thought that their daughter brought something from the mountain? Wouldn't this be life-threatening?" Aiguo's face was almost covered with fear.
Liu Chun's face didn't look good either, but he remained calm. "We don't know the situation yet, don't talk nonsense."
Actually, he was not sure when he said this, because the crazy girl in Liu Xi's family was the only one who could enter the Valley of the Dead. Although she was still crazy now, who knew if she would really take the wolf cub out.
He did not even have time to say hello to Jiang He and the others before he hurriedly led them out, leaving a few people watching them leave silently. Yang Guojun whispered, "Gao Youhui, is he really that capable?"
Zhao Xiaoxue heard him muttering with her sharp ears, "What did you just say?"
Upon hearing this, Yang Guojun hurriedly asked, "I wonder if these people can save the child."
"Why don't we go and take a look together?" Zhao Xiaoxue suggested.
