Now, Lu Xuan would no longer have any doubts. This low sound could never be the sound of the wind in nature.
"That's the sound. This... doesn't seem like the sound of a wild wolf."
Leng Mengyao was also listening carefully at this time, but he shook his head in the end.
"It's not from a wild wolf..."
Lu Xuan also firmly denied that the strange sound came from a wild wolf.
Since landing on the island, the animal that his group had seen most frequently, besides fish, was the wild wolf, so they were still very familiar with the sounds of the wild wolf. However, the sound they heard at this time was obviously fundamentally different from the slightly creepy howling of the wild wolf.
"You go back to sleep. I'll bring the sleeping bag over here and light a bonfire. We'll sleep here tonight."
It was pitch black outside, so Lu Xuan naturally wouldn't take the huge and unknown risk to go out and explore the source of the strange sound. The best way at the moment was to light a bonfire and guard the exit, so that he could basically ensure the absolute safety of his own cave.
"Then I'll guard it with you, and we'll take turns on duty."
When Leng Mengyao heard that Lu Xuan was going to keep watch alone, he immediately volunteered to join, and the two took turns on duty.
Moreover, the girl didn't care whether Lu Xuan agreed or not, and she dragged the bedding over by herself, and also brought Lu Xuan's sleeping bag.
Lu Xuan couldn't persuade this girl, so the two of them simply lit a bonfire at the entrance of the back cave and lay side by side to keep watch.
But just as he lay down and hadn't chatted for a few words, someone suddenly slapped him from behind.
Lu Xuan was almost scared to death...
"Mr. Yin, don't you know that scaring others can kill them?"
Fortunately, Yin Yichen retreated quickly, otherwise, with Lu Xuan's conditioned reflex of defense and counterattack, the harpoon in his hand would have been delivered directly.
"Haha, I've noticed something's up with you two. Look, I caught you red-handed. Tell me how you're going to bribe me, or I'll report you."
This girl is really talented. She didn't sleep in the middle of the night and came here specifically to "catch the adulterer". The key is that she even thought of "bribing". It's really amazing that she could think of it...
"Who did you learn this from? Can we learn a little? Can we keep watch here?"
Lu Xuan really had no way to deal with this girl, because she didn't play by the rules.
"Tsk... Night watch, who would believe that? What's out there? Let me take a look..."
“Ahh…”
Yin Yichen was still muttering to himself when suddenly, a low roar came from outside the cave again.
"What...what's that sound..." Now, the usually carefree Yin Yichen was so scared that she dared not say a word, and immediately hid behind Lu Xuan.
"I'm not sure what kind of animal it is, but it's not friendly, so we're on guard here. I'm afraid wolves aren't the only ones posing a threat to us on this deserted island."
Lu Xuan raised the harpoon in his hand vigilantly and carefully observed the situation outside the cave through the only barrier, the bamboo raft.
“Ahh…”
At this moment, the low voice became clearer.
Leng Mengyao and Yin Yichen couldn't help but take several steps back.
"Handsome boy, this...this thing won't rush in, will it?"
After all, Yin Yichen is a girl. No matter how calm she appears on weekdays, she will be timid when she encounters danger. At this time, the girl has lost her previous good mood. She hides tightly behind Lu Xuan and almost buries her head in Lu Xuan's arms.
"It shouldn't be that bad. We have a bamboo door and a bonfire..."
In fact, Lu Xuan himself was not confident enough to say this, because at the moment, he didn't even know who his opponent was. As the saying goes, the unknown is the most frightening.
"Just wait..."
Yin Yichen suddenly seemed to remember something, turned around and trotted back to the cave.
Just when Lu Xuan and Leng Mengyao hadn't figured out what this girl was doing, Yin Yichen came back jogging, followed by Shen Keyin.
The two men were holding the hand-cranked generator in their hands.
"Lu Xuan, Meng Yao... Yi Chen said you found a monster?"
Shen Keyin looked at Lu Xuan with horror, with marks on her face, obviously having been abruptly woken up by Yin Yichen.
"Ahem...it's not a monster, it's probably a wild animal."
Lu Xuan was also convinced and quickly explained. He was afraid that if he didn't explain to Shen Keyin, Yin Yichen would invent the Terminator T1000. This girl's imagination was no exaggeration.
"Handsome boy, take a picture of where you want to go. I'll shake it. I want to see what kind of monster is keeping us awake so late at night."
Obviously, Yin Yichen's three-minute fear period has passed. What's more, there are four people here now. With more people, the previous fear has dissipated for the most part. The girl has only one idea at the moment, which is to catch the monster that disturbed her sweet dream.
Without Lu Xuan's instructions, Yin Yichen started shaking on her own.
Soon, a dazzling beam of white light shone out from the side of the generator set.
"A little to the right, a little more to the right..."
Since he couldn't stop this girl, and he also wanted to find out what was outside the cave, Lu Xuan simply let the girl go.
When the beam of light passed through the mottled bamboo raft and shot out of the cave, Lu Xuan lay tightly on the bamboo raft with a harpoon in his hand, and his attention followed the movement of the position illuminated by the white beam of light vigilantly.
It has to be said that the power of this hand-cranked generator set is quite considerable. As long as someone continues to crank the handle, it can emit a beam of light that is enough to illuminate an area of three or four square meters.
"There's nothing on the right. Keep moving to the left and raise it a little higher."
As an observer, Lu Xuan constantly directed Shen Keyin behind him to move the direction of the generator set based on his own judgment.
But it's strange that the low roar disappeared ever since I showed the generator set here.
No matter how Lu Xuan searched, it was quiet outside the cave, as if no living creature had appeared at all.
"Lu Xuan, could it be that this thing is afraid of light?"
At this time, Leng Mengyao, who had been observing quietly and had never spoken, spoke.
"Yichen, stop shaking..."
Hearing Leng Mengyao's words, Lu Xuan agreed with it and immediately stopped Yin Yichen.
When the hand-cranked generator stopped working, it became pitch black outside the cave again, with only the campfire inside the cave still flickering.
“Ahhh, ahhh…”
Less than ten seconds after the lights went out, that deep roar reappeared...
"Lu Xuan, it...it seems to be coming towards us..."
As the low voice got closer, everyone seemed to hear heavy footsteps.
Just as Leng Mengyao said, something was rushing towards him...
