"Lu Xuan, have you discovered anything?..."
"Shh..."
Shen Keyin looked up at Lu Xuan and was about to ask something when she was interrupted by Lu Xuan's gesture of silence.
Seeing Lu Xuan like this, the three girls looked at him nervously and covered their mouths tightly.
“Ouch…”
At this moment, several low howls came from the jungle in the south.
Lu Xuan, who was still lying on the banyan tree, also saw two swift gray figures flying from right to left.
This voice was very familiar to Lu Xuan and his group.
There were wolves, and more than one.
“Ahh…”
Just as Lu Xuan was still vigilantly observing the movements of the two wild wolves that suddenly appeared, the familiar howling of a wild boar once again reached everyone's ears.
Lu Xuan didn't expect that either they wouldn't show up, or if they did, "two teams" would suddenly appear.
"Hey, throw me the rope and you all climb up."
This time, there were both wild wolves and wild boars. Lu Xuan glanced around his big banyan tree.
The tree has lush branches and leaves, and a thick trunk. Not only can it accommodate the four of us, it can also accommodate ten more people.
To ensure safety, Lu Xuan decided to place all three girls on the tree trunk first.
"Handsome boy, go on."
Yin Yichen opened Lu Xuan's backpack, took out a piece of hemp rope that Lu Xuan had kept in the backpack, and then swung it hard, throwing one end of the hemp rope to Lu Xuan above her head.
Lu Xuan grabbed one end of the hemp rope and tied it to the tree trunk.
"Come up one by one."
After tying the bundle firmly, Lu Xuan waved to the girls under the tree.
When it comes to new things like this, Yin Yichen is always the most enthusiastic one, and she was the first to grab the hemp rope without hesitation.
One had to admit that this girl's "hands-on ability" was indeed beyond the ordinary. Lu Xuan barely exerted any strength, and the girl climbed up by herself, pulling on the hemp rope.
After coming up, he still had enough strength to pull Chen Keyin and Leng Mengyao up with Lu Xuan.
"Lu Xuan, is that a wild wolf? It can't climb trees, right?"
After the four of them found a place to lie on the tree trunk, Shen Keyin soon saw a gray-haired wild wolf through the gaps between the leaves.
"Trees are safe. Wild wolves don't climb trees."
"What about the wild boar?"
"No, so we'll just stay here and wait for the right time."
Lu Xuan had already thought about it. Although he came here to catch wild boars, the current situation had changed, so he would not take the risk of joining the melee. Instead of fighting one against two, it would be better to wait and see how the situation changes. Maybe he could gain the upper hand.
"The fight has begun, the fight has begun..."
Just as Lu Xuan expected, the pig and two wolves in front were already fighting.
Logically speaking, let alone just two wild wolves, even two more would be no match for the wild boar. Only a significant number of wild wolves, working in a group with a clear division of labor, would attack a wild boar. Generally speaking, two or three lone wolves would never attack a wild boar without authorization.
However, the current situation is that the wild boar is already injured, bleeding profusely, and its mobility is significantly affected. Therefore, this is why the two wild wolves have the idea of taking the initiative to attack.
The three girls had never seen a wild boar and a wild wolf fight, so they were both excited and nervous. They all hugged the tree trunk in front of them tightly, watching the fierce battle in front of them intently.
The only thing Lu Xuan felt sorry about now was that he had no arrows. If he really found arrows in the yacht, he could just wait until the opponent was about to win and then shoot a few arrows from a distance, and he would be able to get the final victory without any effort.
Now that he only had cold weapons for close combat, how to choose the right time became the most important issue.
"Handsome boy, who's stronger, the wolf or the wild boar? I'm betting on the wild boar!"
Yin Yichen, who loves to watch the fun, looked like she was watching a show. Looking at the girl, she wished she could open a casino on a deserted island.
"Lu Xuan, this wolf meat can't be eaten, right?"
Leng Mengyao was thinking more about the impact that the other party would have on him after the outcome was decided.
"It's not that they can't eat it. Pork is definitely the first choice. The higher the level of the carnivore, the more toxins accumulate in its body. You've probably heard of bioaccumulation, right?"
"I know that, biologically, in a food chain, lower organisms absorb substances from the environment and accumulate them in their bodies, becoming a source of food for higher organisms. When higher organisms prey on these lower organisms, the enriched substances also enter their bodies, passing on and amplifying them step by step up the food chain."
Lu Xuan didn't expect that after he said it casually, Chen Keyin actually taught his group some biological knowledge in a very serious manner.
"No wonder humans only eat pigs, cattle and sheep, and not tigers and lions..." Yin Yichen is very good at expanding her thinking and thinks quite far ahead.
"Besides, the book says these higher animals don't seem to taste good either. Anyway, let's keep our eyes on that wild boar."
Lu Xuan never thought about eating wild wolves from the beginning to the end. The main purpose of this trip was to catch the wild boar.
Under Lu Xuan's command, the four men remained motionless and watched the two teams of beasts fighting.
What everyone didn't expect was that this wild boar was really powerful. Even though it was covered in blood, it still had the strength to fight. As time went by, it even gradually gained the upper hand. On the contrary, the two wild wolves seemed to be getting more and more cowardly as the fight went on, and it looked like they were even considering retreating.
"The wild boar is so powerful. We underestimated it."
The more Yin Yichen looked, the more excited she became, and from time to time she would snatch the telescope from Lu Xuan's hand.
"If it weren't for these two wild wolves, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to catch up with this wild boar. We were a little careless."
Leng Mengyao reflected on himself while watching the battle between pigs and wolves.
"Huh, that's right. It seems we'll have to outsmart this wild boar from now on. Yin Yichen, you need to upgrade your traps when you have time."
Lu Xuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He had indeed underestimated the wild boar's strength. He had thought that he could easily find the wild boar's carcass during this trip, but now he realized that he had been too naive. He and his group had been lucky last night. If the wild boar had tried to attack again, he would have been in big trouble.
"Lu Xuan, the wild wolf seems to have escaped..."
Just as Lu Xuan and Leng Mengyao were still reflecting on themselves, the fierce battle in the jungle ahead seemed to be about to be decided.
“Ahh…”
The wild boar roared at the two wolves, and the two wolves completely lost their will to fight, turned around abruptly and ran away.
As the wolf ran away, the wild boar, which was originally aggressive, finally couldn't hold on anymore. It staggered a few steps, and its limbs went limp, and it fell down in the jungle.
"Okay, it's our turn!"
Seeing this, Lu Xuan became excited. Here came the opportunity!
