So after the wolves started attacking, another strange scene appeared among the crowd.
Li An didn't fight the wolf, but shouted loudly: "Daughter, don't do it, Daddy is here to protect you."
But before Li An could get to Li Mengyue, a wolf rushed over and almost made Li An fall to his death.
"Dad, if you're scared, just stand still."
Li Mengyue fought off the wolf that wanted to attack her while talking to Li An through the air.
Seeing that his daughter was disobedient, Li An stamped his feet in anxiety. He had no choice but to pick up the weapon in his hand and fight with the wolf.
Under the command of the leader wolf, there were only forty or fifty wolves coming at once, so when more than a dozen people besieged one wolf, they were not at a disadvantage. Instead, the villagers became more courageous and thought that the wolves were not that scary and could still be killed.
Of course, wolves are very capable to survive in the jungle. When they first started exploring, the death of four or five of their companions aroused their ferocity, and they bared their teeth and grinned, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
A wolf seized the opportunity and wanted to bite Li Mengyue.
However, Li Mengyue picked up the iron rod and swung it directly at the wolf's waist. The poor wolf fell to the ground without even a whimper, and there was no movement.
But Li Mengyue's behavior completely angered the wolf leader.
The leader wolf stood not far away, looking at Li Mengyue fiercely, and then let out a howl, issuing an order to the wolf pack.
Seven or eight wolves jumped over and tried to besiege Li Mengyue.
Li An was so frightened when he saw this scene that his eyes were about to burst open. He couldn't help but shout loudly: "Girl, be careful."
Li Mengyue swung the iron rod in her hand and flew up. Everyone could only see the afterimage. Soon everyone heard a "whoosh" sound, and then there was no movement. Li Mengyue was surrounded by wolves lying all over the place.
The leader wolf saw that he would gain nothing by continuing to move forward.
“Ouch!”
Led by the leader, the thirty or so surviving wolves quickly retreated.
Li Mengyue watched the wolves run away. Although she didn't want to chase them, she was not going to let the leader go.
"call out!"
“Ouch—”
A long arrow hit the wolf's hip, and it limped away.
After no longer seeing the wolves, many villagers sat on the ground in fear.
Li Niu patted his chest, took a deep breath, and exhaled, then said in a trembling voice, "Phew, I was so scared! I thought I was going to die today."
"Who says it isn't?"
"If it weren't for Li Mengyue, we would have all been in trouble today."
"Yes, Li Mengyue is so amazing."
"She looked so weak, but I didn't expect her to have such explosive power. A wild boar weighing several kilograms was completely powerless in Li Mengyue's hands."
After the crisis was resolved, the villagers all started to discuss the matter, and of course, Li Mengyue was the one they talked about the most.
It was Li Mengyue's move that made everyone have a new understanding of Li Mengyue.
Before, they just thought that Li Mengyue was much smarter than them, a group of peasants, because she was doing the fried locust business. Every household in the village benefited from it and lived a life where they could have two meals a day.
Not only did their village's income double, but the surrounding villages also joined in catching locusts and sold them for a lot of money.
The key is to catch as many locusts as possible, as long as they are brought to the Li family, they can be sold, so there is no need to worry about working in vain.
As a result of the locust incident, Li Mengyue gained a good reputation in Xinghua Village and the surrounding villages. Many people no longer wanted to mention Li Mengyue's loss of innocence.
