Chapter 44 Run! It's a pack of wolves!



The hole I made this morning is still there.

They never expected to come back after being away for so long.

Half a day's work for nothing.

Little Yuzu patted her flat little tummy and looked at Luo Li expectantly with her bright eyes: "Brother, since we're already here, let's have lunch before we leave?"

She has come to terms with reality; being well-fed is more important.

"Can."

Luo Li rebuilt the stove that she had just taken down that morning and put in dry firewood to start a fire.

"Cheng Cheng, please sit here."

Xiao Ye placed the bag next to Cheng Cheng and said to Xiao Youzi, "Xiao Youzi, shall we go to the river and catch some more fish?"

"Sure!"

Little Yuzi readily agreed, quickly took off her shoes, and took her precious basin into the river.

Luo Li arranged the dried fish, enough for four people.

Soon, the aroma wafted out.

"It smells so good, I'm hungry!"

Little Yuzi couldn't wait to pick up a piece of fish and start eating.

After eating and drinking their fill, everyone packed the remaining dried fish into sealed bags.

This bag was redeemed after completing a task.

They packed two large bags of dried fish, filled them with water, and the four of them were ready to go.

Let's go.

"etc!"

Standing on tiptoe, Little Yuzu squinted and looked over, as if she had discovered something.

After putting down her backpack, Xiaoyouzi pointed to a spot not far away: "Brother, that looks like tiger whiskers."

"What?"

The three of them looked in the direction Little Yuzu was pointing and saw black flowers swaying gently in the breeze.

The flower was particularly peculiar, its shape resembling a tiger's face, with many whiskers swaying in the wind.

Luo Li glanced at the unlit pictures on her phone: "It should be."

"Isn't this something that comes without any effort?"

If they hadn't gotten lost and returned, they wouldn't have been able to find their mission objective.

Cheng Cheng was both amused and exasperated.

"Little Yuzu is amazing, she's our little lucky charm!"

Little Yuzu is so lucky, she even discovered this.

Otherwise, everyone would be searching themselves to death in the dense forest.

"Let's go! Let's take some pictures!"

I crouched down next to the tiger's whiskers, listening to the sound of the mission being completed.

"The supplies will be delivered in half an hour."

After waiting for more than half an hour, the four of them took the new supplies and stepped into the dense forest again.

A day later, everyone was given a new mission—to find the single-root grass—and got lost in the dense forest once again.

The sky darkened, and Xiao Ye wiped the sweat from his forehead. He found a relatively spacious spot and said, "Let's set up our tents here and rest for a bit. There's not enough room for two tents, so please make do."

"good."

The group put down their backpacks and set up the tent together.

Little Yuzu looked around to see what was going on.

The place was secluded and quiet, but Little Yuzu felt that something was off.

Danger seemed to be right beside her, and her heart pounded.

Its round eyes darted around, looking everywhere.

Suddenly, Xiaoyouzi froze on the spot, her eyes fixed on the dark figure that appeared not far away.

The dark figure was hidden in the jungle and could not be seen unless you looked closely.

Little Yuzu took a step back and then stopped moving.

The dark figure swayed upon hearing the noise, seemingly raising its head to reveal a pair of terrifying, gleaming green eyes.

Yes, it's a wolf!

Little Yuzu bit her lower lip, her brows furrowed, and she murmured, "Oh no, we've run into a wolf."

He looked around warily, but there was no one else in sight.

Little Yuzu breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Wolves are solitary animals, so it's easier to deal with a lone wolf.

At this moment, the wolf slightly bent its hind legs and took a step forward with its front legs, assuming a downward lunge posture.

Its green eyes emitted a deep, menacing light.

"Woo-woo!" It didn't pounce immediately, but let out a few low growls and stared at the little pomelo for a while, seemingly assessing the little pomelo's dangerous value.

"Brother! Hurry up and pack up the tent!" Little Yuzu shouted loudly, sensing the approaching danger.

The three stopped what they were doing, and Luo Li asked, "What's wrong?"

"Wolves! This is wolf territory!"

Luo Li and the others exchanged a glance and hurriedly packed their things away.

"Awoo!"

Little Yuzu's sudden scream made the wolf's fur stand on end.

The wolf howled to the sky.

Oh no!

Little Yuzi's face darkened.

My master once said that when a wolf howls, it is calling its comrades.

In other words, this wolf is not solitary, but lives in a pack!

In the blink of an eye, dark shadows rippled through the jungle.

Soon a dozen or so wolves appeared, appearing as a dense mass of green dots from a distance.

It was as if I had suddenly dreamt of opening a tent and seeing a group of crocodiles.

"Is brother all packed?"

Little Yuzu watched as the wolf pack finished gathering and gradually formed an encirclement to surround and attack the three of them.

She frowned.

There were too many wolves, and she couldn't take care of them all, so she had to find a way to escape.

"All packed up!"

Little Yuzu shouted, "Run!"

These words were like a signal; she turned and ran.

"Help!"

Cheng Cheng shouted for help and ran as fast as he could.

His leg had only recently recovered, and such strenuous exercise would likely ruin it soon.

The moment Xiaoyouzi and the others turned around, the wolf launched its attack and started running.

A dozen or so wolves chased after them relentlessly.

—Ahhh, help! Don't point the camera at those green-eyed people!

—I'm terrified! It's so scary!

—Run! They're catching up!

The group ran for an unknown amount of time, but they eventually escaped the wolves' territory.

The wolf did not pursue them further.

Little Yuzu looked around at the place in front of her.

It's very wide, there are no trees along this stretch, and there's a cliff not far away.

"We should be able to rest here."

Cheng Cheng knelt on the ground, panting heavily. Sweat slid down his forehead, dripped from his chin, and disappeared into the dust.

At this moment, Cheng Cheng looked both disheveled and sexy.

His fans were screaming in the live chat.

After the tent was set up, Luo Li left the camera's view and answered a phone call.

Agent Zhao Bin cheerfully recounted Lin Mu's story.

"Who helped us?"

Zhao Bin was unclear about the specifics of the matter, and could only say, "I don't know either, but that company's stock price plummeted today, and the Luo Group was involved. You wouldn't happen to be a distant relative of the president of the Luo Group, would you?"

Luo Li did not speak.

Does my brother know?

Impossible, my brother never interferes in domestic affairs.

It must have been Uncle Ye who did it.

After hanging up the phone, Luo Li went back to her tent to sleep.

The next morning.

Little Yuzu struggled to get up and eat breakfast.

She squinted, feeling drowsy.

Cheng Cheng chuckled to himself as he took photos of Xiao Youzi with his wristband.

"Little Yuzu, if you keep sleeping, you'll be stuck here all day."

As soon as Luo Li spoke, Xiao Youzi immediately came to her senses.

She stuffed breakfast into her mouth, her eyes darting around.

Suddenly, Xiaoyouzi's gaze locked onto a spot, and she tugged at Luo Li's sleeve: "Brother, look what's over there..."
