Song Shiwei also understood that people must have a strong will to survive. Captain Zheng probably was afraid of dragging them down!
"Brother Zheng, don't worry, you'll be fine. If anything happens to you, Uncle Li and I will be the only ones left in Death Valley. Let alone saving Tingyue and the others, we don't even know if we can get out alive. You must get better. No, you must get better!"
When Old Zheng heard this, he suddenly became excited. Yes, he still had a mission to shoulder!
Tingyue and the others are still waiting for him to rescue them. Weiwei and Uncle Li are a woman and an old man, and he is the only strong laborer, so nothing can happen to him!
The snake venom has been squeezed out and medicine has been applied. To be honest, he feels a little better with the hot and cool sensations!
"Okay! I will definitely get better! Tingyue is still waiting for us to rescue him!"
As he said this, he struggled to get up.
Song Shiwei held his arm and helped him up.
At this time, Old Li looked up at the sky.
I couldn't help but frown.
"It will be dark in just over an hour. Before that, we must quickly find a place to spend the night! Otherwise, there will be dangers everywhere at night!"
Song Shiwei also nodded.
Not to mention Death Valley, even in Eastern Province at this time, danger lurked everywhere. In the mountains and forests, besides venomous snakes, insects, and ants, there were also various wolves, tigers, and leopards. If you really encountered a tiger, you would probably be in for a life-or-death struggle. Furthermore, the country designated the Siberian tiger as a Class I protected species in 1977, meaning hunting was strictly prohibited.
Thinking of this, Song Shiwei couldn't help but feel worried. After all, Old Zheng was poisoned now, and his mobility must have been greatly reduced. It would be difficult for her and Uncle Li to deal with a tiger, let alone a wild boar weighing several hundred kilograms.
Not to mention wolves who like to live in groups.
While it was still light, Song Shiwei and Old Li each carried one side of Old Zheng and walked forward.
The overall terrain in the canyon is getting higher and higher, and a slope has begun to appear in front.
The rocks on both walls are no longer the kind of granite that is easy to fall off, but the kind of black stone walls.
Old Li obviously still remembered the situation inside, and said to Song Shiwei and the others, "There's a cave not far ahead that's big enough for us to hide in. It's about two meters square. It should be enough for the three of us to hide in for the night."
Hearing that there was a place to stay, Song Shiwei breathed a sigh of relief.
After walking for about half an hour, they still didn't reach their destination before it got completely dark.
Not to mention her, even Old Li himself was anxious.
"It should be nearby, why can't I see it?"
Along the way, Song Shiwei had been searching on the cliff next to her, but she didn't see the cave that Old Li mentioned.
As she was looking around, her expression suddenly froze as she saw two green objects on the top of the cliff.
Song Shiwei's heart started pounding instantly. She didn't dare to speak loudly, and called out to Old Li in a trembling voice: "Uncle Li, Uncle Li, look up there, is that... a wolf..."
When he heard her say there was a wolf, Old Li's face instantly darkened.
I looked up and followed her gaze, only to see a pair of green eyes emerging from the shadowy woods above.
As if seeing that they had discovered it, the green eyes quickly disappeared.
His expression suddenly changed and he shouted, "Go!"
He quickly ran forward with Song Shiwei, supporting Lao Zheng.
They must find that cave quickly!
Wolves are generally social animals. That wolf should be responsible for finding food. If it finds prey, it will go back and call its companions!
When the wolves arrive, the three of them won't be enough to fill their teeth!
Song Shiwei was also anxious, and he ran very fast with Old Zheng as fast as the wind.
But they didn't dare to run blindly, because no matter how hard they ran, they could not outrun the wolves.
Moreover, there is no telling what unknown dangers lie ahead. Once night falls, their situation will only become more dangerous.
By then, there will be wolves in front and tigers behind, and you won't be able to escape even if you want to.
Old Zheng was a little annoyed.
"Maybe it was my blood that attracted the wolves. If I had been more careful, I wouldn't have gotten bitten by the snake!"
Song Shiwei comforted him, "Brother Zheng, now is not the time to talk about this. You don't want to be bitten by a snake. At that time, we were trying to escape, so how could we care about so many things?"
As if she had thought of something, she asked Lao Zheng: "Brother Zheng, do you carry a gun with you?"
Lao Zheng nodded, fumbled around his waist and took out something.
Song Shiwei saw that it was a Type 95 pistol. The gun body was polished to a shine and shone coldly in the night.
It shows how much he loves this gun.
"How many bullets do we have, Brother Zheng?"
Lao Zheng took out his bullet bag. Song Shiwei took a look and saw that there were quite a few bullets, at least dozens.
It is not known how many wolves there are in the pack, but every one of them is very precious to them now.
"Brother Zheng, if the wolves really come, you should hide first. You have a gun and can protect us from the dark!"
Old Zheng was a little reluctant at first. He thought, as a grown man, how could it be right for him to hide and let the old man and the woman charge into battle?
But Old Li also spoke.
"The little girl is right. Now is not the time to be a hero. You have a gun, you can protect us from the dark! Our main goal is to find that cave. Once we're inside, we just need to guard the entrance!"
He looked a little anxious, muttering quietly, "It should be nearby, why can't I find it?"
At this time, they didn't dare to run around anymore, but instead split up and carefully searched and felt the nearby rock walls.
Fortunately, just after a while, a wolf howl suddenly came from the distant valley.
Song Shiwei and the others' expressions suddenly changed.
Old Li exclaimed, "Oh no! The wolves are coming!"
Song Shiwei was so anxious that sweat was about to appear on his head. He hurriedly felt the wall to search. It was dark and there were many vines on the stone wall. He could not see where the cave was at all.
You can only explore it bit by bit.
Old Li and Old Zheng were the same, their hearts were in their throats, and they didn't dare to stop their hands. At this moment, Song Shiwei felt movement about ten meters away. She looked up and saw a gray wolf that was as tall as her thigh and more than a meter long, staring at her with green eyes.
The tail hangs down behind the body in a defensive posture.
Song Shiwei was so nervous that her heart was about to jump.
The hands holding onto the cliff were even shaking slightly.
In addition to the wolf on her side, there were also several wolves on Old Li and Old Zheng's side.
The wolves were very clever and surrounded them.
