Chen Xiaobei breathed a long sigh of relief. Maybe the wolf howled just to say hello to them.
Sun Gui even laughed, "tnd, you scared me."
After saying that, he turned to look at Sun Jian and said, "Brother, let's go."
Sun Jian shook his head.
"No, we can't go any further. Logically speaking, the wolf shouldn't show up at this late afternoon."
Chen Xiaobei didn't know much about the habits of wolves.
Many of the stories he heard when he was a child were that wolves would attack herdsmen's sheep and horses at night.
So they probably belong to the type that stays up during the day and comes out at night.
"Brother, the wolves have disappeared. Maybe they are still afraid of us." Sun Gui disagreed.
Sun Jian shook his head and refused again, "No, we can't risk our lives. Let's go back first and come back in two days when we are ready."
Chen Xiaobei was of course very happy to hear that he was going back.
But on the surface, he still had to act a little hypocritical, "Brother Sun, I think it's okay. After all, the wolf has escaped."
Sun Jian shook his head again, with a solemn look on his face.
"I was negligent. I didn't expect that there would be wild wolves on this mountain, and I didn't bring a serial crossbow up here."
The serial crossbow was a very advanced gadget in the era of cold weapons. It could fire continuously and had great lethality. It was indeed very suitable for dealing with ferocious beasts.
After Sun Jian finished speaking, he waved to everyone to return the way they came.
It would be much faster to go back.
Just after passing two forks in the road, another wolf howled came from far behind, followed by another.
Sun Jian's face changed slightly after hearing this, and he hurriedly shouted, "Everyone, hurry up, I'm afraid I'll alarm the wolves."
Sure enough, there were more wolf howls behind him, and soon three or four more wolf howls were heard. It could be heard that they should be coming from different wolves.
Hearing the screams, Chen Xiaobei secretly felt lucky that it was not Sun Gui who was leading the team.
Fortunately they didn't move on, otherwise I might have ended up here today.
I ran back through four or five forks in one breath.
Ahead is a steep slope, which is four to five feet high and very steep, almost straight up and down.
When they came, they tied the rope and lowered it.
If you want to climb up now, of course you have to tie a rope.
Sun Ce took a coil of rope from the hands of someone next to him, slung it over his shoulder, shouted loudly, and rushed towards the top of the slope quickly.
Seeing Sun Ce's skill as if he was flying over a wall, Chen Xiaobei secretly admired him.
I'm afraid I won't be able to reach this height even if I practice for a lifetime.
Sun Jian climbed to the top of the slope to find a rock, tied the rope and was about to throw it down when he saw a gray shadow appear in the distance.
Oops, no, that's a wolf.
As he swung the rope, he shouted down below, "The wild wolf is coming, everyone, hurry up."
Sun Gui agreed, took the rope and climbed up, while the other people also rushed to get ahead.
Yes, everyone has a sense of fear when facing wolves.
Chen Xiaobei was even more frightened and panicked, but he had no choice but to be the last one to climb up because he couldn't catch them.
Fortunately, the wolf was far enough away from the ground. When Chen Xiaobei climbed up, there was still calm behind him.
As he climbed up, Chen Xiaobei felt a chill in his heart.
When danger came, Sun Jian, Sun Gui and the others didn't even have a word to comfort themselves, they only thought about escaping for their lives first.
This group of people is not interesting enough. I am accompanying them into the mountains this time for the sake of money, so let’s forget about it from now on.
However, Sun Jian, Sun Gui and the others did not feel anything was wrong. At this time, they stood there one by one, looking at the distance with great interest. Several wild wolves appeared in the distance. But they only appeared and did not continue.
Come this way.
Seeing this steep slope, Chen Xiaobei suddenly felt lucky. It was so hard for people to go up the slope. It is estimated that wolves, insects, tigers and leopards would not be able to get over it. This is probably one of the reasons why there are no ferocious beasts in the mountain temple area.
After looking at the wild wolf for a while, Sun Gui said bitterly, "You scared me so much today, and I will eat you alive another day."
Eaten alive, it suddenly aroused Chen Xiaobei's memory. Yes, Liu Rumei's housekeeper Liu Ce once mentioned that if he could get him a live wild wolf, he could give him a hundred taels of silver.
Looking at the wild wolves in the distance, it was worth hundreds of taels of silver. Chen Xiaobei secretly swallowed his saliva.
Alas, walking ATM.
But now I am not confident enough to catch a wild wolf alive, so I can only give up this opportunity to make money temporarily.
Walking back to the mountain temple, Chen Xiaobei pretended to be scared, "Brother Sun, this wild wolf is too scary. If you hadn't made a decisive decision, I would have been eaten by the wolf."
Sun Jian laughed and patted the scimitar hanging on his waist.
"Don't be afraid, I have to protect you even if I risk my life."
Chen Xiaobei took the opportunity to propose, "Brother Sun, let's rest for a few days. It's too scary. I really don't dare to go."
Sun Jian touched his chin, thought for a while, and said haha, "Okay, okay, let's just rest for a few days and then talk about it."
This is what you said. Chen Xiaobei left quickly and went home.
Watching Chen Xiaobei walk away, Sun Gui next to him couldn't help but said, "Brother, I don't want to bring this burden up the mountain anymore. He doesn't know martial arts. We have to protect him when he encounters a pack of wolves."
Sun Jian thought for a long time, and finally sighed, "Go back and bring more people. Let's go in first to explore the situation and see how many wolves there are."
When Chen Xiaobei came down from the mountain, the sun was already setting in the west.
The thatched house at the foot of the mountain is almost done, and Lidong is leading people to make final repairs.
Seeing him coming down, Lidong seemed very proud. He pointed at the thatched house as if he was taking credit and said, "Brother Xiaobei, what do you think, please give me some advice!"
Chen Xiaobei smiled and waved his hand, "No objection, very good, very good, you continue your work, I will go home first."
Walking a few steps further, Chen Xiaobei suddenly found Cui Hongyu and Chen Qiaoer fishing for fish by the river.
Seeing her brother suddenly appear, Chen Qiaoer was very excited. She ran towards him screaming, hugging his legs and pouting like a show off, "Brother, brother, we caught a few big fish, please brag."
Praise my sister-in-law."
Before Chen Xiaobei could say anything, Cui Hongyu over there was already smiling, "You're so clever, you just caught a few fish, what's there to brag about?"
Chen Xiaobei came to the barrel and looked inside. He couldn't help but be shocked. There were three or four big fish in the barrel, all of which were more than one foot.
There are also a few fish over half a foot long.
"Husband, I want to put these half-foot-long fish in our fish pond. Otherwise, if they are just small fry, when will they grow up?"
One sentence woke up Chen Xiaobei.
Yes, I only worry about big fish eating small fish, but I ignore the problem of small fish growing up. Natural growth is too slow.
You have to find a way to get some feed yourself.
After hearing his thoughts, Cui Hongyu looked surprised.
"I have never heard of feeding fish. Can we still make money?"
