Looking at the sun that has shifted away from the center, I can't help but beat my heart. The whole morning has passed and I haven't found any food. If this continues, the food will be exhausted soon. What should I do?
"Xiaomi, what are you thinking about?"
"I'm thinking of you..."
Yao Chi smiled knowingly: "Don't worry, we won't die that easily!"
"I just feel that since I am the squad leader, I should be the first to find food and water for you. But, you see, most of the day has passed and we haven't found anything!"
"Don't be discouraged, didn't you say that? No matter what difficulties we encounter, it cannot be a reason for us to give up! Xiaomi, we all believe in you, and you must also believe in yourself! We are eagles, eagles who can live again after death!
"
"Don't worry! I, Tang Xiaomi, will never give in to difficulties!"
"Hush! There's something going on!" Following Jiang Wan's low shout, we all subconsciously picked up our guns and took cover.
"Xiaomi, these footsteps don't sound like those of an enemy~?"
"It's a beast!" I said calmly.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wan immediately became energetic and was about to rush out with a gun in hand. Fortunately, Yao Chi stopped him.
"Jiang Wan, what are you doing! It's too dangerous for you to do this!"
"It's just a beast. I don't believe that no matter how fast she runs, she can run faster than the gun in my hand!"
Jiang Wan's words reminded me that when I was on the farm a few years ago, the potato squad leader once said to me that wolves are also living beings and they are also good friends of mankind.
"Don't hurt it! No matter how ferocious the beast is, it still has a life!"
Hearing the sound getting closer, Yao Chi turned his head and glanced: "It's a wolf! Oh my god, how can there be a wolf here in broad daylight!"
With a wry smile, I answered Yao Chi's words in a low voice: "Do you think it's so gloomy here, it looks like daytime? What's more, this is someone else's territory, and to them, we are the invaders!"
"Tang Xiaomi, how long has it been since this happened, and you still have the heart to make a joke!" Yao Chi glared at me.
"Okay, no kidding, wolves are nocturnal animals and never come out during the day. Even if the environment is gloomy, there is no reason to still see wolves, so I think..."
"This wolf may be out looking for prey!" Jiang Wan took over my words and continued.
"No." I denied lightly.
"It's not looking for prey. Could it be that it's going to KTV to sing? Xiaomi, it's time now, so stop making trouble!"
"If my guess is correct, this should have been released by Mi Lan. The purpose is to lure the snake out of its hole, so that we can take the initiative to attack and expose the target!"
"How could that happen? Xiaomi, aren't you fainting from hunger~?!"
"Although this wolf is relatively large, its footsteps are very regular and it does not look as ferocious as ordinary wolves. This shows that it is most likely a domesticated wolf!"
"Oh my God!" Yao Chi and Jiang Wan were shocked: "Who dares to be so bold as to tame a wolf!"
"This is Mi Lan's strategy! The more easily we believe and don't doubt anything, the more dangerous it is!"
"Then what should we do now? We can't kill it, but we can't leave it. We can't let it be eaten by us!"
"Yao Chi, give me the magazine and muzzle adapter!"
"W-what do you want this for!?"
"Just give it to me! Hurry up!"
After taking what Yao Chi handed over, I skillfully disassembled the gun, installed the muzzle adapter, and loaded the gun.
"Xiaomi! How did you get the blank ammunition! Where is your live ammunition magazine?!" Yao Chi grabbed my hand and said nothing to let me put it in gear.
"Yao Chi, listen, your sniper rifle has a long range, but it is too powerful. It will probably kill the wolf with one shot, and it will also expose our current whereabouts, so this mission is up to me.
, I only hit its eyes without hurting its life, so that we can have a chance to escape from here."
"No, this is too dangerous! The safe distance for blank bullets is only seven meters. I can't let you take risks like this!"
"That's right, you are all Red Eagle's elites, and I'm just a new recruit. I won't be of much use, so you'd better let me do it!"
"No! Jiang Wan, who allowed you to belittle yourself so much! Believe me, since I can be your instructor, I must have extraordinary abilities! If you can't even have the most basic trust, how can we be comrades-in-arms?
, What kind of friends are you? Just stay where I am! If I am really in danger of life and death, then you can come out and save me, okay?"
"Millet!"
Ignoring Yao Chi and Jiang Wan's requests, I put the car into gear, held the gun in hand, and slowly moved out.
Xia Xia was right, everything here was eerie, I even felt a coldness running straight through my pores, making all the hairs on my body stand up.
Standing ten meters away from the wolf, I stared at the wolf without blinking. It had gray fur and a face that looked very much like a dog. Even in the daytime, I could still clearly see it.
Those eyes, which were shining with faint green, stared at me without blinking, as if they wanted to see through me and then eat me.
This wolf was extremely quiet at the moment. It seemed to understand the tactics. It sat down on the spot without barking or attacking. It seemed that it was planning to have a protracted battle with me to compare its endurance.
Looking at its appearance, I didn't have the courage to continue moving forward. The wolf ran very fast. With the weapons in my hands, I couldn't hurt it at all from a distance of ten meters. No, I can't just do that.
Sit and wait, otherwise, when the sun gradually sets, the real wolf pack will appear. I must get close to it as soon as possible. As long as I move forward three meters, I can accurately hit this wolf as long as three meters.
eyes.
"Yao Chi, draw its attention away!"
After receiving the command, Yao Chi immediately came out from behind the big tree, picked up the stones on the ground and threw them at the wolf.
Just when the wolf turned its face, I seized the opportunity, ran forward quickly, and hit its left eye accurately. While it was howling, I seized the opportunity and hit its right eye again.
Blood splattered everywhere, and the howling was deafening. Such a loud sound would definitely attract the nearby wolves.
"Yao Chi! Jiang Wan! Let's run! Go back the way we came!" He yelled, and Yao Chi, Jiang Wan and I ran back the way we came as if we were dead. The remaining wolf howled in pain,
Rolling on the ground.
We kept running like this, until we felt it was safe, we stopped. Then we held on to the big tree and gasped for air. But we didn't realize that it was already dark.
"Tang Xiaomi! You just scared people to death, do you know!" Yao Chi slapped me worriedly and angrily: "Who allowed you to be so scary! The instructor is amazing!"
I looked at the palm of my hand quietly, in a daze and said nothing.
Yao Chi thought I was admitting my mistake to her: "It's okay if you know I was wrong. Next time if you..."
I interrupted Yao Chi: "No, look, I was holding on to this tree just now, and now my hands are slightly wet."
"There is heavy dew in late autumn, and it is normal for the trees to be soaked by the dew." Jiang Wan looked at it and shook his head calmly.
"But, now that the genius has just darkened, how could there be such a heavy exposure?!"
"Then what do you think...?"
"There must be a water source nearby!"
"Water source? How could it be?"
"During the day, because of the sun, all the water vapor rising from the water source is evaporated. But when the sun goes down in the evening, the water vapor can rise normally again. In addition, there is dew at night, so the surface of the trees will be spread.
It was soaked by the water vapor that came over. That’s why we didn’t notice it during the day!”
"Then should we go and take a look? If there is really a water source, that would be really great!"
Looking at the excited Yao Chi, I shook my head in disappointment: "What if there are wolves over there, and it's already dark now, we have to go back quickly, otherwise, Xia Xia might come to us!"
"Then let's mark this place now and come back tomorrow morning."
