The northern foothills of the mountains were pitch black and everything was quiet. Occasionally, one or two nighthawk calls could be heard, which could be heard far away in the deep mountains.
The four young warriors were tired from talking and gathered around a bonfire at the mouth of the cliff. Two of them took a nap leaning on their scabbards, while the other two were warming themselves by the fire and keeping vigil.
"Get up quickly, there's something going on!"
The two men were startled when they heard the sound of dead branches breaking. They kicked the sleeping two men to remind them. The four of them jumped up one after another, back to back, holding their swords tightly, and looked at the dark jungle around them with uncertainty.
"who!"
"Sneaky, get out of here!"
A young warrior shouted fiercely towards the jungle.
In this open space, only a crackling bonfire can illuminate a radius of dozens of feet. In the jungle a little further away, it is dark and cannot be seen clearly.
In the dark jungle, a dark shadow slowly came out of the jungle. It was a gray wolf that was almost the size of a calf with gray fur. It came to a stand about ten feet away from the bonfire and stood coldly and arrogantly. It glanced at the four young warriors with its green eyes.
.
"It turned out to be a gray wolf. It scared me to death! The strength of an adult gray wolf is only at the fifth level of the body refining stage. I can take care of it by myself!"
The young warrior raised his head and laughed, breathing a sigh of relief.
But the other three young warriors were so ugly that they couldn't even smile at all.
Click!
Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of tiny footsteps coming from behind the gray wolf. Judging from the sound, there were definitely many of them.
Adult wolves appeared around the campfire one by one, more than twenty of them, with pairs of green eyes flashing with a cruel cold light.
The largest gray wolf from before was clearly the leader of the pack.
The young warrior's laughter finally became mute and turned into boundless fear.
The four young warriors gasped, they could hardly hold their weapons steady, and their hands and feet began to tremble.
"A pack of gray wolves! There are too many to deal with! I can only fend off one or two of them, and the four of us can only deal with eight if we work together. If there are more, we will definitely die."
"Damn it, wolves actually appeared at this time!"
"Do you want to go into a cliff to escape?"
"Ye Chen wants us to die. If we go into the cliff, he and the wolves will attack us from both inside and outside, and we will die even faster if we are attacked from the front and back!"
"Let's go quickly and get out of here!"
They looked panicked, turned around and fled.
Seven or eight gray wolves immediately exerted their strength and rushed towards them.
The remaining dozen gray wolves did not move and stayed in place.
The alpha wolf sniffed the line of cliff, and a fresh smell of blood wafted out from it, and he couldn't help but hiss lowly. The smell of blood made him very excited. There were injured prey in this line of cliff!
...
Ye Chen was sleeping lightly with a knife in his hand in the cliff. When he heard the screams of several young warriors coming from outside, he suddenly woke up and opened his eyes, "What happened outside...a wolf howling?" he asked.
He jumped up and rushed outside quickly.
As soon as he reached the exit, Ye Chen was shocked and stopped.
Outside the line of cliff, more than a dozen gray wolves with green eyes were seen surrounding the line of cliff. When they saw Ye Chen appeared, their eyes immediately showed a fierce look.
"Grey wolves!"
Ye Chen's pupils shrank sharply.
He had been waiting for the four young warriors to leave before he could leave this place. In his estimation, it would only take two or three days at most.
But now the situation has suddenly changed, and a pack of gray wolves has appeared.
In the deep mountains of the Beilu Mountains, gray wolves are roaming around, and no one knows where the wolves will appear.
Ye Chen's previous calculations were all used to deal with Ma Ruyuan. No matter how much he calculated, it was impossible to predict when the gray wolf would appear.
"Ouch!"
The cold green eyes of the gray gray wolf glanced at Ye Chen, and immediately barked, ordering the wolves to launch an attack.
Immediately there were three gray wolves, with crazy looks in their eyes, they suddenly jumped up and rushed towards the cliff.
"Damn it, there are so many gray wolves, how can we kill them all?!"
Ye Chen retreated quickly and ran towards the depths of the cliff. Only inside could he easily use the terrain to launch a counterattack.
Three gray wolves immediately chased in.
Ye Chen fled back to a depth of a hundred feet on the cliff.
Ma Ruyuan bled for most of the night and was on the verge of death, but he was surprisingly tenacious and still managed to survive.
"I don't want to die. I want to return to Ma's wealthy family alive. There is a great future and wealth waiting for me. When I return to the family, I will gather all my troops and come back to kill you." Ma Ruyuan looked dazed and mouthed.
He muttered something, opened his eyes, and saw Ye Chen retreating in panic from outside.
"Haha, Ye Chen, my reinforcements are here, you are dead!"
Ma Ruyuan gasped and laughed, thinking that the reinforcements had finally arrived.
But as soon as he saw the gray wolves chasing after Ye Chen, he was stunned and frightened.
"No!"
Ma Ruyuan howled in fear. Even if Ye Chen slashed him before, he had never been so frightened before. When he encountered the Gray Wolf, his body was gone.
"I am the son of the great general who protects the country. How could I, Ma Ruyuan, die here!!! Save me quickly! Junior Brother Ye Chen, Senior Brother Ye Chen, Grandpa Ye, I was wrong! I have a piece of jade here, an ancestral treasure, worth three
One hundred taels of gold is very beneficial to cultivation! I'll give it to you to save my life!"
Ma Ruyuan didn't know where the strength came from, and frantically pulled out a smooth green jade pendant tied with a delicate green rope from his neck.
Ye Chen ignored him at all and continued to escape deeper inside.
The three gray wolves behind him were chasing him very closely.
Ye Chen fled another hundred feet and retreated to a narrow place where only one person could pass. He suddenly stopped and turned around, swinging his sword and executed "Tiger Leap Double Slash!".
The Tiger Leap Double Slash is already a sure-fire move for him.
Poof!
A violent attack of 1,200 kilograms was struck with force. The gray wolf at the front could not avoid it. From its head to its abdomen, it was split open by the blade and fell out. It twitched a few times on the ground and died.
Die again.
A gray wolf from behind stretched out its claws almost at the same time and pounced on him.
Ye Chen had no time to withdraw his sword.
"I'm not just good at swordsmanship!"
He shouted loudly and flew up with his legs as fast as lightning.
With a force of 600 kilograms, he kicked the gray wolf's most vulnerable abdomen.
boom!
With a muffled sound, the gray wolf flew backwards seven or eight feet away and fell on the cliff. It fell to the ground and stood up slightly lamely.
Ye Chen's leg suffered moderate injuries.
Ye Chen retracted his knife, holding the knife in both hands, and stood guard in this narrow place where only one person could pass.
The last remaining gray wolf finally showed a cowering look and did not pounce. He howled at Ye Chen, backed away slowly, and then left with the slightly injured gray wolf. One death and one injury, this price
The two gray wolves had already known that Ye Chen was not easy to mess with, and they started to think about quitting.
"It seems that the strength of a single adult gray wolf is indeed not high. At about the fourth or fifth level of the body refining stage, the speed is slightly faster and the strength is relatively low! As long as you are not surrounded by more than two gray wolves, you can ensure your safety.
.”
Ye Chen took a breath, suppressed his violent heartbeat, and calmed down from the shock.
He glanced at the dead gray wolf and felt confident, then walked carefully outside the cliff to see if the gray wolf outside had left.
Ye Chen came to the place where he rested before. Ma Ruyuan had disappeared, leaving traces of blood drops and claw marks on the ground, extending beyond a line of cliffs. It seemed that when the two gray wolves went out, they took their prey with them.
out.
Ye Chen's eyes lit up and he saw a cyan jade pendant on the ground.
"Jade pendant!"
Ye Chen thought about it for a moment. When he escaped back, he seemed to vaguely hear Ma Ruyuan shouting something like "Help, Jade Pendant". He was in a hurry to avoid the gray wolf, but he didn't hear clearly. And he didn't have the habit of searching people before.
I don't know if there is anything on Ma Ruyuan.
"The jade pendant that Ma Ruyuan keeps close to his body cannot be a treasure, right?!"
Ye Chen's heart moved slightly, and he reached out nervously to pick up the jade pendant.
"It is indeed a treasure! In the past three months, my ancient painting scroll has not been replenished with 'Tian Li' for a while. My cultivation level has also stagnated at the sixth level of the body refining stage. It lacks higher-grade herbs and is difficult to temper.
Physical training.”
As soon as Ye Chen took the jade pendant in his hands, he felt a scalding heat coming from the ancient painting next to his body. It was so strong that he couldn't help but feel overjoyed.
