When no one spoke outside, Lu Yunyou only heard the sounds of various ferocious beasts coming from far away. Some of the sounds sounded sharp and weird, which made him feel a little scared for no reason. , lying in the car, the clear breeze was blowing, but he always had an inexplicable restless mood and could not calm down.
Before, he didn't feel anything wrong spending the night alone in the woods. Now that he was accompanied by so many people, he was a little scared. As the sounds of those ferocious beasts appeared more and more frequently, he became more and more uneasy. Fortunately, some people outside were snoring. The voice was very helpful in stabilizing his mood.
Mixed with the crackling sound of some burning firewood, the surroundings of the carriage were very quiet. Perhaps it was because he had been unconscious for too long. Although his state of mind had slowly returned to calm, at ten o'clock in the night, he was still not sleepy at all.
The breeze blew non-stop, causing the light in the carriage to dim and brighten. Lu Yunyou's thoughts were now near and far away. He was thinking about his own situation, and about Lu Wuchen's whereabouts.
In fact, just like Lu Yunyou, there are still some people outside who have not rested, because they cannot relax their vigilance at all times when spending the night in the wilderness, and someone must keep vigil at night.
Unlike during the day, the night watchers do not have to patrol around. They only need to stay near the team to ensure that they can detect in time when a vicious beast attacks the team. Before nightfall, Hong Ying has arranged for four people to guard the east, west, south and south of the convoy. Four positions in the north, observe the surrounding movements at any time.
Those four people are only responsible for guarding the first half of the night. In the second half of the night, someone who has rested will change the guard with them, so that they can still rest for half the night.
There is a fire at the location of the four people to scare away some ferocious beasts that are afraid of fire. In order to prevent the fire from extinguishing, the four people have to add more firewood to the fire from time to time. With the four people concentrating on their respective responsibilities, No disturbance can escape their eyes.
Time passed slowly, the wind at night became stronger and stronger, and the blowing flames swayed, bringing many light and shadow changes in the carriage. The air was no longer as hot as it was at night, and there was a sense of coolness. After stopping to heal his wounds, Lu Yunyou He suddenly felt much more comfortable, but he still had trouble falling asleep.
Although the sounds of birds and beasts outside are getting quieter and quieter, he still can't help but think about things that can make him worried and scared. It seems that the Lu family was besieged by the three major forces in Wuyang City a long time ago. He had never left Wuyang City and experienced a lot of things, but these experiences only made him more afraid of the outside world.
The deaths of Lin Ruoxi and Lu Yi could not be changed. Lu Qingyu had no idea whether he was alive or dead. He was also afraid that Lu Wuchen would get into trouble trying to save him.
"Everyone, wake up, there is a ferocious beast coming." Just when Lu Yunyou thought that it might take a long time for him to return to Wuyang City, a hurried shout suddenly came from the south of the motorcade. He was so shocked that he couldn't sleep. He opened his eyes immediately, then raised his ears to pay attention to what was going on outside.
At the same time, those who were resting stood up one after another and stood together with torches. In a blink of an eye, the carriage became very bright under the light of the fire.
Immediately afterwards, after a sound of fidgeting with weapons, Lu Yunyou heard a man's voice: "Everyone is divided into two teams. Be sure to protect the safety of the goods."
"Yes," all the personnel agreed, and then when Lu Yunyou reluctantly stood up, those people quickly stood in two rows to the south of the convoy, each holding their weapons in preparation.
Barely holding on to half of his body, Lu Yunyou hurriedly opened the curtains and looked out. Through the gaps in the crowd, he saw pairs of eyes glowing green. After realizing that the owners of those eyes were ferocious beasts, his heart suddenly tightened.
Those ferocious beasts were getting closer and closer to them. It was roughly estimated that there were at least dozens of them. I didn't know if there were any in other directions. After a moment of worry, Lu Yunyou reluctantly moved his body to look out of the other window. Fortunately, there was no one on the other side. .
Under the moonlight, looking back, Lu Yunyou vaguely saw the huge size of those ferocious beasts. Each one was no less than the cracked lion he encountered before. From the size alone, most of those ferocious beasts had the equivalent of a fourth-level martial artist. Strength.
After getting closer, Lu Yunyou saw those ferocious beasts covered in snow-white bodies, with pointed mouths and erect ears, like the wolf-like ferocious beasts recorded in the book.
When hunting, wolf beasts usually go out in groups, with the alpha wolf commanding the battle. They are usually regarded as prey. In many cases, the prey is already under their control.
When Lu Yunyou was thinking about the introductions about wolf beasts he had read in books, facing dozens of ferocious wolves, Hong Ying and more than fifty martial arts cultivators in the night looked solemn, and they all looked as if they were facing a giant. enemy posture.
After the two sides got closer, as if they had received an order, dozens of giant wolves quickly separated and rushed towards the convoy in an encirclement manner, each one at extremely fast speeds.
During the run, many giant wolves howled continuously, as if they were deliberately demonstrating to the crowd.
Originally, Hong Ying wanted to try his best to protect the safety of the vehicles, but after determining the number of wolves, he had to change his original idea and told the people around him: "Everyone should protect their own safety."
Thirty or so ferocious beasts was not a small number. The herd they encountered could be considered a medium-sized herd and was not easy to deal with at all.
"Yes," on the other side, after receiving Hong Ying's instructions, the two teams concentrated slightly according to the original formation. The archers in the front row were already ready to attack, waiting for the wolves to arrive less than fifty meters away from them. At this moment, under Hong Ying's order, the archers took the lead in attacking the wolves.
Like Ling Yun who saved Lu Yunyou before, the lowest strength of the archers in the entire team are third-level martial arts cultivators. The bows and arrows shot by them are extremely powerful, but those ferocious beasts run too fast, and you want to hit them. It's not easy.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh," arrows pierced the air and shot towards the rushing wolves. At first, Ling Yun and others did not deliberately aim until the wolves approached them less than thirty meters away. Ling Yun and the others just started aiming and shooting.
Such a close distance is enough to ignore the impact of the snow wolf's speed on their aiming at the snow wolf. As long as their arrows can hit the snow wolf, even if they cannot kill it with one hit, they can still kill the extremely fast snow wolf. Shot seriously injured.
In the blink of an eye, there was no way to avoid it. Several snow wolves were hit by arrows and fell to the ground. Their fallen bodies rolled forward for a long time before they stopped completely.
When the wolves were less than twenty meters away from the team, it was the last chance to shoot. Ling Yun in the center of the team fired three arrows, pointing directly at the heads of the three snow wolves.
The full moon was opened, and the next moment, two shrill wails cut through the fields. Because the two snow wolves were shot in the head, their bodies lost control and rolled from back to front. They rolled forward for more than ten meters before stopping and struggling. After the meeting, he was shot in the vital part and died on the spot.
A few more snow wolves were shot by others, and the remaining snow wolves were either shot or injured or completely avoided shooting. When the wolves were less than ten meters away from everyone, other people who had been prepared no longer hesitated. At Hong Ying's shout, they all waved their weapons and rushed towards the snow wolves.
Several of the thirty-odd snow wolves have been shot and killed, and several more of the twenty or so remaining snow wolves have been shot and wounded. Before the official confrontation, the situation became much better for Hong Ying and the others.
Then, under Lu Yunyou's attention, the two sides started fighting directly. The people from the escort agency cooperated tacitly, and they worked in pairs to deal with the snow wolves that were rushing towards them. They did not appear to be losing at first.
At first, the snow wolf's attack method was also very simple. It used a running approach to jump up and pounce towards the prey. A pair of sharp claws glowed coldly in the moonlight, and the fangs in its mouth were sharp and long. It was as if they were pounced by the huge ones. If you fall, you will definitely escape death.
Continuing to pay attention, Lu Yunyou discovered that the snow wolves were not only huge in size, but also very strong. They were far more agile than the cracked lion he encountered before. For everyone, letting the snow wolves approach them was completely risky, but they could only get close. Snow Wolf, they have a chance to kill Snow Wolf.
Fortunately, the people in the escort agency have all dealt with ferocious beasts and know the strengths and weaknesses of snow wolves. They work in pairs to deal with a snow wolf. With mutual cooperation, the situation for everyone is relatively safe for the time being.
Soon after, Lu Yunyou's eyes stopped on two of them, one on the left and one on the right. The two people were cooperating in tacit cooperation to resist the attack of a snow wolf.
Facing the snow wolf's rampage, the two of them kept waving their weapons. As a result, because their strength was no match for the snow wolf, the two of them were quickly scratched by the snow wolf's sharp claws.
After being injured, the two of them no longer dared to get too close to the snow wolf. They could only use weapons to injure the snow wolf time and time again to weaken the snow wolf. Just like Lu Yunyou did against the cracked lion that day, it might have to wait. Only when the snow wolf's injury was serious enough did the two of them dare to fight hard and kill the snow wolf in one fell swoop.
After confirming that the duel between the two of them and the snow wolf would not end in a short period of time, Lu Yunyou looked elsewhere. The battles were also fierce in other locations, especially those scenes where fifth-level martial arts cultivators dealt with a snow wolf alone.
One person and one beast were constantly fighting each other, each showing their strengths. Under the constant impact of the snow wolf, any reaction of the fifth-level martial artist could give people a feeling of tension and excitement, and Lu Yunyou couldn't take his eyes off it.
Just when Lu Yunyou was concentrating on the outstanding performance of the fifth-level martial artist, a scream came out, which immediately attracted his attention. For some reason, a man was pinned to the ground by the two forelimbs of a snow wolf, and the weapon in his hand dropped. He fell aside and struggled with his hands to no avail. When his companions came to rescue him, the snow wolf had already bitten him one step at a time. After a sound of bone cracking, the man could no longer make any sound.
