The soldiers who were practicing outside the barracks couldn't help but tremble when they heard the screams one after another in the barracks. They really didn't understand what their father-in-law did in the barracks to make these tough men scream. So miserable.

Ever since they saw Lu Chen carrying a bundle into the barracks, they began to hear these screams, and they didn't know what their father-in-law brought into the barracks.

"Today is the first day, and there are four more injections waiting for you!" After giving Feng Huai and the Weiwei soldiers who were bitten by wolves, Lu Chen said these words and packed the things back into his bag. , after leaving the barracks, when they heard Lu Chen say that there were four more injections to follow, the injured soldiers couldn't help but tremble again.

Seeing Lu Chen walking out of the barracks carrying a baggage, the soldiers who were practicing stopped and looked at the baggage in Lu Chen's hand with strange and questioning eyes.

"What are you looking at!" Lu Chen looked at the strange expressions of these soldiers. Lu Chen knew that it was probably the screams of Feng Huai's men in the barracks that scared them so much, "Du Junchuo, let them all assemble. !" Lu Chen gave Du Junchuo instructions and left Beiweiwei's camp alone.

When Lu Chen hid his things in the study and came to the camp again, all the Weiwei soldiers except those who needed to watch and patrol had been gathered here, and Su Dingfang, Fang Qi, Meng Ji, and the newly arrived Lian Xiude and Peng Zun was also standing here.

Lian Xiude and Peng Zun kept touching the commander-level back armor, with pride on their faces. Peng Zun even took out the Tang Dao and wiped it constantly.

"Peng Zun, Lian Xiude!" Lu Chen directly named these two people.

"My subordinate is here!" The two heard Lu Chen calling him. Peng Zun quickly put the Tang sword into its sheath, raised his chest and looked up at Lu Chen.

"You two go and gather five hundred soldiers and search the mountain with me!" Lu Chen gave the order directly to the two of them.

"Yes!" The two of them took the order and turned around to order troops outside Zhuangzi. As for why they were searching the mountain, when they came just now, they had already heard from Du Junchuo that Feng Huai and others were killed by a pack of wolves when they were patrolling the back mountain. Having been bitten, Lu Chen now ordered them to search the mountain with troops, obviously preparing to destroy this group of wild wolves.

"Follow me into the mountains!" At this time, Lu Chen had already put on his camouflage uniform and put his pistol in the holster on his waist.

"Yes!" The remaining Beiwei Guards officers responded in unison.

Just as Lu Chen was walking out of the military camp with these Beiwei Guard soldiers, Lian Xiude and Peng Zun had already walked over with five hundred soldiers from a distance.

"Lian Xiude, leave a hundred people behind and guard this line for me!" Lu Chen pointed directly at the line with Lujiazhuang's back against the hillside and began to deploy directly.

"Yes!" Lian Xiude took the order directly, turned around and arranged for a hundred soldiers to keep a good distance and wait on the cordon ordered by Lu Chen.

"The rest of you, follow me into the mountains. Let's eat wolf meat tonight!" Lu Chen waved his hand and walked up the mountain first.

Su Dingfang and the commanders of the Weiwei Guards looked at each other and hurriedly chased after them.

"Master, let me clear the way!" Fang Qi, who followed Lu Chen into the mountain, came to Lu Chen carrying a Tang sword and said.

"Do you know how to track?" Lu Chen glanced at Fang Qi.

"No!" Fang Qi answered simply. He was from a farmer's family and was not an Orion. How could he have such tracking skills?

"Sir! I was a hunter before joining the army, so I know a thing or two about tracking prey!" Just when Fang Qi was feeling a little embarrassed, Lian Xiude said from behind Lu Chen.

"Oh? Xiude, you were an Orion before. Why haven't I heard you mention it?" When Lian Xiude said that he was an Orion, Peng Zun and Meng Ji looked at Lian Xiude with curiosity.

"This is not something worth showing off, what is there to say!" Lian Xiude explained with a smile.

"Xiude, you know the tracking technique, how about we compete to see who can find the wolves first?" Lu Chen looked at Lian Xiude and said with a smile.

"Sir, you also know the art of tracking?" When he heard Lu Chen say that he also knew the art of tracking, Lian Xiude looked at Lu Chen in surprise.

"I don't want to hear what you are saying!" Seeing Lian Xiude's surprised expression, Meng Ji slapped Lian Xiude directly, "Our master is a scholar of heaven and earth, how can he not know the tracking technique!"

Ever since Lu Chen made Lujiazhuang look different every day, everyone in the village has regarded Lu Chen as a god. If Lu Chen hadn't explicitly prohibited it, many villagers would have set up a memorial tablet for Lu Chen sooner or later.

"I also know a little bit about it, so today I will try to see if the tracking technique I have learned is new to me!" Lu Chen said with a smile. As the captain of the Ninth Special Forces Team, tracking technique is a basic subject. If you have this ability, I forgot that I am still a special operations captain.

"In that case, let's see what's the difference between your master's tracking technique and Xiu De's tracking technique!" Su Dingfang said with a smile. As for Lu Chen's injury, it was not within the scope of these people's consideration. Guess, if so many people here can injure the father-in-law of my family, then we can all wipe our necks together.

"Let's go!" Lu Chen waved his hand and stepped forward. Following Lu Chen was Lian Xiude. As for the others, with Lu Chen as the center, they were scattered around Lu Chen to protect him.

Soon, Lu Chen ordered everyone to stop advancing and turned to look at Lian Xiude.

"Xiude, tell me?" Lu Chen looked at Lian Xiude with a smile.

"That's what my subordinate said!" Lian Xiude saluted Lu Chen and said, "Look at these branches that fell to the ground. They should have been broken by Feng Huai and the others when they went down the mountain." Lian Xiude picked them up from the ground as he spoke. Picking up a few broken branches, there were still brown blood stains on the branches, which could verify Lian Xiude's words. Lu Chen heard Lian Xiude's analysis and nodded in agreement, "And from the injuries of Feng Huai and others, my subordinates It seems that this place is not too far away from where they encountered the wolves, it should be not far in front, I wonder if my subordinate is right?" Lian Xiude looked at Lu Chen and asked.

"Xiude is right!" Lu Chen nodded again, "In my opinion, the place where Feng Huai and the others encountered the wolves is no more than three hundred steps away from us!" Lu Chen looked at Lian Xiude. The dead branch in his hand gave an accurate number.

"Master, should we be more careful? After all, the distance of three hundred steps is not that far for those wolf cubs!" Su Dingfang reminded Lu Chen from the side.

"It's okay! Let's go there now. There shouldn't be any wolves there!" Lu Chen said with certainty. After all, the wolves will drag back their dead members and eat them as food. Therefore, Lu Chen was very sure that there were no wolves, not even wolf corpses, where Feng Huai and the others encountered the wolves at this time.

"Keep going!" Lu Chen waved his hand, signaling the team to continue searching.

"Pay attention to protecting your lord!" Regardless of whether what Lu Chen said was right or not, Su Dingfang put the protection of Lu Chen first and directly issued the order. As Su Dingfang's order was issued, the protective circle of the Weiwei soldiers responsible for protecting Lu Chen shrank again. Shrink.

As they continued to move forward, Lu Chen led everyone to a mountain col. They saw pieces of cloth and wolf fur scattered on the ground, and even wolf tails, severed limbs, and brown blood stains on the left and right on the ground, but Not a single wolf carcass was found.

"Sure enough, as your Excellency said, there is not a single wolf corpse!" Peng Zun led the soldiers to search the mountain col, and sure enough, not a single wolf corpse was found. He couldn't help but said in an admiring tone, "How did your Excellency know this place?" Isn't there a wolf corpse?" Peng Zun couldn't help but asked curiously.

"In this winter, there isn't much food to keep the wolves full, so the wolf carcasses are dragged back by the wolves to be used as food!" Lu Chen explained to Peng Zun with a smile, "Besides, the habits of the wolves That’s it, even if it’s not winter, the wolves that die in the wolf pack will be divided and eaten by the wolves, this is their habit!”

"That's it!" After hearing Lu Chen's explanation, everyone nodded.

"Sir, you know so much!" Fang Qichong gave Lu Chen a thumbs up and praised.

"Old Fang, I suspect you are trying to flatter someone!" Meng Ji gave Fang Qi a look of contempt.

"No doubt, this guy is just flattering!" Su Dingfang gave a direct reply in the affirmative.

There was originally some tension in order to be on guard against sneak attacks by wolves, but Fang Qi's words and troubles directly diluted it a lot. Many soldiers also relaxed some of their tense nerves. After all, this was their first time to fight wolves. Work.

At this moment, a wolf howled from behind the mountain, and bursts of noisy "howling" sounds came from the direction behind the mountain.

"It seems there's no need for the tracking technique!" Lu Chen snorted when he heard the howls of the wolves.

"Master, these wolf cubs are obviously provoking us!" Lian Xiude said coldly when he heard the wolves howling.

"No, this is a group of wild wolves preparing to eat the corpses of the same kind!" Lu Chen explained directly. Before the wolves eat the corpses of the same kind, they will form a circle and wail for a while before starting to eat.

"They're killing each other, and they're still wailing. Isn't this hypocrisy?" Peng Zun spat disdainfully, clenched the Tang Dao in his hand and said.

"Let's go! Let's go over and meet these wild wolves!" Lu Chen pulled out the pistol from his waist, loaded the gun with a click, and walked towards the direction of the howling wolves.

The others closely guarded Lu Chen to protect him. As for Fang Qi and Peng Zun, they came directly in front of Lu Chen and led a group of soldiers to clear the way.

When Lu Chen led everyone to the back of the mountain, he saw about thirty wild wolves, surrounding more than twenty wolf corpses, raising their heads and howling non-stop towards the sky.
