"Everyone be vigilant!"
Wang Sihai's expression changed. Could this voice be that of a wild beast?
He hurriedly went to Ying Qingci. This was the person named to be protected. What's more, it was because of him that she came out this time. No matter what, he had to ensure her safety.
"Bai Heng, what's going on?"
"They should be ferocious beasts deep in the mountains. Although there is still some distance from the inner circle, there is no guarantee that they will not come out and move around."
As a detective, Bai Heng still has a certain awareness of the dangers around him.
"Everyone go to the trees first and wait until daybreak before making any judgment."
It was still dark now, and they couldn't see the way forward clearly. It was better to stay where they were, which would also reduce unnecessary trouble.
"Miss Ying, you..."
Bai Heng looked at Ying Qingci in front of him and felt a little embarrassed. Although she hadn't grown up yet, she was a girl after all. He couldn't hug her rashly, right?
Ying Qingci glanced at him, turned around, and climbed directly into the tree.
Bai Heng:......
He co-authored it because he was overthinking it.
However, thinking of the way Ying Qing climbed up the tree with her words, a flash of surprise flashed in Bai Heng's eyes. Is this the posture a normal girl should have?
Are you able to climb trees like this?
But now was obviously not the time to think about this. He walked to Wang Sihai's side and said, "Sir, I'm offended."
After saying that, he led Wang Sihai to find the nearest chestnut tree and flew down on the tree.
Wang Sihai almost screamed in fright, but thinking of the current situation, he covered his mouth tightly.
Not long after that, they heard a rustling sound coming from under the tree, like the sound of wild animals moving.
They held their breath nervously, fearing that they would attract the attention of the unknown beasts below.
Fortunately, those beasts did not stay too long, otherwise, they might not be able to persist. After all, some beasts have a very sensitive sense of smell.
After finally getting to daybreak, everyone in the tree relaxed. After being tense for such a long time, they felt that their bodies were stiff.
"Everyone, don't move for now. I'll go down and investigate."
After saying that, Bai Heng jumped down from the tree, looked around and found no trace of other beasts, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, everyone, come down."
Ying Qingci jumped down first, followed by other agents. Wang Sihai also got down from the tree with the help of the agents.
He also saw the footprints around him, which were obviously left by the group of wild beasts last night. Presumably, they came in this direction because they smelled a strange smell here.
I just couldn't find anyone, so I left again.
"Master Wang, we have to go down the mountain as soon as possible. These footprints are of wolves."
"Wolf?!"
"Well, and there's more than one."
Wang Sihai was shocked. He had heard that there were wolves in some mountains, but he never thought that when they went into the mountains, they would encounter wolves, not just one, but a group of them.
If it weren't for that roar in the middle of the night, they wouldn't have been able to escape the wolves' attack.
The wolves are fast, bloodthirsty and ferocious. With them, there is no way to resist.
"As for those chestnuts, we can only pick them again in a few days."
Now that the wolves have appeared, they will not leave for a short time. For safety, they can only come back after a while to get the remaining chestnuts.
Wang Sihai pondered for a moment and nodded heavily.
"That's all it can do now."
After all, the safety of everyone's lives is also very important.
"Okay, let's set off down the mountain immediately."
"yes!"
Bai Heng led the people to carry all the chestnuts collected yesterday on their backs. Although they only collected it in one afternoon, their group also collected at least a thousand kilograms of chestnuts.
On the way, they could see deep and shallow footprints on the ground. Obviously, the wolves were not walking in this direction, but in another direction.
only……
Nalanyan looked at the ground not far away and frowned deeply.
"Is that...blood stain?"
Bai Heng was exploring the path at the front and naturally noticed the blood stains in the grass not far away.
That's not their blood, then it's the blood of the beasts that passed by last night.
"Sir, there are other footprints here!"
Looking at the footprints on the ground, it came from another direction.
Therefore, in addition to wolves, there are other beasts here.
This realization caused Bai Heng's complexion to change suddenly, and he quickly walked to Wang Sihai's side and told everything he had discovered.
When Ying Qingci heard this, he took a few steps forward and saw the heavy and huge footprints on the ground, and frowned deeply.
"Are these tiger tracks?"
"What?!"
Now there's trouble. In addition to wolves, there are also giant insects on this mountain.
"The bloodstains on the ground are not from wolves, but from tigers."
Obviously, the tiger must have been injured, so it was targeted by the wolves and fled all the way to the outside.
Wang Sihai's face turned pale. Who would have thought that how could their profession be so unlucky? Not only are there wolves, but there are also tigers?
"No, we must go down the mountain immediately!"
I just hope that they don't encounter that tiger, otherwise they will all die here.
Of course, it is possible to be rescued, but a lot of people have to be sacrificed first.
Ying Qingci shook his head, "Master Wang, we don't know where the tiger is now. If we encounter it on the road, the consequences will be disastrous."
"What to do?"
Wang Sihai also knew that if they went down the mountain directly at this time, they would most likely encounter the tiger, but they had no way out now.
"There are woods ahead. Sir, you should hide in the trees first."
"Miss Ying, you...what are you going to do?"
Ying Qingci meant for them to hide, but what about her?
"I'm going to explore the way."
"No!" Wang Sihai swore that he had never lost his temper like this before. After yelling, he coughed slightly in embarrassment, "No, Miss Ying, it's too dangerous. If something happens to you, I can't explain it to your family." .”
And that adult.
"Master Wang, don't worry, I have the ability to protect myself. You don't need to worry, I will be back soon."
After saying this, Ying Qingci left directly, and a voice came over: "Agent Bai, protect Mr. Wang."
"Miss Ying!"
It's a pity that Ying Qingci's figure is very fast.
Ying Qingci's decision was not reckless, but the safest way. If she didn't come out, others would probably die if they encountered the tiger, but she had space. If she was discovered, she could self-destruct.
Wang Sihai is a good official and cannot die. Moreover, if she is the only one to go back alive, it will be very troublesome. Therefore, after thinking about it, the only solution is now.
She went out alone, looking for the safest way.
