Traveling through time and space, wanting to lie down, but being forced to move forward

Chapter 267 The wolves descend from the mountain (3)

Seeing the wolf getting closer and closer to her, Liu Jingxue quickly discarded all the random thoughts in her mind and continued to kill the wolf.

After killing the eighth wolf with one arrow, she finally pointed her arrow at the leader.

Upon realizing that it had become Liu Jingxue's new target, the leader wolf howled as if calling on others to protect it.

It kept running left and right, trying to escape being hunted.

However, how could these actions of its be able to defeat Liu Jingxue who had the cheating device of spiritual consciousness?

Using her spiritual sense to suppress the wolf leader, Liu Jingxue shot an arrow and successfully killed the wolf leader.

Uncle Ji had been staring at the wolf leader, wanting to kill it, but the wolf leader had been hiding behind the other wolves, and he was unable to kill it. After discovering that Liu Jingxue had shot and killed the wolf leader, he quickly reminded the villagers,

"Liu Zhiqing shot the leader of the wolves, and the remaining wolves are probably going to retreat.

Let's work harder and keep them all.

Wolves are the most vengeful, so we can't let them run back.

Otherwise, they will bring more wolves to retaliate against the village next time."

Sure enough, after the leader wolf fell to the ground, the few remaining wolves did not attack as desperately as before, and some were even retreating slowly.

When Liu Jingxue heard that wolves could take such a bold move as revenge, she no longer cared about her previous idea of ​​training the villagers. She bent her bow and drew her arrow, aiming at the wolves that were trying to escape.

The villagers who were besieging a wolf were also determined not to let the wolf escape from their encirclement.

Thanks to the efforts of the villagers, all twenty-one wolves that entered the village were kept alive.

Liu Jingxue used her spiritual sense to search and confirmed that no fish had escaped.

The villagers present also moved forward, searching carefully for other wolves that had not been hunted.

After a thorough search, no other wolves were found.

The carcasses of the slaughtered wolves were also gathered together, a total of twenty-one.

"Did everyone notice that no wolf broke through our defense line and rushed into the village just now?" Uncle Ji asked loudly.

"Those who didn't break through our defense were stopped by us."

Ji Shihu looked at the strong laborers at the scene.

There were thirty or forty people who came with them, and later more villagers arrived. By now there were fifty or sixty strong laborers.

The weapons in their hands were varied. There were five or six hunting rifles, a dozen people holding bows and arrows, and other villagers holding hoes, axes, machetes, and rakes.

But don't underestimate the hoes, axes, machetes and other weapons in these people's hands. Some of the wolves that were killed had traces of these weapons on their bodies.

It seems that they were all killed in close combat by the villagers.

Knowing that no wolf had run to the back, Uncle Ji asked again, "Is anyone injured?"

Everyone looked at each other, "No one was hurt."

Uncle Ji breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that everything would be fine as long as no one was injured.

“Dad, since these wolves don’t belong to the wolf pack, why don’t we follow the trail into the mountains and kill them all.

Otherwise, keeping them would be a disaster." Ji Shihu said.

"Yes, Uncle Ji, the remaining wolves will definitely send wolves to look for us when they see that the wolves that came here did not go back.

Wolves have very sensitive noses and can definitely find our village by following the smell.

If we don’t get rid of them all, they will definitely come back to retaliate.”

Uncle Ji shook his head and said, "We can't go into the mountains.

We were able to deal with these wolves just now only because we had the advantage of terrain and were only attacked from one side.

And with the help of Liu Zhiqing, he was able to deal with so many wolves by himself.

If we go into the mountains, we don't know where the wolves will suddenly appear from. By then, we will be attacked from all sides and we will not be their match.

And there are not only one group of wolves in the mountains, but also other ferocious beasts.

It has been snowing for nearly two months. The wolves in the mountains are running out of food, and we don’t know how many wild beasts have come out from the mountains to look for food.

We went in with hoes and axes, just to deliver the vegetables."

"Then what should we do? We can't just sit and wait for those wolves to come to us.

If they come in droves or come down the mountain from all over, we will be exhausted." A villager said in frustration.

Uncle Ji shook his head and said affirmatively, "It is definitely not possible to just sit and wait, we can only take the initiative.

But we certainly can’t do it alone.

I'll go talk to the captain and see if I can ask the higher-ups to ask the troops to step in.

After all, they have guns in their hands and are well-trained, which is beyond the reach of us peasants."

Uncle Ji ordered, "Leave some people here to guard, to prevent more wolves from coming down from behind.

Some people come and transport these wolf carcasses back to see how the captain arranges it."

Liu Jingxue said quickly, "It's too cold outside, let's split into several shifts to take turns guarding.

If you see a wolf coming down the mountain, just shout.

Those who are not on duty can go to my place to warm themselves by the fire."

Everyone agreed after hearing this because it was too cold outside.

Uncle Ji led a few people and dragged the wolf's body away on a sled.

After the others discussed it, some of them stayed to guard not far from the foot of the mountain, while the others followed Liu Jingxue to her place.

After Liu Jingxue got home, she asked someone to get some firewood from the woodshed and deliver it to those people.

Let them light a bonfire, both for lighting and to warm themselves.

The room was too small, and there was no room for so many people to stand inside.

After everyone cleared some of the snow, they lit a bonfire in the middle of the yard to keep warm.

Uncle Ji led his men, dragging the wolf's corpse, to the drying dam to find the team leader and told him his plan.

After discussing with several village cadres, the team leader made a decision.

“We will keep half of these wolf carcasses in our village, and send the remaining half to the commune.

Let the commune help us contact the army and ask them to send people to help us go into the mountains and clear them out."

At this time, Liu Jingxue was at home listening to other villagers chatting.

"Do you think the troops will come to help us clear out the mountains?"

"Definitely.

Other production teams had experienced wild beasts descending from the mountains before, and later soldiers went into the mountains to help clear them out.”

Tuanzi's voice rang in Liu Jingxue's mind, "Master, have you forgotten that there are soldiers in the mountains tracking Li Jie and his gang?

If another troop enters the mountain, what should we do if we run into them? Will we alert the enemy?"

Yes, how could I have forgotten about this.

What if they run into Li Jie and his gang and alarm them?

All the hard work of those comrades for more than a month has been in vain.

But it is unlikely to stop the troops from entering the mountains.

After all, according to the villagers, the wolves were definitely here to take revenge, and they couldn't just leave them alone.

If I proposed to go and solve the problem alone, they would definitely not agree.

"Tuanzi, what do you think we should do now?"

“Master, the production team sent someone to ask for help, and the ones who came to help must be the nearest garrison.

Even if the soldiers who were tracking Li Jie were not from the same unit as them, there must be connections between the armies.

Why don't you go to that yard and find those military comrades to see if they have sent anyone to stay there and tell them the news.

See if they can contact the garrison here and ask the patrolmen to avoid the area where Li Jie and his men are now."

"You're right, I have to deliver a message.

If there is no one left there, I will call Grandpa Zhang and ask him to notify the troops.

Those soldiers were contacted through him, and he must have a way to notify the troops."
