"Don’t speak!"
Gu Tong pointed to the large wolf dog not far away.
A dog’s hearing is sixteen tis more sensitive than a human’s.
Discussing such matters this close was clearly unwise.
Zhao Yong understood. After receiving the command, he hurriedly shut his mouth. However, while he could control his mouth, he couldn’t control his body. With a forceful step, he snapped a dry branch underfoot.
But that one sound was enough to startle the prey!
"Woof woof woof!"
Three large wolf dogs barked frantically, calling out to their owner.
Damn it!
The two felt a chill in their hearts.
The owner of this guesthouse, Huang Shou, was also a smart guy. Hearing the barking, he imdiately grabbed his hunting equipnt and rushed out. He knew well enough that it couldn’t be his old gambling buddies, as his wolf dogs knew them and would stop barking after a single yap!
This place is so remote. If it’s not a friend, who else would co? Adhering to the principle of caution, he loaded his hunting equipnt!
"Who’s there? Co out!"
Huang Shou’s skin was dark, and his eyes bulged wide. Holding his equipnt, he stood at the door, exuding an intimidating presence.
"Woof woof woof!"
The three large wolf dogs barked toward where Gu Tong and Zhao Yong were hiding. Dogs can distinguish sounds from thirty-two different directions, and at the first bark, they knew the direction.
Huang Shou aid his equipnt at that direction, saying, "Roaming around my house in the middle of the night, sneaking about — aren’t you up to no good? Step out, let see if I know you!"
There was still no movent from the bushes. They remained hidden, seemingly waiting for this farce to end.
"Damn it! Hiding, are you? Believe it or not, I’ll release the dogs on you. My wolf dogs are fierce, fed with raw at, they’re excellent at guarding the house. One bite and you’ll see the bone!"
As Huang Shou’s words hit the ground, Zhao Yong trembled, looking to Gu Tong for help, desperately needing her input.
Gu Tong glared at him but said nothing, still contemplating a solution!
"I’ll give you a count of three to think, if not, I’ll release the dogs!"
Huang Shou stepped back a few paces, his hand already on the dog chain, seeming ready to unleash them, saying, "Three!"
Zhao Yong’s palms were sweaty, gripping the laser tightly.
"Two!"
Huang Shou had already undone the dog chain, about to let go!
"One!"
As soon as he said it, just when Huang Shou was about to release, Zhao Yong also prepared to act.
A figure erged from the bushes, accompanied by a hurried voice, saying, "Big brother, don’t release the dogs... I an no harm..."
The one who stood up was none other than Gu Tong. At this mont, she wore villager’s clothes and a large mask covering her entire face, appearing in the night. If she claid no ill intentions, that would be hard to believe.
Huang Shou finally had soone to aim at. He targeted Gu Tong, saying, "What are you sneaking around my house for!"
"Big brother, this is a long story, can’t be explained in a sentence or two. But please believe , I’m just passing by, with no other intentions..." Gu Tong waved her hands urgently, the explanation more earnest.
"Believe you! I’d have to be crazy! I’ve moved around enough in the gambling world, I have a few enemies, too. Many would wish to set up for money! Perhaps you with ulterior motives wish to trick , but you didn’t expect that I’m a tough bone to gnaw! Not easy, is it!"
