"Fool." Lin Chuan hugged Tang Yung, saying, "I really wish we could watch the sunset together like this every day."
"Do you think we will still do this when we're old?" Tang Yung asked.
"Of course!" Lin Chuan nodded earnestly, saying, "We definitely will."
As the distant sky turned utterly dark, night officially fell.
Awooo...
Suddenly, a howl emanated from deep within the forest.
It was as if this howl warned all creatures in the forest that from this mont on, the master of this forest was itself. The mont Lin Chuan heard the howl, his expression visibly changed.
In his heart, Lin Chuan couldn't help but think: 'Could I really be that unlucky? To have so easily encountered a pack of wolves?'
This howl was obviously from the alpha wolf. Moreover, according to Lin Chuan's experience, it must have found prey and was thus calling its pack. Judging by the sound, it seed not too far from where he was.
"What's wrong?" Tang Yung asked curiously, "Why so tense? Could it be that you're afraid of the dark?"
"Ah..." Lin Chuan's train of thought was interrupted by Tang Yung, and he imdiately laughed, saying: "Yeah, I'm afraid of the dark. Sister, you will have to protect ."
"Hehe..." Tang Yung imdiately covered her mouth and giggled, saying: "A big guy like you, afraid of the dark? Don't worry, I'll protect you!"
Having said that, Tang Yung pulled Lin Chuan towards the mountain's base.
After jumping down from a rock, the two of them headed towards their campsite. The site was about a kiloter away. It was fine in the dayti, but at night, mountain paths were not easy to navigate. Fortunately, Lin Chuan had brought a high-power flashlight.
A bright beam of light dispelled the darkness as they walked hand in hand down the mountain.
At this mont, Lin Chuan had a bad premonition, and it made him feel sowhat uneasy.
During the whole journey, Lin Chuan was very cautious. Conversely, Tang Yung humd a tune, not bothered by the earlier howl, as if it was just another natural sound of the forest.
Seeing how cautious Lin Chuan was, Tang Yung couldn't help but laugh: "Who would have thought you'd be so afraid of the dark?"
"Yes!" Lin Chuan nodded in haste, saying: "Sister, be careful."
"I'm not scared at all." Tang Yu shook her head.
Lin Chuan didn't want to alarm Tang Yung. Of course, the most important thing was that he also couldn't ascertain how far away the alpha wolf was. Perhaps, they had just found other prey because, after all, the forest was so large they couldn't have just happened upon him.
However, upon arriving at the campsite, Lin Chuan imdiately beca dismayed. When his flashlight shone on the tent, he instantly spotted pairs of green, glowing eyes staring back at him, with so wolves tearing into the beef stored in the food bags. Even the trash bags had been ripped apart, and they were gnawing on the bones inside.
"Ah!" Tang Yung was stunned by the pairs of green eyes and exclaid, "Lin Chuan, what... what is all this?"
"Sister, don't be afraid." Lin Chuan hugged Tang Yung quickly and then said, "These are wolves."
"Ah?!" Tang Yung was so frightened she nearly fainted.
Only then did Tang Yung rember that when they were climbing the mountain, two villagers had ntioned that there were wolf packs in the mountains. At the ti, they didn't take it to heart, but who would have thought they would be so lucky to run into them.
"What do we do? What do we do?" Tang Yung was terrified.
"Don't be afraid." Lin Chuan said to Tang Yung with a smile, "Isn't it good that I'm here?"
"But, there are so many wolves here." Tang Yung was petrified, and upon a swift glance, she could see more than ten wolves. These wolves had stopped fighting over the beef and instead were staring at Lin Chuan and Tang Yung with their green eyes.
At this mont, a bulky wolf erged from the pack, the alpha wolf with a more piercing gaze and a bulkier body than the others.
Lin Chuan squinted, pulling a dagger from his trouser leg. He grinned and said, "It's been a long ti since I've had wolf at. Finally, I can have a feast."
"What... what did you say?" Tang Yung exclaid.
"Sister, fancy so wolf at?" Lin Chuan asked.
"I don't!" Tang Yung shook her head quickly.
"Heh heh." Lin Chuan laughed and said, "I do."
Awooo...
At this mont, the alpha wolf leapt onto a rock and howled at the sky.
At this mont, the rest of the wolves behind also began to snarl angrily. The pack showed their fangs and started scratching the ground as if they were ready to attack. Lin Chuan scoffed and said, "A bunch of beasts dare to offend ."
Suddenly, a wolf lunged towards Lin Chuan.
It was fast, like a flash of lightning.
"Good timing." Lin Chuan roared.
Lin Chuan's figure flashed, charging forward with a leap, grabbing the wolf's neck with his left hand, while his right plunged the dagger deep.
Pshht...
Blood splattered. Lin Chuan's dagger stabbed straight into the wolf's eye, piercing the eyeball and viciously entering the wolf's brain.
Wuu wuu...
The wolf let out a miserable howl and quickly collapsed. Lin Chuan was holding the wolf, which weighed more than twenty kilograms, with one hand.
Bang...
Lin Chuan flung the wolf away.
The strong and robust alpha wolf stood on a rock. It stared at Lin Chuan with a pair of keen eyes, the look in its eyes revealing a touch of madness and disdain. At this mont, the alpha wolf howled again.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
More than a dozen wolves rushed out rapidly, so darting out of the underbrush, catching Lin Chuan off guard.
If it were just Lin Chuan alone, he would've had no pressure dealing with this pack of wolves. However, now he had Tang Yung with him. This seed to restrain his movents. He needed to protect Tang Yung while also confronting so many wolves at the sa ti.
"Sis, hold onto ." Lin Chuan hugged Tang Yung's waist with one arm and quickly leaped out.
"Ah!" Tang Yung exclaid in shock.
All of a sudden, her body was being carried by another, fixed in place as though. Lin Chuan's speed was greatly reduced as a result. He could only retreat quickly. More than a dozen wolves surrounded Lin Chuan in an instant, leaving no way out.
"Damn it." Lin Chuan cursed through gritted teeth.
From the looks of it, the wolves seed to intend to gobble up both him and Tang Yung. Lin Chuan glanced around swiftly, his eyes imdiately landing on the tent, and he hurriedly said, "Sis, hold tight, I'm getting you into the tent."
"Okay." Tang Yung clenched her teeth and persisted. Her whole body was nearly supported by Lin Chuan's right arm.
Lin Chuan, fighting with one hand, faced the swiftly pouncing pack of wolves. With only one hand, he wielded a dagger and unleashed a frenzied slaughter.
However, since he was constrained by Tang Yung's body, his speed was significantly reduced. This ant the wolves had plenty of opportunities to strike.
Suddenly. A wolf on the left sprang out of the underbrush at great speed.
The wolf bared its wide jaws, its limbs tucked in as it leaped at great speed. Its gleaming eyes fixed on Tang Yung's throat.
"Ah!" Tang Yung scread out, terrified, and instinctively shut her eyes tight.
Seeing this, Lin Chuan realized it was already too late to react.
Lin Chuan hurriedly let go of Tang Yung, and as her body fell, his fist shot forward.
Thud...
The wolf's teeth imdiately sank into Lin Chuan's fist.
Splurt...
Lin Chuan showed no rcy, driving the dagger into the wolf's throat and with a swift pull, the wolf's throat was severed in an instant.
Whimper...
The wolf emitted a whimpering sound. Blood gushed from its throat and after several convulsions, it died and stopped moving completely.
"Lin Chuan, you're injured," Tang Yung exclaid in alarm.
"It's nothing," Lin Chuan shook his head.
Tang Yung looked at the unceasing flow of blood from Lin Chuan's fist, an injury that appeared quite frightening to her. But for Lin Chuan, such a wound was trivial. A bullet grazing past his heart wouldn't be a major issue, let alone a wolf bite, right?
Lin Chuan said hastily, "Sis, I'll cover you, run into the tent quickly."
"Okay." Tang Yung nodded eagerly. She understood that staying would not help Lin Chuan at all, but would instead only be a burden to him.
Lin Chuan grabbed Tang Yung's arm and dashed forward in a burst, and the pack of wolves instantly closed in from behind.
Whoosh whoosh...
Several wolves leaped out from behind. Lin Chuan already had a hunch, and at the mont these wolves pounced, he unleashed a sidewards kick.
Bang bang...
Suddenly, two wolves were kicked away by Lin Chuan.
Howl howl...
After landing, the two wolves let out a series of miserable howls. At such a critical mont, Lin Chuan naturally did not hold back; each kick was ruthlessly powerful, dealing lethal blows. One of the wolves had several ribs broken by Lin Chuan's kick.
"Beast, co on," Lin Chuan sneered coldly.
The wolves' assault was sharp. As the two wolves fell back, the others quickly lunged forward, emitting fierce growls. Lin Chuan held a dagger in one hand and had to protect Tang Yung with the other. He planned to get Tang Yung into the tent and then deal with these beasts once he could fight freely.
With Tang Yung constraining him, Lin Chuan was practically unable to contend with the pack of wolves.
Rip...
After several wolves leaped towards him, the dagger in Lin Chuan's hand instantly tore through the hide of one.
Wolf hides are thick, and ordinary knives find it hard to pierce their skin. However, the dagger in Lin Chuan's hand was no ordinary weapon; with one strike, it tore open the hide of a wolf, and even its muscle tissue, causing blood to surge forth. The injured wolf whimpered and quickly retreated.
