Chapter 219

I pulled out a small, transparent porcelain bottle from her white lab coat pocket. Inside was a faint blue liquid."This was extracted from the sample using an advanced hbj biological extraction metho...It's not just humans that attract wolves, but also camels. Desert wolves often prey on camels, and they have learned to follow the scent of their droppings.

This creature is naturally cunning, but not very brave. As long as they deem something dangerous, they generally choose to follow at a distance and observe.

...waiting until the prey relaxes its guard before striking.

After a tense standoff of nearly an hour, the bedding and belongings were burning quickly. Hu Lüshū pulled out some burning bedding and tossed it at the wolves. Afterward, we heard grunts from Hu Shū's throat, a series of low growls that resembled the calls of some wild beast.

Gradually, the leading desert wolf began to retreat, and then the pack of wolves also began to fall back.

Seeing the pack of wolves turn their heads and walk away slowly, everyone couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. We had only been facing off against the wolf pack for just over an hour, but it scared me so much that my back was soaked in sweat.

This is my first time seeing a wild wolf. Dòu zházi has been running at sea for years, he's seen whales and octopus before, but he's never seen a wild wolf, he was also scared out of his wits.

As for Xiao Xuan, it goes without saying that she was completely terrified and overwhelmed. The only one who seemed calm was Hu Shu.

After the pack of wolves left, Hu Shu said this was just the first day. We had been targeted by those beasts. If we didn't take some measures, we would definitely be killed and eaten in the end. Hu Shu said that everything had been burned up, and next time the wolf pack came, we would have no way to defend ourselves.

If you ever encounter a pack of wolves in the wild, don't try to fight them head-on like you see on TV. That's a last resort when you're backed into a corner, and even skilled individuals won't stand a chance against a pack. The more capable you are, the quicker you'll die.

Hu Shu shared his experiences with us.

Firstly, all kinds of wolves are afraid of fire. Fire can be used to ward off wolves.

The sounds he had made before were imitations of a lion's roar, used to scare away wolves.

If you can't learn to roar like a lion, don't run with your back to the wolf pack, and don't shout or scream randomly. At this time, you can use the sound of knocking, knocking on bowls, pots, anything will do. This way, your chances of survival will increase greatly.

As dawn was breaking, Aji ran over and said, “Everyone, you can’t stay here any longer. Uncle says we have to get out of the desert wolf’s territory before nightfall tonight. The desert is different from the grasslands; there are fewer animals here, so the desert wolves have a much larger territory. Uncle says we need to travel at least 200 miles.”

" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Under Hu Lu Shu's urging, everyone packed their things and mounted their camels, starting their journey hoping to leave the territory of the desert wolves before nightfall. Then we would be safe.

Most people see camels as slow-moving creatures, and many might think that camels can't run. However, this is not true. Camels not only run but also run very fast, just as fast as a horse. The top speed of a camel is equivalent to a small car running at 70 miles per hour.

To get a camel to run, just beating it won't do. There's a trick to it. Hu Shū found a piece of red cloth and used a small knife to cut it into small pieces, each the size of a hand.

Hu Shu tied a palm-sized red cloth to the camel's head, then adjusted its position, using the red cloth to block one of the camel's eyes.

The camel was very afraid of the color red. It would run away as soon as it saw bright red. Hu Shu covered one of the camel's eyes with a red cloth, leaving the other eye free for it to see the road.

Then the camel ran.

We also used this method, it works well. If you feel the speed is too fast, just take up the red cloth, and the camel will gradually slow down and become calm.

Thanks to this camel riding trick, we saved a lot of time. We didn't stop for lunch and finally made it out of the desert wolf territory before nightfall.

The environment here is different from the previous place. There are many stones and not much sand. Uncle Huolu said that this place is close to the center of the Alashan Desert, and it will be more than 100 kilometers forward to reach near Har Hoton.

Last night, a lot of things burned down. Now there are only two tents left in the team. After discussion this evening, we decided to give one tent to Xiaoxuan and another to Bazh. Xiaoxuan is a girl, so it’s inconvenient for her. As for Bazh, he is the oldest, so he should have a good rest.

The temperature difference between day and night in the desert is huge. Sleeping on the cold ground was freezing, and I was afraid of being attacked by a pack of wolves. I didn't sleep well all night.

On the third day, we had a long journey.

On the fourth day, we finally arrived at the place that Huolu Shu told us about, near the ruins of Heishui City.ble.">I rolled my eyes, thinking to myself that this person's way of speaking was just like their earlier response—half-hidden and evasive. They had claimed to have plans earlier, but when I asked abo...
