es and wood.Our temporary resting place was next to that small earthen mound because there were relatively fewer plants in that area.Staying by the fire, around 2:30 in the morning, my eyelids were ge...That night, as everyone else drifted into a deep sleep in the latter half of the night, I was only lightly asleep when suddenly I heard a howl, sounding just like a wolf's cry.

I was so scared that I jumped up instantly, all sleepiness vanished.

After waking up, I saw Old Uncle Hu standing by the fire. He looked around nervously with a worried expression on his face.

At this time, Qin Xingping and Ajie also came out. It seemed that they had also heard the wolf's howl.

Huo Lu Shu's face was gloomy as he explained a few things.

Aji translated nervously: "Uncle said this is a desert wolf, very dangerous. We have to be careful."

">

" Let me know if you'd like to translate something else!

I swallowed nervously and asked Aji how there could be wolves in the desert.

Aji said, "Of course. Desert wolves are a type of gray wolf, not as large as prairie wolves, only a little bigger than foxes, but desert wolves are more ferocious than prairie wolves. In order to adapt to the desert environment, desert wolves have not only reduced their body size, but also evolved a pair of large ears that can hear even the slightest movement in the wind."

I nervously glanced around. Besides the fire, everything was pitch black, and all I could hear was the whooshing of the wind blowing through the sand.

I woke up Dou Zai and Xiao Xuan, saying don't sleep, there are wolves around.

Xiaoxuan was frightened when she heard the word "wolf."

Just then, Ho-lu suddenly picked up a stone from the ground and threw it forward.

Only then did we see, a couple of hundred meters away, several small green dots appearing.

That is the eyes of a desert gray wolf.

Hu Lu Shu brought a sheep-killing knife. He held the knife in his hand and anxiously turned to speak to us.

Aji nodded and translated, "Uncle said to take out all our weapons. Wolves are very difficult to deal with once they have set their sights on prey. They see us as prey."

I brought a small knife, and Douzi directly took out two whirlwind shovels and threw them to Qin Xingping. Everyone's faces sank as they looked ahead.

Over a hundred meters away, it was like turning on countless green light bulbs. What made things even more nerve-wracking was the sight of those green eyes swarming from all directions, slowly creeping towards us.

Those green eyes crept closer to within fifty meters, causing everyone who saw the sight to gasp and clutch their weapons tightly.

It is indeed a pack of wolves.

These wolves weren't very big, about the same size as a dog. Their gray fur made them look thin. The leaders of the pack were crouched down, sharpening their claws and letting out low growls.

The desert wolf's attack was sudden and very fast. We were still considering the opponent, when ten or so gray wolves rushed over!

Aji shouted: "Fall back! Retreat! Back to the bonfire!"

The desert wolves are afraid of fire, so we all gathered around the bonfire and the pack didn't come any closer. They scattered and circled us at a distance.

However, after all, it was a night fire, and without adding more fuel, it couldn't burn for long. As the flames began to dwindle, Hu Lu Shu directly tore apart the closest bean sprout baby blanket and threw it, along with its bedding, onto the fire.

The flames surged instantly, scaring away a dozen desert wolves who retreated in fear. Everyone knew that if they truly fought this beast to the death, people would die; any one of them could be bitten and killed.

None of us want to see that kind of result. In a panic, we could only find everything that could be burned and throw it into the fire, keeping the flames burning fiercely all the time.bullets one by one into the clip.With a vein throbbing on his forehead, he whispered to us, "Remember, follow my instructions."">I gripped the whirlwind shovel in my hand, swallowed hard, and stared i...
