Faced with fire and unknown opponents, wolves will not attack immediately. They will first slowly approach and surround them, and then wait for an opportunity to attack in groups.
But the hunter is hunting, and the hunted is also hunting.
The girl who rushed over suddenly had a nimble and light figure. The frozen stream looked like flat ground to her, and she jumped across the bank in an instant.
The wolves did not hesitate and immediately faced them. The whip in the girl's hand shot through the air and accurately struck the eyes of the wolves on both sides. At the same time, the dagger in her hand struck at the head of the alpha wolf.
The wolves have the most primitive ferocity and murderous nature. Even if their eyes are in severe pain, they still pounce madly.
But girls are not lone wolves either.
Shen Lie followed closely behind, and the spear in his hand instantly pierced the wild wolf rushing towards him from the right.
As blood spattered, fierce howls were heard from the front, and the alpha wolf struggled violently under Xia Zhaoyi's dagger.
The wolves were cruel and ferocious, but the girl did not give in. She pressed down with her hand, and the dagger penetrated even more into the flesh. The first wolf howled and died tragically.
As soon as the leader wolf died, the group of wolves became frightened. Some turned around and ran away, while others still charged forward without stopping.
But in front of two top human masters, especially masters who are good at surviving in the wild, these wild wolves soon became undead by the sword.
Xu Li and Kang Jian trotted up behind them, and saw Shen Lie squatting on the ground, tying the wild wolf's body together with cork branches.
Xia Zhaoyi and his methods were clean and neat. These wild wolves died quickly, but although there were not many wounds, there was still a lot of blood splattered.
Shen Lie's hands were no longer as white as before and were covered with wolf blood. Xu Li and Kang Jian immediately stepped forward: "Master, let's do this!"
Shen Lie stood up and looked at Xia Zhaoyi: "Will those wolves that escaped take revenge?"
"Yes, but by the time they recover, we won't be here anymore."
"That's not right," Xu Li said, "The young master and I will still take this road..."
"This road is very far," Xia Zhaoyi said, "We came here to avoid the wind and snow. When you return, there will be snow here. Plus, this rugged mountain road will make it even harder to walk. Maybe it's not as good as The original path."
"Then the original path..."
"Listen to Ah Li." Shen Lie said.
Xu Li then stopped and nodded obediently.
Xia Zhaoyi felt embarrassed and looked at Shen Lie: "The original road may be even more windy and snowy, but in comparison, it will be better than here. Then you and Xu Li will have a hard time."
"Ah Li, I came here on my own initiative." Shen Lie said in a deep voice.
Xia Zhaoyi looked at the bunch of wolf corpses mentioned by Kang Jian and Xu Li, sighed softly, and said, "Let's go."
Shen Lie closed his thick eyebrows lightly and wanted to ask her why she sighed. In fact, Xia Zhaoyi didn't know why.
After returning, Xu Li and Kang Jian placed the wolf corpse by the river. Shen Lie washed his hands in the river water they dug out. Just when his fingers touched the ice water, he was suddenly held by the girl's soft hand: "Goodbye."
Warmth instantly hit the skin that touched each other. While pouring into the heart, it instantly spread to the limbs and bones.
After years of training, Shen Lie became accustomed to taking everything into his own hands and forcing himself to become a senior hunter.
But in front of her, he had no hardness at all. When he touched her eyebrows, the softness in his heart poured out. It wasn't that he didn't want to pretend, but that he couldn't pretend at all.
"Wait," Xia Zhaoyi said, "Wait for warm water, it doesn't need to be too hot, just boil it and it'll be good."
"I'm not afraid of the cold." Shen Lie said, but he didn't say the last part because he didn't like getting dirty.
Xia Zhaoyi stretched out his fingers: "My hands are also dirty, but they have frostbite."
Shen Lie looked down, paused, gently raised his hand, and his fingertips touched the red bump on her finger.
The girl's hands are slender and slender, but there are large and small spots from the wrist to the fingertips.
Shen Lie did not dare to touch other places and gently held the red sore on her index finger. Xia Zhaoyi's finger suddenly trembled slightly, as if it had been pricked by a needle. The amplitude was not large, but it was obvious.
Shen Lie raised his eyes and looked at her.
"Uh..." Xia Zhaoyi blinked, "It feels weird."
"..."
Xia Zhaoyi looked towards the river, wondering what he was thinking, then turned his eyes and looked towards Shen Lie.
"By the way, I haven't finished what I just said," Xia Zhaoyi said, "Chilblains are itchy and painful, so just bear with it and wash it when the water is warm."
"Yeah." Shen Lie nodded.
Xia Zhaoyi moved her lips, as if she wanted to speak but was holding back.
Shen Lie wanted to know what she was thinking, but he felt that it would definitely not be those romantic things.
Her eyes were too pure and clean, without any deep meaning.
"Miss Ali," Kang Jian came over at this time and asked, "Do we still need to skin these wolves? Do we need to boil hot water and scald them?"
Xia Zhaoyi looked over there and said, "Leave it alone for now, I'll deal with it later."
