Under the dark night, the moonlight was blocked by the shadow of the trees above, making it difficult to shed its light.
From time to time, I could hear the chirping of various insects, and occasionally the rustling sound of wild animals passing by on the grass.
The small rocks in front were already a little nervous, and the speed accelerated a lot.
Zhang Yue followed behind, constantly identifying the surrounding environment with his ears.
Suddenly, he suddenly took a step forward, grabbed the back of Xiao Shitou's neck, covered his mouth, and let out a small shush.
Little Shitou was frightened at first and wanted to shout.
But when he heard the boos, he immediately fell silent, waiting for Zhang Yue's next reaction.
Zhang Yue's ears moved and he heard a subtle breathing sound.
Then he grabbed the small stone and backed away suddenly, and a black shadow jumped out of the grass with a whoosh.
When he got closer, Zhang Yue could see that it was a black wolf about two meters long, lying in front of him in an attacking posture.
At two meters long, it was considered a giant wolf, but in the eyes of Zhang Yue, who had seen a real behemoth, it was just an ordinary beast.
"How dare a wild wolf regard me as prey?"
Zhang Yue smiled and was about to take action to deal with it, but suddenly his expression turned sideways and he quickly moved aside.
Two black shadows rushed directly from his side and behind.
These turned out to be two wild wolves again.
They even attack in the east and west, using one wild wolf as bait to attract human attention, and two other wild wolves as ambushes to secretly attack.
The breathing sound heard by Zhang Yue before was obviously leaked intentionally by the other party.
If he hadn't been alert and realized something was wrong, the ambush of the two wild wolves behind him might even have been effective.
"This wolf is not simple either. Why are there suddenly so many weird things in this mountain?"
Zhang Yue was confused. The memories of his body were all in his mind. The beasts he had seen before were almost the same as in reality.
However, we encountered alien species one after another on this day. Is it because the task chain was triggered that they kept appearing?
However, if it is related to the task chain, it is really strange that this wild wolf did not trigger the task.
Is it because of the beast tide?
Although Zhang Yue was confused, he also knew that this was not the time to think blindly.
He directly pulled out the machete from his waist, stepped forward, and headed towards a wild wolf.
At this time, the three wild wolves gathered together and attacked him.
Two wild wolves rushed towards him, one on the left and one on the right, biting his legs.
Another one jumped up directly and was about to rush towards Zhang Yue's face.
The three wild wolves cooperated to kill each other, almost like the best soldiers in the army working together, with unlimited killing intent.
But Zhang Yue's move with the knife hit the wild wolf's soft belly directly, and was directly cut open by the machete, and the life force quickly disappeared from its body.
But Zhang Yue hit him with a knife, and without stopping, he quickly jumped forward to avoid the splash of blood, and also let his legs avoid the sharp teeth of the wild wolf.
The wild wolf, which failed to bite, turned around and rushed towards Zhang Yue, regardless of the death of its companion.
The two wild wolves were full of ferocity, and they had strong suppressive power when facing humans who fell to the ground.
But at this moment, Zhang Yue had already put down the machete in his hand, wrapped his fists with inner energy, and swung them forward.
The powerful momentum even caused him to get up from his half-lying position on the ground, and the two sides met in an instant.
The head of the wild wolf is the hardest part, but at this moment, it suddenly exploded under Zhang Yue's fist.
The inner energy is an extraordinary force. Steel can be broken under his fists, let alone just a skull.
Without the protection of the skull, the fragile and tender brain of the wild wolf could not withstand the subsequent bombardment, and the entire head was crushed in an instant.
The two headless wild wolves were almost hanging on Zhang Yue's arms, their bodies swaying and gradually sliding down.
"this……"
Xiao Shitou, who was standing aside, looked dumbfounded as he watched all this.
At this moment, he finally believed Zhou Yi, the head of Zhoucun, who said that this Xiaowu was definitely the most powerful hunter he had ever seen.
Facing the sneak attack of three wild wolves, being able to deal with them so quickly is not something ordinary hunters can do.
At least the hunters in my own village couldn't do it.
"No matter how strong that man-eating tiger is, he finally met his opponent!"
Xiao Shitou felt a surge of joy in his heart and hurriedly came forward to help Zhang Yue clean up his body.
"It's not urgent. Let's go to your village first to see the situation."
Zhang Yue shook his hand to shake off some of the dirt hanging on it, casually pulled a few leaves and wiped it, and then continued walking towards Xiaowang Village with Xiao Shitou.
After killing the three wild wolves that attacked by surprise, the road ahead became much smoother.
Ten minutes later, they arrived outside Xiaowang Village.
It's just that Xiaowang Village is a little different from what Zhang Yue imagined.
He originally thought that after encountering the threat of man-eating tigers, defensive buildings, such as fences or walls, would be built around the village.
But now it seems that all these are gone, and any beast seems to be able to enter and exit unimpeded.
"Ever since the man-eating tiger came, the village's defense has not been effective."
Xiao Shitou saw that Zhang Yue was a little confused and quickly stepped forward to answer his question, "That tiger has been eyeing the whole village since it ate people."
"Whenever I'm hungry, I'll come over and pick someone up and eat him."
"We tried every means to defend ourselves, but it had no effect on the tiger."
"It is so powerful that it can smash through the door with just one claw and snatch people away from the house."
"In the end, as a last resort, everyone gathered in the underground warehouse and demolished other defensive buildings to strengthen the warehouse."
Xiao Shitou's words made Zhang Yue frown. A tiger with such strength was indeed terrifying.
In other words, the entire Xiaowang Village people are actually hiding in the underground warehouse, relying on this to temporarily resist the tiger's attack.
But how long can this last, and are the tigers nearby?
When Zhang Yue entered Xiaowang Village, his vigilance was at its highest.
It can be seen from Xiao Shitou's words that this tiger is extremely terrifying, and its strength is at least comparable to the previous giant bear.
After Xiao Shitou entered the village, he sped up and ran. Soon he led Zhang Yue into a tunnel and climbed into the ground along a passage that could only accommodate one person.
Finally, he knocked hard on a stone door: "Village Chief, Village Chief, I'm back!"
The little stone's call attracted the attention of the people behind the stone door.
They took a look through the gap in the stone door and found Xiao Shitou standing at the door with an unknown person. They breathed a sigh of relief.
Several villagers tried their best to open the stone door and let Zhang Yue and Xiao Shitou in.
"This is Xiao Wu, the hunter from Zhoucun, he is amazing!"
Xiao Shitou proudly introduced Zhang Yue to the surrounding villagers.
Just when Zhang Yue wanted to say something modest, a sneer came from not far away: "What a powerful person, show me!"
Several men with sinister expressions stood up from the stone bench not far away and looked over with unruly expressions.
