It was already time for the Xiong Niu and Wu Xian warriors to take turns, and about ten of them fell asleep.
It was almost dawn, and the wolves who had been waiting under the tree had lost their patience. A trace of violence flashed in the eyes of the alpha wolf, and he raised his head and howled loudly.
Several wolves heard the order, and a strong gray wolf ran under the tree, and then a few more came. They climbed up the tree like a stack of Arhats, one on top of the other.
The mountain rat looked at the dim light below and sneered, "You damn thing, just climb up if you can."
Before he finished speaking, he raised the spear in his hand and stabbed it down hard. The spear hit the head of the wolf stacked on top. "Ouch~" The wolf let out a scream and fell to the ground with a bang.
Several also fell to the ground.
Li raised the spear and arrow in his hand and threw it at the wolves, "Buzz~" The spear and arrow whizzed away at the wolf squatting on the ground. When the first wolf saw the spear and arrow coming, he quickly dodged to avoid it, and the first wolf dodged.
spear arrows,
The one behind couldn't avoid it, and the spear and arrow hit it in the thigh. "Ouch!" The wolf that was hit by the arrow let out a miserable howl.
The mountain rat and two other companions raised their bows and shot at the wolves. "Ouch!" Two more wolves were hit by arrows. The wooden arrows hit the wolves' stomachs and eyes. The two wolves howled in pain and ran around.
Wooden arrows were shot at the wolves like raindrops. Two more wolves were shot and howled horribly. The first wolf was unwilling to fight, "Ooo~!" with a long roar, leading the wolves to flee quickly deep into the forest.
Seeing that the wolves had retreated, Shan Shu and Li stood on the tree and looked at Jiang Li's camp, knowing in their hearts that there was still a tough battle to be fought.
The four of them knew in their hearts that they had no chance of winning against dozens of fierce warriors.
Jiang Li and Mu Feng stood in front of the fence, looking calmly at the wolves that were fleeing with the leader, without making any movement.
Wolf meat has a strong smell, and wolves are the most vindictive beasts. There is plenty of food in the forest, and they don't want to waste energy hunting wolves.
However, those on the tree must be caught. If you are not afraid of thieves stealing them, you are afraid that thieves will miss you.
The leopard and the bull looked at the hiding places of the mountain rats, holding a piece of dried meat and chewing it slowly, "Mufeng, do you want to do it now?"
"Do it!" Mu Feng picked up his bow and arrow and got out of the fence.
Leopard and Muba followed with weapons in hand.
Mu Feng shouted: "Shan Shu, aren't you here to take revenge on us? Why are you hiding? Come down if you can!"
Whoosh! Several wooden arrows shot toward the wooden wind.
Mufeng shot down the wooden arrow with his spear. Leopard and Muba had already climbed into the tree, and they shot at the four mountain rats.
"Ah~!" A shrill scream sounded, and several arrows stuck in the mountain rat's body fell down.
Then Su and three others also fell to the ground.
The bull and several warriors pulled out the arrows from the four men, dragged them to the mountain stream in front, and threw them down.
At this time, a ray of sunlight shone through the bare treetops, and everyone cheered.
"Oh! The sun is coming out! The sun is coming out!"
The long-lost sunshine made a group of warriors hug each other and jump up like children.
You Lu waved his hand and shouted: "Brothers, let's catch more food before the river surface thaws."
Mufeng raised his spear and said, "Let's go hunting!"
Jiang Li and You Lu each left a small team of warriors to guard the camp, and rushed towards the forest with their men.

When people by the Ninghe River saw the sun coming out, they felt they saw hope, and everyone laughed and danced happily. Everyone found that the sun seemed a little shy, showed a smiling face, and then disappeared into the clouds.
Yao Xiaoqing stood on the roof looking east, sighed, turned around and went downstairs.
A Que hurriedly ran in, "Xiao Qing, the leader of Shishan sent someone to invite you, saying that all the people in their tribe are suffering from diarrhea."
"All have diarrhea?" Yao Xiaoqing thought for a moment and suddenly understood.
Those people must have eaten and drank a lot of fatty meat last night. They have been hungry for so long, so they would eat fatty food as soon as they come here. It would be strange if they don't have diarrhea.
She took some wood incense, dried ginger... and went to the Wuxian tribe. Seeing that the people's diarrhea was not severe, she gave the medicine to Shi Shan and asked him to boil the medicine and give it to those people to drink.
Shi Shan rubbed his hands and looked at Yao Xiaoqing sheepishly, "Qing Wu, thank you. I know you and your father called us together to help us."
Yao Xiaoqing smiled slightly, "Chief Shishan, we are allies! We should take care of each other."
Shishan nodded and said: "Yes, we should take care of each other." He knew in his heart that among the Wuxian tribe, only the Yaoshan tribe took care of them.
Yao Xiaoqing waited for a while at the Wuxian tribe and saw that the people were getting better gradually, then he took Ah Que and An Nuan back up the mountain.
When passing through a pine forest, she saw thick snow pressing on the pine trees, and many pine branches were broken. She felt that after the snow melted, many trees in the forest that were afraid of the cold would be frozen to death.
In the afternoon, the bright sunshine finally broke through the clouds and shone on the earth. Yao Xiaoqing stood in the sunshine without feeling any warmth and took a long breath.
"Xiaoqing, the sun has finally come out." Shan'am came over, looked at her happily, and suddenly sighed, "Spring is almost over, can we still sow seeds?"
Yao Xiaoqing looked at Shan Amu, who had turned pale after just a few months at home, and nodded with a smile, "When the weather gets warmer, we will plant millet with the shortest harvest time."
"Xiao Qing," Chun Amu also walked over and looked at her with a sad face, "I'm afraid the wheat in the wheat field has frozen to death."
Yao Xiaoqing is not sure, "When the freeze thaws, we will clear the furrows. If the wheat seedlings can turn green, we will be under much less pressure this year."
Shan'am said: "The furrows of sugar cane, kudzu, yam, and the remaining two acres of taro fields need to be dredged."
"Well! I hope it really gets warmer now." Yao Xiaoqing looked at the sky and prayed silently.
The weather did not go as expected, and snowflakes began to fall again at night, and everyone's newly untied frowns were locked again.
Yao Xiaoqing woke up early in the morning and didn't see Yao Hu. He called a few times at the door, only to hear him respond angrily in the room.
"Father, what's wrong with you?"
Yao Xiaoqing pushed the door open and entered the room. She saw him lying on the bed with a flushed face. She quickly put her hand on his forehead and said, "Father, you have a fever."
Yao Hu looked at her weakly, "Yeah! My whole body hurts."
Yao Xiaoqing looked at him distressedly, "You don't feel well, why didn't you call me! I'll get you some medicine."
She hurriedly went back to the house to get Grams, went to the kitchen to take out the kettle from the warm nest, poured a bowl of boiling water, and gave Yaohu the medicine to take.
Yao Hu looked at her worried look and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine. I'll just take a nap and I'll be fine."
Yao Xiaoqing nodded, checked his pulse, and handed him the boiling water in the bowl, "Drink more hot water and sleep for a while. I will go to the cafeteria to bring you some porridge."
Yao Hu nodded, fell down and fell into a deep sleep.
