Tulang Mountain has a steep terrain and is shrouded in fog all year round. Except for some explorers, locals will never come to this mountain.
Mi En led the team and followed the guide while listening to him introduce which plants here are dangerous and which trees are unique to Tulong Mountain. In addition, because there is no human interference, the wild animals here are protected and their reproductive capacity is amazing.
, and the most numerous ones are wolves, just like the name of "Slaying Wolf Mountain".
After walking for about two hours, they found nothing except some animal footprints. After discussing with the guide, Mien decided to leave ten people to set up tents in an open space and prepare dinner, while the rest continued nearby.
Search and return before dark. After all, the night in Tulang Mountain is no joke. These people are entering the mountain for the first time. No matter how urgent it is, he must ensure everyone's safety first.
In this way, the ten people were divided into four teams, with the camp as the center, moving straight forward in the four directions of southeast, northwest, and following Mian's command on the walkie-talkie, returning to the camp before dark.
The guide's name is Victor, a young man in his twenties who is very talkative. Because his father is a forest guard, he has followed his father into the mountains since he was a child, so he is so familiar with Tulang Mountain.
He pointed to the light mist that lingered all year round above his head and said, "Don't underestimate these guys, my father said, they can eat people."
Someone behind him immediately sneered, "How is this possible? It's just a mist. Isn't your father too timid?"
These people are all junior hunters who voluntarily joined the Hunter Alliance. Although they have just entered the industry, they are all unruly and scornful of rumors that they have not witnessed with their own eyes.
Victor became anxious and turned around and said, "My father is not timid! I saw it with my own eyes once when he was young!"
Mien frowned, "What did your father see?"
As if to protect his father's and his own dignity, Victor said loudly, "My father said that at that time, he was still young, about five or six years old. He followed his father, my grandfather, into the mountains. At first
The fog was still floating above their heads like it is now, but gradually, it got lower and lower, and got lower and lower... As if it was going to swallow them both!! And at this moment,
Conglin
Many animals ran out of the house, such as rabbits, foxes, wild dogs, etc. They were all running forward desperately, as if they were avoiding something! Grandpa's expression was very solemn. Seeing this situation, he said nothing
I picked up my father and rushed down the mountain, telling him to close his eyes... My father was so young that he didn't know what it meant to be afraid. He just felt curious and lay on my grandfather's shoulder, and he opened his eyes..."
Victor is very talented in telling stories. When he said this, he stopped. The junior hunters behind him were all attracted, but he stopped at the most exciting part. Suddenly, there were urging sounds behind him.
.
"What did he see?"
"That's right! Tell me, what did he see?"
Even Mian looked at Victor, which finally made Victor regain his balance. He proudly glanced at the people behind him, "Want to know?"
"Nonsense! Say it quickly!"
"Yes, tell me quickly, what did he see?"
Victor cleared his throat and then said mysteriously, "He saw a wolf."
Someone immediately asked, "What wolf?"
"In that fog, there is a wolf!"
There was silence for a few seconds, and then there was a roar from behind, "Cut~"
"Nonsense, there are wolves in the fog? Do you think we are fools?"
There are even more good people who put their hands on their eyes and looked into the fog, "Where is the wolf? Where is the wolf? Why didn't I see it?"
Victor was anxious, "What I said is true! There really are wolves! My father told me personally, our family all believes in God and never lies!"
Mi En thought for a moment and then asked, "What happened next? What happened after your father saw the wolf?"
Victor ignored those people, turned to follow Mian, and continued to narrate, "It's not entirely true that it's a wolf. My father said that it just looked like a wolf, but what happened next is scary.
!" He swallowed and said, "The wolf...well, it was the fog, and it suddenly pounced down! He only heard bursts of animal screams, which were so shrill that he closed his eyes in fear.
, I never dared to open it again.”
Mien frowned. This story sounded like a legend no matter how much it sounded. After all, Victor's father was young at the time, and what he saw and felt was only the fear of a child, which was not trustworthy.
Seeing his disbelief, Victor further testified, "The name Tulang Mountain was not chosen randomly! Our ancestors understood the facts far earlier than we did!"
Mi En just smiled and did not refute anything. People have their own beliefs and no one can force them to change.
However, there are wolves in the fog...
He raised his head and looked at the light mist above his head. It was not as white and gorgeous as the clouds seen from the plane. The direction of the flow was irregular, like the wind, but not like, as if... just doing whatever he wanted.
"Wait a minute!" Victor suddenly raised his hand to stop everyone.
He lowered his body and picked up a piece of animal excrement from the ground. He looked at it carefully, then stared at the ground and said in a calm voice, "Be careful, everyone, a pack of wolves just passed by here."
The teasing turned into teasing. After hearing his words, everyone looked serious, prepared their weapons, and watched the surroundings vigilantly.
Encountering wolves in the forest is a very tricky thing. Fortunately, there are many of them. Ordinary wolves can only have twenty or thirty at most, so they are easy to deal with.
Victor walked in front, pulled out the sickle from his waist, and held it tightly with a nervous expression on his face. Mien also pulled out a dagger. Sometimes, knives are much more practical and sharper than guns.
The further they walked, the more and more wolf footprints appeared, so many that they were so messy that it was impossible to distinguish the number. Victor also had sweat on his forehead. He had only led ordinary explorers into the mountains before. The first
This is the first time I have traveled this far and I have never encountered such a huge pack of wolves!
Mien frowned and looked up at the sky. Through the mist, he could vaguely see the pink sky.
He checked his watch and finally ordered, "Return to camp!"
This is just the first day, he has to preserve most of his strength, there is no need to be consumed by a wolf pack!
Everyone was relieved when they heard his order. After all, no one wants to fight for their lives with a group of beasts, especially after Victor told that story. Although they laughed, they still felt a little uncomfortable in their hearts.
But just when they turned around and wanted to return to the camp, Victor whispered, "Wolf! It's a wolf!!"
