The hunter's cabin is quite large, with an area of more than forty square meters. It is made of rough logs as thick as calves and riveted together. It looks very solid.
After entering the cabin and looking around, Sun Ran understood that unless he encountered a beast like a big brown bear or a forest rhinoceros, it was very safe here and there was no need to worry about being breached by a forest wolf weighing no more than fifty kilograms.
The hunters all entered the hut, closed the door, bolted it, and then blocked the door with a spare stone weighing hundreds of kilograms.
There is a fire pit in the middle of the hut. There is a well-supported iron pot on the fire pit. There is also a living spring pool in the corner, a large wooden spoon, a wooden bucket, and dry firewood. These are all spare things that should be used or used up.
, hunters will take the initiative to make up for it to be used by other hunters passing by next time.
This is a customary rule among hunters in the wild. It is convenient for others and for yourself.
Some of the hunters started to light a fire, some started to ladle water from the spring to the sewer outlet of the room to dispose of the hunted wolf carcasses, and some were washing the iron pots and wooden barrels. They were all very busy and did not pay attention to the looming fire outside the hut.
The shadow of a wolf appears around the corner.
Sun Ran was a guest, so he had nothing to do with him, so he sat quietly aside and prayed with his eyes closed.
After a while, someone sat down next to him. It was Das. He asked: "Pastor, what are you talking about?"
"I am praying to Heavenly Father, hoping that we can return to Thorn Village safely." Sun Ran said with a gentle smile.
"Haha, are you talking about the wolves outside the house? Don't be afraid. I'm very familiar with this group of wolves. I even shot the first wolf out of one eye and became a one-eyed wolf. He has about twenty wolves.
Gray Wolf, after what happened today, he will lose his patience and take the initiative to retreat after one night."
Warrens also smiled and comforted: "Anyway, we don't have to worry about food or housing. We can live here for a few days. But there are so many wolves. We can't live without food, so the one-eyed wolf can't consume us. We
If you know it, it also knows us and knows how powerful we are, so it doesn’t dare to fight us.”
"You said that, I feel much more at ease. But I still feel a little uneasy. This is Heavenly Father reminding me."
Das laughed: "Pastor, it's not your heavenly father who is reminding you. It's your first time experiencing a pack of wolves and you feel guilty."
Sun Ran smiled and stopped defending. Facts would prove what he said.
Soon, the wolf carcass was disposed of. The wolf's head was chopped off and hung bloody on the window. Das stood at the window with his bow and arrows ready and shouted loudly at the wolves outside the house: "One-eyed wolf, do you remember me?
?Look here, this is your brother, I killed him! If you want to be like him, just come over here!"
As soon as the voice fell, a strong gray wolf with a ring of white hair around its neck and one blind eye poked half of its body out from behind the bushes and let out an angry growl.
There was a 'swish' sound, and Das, who had been prepared for it, immediately shot an arrow.
The one-eyed wolf was also very smart. He immediately rolled on the ground, dodged the arrow, and then got into the bushes and never came out again.
"Slippery ghost, good luck to you!" Das spat out the window angrily, then turned around and smiled at Sun Ran: "Pastor, you see, this wolf understands human nature. If it wants the wolf pack to survive, it will
He will not choose to fight us head-on. He is protesting against us today."
Sun Ran shook his head and said softly: "God said that all living beings are equal. The livestock on the earth can be eaten, but not teased. Das, don't provoke it anymore."
"Okay, okay. Pastor, I find you are really nagging." Das muttered and sat down.
A hunter began to roast wolf meat. After a while, the aroma of barbecue wafted out. When the meat was cooked, Warrens took the initiative to take a piece, wrapped it in clean leaves and handed it to Sun Ran: "Pastor, here it is."
, today’s dinner.”
"Thank you." Sun Ran took the wolf meat, sat low and prayed before eating, and then began to enjoy it.
The hunters were not surprised by his actions. They just thought that the so-called priest was like this, and let him go without asking any questions.
After that, the hunters talked and laughed while eating, and hearty laughter erupted from time to time. Outside the window, shrill wolf howls came in from time to time, but it did not affect the hunters' interest at all.
"Hey, Pastor, you came from Tiegron. I heard that there are wars there every day. Why are they fighting?" a hunter asked.
Sun Ran was startled and put down the uneaten wolf meat in his hand, with a look of pain on his face: "It's all done by the nobles. The Assyrian king wanted to get more land and more wealth.
King Lun did the same, and they started fighting. Counting the time, the two countries have been fighting for more than ten years."
"Isn't the king the richest man? Isn't he still short of food and clothing?" Warrens asked strangely.
"No, he lacks nothing. They fight just to satisfy their own ambitions. On the continent, every king wants to recreate the glory of the Highland Empire and the glory of the Highland King."
"I'm really full. I can't live a good life, but what if I lose the battle?" The hunters are ordinary civilians, and they cannot understand the ambitions of the superiors.
Sun Ran sighed: "Even if the battle is defeated, the king is not in danger. According to the nobility protection regulations, he will lose the throne at most, but he will still be a noble with no worries about food and clothing. The real sufferers are us civilians. We fight with our lives and blood and die.
Got it
, the name was forgotten, but the body was pecked by crows, fought over by wild dogs, and died meaninglessly. I saw my brother die in front of me, and the body was trampled into a pile of minced meat by war horses.
The scene... was so tragic that I don’t want to experience it again.”
After talking about it, Sun Ran wiped the tears from his cheeks, his eyes full of deep pain.
If you want others to believe it, you have to believe it yourself first. This is the highest level of lying. Sun Ran is the master of lying.
The hunters were all silent. Although they did not see it with their own eyes, everyone could feel the grief in the priest's heart.
"In Thorn Village, there will never be such a thing. Our lord is very kind, he has never recruited soldiers." Warrens comforted.
"Yes, this is a peaceful and beautiful place." A look of relief appeared on Sun Ran's face.
The night was getting deeper and the hunters were all sleepy, so they spread out their animal skins beside the fire pit and curled up one by one to rest. Soon they could hear the sound of sleeping snores.
As time passed, the fire gradually dimmed, and the night gradually became quieter. The wolves made no more noise and seemed to have retreated.
Sun Ran hadn't slept, and he habitually closed his eyes to rest. It was past twelve o'clock at night, and a new day began.
Sun Ran began to pray, and the divine power arrived as promised, and a new magical technique was formed.
More than two hours passed.
‘Ouch~~~’ A gray wolf’s scream suddenly came from outside the wooden house, breaking the tranquility of the night.
Immediately afterwards, there was a dull roar, and then there was a timid and frightened wolf howl. The sound quickly moved away, as if something was driving the wolves away.
The hunters were also awakened by the movement, and they all looked at each other, wondering what had happened.
"Did we encounter a big brown bear?" Warrens guessed that the only invincible beast in the forest that could make wolves retreat like this is the big brown bear, which weighs more than a ton.
"Don't worry about it, don't worry about it. Let's make the fire hotter. All wild animals are afraid of fire." Das roared, and he took the lead in adding firewood to the fire.
The fire gradually grew brighter, illuminating the wooden house, but slowly, all the hunters felt a strange feeling, their movements gradually slowed down, and finally stopped.
Everyone heard a strange sound in the wooden house. It was a gasping sound, just like the sound made when the bellows of the blacksmith shop was pulled. It was very thick and rough, and it was impossible for humans to make such a sound.
The hunters followed the sound and looked toward the window, and saw a tall figure standing outside the wooden window. He had a pair of blood-red eyes, dark skin, and an extremely strong body. He was quietly looking at the people in the house.
This is not a big brown bear!
"No, it's a mountain monster!" Das was terrified!
The mountain monster looks exactly like a human, but it is pitch black, has magic patterns on its skin, is invulnerable, is very strong, and has the ability to rival a brown bear. It has an extremely cruel temperament and makes a living by cannibalizing people. The terror of the mountain monster is spread in every mountain village in the north.
