Thinking of this, Xiao Chengyi couldn't help but feel a little distressed. He took a deep breath and said, "Take a rest here for the time being and wait until tomorrow to travel again."
After leaving the desert, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. After sitting down, they took out dry food to share.
In the desert before, they didn't have enough to eat because they were worried about being trapped, but now they weren't afraid anymore.
They gathered dry firewood nearby, lit a fire, and waited for the sun to rise.
But Mu Yun'an slept soundly that night, but when it was almost dawn, she was awakened by the sound outside. She only heard a man's panic voice coming from outside: "The wolf is coming to eat the sheep again!"
When Mu Yun'an heard that the wolf was coming again, she suddenly woke up. She sat up quickly and listened to the noise outside.
Not far from where she lived, it was the sheepfold of this herdsman's family.
Most people in Mobei make a living by herding, and cattle, sheep and horses are their property.
At this time, there was a chaotic cry from the sheepfold, which sounded a bit scary.
Hu Yanqiu has also woken up, and she is also listening to the noise outside.
Yuan Jiahe frowned and asked: "Didn't we just meet a wolf yesterday? Why did we meet it again? How many wolves are there in Mobei?"
She thought she would be safe once she entered the grassland, but she never imagined that dangers were everywhere.
Hu Yanqiu said: "In Mobei, wolves often come to attack herdsmen's cattle and sheep. Such things happen from time to time. We have long been accustomed to them."
As long as the wolves don't hurt people, they usually won't stop them when they attack cattle and sheep. After all, they can't stop them.
At this time, a woman's anxious voice came from outside the curtain: "We only have a few sheep left. These wolves come every day to cut off our way of survival."
Mu Yun'an heard that the woman speaking was the hostess of the herdsman's family.
The man seemed to have no other solution. He sighed and said, "What can I do?"
The woman cried and shouted: "God of Changsheng, please save us, don't cut off our way of life."
Mu Yun'an frowned and said to Hu Yanqiu: "You can play the flute I taught you now. Why don't you go try and see if you can drive away the wolves?"
Hu Yanqiu nodded. She got off the bed and left the tent with Mu Yun'an's flute. She saw that several sheep had been killed by wolves in the sheepfold.
She held the flute to her mouth and played it, but the sound of the flute had no effect on the wolves.
Hu Yanqiu turned back to Mu Yun'an and shrugged: "You see, it's useless at all."
Mu Yun'an felt strange that the tune Hu Yanqiu played just now was correct, so why was it useless?
Just as she was thinking about it, Hu Yanqiu returned the flute to her and said, "You should give it a try."
Mu Yun'an took the flute and started playing it. After a while, the wolves that were ruthlessly biting the sheep stopped.
She looked at the group of wolves and said in a cold voice: "Leave quickly and don't bother the people again."
The leader of the wolf king howled, and then disappeared into the morning light with the wolves.
Hu Yanqiu said in surprise: "You should believe it now, right? It's not the function of this flute. You do have the ability to control beasts. You are our patron saint of Mobei."
As soon as she finished speaking, the herdsman's mistress suddenly knelt down and said: "Girl, you are the goddess sent by the Immortal God to save us."
As he said that, the man beside him also knelt on the ground.
Mu Yun'an hurriedly walked over and helped them up and said, "I'm really not a goddess."
However, they didn't believe it. They were sure that Mu Yun'an was the goddess who could save them.
In Mobei, all the people will be harmed by wolves to a greater or lesser extent. Only those who can control the wolves are the gods who protect Mobei.
This is something that every Mobei person knows, and now that they have witnessed the miracle of the goddess, they are convinced.
