Chapter 285 Attracting Wolves Again
Chapter 285 Attracting Wolves Again
Outside the cave, Liu Mao guzzled his porridge. The two groups in the distance looked at him with complicated expressions. After he finished eating, the group that had attempted to rob him left, fearing he might use the joker. Furthermore, the sun was setting, and at night, this place would only become more dangerous.
After the group left, Tao Jin and the others whispered to each other and then stood up to leave. They didn't dare to gamble their lives on the mercy of others. Especially in this forest, most people who came in had dirty hearts.
Liu Mao looked at them leaving one after another with some contempt, thinking they were all a bunch of cowards. However, if the group of people who wanted to rob him had not left, he might really want to try the power of the joker at night!
What a pity, he left like this.
After all these people had left, he took out the joker card again and looked at it carefully. The coldness of it in his hand made him feel awed.
Thinking back to the wolves' fear before, he began to wonder if it was this ghost card or the evil creature raised by Ning Ji that scared the wolves away!
If this is true, I will sleep well at night from now on.
Now that I think about it, maybe it's true. Although there were wild beasts howling in the nearby woods these past few nights, not a single one came here.
Wow~ This is really good stuff!
After Liu Mao carefully looked at the joker card, he put it away carefully and began to clean up the pots and pans.
As time passed, the sounds of animals could occasionally be heard in the forest at night, but as usual, few wild beasts would approach these valleys.
Liu Mao was lying in his little cave, thinking that tonight would be as calm as the previous nights. But not long after nightfall, someone came again, and there was quite a bit of noise.
Liu Mao sat up quickly, listened to the noise outside, and then hurriedly took a torch in one hand and a big knife in the other. As soon as he walked out of the cave, he saw a group of people holding torches in the distant woods, fleeing in a panic, as if they were being chased by ghosts, and running towards the valley in a hurry.
Liu Mao was also very conspicuous holding a torch. When those people saw him, they immediately ran towards him, shouting for help.
After a while, a group of people stumbled into the valley, and in the woods outside the valley, pairs of eyes glowing green appeared!
The wolves are coming again!
Wow! Looks like there are quite a few!
In the pitch-black night, their eyes were particularly striking, flickering, becoming more and more numerous, like the fire of hell, piercing the darkness. However, after they reached this valley, they did not pursue, but slowly surrounded the entire valley in an orderly manner. At the same time, they seemed to be afraid of certain "things" in the valley and did not approach again, but simply stayed around. The scene looked a little strange.
Liu Mao looked at the pairs of eyes flashing with green light around the valley and couldn't help swallowing. "Damn it, they actually attracted the wolves again!"
At this moment, seeing that the group was about to run towards him, he quickly shouted, "Stop! If you come over again, don't blame me for being rude!"
"Little brother! It's us. We met this afternoon!"
Hearing the voice sounding slightly familiar, Liu Mao stared and looked over. It turned out that Tao Jin and his gang had returned again, bringing a group of disheveled-looking people here.
Liu Mao said coldly, "I don't care who you are! Stay away from me, or don't blame me if you lose your life!"
As he said this, he quickly took out the joker card, ready to summon what was inside at any time!
Although these people were driven here by wild beasts, he was also afraid that they would be attacked!
Seeing this, Tao Jin and others had to stop and stand in the open space not far in front of the cave, looking at the wolves in the forest vigilantly. They only breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that they did not chase them anymore.
They were glad that they escaped back here, otherwise they really didn't know how to avoid the attacks of wild beasts in this vast forest.
Tao Jin and others were afraid of the joker in Liu Mao's hand, but the other group was a little confused. But when they saw that the wolves didn't chase them, they couldn't help but feel unbelievable.
“Ouch—”
The leader wolf suddenly raised its head and howled, and the next moment, the other wolves followed suit and howled. The sounds came one after another, and the whole place was filled with wolf howls, breaking the silence of the night and making people feel terrified.
The group of people in front of the open space could not help but retreat again and again, but they did not retreat towards Liu Mao, but retreated to the mountain wall next to them. Those who had swords in their hands held them, and those who had no weapons shrank back, trembling with fear.
Seeing that they were not approaching, Liu Mao ignored them and instead stared at the wolves in the distance, complaining, "What a bunch of jinxes! Once, twice, and it never ends."
No wonder he didn't complain. If Ning Ji hadn't used some tricks, they would have been implicated if these wolves had rushed over!
When people not far away heard Liu Mao's curse, their faces suddenly became even uglier. Some people even glared at him fiercely. If there were not a pack of wolves surrounding him in the distance and the situation was not bad, they would definitely curse back!
They waited nervously for a long time, but the wolves in the forest did not retreat for a long time, as if they wanted to trap them.
Liu Mao watched for a while and saw that the wolves didn't seem to plan to attack the valley, so he felt relieved and turned back to the cave.
When people not far away saw this, their expressions varied. The group that was unaware of the situation asked Tao Jin and the others in a low voice, what was going on?
They were attacked by a pack of wolves before, and under the guidance of Tao Jin and others, they fled all the way to the valley here. They said that the wild beasts dared not approach here. They didn’t believe it at first, but now seeing this situation, they have to believe it is true. It’s really strange!
Tao Jin and others then told him what they knew.
"Joker?"
When they learned that this might be due to the joker, they couldn't help but stare in disbelief. They had never heard that the joker had such an effect!
Can the joker also scare away wild beasts?
Unheard of!
"Isn't this possible?"
Although they saw this strange situation now, they still didn't quite believe it. They felt that there must be other reasons and it was definitely not the so-called joker that scared the beast.
Tao Jin and the others didn't say anything more. They kept an eye on the wolves in the distance and the surrounding situation, letting them guess for themselves. In fact, they brought these people here on purpose because they wanted to test them.
If they could find out what was scaring off the wild beasts and then find a way to get them, it would be convenient for them to travel in the Tianshan Mountains in the future. At least they wouldn't have to worry about being attacked by wild beasts.
They cut down a dead tree nearby and made a fire. The fire illuminated the surroundings and also scared away some wild beasts in the distance, even though they did not come close.
Time passed, half an hour later, although a small number of wolves retreated, there were still many wolves guarding outside the valley, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
