It had to be said that what Shi Shi thought was the truth.
Green-faced fanged beasts were very punctual. They would hunt for food at night and find a comfortable bush to sleep in during the day. They were also very regular throughout the year.
During the cold winter, it would also snow in the forest. Green-faced fanged beasts did not like snow. They would hibernate like bears. In order to keep warm, they would squeeze into the same mountain and hibernate together. It was a rare time for them to gather together. They would only come out of their caves the following spring.
In the past two years, even though the weather had changed strangely, there was no snow even though it was winter. Instead, it was extremely hot. Many animals in the forest had given up on the idea of hibernation. However, the green-faced fanged beasts did not. They still followed a fixed schedule. When the time came, no matter what the weather was like, they would squeeze into their caves and fall into a deep sleep. They would only come out to hunt when they were really hungry.
This was why it was rare to see a green-faced fanged beast in the beginning. It was because they were hibernating.
Only a few of them would come out of their caves and eat a few meals. When they felt that they had stocked up enough, they would return to their caves.
The one Shao Xuan caught was the one that woke up hungry and came out to look for food. Because it wanted to store more energy to survive the rest of its hibernation, it ate a lot. If Shao Xuan didn't find it, it would continue to eat for two more days. After absorbing the energy, its body shrank back to its original size and it would enter the cave to hibernate again.
At this time, most of the green-faced fanged beasts were actually hibernating in the caves in the mountains.
Shi Shi's knocking sound not only forced the Green-faced Fanged Beast out of hiding, but it also woke up the other Green-faced Fanged Beasts. To a certain extent, he did have the effect of knocking on the mountain. Unfortunately, the effect was too great, so he couldn't take it down easily.
The green-faced fanged beasts that were awakened from their sleep had an even worse temper. The first thing it did when it came out was to hit the slave with its most violent attack ever since it woke up.
There were hunting nets, but there were too many green-faced fanged beasts, so it was not easy to catch them.
The continuous screams meant that the capture was not successful. It also meant that the number of green-faced fanged beasts that came out was far more than what Shi Shi expected.
Whoosh!
A figure rushed straight over, and the slave who was pulling the hunting net had to pick up his weapon to deal with it.
Crack!
The sound of bones breaking was particularly harsh in the night. Although the slave had avoided the fangs, he was accidentally kicked by a hoof. His chest collapsed with the crisp sound of bones breaking, and thick blood spurted out from the slave's mouth. He didn't expect that after dodging the fangs, he still couldn't withstand the kick.
For a time, the impact of tusks and metal objects, bone objects, as well as all kinds of bone cracking sounds and screams, mixed together.
Another green-faced, fanged beast rushed out of the cave. Its eyes glowed with a green light in the night. It stared at a person and rushed over. Its body floated up like a cannonball. When it stepped on the grassless ground, a cloud of dust rose and blurred the night vision.
Clang!
Its sharp fangs collided with Shi Shi's sword.
Shi Shi felt as if he was suddenly pumped with air from his wrist to his elbow, it was swollen and numb. On his bare arm, there were many pores that were faintly red. If Shi Shi wasn't stronger than the slave from before, this collision would have caused his entire arm to spurt out blood.
A strong wind blew in his face. Shi Shi, who blocked the attack, lost his balance and took a few steps back before he could stabilize himself. Clear footprints were left on the ground.
Seeing that the green-faced fanged beast that had just attacked retreated and was planning to attack again, Shi Shi's face turned pale. Large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.
The temperature at night seemed to be rising. Shi Shi's back was soaked with sweat. He didn't know if it was because of the heat or because he was anxious.
While looking around nervously, Shi Shi's mind raced as he tried to think of a solution.
There were more and more green-faced fanged beasts. Although he did hope to find more of them, it didn't mean that more was better. If there were too many of them, it wouldn't be luck, it would be a disaster!
If he couldn't handle it, what should he do?
Run!
What else could he do but run? Was he going to pick a fight with these hot-tempered fellows?
"Go! Go back!! "Shi Shi shouted. At the same time, he held a wooden whistle in his mouth and blew it with a specific rhythm. The other slaves heard Shi Shi's whistle and knew what to do.
Pulling up a green-faced fanged beast that was tied up, Shi Shi asked the slaves to cover him and ran down the mountain. As he ran, he didn't forget to shout to the slaves, "Anyone who catches a green-faced fanged beast will be heavily rewarded! You can even be promoted! "
Hearing about the rewards, some of the slaves were already tempted. Although these green-faced fanged beasts weren't easy to catch, they were willing to take the risk for the reward. When they heard that they could be promoted, their eyes lit up.
A slave who wasn't willing to be promoted wasn't a good slave. What was the difference between a slave who couldn't be promoted and a stone in the desert?
This was the result of the masterful brainwashing of the slave masters of Rock Hill City. Under the influence of servility, the slaves wouldn't betray them. The bait that was spread out gave the slaves hope and made them willing to pay the price for it.
Other than here, there were also figures coming out from hidden caves in the nearby mountains.
The hissing sound of their breathing told of their anger.
In the dark night, the shadows of the trees merged into one.
In the forest, on the grass, the figures were like whirlwinds, carrying a scorching hot aura. They ran on the grass without any intention of hiding.
The green-faced fanged beast that hunted for food at night ran like the wind, barely making a sound. But now, these beasts that suddenly appeared were filled with rage, as if they wanted to cause a storm as they rushed down the mountain.
The figures that rushed down from the mountains gathered in the valley and then rushed in the same direction. That was where Shi Shi was running.
The green-faced fanged beasts had their own roars. When they roared, it was more like the sound of the wind blowing. Perhaps others couldn't tell, but the green-faced fanged beasts sleeping on the other mountains could hear it.
After waking up from their deep sleep, they were thinking of ways to vent their anger. They stabbed whoever they caught, even the beasts they met on the way to chase after Shi Shi.
You want to hide in the grass? Look at the teeth!
Behind the trees? Look at the teeth!
I'll stab you to death!
There weren't any loud roars like the other beasts in the Fearsome Beast Forest. When the roars of the green-faced fanged beasts gathered, it was like a gust of wind whistling through the forest.
The leaves in the forest trembled with the sound, and the grass on the mountain was like a huge rock being thrown into a lake, creating countless waves, wave after wave, one after the other.
At night, the forest seemed to have entered a deep and serene world. A violent wind disturbed the tranquility of the night.
On the mountain where the tribesmen rested.
Shao Xuan felt goosebumps all over his body again.
"Do you guys hear something?" Shao Xuan asked the two Thousand Masks on night watch.
"I think so. Is it the Rock Hill City people shouting?" One of them asked.
"No, not that. It's the sound of the wind … No, it's something that sounds like the wind."
"Wind?"
Shao Xuan's words made the two Thousand Masks even more confused.
Was there something wrong with the sound of the wind?
Whoosh —
There was also a sound that sounded like the wind blowing in the cave.
The three of them looked at the cave at the same time.
"Is it that?" The Thousand Masks pointed at the cave and asked Shao Xuan.
Shao Xuan looked at the cave. That sound, if he listened carefully, was different from the sound of the wind. He had heard it before. It was actually made by the green-faced fanged beasts, but it wasn't easy to tell from a distance.
Looking at the mountains in the distance again, Shao Xuan listened carefully to the sound of the wind. Then, he quickly took out a wooden whistle and blew it.
The shrill whistle broke the silence of the night. Whether it was the people snoring in the cave or the people sleeping on the trees outside, they were all awakened by the whistle.
"What's wrong?"
"What happened?"
"Who blew the whistle?!"
Shadows quickly gathered at the place where the whistle came from.
Seeing the person standing there with the wooden whistle in his hand, Duo Kang asked, "Shao Xuan, what happened?"
"Yeah, what happened? Why is the whistle so urgent?" A yawning Eight Limbs tribesman asked.
Shao Xuan looked at the forest in the distance and said, "If I'm not wrong, your prey is here."
Everyone was shocked and asked quickly.
"Prey is here? You mean the green-faced fanged beasts? "
"That's a good thing!"
"How many? Are there enough to share? "If there weren't enough, they would have to fight for it.
Shao Xuan took a deep breath, "… A lot!"
