They had been away from Binhai City for nearly half a month. According to the solar terms, Binhai City might not be as hot as before. After all, it was a seaside city, and the sea breeze was at least not too stuffy.
Did the stupid shop assistants cause any trouble?
Were the pets sick?
Were there any difficulties in daily operations?
Did the tropical depression clouds change course?
Zhang Zian was worried about the pet shop, and the elfins missed the comfortable beds in the bedroom on the second floor. Even Vladimir, who always liked to lie on the ground, was at least better lying on the wooden floor than lying in the dead leaves. At least there would be no insects crawling on it.
They were all a little homesick.
In fact, the trip to Egypt lasted far longer than this time, but it was with a large group of people entering the desert together. They were wary of each other, but they had to help each other. They rarely felt lonely, but this time was different.
He and the elfins did not show their longing. In order not to affect everyone's morale, they just joked about everything under the sun. For example, the electricity bill for the summer was going to go through the roof, or whether the electrician, welder, and carpenter trio would die in silence again.
As they talked, they all felt that there was something strange about the night. They looked around and found the reason.
There was a moon tonight.
It was cloudy during the day, and it was still cloudy at night.
The moonlight was like water, shrouding the quiet forest, sprinkling a layer of fine silver frost on a few open spaces in the forest.
It was a full moon, and visibility was better than ever.
Looking up at the bright moon, looking down at home.
Zhang Zian and the elfins were a little emotional in their hearts. They opened their eyes of different colors and stared up at the pockmarked moon. They did not speak for a while.
After a while, the wind pushed a cloud over and slowly covered the moon.
The forest was dark again.
Zhang Zian rubbed his sore neck and was about to speak when he suddenly saw a few green fluorescent lights in the forest.
He froze for a second or two, then immediately reacted. He stood up, pointed over there, and shouted, "Coyotes!"
The wind blew away the cumulonimbus clouds and fog, but it was precisely because of the wind, even if it was a very light wind, that the coyotes had the opportunity to attack.
Neither the elves nor the deer herd noticed the arrival of the coyotes, because the coyotes approached quietly from the direction of the wind. They raised their claws high and landed lightly, making almost no sound. Even if there was a slight sound, it was covered by the voices of Zhang Zian and the others and blown away by the wind.
If it weren't for the moon being covered by clouds at this time, the overly bright forest would even make them not notice the coyote's green eyes, and they may not even be aware until the coyote is close.
Old Time Tea snorted coldly, "Little rascal, how dare you sneak attack!"
"Jiji!"
Pi grabbed the wooden stick beside it and nervously prepared to fight the enemy.
Zhang Zian held the bear spray, and the other elfins also jumped up.
At first, they didn't think much of the defeated Suburban Wolves, but when they saw pairs of green eyes light up one after another in the forest, they realized something was wrong.
How many coyotes were there?
Zhang Zian picked up a burning branch and threw it at the junction of the open space and the forest. Several coyotes nearby were suddenly illuminated by the fire.
Especially the ferocious black wolfhound, which stood at the forefront and bared its fangs at him.
The coyotes knew that their whereabouts had been exposed, so they no longer hid and showed themselves, surrounding them from several directions. The forest was full of the subtle sound of their feet stepping on fallen leaves.
Including the head deer, every deer in the herd was shivering and even lost the courage to resist. It seemed that they had a premonition that they would not be able to escape their fate.
Zhang Zian's heart was beating fast, but he did not panic. In the worst case, he and the elfins could hide in the trees and wait for the sun to come out. The Suburban Wolves would retreat, but these deer would be miserable.
"Quack? Quack? What's wrong? What the hell happened? "Richard cried. The more it couldn't see, the more afraid it was.
Where was the American badger? Tonight's attack most likely had something to do with the vengeful spirit.
Zhang Zian looked around with his night vision goggles, but the American badger seemed to be smart and did not show up at all. It had been quietly hiding in the darkness of the forest.
The Suburban Wolves surrounded Zhang Zian and the deer, leaving only a few gaps deliberately.
He observed the situation. At this time, if they abandoned the deer and ran away, they might have a chance to escape, but maybe this was a trap. The Suburban Wolves surrounded them, and then deliberately left a gap for them to escape. But there may be other coyotes lying in ambush, waiting to intercept and kill them midway.
The coyotes stuck out their tongues and drooled, staring at the deer fawns and does in the herd. Their eyes were burning with hunger. Some coyotes stared at the elfins maliciously, seeing the elfins as weak food.
After a while, the black wolfhound found that he had no intention of escaping, so it growled a few times, and the coyotes further compressed the encirclement.
Even if there were more coyotes, the elfins were not afraid. The only headache was that if they fought in close combat, the prion protein might take the opportunity to infect them. If it weren't for this consideration, Old Time Tea would have already subdued the black wolfhound.
As long as the leader was subdued, the rest of the rabble would collapse without a fight.
"Grandpa Tea, don't do it yet." Zhang Zian saw that Old Time Tea's eyes were burning. It seemed that it was really angry, and it could attack the black wolfhound at any time. He quickly advised it not to worry. He didn't want Old Time Tea to be in danger of being infected with the prion protein.
"Zian, if you drag it on, the situation will be extremely bad for us," Old Time Tea said in a deep voice.
The deer herd was terrified, and the head deer could not hold its ground. It was about to scatter and flee. If they ran to the tent in a panic and broke up Zhang Zian and the elfins, the coyotes were likely to seize this opportunity to launch an attack.
Zhang Zian racked his brains to think about how to solve this situation.
He thought about it. Maybe he could only find a way to get close to the black wolfhound, and then use the Taser gun to shock it, which would maximize the protection of the elfins.
He tried to take two steps forward, and was immediately stopped by Old Time Tea.
"Zian, don't take the risk!" Old Time Tea said decisively.
The cloud in front of the moon was blown away by the wind.
The full moon was in the sky, and the moonlight was once again sprinkled on the forest.
Woo woo woo ~
The black wolfhound howled at the full moon, and the howl seemed to stimulate the wildness in the blood of the coyotes. They all looked up and howled, and the next moment they might swarm together.
At this time, there was a sudden howl in response from a place not far away.
Woo woo woo ~ Woo woo woo ~
It was a wolf howl!
A real wolf, not a coyote.
The coyotes were suddenly silent.
