Ji Shiyan could only be described as speechless toward Tan Xiu's words. This kind of simple and easy to understand explanation was very perfunctory.
Just now!
She didn't ask about Tan Xiu's identity from Li Laoshan. Therefore, she intended to ask him personally. She organized her words inwardly and then said, "Mr. Tang, we've been partners since we entered the Shennong Ridge. But I know nothing about you. Can you introduce yourself? "
Tan Xiu seemed to have seen through her thoughts as he smilingly said, "You want to inquire about my identity and background, don't you? Didn't Fatty Li tell you? "
"He didn't." Ji Shiyan shook her head.
"Actually, you don't need to know about my background." Tan Xiu chuckled and said, "We're just strangers who met by chance. Because we just met by chance and simply became companions. After leaving the Shennong Ridge, our life trajectories may no longer intersect. So it doesn't matter who I am. "
"You …"
Anger flashed across Ji Shiyan's face, but she quickly suppressed her anger. She didn't have a good impression of Tan Xiu to begin with. Now that she heard Tan Xiu's words, her impression of Tan Xiu became worse. Therefore, she didn't bother to pay attention to Tan Xiu anymore. She turned around and walked toward her bodyguards to help set up the tent.
A cool mountain breeze blew.
Tan Xiu closed his eyes and quietly cultivated. The air in the deep mountain forest was very fresh, and the spiritual qi in the air was also very abundant. Along with the star force surging in the meridians all over his body, his perception improved a lot. Tan Xiu's ears slightly moved along with the smell of barbecue, and his closed eyes suddenly opened.
"Everyone, be careful. Something is approaching us."
Tan Xiu shouted. His figure floated up and the dagger "Bloodthirster" appeared in his hand out of thin air. His vigilant eyes constantly scanned the surroundings, and he released his Divine Sense in an instant, enveloping a radius of two to three hundred meters.
The eight bodyguards, who had already packed up their tents and were resting, immediately jumped up and scanned the surroundings as if they were facing a formidable enemy. Even Ji Shiyan's expression changed slightly.
Li Laoshan raised his head and asked, "Brother Tang, I'll leave the safety issue to you. When it's safe, we'll be able to eat the delicious barbecue. "
Tan Xiu smiled bitterly.
Li Laoshan was really ambitious.
As time passed, the indistinct sound was finally made out to be the howl of a wolf. Moreover, the sound was getting clearer and clearer.
"Be careful, it's a wolf pack."
A middle-aged bodyguard's expression changed slightly as he suddenly opened his mouth to warn them.
Tan Xiu looked at him in surprise. He didn't expect his hearing to be so sharp. A few minutes later, Tan Xiu could only force a wry smile inwardly because several wild wolves had appeared within the range of his spiritual sense. Moreover, after these wild wolves appeared within the range of his spiritual sense, they only looked around and howled a few times. In just a few breaths, dozens of wild wolves quickly approached them.
In just a few minutes, Tan Xiu found that the middle-aged bodyguard who had just warned them had found four or five branches as thick as a baby's arm and two to three meters long. He then quickly tied some scattered dry firewood to one end of the branches.
"Is this a torch?"
Tan Xiu came to the middle-aged bodyguard's side and asked.
The middle-aged bodyguard nodded and said, "Make a torch. If we are really besieged by the wolf pack, we can pose some threat to them."
"There are about 40 to 50 wild wolves within 100 meters of us," said Tan Xiu. "They are not in a hurry to attack us, but are hiding in the dark and watching us. Do you see the shrubs over there? There are two wild wolves hiding there, trying to spy on our situation. "
The middle-aged bodyguard's expression slightly changed. He immediately handed the torch to his companion and said in a deep voice, "Hurry up and light it. If Mr. Tang is right, the wolf pack should attack us in two to three minutes. I got it. It must be the smell of the roasted meat that attracted them here. "
"Another big guy is coming. It's an adult bear." Tan Xiu sighed. "You just need to focus on the defense later and leave the hunting task to me."
Li Laoshan raised his head again and said with a serious expression, "Brother Tang, don't take it lightly. This pack of wolves is cruel and very cunning. This bear is very powerful, and its speed isn't slow either. I'm afraid you'll die in their hands if you're careless. "
"Don't worry." Tan Xiu nodded and said, "I won't be the one to suffer an unexpected failure."
With strength came confidence.
Tan Xiu was even confident that he could easily kill the entire wolf pack and the bear by himself. However, besides him, Ji Shiyan and the bodyguards were also here. He didn't want to expose his identity as a cultivator, so he could only guarantee to solve the crisis at hand and not kill them all.
Whoosh …
Tang Xiu's spiritual sense shrouded him and locked on the two wild wolves hiding in the bushes. His footsteps dashed and he dashed toward the two wild wolves.
"Aooo …"
Wolf howls sounded. The moment the two wild wolves retreated and were about to turn around to flee, Bloodguzzler drew an arc in the air and accurately swept through the wild wolf's neck before stabbing the other wild wolf's abdomen. The Bloodguzzler dagger refined by Tan Xiu had reached the level of a magic weapon, so it easily killed the two wild wolves under Tan Xiu's control.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
One after another, the wild wolves quickly pounced. Their eyes glowed with a green light and glinted with ferocity as they pounced toward Tan Xiu in an attempt to prey on Tan Xiu.
"GO TO HELL!"
Tan Xiu controlled the Bloodguzzler dagger and constantly fluttered around his body while his figure constantly bombarded the wild wolves that pounced on him. In just half a minute, more than ten wild wolves had died in his hands, and more than a dozen were severely injured.
"Aooo …"
Mournful wolf howls reverberated in all directions as the wild wolves that hadn't been killed turned around and fled. They were cruel and cunning by nature. Facing a terrifying opponent like Tan Xiu and having lost so many of their companions, they finally chose to flee.
"Hmph …"
Tan Xiu caught Bloodguzzler and used his spiritual sense to monitor the fleeing wild wolves. As they disappeared from his spiritual sense's range, he picked up a wild wolf's corpse and turned to the bonfire.
BAM …
Under everyone's dumbfounded expression, Tan Xiu threw the wild wolf's corpse in front of Li Laoshan and smilingly said, "I was just worried that a roasted deer wouldn't be enough for everyone to eat. Now that prey has come to our door, Fatty Li, you'll have to work hard and roast this wild wolf!"
Li Laoshan gulped and cautiously asked, "Brother Tang, I just heard a lot of wolf howls. You … you're actually able to come out unscathed despite being besieged by a pack of wolves, and you even killed one of them? Isn't this too … too amazing? "
"Bringing back a wild wolf's corpse is amazing?" Tan Xiu asked with a strange expression.
"If this isn't amazing, then what is?" Li Laoshan forced a smile and said.
Tan Xiu pointed to the place where he had just killed the wild wolf. He then turned to Ji Shiyan and smilingly said, "Secretary Ji, I'll have to trouble you to take some people to have a look. If you think the wolf meat is good, you can bring back a few more."
"What do you mean?" Asked Ji Shiyan with a blank expression.
"You'll know when you get there!" Tan Xiu said with a smile.
Ji Shiyan was silent for more than ten seconds. Finally, she gritted her teeth and nodded. Then, she slowly walked toward the place with her four bodyguards. A few minutes later, she saw the scene in front of her clearly under the illumination of the torch and flashlight. Her eyes were as big as copper bells, and her beautiful face was full of shock. The four bodyguards around her were dumbfounded. Their hearts were beating wildly and their bodies were slightly trembling.
"This … so many wild wolf corpses?"
A bodyguard's lips squirmed as he murmured in a trembling voice.
Ji Shiyan turned her head with difficulty and glanced at the road she came from. Then, she took a deep breath and suppressed the shock in her heart. She then said in a deep voice, "Everyone, let's move together and bring back these wild wolf corpses."
"Secretary Ji, we can't finish them all at once!"
A bodyguard called out.
"If we can't finish them all at once, then we'll do it twice," said Ji Shiyan in a deep voice. "Hurry up, lest those wild wolves come back to take revenge."
Four or five minutes later.
When Ji Shiyan pulled a wild wolf's corpse and appeared near the bonfire, the four bodyguards also pulled two wild wolf corpses.
"Heavens! This, this, this … "
Li Laoshan's buttocks jumped up from the rock for the first time. He didn't even care about the roasted venison in front of him as he exclaimed, "How come there are so many wild wolf corpses? Could it be that these wild wolves … were all killed by Brother Tang? "
Ji Shiyan nodded without a word and looked at Tan Xiu with a bit of fear in her eyes. She finally understood what Li Laoshan said before. Those words were definitely not alarmist talk. This mysterious Mr. Tang before her was really too terrifying.
She had checked these wild wolves' corpses and found that most of them were killed by knives. Two or three of them had no wounds at all except bleeding from their mouths and having their eyes burst open.
What did this mean?
It meant that they were killed by Tan Xiu with his bare hands.
It was hard for her to imagine how powerful and fast Tan Xiu was to be able to kill these wild wolves with his bare hands.
Li Laoshan strode toward Tan Xiu and said in amazement, "How powerful are you, Brother Tang? That brat from Qingcheng Mountain absolutely can't do this. "
"Didn't I tell you when we were in Saipan?" Tan Xiu chuckled. "He can't even beat my men, so how could he be my match?"
Li Laoshan gulped down his saliva again as he raised his thumb and praised, "I'm convinced. I'm really convinced. No wonder Chen Zhizhong is your disciple. I can't wait to worship you as my Master now. "
"If you want to worship me as your Master, you'll have to reduce your big belly first!" Tan Xiu chuckled.
Li Laoshan let out an embarrassed smile and was about to speak when he suddenly found that Ji Shiyan was about to leave with her four bodyguards. He immediately asked curiously, "Secretary Ji, what are you doing …"
"We haven't brought all the wild wolf corpses yet. Shall we go there again?" Ji Shiyan said.
"There's more?"
Li Laoshan suddenly jumped up and cried out involuntarily.
