The silver Wolf King shone brightly under the moonlight. The moonlight on its body made it seem like it was glowing.
On the cliff, the Wolf King's silver fur fluttered in the wind like an exquisite work of art.
However, Ren Xiaosu did not have any intention of admiring it at all. All he wanted to do now was run!
Didn't they say the wolf pack had already left Stronghold 113's territory? Didn't they say they had entered the mountains several hundred kilometers away? Why would they suddenly appear here?
The cliff was not too far from here, so it would only take about ten minutes for the wolf pack to get here. But what worried Ren Xiaosu the most was that the other wolves were nowhere to be seen. What if they were already approaching them?
Ren Xiaosu shouted, "Hurry up, we have to get into the canyon!"
Liu Bu was stunned. "Get into the canyon? Are you crazy? Aren't we just courting death by going into the canyon?! "
"If we don't go into the canyon, we'll die right now!" Ren Xiaosu rushed to the side of the pickup and grabbed the large rat that was still in good condition. Then he ran into the canyon. He was the person who had dealt with the wolf pack the most, so he knew very well how terrifying of an opponent they would be facing if they did not run.
Perhaps the natural enemies of the wolf pack had been eliminated during the stronghold's cleanup of the wilderness, so the wolf pack could now roam freely in the wilderness without fear.
Ren Xiaosu turned around and was surprised to see the people behind him were still in the mood to retrieve their luggage from the campfire and load it into their vehicles! It seemed like the wolf pack was still quite a distance away from them, so no one was particularly flustered.
Furthermore, Ren Xiaosu had said the wolf pack would not dare to enter the canyon, which gave the group some confidence. As long as they entered the canyon, which was less than ten meters away, everyone would be safe.
Ren Xiaosu thought to himself, 'These people are really not afraid of death. Why are they still going to retrieve their clothes at a time like this? At the very least, they should have gotten their food and water first, right?'
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu realized the most clear-headed people in the group were him, Yang Xiaojin, and Xu Xianchu.
Xu Xianchu immediately went to the car to get the gun and ammunition, while Yang Xiaojin took the gun and forced a driver to get into the car and drive …
But what else could Ren Xiaosu do? He couldn't possibly die with them, right? As he ran deeper into the canyon, he looked at the cliffs on both sides. It seemed that even though the cliffs were steep, there were still places for him to climb.
Ren Xiaosu observed this because he knew very well that when he told the others that the wolves would not enter the canyon, he wanted to hide the truth about how he survived. However, he knew very well that the wolves had chased him into the canyon without hesitation!
Therefore, the wolf pack would definitely chase after them. At that time, how to escape would become a big problem.
A car was indeed a very good means of transportation, but the problem was that it might not even be able to outrun a pack of wolves on flat ground, let alone on the gravel road in the canyon.
A few days ago, the private troops had encountered the wolves, and dozens of hundreds of soldiers were bitten to death by the wolves. The dozen or so of them were really not enough.
There was a saying that went, "You don't need to run faster than the wolves. All you need to do is run faster than others." However, it was impossible for these dozen or so people to slow down the wolves. If they were to die, all of them would definitely die.
Therefore, Ren Xiaosu did not get into the car immediately. Instead, he entered the canyon. It was not that he was panicking, but he knew from the beginning that he would not be able to escape even if he got into the car. He could only look for another way.
If he had no other choice, he could only climb up the cliff. No matter how powerful the wolves were, they could not possibly climb walls, right?
Ren Xiaosu was not sure if he had enough physical strength to climb to the top, but this was the only way out.
At this moment, someone started the car and drove into the canyon. There were not enough cars for everyone because the pickup had been completely scrapped.
At this moment, they saw the wolves appearing at the edge of the forest. Everyone looked horrified. Those wolves were probably as tall as bison, and they did not seem to be in a hurry as they walked towards the humans step by step.
Liu Bu kept screaming in fear. Even many of the soldiers from the private army turned pale.
Those who were still in the mood to pack their belongings now realized how foolish they were. If not for packing their belongings, they would probably have entered the canyon by now!
"Wait, don't close the door!" Someone shouted, "Just squeeze a little and we'll be able to sit down!"
But before the person who spoke could squeeze into the car, Liu Bu kicked him out of the car and slammed the door shut!
"Hurry up and drive! Hurry up and drive! "someone yelled.
Ren Xiaosu was extremely calm at this moment. There was no right or wrong in the wilderness. Living was right, and dying was wrong.
All he could do was make sure he was the one who survived until the end. That was all.
The four cars that were still in good condition drove into the canyon one after another. The price they had to pay was that two people could not get into the car in time. Suddenly, two screams rang out from outside the canyon. Ren Xiaosu's heart skipped a beat. He realized the wolves were moving faster than he had imagined.
When the cars passed by Ren Xiaosu, one of the cars stopped. Yang Xiaojin, who was in the backseat, pointed a gun at the driver's head. Then she turned to Ren Xiaosu and said, "Get in the car."
Ren Xiaosu was stunned. He did not expect Yang Xiaojin to threaten the driver to stop with a gun. Besides, he had no intention of getting into the car! Could a car outrun a wolf in this godforsaken place?
When Yang Xiaojin noticed that Ren Xiaosu was not moving, she pulled out a black M9 pistol with her other hand and pointed it at Ren Xiaosu. "Get in the car."
Ren Xiaosu was speechless.
He turned his head and looked out of the canyon. But what he saw stunned him. Yang Xiaojin followed his gaze and looked back. She saw that the wolves had stopped outside the canyon. Several dozen huge wolves were quietly looking into the canyon from the entrance. Their fur was still stained with fresh blood.
Liu Bu looked at the wolves from the car and said in a daze, "So they really don't dare to enter the canyon. We're saved!"
Everyone present felt like they had just survived a disaster. They had escaped from the jaws of the wolves!
Someone even started crying. "We're saved!"
Liu Bu muttered, "I didn't expect that refugee kid to be telling the truth."
But at this moment, Ren Xiaosu was not in a relaxed mood at all. That was because he had lied to these people earlier on. He did not expect that the wolves would really stop in their tracks.
What did this mean?
It meant that the Jing Mountains had really changed in the past year. That was why the wolves had suddenly stopped here.
It also meant that the Jing Mountains beyond the canyon was definitely more dangerous than they had imagined. The warning that no living people should enter was definitely not a lie.
What should they do?
Someone got out of the car and looked at the wolves outside the canyon. He said, "Why don't we set up camp here and wait for the wolves to leave before returning the way we came?"
Ren Xiaosu thought to himself that he had never heard a more foolish suggestion. He said, "If you want to go back, you guys can go back. I'll definitely not go back the way we came."
Xu Xianchu nodded and said solemnly, "That's right, there's no way back for us."
In this situation, the forest was the wolves' home field. You want to wait for them to leave? Where do you expect them to go? After all, there were still three days left until the journey back to the stronghold. These three days were more than enough for the wolves to turn into werewolves and hang you up for a beating.
Of course, it was impossible for them to turn into werewolves. It was just a metaphor.
No one answered Xu Xianchu. That was because everyone knew that no matter when they went back, they would still die. The only way to survive was to go to Stronghold 112!
There was no turning back!
At this moment, Liu Bu looked at Ren Xiaosu and asked, "Why are you carrying that rat?"
"To eat it." Ren Xiaosu said matter-of-factly, "If you don't want to eat it, why not keep it for the New Year?"
Liu Bu nearly vomited. "Eat it?"
Ren Xiaosu said, "The food is all in the pickup, and it's gone now. If I don't eat it, what else should I eat? Besides, since they ate my biscuits, it's reasonable for me to eat them. "
Liu Bu was speechless.
It did sound quite reasonable!
In fact, Ren Xiaosu knew that one of the biggest problems this group of people was facing right now was food and water.
But even though Ren Xiaosu had disgusted Liu Bu, he really did not take the rat for himself to eat.
