Shi Lei also stood up silently and walked forward step by step. He knew that it was the Giant Wolf that he fought with a few days ago. He didn't expect to meet it again. He could feel a murderous aura directed at him. It seemed that the other party was coming for him. He didn't like this feeling very much.
"Shi Lei, kill that Giant Wolf and the wolf pack will automatically disperse."
The old man's voice appeared behind him.
At this time, the old man and the old woman had a lot of hope in their hearts. As long as Shi Lei killed the other party's leader, the other party would commit suicide and disperse.
The Giant Wolf also knew that the other party was powerful. As long as he got rid of him, no one could stop him.
A long howl came from the Giant Wolf's mouth.
The hungry wolves behind him all rushed towards Gu Zheng, while the Giant Wolf slowly took a step back. He wanted to use the human wave tactic to drown him.
The wolves galloped and the earth trembled. A group of ferocious wolves rushed towards Shi Lei, covering the sky and the earth. In an instant, Shi Lei was submerged.
The Old Man and the old woman's faces turned pale. Their legs trembled slightly. They didn't know if Shi Lei could survive this wave. This scene was too terrifying.
The Old Man and the old woman felt a cold air sweep through them. They felt that their blood was about to solidify. They couldn't help but shiver.
At the place where Shi Lei was standing, the broken limbs of countless hungry wolves fluttered in the air. In just the short time it took to drink a cup of tea, all the wolves outside ran away with their tails between their legs, whimpering.
The old man looked over. The wolves that were still standing were not as strong as before. In such a short time, Shi Lei actually slaughtered half of the other party. No wonder those hungry wolves ran away with their tails between their legs.
The other party was even more terrifying than them. Even the wolves were afraid and didn't dare to approach.
Shi Lei's whole body was covered in blood. He held a white bone blade in his hand. He was like a devil incarnate. His body emitted a merciless blood aura, making people tremble in fear.
At this time, the Giant Wolf also knew that the other party was powerful. He quickly roared and ordered the wolves to retreat.
He also turned around and ran. He would wait for a chance to take revenge in the future.
A white light shot out from Gu Zheng's hand, creating a whistling sound as it shot towards the Giant Wolf's back.
The Giant Wolf felt a sense of danger from behind, and all the hair on its body stood on end. Just as it turned around to see what it was, it saw a white object appear in front of its eyes.
In the next moment, its mind quickly fell into darkness. A sharp object had already pierced through its neck and into its brain, killing it in one blow. The Giant Wolf's body stopped moving and collapsed.
When the hungry wolves saw that their leader had died, they scattered and ran away even faster. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared before the Old Man and Old Woman's eyes.
The Old Man's wife clutched her little heart, which was also beating rapidly. She was happy to have survived, but she was also shocked by Shi Lei's frightening appearance.
"Shi Lei, are you alright?" The old woman was more attentive and noticed that something was wrong.
He had remained motionless in that position since he had thrown away his weapon.
Just as she finished shouting, she saw the dazed Shi Lei fall on his back, into the pool of blood at the bottom of his feet.
"Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and save him." The wife saw that her husband was still in a daze and quickly hit him.
"Oh, oh." The old man led the carriage over, but the old horse was unwilling to move forward halfway. There was blood everywhere in front of them, exuding a strong bloody smell.
The old man could only endure the disgust in his heart and step by step on the slippery ground, arriving in front of Shi Lei.
At this time, his breathing was rapid, his face was pale, and his body twitched from time to time. The old man knew that this was a situation of exhaustion. He directly carried Shi Lei's body and went to the carriage.
Thinking about it, to kill so many hungry wolves and avoid their attacks, the energy consumption must be huge, especially from such a distance. It was hard to imagine that he killed the Giant Wolf in one blow.
At this time, the old woman also rushed over and quickly asked about the situation.
After learning that he was just a little tired, she quickly ignored the blood and checked his body for wounds to prevent infection.
At the same time, the old man quickly rushed back to his village.
Three months later.
Old Sun looked at Shi Lei, who was still chopping firewood in the yard, and greeted him with a smile.
"Shi Lei, don't tire yourself out. By the way, I'm going up the mountain again. Are you coming?"
Shi Lei didn't say anything. He just put down the axe in his hand, took out his equipment from the corner, and stood silently behind Old Sun.
Just as the two of them opened the somewhat old door and walked out, a voice came from inside the house.
"Husband, when you come back, bring back more fennel grass. I'll stew something tomorrow. There's not enough at home."
"Got it. Don't worry, it won't be lacking," Old Sun replied loudly.
"Hey, Old Sun, are you going up the mountain again? What prey are you going to hunt?" A man of about the same age happened to pass by and greeted him.
"Nothing. I'm going up the mountain to chop some firewood and pick some other things."
"You're done chopping so quickly. Shi Lei is really hardworking. You should let him rest. Don't tire him out." He glanced at Shi Lei, who was silent behind him, and said.
"I know, but he just doesn't want to stop. I've asked Doctor Xuan to check on him. There's nothing wrong with his body, so we can only let him be," Old Sun said with a smile.
"Okay, you guys be careful. I'm going over there to work." The man nagged a few words and left.
When Old Sun and the others arrived at the entrance of the village, they saw a few young people already waiting there. When they saw Shi Lei come out, they rushed up directly.
"Old Sun, are you still going up the mountain? Take me with you. I promise I won't make trouble. "
"Brother Shi Lei, what kind of wild beast are you going to hunt this time? Is it still a wild boar like last time?"
"Brother Shi Lei, teach me your kung fu. I won't teach it to others."
The few of them were talking at the same time. They had all kinds of requests.
"Ahem." Old Sun coughed twice to draw everyone's attention to himself. "This time we're going up the mountain to chop firewood. There's nothing else. I'll take you next time."
"Hey, why are you chopping firewood again? You've chopped so much that we have nothing to do. Now everyone has stored enough firewood." A young man complained.
"That's right. Your old horse is injured again. There's no time to sell it in the city." Another person agreed.
"Okay, I'll take you next time if there's a chance." Old Sun pushed the crowd aside and promised.
The two of them walked in the direction of the mountain range in the distance.
"Old Sun's luck is really good. He picked up a person on the road. He's very strong, but he doesn't speak. I wonder if he's mute." A person looked at their back and couldn't help but say.
"Especially when I saw that many hungry wolves were killed by him. There was also a Giant Wolf that was almost a meter tall. They all died in his hands. He saved Old Sun and the others."
Old Sun was the guy who saved Shi Lei that day. His real name was Sun Yi, but everyone was used to calling him Old Sun.
That day, when they came back with bloodstains on their faces, they were shocked. When the only doctor in the village examined the person covered in blood, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Only then did he tell everyone what happened when they came back. At the same time, he asked the others to pick up the corpses of the wolves and generously distributed them to everyone.
Everyone was skeptical, but some people still ran out.
After a while, they came back with some broken limbs and shouted. They panted and told everyone that there was indeed a large group of wolves that died there.
Only then did many people run over. Within a day, they forcefully moved all the corpses back. Although the wolf meat was unpalatable, it was still meat. This made the people, who could only eat it a few times a year, happy for a few days.
More than that, they were afraid of that young man.
Of course, the Giant Wolf Leader didn't have anyone and went to Old Sun.
Shi Lei slept for three days before waking up. This made Aunt Sun, who was anxious at the side, breathe a sigh of relief.
Shi Lei was still the same as before. When he woke up, he was full of energy and didn't look like he was injured at all.
He still didn't know who he was. Whenever he thought about it, he would feel a heart-wrenching pain in his head and roll on the ground. Shi Lei also couldn't remember who he was in the past. Later, Old Sun warned everyone not to ask about him.
When he followed Old Sun up the mountain, his performance really surprised everyone.
He had super abundant physical strength. No matter how hard he worked, he didn't feel tired. After chopping the firewood, he carried it back, then came back again, then went back again. He didn't rest once a day, and he didn't even pant. He was still walking as if he was flying.
After seeing everyone's simple traps, he designed some more ingenious traps on his own. It was an eye-opener for everyone. They didn't think that such a simple and effective method could be used.
At first, no one believed it. Later, a few young people followed behind him and learned from him. Gradually, more and more people followed him, wanting to learn a few moves.
He only used half a month to convince everyone, and sometimes he would go out alone, and when he came back, there would be some live wild beasts. There was even one time when he came out with a fierce tiger. This kind of strength made everyone admire him endlessly.
However, because Shi Lei lost his soul, he basically didn't speak. Whether it was to Old Sun or others, he was silent.
Many people felt that it was a pity, but this didn't stop them from chasing after him. Some people even wanted to betroth their daughters to him, but Old Sun rejected them with a smile.
Once this kind of person recovered his memory, how could he take a fancy to these country bumpkins? Wouldn't that be harming them?
At this time, Shi Lei and Old Sun had already arrived at the mountain.
"Shi Lei, go help Aunt Sun find some fennel grass. I'll look for some other things." Old Sun directly ordered. He took out a root that emitted the fragrance of grass.
He knew that Shi Lei could understand. As long as he told him something or asked him to look at it, he would definitely remember it clearly.
Shi Lei nodded and ran forward. Soon, he disappeared into the forest.
When he was a little further away, Shi Lei's speed increased again. This person's speed was so fast that he turned into a phantom.
Shi Lei felt that his strength had increased a lot compared to before, and he was much stronger. However, he didn't know exactly how strong he was. Last time, he accidentally left a huge hole in a mountain with a palm strike.
He only knew that if he were to encounter the wolf pack again, he would be able to easily defeat them without breaking a sweat.
Every night when he slept, he would find himself trapped in a black room. The whole room was dark, but he could see clearly.
He felt that there was a similar stalk of grass that was trying to drill in his direction.
He could clearly feel its position. It seemed to be longing for something. Every time he fell asleep, it would drill in from a distant place.
Furthermore, the closer the enemy got to him, the stronger he became. Perhaps by the time the enemy completely entered his body, he would be able to return to normal.
Although he wanted to sleep, once eight hours passed, he would automatically wake up. He couldn't enter that state. In that state, he could feel what was happening outside, including when Elder Sun and Aunt Sun came to visit him in the middle of the night. He could wake up at any time.
The fennel grass wasn't difficult to find. Soon, Shi Lei found a lot. However, he wasn't in a hurry to go back. He knew that there was a huge waterfall where he could vent his strength to his heart's content.
Because of the increase in strength, he couldn't control it. Whenever he had the chance, he would come here. Not only could he vent his excess strength, but he could also control his own strength.
After a long time, Shi Lei, who had finished venting, caught a wild rabbit on the road and found Elder Sun. He then helped him cut a lot of firewood. When it was dark, they returned home.
At the door, he saw Aunt Sun with a worried face. Seeing them come back, she quickly said,
"Old Ma seems to be dying. Quickly go and take a look."
Shi Lei gave the fennel grass to Aunt Sun and hurriedly went to the back-up stable with Elder Sun. At this time, Old Ma was lying on the ground, panting.
In fact, something was wrong with Old Ma when he came back this time. He had been a little sick, as if he had been frightened.
He originally thought that he could survive, but in the end, he still came to this point. Looking at him, it was very likely that he had reached the end of his life.
Seeing Elder Sun's arrival, Old Ma's spirit was much better. He struggled to raise his head, stuck out his tongue, and licked Elder Sun's cheek, leaving a wet mark on his face.
Elder Sun hugged Old Ma's neck. He knew that it was just a momentary lapse of consciousness. It seemed that Old Ma had been waiting for him. He had relied on him for more than ten years, but in the end, he couldn't withstand the vicissitudes of time.
Old Ma only licked Elder Sun's cheek. After a while, Old Ma's head lowered, and he completely lost his life.
Elder Sun hugged Old Ma's neck and didn't say anything, but Shi Lei could feel his sadness.
After a while, Elder Sun said in a hoarse voice, "Let's go out and bury him."
Although he knew that such a day would come, he couldn't help but feel pain in his heart when he saw it pass away.
Shi Lei didn't say anything. He lifted Old Ma's corpse alone. There was still some warmth on it. He followed Elder Sun out of the village to the west.
Elder Sun picked up the tools he brought from home and refused Shi Lei's help. He began to dig the ground bit by bit. In the second half of the night, a slightly raised mound of soil appeared here.
Ge Ah Ma was already buried below.
Shi Lei just stood silently by the side and accompanied him.
"Let's go." A tired voice came from Elder Sun's mouth. Under the faint moonlight, Shi Lei could see that Elder Sun's eyes were red.
The two of them began to walk back silently.
Suddenly, Shi Lei grabbed Elder Sun's figure and covered his mouth at the same time. He pulled him down with him.
Elder Sun didn't know what he wanted to do, but something must have happened. Otherwise, he wouldn't have done this.
Elder Sun reached out and patted Shi Lei, indicating that he would be careful and not make a sound.
Shi Lei pointed ahead, indicating that there was a situation there.
Elder Sun followed his gaze and looked over. A faint black shadow was really walking along the ground, approaching the village bit by bit. He was wearing black clothes. If not for Shi Lei's reminder, he wouldn't have noticed him.
Elder Sun pointed in that direction and made a grasping motion with his hand, asking Shi Lei if he could catch him.
Shi Lei nodded. His body turned into a sharp arrow and directly shot outside, not showing Elder Sun the first person to see the figure.
Under Elder Sun's puzzled gaze, the figure hiding outside saw someone rushing towards him. He knew that he had been discovered and quickly got up and retreated.
At the same time, when he saw that he had been exposed, he directly took out a bright firework from his hand and screamed as it flew into the sky. It blossomed into a huge spark, lighting up half the sky.
Shi Lei quickly caught up with the person running in front of him. He grabbed the person's shoulder and shook lightly. The person was already soft like noodles, unable to move.
Shi Lei directly threw him back. He spun and directly hit another person who was running away. That person was directly knocked to the ground by the huge impact. He directly vomited a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.
Such a huge commotion, of course, woke everyone up. Everyone came out of the village with torches.
When they saw Elder Sun and Shi Lei carrying two people in black clothes, they understood that someone was investigating the situation in their village.
"Speak, who asked you to come?" As the local village chief's part-time doctor, Doctor Xuan directly stood out and asked them.
Shi Lei patted them a few times before they could open their mouths.
"Since we've been discovered, you can kill us or cut us up. Anyway, you're not far from death." One of them twisted his head and said. His face showed that he was unafraid of death.
"So stubborn and still dare to threaten us. Looks like you'll only speak after you suffer a little." Seeing that the other party was so arrogant, the few young people unknowingly took out wooden sticks.
They directly hit the other party's head and face, cursing while at the same time.
"Speak, are you bandits? What's your plan?" They also knew that they were only here to scout. There must be someone hiding behind them.
No one would believe that you're here to steal when you're wearing such fine clothes, especially when you're carrying something that's specifically used as a warning.
"Kill me if you can. Later, I'll make all of you wish you were dead." Because the soft person couldn't move, his entire head was beaten into a pig's head.
The other one was much smarter. He didn't say anything and just hugged his head on the ground. He didn't resist.
Originally, he wanted to find an opportunity to kidnap someone, but when he saw that the young man from before kept looking at him, his thoughts were immediately extinguished. At the same time, he kept cursing his companion in his heart. At this point, he was still trying to be brave. He really didn't want to die fast enough.
"Don't beat him to death. Shi Lei, carry these two people over. We'll interrogate them alone." Doctor Xuan stopped the young man from beating them. For his own safety, he still brought Shi Lei along.
Shi Lei carried the two to an empty space on the other side. The others didn't follow. Soon, the air was filled with screams.
It made everyone shudder. They didn't know what method Doctor Xuan used to make the other party cry out so miserably.
