Living in the mountains and forests as hunters

Chapter 40

Every minute and every second of this kind of night seems to be tormented. From time to time, when wolves howl, they can feel that this is the attack order of the wolf, and the screams of those wolves. The wolf was injured, and what the two of them could do was to keep counting, hoping to estimate how many were injured. Zhao Dahu heaved a sigh of relief when it was about to dawn, when the world was at its darkest. Turning to Zhao Yiyi and said:
"I heard that more than 20 wolves were injured, and now the howling of wolves has become lighter. It seems that some of them have receded, and I don't know which direction they are going. It sounds like the north or the deep mountains in the east. The south is basically It's a scream, it seems that they met Orion, I don't know if it's brother-in-law, sister, if it's brother-in-law, he must not be alone, he can kill so many wolves, think brother-in-law brought someone here, let's go during the day Lighting cigarettes must have let brother-in-law know."

Maybe Zhao Dahu was born to be a hunter.By this time, his mind was still very clear, and he knew how to analyze it for Zhao Yiyi.With a face full of hope, what Zhao Yiyi said made sense, as if An Dalang had really brought someone back.

Just in anticipation, the sky began to brighten. In the dimness, Zhao Yiyi seemed to be able to see peace and tranquility again, but at this moment, the bow and arrow in Zhao Dahu's hand rang, and with a whoosh, an arrow shot towards the slope to the east. shoot.Immediately afterwards there was a burst of howling wolves, and finally, some wolves noticed here and came up, Zhao Yiyi hurriedly stepped on the stone, looked around, afraid that it was a group of wolves,
"Dahu, how many do you see?"

"Two, I shot an arrow just now, and it seems that one was injured. Sister, take a quick look. In other places, the south is the most important, and the north is definitely not there. By the way, the stone is on the top of the cave. Sister, you should also take a look. Is there any?" , I can't be distracted here."

After hearing Zhao Dahu's words, Zhao Yiyi hurriedly began to look around, the more she looked, the more frightened she became, without turning her head, she said directly:

"There is no place in the cave. There is no place for them to come up in the west. At most, they can climb up in the south. The rocks in the north are very steep. Only in the south, I see that there are three or four. There are not many firewood outside. Waiting for the bonfire It's gone, I'm afraid it's about to come up, it's going to be daytime, why don't the wolves go away?"

While Zhao Yiyi was talking, Zhao Dahu's side heard another burst of miserable cries,
"Sister, a wolf has been caught in the trap, that's good, no, sister, there is another one, you look at the fire, call me when the fire goes out, I will try to shoot this one to death first, and then turn around to deal with your side of."

"Understood, don't panic, since there is a hunter coming, whether it is your brother-in-law or not, it is almost here, we still have smoke here, it must be here."

Although all he said were comforting words, Zhao Yiyi was so anxious!Seeing the fire outside getting smaller and smaller, I regretted it for a while. If I knew it was like this, I wouldn’t try to cover it up. It would be nice to buy a few more traps and bury them outside. The risk factor can be much lower now!Even if it's just a wolf in between.

What should we do now?The most important thing now is to delay the time. As long as there is enough time, then if you want to come to Dug's place, you can deal with the uninjured wolf in time, and you can also concentrate on dealing with it here. Zhao Yiyi's mind has never turned so fast before. He came up with an idea that was not his idea, greeted Zhao Dahu, turned around and went to the cave, and dragged out a big box after a while, which Zhao Yiyi thought was used as a cover, she couldn't just conjure things up.

Taking out seven or eight daggers and kitchen knives, while the fire was still outside, Zhao Yiyi quickly tied the daggers upside down to the courtyard gate. There were thorns outside, but there were no gates!If the wolf wants to come in, it must be attacking the door, so it is also important to guard the door. In addition, he took out a jar full of Erguotou, poured it on his old clothes, put the clothes at the door and left. Not far from the fire, she made up her mind. When the wolf came up, she would throw a torch in it. As long as it burned on the old clothes, she would set Erguotou on fire. The fire must be very big. By then Burning can also kill one.There are also leftover stinky grass and so on in the house, which are also piled up on the side, and added to the fire little by little.At least it made the wolf feel uncomfortable. The last jar was filled with flour and placed at the door. She remembered that the flour would explode easily when it was burned and there was not enough air. By the way, there are also wine jars, which can also be done in the same way.

Zhao Yiyi felt that she had never been so busy, she hated it!Why doesn't this grocery store have a complete collection of homemade gunpowder weapons?If you have this, how much should you save yourself?Wait, gunpowder?You fool!Why did I forget this, by the way, what is it, Nitrate?This family has, leather, charcoal, some can be found in the fire, sulfur, I have the most, but what is the ratio?How come I haven't remembered any of the novels I've read!
It doesn't matter, what ratio do you still remember at this time, she doesn't ask if she can hurt the enemy, even if it's just a noise!Anyway, it can scare the wolf away, isn't it!

Zhao Yiyi hurriedly brought the things she needed, and then regardless of Sanqi 21, they just mixed them together, grabbed them and filled them into the jars, not caring whether the mixture was enough, and waited until it was filled, then used a cloth to fill it up. Tie the hole tightly, then go to the outside of the door, pull a hemp rope into the yard, then light it up, and watch the fire spread out little by little.

"Sister, what are you doing?"

"What else can I do? I'm thinking of a way to delay time! I put sulfur, nitrate, and some charcoal that can be ignited in this jar. I think that when it is burned, the smell must be very strong. Smoke the wolf. , I can’t say that it will make them uncomfortable, so I step back.”

Zhao Yiyi didn't know if someone had invented gunpowder at this time, so she could only use such an excuse. Fortunately, it was a good idea. Zhao Dahu still looked south, and didn't see clearly what his sister had done. He just felt that she Very busy.

"I also soaked the clothes in wine and put them outside. If it really doesn't work, and you can't get through here, my sister will light the clothes. At any rate, the fire can be higher. You concentrate on managing your place. I look at it like this." Delay, no matter how much you can spend an hour, if that person is really your brother-in-law, the time will definitely pass."

When Zhao Yiyi said this, Zhao Dahu felt more at ease. With someone to help him, he naturally became more confident. He only felt that there would be no problem at all if he survived until his brother-in-law came back.

"Sister, don't worry, I will definitely protect you. I am very good at archery. As long as that wolf comes out, I will definitely give him a good look."

The young man spoke really loudly, but the wolf was very disrespectful, so he got out of the bushes as soon as he finished speaking. Zhao Dahu immediately shot an arrow, but unfortunately it missed. Jumping out several meters away, seeing that he was about to get close to the wall of the thorn fence, Zhao Dahu also panicked, he couldn't touch the arrow for a while, Zhao Yiyi was also terrified when he saw it, and hurriedly got out of the fire in the yard. He took a piece of firewood from his pocket and threw it to the place where the wolf came from. He didn't care if it would cause a forest fire. He just wanted to retreat from the enemy and give his brother some time.

Throwing the torch over, the wolf immediately took a step back, and then sprinted to the side very cleverly, avoiding the fire, and fixed his eyes on the China-Arab Conference again. It was so green and so impenetrable.Fortunately, Zhao Dahu finally put on the bow again, and it can be regarded as restored to the state of confrontation, but this time, Zhao Dahu's head was full of sweat, and he couldn't help muttering to himself, sure enough, the old man was right when he said that wolves are the most cunning Yes, the arrow just now was obviously meant to blow me up, so I'm just waiting for my neutral position!Fortunately, a sister took over.Otherwise, the wolf might come up.

The fire outside the courtyard was finally extinguished, and the three wolves began to approach the courtyard wall. At this time, the pot filled with sulfur was also lit on fire and started to burn. Unfortunately, there was no explosion, just a burst of fire. The stench spread, which made the wolves a little anxious, but Zhao Yiyi was disappointed, this thing is in a hurry, it's useless!She herself doesn't remember how many proportions are contained in it, so she really can't count on it.

Seeing that the wolf hesitated for a while, and started to move forward again, Zhao Yiyi could only take a lit firewood again, thinking of throwing it out, to order the clothes. At this moment, the pot suddenly burst into flames, The clusters flew out, making a hissing sound, and there were small explosions from time to time, which startled the wolf and took a few steps back.

Zhao Yiyi was a little dumbfounded, this, this, I didn't make gunpowder, but did I make fireworks?But this is not the time to be dazed!Zhao Yiyi's eyes were fixed on those wolves, afraid that her good eyesight would let them find a gap.

During this confrontation, there was a sudden sound on the small road up the mountain, and several arrows flew past, and two of the three wolves were shot, and the remaining one looked wrong and howled. With a cry, he greeted Zhao Dahu who was confronting him and hurriedly retreated.

The threat that had made her nervous for so long disappeared suddenly, and even a fool knew that this was reinforcements coming, Zhao Yiyi's heart was pulled violently, and she began to look for the figure she wanted to see, even Zhao Dahu came over in a hurry, Looking out of the courtyard, they looked at the path up the mountain together. It took only two breaths to faintly see four figures walking up. She didn't see anyone else, and the others were all imaginary. Only An An Da Lang walked in the front, his body was still covered with blood, his eyes were looking towards him, and Zhao Yiyi's tears suddenly started to fall at just one glance.

"Dalang, Dalang."

After shouting twice, Zhao Yiyi lost all strength and sat down on the ground.
