commoner pretty detective

Chapter 2
His fingers quietly grasped the anti-wool device, turned on the switch quietly, and pressed against the button quietly.Wu Yan did all of this very slowly and carefully, for fear that the wolves would spot the clues if she moved a bit.Obviously, the wolf was waiting for the best hunting opportunity, and unfortunately, he was its prey.

One person and one wolf confronted each other for an unknown amount of time, the surroundings were eerily quiet, and the hand holding the anti-wolf device was already dripping with cold sweat.

Suddenly, a green light flashed in front of her eyes, and Wu Yan's head buzzed, and suddenly went blank.She instinctively blocked the green light with her hand and closed her eyes tightly. In a panic, she didn't know whether the switch of the anti-wolf device was turned on or not, and she didn't know whether she was aiming at the wolf's vitals.At that moment, the heart seemed to stop beating, and time seemed to stop flowing.

"Woooo——" I could only hear the howl of wolves incessantly, bumping back and forth in the valley, as if surrounded by the sound of wolves in all directions.Wu Yan had an illusion that it was not just the voice of a wolf.

After an unknown amount of time, the sound gradually subsided, leaving only the "rustling" sound of the wind blowing the leaves in her ears, and Wu Yan quietly opened her eyes.It was already dark, and a round of bright moon hung proudly in the sky. Under the moonlight, the wolf, who was so arrogant just now, was lying quietly on the grass, his eyes full of desire were dimmed.There seemed to be a faint smell of anxiety in the air, Wu Yan was secretly thankful, it seemed that she just made a random block, and even put a bad wolf on the line.I'm afraid no one will believe it when I tell it. To be honest, even she herself can't believe it.

Picking up a long branch on the ground, Wu Yan stabbed at the wolf fearfully, clutching the anti-wolf device tightly in her hand, for fear that the wolf would suddenly jump up from the grass in the next moment.After stabbing it several times, the wolf was still lying motionless, lifeless.Wu Yan's heart was finally relieved, her legs gave way, and she fell to the ground.Hunger and fear seemed to have sucked all the strength out of her body, Wu Yan leaned softly on the tree trunk, she just wanted to close her eyes and have a good sleep.

The moment her eyelids were about to close, Wu Yan suddenly opened her eyes wide, because she noticed that under the moonlight, something beside the evil wolf was reflecting a strange light.Wu Yan got up from the ground, walked forward and squatted down to examine carefully.

I saw an arrow sticking out of the throat of the wolf corpse, and there was a pool of blood dripping on the ground. Obviously, this was the wolf's fatal wound.The arrow penetrated very deep into the flesh, almost without any feathers, which shows that the strength of the arrow shooter is extraordinary.Wu Yan touched the body of the arrow, the tentacles were cold, and there was a faint murderous aura.

Wu Yan quickly withdrew her hand, got up and searched in the forest.The forest was very dense, and the sky was covered with thick shade. Except for this small place where I was, the moonlight could not shine on the ground at all. The whole forest was terribly deep and dark.Growing up so old, it was the first time she experienced a night without lights, and she was alone in the wilderness. A feeling of fear and helplessness suddenly rose in Wu Yan's heart, which seemed to be worse than when she faced the wolf just now. .

"Are you looking for me?" With a chuckle, a slightly hoarse, lazy, but extremely pleasant voice rose from above.

Wu Yan raised her head, and saw a man in white standing on a branch protruding slantingly, holding a bow in his hand.He couldn't see his face clearly, only a long white dress was dancing in the breeze, enveloping his whole body like gauze, as if he could ride the wind back at any time.

The white shadow flickered, and the man in white was already standing in front of him.The moonlight shone on his face, and in an instant, Wu Yan felt that the whole world was lit up, and the sunshine in May warmly soothed every inch of her body.

Seeing Wu Yan staring at him dumbfounded, the man in white didn't care, as if this kind of situation had long been commonplace.He coughed lightly, but still said unhurriedly, "Hey, I'm asking you something."

Only then did Wu Yan regain her senses, her face blushed suddenly when she remembered her gaffe just now.She hurriedly concealed her embarrassment, pointed at the bow and arrow carried by the man in white, and asked calmly, "Did you shoot it?"

"Of course." The man in white replied lightly.He squatted down, looked at the wolf corpse, saw some scorched and curly fur on his forehead, and said with a slight smile, "You are quite brave."

"What?" Wu Yan didn't understand.

The man in white stood up, looked at Wu Yan with great interest, and said, "It's rare for a weak woman who has no strength to restrain a chicken, not only not to be scared to death when facing a wolf, but also dare to do some tricks secretly."

Wu Yan thought to herself that she was lucky, in fact, she was not far from being stunned just now, she smiled shyly and said, "People can do anything when they are pushed."

Then he asked again: "Can you tell me your name?" After finally meeting someone who could talk, she hurriedly flirted with him, otherwise, how would she spend the night in this barren mountain?

The man in white was startled, as if he didn't expect Wu Yan to ask this question.But he quickly replied: "My surname is Gong, my first name is Hao, and my name is Ziling. You can call me Ziling."

"Good surname, good name." Wu Yan praised.Even she herself felt nauseous and blushed, what is this called?

Gong Ziling smiled slightly, and asked: "What is that little thing in your hand, it can burn wolf fur, and there is no fire, and it doesn't look like explosives."

"This," Wu Yan pondered, not knowing how to explain it.Looking at the attire of the man in front of him, he was undoubtedly an ancient man, but he couldn't tell which dynasty he belonged to from the attire.Talking to him about electricity or something like playing the piano to a cow, maybe he would treat himself as a monster, so he faltered and said, "This is my magic weapon, I can't tell you."

"Cut," Gong Ziling said disapprovingly, "What magic weapon, it's a kid's thing, I didn't save your life."

This person is really, even if he saves others, he doesn't need to talk about it. Where is the virtue of modesty?Wu Yan retorted unconvinced: "Don't underestimate this thing, even if you don't make a move, I may not be eaten by wolves."

"Just because of this thing?"

"Of course." Although Wu Yan pretended to be brave, she was not sure at all in her heart.But anyway, the wolves are dead now, and there is no proof of death, so it is impossible for him to find another wolf to let her try.Somehow, in fact, not only did this man not offend her, but he even saved her, but she just wanted to argue with him, which was not like her usual style.Maybe she was angry with herself, angry that she had behaved so badly in front of him just now.

Gong Ziling smiled, walked under the big tree where Wu Yan was standing before, then turned around and waved to Wu Yan: "Come here."

Wu Yan walked beside him without knowing why.

Gong Ziling pointed forward and said, "Look over there."

Wu Yan looked in the direction of his finger, it would be better if she didn't look at it, her face paled when she saw it, her whole body went limp, and she fell to the ground again.Just a few paces ahead, another wolf lay in the grass with the same arrow stuck in its throat.She suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the wolf was hesitant to move at first. It turned out that it was waiting for its companion to sneak around behind her, and it took two pincer attacks.
