Hearing Zhou Gongming calling him, Zhou Yuan began to realize that due to the stimulation given to him by Zhou Baopu and Yao Ruoxi, he really acted a little bit out of control.
Then he calmed down and concentrated on dealing with the scene in front of him. His brother Zhou Changqing hadn't come yet. Zhou Yuan could tell that their grandfather Zhou Gongming, as the village chief, was obviously a little angry, but people from other villages In front of me, I just didn’t show it.
Zhou Baopu squeezed to the front, wanting to see how Zhou Changqing was doing, but he didn't notice Zhou Changqing's figure, and couldn't help but feel shocked.
"Ruoxi."
"Yeah."
"Let me ask you something, did Zhou Changqing not participate in this competition?" "
Yes, I was wondering. If it had been in previous years, that proud guy would definitely have He came here a long time ago. It's not like this year, the lottery started right away, and he hasn't come back yet, so I don't know what he is doing again!" Obviously, Yao Ruoxi didn't have a good impression
of Zhou Changqing and Yao Ruoxi.
When Zhou Baopu heard this, his whole heart felt cold. When he came back from the mountains, Zhou Changqing was still lying on the ground.
Now that he had eaten, and it had been such a while, why didn't Zhou Changqing come back? Zhou Baopu started to feel anxious.
The wolves in the mountains don’t have eyes and don’t recognize people!
"Ruoxi, you wait here for me, I'll go to the toilet."
"You go ahead."
Although Zhou Baopu looked a little strange today and was very out of his mind, Yao Ruoxi thought it was because of what happened last night. I didn't take it to heart.
They ran almost all the way into the mountains. Zhou Baopu knew that the competition between the two villages would begin today, and the villagers would definitely go home earlier than usual.
Thinking like this, he finally understood why he didn't see a single villager on the way down the mountain.
When he came back, it was not very late, but the strange thing was that he didn't see a single hunter. Now it seems that it was because of the competition. Everyone wanted to watch the fun, so they went home early and wanted to eat. Have breakfast and go see the annual excitement!
Zhou Baopu's heart was full of worries about Zhou Changqing. Although Zhou Changqing punched and kicked Zhou Baopu in his daily life, Zhou Baopu knew that Zhou Changqing was not a bad person, he was just naughty and liked to tease people. His nature was still very pure. .
Zhou Baopu once saw with his own eyes, more than once, that Zhou Changqing gave daily necessities to the lonely old man at the head of the village, and often helped other poor villagers. It can be said that he was very kind.
In fact, without thinking too much, Zhou Baopu also knew why Zhou Changqing was harsh and vicious to him alone.
To put it simply, it is because of Yao Ruoxi, a beauty who is as beautiful as a flower, but she is extremely indifferent to other children, and she is particularly close to Zhou Baopu. On weekdays, she always flirts with people in front of them or behind them, without caring at all. What others say.
What's more, no matter what others say, Wang Caifeng and Yao Qian take it indifferently, as if they really acquiesce in their relationship.
Thinking of this, Zhou Baopu, who was running quickly, had already circled a mountainside and was almost at the place where he and Zhou Changqing were fighting.
"Ouch!"
That's right, it's a wolf roaring!
Zhou Baopu was shocked and thought that he had guessed it right, but how should he deal with this group of wolves when he was alone and bare-handed?
"Help!"
Zhou Changqing was shouting for help. There was still a chance to shout for help. It seemed that at least his life had not been lost.
Whether he should save Zhou Changqing or abandon Zhou Changqing, Zhou Baopu had already decided to take action without much thought. This did not mean that Zhou Baopu was reckless. He still had certain methods to deal with the wolves.
Zhou Baopu also regretted it. Why didn't he listen to Zhou Baopu's warning and still stay in the mountain?
Zhou Baopu hadn't left for long when the wolves came. Just when the wolves were about to bite him, fortunately, he was very smart and jumped under the big tree. Before the wolves were about to bite him, he quickly climbed up. Only when we reached the big tree could we escape this disaster!
Looking at the irritable wolves under the tree, Zhou Changqing didn't dare to take a breath. Although he knew that someone would go to the mountain to collect medicine tomorrow and someone would save him, it was still a long night. He just stayed up like this, even taking a nap. There is a possibility of it falling, and once it falls, it will undoubtedly become the prey of the beasts below.
When he thought of this, Zhou Changqing shuddered and got goosebumps all over his body, and he screamed for help silently.
At the beginning, Zhou Changqing still had the strength to shout for help, but now his voice is a little hoarse and he knows how to control himself.
"Crack, click!"
"Crack, crash, crash!"
Although the wild wolves stepped on the rocks and kept making bursts of sounds, this creepy sound also reached Zhou Changqing's ears very clearly.
Zhou Changqing regretted it so much, it was like one wave after another!
The villagers in Zhouzhuang all know that there is a blind bear in Xuangui Mountain, which is extremely powerful. It is said that it can easily knock down even trees. Anyone who encounters it will definitely die!
This sound is clearly the sound of the blind bear chewing food, and these wolves must not dare to stretch their hooves and kick their claws in front of the blind bear. So once the blind bear discovers him and knocks down the tree again, he will be in trouble for the rest of his life. Isn’t the life of the famous Zhou Changqing over?
Sure enough, after hearing these sounds, the alpha wolf reacted quickly and barked extremely alertly.
"Ouch!"
At the call of the alpha wolf, the pack of wolves quickly dispersed. Zhou Changqing held his breath tightly, fearing that he might accidentally attract the attention of the visitor.
After a while, the sound of the blind bear chewing the living things was still vivid in his ears, but the blind bear's voice was not heard, and Zhou Changqing began to have some doubts.
"Changqing, come out quickly. I'm Baopu. I made that sound. Come back with me. The competition you're participating in is about to begin!" "Baopu, is it really you? I'm in the
tree Get up, get down soon!"
Zhou Changqing then remembered that today was the day of the competition, and he was so eager to retaliate that he forgot this important day. It seems that he will inevitably be scolded by his grandfather when he goes back!
However, how can Zhou Changqing care about the competition?
At this moment, Zhou Changqing was almost crying with joy. Although he didn't know why Zhou Baopu would come to save his life regardless of his past grudges, but when he thought that his life was at stake, he could no longer maintain his arrogance.
"Are you okay?"
Seeing the intact Zhou Changqing, Zhou Baopu finally breathed a sigh of relief. He pulled Zhou Changqing and looked him up and down, finally confirming that Zhou Changqing was just frightened and did not suffer any physical harm.
"Let's leave quickly. This is just a delaying tactic. Those wolf cubs are all smart and will come back soon."
After saying that, Zhou Baopu wanted to throw away the nameless bamboo instrument in his hand, but was stopped by Zhou Changqing. .
"Can you give this to me?"
"Of course."
Grabbing the bamboo joint in Zhou Baopu's hand, Zhou Changqing pulled Zhou Baopu and quickly ran towards the mountain road leading down the mountain!
Not long after, the pack of wolves came back and found no traces of blood, no blind bear, and no sign of Zhou Changqing.
The villagers in Zhouzhuang didn't know why the wolves howled so fiercely that night. It wasn't until midnight that they slowly subsided!
