The ancestor is here, she is here with space

After everyone had dinner in the evening, Lin Congyun took a few children to rest in the carriage, while Fang Deyu and others set up a simple tent on the cart and rested inside.

Zhang's father and Wu Jinjie set up a simple tent near the carriage to rest.

The other guards were divided into two groups to take turns keeping watch to ensure everyone's safety.

However, on this night, discordant sounds were heard in the camp.

The other exiles, seeing the comfortable treatment of Lin Congyun and others, felt dissatisfied and jealous, and talked about it in private, their words full of sourness and dissatisfaction.

The officials turned a deaf ear to this and gently waved the whips in their hands, making a crisp sound, as if warning the dissatisfied exiles not to complain or resist, because this is their fate.

After a long and gloomy half day, the rain finally stopped quietly, leaving the earth in a wet tranquility.

In this silence, a sharp and deep howl suddenly pierced the sky, like a sharp blade piercing still water, tearing this peace apart.

The howling in the middle of the night caused panic in the camp, and the alert Lin Congyun immediately became alert.

She leaned out of the carriage, her face full of worry, "Butler Wu, what's going on?"

As soon as Lin Congyun finished speaking, the noise in the camp grew louder and louder, and the sharp howls echoed in the night sky.

Her eyes were as sharp as torches as she stared at the direction where the sound came from, and the worry on her face became even more intense.

Wu Jinjie stood beside the carriage, also with a serious look on his face, "Ancestor, it seems that a wolf pack has been discovered."

Lin Congyun's heart sank, she knew that encountering a pack of wolves in the wilderness was by no means a blessing.

She quickly glanced around the camp, seeing only flickering fires and a swarm of figures.

Obviously, most people were startled by the sudden howling and seemed a little flustered.

"Wu Jinjie, organize the people immediately and get ready." Lin Congyun's voice was calm and firm, "We must protect the people in the general's mansion."

Wu Jinjie nodded and took quick action.

Lin Congyun hurriedly called Fang Deyu and others into the carriage and told them to keep quiet and not panic.

However, the wolf howls were getting closer and closer, as if the wolves had locked onto the camp.

Suddenly, a dark shadow emerged from the darkness and headed straight for the camp.

These are the vanguard of the wolf pack, with fierce eyes and sharp fangs bared.

Immediately afterwards, more wolf shadows came from all directions, surging like a tide.

At this critical moment, Lin Congyun quickly thought of a countermeasure. She knew that facing so many hungry wolves, human power alone could not resist.

The officials and their own guards totaled no more than thirty people, and the rest were mostly exiles wearing shackles and staggering. How could such a team compete with the hungry wolves?

Lin Congyun's eyes were as fast as lightning as he quickly scanned the surrounding terrain.

The camp was located in an open area with insufficient shelter around it, which put them in a very disadvantageous position.

Lin Congyun decisively ordered Wu Jinjie to mobilize all manpower, light torches and bonfires, and form a circle of bright fire around the carriage.

The flames flickered, trying to use the blazing light to drive back the approaching wolves.

However, although the wolves were afraid of the fire, they looked at the circle of fire around Lin Congyun's carriage and turned to run towards other parts of the camp.

Tonight, only the officers' side had a campfire, so the wolves' attack was directed at the exiles who were in shackles and away from the fire.

In this situation, it was difficult for them to avoid the wolves' attack, so they could only fight back desperately.

As the wolves dispersed, shouts of fear were heard in the camp.

The exiled prisoners were already exhausted, and now they were in a desperate situation.

They were already wearing shackles and were obviously unable to resist the cunning and ferocious wolves.

The firelight and starlight intertwined, illuminating the bright moon above the camp.

The chaos and panic in the camp were like the depression before a storm, making it hard to breathe.

Lin Congyun stood on the carriage, looking around him. He couldn't go on like this.

She remembered that there were many weapons in the general's mansion, including a relatively small crossbow. Although it was not very powerful, it had a very long range.

The imperial palace treasury had just been emptied, and all the things that had been confiscated from the general's mansion were now in the space.

With a thought, Lin Congyun had a palm-sized crossbow in his hand.

As a top agent, such weapons are not unfamiliar to her.

She looked around and knew that every wolf pack had a wolf king. Under the light of moonlight and fire, she quickly found the wolf king.

Lin Congyun quickly put the bowstring on the crossbow, put on a sharp crossbow arrow, and aimed accurately at the wolf king.

"Whoosh!"

The crossbow arrow instantly flew off the string, broke through the air, and headed straight for the wolf king's throat.

The wolf king sensed the danger and turned his head suddenly, only to see a tiny crossbow arrow flying towards him. Instinctively, he stretched out his claws to try to block it.

"Tsk!"

The crossbow arrow pierced through the wolf king's claws, and the tip of the arrow penetrated deeply into his flesh, and the blood immediately dyed his fur red.

"Awoo~" The wolf king felt pain and howled to the sky.

Seeing this, Lin Congyun shot the second crossbow arrow without hesitation, hitting the wolf king accurately again.

The wolf king growled, his eyes flashing with crazy anger, and led the wolf pack towards Lin Congyun.

Lin Congyun quickly retreated to the side of the carriage, holding a crossbow in his hand, and shot the third crossbow arrow at the wolf king's head.

"boom!"

The arrow accurately pierced the wolf king's eye, causing it to struggle in pain.

The wolves were also frightened by this series of attacks and temporarily stopped their attacks.

At this moment, "Swoosh!" the fourth crossbow arrow flew out and went straight to the wolf king's throat.

The wolf king howled in pain, fell to the ground, struggled for a few times, and then stopped moving.

Seeing this, the wolves immediately became agitated and howled around the fallen wolf king.

But in the end, the wolf pack without its leader slowly retreated and disappeared into the night.

Lin Congyun breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the wolves go away.

She knew she was safe for the time being.

But she also knew that this was just the beginning.

On the road to exile, you will encounter more dangers and difficulties.

As the wolves left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The officers began to count the casualties, but found that three people were missing.

Those three people were Wang Mazi and others who had caused trouble for Lin Congyun on the first day.

No one knew whether they were dragged away by the wolves or took the opportunity to escape in the chaos.

Tang Guaizi and his two companions were already seriously injured and unfortunately became the casualties this time.

Three of the officers were injured and there were more than twenty prisoners.

On Lin Congyun's side, no one was injured.
