The little ancestor of the family

It would have been better if she hadn’t looked at it. When she did, Ye Xinran was really scared.

Looking through the gap, she could see Xiao Huaian surrounded by four or five wolves.

Xiao Huaian responded calmly and without panic. He kicked one away with his left foot and swung an arrow with his right hand, and a wolf head was chopped off.

However, the pack of wolves did not retreat. After two wolves fell, two more wolves immediately took their places.

"Watch your back!"

Ye Xinran saw a wolf trying to attack from behind and immediately warned them.

It was as if Xiao Huaian had eyes on his back. Without even turning his head, he chopped the attacking wolf to the ground with one sword.

Seeing that there was no danger over there, Ye Xinran breathed a sigh of relief, but before she could catch her breath, a fishy smell suddenly came. Ye Xinran looked to the side and noticed that a wolf pounced towards her.

"what!"

Ye Xinran was so scared that she quickly closed the door of the tent, only to see a black shadow crash into the tent with a thud.

What followed was a wolf howl and blood splattered on the tent.

Ding Qiao asked nervously outside the tent: "Master, are you okay?"

"I'm fine!"

Ye Xinran tried her best to keep her voice calm.

"How many wolves are out there right now?"

Ding Qiao said, "Now it looks like there are about 17 or 18 of them, but I think there are far more than that because wolves are jumping out of the bushes from time to time."

"How did that happen?"

Ye Xinran regretted it very much. It was all her fault that she insisted on staying here to camp. If she hadn’t camped, she would not have fallen into the wolf pack.

But now that things have come to this, there is no point in regretting. Ye Xinran cheered up and asked, "How are Changqing and the prince? Are they safe?"

"The prince and Mr. Xiao are hiding in the tent. Zhang Qian is over there to protect them. Master, please rest assured."

Ding Qiao gave Ye Xinran a reassurance.

"Master, do you have any fire? This is not a solution now. I'm afraid that if there are too many wolves, Master Xiao won't be able to handle them."

The fire that Ding Qiao was talking about was definitely not a simple fire starter, it had to be at least a torch that could burn continuously.

"Yes, they are afraid of fire. If there is fire, they might not dare to come near."

"Wait a minute, I'll look for you."

Ye Xinran said this and started searching in the space.

The storehouse is now filled with more and more treasures from Daliang, and the things from that era are becoming less and less.

Ye Xinran searched for a long time and finally found a few barrels of gasoline.

"I need some time, please hold on a little longer."

After saying that, she hurriedly picked up a few stents, wrapped one end of the stent tightly with gauze, and then soaked the gauze in gasoline.

Time was tight, so she couldn't make it too delicate, and she didn't wrap the gauze tightly enough.

In this way, five torches were made.

"Take this!" Ye Xinran said as he opened a gap in the tent and threw out four torches.

Then she took out a lighter, lit another torch head facing outward, and handed it to Ding Qiao, "Use this to light the other four. I still have oil here. If you need it, you can come and get it anytime."

"Then master, please close the door of the tent and be careful. I will go and bring torches to Master Xiao and Zhang Qian."

"Go now, don't worry about me!"

Ye Xinran closed the door of the tent again.

Torches were lit one after another, and the area around the tent became bright.

The wolves seemed to be a little scared away by the sudden light, but after they got used to the light, they slowly approached again.

"There must be more than just these wolves, because I haven't seen the leader yet."

Xiao Huaian said as he looked at the wolves that were ready to attack not far away.

"I have never seen such a large pack of wolves. I don't know what attracted them here."

Zhang Qian echoed.

"Master Xiao, the master is now alone in the tent over there, do you want to move her over here?"

Ding Qiao suggested.

There was a little distance between the two tents, and Ding Qiao was afraid that if the wolves pounced on them together, they would not have time to deal with it.

There were now four people sitting in another tent: two coachmen, Lu Changqing and Chen Yan.

Xiao Huaian looked over there and shook his head to refuse.

"No, she's safe here by herself."

As he spoke, he exchanged places with Ding Qiao and walked to Ye Xinran's tent: "Give me the oil."

Ye Xinran opened the tent and handed a barrel of gasoline to Xiao Huaian.

Before the wolves pounced on him, Xiao Huaian quickly walked around the tent, lit a tinderbox and threw it up.

With a whoosh, a big fire started, surrounding the tent in the center of the fire circle.

The wolves were frightened back a few meters by the fire, and some of them simply changed direction and pounced on another tent.

Lu Changqing and Chen Yan had been observing the movements outside in the tent. When they saw a wolf turning around and rushing towards them, they were so scared that they immediately screamed:

"Brother-in-law!"

"Uncle!"

"Please give us some fire and save us here!"

"We are in danger here!"

Xiao Huaian did not move and still stood not far from Ye Xinran's tent. Zhang Qian and Ding Qiao waved their weapons and fought with several wolves.

"Ouch!"

Suddenly, the sound of wolves howling came from the bushes, and along with the sound, a wolf with half of its ear missing appeared.

Its body size is nearly twice that of the other wolves, and it is obviously the leader of the pack.

The leader wolf stood there majestically, and the white hair on its chest made it look even more majestic.

Behind it stood a row of little wolves. As the leader wolf swung its tail, the group of little wolves quickly spread out, forming a large circle and surrounding several tents in the middle.

"It looks like they are going to fight to the death."

Zhang Qian said nervously.

"Since they are seeking death, we will send them all on their way."

Xiao Huaian said bluntly.

With the skills of the three of them, they might not be able to gain the upper hand, but because protecting people was so important, Xiao Huaian had to make the decision to burn his boats.

"Woo!"

Just when the battle between humans and wolves was about to break out, several low and melodious flute sounds suddenly rang out from the top of the mountain.

Xiao Huaian was a little surprised. He didn't expect that there would be someone on the mountain here.

What surprised him even more was that when the wolves heard the flute sound, they seemed to be under some kind of spell and suddenly changed from their previous attacking posture to a defensive posture.

They retracted their sharp teeth, lowered their heads, and slowly retreated until they retreated into the mountains and disappeared.

All this happened so suddenly that Xiao Huaian could hardly believe his eyes.

After confirming that it was safe outside, Lu Changqing and Chen Yan immediately jumped out of the tent.

"Brother-in-law, what's going on? The people on the mountain must be related to these wolves."

"So is he an enemy or a friend?" Chen Yan couldn't figure it out.

"They should be friends!"

Ye Xinran also crawled out from the tent.

The gasoline was all burned out and the fire was out.

She walked up to the group and said towards the top of the mountain, "If they weren't friends, why would they help us?"
