The whole family travels through time: escape from famine! No cheat codes yet!

After dinner, we continued catching cicadas all night. We caught more tonight than yesterday because the old men went to the bamboo forest to light a fire and shake the bamboo poles.

In order to avoid causing forest fires, a piece of open space was cleared where the fire was to be lit.

When the bamboo was shaken, the cicadas fell down with a snap. The children, who had tasted the cicadas, picked them up more diligently.

Li Jingshu looked at so many cicadas and secretly thanked himself for his foresight. He saved a lot of lard and should be able to make all of these.

Shen Zhiqiu waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's go to bed first. Zhiqiu will get up early tomorrow to do it. When we're done, we'll continue our journey."

The water is ready. We will get up tomorrow and deal with these cicadas. Then we can put the bedding in and continue our journey.

Although they said they were going to sleep, the women continued to wash and scrub for a while, fearing that they would not be able to find water to take a bath in the future. Even Shen Youyou was no exception.

"Sister Taohua, hurry up, I'm so sleepy."

Sister Taohua is such a meticulous person. After washing, she puts the basins and other things in order. Will she do it differently tomorrow?

A few people returned to the bamboo house, where the women of their family were sleeping, including Shen Youyou and her sisters, grandmother, her mother, her aunt, her fourth aunt, her aunt, her aunt's mother-in-law, Old Lady Wang, and two boys, Shen Luming and Shen Yuanbao.

The night breeze blew in through the cracks in the bamboo house, bringing with it the scent of bamboo and the jasmine scent of the soap on their bodies.

It was quite comfortable. We were really tired, and soon fell asleep after lying down.

It can be said that except for those on night duty, almost everyone was asleep.

It was quiet all around, with only the villagers' snoring and the crackling of the burning fire as the only sounds.

In the second half of the night, a wolf howled suddenly. This time, even Shen Youyou, who usually slept very soundly, was awakened because the sound was too close and it seemed like it was nearby.

Many children were frightened and cried loudly.

"Oh my god, the wolf is coming!"

"Hurry up, hurry up, grab your weapons!"

The men also stood up, but they were still a little dazed.

Shen Zhiqiu woke up from his dream again, with a start, his heart skipped a beat, and he cursed inwardly: The wolf is really coming.

"Everyone, take up your weapons, quickly protect the women and children, and have a few people light a fire. Light up the isolation belt we set up in the evening. Wolves are afraid of fire."

Shen Zhiqiu ran towards the bamboo house while shouting. His wife, children and mother must have been terrified.

The men hurriedly searched for their weapons. Fortunately, they were all placed nearby. Most of them were given swords, spears, and long knives.

There was also a group of people who did not receive any weapons, and some were holding machetes, axes, hoes, and kitchen knives.

At this time, you don’t have time to care about what to take. Just take whatever you can get first.

"Where's my sword?"

"Light it up, light it up quickly!"

The scene is too chaotic!

Fortunately, they all responded quickly and lit a fire in the camp.

Fortunately! In the evening, Shen Zhiqiu said to clear a circle of isolation here. Although we will be careful to put out the fire when we light the fire at night, just in case,

There's a fire. We have a barrier around us but it won't burn us. Also, we can make this barrier bigger and pile a circle of firewood in the middle. If there are any wild beasts, we can light it and it will be able to stop them.

Wow, it really came true. Although there was no fire, the wolves really came, and the sound sounded like they were two or three miles away.

At this time, no one would be so careless as to think that the wolves would not find them.

Seeing the restless horses and cows, Old Man Shen led the horses and shouted, "Quick, move the horses under the bamboo house."

This sentence made Shen Zhiqiu, who was about to go up to the bamboo house, slip and almost fall down:

"Dad, we can't lead it under the bamboo house. If the wolf comes, the cattle and horses will be frightened. They will run around and knock down the bamboo frame, which will be even more chaotic. It's better to lead it to where Yoyo is filtering water. It's inside the fire circle, not too close to there. The cattle and horses will go crazy if they get close to the fire."

He turned around and went up to the bamboo house: "Wife, daughter, mother, don't be afraid, just stay inside and don't come out. Luming, don't cry, don't worry, the wolf will definitely not be able to enter the bamboo house."

As soon as he got there, he heard his son crying loudly. Shen Zhiqiu was heartbroken. What kind of suffering had his old son endured? He was frightened again and again.

Soon the men lit the fire, the flames crackled and the flames shot up high.

Light up the whole area.

Hunter Gao, with his two sons and four grandsons, stood on a bamboo rack with bows and arrows, aiming in different directions.

The strong men formed a circle, staring at their surroundings with bated breath. Behind them were the young men from Shenjia Village. They did not climb onto the bamboo rack because the wolves could jump up due to its height.

They have to block it from below, and it is not convenient to perform on the shelf.

In addition to the elderly and children, even the women on the bamboo rack were trembling and standing outside the bamboo rack with weapons in their hands.

Old Lady Hua held Shen Luming in her arms and tried to comfort him. Shen Luming was still sobbing, and he didn't dare to cry loudly.

Old Man Shen and his group, who were not too old, were also there, but the boys kept them behind them.

This state of alert made Shen Youyou, who was lying on the bamboo door and looking out, dare not breathe loudly.

Her heart was beating wildly, and she recalled the previous battle, when many of them were injured, and that was against humans.

Now the wolves that were coming were even more ferocious. She couldn't imagine what would happen today, how tragic they would be.

You can see circles of fathers, uncles, brothers and grandfathers in front.

Her heart slowly calmed down again. Perhaps this was what her father had said to her at the beginning: a girl must not escape famine alone!

This is the peace of mind that can only be achieved by being united.

At this moment, a faint green light appeared in the distance in the northwest direction, flickering, and it was obvious that it was running at a very fast speed.

Shen Zhiqiu was smart: Oh my god, it's wolf eyes, one pair, two pairs...

Before he could count them clearly, the wolves had already come to them, more than a dozen of them!

The eyes emitting a green glow flickered against the night sky. They were so creepy, especially because of the bloodthirsty coldness in them.

"Xiao San, there are more than a dozen wolves, please move back!"

"Yes, Uncle San, go to the bamboo house."

The men were actually in the mood to let Shen Zhiqiu hide in the bamboo house at this time.

Shen Zhiqiu felt that the moment the wolf ran close, his brothers who were close to him basically stood in front of him as a conditioned reflex.

It was so touching. To be honest, he also wanted to hide in the bamboo house. He was really scared, but he couldn't.

He suppressed his heartbeat and watched them gradually gather around him. Shen Zhiqiu felt himself sweating.

However, the other men performed much better than Shen Zhiqiu, because they lived near the mountain. Even though they had never seen a live wolf, they had seen a dead wolf that was brought back by Hunter Gao once.

In ancient times, wolves were not a rare creature. There were wolves in every deep mountain.

The wolves were very cunning. They looked at the figure in the fire circle and knew that a sneak attack was hopeless.

No one knew how the leader wolf gave the order, but after it raised its head and howled, more than a dozen wolves dispersed and surrounded them.

Then there was another long howl, and a dozen wolves began to howl in response.

"They are about to attack, watch out."

Gao Liehu and Li Quan were experienced and they immediately reminded him.

At the same moment, the wolves came running at full speed and leaped forward.

Although they are indeed afraid of fire, but when they are starving and there is a chance to have a good meal in front of them, how could they give it up?
