Traveling Through Farmhouses: Taking the Baby on a Famine Escape
Chapter 51 1 False Alarm
Zhang Xixi found it strange. Although the snow was light today, didn't these wild animals get cold standing on the mountain?
Moreover, these beasts are standing in such a way that they look like soldiers in battle. A group of them are standing in one place, just like someone is deploying troops. It's really strange!
What major event has occurred deep within Tianmu Mountain?
The silver wolf king leading the pack was also puzzled. No matter how you looked at it, this was just a patch of grass with no trace of humans. Had those people already run away? What were they to do then?
Their territory has collapsed, and the tribe is now without food. Some members are even injured, so they have no way to fight for territory.
Originally, I wanted to eat these humans, occupy their territory, and recuperate. But I never expected that these damned humans would run away, and not only that, they also took everything with them!
This is absolutely infuriating!
The Silver Wolf King roared angrily, and the other wolves howled in response. The sudden noise startled Zhang Xixi and the others.
Could they have discovered something unusual?
Zhang Xixi prayed silently that nothing would be discovered!
"System, can I buy on credit from the store? I need to buy a few more defense disks."
"No, host, calm down. This can withstand three attacks from wild beasts, right? It won't let you get eaten by wild beasts."
"System, are you stupid? As soon as they attack us, they will notice the anomaly here and will definitely be lying in wait outside for us to walk into their trap. And if we use up all three chances, they will be able to come in and wipe us out in no time."
"Host, since you can't buy on credit anyway, and there's nothing I can do about not having enough luck points!"
Ultimately, it's because she's poor!
Zhang Xixi approached Zhou Dashan with a worried expression and said urgently, "Brother-in-law, please ask the villagers if they have any valuable items left. Bring them all here so I can take a look. I need to contact my master. I'm afraid the wild beasts might really fight us head-on, since the defensive shield can only withstand three attacks."
Upon hearing this news, Zhou Dashan panicked and hurriedly ran to a crowded area, shouting, "The situation is urgent! Anyone with valuable medicinal herbs at home, hurry up and bring them over! If we're late, we'll all be in danger!"
"Chieftain, what on earth has happened?!"
Zhou Dashan shouted, "Don't ask any more questions! Go back and gather all the medicinal herbs from the house, quick!"
"If you want to live, hurry up!" Zhang Xixi said sternly with a cold face.
Zhang Dacheng and the others immediately went to Zhang Xixi's side, "What happened!"
Zhang Xixi gave a wry smile. "It was my oversight. I originally thought that these wild beasts would leave when they saw there was nothing here, but now it seems they don't intend to leave and might charge down!"
Zhang Dacheng and the others' expressions changed, and they said solemnly, "We can't defeat so many wild beasts!"
"Yes, so I can only contact my master and ask him for help!"
When the villagers heard how serious the situation was, many families ran back to retrieve the medicinal herbs they had hidden away, some common and some valuable.
After touching each item, Zhang Xixi's luck value immediately rose to 10,000, but that's not enough!
There's no time left, I have to take a gamble!
"System, I want to change my luck!"
"Alright, host, deduct 10,000 luck points! Good fortune has been delivered, host, please wait patiently!"
Zhang Xixi anxiously watched the mountain, praying fervently, murmuring, "I hope the danger on the mountain will be averted!" "I hope the danger on the mountain will be averted!"...
Looking at Zhang Xixi's appearance, Zhang Dacheng and the others wondered if she was contacting her immortal master. This method was truly unique!
After the wolf howls on the mountain ended, tiger roars followed. Although the villagers were frightened, they still picked up their weapons, ready to fight at any moment!
After the shouting stopped, the wild animals on the mountain all left one by one—yes, they left!
Seeing that everyone had really left, Zhang Xixi sat down on the ground. It seemed that her good luck had really worked this time!
The villagers also put down their weapons; they had survived a disaster!
Zhou Dashan wiped the sweat from his forehead and smiled. The crisis was over!
The villagers comforted each other and then continued with their busy work, as they still had dinner to eat that evening!
Zhang Xixi also told everyone to take the medicinal herbs back, explaining that since the wild beast had suddenly left and her master hadn't been able to help, he shouldn't accept these as a reward for no one's efforts.
The villagers accepted this explanation, after all, these were their most treasured possessions, worth a lot of money, and getting them back would be the best thing ever.
Although today's full moon celebration turned out to be a false alarm, it didn't dampen the villagers' enthusiasm. After a lively dinner, everyone went to rest.
Lying in bed, Zhang Xixi still felt a little uneasy. Good luck only lasts once, and she wondered if those wild beasts would come back tonight!
"Dad, what are you doing here!" Zhang Xixi came out of the tent and saw Zhang Dacheng sitting under the eaves of the kitchen, with a brazier in front of him.
"I'm worried, I've come out to check!" He then pulled his wolfskin hat down a little further, as it was really too cold at night.
Zhang Xixi looked around and saw that it was quiet, with snowflakes slowly falling from the sky.
"Father, you go back! I'll keep watch!"
"Father is in good health, you should go back and rest!"
When Zhang Wenbo came out, he saw Zhang Xixi and Zhang Dacheng deferring to each other, and quickly said, "Father, little sister, you should go back and rest! I'll keep watch!"
Seeing that everyone was eager to take the night watch, Zhang Xixi suggested that Xiao Jin take the watch. After all, Xiao Jin and the others didn't go out and just ate and slept all day long, so they had to do something!
As soon as Zhang Xixi and Zhang Wenbo arrived at the house where Xiao Jin and the others were staying, they saw several pairs of green eyes staring at them from the cliff, which startled them!
"Big brother, it's alright, just pretend they don't exist!" Zhang Xixi opened the door and went in to instruct Xiao Jin to keep watch for the next few days before coming out.
"System, has good luck finally arrived?"
"It has arrived!"
That's good. Everything should be alright. I'm sure those wolves will leave soon, Zhang Xixi reassured herself.
The wolves outside looked around, found nothing, and left!
It was another false alarm!
Unable to leave the protective shield, and with the snow falling heavier and heavier, the villagers took the cleared snow to the edge of the rain shield and built a wall. They went to build it every morning and evening, and after a month, the wall had become quite high!
Zhang Xixi looked at the white walls all around and was filled with emotion. If the snow didn't stop, the villagers might have to build a mini Great Wall.
Unexpectedly, the snow stopped the next day. Zhang Xixi thought to herself, "Am I a jinx? My idea of a mini Great Wall has been ruined because of my words!"
