Chapter 8: Withdrawal of the Wolf Pack

  It was another crazy retreat, and a few minutes later, Zhao Wuji heard countless loud noises, as well as the sound of numerous "whooshing" bullets. Turning his head back, he saw that their original position had been turned into a scene like a fireworks display, with bullets flying wildly in the forest, amidst the sounds of explosions, gunfire and countless wails.

  Binzi laughed and said: "Those who can escape the traps I set up are probably not born yet, it's enough for them to drink a pot of, it's refreshing."

  "I reckon this time will definitely scare them off, they're just ordinary small fry, no guts, I believe they won't dare to chase us up." Gangzi said.

  Zhang Peng signaled everyone to hurry up, Zhao Wuji led the way. About half an hour later, Zhao Wuji suddenly stopped and everyone else also stopped, vigilantly looking around. Except for the dense forest, the ground was covered with withered leaves and shrubs, and the ancient trees were entwined with vines that spread wildly. A few rays of sunlight filtered through the leaves and danced down, shimmering and speckled like colorful butterflies fluttering about.

  "It's a pack of wolves, everyone be careful."

  Zhang Peng glanced at Zhao Wuji, who suddenly came to his senses and hastily called everyone together. Several people gathered together without hesitation. Zhang Peng asked, "Why gather together? Wouldn't it be more effective to form a defensive formation by dispersing?"

  "What's a defensive formation? I don't understand." Zhao Wuji said: "We're all together, the wolf pack won't be able to find us?"

  This is a completely counterintuitive theory. Everyone also knows that Zhao Wuji is not a person who speaks without thinking, and they look at him curiously, waiting for an explanation.

  Zhao Wujie said: "Have you forgotten about that Dragon Dan?"

  "I knew it, Captain ate." Fengzi hastily said: "What's the relationship with the wolf pack?"

  "Didn't you notice that all along the way there were no poisonous centipedes, poisonous spiders, poisonous snakes or mosquitoes approaching us?" Zhao Wuji asked.

  "Really, I didn't notice it until you mentioned it." Gangzi said, looking around, indeed there was nothing. Everyone had survived in the primeval forest before and knew how terrifying the primeval forest was, especially the blood-sucking leeches that were everywhere, as well as the venomous snakes and ants that could be deadly.

  "Are you referring to that Dragon Dan?" Zhang Peng, the person involved, looked at Zhao Wuji in surprise, his face filled with excitement. This thing is great, it's simply a must-have treasure for primitive forest tourism!

  Fengzi said beside him: "You're naked and nothing's wrong with you, have you also eaten Longdan?"

  "Yes, when I was 15 years old, I killed a python even bigger than the last one, and also got a dragon dan," Zhao Wuji said: "After eating that thing, not only do you not have to worry about poisoning, but also the poisonous insects in the forest will run away as soon as they smell the breath. I don't know what the reason is, and it's very beneficial for the body. The older generation all knows this."

  "Golden Snake?" Everyone has rich original forest survival skills and common sense, of course, they know what the golden snake means, and they can't help but be shocked. In the tropical rainforest area's primitive forest, the golden snake is absolutely the king of snakes, the king of the jungle, not only the most poisonous, but also the most difficult to entangle, with the strongest combat power. Even if an elephant encounters it, it can only turn around and leave.

  Gangzi curiously asked: "Brother, why did you provoke the Golden Viper?"

  "That year I practiced martial arts and encountered a bottleneck, the older generation said that when people encounter life-and-death situations, they can burst out their potential and may break through the bottleneck. The fact proved that the older generation was right." Zhao Wuji said.

  "You're a freak." Jianzi sighed and said: "A freak martial arts enthusiast, even more so than me."

  "The jungle is fair, nature is fair. I chased the Golden Snake for seven days and seven nights, although I suffered a lot and almost became its snack, but I figured out the Golden Snake's attack method, created my own fist technique, it was worth it. Half a month later, I used this fist technique to kill the Golden Snake, speaking of which, I still made a profit." Zhao Wuji said.

  Everyone listened to Zhao Wuji tell the story, as if he was talking about something ordinary and unrelated to himself. The danger was glossed over in a single phrase, but everyone was smart enough to imagine the extent of the hardship involved. They were even more curious about Zhao Wuji's mysteriousness and strength, however, no one asked anything, they all knew how to respect other people's privacy.

  "No wonder I feel full of energy and very powerful, as if it's endless," Zhang Peng said gratefully. "But scaring away poisonous insects doesn't necessarily mean we can scare away a pack of wolves, right?"

  "I don't know what the reason is, anyway, a pack of wolves just passed by on both sides of us, probably over fifty heads, and went that way." Zhao Wuji said, pointing to the location where the enemy was.

  Everyone was shocked, their faces filled with surprise and worry. Although they didn't know how Zhao Wuji knew that the pack of wolves had passed by, and there were over fifty of them, based on the interactions they had over the past few days, everyone chose to trust him. Being stared at by over fifty wild wolves wasn't a good thing, so let's hurry up and leave.

  Then, everyone rushed forward quickly. Gangzi curiously said: "I think that Longdan will emit some kind of aura. Generally, wild beasts and poisonous insects smell this aura and think a giant python is coming, so they run away? It's like the dragon's breath in Xuanhuan, what do you guys think?"

  No one paid attention and everyone continued on their way.

  Without the tail behind, everyone relaxed a lot on the way. Zhao Wuji and Zhang Peng walked one in front of the other, both carrying "Dragon's Den", some small poisonous creatures didn't dare to get close and retreated, everyone felt that this trip to the primitive forest was too easy, like a tour.

  The team continued on their way, and whenever they came across wild fruit, Zhao Wuji would climb up to pick some, sharing them with everyone. Along the way, they caught a few wild chickens, had food and drink, and life was truly full of joy and extremely comfortable.

  All the way, Zhao Wuji listened to everyone introducing things outside. The dozens of high-rise buildings, the small cars running all over the streets, the exquisite food, and the various beautiful women, his ears were not enough, listening with relish, and he was even more filled with longing for life outside.

  At dusk, after eating something, Zhao Wuji suddenly showed warning signs, and everyone gathered together, asking what was going on. As for Zhao Wuji's ability to foresee danger, everyone had already become accustomed to it. In their view, a person who has lived in the primitive forest for a long time must have an extraordinary sense of danger perception that is different from ordinary people. No one knew that Zhao Wuji's strong sense of danger perception was entirely due to his cultivation of the "Nature Classic" divine technique.

  "The Classic of Nature" is a strange book that not only can nourish life and prolong longevity, but also enhance one's perception of the surroundings. Zhao Wuji used his internal energy cultivated through practice to create a unique "Beast Fist" by combining the movements of wild beasts preying on their prey. The power of this fist is not to be underestimated. Although Zhao Wuji's grandfather was advanced in age and didn't need to fight with wild beasts, he naturally didn't understand any combat techniques, but his robust internal strength allowed him to climb hills and prolong his life without any problem.

  As everyone gathered around, Zhao Wuji warned, "It's a pack of wolves, many."

  "Huh? Didn't we say not to get close?" As soon as everyone heard this, they immediately thought of the scene where more than 50 ferocious and cruel wild wolves surrounded them, their faces filled with bitter smiles. With everyone's abilities and means, dealing with a few dozen wild wolves was no problem, but too many would be different. This wasn't just a matter of adding numbers, but also adding combat power.

  Wolves are pack animals, ferocious and good at fighting, but even better at coordination, with a strong collective consciousness. When facing a large wolf pack, no one has the upper hand, so everyone looks to Zhao Wuji, placing their hopes in him. It's not that they don't have confidence in themselves or that they're not capable enough; it's just that in the primitive forest, everyone feels that nothing can stump Zhao Wuji. With Zhao Wuji around, there's no need to worry too much about anything.

  Zhao Wuji was also unclear about the situation, could it be that the number had increased and his courage had grown? Without explaining, he gestured for everyone to back up against each other, forming a circular formation. This way, no matter which direction the wolves came from, they would be met with counterattacks. This was also a helpless move in a desperate situation. Choosing to attack a large pack of wolves head-on was suicidal; all they could do was defend.

  The golden sunset spilled into the forest, casting a golden glow on the ground. The clear wind blew over the mountain ridge, rustling the leaves of the trees. A pungent gust of wind came, carrying with it the smell of blood and animal stench. Wolves had arrived.

  Before long, some wolf shadows slowly appeared around them, poking their heads out and not choosing to attack at the first time. Perhaps they were afraid of the guns in everyone's hands, after all, these fine firearms were not vegetarian.

  Hard attack is everyone's favorite, but these wolves are no exception. When they start to plot, they're not much different from humans. Just as everyone was tense and eager to pull the trigger, Zhao Wuji suddenly took a few quick steps forward, stopped, put down his bow, spread his legs apart, grasped with both hands, and crawled on the ground like some kind of animal. He lifted his head, and his piercing gaze was filled with disdain and arrogance.

  "Brother, come back!" Fengzi shouted in surprise, about to run over and pull Zhao Wujie, but was held back by Zhang Peng. Zhang Peng shouted: "Wait, everyone be on high alert, I'll take care of Brother Wuji's safety."

  Everyone listened, each taking their own responsibility, carefully watching the wild wolves in their respective positions, pulling out a desperate stance. Gangzi coldly smiled: "Come on, just in time to add dinner for me tonight."

  At this time, Zhao Wuji suddenly made a tiger leap, no mistake, it was a tiger leap. His agile body emitted a king's aura, and then, only to see Zhao Wuji suddenly open his big mouth and roar!

  A domineering and overbearing roar burst out, a small whirlwind blew up in front of him, blowing the dry leaves on the ground to fly around, his body was like a tiger, stretching and shrinking, another loud roar, ROAR!

  The mountains and fields howl, and the beasts are shocked!

  The majestic tiger's roar echoed through the mountains, shaking the surroundings. The entire forest was shaken, and the birds flew wildly around. The wolf pack glanced at Zhao Wuji, then turned their heads and ran away, disappearing instantly.

  Zhang Peng and others stared at Zhao Wuji in a daze, their eyes filled with reverence, a kind of reverence for the king of the mountains. Until the pack of wolves escaped, Zhao Wuji's body shook and he fell to the ground, the crowd came to their senses and rushed up to support him, anxiously calling out his name.

  Zhao Wuji's face was exhausted as he said, "I'm done for, I've lost all my strength. Hurry up and leave this place, head forward." As he spoke, he pointed in a direction before fainting.

  "Zhang Peng hastily shouted: 'Gangzi, carry Wuji brothers on your back, quick, everyone hurry and leave.' His tone was urgent and anxious, but no one noticed that there were tears in the corner of Zhang Peng's eyes, tears of excitement."

  "Yes." Gengzi also responded with some sadness, and carried Zhao Wujie on his back.

  Everyone took a glance at the unconscious Zhao Wuji, their faces filled with concern and gratitude, as well as endless admiration and reverence for the strong, before quickly running forward.
