Late at night, the second watch, there was no sound, there was no moon in the sky, only faint starlight, and a little surrounding outline could be faintly seen. In the dark, the trees and rocks looked as scary as mountain spirits and wild monsters with teeth and claws.

I only heard a faint sound of rustling, and a few faint fires, flickering vaguely in the darkness, as if many figures were swaying, and only then did the silence of the wilderness be broken.

Although the grass and bushes had been trampled out a few times, it was still very difficult to walk in the dark of night, and because there were only two or three torches to illuminate it.

This is a night patrol team of the Qin army, with a total of only fifty people, patrolling and inspecting the periphery about six or seven miles away from the Qin army's camp, because now the Qin army is not relying on Jingcheng Dazhai, but arriving at Hongshangzhai of the modern army, so Han Teng, Meng Wu, and Meng Tian dare not be careless, because they have night, they have to send a large number of patrol teams to patrol around the camp to prevent the night attack of the army.

The uncle of this Qin army squad is called Wu Qian, who has been in the army for four or five years, and has participated in the Battle of Daliang, although he is not a veteran, but he is not a novice, and now he has obtained the second-class title of "Shangzao", and he is in charge of fifty soldiers. He divided the whole army into three teams and marched in a zigzag shape, with a distance of about twenty paces between the front and back, left and right, and in case of a chaotic assault, the other squads could retreat in time and go back to report the news.

Each team only lit a torch and was held by the leading soldier, so that the soldiers who followed behind could see the light of the fire, so that they would not get lost in the night, and would not reveal their whereabouts because the light of the fire was too bright.

Wu Qian held a torch in his hand, walked at the front of the team, and estimated that he had walked a distance of about seven or eight miles, so he ordered the team to stop, then looked left and right, and listened attentively. In fact, under the light of the fire, you can only see the distance of a dozen paces, so in this case, you can feel farther by hearing.

At this time, the Qin soldiers all stopped, did not make any more sound, there was silence in all directions, and only unknown insects could be heard chirping from time to time, but it was even quieter.

After listening for a while, he didn't hear any unusual sounds, Wu Qian said, "Okay, it's okay here, let's go back to ......"

Before the words were finished, he only heard a sound of "thorn pulling" in the grass on the left and right, the sound was not loud, but in the quiet environment in the middle of the night, it was still very clear, Wu Qian immediately turned his head to look for the sound, and at the same time subconsciously said: "Who?" ”

The other Qin soldiers also held their own swords and spears, and the archers also drew their feathered arrows from the quiver, put them on the bowstrings, and looked in the direction of the sound, ready to fight at any time.

But after a long while, there was no movement, and the place where the sound came out was pitch black, and it was impossible to see anything, Wu Qian frowned, and sent five soldiers over to take a look.

The soldier lit a torch, which was held by one of the soldiers, each with a spear, and lined up around it, and plucked the grass with their spears, but the light of one torch was limited, and the trees obscured it, so it disappeared into the darkness in a short time. Everyone else waited patiently in place.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly I heard a few "pop" sounds from the direction where the soldiers disappeared, mixed with two screams, and everyone immediately became nervous, but only these few sounds, and then there was no movement.

Everyone waited for a while, but there was still no movement, Wu Qian was also a little breathless, and shouted the names of those soldiers a few times, but there was still no response, Wu Qian thought for a while and said, "Release the arrow." ”

Several archers immediately bent their bows and shot arrows in the direction of the soldiers, only to hear the sound of "whooshing" arrows breaking through the air, and the Qin army shot more than a dozen arrows in one go, but it was like a stone thrown into the sea, without a sound.

Wu Qian was hesitating whether to send someone over to take a look, but at this moment, he suddenly heard someone behind him: "This... What is it? ”

Everyone looked back, only to see that in the darkness, there were more than a dozen points of green light, Wu Qian was stunned for a moment, and muttered: "What is this, is it a firefly?" ”

And at this moment, I heard someone tremble and say, "It's a wolf, this is a wild wolf." ”

The words did not fall, only heard a few wolf howls from the darkness, everyone listened, and they were all terrified, although each of them had been on the battlefield, seen blood, killed people, and at this time they were all wearing armor and holding weapons, but the vast majority of people have a fear of jackals, tigers and leopards and other beasts, because they are in this darkness, and they are not a wolf, judging from these glows, it should be a wolf pack, so everyone feels hairy in their hearts.

However, Wu Qian had seen some people in the world, and he was the first to come back to his senses and shouted: "Shoot arrows, shoot them, shoot them, shoot them......"

But before he finished speaking, he only heard a wolf howl of "woo", only to see a big wolf swoop out of the darkness, volleyed down, a Qin soldier screamed, and was pounced on the ground by the wolf, one person and one wolf, rolling on the ground and fighting. And in the dark, one after another, wolves jumped out and pounced on the Qin army, and several more Qin soldiers were pounced on by the wolves.

If it was on the battlefield, the Qin army would naturally rush forward and fight hard, but at this time, the Qin soldiers did not have the will to fight, except for the Qin soldiers who were pounced on by the wolf, the other Qin soldiers also retreated.

And at this moment, I heard two more "whirring" sounds behind me, and the two Qin soldiers let out a miserable scream, followed by the sound of "boom, pop, bang" and other objects.

Wu Qian was taken aback, is there a wolf here? Hurriedly looked in the direction where the voice came from, only to see that where the soldiers disappeared just now, two huge figures appeared, looking like giant men like the warriors of the Kuafu clan. But these two figures were not human figures, and when they got closer, everyone saw clearly that these were actually two big bears. The soldiers who disappeared just now were obviously the work of these two big bears.

And before the Qin soldiers could counterattack, the two big bears rushed into the Qin soldiers one after the other, and the bear's paws opened and slammed into one round, only to make the Qin soldiers cry, and many Qin soldiers were knocked out. On the other side, the wolves have also been killed, which is really a bear at the front door and a wolf at the back door, and the Qin soldiers are screaming constantly, with countless casualties. When the other Qin soldiers saw this, they immediately scattered and fled in all directions.

Originally, Wu Qian also wanted to organize the Qin army to resist, but a wolf pounced on him in the air, although he was dodged by Wu Qian, but the armor on his left shoulder was not known to be pounced on or bitten off by the wolf, and his body also lost his balance, and he rolled several times on the ground, and the torches and bronze swords were not known to be dropped there, and when Wu Qian stopped his body, there was already a cloud of darkness in front of him, and he could only vaguely see countless black shadows shaking, only the green and shining wolf eyes were very eye-catching in the dark, and the ears kept hearing the screams of Qin soldiers and the sound of wolf howling and roaring.

Wu Qian's heart couldn't help but get nervous, and he hurriedly got up from the ground, regardless of the fact that he couldn't see anything clearly and couldn't distinguish the direction, so he ran wildly. In the dark, I panicked, I was knocked down several times, and I hit a tree or a rock a few times, but I didn't know if it was a tree or a rock, but I didn't care about the pain, I got up and ran again.

Fell and ran along the way, I don't know how long I ran, how far I ran, Wu Qian only ran silently, his whole body was in pain, and I don't know when, he ran away from his helmet. At this time, he vaguely didn't hear the sound of people screaming and beasts shouting, and Wu Qian really couldn't run, so he stopped, gasping for breath.

After taking a breath, Wu Qian stabilized his mind, and then looked left and right, only to see that the surroundings were dark and dreary, and he couldn't see the surrounding environment clearly, let alone where he was.

Wu Qian couldn't help but smile bitterly, at this moment when the black light was blinding, if there were no torches, it would be impossible to find a way back to the camp, of course, then again, even if there were torches, Wu Qian didn't dare to light them, what if there were wolves and bears and other beasts? Therefore, we had to wait until after dawn to find our way back to the camp.

But now there are at least two or three hours before dawn, how can I survive this time, and it is okay to wait in this unknown location, what if Wan bumps into a wolf and bear again in the dark? This is an indefinite thing, since the Qin army was stationed on the periphery of Hongshangsai, Wu Qian has also patrolled three or four times back to the night, and it is the first time he has encountered so many beasts, so it is not an accident to encounter one or two more.

Wu Qian turned around in place again, trying to find a safe place to hide, thinking in his heart, it would be better to find a big tree and climb the tree to hide, it would be much safer, but unfortunately the surrounding scenery was blurry, and he couldn't see clearly at all, and he couldn't find a suitable place.

Therefore, Wu Qian looked left and right again, and subconsciously took a few steps back, but only two or three steps back, Wu Qian suddenly felt that something had hit behind him, and he only felt soft and fluffy. Wu Qian was not shocked, and hurriedly went back.

Although it was dark at this time, there were still some faint starlight, if the distance was very close, it could still be seen clearly, and in front of Wu Qian's eyes, what appeared was a colorful tiger with white forehead and eyebrows, and Wu Qian's distance was less than two feet, almost facing each other.

Wu Qian only felt that the hairs on his body were about to stand up, and even the roots of his hair were straight, so he screamed, and hurriedly turned around and ran.

But before Wu Qian could run two or three steps, he heard a tiger roar of "Ah-woo-" behind him, and then the wind sounded, and his shoulder was pushed violently by something, and his whole body suddenly lost his balance and fell forward suddenly.
