Shi Yingying also noticed their predicament, and said, "What do we do, we don't have firewood."
Du Changfeng hesitated, "I will go and get some firewood, can you stay here by yourself?"
He thought that Shi Yingying wouldn't agree to it. After all, she was a delicate and expensive young miss, and it was the first time he had encountered such a thing.
Du Changfeng was surprised. Just now, she was trembling in his arms because of fright.
He picked up two more thick branches from the fire and went to replace the one in her hand that was almost burnt out. He said, "You hold on for a while, I'll be back soon."
Shi Yingying blinked his eyes, "Are you just going to leave like that?"
Du Changfeng asked. "What else do you want?"
"You're not going to reward me for being so brave?" She opened her arms and held the two burning branches in her hands like a reborn bird. "Carry me before you go."
Du Changfeng, "..."
"Hurry up, just in case you come back. I'm already gone, so just treat it as my last farewell."
"Nonsense!" Du Changfeng scolded her in a low voice, "At a time like this, you're still joking."
"I'm not joking, I'm being serious," Shi Yingying maintained that posture, and looked at him through the firelight, "Du Changfeng, if I really get eaten by wolves, I won't regret marrying you. I came here with you, and in this life, I lived too recklessly, and basically didn't ask for anything in return. If there is an afterlife, Du Changfeng, I am willing to be your real wife. "
Du Changfeng stared at her blankly, thinking to himself, just what kind of girl is he, in such a dangerous moment, under the witness of two Wolfhound, she actually confessed to him …
He seemed to be a little pressured, quickly going forward, bending down to hug her tightly, then releasing her, "Before I come back, don't be eaten by wolves, can you do that?"
"Yes." She nodded vigorously. "I'll wait for your return."
He turned around and looked at the Wolfhound that was quietly standing in front of the bonfire, "I'll lure that wolf away, you can deal with this one. However, there might be more Wolfhound coming, you must be prepared."
"Go quickly, don't be so long-winded." "Go early and come back early."
Without further ado, he leaped up and down and flew off into the distance. The Wolfhound in front of the bonfire shot out like arrows, and it was actually not much slower than him.
Shi Yingying's heart tightened when he saw this. She was originally worried about him, but what if Du Changfeng met even more Wolfhound s while he was gone? If he didn't have any torches, would he … No Return...
Thinking like this, her heart clenched. When she turned around, that silent Wolfhound was quietly approaching the carriage. She quickly rushed forward and fiercely swung the torch in her hand. "Get lost!"
The Wolfhound was startled by the fire so it retreated a few steps. It turned its head and looked, and then began to circle around the horse carriage. Shi Yingying did not know what it was planning, but the enemy was moving, and she was moving, and the enemy was not moving. After circling twice, another two Wolfhound s walked out from behind the sand dune, one following behind the other. She secretly complained, thinking what should she do, Du Changfeng had just left, he wouldn't come back so quickly, she had to think of a way to hold him up.
While they were burning with anxiety, the two Wolfhound s had already arrived in front of her. Compared to the previous one, they seemed to be very excited, as if they were eager to give it a try.
In a moment of desperation, Shi Yingying threw a torch towards it. The flame drew a bright flash in the air, causing the Wolfhound to turn and run away in fright. It didn't run far before stopping to look around.
She split the fire into several small fires and surrounded the horse carriage. This way, the horses would at least be safe, but the less firewood they had, the faster they would burn, and she could only hope that Du Changfeng would return before the firewood was burnt out. Otherwise, she would really lose her life.
There was only one disaster, and that was when green light came from the darkness. She knew that it was the eyes of a Wolfhound, and it seemed like there were two more coming. Du Changfeng could only say seven or eight at the most. Her luck was so bad, he met the most … "Ugh …" It doesn't seem to be the most... More and more green lights flashed in the darkness. She felt his blood run cold. How many of them were there … Not even one bite from each wolf was enough to eat her.
What should he do? She anxiously retreated to the side of the carriage. If it really wasn't possible, then she would just have to drive the carriage around randomly, and her life would be in the hands of the heavens.
She stood beside the horse, looking at the pack of wolves that were gathering towards her in the dark. Her hands were clenched tightly into fists, could it be that what she said was true, that she could only resume fate with Du Changfeng in her next life?
She bent down slowly, grabbed the hem of her skirt and ripped it open, tearing the front and back of her skirt into two long slits so that she could run. Until the last moment, she still wanted to make a move.
The small bonfire dimmed and was extinguished. This was the first one, so the others would also be exterminated as well. A hole appeared in the encirclement, and all the Wolfhound rushed towards that direction.
Shi Yingying felt her mouth going dry, she kept gulping down her saliva, the blood color on her face gradually faded away, and when she was about to die, it turned out that it was already too late. She still felt that it was a pity that she did not manage to fulfill her promise to Du Changfeng, and could not hold on long enough for him to return. The most regretful thing was that even when he was about to die, he did not manage to take him down!
In that moment of life and death, a figure fell from the sky, under the moonlight, his sword was as clear as water, sweeping across thousands of troops, the surrounding wolves were swept up by the sword light, and instinctively jumped out, the jumping blood splashing everywhere, and the reeking of blood pervading the air, the wolf pack was in an uproar, they all pounced on him and fought over his food, that kind of scene, caused Shi Yingying's heart to tremble, she felt nauseous.
She didn't care about that, and while he was still on the ground, she pounced on him and wrapped her arms around his neck and wailed," Du Changfeng, you're back! I'm so scared, if you were just one more step, I would have really lost my life. Wuu, at most seven to eight, there are around 30 to 50 of you here, I'm really scared, I'm scared to death, I'll never see you again, wuu …
Du Changfeng rushed over with a bundle of firewood on his back. What he saw was a strange scene: Dozens of Wolfhound were fighting for food, the scene was chaotic, and inside the encirclement, Shi Yingying was hugging a man and crying loudly. What was going on?
The person who was hugged by Shi Yingying was slightly startled, her face slightly flushed, and her clear voice sounded in her ears: "Miss, you recognized the wrong person."
Shi Yingying was shocked, and immediately released her hand. Borrowing the moonlight, she took a look, and discovered that it wasn't Du Changfeng, but an unfamiliar young man with bright eyebrows and starry eyes. Her figure was slender, and actually didn't pale in the slightest when compared to Du Changfeng.
