"Liu Jie, don't you dare turn back!" Tang Yi's throat slightly moved as she whispered softly.
Originally, Liu Jie was already very afraid.
Now, she was even more terrified.
Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of a grayish-white, strong paw resting on her left shoulder.
A horribly pungent smell was emanating from behind.
Even though she couldn't see what it was.
She could guess what it might be.
This is a wolf!
She was tapped on the shoulder by a wolf.
There's a legend that says.
Wolf on the shoulder, don't turn back.
This has scientific reasoning.
Wolves are very intelligent creatures.
The wolf packs on the prairie, when attacking humans.
They dare to attack head-on or boldly surround in a circle, attacking in turns.
But if there's only one wolf, then the possibility of a frontal attack is unlikely.
The greatest possibility is choosing to attack from behind.
Because attacking from behind might not be able to immediately knock a person down or cause instant death.
Thus, the wolf would first rest its front limb on the person's shoulder.
When a person experiences a sudden touch on the shoulder, they would definitely turn back to see what it is.
And at that moment of turning back, the wolf would immediately bite the person's throat.
This is the most effective attack method for all predatory animals.
Therefore, there's a saying.
If in the wilderness, some mysterious creature taps your shoulder, don't turn back.
Turning back might mean certain death!
Tang Yi and Liu Jie had never experienced such a thing.
But fortunately, they had heard of such a legend.
So, when the wolf tapped her shoulder, Liu Jie did not immediately turn back.
However, the fear inside her was beyond words.
Because she was facing away from the wolf, not able to see the situation of the wolf.
Only able to smell the strong, pungent odor coming from the wolf's body.
Every moment, she wanted to turn her head and look at the situation behind.
This brought immense psychological pressure to her.
The situation was extremely critical.
Liu Jie did not dare to move, and neither did Tang Yi.
Although the wolf had not attacked yet, it didn't mean that Liu Jie would be safe just by not turning her head.
Wolves are highly alert animals.
They don't make sudden attacks easily.
But once they determine that the prey poses no threat, they will attack instantly.
Right now, Tang Yi had no idea how to save Liu Jie.
She was a good five or six meters away from Liu Jie, and she was unarmed!
Earlier when fighting the crocodile, at least they had daggers.
Tang Yi wanted to call out to Su Chen, but she dared not make much of a sound.
Afraid of alarming the wolf, which might directly attack Liu Jie.
Time slowly passed, and the wolf seemed to be getting agitated.
Because it realized that the person in front of it didn't seem to pose any threat.
And Liu Jie, also because of the mental pressure, couldn't help but want to turn back.
Even if it meant death, she wanted to see clearly.
And not be bitten to death without seeing anything.
Liu Jie's head slowly began to turn backward.
"Don't..."
Tang Yi covered her mouth, not daring to make a sound.
She had already seen the wolf opening its bloody mouth.
As soon as Liu Jie dared to turn her head and expose her neck, the wolf would bite off her throat with one bite!
It seemed a tragedy was about to occur.
At this moment, a figure flashed by, appearing in front of Liu Jie.
It was Su Chen!
His gaze directly met the wild wolf's.
His eyes radiated an immense killing intent.
The wolf, which had opened its mouth wide, began to slowly close it.
In its eyes, a hint of fear was revealed.
Animals are the best at understanding human eyes.
Especially eyes filled with killing intent like Su Chen's.
The bloodstains on Su Chen's hands were countless; he had even single-handedly slaughtered wolf packs.
Such a tangible killing intent left the wolf feeling terrified.
Finally, the wolf was intimidated, it shrank away.
It released its paw from Liu Jie's shoulder, then slowly retreated.
Once it reached a place where it felt safe, with a swish, it dashed into the woods.
Disappearing from sight.
At this moment, Liu Jie crumpled to the ground.
In such a situation, anybody would likely be scared out of their wits.
Just now, she had truly taken a trip to Hell Gate.
Tang Yi stared dumbfounded at Su Chen.
Although she knew Su Chen was strong.
She never imagined.
Su Chen could intimidate a wolf just with his eyes.
After scaring away the wild wolf, Su Chen looked at the two with a dark face and said, "Who told you to wash your faces?"
"I… It was me…" Tang Yi hung her head.
"Do you know this could have killed you?" Su Chen said coldly.
"But, what does it have to do with us washing our faces?" Tang Yi said aggrievedly.
"This is a place where wolf packs roam; any human scent will attract them." Su Chen replied.
Tang Yi finally understood, realizing Su Chen had them cover themselves with mud for a reason.
Luckily, Su Chen showed up.
Otherwise, Liu Jie would certainly be dead.
"Let's go." Su Chen helped Liu Jie up, not intending to linger.
Although the wolf had just left, it's not the only one around here.
This is a place frequented by wolf packs.
Called the Evil Wolves Forest.
In total, the wolf packs might exceed a hundred.
Meanwhile, less than a kilometer away from Su Chen's location.
The sound of proud laughter rang out.
"Xiao Feng, you're something, catching a wolf alive!" Several bodyguards praised a young man holding a crossbow.
Just earlier, Xiao Feng used a trap to capture a wolf.
It's known that wolves are much easier to kill than capture alive.
"This is nothing, I told you I used to be a wilderness survival expert, this is small stuff, wolves are nothing, even lions and tigers, I can catch them for Young Master Zhu as pets!" Xiao Feng said proudly.
"You're just bragging!"
A group of people talked and laughed.
They abused the wolf for a while, then slaughtered it to prepare wolf meat stew.
After feasting and drinking.
Young Master Zhu walked over to Lisa, Lisa had been injected with anti-venom serum, and was fine now.
"Come with me, to collect some things in the woods." Young Master Zhu said to Lisa.
Lisa knew exactly what Young Master Zhu had in mind.
In the past, she would certainly be enthusiastic.
But after the silver-ring snake incident, Lisa's mood became somewhat low.
Although she liked money.
Life is definitely more important than money.
She now regretted coming here with Young Master Zhu.
"Young Master Zhu, I... I'm not feeling well, let someone else go with you..." Lisa bit her lip and said.
Young Master Zhu knew what kind of person Lisa was.
Smiling, he said, "I'll give you an extra ten thousand."
The extra ten thousand made Lisa somewhat tempted.
If it were the past, she would've gone immediately.
But now...
