Chapter 253
"Yoyo! Yoyo!"
"Hiss! Hiss!"
Just then, the reindeer herd by the bear den seemed to be the first to notice something, and the herd immediately fell into a panic.
The rabbit pen nearby wasn't much better; the snow rabbits kept squeaking and jumping.
In the dense forest not far from Xiao Yi's camp, several pairs of green eyes were constantly staring in the direction of the camp.
The owners of these eyes were naturally the wolf pack that had followed the trail of the reindeer herd.
Looking at the reindeer herd in Xiao Yi's camp, and the scent of snow rabbits he had picked up in the air, the wolf pack's hearts were constantly agitated.
The pursuing wolf pack hadn't expected that tracking the deer herd would lead them here, allowing them to see such a bountiful scene.
Naturally, the wolf pack's eyes were filled with greed and longing.
Because the food here was enough for the entire pack to not have to go hungry this winter.
But at the same time, the wolf pack also smelled the scent of black bears here.
Precisely because of this, even though the pack was already agitated, the wolf king still hadn't issued the order to attack.
"Roar! Roar!"
Just then, Hei Dan, who was lying in the bear den, suddenly let out a fierce roar, instantly losing its previous laziness, and quickly got up and ran out of the den.
For these past few days, Hei Dan had been in a state of nervous vigilance, and it had even become a habit.
Even though Xiao Yi and Gou Dan were back today, Hei Dan was still the same.
So the moment the wolf pack appeared, Hei Dan keenly sensed their scent.
Gou Dan, who was lying there preparing to rest, naturally got up quickly the moment it saw Hei Dan run out.
Then Gou Dan sniffed lightly and immediately followed Hei Dan out.
It had been a bit too relaxed just now and hadn't smelled the scent it hated.
After coming out, Gou Dan looked in Hei Dan's direction, and sure enough, several wolves were spying on the camp.
What made Gou Dan feel helpless was that Hei Dan was still as reckless as ever, running off to drive away the intruders without waiting for it.
After Hei Dan came out and saw the wolf pack, it had actually warned them with two roars first.
However, although the wolf pack was wary of the black bears, in the face of such abundant food, it was clearly impossible for Hei Dan to scare them away with just roars.
Seeing that the wolf pack didn't care about its warning, Hei Dan was very annoyed and immediately lunged toward them.
In Hei Dan's mind, whether it was the deer herd or the snow rabbits, they were all the human boss's prey, and also its own.
Since this wolf pack dared to covet these prey, it was naturally a fight to the death.
The wolf pack, seeing Hei Dan chasing after them, stood their ground, preparing for a big battle.
But when they saw another black bear come out of the den, the wolf pack hesitated.
There were six wolves here; if it were just one black bear, the wolf king was confident it could handle it.
Relying on speed and agility, they could drag this black bear out and circle it, while also hunting some food on the side.
But with two black bears present, the entire pack wouldn't just fail to get food; they would even risk being wiped out.
"Awoo!"
Although it wanted to snatch food from the bear's mouth, the wolf king's reason made it call the pack back and leave before Hei Dan could catch up.
Under the wolf king's call, although the pack couldn't suppress their longing for the prey in the camp, they still turned and followed the wolf king away.
Seeing the wolf pack flee, Hei Dan also gave up the chase, staying there and waiting until the scent of the wolves had completely vanished before slowly returning to the den.
As for Xiao Yi, although he was disturbed by the bear roars and wolf howls, his physical exhaustion didn't let him get up to check.
This was also because the clash between the bears and wolves outside was too brief, with only a few roars before everything returned to complete calm.
Even if there hadn't been a clash tonight, Xiao Yi could usually hear a few such roars when he slept; they were just quieter than this, as this was the wilderness after all.
Of course, not getting up was also due to Xiao Yi's trust in the two bears, Hei Dan and Gou Dan.
In Xiao Yi's view, breaking through the defense of two black bears to plunder his prey was simply impossible in this wilderness.
Later, the night deepened, the wilderness became completely silent, and Xiao Yi naturally fell into a deep sleep.
However, the fleeing wolf pack was unwilling to give up; when the night grew deeper, they made a comeback, choosing to return here again.
They planned to wait until the two bears were fast asleep, sneak in to hunt some prey, and then flee directly.
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
However, what the wolf pack didn't expect was that before they had even stepped into the camp, a black bear suddenly lunged out of the den and headed straight for the wolf pack at the edge of the camp.
As for Gou Dan, it followed closely behind, also pouncing toward the wolf pack along with Hei Dan.
Those who know you best are often your enemies!
Although the wolf pack had retreated, neither bear had relaxed their vigilance.
As competitors in the wilderness, Hei Dan and Gou Dan were too familiar with the cunning of these guys.
And the result was exactly as the two bears had expected: the wolf pack had indeed returned.
In fact, if they didn't come back, they wouldn't be wolves; only when you beat them and kill them until they are afraid might they stay away from you.
At the very least, until the wolf pack has enough strength for revenge, they will choose to stay away from you.
Seeing the two bears lunging out, the sneaking wolf pack was stunned.
Then, without caring about the prey in front of them, the wolf king took the lead and fled into the jungle.
Seeing this, Hei Dan didn't stop its pursuit this time.
Hei Dan decided that today it must give this pack of wolves a profound lesson so they wouldn't dare to offend again easily.
As for Gou Dan, although it intended to stop the pursuit, seeing that Hei Dan had already chased after them, it was afraid Hei Dan would be in danger, so it had to follow.
Afterward, in the wilderness jungle, the sound of crows screaming constantly echoed, accompanied by wolf howls and bear roars.
As for Xiao Yi, he comfortably turned over and continued to sleep.
The next morning, the sky was clear again; compared to yesterday, today seemed much warmer because the raging cold wind had finally stopped.
"Mm-mm! Mm-mm!"
The small lynx had long since woken up and was playing with Huang Mao.
Perhaps because this little thing hadn't been hit by pine nuts for a few days, it had forgotten the consequences of disturbing Xiao Yi's sleep.
But the two little guys had indeed had a good sleep today; the log cabin had given them too much of a sense of security.
During those two days in the wilderness, they had slept in a cave with Gou Dan; how could the two little guys have slept soundly then?
Xiao Yi, however, noticed the movement inside the log cabin, slowly woke up, sat up, stretched, rubbed his eyes, and looked outside.
Yesterday was a good sleep; although he was woken up in the middle, he quickly fell back asleep, making Xiao Yi feel that his overall spirit today was quite good.
Just looking at the sun rising high outside, he was a bit surprised that the two bears hadn't come to wake him up today.
