Chapter 121: Escape

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

This was no place to linger. The strong smell of blood might attract other predators, so after a brief tidy up, everyone prepared to descend the mountain Wang Wen was supported by Jiang Chuan, while Jiang Xia and Jiang Gu helped a soldier with a leg injury. Another soldier, whose injuries were lighter, had to make his own way down the mountain. As for Shen Mo…

Jiang Xia sneaked a glance at the boy with a pallid face riding on Zhou Lan’s back. It couldn’t be helped, Shen Mo was more severely injured, not just his waist and abdomen, but his legs as well, which were clawed by the wolves. The sight was heartbreaking.

Shen Mo initially refused to be carried, but his face turned pale from pain with any movement. Eventually, they decided that the strongest, Zhou Lan, would carry him.

With everyone’s persuasion, Shen Mo finally agreed to ride on Zhou Lan’s back.

Because Shen Mo’s pale face was amusing, Jiang Xia couldn’t help but sneak a few more glances at him. Shen Mo didn’t need to feel embarrassed, he was, after all, just eighteen, the same age as Jiang Xia in modern times, still a big boy. There was nothing shameful about being carried.

As the sound of distant wolf howls reached them, everyone quickened their pace. It was only when they descended the mountain that they let out a sigh of relief. It was like they had walked right out of hell’s gates.

As soon as they reached the foot of the mountain, Jiang Xia saw a man waiting by with a shoulder bag. Seeing the injuries on Shen Mo and the others, he rushed over in surprise, taking over the person Jiang Xia and Jiang Gu were supporting.

“What happened?” the man asked.

“We’ll talk over there,” Shen Mo replied, his voice sounding weak.

However, once everyone sat down, the man with the shoulder bag didn’t get a chance to get near Shen Mo again, as Zhou Lan was treating his wounds.

Seeing this, the soldier being supported by Jiang Xia and Jiang Gu led the man with the shoulder bag to sit down, and started to recount what had happened on the mountain.

Jiang Chuan was also asking about this matter.

“Brother Wang, why did you guys go up the mountain?” Jiang Chuan asked after taking a sip of water from Jiang Xia.

In casual conversation earlier, it was mentioned that Wang Wen was two years older than Jiang Chuan, so he addressed him as ‘Brother Wang’.

Wang Wen sighed and looked towards Shen Mo, who was sitting with Jiang Xia and Zhou Lan not far away.

“Our young master heard your family was going into the mountains and wanted to come too,” he said.

On hearing this, Jiang Chuan was surprised, “Brother Wang, you came up without any preparation?”

Wang Wen smiled bitterly. They did have some preparation, they brought guns, thinking there wouldn’t be any issues. But they ran into a pack of wolves as soon as they entered the mountain, and for some reason, the wolves pounced as soon as they saw them.

“We had weapons, but there were too many wolves. We were outnumbered.”

Listening to this, Jiang Chuan thought it made sense. Wang Wen and his group were different from them, who went up the mountain casually like villagers picking vegetables and came back down. Being attacked by a pack of wolves was an accident.

An accident…

Jiang Chuan suddenly remembered the wolf attack they had experienced some time ago and frowned deeply.

“Not to keep anything from you, Brother Wang,” Jiang Chuan continued, “we also experienced a wolf attack before. Luckily, we were inside our wooden house, which was sturdy enough to save us.”

Jiang Chuan slightly altered the details of the incident. He figured that the wolves probably gave up attacking the house after a while because they couldn’t smell them. Given the wolves’ fearlessness today, they might have met with misfortune that day as well.

“You guys were attacked by wolves too?” Wang Wen asked in surprise.

“Yes, our situation was similar to yours today,” Jiang Chuan replied. “We were sleeping when the child’s mother heard the wolves howling and woke us up. We saw the wolves through the crack in the door.”

Wang Wen frowned.” Although the drought outside is severe, 1 can see that there are still some small animals in the mountains. These wolves shouldn’t be hungry enough to attack humans.”

Seeing Wang Wen touch upon the crucial point, Jiang Chuan followed up, “The child’s mother and I thought the same, so we took the children down the mountain the next day. Back in the village, we learned a few things. It seems like someone intentionally caused the wolves to attack us.”

Wang Wen looked serious, understanding the implications of Jiang Chuan’s unsaid words. He wondered if someone was also trying to harm them, causing this incident. But Wang Wen felt this was unlikely. Not for any other reason, but because Shen Mo’s spontaneous suggestion to go up the mountain today was not pre-planned.

Thinking about it, Wang Wen shook his head, “It’s probably just a coincidence.”

Just then, Jiang Chuan raised another question, “Brother Wang, did you guys encounter anyone or anything unusual while you were going up the mountain?”

Hearing Jiang Chuan’s question, Wang Wen suddenly remembered that they had met a couple at the foot of the mountain. The pair acted suspiciously, and if they hadn’t needed directions, they wouldn’t have talked to such people..
