Chapter 146 - 146 Wolf King!
146 Wolf King!
Lin Suisui didn’t get out of the carriage the entire night. She curled up under the blanket and flipped back and forth the entire night, but she was still extremely energetic and didn’t feel sleepy at all.
She didn’t expect Lu Ze’s sudden change in attitude last night!
She had never thought that she and Lu Ze were actual husband and wife. Although sometimes, in front of outsiders, she would cooperate with Lu Ze to do some relatively intimate actions and call him husband…
However, she had always thought that Lu Ze was acting, like her!
However, last night, Lu Ze told her that he had never treated all of this as an act. She was the only one acting…
How did things turn out like this?!
However, to be honest, when she heard Lu Ze say this, she had accepted it…
It was one thing to accept it, but she really couldn’t go out and pretend that nothing had happened with Lu Ze! However, seeing that it was dawn, she couldn’t continue to hide in the carriage anymore…
After agonizing over it for a long time, Lin Suisui finally tidied herself up and slowly lifted the curtain to climb out. However, to her surprise, when she looked up, she saw Lu Ze already standing inches away from her. He looked down at her with a smile.
Lin Suisui was caught off guard and almost fell off the carriage. Fortunately, Lu Ze reacted quickly and reached out to help her. Before Lin Suisui could recover, he had already wrapped one arm around her waist and carried her off the ox cart.
“Breakfast is ready. Go wash up and eat!” It was unknown if Lu Ze could tell that Lin Suisui was uneasy and nervous, but after putting her safely on the ground, he stood up and turned to leave.
Lin Suisui watched as Lu Ze left. Then, she raised her hand and patted her chest gently to calm herself down. Fortunately, he didn’t continue to stay here. Otherwise, she really wouldn’t know what to do!
However, Lin Suisui didn’t know that Lu Ze, who had turned to leave, was smiling.
After interacting with her for so many days, Lu Ze had figured out Lin Suisui’s temper and personality. She was very smart, but she was quite dense when it came to relationships.
He couldn’t let her continue to be ignorant, but he couldn’t pressure her too much either. He had to leave her enough space to ease her tension. Just like boiling a frog in warm water, if the frog was alarmed from the beginning, it might jump out and escape in an instant!
He could only take it slow and let her get used to it. He could slowly let her get used to his existence.
After Lin Suisui finished breakfast, she didn’t await Lu Ze’s return. Instead, Mrs. Luo returned from outside.
“Erlang has already entered the mountain. He asked me to come back and tell you that you don’t have to go to work today. Get some rest!” Mrs. Luo winked at Lin Suisui with a knowing smile. “Erlang hunted two pheasants yesterday. I’ll slack off for the day and stay behind to make soup for you and Yuan Niang.”
Yuan Niang’s wound had healed quite well. After all, Pei Qian had a lot of medicine to treat external injuries.
In the past two days, she had been able to sit up. Although she couldn’t get off the ox cart yet, she could lift the curtain and chat with Lin Suisui and Mrs. Luo, who were busy with work by the bonfire outside.
“The wolves in the north are very domineering in the winter. My cousin’s family suffered a calamity when the wolves attacked the village!” Hearing Lin Suisui and the others mention the wolves, Yuan Niang couldn’t help but sigh softly. She was a native of the north, so she naturally knew more about what had happened here than Lin Suisui and the others.
After she found out that the refugee camp had already been surrounded by the wolf pack, Yuan Niang’s expression changed slightly. She told Lin Suisui and the others in a low voice, “Mr. Pei’s arrangement is right. The wolf pack has always bullied the weak and feared the strong! If the entire refugee camp does nothing now and evacuates, the wolf pack will definitely follow us like vultures that smell meat and kill everyone in the refugee camp!”
“As the saying goes, we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it! As long as all of us work together now, we won’t have to worry about not being able to escape!”
Mrs. Luo was very optimistic. She had experienced a lot along the way.
Previously, when they passed by the desert, there were really a few times when she thought that they would be trapped in the desert forever like those people who fell on the road and couldn’t get up!
However, in the end, there was a way out for them!
Since they could escape safely previously, they definitely could now!
This time, the situation was much better than last time. At least they didn’t have to worry about food and drink. Unlike last time, when some people didn’t even get full meals!
“Wolf packs actually have weaknesses.”
Yuan Niang listened to Mrs. Luo recount everything that had happened when they passed through the desert. When she heard about what had just happened, she couldn’t help but marvel at the experiences of these people in the refugee camp, but she admired them as well!
She paused for a moment before saying to Lin Suisui, “Although there are many wolves in the north, it’s actually rare for them to gather on such a large scale in recent years.
Typically, a wolf pack of more than ten people won’t cause much damage to the refugee camp, and they most likely gathered together because a new Wolf King has appeared in the north.”
“Wolf King?!” Lin Suisui was stunned. This was really the first time she had heard of this.
“Yes, it’s the Wolf King.” The woman nodded and said to Lin Suisui with certainty, “In a small wolf pack, the alpha is in charge of arranging everything. The alpha must be the absolute king in its wolf pack, but without his pack, it’s not easy for it to obtain the submission of other wolves.
Unless it could defeat the leader of all these small wolves!
As for the Wolf King, it’s the one who defeated all these wolf packs’ leaders!
It can order the wolves to scatter and attack the refugee camp!
If there’s a way to find this Wolf King and get rid of it, the wolf pack that has lost its leader will quickly disintegrate.”
After saying this, as if afraid that Lin Suisui wouldn’t believe her, she continued to explain, “I heard about these things from my grandfather. When my grandfather was young, he was a famous hunter in our hometown!”
