But the ‘Old Money’ on the other side still didn’t make a sound.
Instead, he continued to wave his hand at him in a strange way.
Li Yu didn’t think much of it and continued to walk towards him, curiously asking.
“Uncle Old Money, why aren’t you talking? Did you fall?”
At this moment, a gust of wind blew over the mountain slope.
It blew away a lot of the mist that was circling the mountain.
Li Yu thought Old Money had fallen or something, and was anxious to go check.
Who would have known that the mist had dissipated a bit, and when he glanced over there, he felt his scalp tingle.
Standing there was not his Uncle Old Money, but a black bear.
It was standing behind a clump of grass, hiding part of its body.
Plus, it had a hat on its head, which made Li Yu mistake it for a person.
Just as he was panicking.
The bear on the other side let out a loud roar.
It crouched down and charged towards him.
At that moment, Li Yu was so scared that his whole body went limp. It was too late to pull out the gun on his back.
He instinctively ran backwards, but tripped over a tree root.
He fell directly to the ground.
Seeing the bear getting closer.
Just as it was about to pounce on him with a claw.
Suddenly, two gunshots rang out, making the bear howl twice in pain. It rolled on the ground for a while, then.
Quickly got up, and without looking back, disappeared into the mist.
At that time, Li Yu was so scared that he almost peed his pants.
“Da Yu, Da Yu, are you hurt?”
Seeing that the danger was gone, the old man and Er Lengzi ran towards Li Yu.
He was so scared that he directly buried his face in his grandfather’s chest and cried.
After he explained everything, the two finally understood what had happened.
At that time, the old man also scolded him a bit, before telling him that in the forest, if someone puts their arm on your shoulder, don’t turn around because there’s a wolf behind you, waiting for you to turn around so it can grab your throat.
If someone waves at you, don’t go, because that’s an old bear, imitating a human. It’s trying to lure you over before pouncing on you and eating you.
Later, they found Old Money’s body less than a hundred meters away.
He had been eaten beyond recognition, especially around the eyes. They were licked clean, leaving only two holes, which looked terrifying.
Later, they carefully searched the area and found his clothes and belongings, but that hat was nowhere to be found.
As Li Yu finished speaking.
Everyone present shuddered.
They felt a chill run from the soles of their feet to the back of their heads.
Especially Bai Lu, the only woman in the group.
She was shivering all over, wishing she could jump into Li Yu’s arms to feel safe.
Li Xue Wu took a puff of his cigarette and regained his composure. Then he said.
“So that’s how Old Money died. I thought it was just people in the village gossiping.”
Bai Lu also asked weakly.
“Then did you kill the bear that pretended to be a human?”
Li Yu shook his head.
“We didn’t find it. Grandpa looked at the blood and found that it wasn’t a fatal shot. That beast would definitely not die. Later, he took the dogs to go after it, but they never found its tracks.”
Bai Lu was even more afraid when she heard this.
She looked at the dark forest around them, afraid that something would jump out at any moment.
She regretted opening her mouth even more.
She was so stupid to have Li Yu tell such a story. Now she was even more scared.
Seeing the three educated youths looking suspicious.
Li Xue Wu smiled.
“So, you guys need to listen to me and don’t go into the woods. Don’t lose your life by accident.”
This little story was a huge help to him.
If he had to explain it slowly to these rebellious kids, no matter how many times he said it, they wouldn’t take it to heart.
His nephew did a good thing this time.
The three of them nodded in unison.
After hearing this story, they wouldn’t dare enter the forest even with ten lives.
Li Xue Wu nodded in satisfaction.
He reassured them.
“But don’t worry, we’re on the main road, so there shouldn’t be any bears, badgers or anything like that coming out. They’re all hibernating in the deep mountains right now. Don’t be scared.”
Hearing this.
The three of them felt a little less worried.
Only Li Yu twitched at the corner of his mouth.
He didn’t know if it was an illusion, but he felt like his uncle was setting himself up for a fall.
It’s not a good habit.
“Woof woof woof!”
At this moment.
Huahua, who was at Li Yu’s feet, seemed to respond to Li Yu’s worry.
It barked continuously at the forest next to it.
Li Yu immediately felt his scalp tingle and quickly raised the hunting rifle on his back.
He was so scared that it came true.
It was dark around them, and he couldn’t see anything, he didn’t know what it was.
“Da Yu?”
Li Xue Wu didn’t expect that right after he said those words, something would happen.
“Uncle, something is coming. You and Lao Yu watch over these three, and don’t let them run into the forest.”
“No….. This…..”
Seeing Li Yu’s serious expression.
Bai Lu and the remaining two male educated youths were also scared to death.
They didn’t know what to do at this moment.
When Li Xue Wu heard this, he knew how serious the problem was and quickly pushed the three educated youths onto the oxcart.
Lao Yu quickly poured all the oil in the bottle onto the torch, hoping to make it burn brighter and scare that beast away.
Looking at the dark forest in front of him and Huahua, who was still barking at his feet.
Li Yu immediately raised his hunting rifle.
He fired a shot into the air.
“Bang.”
The gunshot was unusually loud in the quiet surroundings.
It scared the three educated youths hiding in the cart so much that they were trembling.
After the gunshot.
Li Yu, while expertly changing bullets, observed the movements of the forest opposite him.
In the sound of the wind blowing through the treetops, Li Yu also heard the sound of footsteps on the snow.
The good news was that it didn’t sound like a big one.
The bad news was that it wasn’t one, but a group.
Li Yu couldn’t help but twitch at the corner of his mouth, these damn educated youths really did them in.
After settling the three scaredy cats.
Li Xue Wu also found a torch, lit it, and walked in front of Li Yu.
“Da Yu, is it still there?”
Li Yu nodded and sighed.
“Uncle, we’re in trouble today. It’s probably wolves.”
In their area, there are only two types of animals that can travel in packs.
One is the red dog, which is a jackal, similar to the dog we have at home, so they call it the red dog in their area.
The other is the wolf, which makes people afraid.
This thing travels in packs, and ordinary things can’t scare them.
