Chapter 1584 - Birds Die for Food
In Chapter 844 of "My Super Beautiful Lady Boss": "Little brother, youâve saved our lives. As I said, on this journey, we all need... Discover the next events!
"Little brother, youâve saved our lives. As I said, on this journey, we all need to rely on you!"Bu Daming and Su Xuan said excitedly, knowing that this matter was truly thanks to Su Xuan.
"Haha, that also thanks to your Jade Emperor for helping!"
"Ahem... Little brother, donât make fun of me!"
Bu Daming laughed awkwardly. Because the roaring flames were burning, they were relatively safe. However, those wolves were relentless, not backing down. A chorus of howls echoed, responding to each other.
"Big brother, it seems like the wolves are getting fooled!"
At this moment, Brother Meng said excitedly. Su Xuan then noticed a dozen wolves surrounding the three knives, gnawing at them continuously.
"Haha, truly, man dies for wealth, as birds die for food!"
Su Xuan rubbed his nose, looking at those dozen wolves.
"Big Brother Su, what does that mean? Why are so many wolves gnawing on the knives?"
One of the girls asked curiously.
"Bloodthirsty, wolves are particularly sensitive to the smell of blood. Theyâll keep gnawing, until eventually, they canât even distinguish if itâs their own blood or not, until they bleed out and die in the Great Desert!"
Su Xuan explained quietly.
The others were shocked upon hearing this, thinking these wolves were indeed ruthless, ignoring the pain to continue gnawing.
Su Xuan glanced at Luo Tianyi, who was also looking at him. When she saw Su Xuan looking at her, she turned her head away.
Su Xuan was genuinely interested in Luo Tianyi. This woman even had a gun. In Huaxia, thatâs illegal, but for such big families, secretly buying guns wasnât too big a deal.
Su Xuan was absolutely convinced Luo Tianyi wasnât there just for inspiration; she had a reason to enter this Great Desert.
As for Luo Tianyi, Su Xuan didnât have much impression of her, probably from the Imperial Capital area, a place he wasnât familiar with.
"You all better keep an eye on this fire, donât let it go out. And everyone takes turns keeping watch, otherwise, if the wolves break in, weâll be in danger!"
Su Xuan reminded them, looking at the abundance of firewood and solid fuel, estimating that there shouldnât be much of a problem now.
Time ticked by, and the wolves still showed no intention of leaving. These creatures were indeed a headache; their determination was unparalleled. They wouldnât give up until they reached their goal, and with so many people here, they were unsatisfied if they didnât kill them.
"Little brother, if these guys donât leave, what are we going to do tomorrow?"
Looking at Su Xuan, Huo Qiyin asked with a worried face. To be honest, seeing these creatures made him break out in cold sweat. There were just too many of them.
"I think they donât attack us during the day because theyâre afraid of dehydration. For Desert Wolves to survive in the desert proves that theyâre truly battle-hardened, so they understand the desertâs habits. Itâs hot during the day, making dehydration easy, so they wonât attack during the day.
"Another reason, I guess, is because of the Wolf King. Without cover in the desert, the Wolf King also fears encountering human hunters. If he gets shot, these wolves would be finished. So, Iâm convinced theyâll retreat during the day!"
When Su Xuan finished explaining, the others were shocked, thinking this guy had a wild imagination. However, they felt his explanation made sense.
"Alright, you all sleep first. Iâll keep watch for now. In the second half of the night, you all take turns while I get some sleep!"
Su Xuan said this, and no one thought he was arrogant. When the others took their shifts in the second half of the night, they were likely more nervous than Su Xuan was. Even with the fire, some bold wolves ventured close, at which point they fought them off with spears made by Su Xuan.
One by one, they all curled up in the middle to sleep a bit. Su Xuan came to the fire, took out a cigarette, and started smoking. The wolves, seeing Su Xuan, let out howls, wishing they could tear this guy apart.
"Whatâs with all the howling?"
Su Xuan took out his phone. There was no signal here, but this guy had the leisure to take selfies.
"You really are quite carefree!"
At this moment, Luo Tianyi walked over slowly and sat down next to Su Xuan.
"How come youâre not sleeping?"
Su Xuan took a deep drag of his cigarette and asked softly.
"Canât sleep. Do you have a cigarette? Give me one."
"Haha... you smoke?"
Su Xuan asked curiously.
"Why not?"
"Uh... not really, Iâm just a bit surprised!"
Su Xuan said as he handed her a cigarette. Luo Tianyi lit it up, took a puff, and blew a smoke ring. The ring was beautiful, clearly showing she was experienced.
Su Xuan smiled faintly.
"Donât you have anything you want to ask me?"
Luo Tianyi leaned against the sand, glanced at the wolves in the distance, then at Su Xuan, and asked softly.
"You mean about having a gun?"
Su Xuan shrugged.
"Actually, getting those guns isnât hard if you have some money. But honestly, I think you should get a few grenades. If you had grenades, I guarantee these wolves would be scared to death!"
Luo Tianyi was at a loss for words, thinking this guyâs ideas really were out of the ordinary. She originally thought Su Xuan would be very curious, because after all, she had a gun.
But this guy said he lacked grenades, making her wonder if he was a bit too invincible.
"Alright, I guess I overthought it!"
Luo Tianyi took another puff of her cigarette, then lay down next to Su Xuan, looking at the stars in the sky.
"But thereâs one thing Iâm actually quite curious about. Are you really here to seek inspiration?"
Originally, Su Xuan didnât want to ask this, but since Luo Tianyi came over to chat with him, he couldnât resist asking out of curiosity.
"Uh..."
Luo Tianyi looked at Su Xuan, thinking he already knew she wasnât here for inspiration. Why ask?
"Iâm not!"
Luo Tianyi, in front of Su Xuan, didnât bother lying. This guy was so smart it was terrifying.
"Then what are you here for? Honestly, for someone like you, finding a reason for needing money is impossible, so are you here for the Eternal Life Medicine?"
Su Xuan asked curiously.
Luo Tianyi rolled her eyes, thinking, "Youâre the one looking for the Eternal Life Medicine."
