Chapter 1333: hungry wolf

Hearing the howling of wolves, Li Changheng was startled and hurriedly dressed.

Put on the holster, pull out the Glock to check it out, and walk out of the tent with the climbing pick.

Danba and others have also woken up and walked out of their tents one after another.

Because of the snow everywhere, even though it is still snowing in the sky, the visibility can still see the situation tens of meters away.

For Li Changheng, he can still see clearly at a distance of two to three hundred meters, not to mention one or two kilometers.

And listen carefully to the direction of howling wolves, it is definitely above the snow line, maybe even a kilometer or two away.

Not long after, Danba smiled and said, "Boss, although the wolves are not far away from us, according to past experience, wild wolves rarely climb to a height of 6 or 7 kilometers.

After all, except blue sheep, which climb to the snow line to avoid predators, basically no herbivores can survive at this height. "

These words reminded Li Changheng that although some animals are quite intelligent, they all follow their instincts.

Since there are few prey on the snow line, the wolves will not run up to waste energy.

The only thing to note is that if the wolves are chasing prey, it is another matter.

After expressing this worry, Danba and others also became nervous.

In the end, I simply turned on the emergency lights. Anyway, even if I can’t walk to the 4,500-meter base camp tomorrow, I can still go down by helicopter.

Then there is the vigil in batches.

10 people are in groups of two, and even if each group only stays for an hour, the sky is almost dawn.

As for Li Changheng, of course he went to bed.

However, this time he did not take off his clothes, but lay directly in the sleeping bag.

But within an hour, the howling of wolves was getting closer and closer, and now everyone understood that the wolves might really be chasing a prey that was not too small in size.

Several guides asked Danba worriedly, "What should I do?"

Encountering hungry wolves at night in the wild is still very dangerous, not to mention that it is still early spring, and wolves that have been hungry for a winter will have stronger attack power.

Danba couldn't help looking at Li Changheng, more precisely, it was the Glock on his waist.

The others followed suit, and couldn't help but feel glad that Li Changheng hadn't given up on that gun.

Li Changheng wasn't worried, unless he was deep in sleep and dead, otherwise with a climbing pick, he had enough confidence that killing a wolf was as easy as killing a chicken.

Not to mention that even if the waist Glock has only one magazine, it has 17 rounds of bullets.

With his own marksmanship, he could kill 17 of them with one shot. If he added the extremely sharp and sickle-like climbing picks, twenty or thirty of them would not be on his mind.

But the gunfire is also likely to trigger an avalanche.

Said to Danba and others, "You all form a circle, and leave the rest to me."

As soon as these words came out, Danba and the others breathed a sigh of relief, "Boss, anyway, it's only 5 or 6 hours before dawn, and you don't have to worry about supplies, why don't you collect half of the tents and flammables and light them up.

The firelight should scare the wolves away. "

Li Changheng shook his head, "If the wolves are too hungry, the fire will attract the wolves."

"It's useless, boss," Danba reminded, "Even at night, the wolves can see far away. As long as we stay here, the beasts should still be able to spot us."

This is true, the night vision of animals is generally several times stronger than that of humans, and with the surrounding white snow, the light can see farther.

Sure enough, not long after, Li Changheng saw a group of dark moving figures from a distance.

"coming."

Danba and others hurriedly observed with binoculars, and when they saw at least 17 or 8 wolves, their faces turned pale.

Once the number of carnivorous animals increases to a certain level, the courage will increase exponentially.

The target that the wolves were chasing was unexpectedly not a wild yak or a blue sheep, but a domestic yak with a saddle similar to a saddle.

After seeing clearly through the binoculars, Danba exclaimed, "Something must have happened to the caravan transporting the goods."

But after speaking, no one planned to rescue the caravan.

And the yak probably spotted a group of them, and ran towards them without hesitation.

Hell, Li Changheng cursed in his heart, and then his heart moved, he looked at Danba and asked, "If I kill that yak and pay compensation, no one will trouble me, right?"

Danba was taken aback for a moment, but quickly realized, "Of course."

Li Changheng said what he just said just because he didn't want Danba and others to be hostile to him, after all he didn't know the taboos of the locals.

He weighed and weighed the climbing pick in his hand, and when the yak was thirty meters away from him, he shook his hand violently.

The sickle-like mountaineering pick circled rapidly in the air and flew straight to the yak's head with a muffled sound.

The huge yak seemed to be concentrated in the head by a heavy hammer, and a cloud of blood burst out of its head. It staggered and only continued to run a few steps before falling headlong into the snow.

This frightened the wolves who were more than twenty meters away and stopped in their tracks.

But Danba and others excitedly cheered in a low voice.

With this yak, it is impossible for the wolves to continue to attack themselves and others.

If another fire is lit, the safety will be even higher.

Not long after the wolves were frightened, it was probably because of the smell of blood on the yak's head that the hungry wolves were stimulated.

A few wolves left the team and slowly approached the yak that was still alive at a trot.

After confirming that Li Changheng and the others hadn't moved, the wolves suddenly became ferocious. Except for the wolf that bit the yak, the others threw themselves on the yak's belly and other soft places to bite fiercely.

Soon the smell of blood became stronger, and the stimulating wolves became restless.

There was a low growl, and the pack of wolves got the response from the leader wolf, and immediately rushed up, biting the yak.

And Li Changheng frowned more and more as he looked at it, because he saw several wolves with more or less wounds and bloodstains.

It seemed that this group of wolves had already experienced some struggles before, and looking at the saddles on the yaks, there was no need to guess that some unlucky guy must have entered the stomach of the wolves.

But Li Changheng is not in the mood to avenge the opponent~lightnovelpub.net~ Anyway, the wolves are full, so they will definitely not attack again tonight.

Go down after dawn, and there will be a helicopter to pick you up near the snow line.

But as soon as this idea came out, Li Changheng looked at the snowflakes floating in the sky again, and he couldn't help feeling worried again.

Turning back to Danba and the others, he asked, "How many climbing picks do you have?"

Danba was taken aback, and quickly understood what he wanted to do, "Boss, we don't need to provoke these wolves."

Of course, Li Changheng would not deliberately provoke the vengeful wolves.

But he also had to guard against the wolves who had been hungry all winter, and would not leave even if they were full.

In addition to having eaten people, this group of wolves might guard themselves and others from afar, looking for opportunities to attack at night.
