At this time, Du Changchun came over.

He was just about to thank Shuxin, but saw Shuxin waving at him.

"Brother Du, let's talk later. I have to go back to see my parents."

As if she thought of something, she quickly gave instructions to Du Changchun.

"Wolves are afraid of fire. We must hurry up and build a few big fires around here and make some torches."

After Shu Xin finished speaking, she turned around and ran away without waiting for Du Changchun to react.

Xiao Beiwang, who was standing by, also heard what Shu Xin said to Du Changchun. He frowned, his heart full of confusion.

How could Shu Xin understand all this?

But Shu Xin had already run far away, leaving only a nimble figure behind.

"Mr. Xiao...Thank you for your reminder just now."

Du Changchun clasped his fists and thanked Xiao Beiwang, his expression still a little unnatural.

Xiao Beiwang didn't care and waved at Du Changchun.

"You're too polite, Dudu! The most urgent thing is to gather everyone together, light the fire, and make more torches."

Du Changchun nodded, his face solemn and gloomy.

I just heard Xiao Beiwang say that there are as many as twenty or thirty wolves in the pack this time, and they have surrounded the camp.

This is all because the night patrol officers were not vigilant and neglected their duties.

Even more hateful is his nephew Wu Zhiyong.

Shuxin came to report the news, but he didn't believe it and treated her badly.

When he rushed over just now, Wu Zhiyong was afraid of being punished, so he ran away quickly using the excuse of convening people.

Du Changchun was secretly annoyed and decided that he would punish him severely this time.

Tell him to learn a lesson and stop acting like a big shot and taking advantage of the power of others!

But he also knew that now was not the time to hesitate and he had to make preparations quickly.

The two of them quickly said goodbye, and Xiao Beiwang walked towards the place where the Xiao family rested.

His face was cold and he felt that the arrival of the wolves this time was very strange.

This is just the foot of Yuxing Mountain, and there are no ferocious beasts here.

But for some reason, such a group of wolves suddenly appeared.

Because of insufficient preparation, I'm afraid it will be a fierce battle.

If not handled properly, there could be countless casualties.

He was thinking about how to deal with the situation, and suddenly thought of Shuxin.

He didn't expect that Shuxin noticed something was wrong earlier than him and ran over to report it.

Agile, courageous, brave and resourceful.

Is this still the domineering, rude and stupid beauty in the capital?

On the way back, Shu Xin met the Tao couple who came to look for her.

When the Tao couple saw Shuxin coming back, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Heart..."

"I'm here!"

Shuxin responded.

Signaling to mother and father not to make loud noises.

They both quickly understood and nodded in agreement.

Shuxin told the officers about the situation.

He did not mention the difficulties Wu Zhiyong had faced towards him, but only said that the message had been delivered.

Du Changchun will soon arrange someone to light the fire.

To be on the safe side, they could not rely entirely on the servants and had to make some preparations themselves.

They must hurry and make some torches.

Fortunately, she was worried about having to sleep outdoors this time, so she bought a bucket of kerosene.

If this doesn't work, rapeseed oil can also be used.

When the Tao couple saw Shuxin's serious look, they knew the situation was urgent.

Tao reacted very quickly and did not dare to delay at all.

She asked Yu Ansheng and Shu Xin to go get kerosene and rapeseed oil.

She went back to the tent to explain the situation.

As soon as Tao entered the tent, the two elders of the Tao family immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"mother……"

Everyone gathered around.

Tao glanced at everyone, his expression solemn.

The situation was urgent, so she didn't waste any time.

He told everyone about the current situation, especially emphasizing that the largest number of wolves gathered on the hill behind them, and it seemed that these wolves used this place as a breakthrough point.

After Tao finished speaking, everyone in the Tao family fell into a suppressed silence.

Everyone looked a little ugly.

"Mom, is this true?"

Tao Miaomiao was so frightened that her face turned pale. She couldn't believe it and hurried to confirm with Tao.

Those were wolves, and a pack of wolves. They were unarmed, and most of them were women. How could they escape from the wolves' mouths?

The more Tao Miaomiao thought about it, the more frightened she became, and she couldn't help but start to tremble.

Tao took Tao Miaomiao's hand and comforted her.

"It's true. Dudutou and his team have already started preparing, so we have to hurry up and prepare as well."

Tao said, looking at everyone.

Just now, Shu Xin told him and Yu Ansheng about the terrain she had explored.

The place where they rested was backed by a series of hills, and in front of them was a large plain.

A large number of wolves also gathered in front at this time.

The wolves surrounded the entire camp.

The situation was urgent, and there were only thirty or forty officers. When the wolves attacked, they would not be able to take care of the exiled prisoners.

Perhaps some ruthless officers would simply throw the exiled prisoners out to fight off the wolves.

Anyway, in the past, for an exile group of this many people, it would be good if half of them could survive when they reached their destination.

So, they have to find ways to protect themselves.

Tao also briefly explained to everyone what Shuxin had said.

After that, everyone fell silent again.

Liu rushed in from outside and heard this. She immediately said "Pooh" loudly.

"Tao Yunniang, you made this up, right? We are at the foot of the mountain, how could there be wolves here?"

Liu directly rebuked Tao and seemed to not believe what Tao said at all.

Tao was furious.

At this time, this stupid woman is still making a fuss. She really doesn't know how to live or die.

Seeing this, Yu Fang hurried to persuade her mother.

"Mom, what my aunt said must be true, otherwise she wouldn't have woken everyone up in the middle of the night, right?"

She persuaded softly, trying to speak in a gentle tone.

Unexpectedly, Liu refused to listen. She was so angry about being woken up and unable to sleep that she could not direct it at Tao and the others, so she immediately exploded at Yu Fang.

"You money-loser, you're really brave, aren't you? You're actually speaking to an outsider!"

As she spoke, she reached out and pinched Yu Fang's arm.

It was obvious that the blow was very strong. Without even looking, one could tell that Yu Fang's arm must have been bruised.

Tao didn't expect Liu to be so bad that she would attack her own daughter in front of everyone.

Poor Yu Fang, she could only grit her teeth and hold on, not daring to resist.

Liu pinched Yu Fang hard several times. Tao wanted to stop her but was stopped by Yu Fang with a look.

She knew that if she continued to persuade Yu Fang, Yu Fang would suffer even more.

I could only grit my teeth and keep silent, but I felt extremely heartbroken.

After teaching Yu Fang a lesson, Liu still felt unsatisfied.

She turned around and prepared to go back to her own makeshift tent.

"If you want to torment me, do it on your own. I'm going to sleep!"

She was about to leave as she spoke, and refused to listen to the Tao family's advice.

Yu Anquan saw this and smiled at the Tao family.

"Since you think there is a wolf, then you can figure out a solution on your own. We, my husband and I, will not accompany you!"

His smile was scoundrelly and sarcastic, and his shameless look made people even more angry.

Seeing this, the people of the Tao family stopped trying to persuade him.

Yu Anquan didn't care about anything else and followed Liu.

When Yu Fang saw her parents leave, she gritted her teeth and stayed.

"Aunt, I believe you. I will stay here and follow your arrangements."

Yu Fang's eyes were firm and it seemed that she had made up her mind.

Even if she would be beaten when she returned home, she would endure it.

Tao felt even more distressed.

She touched Yu Fang's head.

"Good boy!"
