Sure enough, after a while, four or five wolves returned and hid in the bushes to observe the situation. They stayed for a full hour before turning away.
That night, everyone stayed on the tree, and none of them felt sleepy. Sitting on the narrow tree trunk all night was incredibly uncomfortable.
Early the next morning, as the day broke, Old Liu observed the surroundings carefully and said to the people on the tree, "You can come down now."
Yang Fan also used his extraordinary sensing ability to scan an area within a 500 meter radius, indeed finding no trace of the wolf pack.
As they got down from the tree, everyone was aching in their backs and legs, but Old Liu's words forced them to muster the energy: "Quickly leave here, the wolf pack could return at any time."
Sun Yong'an and his group were departing, and the two teams were about to separate. Before leaving, Sun Yong'an bid farewell to Lu Yunshuang: "Yunshuang, take care on the road."
"Uncle, you too."
