Chapter 1076 Who is to blame
It was now past eight in the morning. Regardless of whether the people in the cave ate two or three hot meals a day, now was not the time to make a fire and cook. Also, no one would install monitoring equipment in the flue. Xia Qing breathed a sigh of relief and continued to climb inside.

After crawling forward for more than 20 meters along the winding cave, there was light three meters ahead. The ash on the stone walls of the passage was getting thicker and thicker. It seemed that the people inside had lived here for quite some time.

Based on the shape of the iron pot exposed in the light, Xia Qing judged that the front exit was an iron pot with a diameter of no less than 70 cm. If this size of iron pot is used to cook porridge, it is enough for 15 people.

Of course, there may be less than 15 people living here, and they use such a large iron pot for the convenience of boiling water, just like Xia Qing.

Xia Qing crawled forward another two meters and reached the exit of the flue. When she was concentrating on using her hearing to detect the situation in the cave, the old wolf behind her gently bit her calf. The old wolf was using his movements to remind her that there was movement outside.

Xia Qing stood still, observing the situation outside through the limited vision at the stove mouth.

Soon, light footsteps were heard coming from far away. Xia Qing heard the sound of a heavy iron door sliding, and the wind that rushed into the cave drilled into the stove, raising a fine dust on Xia Qing's protective mask.

Her protective mask was made of high-grade dust-proof material. Fine dust slowly fell, and a pair of feet wearing military boots appeared in Xia Qing's field of vision.

These military boots are of the same style as the ones Xia Qing and the wolf pack captured on the vagrants at Mountain No. 37 in the Western Evolution Forest.

Xia Qing didn't move, his breathing was slow and his mood was calm. He tried his best to reduce his presence. He closed his eyes and used his hearing to lock onto the echo of his footsteps, judging the size and shape of the cave based on the echo.

"How about it?"

A woman with a hoarse voice asked about the situation, and Xia Qing used her hearing to locate her position - 15 meters to the left and front of the stove.

The man in military boots was a little impatient. "The helicopter is just circling above, scaring people who want to enter Huisan through this mountain area. Xiaojing is guarding the entrance to the cave, don't worry."

The woman sighed, "Magnetic sense is useful, but Xiaojing's detection diameter is only 30 meters, which is still too small. My left eye started twitching yesterday, and I always feel like something is going to happen. We must be careful. If this place is exposed, we will have nowhere to hide."

"You haven't evolved the ability to predict the future, so don't scare yourself all the time." The man in military boots cursed, "In the final analysis, this matter is all Hui San's Qinglong's fault! If Yang Jin hadn't caught our evolved wolf, Fu Tianfeng wouldn't have discovered that the wolf had undergone surgery, and he wouldn't have been angry and captured Peng Yuancai and alarmed Hong Yi. If Peng Yuancai hadn't been in trouble, the Fire Phoenix wouldn't have led people back to the safe zone, and the Liehuo Mountain wouldn't have been blown up by Mie Shi, and we wouldn't have to be stuck in this broken cave with nothing!"

The woman sweeping the floor with a broom sneered and said to herself, "You blame Qinglong? He also blamed us for capturing an evolved wolf of too low a level. Even after taking medicine, it couldn't outrun Yang Jin."

A few seconds later, the man raised his voice, "That's right! The attack on Fu Tianfeng will definitely be blamed on us by those beasts in the end. Damn it! If we want to blame someone, we should blame the Liehuo Production Department for not putting too little explosives in the collar. If they put more explosives, we could have blown up both the wolf and Yang Jin, and now there would be nothing wrong!!!"

The man walked past the stove with heavy footsteps. Judging from his shadow sliding past the stove, he was carrying a crossbow and no heavy weapons such as spears or rocket launchers.

"Bang!"

The man walked forward about 10 meters and kicked the iron cage hard. Two weak but angry wolf howls came into the smoke duct, and the muscles of the old wolf that was clinging to Xia Qing's legs instantly tensed up.

No wonder the fourth brother had rushed to find her. It turned out that there were wolves captured by wanderers in the cave. The two wolves' cries were so weak. Was it because they hadn't recovered from the surgery or because they had taken medicine?

"Crack--" In the chimney, the sound of stones breaking came from behind Xia Qing. It was probably the little wolf girl who had little experience and was impatient. She heard the wolf howling and was not paying attention, so she broke a thin piece of stone with her sharp claws.

"What's that noise?!" The woman put down her broom and picked up her weapon. From the sound of the safety being turned off, she was holding a homemade rifle. She should be an auditory evolver, but her level was not high.

The man standing on the other side of the cave spoke after a few seconds. "What else? A helicopter. Stop being suspicious."

"No, there's movement in the stove chimney. Maybe some animal has gotten in. Go call Xiao Jing in and block the chimney exit!"

"You are so troublesome. Which chimney exit?" Although the man complained, he still walked out while confirming the target. It was obvious that he believed in the woman's ability.

"Block them all, quickly! If a pack of wolves comes here and makes a noise that alarms the helicopter, it will be over!" The woman urged, holding a homemade rifle.

There were only two people in the cave, one carrying a crossbow, the other holding a homemade gun, and there was also a magnetic evolver outside the cave.

When the magnetic evolver enters the cave, he will immediately find the man and four wolves hiding in the chimney.

Xia Qing used his left hand to lift the big iron pot towards the direction of the woman. At the moment the light at the entrance of the cave appeared, the first bullet shot at the man. After getting out of the flue and taking cover of the stove, Xia Qing pressed the trigger again, then turned to face left and pressed the trigger for the third time.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

"Oh!"

As the three gunshots and the loud noise of an iron pot falling to the ground echoed in the cave, Xia Qing, clad in black, rushed towards the man with a crossbow on his back who was holding up a protective shield to avoid the bullets and quickly retreating towards the cave entrance. He punched the protective shield hard, knocking him down and pinning him down.

At the same time, the old wolf behind Xia Qing came out of the chimney and rushed towards the woman lying on the left.

The leader wolf came out third and occupied the highest point in the cave.

The little wolf sister, who followed closely behind her mother, immediately took up the guard position on her mother's left. The black wolf discovered that the old wolf had bitten the woman's neck, so he rushed to Xia Qing and bit the right leg of the man who was pressed under her protective shield.

Xia Qing pulled the shield to the right, raised her hand and took out a syringe from the medicine bag, injected an anesthetic into the man who had vomited blood and fainted, then tied him up tightly with a rope and plugged his mouth with a cork, then rushed to the blue-skinned woman bitten by Lao Si, "Lao Si, let go, she's dead."

Perhaps it was because they had lived in the Evolution Forest for too long, or perhaps it was because they felt very safe here, but neither of them wore protective masks, which made it easier for Xia Qing to plug the cork and for the old wolf to bite the humans' vital parts.

The woman was shot in the back by her and was dead.

The angry old wolf let out a low roar from his throat, let go of the dead human, and rushed towards the other human who was held down by the black wolf.
