Chapter 190

“I saw some withered grass piled up somewhere along the way up the mountain, Susan said slowly. “Let’s go over and light the grass. The smoke will definitely attract the attention of the rescue team.”

“Okay.” Timothy agreed.

When they went up the mountain, Timothy paid no attention to the surroundings; he paid all his attention to Susan.

Susan seemed to be absentminded, but in fact, she had gathered a lot of information about the place.

Timothy let out a bitter laugh.

In his eyes, Susan paid so much attention to the surroundings because she was preparing to escape.

Susan didn’t notice Timothy’s reaction. She said in a cautious tone, “I didn’t try this method because I was afraid that the fire would attract more beasts over. Now, we have no other choice, so we have to take the risk.”

“I know.” Timothy calmed down and quickly agreed.

“Follow me then.” With the torch in hand, Susan slowly moved in a certain direction.

Once the wolves approached them, she would wave the torch to scare them away.

There were just four wolves, and they didn’t dare to attack Susan and Timothy for they had a torch and knife.

In this subtle confrontation, Susan reached the place where she saw the pile of dried grass,

It was strange that the pile of dried grass was placed together orderly as if someone had done that on purpose. However, who would be so bored as to do that deep in the mountain?

Despite that, Susan did not think too much about it.

She didn’t care who placed the grass together and what his purpose was.

Now, the pile of grass could save their lives.

Without hesitation, Susan lit the dried grass with the last torch they had.

The torch completely went out, but the grass was set on fire.

The fire soon erupted.

The smoke rose straight into the night sky.

In the mountains.

Ben raised his head and saw the smoke. His pupils suddenly contracted.

He believed that the fire was a signal sent out by Susan for help.

Ben immediately turned around and quickened his pace running in that direction.

The people who came with him followed him one after another.

Standing near the fire, Susan slowly threw some branches into the fire in an attempt to make it burn longer.

The fire was so strong that the wolves were finally a little scared.

They slowly retreated.

“They’re leaving.” Timothy was pleasantly surprised.

Susan nodded and was visibly overjoyed.

In their eyes, the wild wolves must have decided to give up.

The wolves slowly stepped back, and soon, they would get out of Susan’s and Timothy’s sight.

But at this moment…

It suddenly rained in the mountains without warning.

Timothy and Susan were instantly shocked and angry.

They wondered if God intended to make them die.

It rained so heavily.

“Run!” Susan quickly said,

Timothy nodded and started running. But before they could get far, they saw green shining eyes in front of them.

The wolves came back!
