"Want to fight?"
This sentence was not a problem at all for Wang Ping.
If it was a wolf or some other animal blocking the road, even a lion, Wang Ping would have slapped it in the face. To be honest, it was always the badger that blocked other people's roads, so when had it ever been blocked by anyone
But if it was a "senior" from the same clan, Wang Ping would start to hesitate.
To be honest, the only two times he faced his own kind were not very pleasant, and could even be said to be extremely bad. If he had a choice, he would rather give in. Anyway, there were animals all around and no one could see him, so what was the point of saving face
Unfortunately, he didn't know what was wrong with his own race. They were either too naive or too stubborn. They just couldn't stand fighting. Wang Ping was even sure that if he gave in, he would be attacked by this guy before he could take two steps.
He didn't know where this sixth sense came from, but after seeing the look in the eyes of this fellow tribesman, Wang Ping was inexplicably certain.
The surrounding animals all looked over with curiosity when they saw the two honey badgers fighting each other. It was hard to tell whether they were gloating or not. They were probably already annoyed with the two honey badgers. If there hadn't been a sandstorm outside, no one would have wanted to stay with the honey badger except for the three stupid camels.
After thinking about the consequences of giving in, the badger came to his senses and decided to use the old trick: strike first.
Although I had gained nothing but beatings from my "predecessors" at the beginning, I only knew that the honey badger was very vicious when fighting, either biting the nose or the ears, and shamelessly using biological weapons at any time.
But one thing is certain, apart from its bad mouth and excessive resistance to beatings, the honey badger's strength is really average. As long as it doesn't give the opponent a chance to counterattack, it still has a great chance of winning based on its own strength.
Having made up his mind, Wang Ping loosened his claws and threw all the dead branches in his arms to his side with a "rustle". While the other beast's attention was diverted, Wang Ping suddenly pounced forward and grabbed the other beast's hind legs.
Outside the cave, Han Da Xia finally managed to light a branch with the flickering flame of his lighter. He then used it to ignite other branches, creating a small fire.
When there was light, as soon as Gu Langgang looked into each other's eyes, they were both startled by each other's miserable appearance.
Gu Lao San was not only injured on his hands, his face was also covered with dried blood and sand. Han Da Xia was even worse, with blood from his nose, snot and tears all over his face, looking like a zombie at first glance.
Fortunately, they both saw each other's miserable appearance, not their own. Otherwise, with Gu Lao San's cowardly nature, he would have collapsed on the ground and groaned when he saw his face covered in blood.
Before the two of them could check each other's wounds, a roar suddenly came from deep in the cave, followed by a series of "bang bang bang" sounds.
"Oh no! It could be the boss!"
Gu Lang shouted, picked up a slightly longer branch, stood up and ran inside. Han Daxia tried to pull him but failed, so he hurriedly followed. But after walking a few steps, Gu Lao San in front suddenly stopped at the corner. Han Daxia didn't brake and bumped into his back, almost pushing him in.
Holding Gu Laosan who was staggering in front of him, Han Daxia looked forward in the light of the fire. His mouth opened wide in an instant and cold sweat broke out.
At the bottom of the cave, seeing two more outsiders coming with flames, the jackal and civet cat on the left stood up in an instant and growled threateningly at the two.
At the edge of the desert, there may be animals that don't recognize the flat-headed brother, but there are few that don't recognize the "two-legged beast". After all, many species that have disappeared here are caused by humans. Those who can stay may not be the strongest, but they must be the most discerning. In this shelter, animals can let down their guard against each other, but not against humans.
However, during the brief confrontation, the noise coming from the dark corner on the right soon attracted the attention of both parties again. The animals turned their eyes back faster than Gu Lang and Han Daxia, as if some excitement was more eye-catching than the threat from humans.
With the help of the firelight, when they got used to the darkness deep in the cave, Gu Lang and Han Daxia saw with their eyelids twitching that a badger was swinging an animal bigger than itself in its claws, smashing it to the ground left and right. The "bang bang" sound they heard came from this.
The two had been there for quite some time, and the other animals had noticed them, but the badger just ignored them and just kept hitting them, with no intention of stopping. What was even more ridiculous was that even under such a strong attack, the creature in the badger's claws was still roaring, as if it was very unconvinced.
"cough…"
Hero Han gently pulled Gu Lang's coat from behind, motioning him to go back.
The two men slowly retreated, trying not to alarm other animals, until they returned to the weak campfire and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Huh... I didn't expect this to be a natural animal shelter." Han Daxia shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Let's pay attention to the outside and leave when the wind and sand die down. If we wait until daybreak, I'm afraid it will be dangerous."
"Well, just a few wolves..."
Gu Lao San said it so calmly that Han Da Xia was stunned. If you didn't know him, you would think that he could handle it by himself. However, the second half of someone's sentence immediately exposed his lazy nature: "The boss alone... can beat the badger."
"It's better not to take risks. Jackals hold grudges very often, so don't let them target you. When the time comes, just ask the boss to bring the camel out."
Han Daxia reminded him, and then he and Gu Lang muttered in unison: "The thing that the boss caught looks so familiar..."
Hearing the other person say the same thing, the two looked up at each other and said in unison: "Do you think so too?"
"Heh!" Han Daxia waved his hands, shook his head and smiled: "Forget it, forget it, let's not be curious. Anyway, your boss has the upper hand! Come, let me see your injuries..."
At this moment, the "bang bang" sound coming from deep in the cave has not stopped, and even the frequency has not changed.
Wang Ping really didn't dare to stop for a moment, for fear that if he gave this guy a chance to breathe, he would be hit again.
However, as the fight went on, a feeling of relief suddenly surged in my heart, as if all the humiliation I had suffered from my own kind had been vented out, and my heartbeat became faster and faster. Gradually, the creature on the claws seemed to overlap with another figure.
"Damn it, I'll let you force me to move bricks!"
"I'll let you bite my nose!"
"I'll let you fart and stink me up!"
"You are crazy, you can be even crazier!"
The badger got more and more excited, and the strength of its claws unconsciously increased. All the animals in the cave felt inexplicably panicked, and their heartbeats inexplicably matched the rhythm of Wang Ping's beating. More and more fine sand began to fall from the top of their heads, and it seemed that the structure of the entire cave began to become unstable.
"roar…"
A few jackals were the first to lose their patience and let out low growls.
But at this moment, Wang Ping also felt that there was something stuck in his throat that he had to spit out. He slammed the creature in his claws, which had already lost its voice, to the ground, then clenched his claws into fists and raised his head to roar.
“Ah~~~!!”
A long and deep roar came from the cave, instantly drowning out other sounds. After the roar, the cave finally became quiet. In other words, the cave was quieter than before.
Some of the jackals had crouched down again, their heads facing the rock wall, their tails tucked behind their legs. The civet hid behind a rock pillar, wishing its head was buried in its stomach.
The camels stopped chewing the cud and lowered their heads. A fox was nowhere to be seen, and no one knew where it had gone.
"call…"
Wang Ping let out a long breath and sat down on the ground, his legs going weak. He glanced at the motionless fellow beside him and began to get excited.
"Brother won?"
