When the old man saw them tense up like they were facing a formidable enemy, he couldn't help but shout: "Sit down! What are you so nervous about? That sound is very far from here."
After he said this, everyone sat down awkwardly. However, no one was at ease. Instead, everyone was listening vigilantly as to whether the wolf was approaching them.
As the night deepened, they gradually fell asleep due to their mental and physical exhaustion. In the middle of the night, when they were deep in their slumber, one of the men on guard screamed suddenly and fell down.
"Ah!"
That scream woke everyone up and they jumped up suddenly and asked: "What happened?"
"Hiss hiss!"
However, it wasn't the voice of their own clansmen who answered their question, but the hissing sounds of snakes spitting their tongues out in the dark night. The chaotic sounds of the snakes didn't sound like they were very far away, and there seemed to be more than one or two snakes.
