In the following days, Su Qijingli continued to recuperate from her injuries, and Zhang Jiabao was the logistics manager, washing and cooking, carrying water and chopping wood, and decocting medicine and boiling soup.

Jingli doesn't need his blood anymore, and her movements are getting sharper and sharper day by day, but there is a tightening pain when she turns her waist. The arms can also be bent slightly to pick up something lighter.

Zhang Jiabao spends a lot of time every day to familiarize himself with several of his weapons. The flying musket is much taller than him, and his spear skills are different from the stick method, so Wang Jibao taught him to practice a trick of the Ping Zha gun with his experience in using a spear.

And the task of the hunter brothers is to make sufficient preparations for the trip, such as curing hundreds of catties of smoked meat, and making a few boots out of soft vine, palm leaves and animal skins, among which the one for Su Qi Jingli to wear is still a special large one. Because you can't see your feet when you walk in a chariot, you can't do anything without protection for the soles of your feet.

Then he went to the forest and found a tree called the Bloody Throat and took a bamboo tube of its sap. This juice is highly toxic, and both humans and animals can suffocate to death quickly after touching the wound. It is best used on weapons.

More than ten days after the wound and stitches were removed, Su Qijingli almost recovered. The hunter brothers removed the wooden gate of the courtyard, sawed it into several pieces, and installed it on the top of the chariot and on the front, back, left, right, and right sides.

The height of the risers on all four sides is more than seven feet above the ground, which is a little higher than the height of the person plus the height of the bottom plate of the car from the ground, so that the person can stand on the floor without touching the roof.

The four sides of the riser have a foot-wide annular opening at chest height, reinforced by a dozen wooden sticks on each side of the opening, but not in front and behind.

This not only provides a view without blind spots, but also increases security, and allows them to attack from the front or behind.

The left and right sides of the riser are completely fixed, and only one side of the part below the opening of the front and rear riser is fixed, and the other side is equipped with a simple and firm wooden bar lock on the inside to facilitate entry and exit and escape. There is also an escape hatch in the middle of the roof that is slightly wider than shoulder.

The top plate and the risers on all sides are pasted with a layer of tung oil cloth corresponding to the holes in the wooden cone to prevent rain. The hunter brothers thought very well and took great pains to find the materials.

There's a lot of space in the car, enough for a lot of things, food, clothes, tools, weapons, no problem. When you go to bed at night, cover the standing hole with a wooden plank and you can lie down in the car.

Zhang Jiabao also used his spear to knock down the first-ripe fruits of the apricot trees at the courtyard gate, and packed a large basket, saying that their food should be meat and vegetarian matching. I don't know if he went to risk or travel.

When everything is ready, it's time for a test drive.

The standing hole in the middle was originally reserved for Zhang Jiabao, but if you think about it again, this position is the main attack position of the chariot array, which can easily attack the enemy in front or behind with long soldiers.

The hunter brothers had already known that Zhang Jiabao actually had no force, and it was a coincidence that he was able to kill the Wild Boar King. So Wang Jihu asked Wang Jibao to stand in the middle.

Wang Jihu stood in front of the left and was the commander of the chariot array, Zhang Jiabao stood in front of the right, and Su Qijingli, a conjoined person, stood behind him.

Stand still and lock the door. Everyone was embarrassed, huddled in the shell of the cart, which was neither a cart nor a cart, and was exposed below the knees, as if they were not wearing pants.

"Ahem. Wang Jihu coughed, "Listen to my command, put my hands on the handle of the angle board, I counted three times and started to walk at the same time, and the width of my steps remained at about one and a half feet." ”

"One, two, three, go!"

"Follow my pace, not too fast or too slow!"

Although the entire chariot items and the body of the vehicle add up to two or three thousand catties, everyone doesn't feel heavy when they push it. Except that someone slowed down at the beginning, and the hind leg was knocked by the edge of the standing hole, and the back was able to move synchronously.

Accelerating, turning, braking, reversing, it's no problem to try. Everyone is smart and quickly mastered.

Then he practiced a charging tactic, that is, to run quickly together, after the chariot reached a certain speed, Wang Jihu gave an order, and all of them shrank their feet into the car at the same time, and supported the weight of their bodies with their hands on the handle of the angle plate.

Zhang Jiabao thinks that this charge is the coolest way to play, and it is more interesting than riding a magic car.

"Alright, after tonight, let's go tomorrow. Wang Jihu said, feeling a little lonely. Where I grew up from small to large, I will leave tomorrow. It can't go back, and they don't know if it's going to come back.

Early the next morning, the people gathered in the courtyard. Some people are refreshed, some people don't sleep all night.

"I've got everything with me. Wang Jihu reminded everyone. He wrapped the three cannons in his arsenal in soft grass and cloth and put them in his chariot as well.

"Second brother, where is the dog?" asked Wang Jibao as he pointed to the black wolf dog that had been lying on the leather cushion.

"It's dying of old age anyway, so let it stay here. Wang Jihu frowned slightly, "Just leave some pieces of meat for it." ”

The dog has been with them for more than a decade, hunting with four brothers, experiencing earthquakes with their family, and witnessing the happiness of three generations of the family.

Wang Jibao's son loved it when he was alive. Since the death of the royal family, its temperament has changed, it has become dull, and it no longer hunts. Sometimes the hunter brother forgets to feed it, and it doesn't bark. It seems to look down on life and death, and the reason why it is alive is because someone remembers it.

Wang Jibao was reluctant after all, and this time he didn't listen to his brother and carried it to the car. Wang Jihu smiled, he naturally knew the third brother's temperament.

"Departure! Destination, eighty miles northeast, Biluo Town!"

Biluo Town is on the other side of Biluo Mountain, but you can't go straight to it, because the mountain road is rugged, and it is inconvenient for chariots to walk. To descend the mountain first, take the flat road to bypass.

At their pace, they could walk twenty miles in an hour. Walk faster and you'll be there in the evening. Zhang Jiabao will enjoy, pushing the handle of the horn plate with one hand, and nibbling on apricots with the other, and has eaten five or six along the way.

"How did you separate from Master?" Wang Jihu saw his boring appearance, so he began to find a topic.

"I am from the south and have been adopted by Master since I was a child. He brought me to England because of some things. Zhang Jiabao casually made up a reason, because it was too long and too bizarre to say, and others would not believe it when they heard it.

"Oh, no wonder it's a Southern accent. Wang Jihu smiled, "He must be very good to you, looking at your appearance, your previous life was not worrying about food and clothing." ”

Zhang Jiabao responded with a smirk, but thought in his heart: "Fart, I have only met him once, and I have hated him as a bad person for six years." ”

"If you can't find the eldest brother this time, the two of us brothers will go to the Infinite Sword Sect with you. I hope your master isn't trapped there. Wang Jihu said.

The two of them chatted with each other, and walked for a long time without seeing a beast, let alone a man-eating monster. Zhang Jiabao felt that the car was a little stuffy, and proposed that someone come out and push the car away. Wang Jihu said that the chariot array needed to be familiar with a lot, but he didn't agree.

So Zhang Jiabao proposed a novel way to play, that is, one foot on the bottom board, the other foot on the ground.

Everyone tried it and thought it was fun. The five feet that were exposed to the bottom of the car kicked on the ground, retracted, and the chariot slid forward a little. After slowing down, five more feet popped out, and with another kick, the car became faster again.

If you push a few times in a row, the chariot will go very fast, have the tendency to charge, and land on one foot with agility, unlike when you run and charge, you have to wait for the chariot to slow down before you can land on both feet. However, this movement is tiring to the knees, and after a while, you have to change to the other foot.

That night, we arrived in Biluo Town. Everyone went out of the car, and the black wolf dog followed. They probed cautiously with torches.

At that time, the town had a population of 20,000 and was famous as a distribution center for wild animal skins and medicinal herbs. Nowadays, on the street, there are only piles of rubble and rotten tiles, jagged broken walls, rotten beams lying horizontally, and the wooden shell can be pierced with a simple poke with your fingers; and the dusty half-section of the signboard on the ground, shaking off the floating ash on it, is a piece of the past of the market.

There seems to be a layer of pale red blood in the dark night, I don't know if it's an illusion or the psychological effect of everyone.

"No, why haven't you found human bones after searching for so long?" Su Qi frowned.

"Maybe they've all been eaten by man-eating monsters," Mr. Wang said, "and they don't farm or raise livestock, so they must be hungry for so many years." ”

Everyone looked for an hour, and they all searched Biluo Town, but they didn't find the eldest brother who succeeded the tiger and the leopard. It was eerily quiet, and there was no sound of birds.

"Look! There's light there!" Zhang Jiabao shouted, pointing to a half-collapsed house not far away, with a faint yellow light on the windows on the second floor and the shadow of a pair of hands.

Everyone's expressions were instantly solemn.

"Shhhhhhh Everyone walked quietly like thieves, not daring to make a sound.

"Second brother, I'm in front. When he arrived at the door of the house, Wang Jibao whispered. The red paper door god attached to the wooden door had turned white, and only the corner that drooped down remained. Wang Jibao slowly exerted force against the door with his spear, and the door was easily stabbed open.

On the opposite right, there is a narrow wooden staircase leading to the second floor, which is lit by a flickering light. On the left is a pile of masonry, and this half of the house has collapsed.

A gust of wind blew out of the house, making Zhang Jiabao shiver. He unconsciously hid behind Su Qi Jingli.

"Wait!Let the black wind be in front!" Wang Jihu pushed the black wolf dog up and led the way.

Several people walked on the wooden ladder, "crunching", as if the ladder would break at any moment. There was a light on the second floor, but there was no movement.

The black wolf dog was the first to go up to the second floor, and Wang Jibao was the second. Walking two steps forward at the corner of the staircase, Wang Jibao saw a woman's boudoir.

On a small round table lay lonely weeping red candles, the gauze tent of the carved sandalwood bed was opened on either side, and a woman in a red wedding dress sat on a dresser, her back to him, her hands on her ears, unaware of what to do.

"Wow, Wow!" the black wolf dog barked, whimpering and stepping back.

The woman turned around, and it was a fair-skinned melon seed face. There was nothing in her eye sockets, only two injections of blood flowed out, which became rouge on her lips. Her hand was removed from her ear, and under her earlobe was a wire hanging her eyeball!

Wang Jibao's hair exploded all over his body.

The woman seemed to be smiling all the time, her smile was stiff, and her exposed teeth were stained with blood. At this time, she faced Wang Jibao and wore her eyeball earrings on the other ear. His mouth didn't move, but he spoke.

"Is it pretty?"
