Chapter 469: What a monster

The little leader was holding a piece of cow bone and gnawing on it, and he didn't look up, but shouted, "Who the fuck? The door curtain is so big, do you want to freeze Lao Tzu to death?"

But the people around him were silent, staring blankly at the people who came in. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 The leader realized that something was wrong, and quickly let go of his mouth and put down the cow bones. raised his head, and at this look, he couldn't help but be startled, but it turned out that it was their leading general Xiao Gan who was standing at the door and glaring angrily.

"Xiao, General Xiao......"

"I made you look at the sled dogs, why didn't you listen?"

The leader laughed with him, wiped his oily shaking fingers on his clothes, and said with a smile: "The brothers are too cold, they have been staring outside, and they really can't stand it, so I came in and drank some soup to warm up." Let's go out and see the dogs. ”

Xiao Gan suddenly reached out and grabbed him by the collar, lifted him up and lifted him in the air, threw him directly out of the tent, fell on the snow, and roared: "It's late! Look at the good things you have done!"

As soon as he heard Xiao Gan's words, he suddenly lost his soul, quickly got up, and staggered from the gap in the sled car to look at the sled dog, which immediately made him stay on the spot like five thunderbolts.

The other soldiers in charge of guarding the sled dogs also hurriedly got out of the tent and ran outside, and when they looked around, they were also frightened. The piles of sled dogs were more than half empty, and the ground was covered in blood and severed limbs.

Because it was not far from getting dark, they hurriedly ran around the dogs to check, and finally determined that most of the sled dogs had been bitten to death and eaten by something, and only some stumps and dog heads were left on the ground, and the blood stained the snow-white ice field, which was being covered by snowflakes falling from the sky.

The rest of the sled dogs were stupidly huddled together on top of the snow, staring blankly ahead, as if nothing had happened around them.

When the soldiers rushed back in a panic to report the result to the leader, he knelt down in front of Xiao Gan with a frightened plop and said, "General, I'm ...... , it's none of my business, this, is this haunted?"

"Go to the underworld and ask the ghosts!" Xiao Gan pulled out the sword at his waist with a loud sigh, raised the sword in his hand, and cut off the head of the small leader and the big man, kicked it so hard that it flew into the darkness, leaving a trail of blood in the air.

Previously, after Xiao Gan had eaten, because he saw that the snowstorm outside was getting bigger and bigger, and there was no sign of abating, he sighed, and could only resign himself to fate, wait for the snowstorm to stop, and then make a decision.

His own soldiers laid a futon for him, and he lay down in the futon, and by the dim light, he leaned on a pillow and prepared to sleep for a while. Tell the soldiers to notify him as soon as the blizzard subsides.

He lay half-asleep in the bed, when suddenly he heard the sound of some animal chewing, and the sound was of bone-bearing flesh.

He woke up in an instant, the tent was quiet, he was alone in the tent, there was no one else, Commo and his soldiers slept in another tent. The lamp hanging from his head swayed with the wind and snow outside, and the lights in the tent flickered on and off.

He listened, but the sound he had heard before was gone.

He wondered if he had just had a dream, so he closed his eyes and went back to sleep.

And just as he was about to fall asleep, he was once again awakened by the sound of gnawing on flesh with bones.

He sat up, and when he awoke, the sound disappeared again.

Feeling that something was wrong, he lifted the quilt and got up, grabbed his own saber beside the bed, hung it on his waist, pressed the hilt of the sword with his hand, lifted the curtain, and walked out.

Outside, the blizzard was howling, and he craned his neck and circled around, not noticing anything unusual. You can't hear that sound in a blizzard. He was a little strange, even if there were people eating in other tents, the sound could not penetrate the terrible howling of the blizzard and reach his tent so clearly.

However, that voice was clearly in his ears, and it appeared twice, so it was definitely not a mistake. He couldn't find a reason in the barracks surrounded by sleighs, so he decided to go out and have a look.

This glance saw a mess above the ice field. The sled dogs died countless times, stumps and severed heads were sprinkled everywhere, and the blood was shocking. Stunned, he quickly drew his sword and quickly ran around the sled dog, but found no trace of the enemy, nor of the beast. He found that most of the sled dogs were dead, and he didn't know what had been bitten to death.

Xiao Gan was so angry that he was going crazy, these sled dogs were an important basis for them to destroy the enemy on the ice field, just like the war horses on the grassland, if there were no sled dogs, how could his army move quickly, and how could he chase down those treasure hunters who rode sled dogs?

So in a fit of rage, he cut off the head of the little leader who was in charge of the sled dogs. Although the derelict petty leader was executed, the loss of the sled dog could not be recovered.

He was in a hurry, because after the news of the treasure hunt spread, sled dogs became a sought-after thing. In particular, the sled dogs of the Langgai tribe in the area of the ice fields have almost all been bought. If you want to buy it, you can only buy it by going deep into the hinterland and thousands of miles. It's several days away from land, and it takes at least a month to get a supplement from the sled dogs. This month, I don't know how many treasure hunters can calmly walk through the area he is responsible for to go treasure hunting, which invisibly increases the burden that Queen Xiao Yanyan has to deal with. When the time comes, he can't afford to blame it.

Although his father was the prime minister, his father disciplined them very strictly, and at the same time, the emperor was seriously ill, and the queen made decisions on major matters in the court, and the queen Xiao Yanyan rewarded and punished them, and did not rub sand in her eyes, and did not ask about the process, as long as the result. Faced with such a situation, even his father couldn't defend him. The thought of this made him shudder.

How to complete the task later, he thought about it, and could only use the remaining half of the sled dogs to form a capable ranger, put on the clothes of the people, put the cordon on the ice field, and quickly move on the ice, and after discovering the enemy's traces, he mobilized troops to encircle and suppress.

Although this is definitely not as effective as his previous deployment, there is no way to do it now, but he can only make amends.

He ordered all the remaining sled dogs to be gathered, and ordered the soldiers to keep a strict guard, and they could take turns to return to the tent to keep warm, but there must be enough people to patrol outside to form a protective ring to protect the last few sled dogs.

Seeing that the little leader was beheaded by the general's sword, the soldiers would rather freeze to death on the snow than disobey the military order, and they all opened their eyes wide, holding their blades around the edge of the sled dogs, forming a cordon and surrounding the remaining sled dogs.

Xiao Gan originally wanted to send soldiers to search around to see what kind of monster was stealing their sled dogs. It's possible that it will be hunted down. But he immediately dispelled this thought, this thing was extremely powerful, no matter what it was. Being able to eat hundreds of sled dogs silently without making other sled dogs scream makes people's scalps tingle just to think about.

What would happen if he could eat hundreds of dogs in a very short period of time and meet the search team he had sent out? That would be tantamount to a sheep falling into the mouth of a tiger and giving the lives of these patrol soldiers in vain. And now, the blizzard is so raging that it is impossible to see things more than a dozen steps away, and they sent out to search for nothing. It's better to keep a close guard, be careful and vigilant, and get through the snowstorm first.

But the blizzard did not seem to stop at all, and although it waited for a few more hours, it was still a raging wind, and it was already the next morning, and of course, on the ice field of the polar night, day was no different from night, especially in a blizzard. Xiao Gan was very anxious, he had already gotten up and dressed up, sat on the bed, stared at the hourglass, and there was really nothing he could do in the face of this terrible snowstorm.

Suddenly, his attendants staggered into the tent, their faces pale with fright, and they looked like ghosts in the light. The palms of his hands were dripping with blood, and the blood was still dripping down.

Xiao Gan was taken aback, grabbed the saber next to him, and asked urgently, "What's the matter?"

"No, general, our brothers, all dead! Go check it out!"

Xiao Gan's heart suddenly sank, could it be that the monster that ate those sled dogs had shifted his target and turned the direction to his soldiers?

The soldiers he brought were all elite soldiers from a hundred, and the two armies faced each other, and it was not a problem to treat one as ten, but now, they died quietly on the ice field, and he didn't even hear a single scream.

Xiao Gan immediately grabbed his saber and rushed out of the tent.

In the improvised barracks surrounded by sled dogs, tents still stood in place without any mess. There was no blood to be seen in the snow on the ground.

He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and turned his head to look at the soldier.

The soldiers wept and said, "In the tent! They are all dead in the tent! I got up just now and went to the tent to find one of my companions." As a result, when I entered the tent, I fell, and the ground was covered in blood, and my hands were covered in blood. When I got up, I saw that there was no one in the tent, only a stump and a severed arm. They must all be dead. I was terrified, climbed out, and went to the other tents to look, and it was the same. I hurried to report to the general. ”

Xiao Gan didn't wait for him to finish, he had already walked quickly to a nearby tent, opened the curtain and looked inside, and could roughly see the situation in the tent through the reflection of the snow. Sure enough, the ground was covered in blood and severed limbs, and none of the bodies were intact, and the sight was truly shocking.

He immediately went to another tent and found the same scene inside.

When he hurried to the third tent. He found that in addition to blood and severed limbs and severed arms, there were actually two soldiers sleeping in the tent. Even the snoring could be heard, and he quickly stepped forward to shake the two of them awake.

When the two woke up, they smelled a strong smell of blood and were startled. When he turned his head to look, he saw that the other companions in the tent had turned into stumps, severed arms and blood on the ground, and he screamed in fright.

Xiao Gan's heart was cold when he heard the two of them react like this, and from this point it can be inferred that they must have no idea what happened last night.

Sure enough, under Xiao Gan's inquiry, the two only said that after they fell asleep the night before, they slept until now, and they didn't hear any movement and were not awakened.
