Chapter 252: Return to Liangzhou
The voice was too high-pitched, and it was particularly harsh in this silent and empty valley.
At least, half of the people in the venue who fell asleep woke up.
"What's wrong?" the man who woke up quickly got up, looking for the source of the sound.
Immediately after, I don't know who, I exclaimed first, "It's a wild wolf." ”
Stirring began to appear in the crowd.
One more person woke up.
Chenfeng also woke up, opened his eyes, first looked at Zheng Sui, saw Zheng Sui sitting on the ground, as if he had no strength, hurriedly got up and walked to Zheng Sui's side, and helped Zheng Sui, "What's wrong?" Following Zheng Sui's finger, in the open space not far from them, there was a big gray and black dog, said to be a big dog, it was a big dog, it was much taller than the dog she usually saw.
At this moment, he was staring at them with burning eyes.
In the commotionous crowd, the word wolf came from time to time, and Chenfeng's face was also white, holding Zheng Sui's hand, which suddenly tightened a lot.
However, compared to the fear of Zheng Sui and Chenfeng, the others seemed much calmer and more calm, and some of the bonfires that were gradually extinguishing began to add firewood to make them burn again.
The empty valley was lit up again.
Yet, the wolf was still staring at them, his eyes glowing with a devouring light under the blazing campfire.
"Why don't you leave...... Chenfeng was beside Zheng Sui, his mouth kept murmuring, and suddenly, Chenfeng didn't know where he got the courage, picked up the dead branch next to him, and was about to throw it in the direction where the wild wolf was, wanting to beat the wild wolf away.
As soon as I lifted it, I heard someone shout no.
It's Dong On's voice. Dong Weng took the torch and hurriedly walked over.
Morrowind's hand slammed, and the dead branches fell.
"Don't hit it. As long as we don't attack it, it won't attack us. Dong Weng squatted down next to Zheng Sui's bonfire, and added a few dead branches to the bonfire to make the bonfire burn more vigorously, "Don't be afraid, wolves are afraid of fire." ”
The morning breeze responded, and Zheng Sui couldn't stop trembling. But he kept staring at the eyes of the wild wolf in a daze, and he didn't dare to flash it, as if it flashed. The wolf would pounce on her.
And so, a long time passed.
Man and wolf have been facing each other for a long time, and the people in the valley have already woken up. But no one dared to sleep again. There was a crackling sound of wet wood burning.
Suddenly, the wolf howled and turned away.
Everyone in the valley breathed a sigh of relief, and all the torches in their hands were extinguished, and they rested again by the campfire.
It's just a scene that makes everyone present nervous and excited, at this moment. Hardly anyone could sleep at the sound of talking in the valley. The noise and noise were all in one place, half telling stories about wolves, half telling meat stories.
"The two of you were terrified. Dong Weng didn't leave immediately, and was still sitting by the bonfire where Zheng Sui and the others were.
Morrowind nodded busily, "If you hadn't said it was a wild wolf, I would have thought it was a big dog." ”
Big dogs?
When Dong Weng heard this, he only felt that he couldn't cry or laugh, and shook his head and said: "This should be a young wolf, it has not fully grown up, and it is acting alone, so it is only so that the fire light is driven away, if you run into a wolf, it will not be so easy." ”
"Did Ah Weng meet the wolf?" Zheng Sui, who came back to his soul, his eyes were full of palpitations.
Dong Weng nodded, "I met once twenty years ago, and that time I met a pack of wolves, including the first wolf, a total of seven, that time we also wanted to use torches to drive away, but those wolves were more and more crowded, and later, one of our team had good archery skills, so he shot the head wolf to death with a bow and arrow, and the wolves dispersed." ”
Speaking of this, he paused again and persuaded: "Don't be afraid, the wild wolf has already left, and it won't come again, speaking of which, this valley, back and forth, the old man has walked more than a hundred times, or the first time he has encountered a wild wolf, let you catch up." ”
Zheng Sui wanted to laugh, but she felt that her face was very stiff and she couldn't laugh, so she was frightened, "In this mountain, besides wolves, what other beasts are there?"
Dong Weng smiled, "There are many beasts, but they are afraid of fire. ”
That's it.
No wonder the wild wolf just now, standing seven or eight steps away from their bonfire, stopped, and did not come forward, because it was because of the fire.
"Let's rest. Dong Weng got up, but suddenly his expression froze, his movements were extremely neat and lying on the ground, sideways, one ear was close to the ground, the look on his face suddenly became solemn, his brows were wrinkled, it can be said that when the wild wolf appeared, Dong Weng's expression was not nervous like this.
After a moment, he got up, spit, rubbed, and opened his mouth to scold, "Damn, it seems that I really didn't have a good night's sleep tonight." ”
"Uncle Dong, what's wrong, what's wrong?"
"yes, Aweng, what's wrong?
……
Over there, the crowd of loud night talkers, someone asked loudly.
Zheng Sui's face was full of doubts, and he wanted to ask, but he just looked at Dong Weng's behavior and opened his eyes, which was really unacceptable.
Usually, this Dong Weng is much more restrained in front of them.
"Lao Tzu heard the sound of horses' hooves, and it came from the west, as if it were coming from the east. ”
The gossiping crowd was silent for an instant, looking at Dong Weng one by one, their faces were full of surprise, and only the sound of the night wind passed through.
One of them got up, took a few steps forward, and said with a smile: "Everyone knows that Uncle has a pair of sensitive ears, how can he not even hear the sound of horses' hooves coming from the west or from the east, but I am afraid that it is far away from here, one in Xinzheng City, and the other in Liangzhou City." ”
"Lao Youzi, if you don't believe it, you can listen to it yourself, Lao Tzu estimates that there are two groups of people, this one from the east is only within ten kilometers from us, and as for the west one, there are about twenty kilometers. ”
The middle-aged man who stood up, that is, the old oil man in Dong Weng's mouth, hurriedly bent down, his ears pressed to the ground.
The people in the valley held their breath and waited for the results.
After a while, the old oilman jumped up, "Damn, there are really two teams of people coming here." ”
As soon as the words fell, there was an urgent inquiry in the audience. "So what do we do?"
When I heard the voice, they were all young students, and most of them had little experience when they went out.
"Do not be alarmed. Maybe it wasn't for us, but the officers and soldiers were passing by," Dong Weng said with a heavy look on his face, but he still arranged in an orderly manner, "Let's hide the goods in the woods first, and then put out the bonfire, leaving one person to control the wind." The rest of the people hid in the woods. ”
In the end, it was the team leader, and everyone began to act at the sound of an order.
Afterwards. Dong Weng turned his head to Zheng Sui and Chenfeng and ordered, "You can just hide in the middle of everyone with everyone later." ”
Zheng Sui nodded, and Chenfeng hurriedly responded. Dong Wong turned and stepped forward to help.
These people are used to doing things. At the same time, the goods were their net worth and property, and they valued the goods, and it took almost less than a quarter of an hour to hide all the goods in the woods, and the bonfires were extinguished one by one, and Zheng Sui and Chenfeng walked towards the woods with the crowd.
When a qiē has just stopped, you don't need to stick to the ground to hear the sound of horses' hooves.
Getting closer.
The horse ran very fast.
I thought I was passing through the valley. Will gallop away, don't want to. When they reached the valley, they stopped, and there were about a hundred people.
Immediately after, there was a thud, like the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.
"This is the place. The voice was eager, with a slight gasp.
One after another people dismounted, torches were lit, and the valley began to light up.
"There's only a group of people here, and this campfire is still hot, so it shouldn't go far. ”
"Search. ”
The voice is loud and clear, extremely familiar.
Zheng Sui's heart trembled when he heard this, he was a little excited, a little hesitant, and his hands were clenched into fists.
Do you want to go out.
At this moment of hesitation, suddenly an exclamation came from the side, "Wild wolves, wild wolf packs, there are seven ...... in total."
The broken throat is still in the stage of voice change.
It's just that this sound has exposed them, some are staring at the wolves behind them, some are looking at the torches that are gradually getting closer to focus, and there are officers and soldiers with torches.
"All the people in the woods came out for me. It was still a loud and clear shout.
Zheng Sui squeezed out of the crowd, she was already sure that Huan Yu appeared here at this time, he came to find her, shouted Ah Ping, and ran to the bottom of the mountain.
There were more than 100 torches in the field, and the whole valley was as bright as day.
Even, when she walked out of the forest and ran down, she could see the expression on Huan Yu's face clearly.
His face was full of horror, and his eyes were full of extreme panic.
The sound of gasping around him, one after another, brushed in his ears.
Before Zheng Sui had time to sort out these, Huan Yu's whole person was like an arrow off the string, and he rushed to her and took her whole person into his arms.
The hand rises and the knife falls.
A fierce beast howl came to an abrupt halt, and the smell of blood came to your nose.
There were cheers in the valley, and the valley was shattered, all of which were sent out by more than 100 soldiers brought by Huan Yu.
Zheng Sui wanted to turn back, but Huan Yu broke his head and stopped, "Don't look back." The hand holding Zheng Sui's shoulder did not let go, turned his head, and walked back with Zheng Sui.
"Let's go back to Liangzhou City first. Huan Yu led the horse and turned his head.
As soon as he heard this, Zheng Sui hurriedly broke away, "I'm not going back to Liangzhou City, I'm going to Xinzheng." ”
"Nonsense," Huan Yu shouted, only to feel a headache, the extreme worry of the past few days, and the thrill of the head wolf rushing towards Zheng Sui, made his temper soar, and he couldn't suppress it, "Or you plan to feed the wolf here." ”
Zheng Sui trembled, bit his lip tightly, lowered his head, and did not speak.
When Huan Yu saw this, his heart softened, and he turned his head and instructed Huan Qin next to him, "Bring another person with you, we are ready to go back, and all these Shangsaka will be escorted back to Liangzhou City." ”
Huan Qin responded.
Huan Yu led the horse with one hand and Zheng Sui with the other and walked back, "You go back to Liangzhou City with me first, I promise you that I will take you to Xinzheng, okay?"
Here, Zheng Sui hasn't squeaked yet.
Over there, suddenly a sound of horses' hooves came from the west, from far and near, and soon arrived in front of him, first there was a burst of laughter, and then he stopped for a long time, "What? General Huan beheaded a certain domesticated wolf, and he wanted to leave in a hurry." ”
Zheng Sui looked back, only to see a red horse, sitting a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, the horse stopped, leaned forward, but it was a tiger's back, a bee's eye jackal. (To be continued......)
