Chapter IX: Response

Wolves in their thirties are no more terrible than the Huns.

The current Zhou people are no longer slaves under the Huns. As slaves, they have already done their best to catch up with so many roads every day, and if it weren't for Ruan Bai's birth, there would definitely be a few more on the road.

Now they are well fed and clothed all the way, even if they consume a lot every day, but today they set up camp early, and half a day's rest is enough for them to recover.

But that's not all.

Time is limited, tools are limited, even if Ruan Bai and Chu Hao have a belly of intrigues and tricks, they are almost helpless against the wolves. And as the only two in this team that can be called combat effectiveness, one of them is full of injuries, and the other is so tired that he relies on mental support.

It's just that the two of them can pretend to be better than the other, and they are still very bluffing on the surface.

The bonfires lit around the camp, beeping, seemed to be the only sound in the night.

The wolves slowly approached the camp almost silently, and someone swallowed nervously, the sound of which was so abrupt in the silence that even he was startled. Someone panicked, and the arrow in his hand flew out directly.

Caught off guard, and the bow has not yet been fully opened, you can imagine how far this arrow can fly out.

Ruan Bai's voice sounded: "It's okay, don't be nervous!" ”

Chu Hao's voice then sounded: "Follow me to shoot arrows for a while, but don't shoot me!" ”

Sporadic laughter rang out, still difficult to hide the nervousness.

Chu Hao stood beside Ruan Bai and asked, "Follow me in a while." "Even after an afternoon of hard work, they weren't sure how much they would make. However, he was sure of running for his life, if he only brought a Ruan Bai with him.

Ruan Bai would never be at odds with his life, standing beside Chu Hao, bowing his head and wrapping his hand with the handle of the knife with a strip of cloth. Kill him with experience, kill wolves? Wolves are protected animals, okay! And for a long time, the wolf animal has been rumored to be amazing, Ruan Bai is really a little stunned in his heart, and he doesn't know if his arrangement is useful to the wolves.

"Whew-" The wolf's long howl represented the official start of the battle.

The wolves, which had already approached a considerable distance, dispersed almost instantly, and arrived in front of them in the blink of an eye. Against the backdrop of the bonfire, those eyes are like a ghost fire, which makes the back of the neck chill.

Chu Hao's voice sounded almost at the same time: "Zhang Gong, shoot!" ”

His voice was so powerful that people instinctively followed his words under the six gods. The wolves are scattered, and it is difficult to deal effective damage to arrows that cannot form a scale. Except for Chu Hao, who hit a wolf with an arrow, the rest were all missed, but Chu Hao's purpose was not to kill the wolf by relying on this kind of arrow that was not strong or accurate.

The periphery of the camp was full of pitfalls and trips.

Thanks to Ruan Bai, there is not much else in the luggage, and there are a lot of strong wool. Half a slap from the ground to a slap away, these rope webs made of wool are all over like spider silk. At that time, when it was arranged, some people said that it was wasteful. People who are used to living a hard life don't want to spoil good things, but everyone knows that they can waste good things so much so that they can live.

Under these "spider silks", there are all bowl-sized pits, and some of them have wooden thorns inserted in them.

In this arrangement, the role of the arrow only needs to be disruptive. Under high-speed running, whether it is falling into a horse trap or tripping over a horse rope, the only end is to break the leg. A wolf with a broken leg is not without a threat, but it is much less threatening.

In the centre of the camp, the women soothe the restless herd, which acts as a line of defense when necessary.

It is also because of these animals that the area of the camp is not small. It was just an afternoon arrangement, and the coverage of the trap was not large, otherwise Chu Hao and Ruan Bai would not be so worried.

The wolves were scattered, and soon the whimper of the wolves could be heard everywhere.

"One dead, five wounded." Ruan Bai whispered the count.

"Uh-huh-" The wolf's voice followed.

"Bow open, shoot!" Chu Hao pointed in one direction, and another wave of arrows.

"Two dead, seven wounded." Ruan Bai added up the numbers, and the results of this wave were obviously reduced a lot.

The bow and arrow could only be used for two rounds, and the wolves were already close at hand, and some wolves stopped to bite off the wool that had been specially thickened. Chu Hao shouted while stretching his bow and firing continuously: "Throw medicine, retreat!" ”

Ruan Bai smelled the smell of blood, glanced at Chu Hao, and said nothing.

The men did as they had done before, pulling up their scarves around their mouths and noses, and throwing medicine bags at the wolves or into the campfires. They all quickly avoided the upper wind, threw away their bows and arrows, and picked up their knives.

The pungent and sweet smell quickly spread, and the two wolves, who were quite close together, suddenly stumbled. Ruan Bai didn't give them time to adapt, and the results were swift with one sword. The knife pulled out of his neck, and he frowned.

The toxicity is not as strong and it is impossible to attack so quickly. The abnormal reaction of the two wolves just now can only be said that the animal's sense of smell is too strong, and it is stunned by the pungent smell without preparation.

Chu Hao's brows furrowed tighter than Ruan Bai, looking at Ruan Bai who had retreated to his side, while destroying the wolves, he reprimanded: "Follow me!" ”

"Save some strength." Ruan Bai didn't seem to appreciate it, but this time he didn't leave Chu Hao's side again. Chu Hao still looked at the arrows, but those who could directly shoot one horse with one arrow were the first few horses, and now the accuracy and strength of archery have decreased a lot.

A gray-white shadow pounced, Ruan Bai's pupils shrank, and he could barely catch the movement. The shadow seemed to pop out of nowhere, and he could only swing a knife with experience.

Slash the air.

"Whew-"

The beast's foul breath blew through his ears, and a pair of golden beast eyes stared at them as they landed.

Head wolf!

Ruan Bai suddenly thought of the modern controversy over the appearance of Erha and the wolf. He wanted to bring those who said that Erha looked the same as the wolf to take a look at the wolf and see if they dared to say it!

The head wolf did not give Nguyen Bai time to confront. It had not been long since the battle began, but the losses were greater than he had imagined. It's getting colder, and it's hard to find food now, and it's even more rare when it snows. If you can have this group of prey in front of you, this winter will obviously be much better.

In the face of the attack of the head wolf, Chu Hao saw Ruan Bai's skills head-on for the first time, and it was completely neat beyond imagination. The last time they dealt with the Huns together, there were too many distractions.

In addition to the knife in his hand, elbows, knees, hand slashes, kicks, any part of Ruan Bai's body seemed to be a weapon. Moreover, the parts that Ruan Bai was aiming for, the head, the back of the neck, the throat, the stomach, and the joints, were all places that could easily cause fatal injuries.

It was the first time that the head wolf had encountered such a difficult opponent, and he had to guard against Chu Hao's harassment.

In fact, Ruan Bai's fighting style was too dangerous, almost fighting with a wolf, not to mention Chu Hao's use of a bow and arrow, or a knife, he didn't dare to join the battle group lightly, it was too easy to be injured by mistake.

All he could do now was to attract some of the attention of the head wolf, and then give some help to the others.

Other wolves have engaged in contact with people in the vicinity of the herd.

The men brandished knives, and the women joined the warband. They couldn't draw their bows, they couldn't wield their knives, and they didn't know who came up with the idea of throwing stones.

I have to say that the dog jumped over the wall in a hurry...... Ahem, people are in a hurry to be able to realize their potential. The stone doesn't have much lethality, but it is flying all over the sky, and the distance is close, and the speed and strength are quite capable of bluffing.

When facing objects flying at high speed, whether it is a human or a wolf, they will subconsciously close their eyes or turn their heads to dodge.

This kind of harassment has given the men who wield knives a lot of opportunities.

The screams of men, the screams of women, the howls and screams of wolves mingled and spread far across the grasslands.

Ruan Bai and Chu Hao listened to it in their ears, and their eyes were red. It is impossible not to have casualties, they know. But......

Ruan Bai cursed and attacked sharply, and then he saw a black shadow flash in the corner of his eye, and subconsciously turned his head, and saw that the longbow that was originally held in Chu Hao's hand slammed into the back of the head wolf.

Syllable!

Ruan Bai seized the opportunity and slashed over, but he didn't expect that in this case, the head wolf would be able to dodge. The sharp tip of the knife only opened a hole in the side of the wolf.

The gray fur was soon stained red with oozing blood.

The head wolf had already retreated at this time, but neither Ruan Bai nor Chu Hao would let it go. The wolves hold a grudge, and if they do it again, they will definitely not have the strength to fight again.

But do they still have the strength now?

Ruan Bai was already a little out of strength, and the wounds on Chu Hao's body could be said to have collapsed as much as they could open. Others are even more precarious.

Chu Hao still pulled out his knife and flew towards the head wolf.

The head wolf couldn't advance or retreat, and couldn't help but arouse its ferocity, and its attack power was even better than before. Wounds soon appeared on Chu Hao's body.

Ruan Bai breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to go up to help, but he saw two wolves flying over one left and one right, and he could only intercept one of them with all his might......

"Get out of the way!"

The attack brought by three wolves is far from being comparable to that of one wolf. Ruan Bai almost watched Chu Hao dodge the attack of the first wolf, but his neck fell into the mouth of another wolf.

Click.

The sound of a slight bone breaking sounded, and Chu Hao fell to the ground.

"Ahem." He coughed twice.

Ruan Bai couldn't react at this time, looking at a golden lion that suddenly appeared, and bit off the wolf's neck.

I swiped the screen frantically in my mind: Lie in the groove, why are there lions on the grassland? He's dreaming and hasn't woken up yet, right? He's dreaming, isn't he?

Ruan Bai watched the lions bite the wolves to death one by one, and even the first wolf was not spared doom. Although he felt that the world was instantly magical, his body was still faster than his will, and he quickly ran to support the herd.

The lion looked at Chu Hao, and then at Ruan Bai, and the golden figure pounced on the wolves like a streamer.

"Wang!"

Ruan Bai stumbled and fell face to the ground. Why do lions bark at dogs?!
