Chapter 165: Rescue
Chapter 165: Rescue
The situation is very urgent, at least in Cong Rui's opinion, they may be killed at any time...... Cong Rui really wanted to cry, she wanted to shed tears for her young grandmother.
Trekking all the way, going through many tribulations, it was easy to get closer to the second master, but now he was surrounded by wolves. Haven't your own girls suffered enough? Do you want to leave your life here?
Cong Rui's body trembled, and she didn't know whether she was frightened or frightened, but her young grandmother was very calm, that is, she didn't exclaim, and there was no cowardice on her face. "Young grandmother, the slave is afraid." Cong Rui said in a trembling voice.
Xie Ke shook Cong Rui's sweaty hand, and looked at the wooden door without blinking.
Although the wooden door is thick, it seems that it can't withstand such a strong scratch by the wolf's claws, and I can see that the wooden door has cracks...... Suddenly, with a wolf howl, and the next moment, with a few cracks, a wolf claw with a sharp blade actually broke through the door...... Lin Changyuan exclaimed, and Xiao Qingqian swung his sword to slash.
In a bloody color, the wolf's claws fell to the ground.
The wounded wolf seemed to wail and retreat, but the next moment another claw came through the bad hole.
And the speed was so fast that the claws didn't stop, but only scratched at the hole.
As soon as he grabbed and withdrew, Xiao Qingqian's long sword took a step slower, and only swept down a few gray* wolf hairs.
Then, the wolf saw the right moment and repeated the action again. Fortunately, this time, Xiao Qingqian was in a hurry, and another sword slashed the wolf's claws. It's just that the wolf before goes and the wolf comes after, and because the wooden door is broken with a hole, not only the wolf's howl sound is more realistic. From that cave, you can vaguely see a pair of green eyes, which is really scary.
Cong Rui's body trembled even more, as for Xie Ke.
Isn't she afraid?
No, she was very afraid, but she was afraid that what was the use, if she softened her hands and feet, not only would it be useless, but it would also become a burden, so she held on, and her eyes looked at the wooden door without blinking.
A pair of green eyes flashed. It seems that because of the smell of food, the wolves become more and more agitated.
And there was a faint smell of fishy sweetness wafting into the house.
Xie Ke's heart sank. At this time, Xie Ke was even glad that he chose to sleep in the village, although he didn't know why they didn't encounter wolves a few days ago, but there was only the word 'luck'. If you encounter it in the wilderness. Unsheltered. Will they not be reduced to the play of wolves?
Come on now. God also favors her.
Xiao Qingqian's act of injuring the wolf seemed to stimulate the wolves even more, perhaps it was the bloody aura that made the wolf's bestiality greater......
In short, there was a constant roar outside the door.
Another wolf seemed to poke its head in. Xiao Qingqian was swinging her sword to attack. A steady voice rose behind him.
"Attack with fire." The wolves became more and more restless, and although Xie Ke had no experience, he instinctively felt that the beasts should be afraid of fire. It is better to scare them off than to cut their claws, after all, if one is injured, the other will be quickly replaced. I don't know how many wolves there are outside the house.
Xiao Qingqian's eyes lit up.
It's really a matter of concern, he was stunned, and the outside is not a person, if it is a person, his sword is naturally very deterrent, but the outside is a wolf.
This thing is already full of anger, coupled with the stimulation of the smell of blood.
"It makes sense." In his busy schedule, Xiao Qingqian did not forget to echo, and then turned around and took out a small arm-thick firewood from the fire, and pressed it the half of the wolf's face that was forcibly squeezed in.
It was the same roar, but the sound was noticeably sharper.
The wolf was frightened again and again, wailing and retreating, after all, it is a wolf, even if it is smarter than cattle and horses, it is limited. After a few times like this, the broken door panel finally stopped coming out of the wolf's claws.
Listening to the sound, it seemed that the wolves outside the house also understood that they could not take advantage of it, and turned to besiege other houses.
Lin Qingqian wiped the cold sweat on her forehead, glanced at Lin Changyuan, and then looked at Xie Ke. In the small guard room, the girl and the maidservant sat next to each other, and Cong Rui, who was usually bold and sharp-mouthed, seemed to be seriously ill at this time, and his body was half leaning on Xie Ke, but Xie Ke's face was very calm.
In the firelight, except for the fact that it looked a little pale, I couldn't see anything strange next to it.
Little girl, she is not old, but her courage is not small, in the battle just now, he and Lin Changyuan were a little weak-legged, for fear that one would not be able to defend and would be broken in by the wolves. Xie Ke could still calmly remind him to attack with fire.
What an unexpected little girl.
"By dawn, the wolves may disperse, but that's it...... It looks like you can't mess around. I think there is no one in this village, and I am afraid it has something to do with this wolf pack...... Didn't you run away from the village? Lin Changyuan wrinkled his eyebrows and said. He and Xiao Qingqian were still guarding the door with a distance from left to right, in case the wolves played any cunning tricks.
"Run? Where can you escape? No matter how fast you go, can you have wolves as fast as you? Fortunately, we camped here last night, and if we didn't enter the village, I was afraid that we would feed the hungry wolves. "If a hundred or ten people encounter a pack of wolves in the wilderness, they will fight for their lives, and I am afraid it will be difficult to save their lives.
Fortunately, they covered up in a house and did not face the hungry wolf, you must know that the wolf is very fierce, even if it is a strong kung fu, it can't stand the siege of the wolves.
After listening to Xiao Qingqian's words, Lin Changyuan sighed.
Rather than encounter such a pack of wolves, he would rather encounter the rebels of the North.
Can you pretend to be a businessman, but a wolf? How to negotiate...... Is it possible to really use this village as a stronghold and fight with wolves every night?
But if you go on the road, it's hard to guarantee that the wolves won't follow and sneak attack, and wolves are actually very cunning......
Now they can say that there is no way to retreat, and there is no way to advance. Whether it is backward or forward, there are hungry wolves around, even if you are full of kung fu, you can't show it at this time.
Before entering the northern border, Lin Changyuan thought about many dangers.
When encountering enemies, blizzards, whether it is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, he has a way to deal with it in his heart, but he never thought that he would be remembered by the beast. Both of them fell silent, they both had some experience, and the general difficulties naturally did not bother them. Whether it is Lin Changyuan or Xiao Qingqian, they are not rich young masters who eat and wait for death all day long, if they fight with people, they may be able to come up with ten or eight methods, but fighting with beasts?
Xie Ke also pondered in silence.
In her previous life, let alone how to deal with wolves, she was a domestic dog, and she hadn't seen a few. Speaking of it, it is really impermanent, before she got married, she just thought that it was difficult to come up with the hanging flower door, and she had to ask her elders, even if she was allowed, she had to be cautious, for fear of being criticized, but after getting married, she didn't live at home for a few days, but was out all day.
That is, Qi Lu's temperament tolerated her, and she was careful.
It is possible to be abandoned by Hugh or abandoned.
It's just a matter of pretending to be crazy and stupid, and now even the wild wolves are coming to join in the fun...... She was really anxious, the anxiety in her heart couldn't be said to anyone, she always felt that Qi Lu seemed to be 'calling' her somewhere. She couldn't wait to give birth to a pair of wings, so she flew straight to Qi Zhen. Instead of wasting all her time on the road, now she wants to find him quickly, and I'm afraid she has more than enough power.
She knew she couldn't act rashly.
She is not only responsible for her own life, but also dozens of subordinates...... She can't afford to put dozens of lives at risk for her own selfish interests.
How long will it take?
Do you have to kill all the wolves before you can hit the road again?
Before Xie Ke could come up with a clue, there was suddenly another noise outside the house. Seeing that it would be dawn in one more hour, Lin Changyuan looked out from the broken door panel with a bitter face.
He looked at it silently for a long time. Finally, he looked back at Xie Ke with a heavy face......
"Young grandmother, it seems that there are living people, those wolves...... There was no trace of it. Lin Changyuan's voice fell, the door was knocked, and outside the door were their own people. Leader, Young Master Qing, someone has come to save us, according to them...... Every year at this time, they have to go to the mountains to avoid the beasts, saying that when this time comes, the jackals, tigers and leopards will come out to do evil. And there is a cave in the mountain, the entrance is on the cliff, you can hide from any tiger and leopard...... The subordinates told them that we were businessmen from Beichen Pass, and we were specially depreciating grain. ”
"Young grandmother, go down and take a look." Lin Changyuan finally said in a deep voice.
Then there was no need for Xie Ke to nod, he moved the cabinet away, opened the door a gap, and flashed out of the room.
Xiao Qingqian kept looking out of the cave, and gradually, the eastern sky revealed the glow, and she could finally see the figures walking outside the house.
"Orion dresses up...... Each person was on a leash with three or five dogs. The size of the dog is the same as last night's wolf cub. Apparently, they should have heard the movement and brought the vicious dog to check it. With these dogs by their side, even the wolves did not dare to act rashly, and we fought last night, and the wolves were finally defeated and defeated. Xiao Qingqian explained to Xie Ke by herself.
Xie Ke couldn't tell what was wrong.
After all, since entering the north, except for choosing the most difficult road, everything was arranged by Lin Changyuan.
All she can do is not become a burden to the team. At this time, after listening to Xiao Qingqian's words, I don't know whether to rest assured or worried. “…… It is said that in some places in the north in the middle of winter, wild beasts attack villages due to lack of food, and it seems that this is the place. If there had been a cave where the beasts could be avoided as they said, and the entrance was on a high place, the beasts could not set foot on it, but it would have saved a lot of casualties. You must know that last night was a wolf, and if the tiger and leopard came in a group, it would be more troublesome to deal with. Even if I am on guard every day, it is difficult to protect the beasts from hurting people, so I believe them a little. Sister Bao, you don't have to be so careful, most of the people in the north are still simple......
After all, there are still a minority. Besides, this place is in the middle of nowhere, maybe they don't know about the riots. So I think we can still trust them. At the very least, ask them how to move on. They dared to come to save us at night, so they naturally had something to rely on. If we don't find a way, we won't be able to continue this way. Xiao Qingqian's words really hit the nail on the head. [First update, I'll release my family Qi Er tonight......] (To be continued......)
