Chapter 2: Autumn Hearts Fall Cold on a Cold Night
I don't know how many hours I dizzy, but when Fengying woke up, it was already a thin day, and the red glow was like blood. He looked around and couldn't help but be taken aback. I saw a few steps away, there was a burning corpse mountain, the fire was raging, devouring muscles and bones, most of those corpses had been burned into skeletons, and some were broken into ashes, the evening wind blew, the bone powder flew around, and the pile of burning skeletons looked particularly terrifying against the backdrop of the blood-colored sunset, so frightened that Feng Ying trembled, retreated backwards again and again, but suddenly bumped into something, and looked back, it was the black-clothed masked man standing behind him, and he couldn't help but be shocked again.
The man in black didn't look at him directly, but said lightly, "Let's go." So saying, he went to lead the horse. Feng Ying looked around, neither the dozen or so refugees who survived, nor his sister Yunjin, and then the pile of fire ashes, he couldn't help but feel confused at a young age. As if he didn't know anything about what was happening, he picked up the cowhide bag on the ground and was stunned.
Feng Ying was out of his mind, and the man in black had already brought two horses over. I don't know where the courage came from, when the man approached, Feng Ying suddenly looked up and asked, "What about my fellow villagers?" The man in black straightened his saddle and said lightly, "It's all there." Bong Ying was shocked: "You... You killed them? "The man in black didn't speak, which was a tacit. Bong Ying asked again, almost with a crying trill: "What about my sister?" He stared at the man in black, for fear that the man in black would say, "It's there too." Thinking like this, tears flowed involuntarily.
Although the black-clothed man originally spoke in a cold tone, he was not very happy or angry, and when he saw Feng Ying crying, he didn't know if he was disgusted with children crying, or for other reasons, he suddenly became angry and said sharply: "Don't cry!" Bear with me! Or I'll kill your sister right now!" Bong Ying was so frightened by him that she stopped crying and said in a trembling voice: "My sister is still alive?" The man in black snorted, which was considered a tacit, and said to him after finishing his saddle, "Let's go." ”
Feng Ying saw that the man in black was leading two black horses, and said in a low voice, "I don't know how to ride a horse." The man in black said coldly: "Who let you ride?" As he spoke, he stepped into the stirrup and got on the horse, pulled Bong Ying up with his low hand and placed it in the back saddle, then held the reins in his left hand and led the black horse with his right hand, and with a soft shout, he ran westward. All that remained was the karmic fire of the crematorium, crackling.
The man in black took Li Fengying all the way to the west, and went straight to the West Mountain of Riyin before dismounting and resting, and just after dismounting, he saw that the black horse he was riding before neighed and fell to the ground and died. It turned out that the black horse was not a good horse, and after a long day of traveling, he was already exhausted, and the robber was careless in maintenance, and he was not fully fed. Now he is dying of exhaustion.
The man in black snorted lightly, and didn't care about the fallen horses, just looked around to see if there were tigers and bears, and after looking at it for a long time, he felt that the surroundings were desolate and bleak, and he didn't even see a few places of grass and trees, so he put his mind at ease, found a boulder nearby, and placed Fengying down. He only told him, 'Don't move around.' So he took the horses, and said nothing to do, but went alone.
Bong Young was sitting on a boulder alone, the sun had completely receded at this time, and the wood and grass were scarce here, and the residual temperature on the ground had long since dissipated. As soon as the twilight breeze passed, it was a little cool, and it blew so hard that Bong Ying shuddered and curled up in a ball. After another moment, the night was full of stars. Bong Young looked up at the starry sky like lights, and got up in a daze, and was in a trance to forget what happened that afternoon, and only immersed himself in this watery night. When I was distracted, I suddenly heard a mournful cry in the sky, and I saw that it was a lonely big bird, flying and singing. The cry is sad and sad, and it is sad. Although Bong Young was young, she also knew what it meant, and couldn't help but think in her heart: "Why is this big bird so sad?" Could it be that its loved ones have also left it? "Thinking of his relatives being separated and alone, the little child suddenly had a sympathy for the big bird in his heart, and couldn't help but cry alone, and suddenly thought of the man in black who said that he would kill his sister when he saw him crying again, and he was so frightened that he stopped crying, and only looked at the big bird in the distance.
was distracted, and suddenly heard a low roar in the distance, and lowered his eyebrows to see a little fluorescence in the distance flickering and dimming. Feng Ying only thought it was a ghost fire, and couldn't help but be startled, and when she looked closely, it was actually a group of thick-tailed giant wolves.
Feng Ying shook in fright, a year ago the village had caught a wild wolf that broke into the village, although Feng Ying had been killed by the villagers when he saw it, but the fangs were forested, the eyes were as big as lights, and the appearance was still very terrifying, and the pigs, sheep, cows and mules in the village were bitten more than ten heads, which shows the ferocity of this wild wolf. I didn't expect to see so many in this wilderness now. That's how it can be good.
Just thinking about it, the wolves were already roaring and coming around, and Feng Ying was so frightened that he didn't dare to move, thinking in his heart: "I'm going to die, I'm going to die." But I saw that the wolves gradually went to the dead horses not far away, and soon heard the sound of biting, the wolves had more than 20 heads, and at this time there were still more than 10 dead horses and no place to go, and the more than 10 wild wolves roared again and again but were helpless, it turned out that the wolves were also like people, with clear hierarchies, and the prey was first enjoyed by the leader, followed by the young and strong, as for the wounded, old, sick and disabled, it was not easy to eat a little residual limb and internal organs.
I saw that more than a dozen wild wolves were hovering next to the wolves for a while, and seeing that the horse meat was running out and there was no hope of food, they slowly surrounded Fengying's side. Feng Ying thought he was out of danger, but he was besieged by wild wolves at this moment, although he was desperate, he refused to sit still, so he climbed up along the stone, which was originally two or three people high, and it was not easy to climb up in an instant. Fortunately, Bong Ying was originally a naughty boy, and it was natural to climb and climb high, and he had climbed to the top of the boulder in a moment. The more than ten wild wolves are old, weak, sick and disabled, with limited physical strength, and the wolf's claws are not as flexible as human hands and feet, how can they climb? I could only run back and forth around the boulder, screaming non-stop. The wilderness is quiet, and the sound spreads for thousands of miles, only to hear people are frightened.
The meat of the horse had already been eaten, and the wolves heard the howling and knew that there was another prey, so they threw down the bones of the horse and surrounded them together.
Feng Ying was so frightened that tears were about to flow out, but he still thought of what the man in black said, and he didn't dare to cry, seeing the wolves eager to try, his heart rose to his throat, and the bang kept banging, the wolf teeth and claws were sharp, and he was defenseless, but a wild wolf ran on the boulder, and he could not escape death. Thinking like this, a giant wolf saw Feng Ying's location, bowed his hind feet, and with a sudden, he jumped up several feet and pounced straight towards Feng Ying's place, and instantly pounced on the boulder, pressed Feng Ying under his paws, lowered his head and bit Feng Ying's throat.
Although Feng Ying was young, he was pressed down by the wild wolf and couldn't move, but the desire to survive still made him struggle desperately, his hands were pulled around, and he grabbed something in a hurry, and he didn't know what it was, so he couldn't help but say, and smashed it the head of the giant wolf, and with a 'bang', the giant wolf was knocked down to the boulder.
The giant wolf was shot down from the boulder, his cheeks ached, and he roared in a low voice, but he did not dare to jump on it again. Feng Ying still had palpitations after escaping death, looked down, and saw that the life-saving thing in his hand turned out to be the cowhide bag that held water before. Since his grandfather's death, he has been with him, and he was pounced on by a wild wolf, and the cowhide bag was shaken to the ground, and he was caught in his hands in a panic, and he accidentally saved his life. The cowhide is thick, and there is still a little water in it, and the whip will be on the wolf's cheek, and it will be as painful as a leather whip. Looking at the cowhide bag in his hand, he remembered that his grandfather was killed in front of him, his sister was missing, and he was not known where to take him, so it was better to die and be with his grandfather. After all, he was a child, and because his grandfather said that he would reunite with his relatives after death, he begged for death. Thinking like this, I didn't even want to hold the cowhide bag.
The wolves saw him let go, hesitated for a moment, and then rushed towards him in unison, Feng Ying was originally bent on death, but the wolves had already pounced in front of him in an instant, who could not change their faces? Bong Young couldn't help but subconsciously reach out and grab the cowhide bag. Where is the time?
At this critical moment, only to hear the sound of "whoosh", a black sword flew through the air, and with a pop of the two wild wolves that pounced in front of Feng Ying, nailed to the side, and several golden cones followed, nailing several wild wolves. When the wolves behind saw that the wolf had been killed, they panicked, jumping high and low, and roaring again and again.
Bong Ying once again escaped death, and when he was frightened, he had already held the cowhide bag tightly in his hand, no matter how strong a person's desire to seek death was, after walking on the edge of death, how many would they talk about life and death? He looked towards the flying sword, and sure enough, it was the man in black who was riding the horse and galloping in this direction. It turned out that the man in black saw that it was getting late and could not hurry, so he thought of staying overnight in the wilderness, and because he led the horse, he went to find some firewood and grass, and planned to roast the dead horse. The four places were desolate, and there was little firewood and grass, so they went a little farther away, and finally found some dry firewood, and just tied it up and strangled it on the side of the horse, and heard a wolf howl in the place when they came, and the secret word in his heart was not good. Hurriedly straddled the reins of Mahler and ran back. Only then did Bong Ying be rescued at the last moment.
The man in black rode his horse under the boulder, repelled the wolves, and turned to take the black sword down. Although the wolves retreated a little, they still refused to retreat, roaring around the two of them, eager to try, and a few bold ones had slowly forced forward, showing their fangs.
"I don't know what to live or die!" The man in black sneered, and with a wave of his right hand, several golden cones flew out of his sleeves, and several wild wolves fell to the ground in the blink of an eye. Seeing that so many companions had died in an instant, the wolves roared again and again, but they didn't dare to do anything, lingered for a while, and finally dispersed.
Seeing the wolves retreating, Feng Ying's hanging heart was finally put down, so he slowly climbed the stone and came down from the boulder, he was about to say thank you to the man in black, but his right cheek was cold and hot, and with a 'snap', it was the man in black who slapped him in the face with his backhand. The blow made his body tilt sharply, his head was dizzy, and he almost fell, but it was easy to stand firm.
