Chapter 3: The White-Haired Wolf King

Li Wenyuan felt his hands tremble a little for the first time, the group of wolves in front of him was obviously led by a wolf, if he couldn't succeed in one blow, then the wolves would inevitably come to besiege him under the command of the head wolf, even if he was in a tree, but who could guarantee that this white-haired wolf king would not have a wheel battle to trap himself alive under the tree. If you travel back and go back to history, you will die in this deep mountain and old forest, which is not worth it.

It was a long story but a short story, and these thoughts were a blink of an eye in Li Wenyuan's mind, and after a little hesitation, he had already shot the bamboo arrow. However, as soon as the bamboo arrow left the string, Li Wenyuan regretted it, because the moment he let go, he saw the white-haired wolf king turn his head to look at him, and his eyes were full of disdain and ridicule. Then the wolf king swooped to the side, dodging a fatal arrow, and the bamboo arrow landed on the bear corpse, alarming several white wolves who were gnawing.

Li Wenyuan was also shocked when he saw that the white-haired wolf king dodged his arrow, but he had already come to a Jedi where there was no way to retreat, and if he climbed down from the tree at this time, he would definitely not be able to escape the hunt of the wolves in this snowy forest several feet deep. I had to put my heart sideways, and I didn't do anything, since it has been discovered, it is a situation where you live and die. I had to take out three bamboo arrows from the quiver beside me, two of them in my mouth, and the other one on the string, and I didn't think about it, aiming at a white wolf who was alarmed.

Obviously, the only wolf with that kind of keen perception was the wolf king, and the alarmed white wolf obviously did not notice the imminent danger, and the warm bear blood was still dripping down between its teeth, steaming hot. But before he could react to the sound of the wind breaking in the air, he had already been hit by an arrow in the eye, which pierced into his brain.

The wolf's blood burst out along the hollow tube of the bamboo arrow and poured on the other white wolf, and the silver-white wolf hair was dyed blood-red. The wolf was gnawing on the bear corpse, and was suddenly drenched in the blood of his companions, and his heart was also angry, and he angrily raised the wolf's head to see what was wrong, and then a bamboo arrow hit the wolf's neck, and the white-haired wolf staggered, struggled to stand up, and then fell down, just from the nostrils of the rapid white gas. Almost at the same time, another wolf not far away was also hit by an arrow and fell to the ground, and in an instant, all three white wolves were already dead. This rapid firing of three arrows is already the limit of Li Wenyuan's hard training in the past three years, and it can shorten the time of archery by half.

At this time, the white-haired wolf king saw that the three white wolves were hit by arrows and fell to the ground in an instant, and he was also furious, and the wolf howled and rushed to the tree where Li Wenyuan was hiding. When the rest of the white wolves heard the order of the head wolf, they also put down the bear corpse and rushed towards Li Wenyuan with the head wolf.

This situation did not surprise Li Wenyuan, the only unexpected thing was that the wolf was able to dodge the deadly arrow. However, there is no turning back from the bow, and since the matter has come to this, he must do his best to shoot these white wolves.

More than 20 bamboo arrows in the quiver were shot at the galloping white wolves in Li Wenyuan's hands like a series of beads and fast crossbows, the white wolves couldn't dodge and fell to the ground one after another, and there were twenty white wolves in a short distance of seventy or eighty steps, but there was still a breath in the excessive blood loss, but the blood was gushing out along the bamboo arrows, and it was not long to live, according to Orion's statement, the prey that was hit by this arrow should be killed as soon as possible, so as not to suffer too long and anger the mountain god. Not to mention that Li Wenyuan has never believed in ghosts and gods, even if he believes in ghosts and worships gods, Li Wenyuan has no time to care now, obediently, there are nearly ten giant wolves waiting under the tree.

The bow in his hand is not the bow he brought when he crossed, nor is it the first-class bow of the military system, but just an ordinary bow collected from Orion in order to enter the mountain. Now we can only hope for the traps that have been laid within ten steps of the surroundings.

Thinking of this, Li Wenyuan took a small iron pill from the tree hole in the trunk in front of him, this tree hole was originally used by squirrels to store winter nuts and other foods, what kind of squirrel is that? Li Wenyuan couldn't remember it clearly, it wasn't very delicious anyway, it was just delicious without the nuts it collected, maybe it was because he didn't bring condiments like salt? I don't know, anyway, there are important things now, and I don't have time to reflect on why the roast is so unpalatable.

Li Wenyuan knew that it was not time to fight the trapped beasts, and he still had the strength to fight, so he took out a slingshot from his arms, which was the most popular weapon among the people besides the bow that could kill from a distance. It's just that it's different from ordinary people's slingshots, unlike the ordinary kind of whole thick cow tendon as a tensile provider, but a few strands of fine cow tendon as a tensile provider, and it is not tied to the slingshot and then the leather pocket on the slingshot is changed from two eyes to four eyes, so that the projectile of the slingshot flies more stable, this is the most knowledge he knows as a hobby, such a slingshot is much stronger than the current slingshot of the Sui Dynasty. Li Wenyuan has personally tested this kind of slingshot, which can have about a bucket of force, and it is still possible to shoot through animal fur within ten steps.

Li Wenyuan held the slingshot in one hand, took the iron pellet with the other hand and aimed at a white-haired wolf, suddenly let go of the leather pocket on the slingshot, and a projectile shot out, hitting the hind legs of a white wolf, and the wolf that hit it wailed far away. The wolf only felt a pain in his hind legs, and before he could carefully examine the wound after escaping far away, he felt that his hind legs were tight, and the wolf was immediately suspended in the air, and before he could struggle, he was smashed out by a stake triggered by a trap, and fell to the ground, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.

Li Wenyuan smacked his tongue secretly, although this Orion's trap took time and energy, but it was so easy to use, and with just one blow, a vicious white-haired wolf was knocked away for more than 20 steps and fell there, life and death were uncertain. If only these wolves could step on the trap, Li Wenyuan whimsically opened his mind while looking for the next target.

However, it was obvious that the wolves under the tree were now almost fine, and only two or three of the dozen projectiles were hit, and most of the attacks missed, shooting on the snow. The remaining six white-haired wolves hid behind the surrounding trees without approaching the area where the trap had been planted.

This time it was a bit tricky, Li Wenyuan looked at the projectile that was less than half left, and stared at the white-haired wolf king, thinking in his mind about how to skin the wolf from the wolves and then retreat, when he suddenly heard a bad wind coming from behind him, his heart was not good, what is this. Thinking about things in his head, but it did not hinder the equestrian skills he had practiced over the years, and he hid in a stirrup as soon as he was short, and he looked at a snow-white figure flashing by, and his heart was cold, and he fixed his eyes to see if it was not a white wolf or something. When I turned my head, I found that several wolves had set up a wolf ladder at some point and climbed a branch a few meters above the ground.

No way! Li Wenyuan, who hadn't scolded anyone for three years, instinctively burst into a foul language, these white-haired wolves have all become fine, and will they work together to climb high? Was the behavior of the white-haired wolf king faintly appearing in the mountains and forests before to attract his attention and buy time for his companions to build a wolf ladder? No, I've heard that wolves and dogs can understand human nature, but this is a bit too exaggerated.

Without thinking about it, Li Wenyuan raised his hand and gave the white-haired wolf at the bottom a slingshot, but it was only a few steps away, and the iron projectile was submerged between the flesh and skin, blood splashed, and the wolf who hit screamed, but did not run away, trembling with his injured hind legs and continuing to hold the tree trunk, and the person stood to support the entire wolf ladder.

Li Wenyuan saw that the white-haired wolf that had pounced on the air before was about to climb back to the branch, and in a hurry, he shot out another projectile, ready to hit the other leg of the white-haired wolf at the bottom. At this time, a wolf pounced next to it to block the projectile, but it was not very lucky, and the projectile directly penetrated the space between the sternum, hitting its heart that was beating rapidly due to violent exercise, killing it on the spot.

Looking at another white-haired wolf corpse on the spot, Li Wenyuan did not have the slightest sense of joy, the wolf corpse blocked the other good leg of the wolf at the bottom, and the attack could not be said for the time being, the white-haired wolf that pounced on the air before finally climbed back to the branch under the sacrifice of his companions, baring his wolf teeth, and was preparing to pounce on himself again.

There were six white-haired wolves left just now, three were riding the wolf ladder, one was ready to pounce on him, one had just been killed on the spot, and there was a white-haired wolf king waiting around. Before Li Wenyuan could pull the slingshot again, the white-haired wolf on the tree pounced, and he simply dropped the slingshot knowing that he could not avoid it, pulled out the short dagger on his waist with one hand, and opened his other hand to hug the white-haired wolf who pounced. Dodged the bite of the wolf's mouth, and with the help of the white-haired wolf's pounce, he stabbed the entire short dagger into the wolf's belly, and swiped down hard to disembowel. But he couldn't hold the trunk of the tree anymore, and he was pounced on by this and fell down the tree and fell into the snow.

After landing on the ground, Li Wenyuan didn't care about the pain from falling all over his body, kicked the half-dead white-haired wolf away, and quickly retreated to the tree where he had avoided before. Leaning against the trunk of the tree, he felt relieved in his heart, he had not heard the legend of the wolf on his shoulder, and he knew that there was no way to deal with it, so he could only try to avoid it.

The white-haired wolf king howled again, and the remaining four white-haired wolves swarmed up and surrounded Li Wenyuan, roaring and looking for an opportunity, ready to pounce and bite him. Li Wenyuan confronted the wolves with a short dagger in one hand, but with the other hand, he took off the pocket around his waist that was bound by cow tendons and prepared to hold wolf skins. At this time, a white-haired wolf couldn't bear to pounce first, Li Wenyuan thrust the short dagger into the trunk of the hand, stretched open the mouth of the bag, and put it on the head of the white-haired wolf, and then loosened his hands, and the cow tendons naturally contracted and firmly set it on the white-haired wolf's head.

The white-haired wolf was covered by the pocket, and he was at a loss for a while, and he couldn't take it off with his front paws, and he didn't care about hurting people immediately, but he was anxiously arching around, and scratching desperately with his front paws, and accidentally touched another trap for a while, and plunged into the noose, and the triggered trap was pulled upward, and the rope was tightened around his neck, and the white-haired wolf whose limbs were off the ground was angry, whining and screaming for his companions to save him. But no one dared to save it without the order of the wolf king, and a white-haired wolf was just about to walk over to see it, when the white-haired wolf king bit the back of the neck and bit off a large piece of flesh.

Li Wenyuan was also shocked when he saw it, this beast is still like this to his own kind, if I fall into its hands, I am afraid that there will not even be bones left. His eyes were fixed on the wolf king, and he reached out to touch the short dagger that was inserted in the trunk of the tree just now, but he touched something furry, and when he looked down, he saw that the white-haired wolf whose leg had been broken before was biting the short dagger and preparing to pull it out and run away.

Li Wenyuan secretly scolded This has become a fine beast, and he knows how to avoid evil, and he actually knows how to go to the murder weapon in the hands of the prey first, but he is not idle in his hand, he reached out to pick out the eyes of the lame wolf, and the lame wolf shrank back in pain, just giving up the position of the hilt. Li Wenyuan took advantage of the situation to pull out a short dagger, and his eyes were stimulated by the severe pain brought by the attack, and he bit Li Wenyuan's arm with a sharp bite. Li Wenyuan stood unsteadily under the pain, and was once again thrown to the ground, and the short dagger in his hand stabbed into the chest of the lame wolf and stirred it hard, and blood suddenly gushed out of the lame wolf's mouth, drenching Li Wenyuan's face, but he did not have the slightest intention of relieving.

Li Wenyuan saw that the lame wolf's eyes were lifeless, but he still didn't let go, so he had to put the short dagger into the wolf's mouth, take advantage of everything, cut off the entire jawbone, pushed away the body of the lame wolf and was about to turn over again, but he felt that his shoulder was hit by the wolf's claws, and a fishy smell sprayed on the back of his neck, causing a cold sweat. Seeing that the other wolf was looking at him, his heart was also cold, it was over, he was taken by the wolf king.

The so-called wolf shoulder is a wolf hunting method of wolves, if a wolf from the front attack is unlikely to succeed, it will choose to attack from behind, because attacking from behind may not be able to knock people down at once or immediately fatal, so the wolf will put its forelimbs on people's shoulders first. The moment a person is suddenly taken on the shoulder, he will definitely look back to see what it is, and at the moment of looking back, the wolf immediately bites the person's throat and kills him with one blow.

Just when Li Wenyuan was in a dilemma, he suddenly heard two sounds of breaking the air, and the two wolves fell to the ground one after another.

At this time, a man dressed in a beard robe rode out of the forest and said, "Look at your dress as a Han family child?" ”

Li Wenyuan couldn't help but be curious when he saw that this person was dressed as a bearded man but spoke fluent Chinese: "Yes, thank you for saving my life, I have no other property, only these more than 20 white-haired wolf skins can repay this life-saving grace." ”

"I am Zhong Lishu, the leader of the Qiang people in Minshan, and I went into the mountains to hunt in autumn and winter to comfort my ancestors. Passing by here, I was very interested in seeing that you were alone and wanted to hunt down so many fierce white-haired wolves, so I came to the rescue just now. Hearing that person claiming to be Zhong Lishu, Li Wenyuan also laughed secretly in his heart, Zhai Changsun, Zhong Lishu, and then the capable ministers around Zong Luohu Xue Ju will be all together.

While sighing at fate in his heart, he clasped his hands into fists and said: "It turned out to be Brother Zhong, Mr. Jiuwen has unparalleled archery skills, and today I can see that it is indeed worthy of its reputation." ”

Thousands of clothes are not worn, and sure enough, Zhong Lishu was happy after hearing this, turned over and dismounted to peel the wolf skin with Li Wenyuan, and washed the blood stains on the wolf skin with snow nearby, and collected them one by one. Li Wenyuan's heart suddenly moved, and he asked Zhong Lishu, who was turning over: "Brother Zhong, I am a retainer of Captain Xue Ju in Jincheng, General Xue has always been a good friend of heroes, I wonder if Brother Zhong is willing to go to Jincheng with me to have a look?" ”

"Haha, I've heard of Xue Ju as a person, but I still have important things to do today, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it. In this way, after I got rid of this matter, I will definitely go to the house to visit, the green mountains will not change the green water for a long time, and we will have a period later. Without giving Li Wenyuan a chance to speak, as soon as his legs clamped the horse's belly, this humane BMW snorted and ran into the depths of the mountains and forests, disappearing.

Li Wenyuan looked at Zhong Lishu who was far away and shook his head with a smile, everyone can accept the younger brother when they cross over, why don't they have this charm, and they almost played to death for themselves today. Thinking wildly in his head, he took care of the wound, put the wolf skin bag behind his back, and followed the way he came down the mountain.
