Chapter 126: The Wolf King

More than thirty horsemen bypassed the fire, crossed the trench directly, and after a few moments rushed up the hill.

As soon as they got up the hills, Zhang Yunwen and everyone were suddenly surprised. I saw that the leading knight was a slender woman with a beautiful face.

When the woman went up the mountain, she saw more than 20 people with horizontal knives standing in two rows, looking at her vigilantly.

"Hey, who are you?" The woman sat on her horse, her scimitar reflecting the fire around her.

This woman's Chinese is indeed much more standard, and there is a little Henan dialect mixed in, maybe the person who taught him Chinese is really from Henan.

"We are merchants of Datang, who are you?" Zhang Yunwen replied. The horizontal knife in his hand was pinched even tighter.

The woman looked at the bulging bags, the upside-down iron pots, and the bundles of rawhides on the horses behind them, and made sure that they were indeed caravanserais. But when he saw the horizontal knives in their hands, he couldn't help but ask strangely, "Hey, you merchants can also carry this kind of horizontal knives?" ”

Zhang Yunwen said: "In the Central Plains, you can buy anything, as long as you have silver!" ”

The woman was puzzled, furrowed a pair of beautiful eyebrows, and asked, "But, judging by the appearance of you, you look more like soldiers than merchants!" ”

Zhang Yunwen found out that the woman's eyebrows were slender, almost flying obliquely into the sideburns, and he couldn't help but think of a poem: "Long eyebrows enter the sideburns." ”

"Han people, what are you looking at!" Suddenly, I heard an angry voice, but it was I staring at the woman's eyebrows, which made the woman displeased.

Zhang Yunwen hurriedly coughed lightly twice to cover up the past: "Actually, we used to be bandits, but then the Central Plains settled down, and there was no future for being a bandit, so we changed to businessmen!" Hearing Zhang Yunwen's nonsense, the soldier next to him suddenly smiled.

"Oh!" When the woman heard this, she believed it in her heart.

Zhang Yunwen continued: "We brought salt, tea and our friendship to the Xi people, and we want the friends of the He Xi people to do business. I wonder if the girl is from the Xi tribe? ”

The woman smiled, revealing her braided teeth. I only heard her say proudly: "Yes, we are the humiliation master of the Xi clan." A hundred miles to the north, we will be in camp! You can go there and do business! ”

Qi Jin is the title of the leader of the Xi tribe.

"Thank you, girl!" Zhang Yunwen saluted and said to the woman, "I saw you chasing and killing wolves just now, and I heard that wolves are the totems of the Turks, so I'm afraid it's not good for you to chase and kill like this!" ”

The woman pouted and was about to speak, when a man next to her hurriedly tugged at her sleeve. The woman stopped suddenly, and then looked at Zhang Yunwen angrily: "Abba often says that Han people are cunning, it seems that Abba is right!" Are you trying to get a talk from me? ”

Of course, Zhang Yunwen would not admit it so stupidly, and immediately shook his head: "No! We're businessmen, no matter what. If so, can you sell us the wolf skins? ”

Hearing Zhang Yunwen's request, those Xi knights immediately relaxed, and they were indeed businessmen. The woman laughed even more: "Hehe, you Han people are really greedy!" Well, you want these wolf skins, and that's what you can get in exchange. But! At this, the woman paused, "You also want to help us hunt down the wolves!" ”

Hearing this request, Zhang Yunwen couldn't help but pause, and only replied after a while: "Okay! But what about my goods? ”

The woman said, "I just want you to go, and I don't want you to go all, of course you are going to my Abba's tribe!" Well, I'll send someone to escort you there! ”

Zhang Yunwen suddenly noticed that the woman used "Abba's tribe" when she spoke, and said "send someone to escort", which shows that this woman's Abba must be the best in the tribe, of course, this woman is the princess who insulted the master.

"Okay!" Zhang Yunwen said, "But I'm going to take two people with me, they're archers!" ”

When they heard the word "sharpshooter", the eyes of the Xi people suddenly lit up.

"Really a sharpshooter?" The woman asked excitedly, "Can they shoot a sheep two hundred paces away in the eye?" ”

Zhang Yunwen suddenly turned his head to look at Ma Wangshan and Wu Peng. I saw that the two of them wiped the beads of sweat on their foreheads at the same time, and then said, "Well, it's a little difficult!" ”

The woman suddenly lost interest in the two, and continued to say to Zhang Yunwen: "It seems that you are not very old, but you are their leader, you can follow me to chase the wolves!" ”

After speaking, some Xi people slowly approached Zhang Yunwen and the others, faintly surrounding them.

Everyone suddenly became nervous. Seeing this, Zhang Yunwen hurriedly said: "Let's go here!" But this girl, you're going to send our goods to the tribe! ”

The woman nodded, then turned around and walked slowly south. After taking two steps, I saw Zhang Yunwen turn over and get on the horse and follow, so he gradually let go of his horsepower and galloped.

Zhang Yunwen chased after him for a while, and soon walked side by side with the woman.

The woman showed a sweet smile to Zhang Yunwen, but in the dark night, Zhang Yunwen didn't see it.

He followed the bloodstains and horseshoe prints all the way south for almost the whole night. Of course, Zhang Yunwen, who was already very tired, actually dozed off on the galloping horse like this, his eyes slightly closed, and his mind was blank. Then, after a while, I was woken up by a cool breeze, and then I fell asleep again.

Finally, when the sky was slightly bright, everyone caught up with the large army. At the same time, the wolves were running away.

At this time, there were less than a hundred wolves in the wolf pack, and a tall green-backed wolf galloped at the front, turning his head from time to time and looking at the pursuers behind him.

Zhang Yunwen drew his bow and arrows, aimed at the wolves in front of him on the back of the galloping and bumpy horse, and then released it. I felt the trembling of the bowstring almost numb my fingers.

And a wolf in front of him was suddenly hit by an arrow and fell to the ground, and his body was still rolling forward due to inertia, rolling three or four feet away, and finally fell to the ground.

"Hee-hee, how's it going, how does it feel to have a strong bow on horseback?" A woman's voice came from beside her.

Zhang Yunwen suddenly understood that it was better to use a light bow on horseback, rather than this kind of three-stone hard bow.

The woman said, "We have been chasing and killing for a day, and we have shot all the arrows, otherwise you will divide some arrows and use them!" The woman stared at a pot of arrows on Zhang Yunwen's back.

Zhang Yunwen immediately took out a handful and handed it to the woman: "Save a little, it's not much!" ”

The woman took the arrow, picked up a small red lacquered bow, and shot it with an arrow. Her archery skills are good, and she can hit seven or eight out of ten arrows. Moreover, those arrows stuck in the ground will be picked up by the Xi knights when they pass by, and then the Xi people will use the arrows to shoot at the wolves. As for the arrows stuck in the wolf, no one dared to pick them up. No one knows if the wolf will make a dying struggle and bite back before he dies.

Finally, with the addition of Zhang Yunwen's fifty feather arrows, it became the last straw that crushed the camel. Fifty feathered arrows took the lives of fifty wolves.

At this time, there were less than forty wolves around the wolf king.

Finally, the wolf king stopped when he stepped on a small hill, turned his head, looked at the pursuers who were getting closer and closer, and suddenly let out a sad and majestic howl:

"Uh-huh—"

The remaining dozens of wolves also let out a terrible howl with the wolf king's howl.

The knight immediately reined in his horse and surrounded the wolf king and the remaining wolves.

"It seems that this green wolf king is going to fight hard!" The woman said to Zhang Yunwen with a serious face.

Sure enough, after hearing the wolf king's mournful howl, more than forty wolves gathered around the wolf king, and then, the wolves rushed down from the hillside in unison.

I saw more than 40 wolves rushing down through the mountain, and their momentum was so great that it made people change. Even the horses under their crotch were very disturbed. Especially at the moment when the wolf king roared and charged, almost all the war horses couldn't help but scurry, and some people stood up and actually dismounted the knights.

Zhang Yunwen simply dismounted, held a big bow, and then took out an arrow. It was one of his last two arrows. Rack your bow and aim at the wolf king.

Suddenly, I saw that someone next to me was also bending his bow and shooting, but it was the woman who was holding a white feather arrow and also aimed at the wolf king

He glanced back at his quiver, and sure enough, it was empty.

After settling down, Zhang Yunwen aimed at the wolf king again, and then let go of his fingers.

After a string sounded, I saw the white feather arrow shoot straight towards the wolf king like lightning.

The wolf king seemed to sense the arrival of the feather arrow, and jumped to the side in the running charge, avoiding the feather arrow that shot from him.

However, the wolf behind it was not so flexible, and was directly nailed to the ground by feathered arrows, and then trampled by the wolves behind it.

"Whoosh-" Another white-feathered arrow flew out and shot straight at the wolf king.

The timing was perfect at this time, the wolf king had just jumped to the side, and before he could adjust, a feathered arrow flew in. But the wolf king still twisted his body. The feather arrow plunged deep into its hind legs.

The first arrow was shot by Zhang Yunwen, but the second arrow was shot by the woman.

Seeing that she had been shot, the woman showed a beautiful smile to Zhang Yunwen, as if announcing her victory. Then draw your scimitar and prepare to meet the wolves.

Zhang Yunwen also drew his horizontal knife and rushed towards the wolves with more than 300 Xi soldiers.

With a knife, he cut a wolf that pounced on him into two pieces, and Zhang Yunwen's target was the wolf king.

I saw that the wolf king was surrounded by more than ten people in a circle, constantly roaring and impacting, but when he touched the scimitar of the Xi pawn, he became scarred. Blood flowed out of his body.

And at this moment, the female knight walked into the circle with a knife and said something to the wolf in Turkic. However, the wolf king did not understand the woman's words at all, and responded directly with roaring fangs and waving claws.

The female knight was not timid, and confronted the wolf king with a scimitar.
