Chapter 386: Wild Wolf Valley
Chapter 386: Wolf Valley (Page 1/1)
"Quick, get on your horse quickly, find a place to defend against the wolves first."
Su Ziheng shouted loudly and commanded everyone to get back on their horses.
Shi Meng raised his voice and said: "Master, there is a valley not far ahead, where the terrain is steep, it is a good place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, we can go to the front to dodge." ”
Su Ziheng shouted: "Advance in two waves, the carriage goes first, and the other wave of people ride horses behind to stop the wolves, as long as they don't approach easily, don't make the first move, so as not to anger them." ”
"Yes, sir!"
Everyone moved quickly, and several women, including Zhao Wan'er, were no exception, helping to set up the car so that the horses could run.
Fortunately, Su Ziheng didn't completely untie the noose when he checked the horse just now, otherwise it would have been delayed.
After setting up the carriage, Su Ziheng raised his horsewhip and whipped the horse pulling the carriage fiercely, making it run quickly.
Although these horses have been drugged, they are chronic poisons, and as long as they are willing to stimulate the potential of this group of horses, they can still run at high speed for an hour, but in this way, these horses will almost cost them.
Fortunately, Su Ziheng expected this, and besides, at this time, it is not the time to think about horses, who knows where Deng Zhilong is engaged in a conspiracy in the future, if he can't get rid of the wolves, everything will be in vain.
"Don't worry about the horses, it's a big deal to buy new horses with the herders later, and let them run for now."
Seeing that the stimulation effect of the horsewhip was not strong, Su Ziheng gritted his teeth, pulled out the dagger he carried with him, and slammed it into the horse's buttocks.
As soon as the horse was in pain, he spread his hooves and galloped wildly, heading for the valley ahead.
Seeing this, the others also learned Su Ziheng's movements and stabbed the horse's buttocks with the tip of the knife, anyway, the master said, no matter what the follow-up is, first get through the difficulties in front of you.
As the horses galloped, the wolves that were hanging far behind them also sped up to catch up.
After the praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finch, Deng Zhilong and more than 300 other people gradually caught up with the traces left by Su Ziheng's convoy all the way.
When Mahamu saw Deng Zhilong jump off the horse, he crawled on the ground to check the lump of horse manure left on the ground, he also jumped off the horse, found a wooden stick, and pulled the horse manure that had not yet dried, carefully distinguishing the substances contained in it.
Suddenly, his eyes froze, and he saw one of the dark red husk granules, and he didn't care about anything else, so he reached out and picked it up and put it on his nose and sniffed it, smelling a special fragrance, and looked back at Deng Zhilong, who was full of joy, and a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes.
This dark red husk granule is a plant fruit that has a unique taste, but it is harmful to animals and can cause weakness when eaten. The effect is especially good on horses, and the average horse can quickly age from the prime of life to old age after eating the fruit of this plant.
Generally in the prairie, herders will take the initiative to eradicate this plant when they see it, and uproot it and burn it with fire to prevent it from spreading.
Unexpectedly, this man actually took the initiative to feed his horses with this poisonous plant fruit, which is really disgraceful.
No wonder he swore that he could catch up with the convoy in front, but it turned out that he had already done something.
Deng Zhilong and the others traced the road for a while, and soon found that in addition to horse manure, there were traces of wild wolves, and it seemed that in addition to himself and others, wild wolves were also embellished with the convoy in front.
Mahamu is not impressed, the fruit can cause weakness in animals, and after a long history of evolution, wild wolves are also aware of this. They know that prey that has eaten the fruit is particularly easy to hunt, so if they smell the fruit in their droppings, they will definitely chase after them.
Deng Zhilong stood up, threw away the wooden stick in his hand, clapped his hands, and said in a deep voice: "Let's speed up and catch up, maybe we can enjoy a good show, maybe we don't need to do it, and the wild wolves will help us eliminate them first." ”
Mahamu frowned and said, "If that's the case, then the wanted person was eaten by wolves, what do we take to receive the reward?" ”
Mahamu was willing to send three hundred warriors to join Deng Zhilong in chasing and killing Su Ziheng's convoy, not only for his goods, but also for those bounties.
Deng Zhilong smiled when he heard this: "Don't worry, when the time comes, you can receive the reward as long as you win the first level." But it's best to catch it alive, and we will do it depending on the situation. By the way, Patriarch Mahamu, do you know what the place is ahead? Is there a good place for an ambush? ”
Ma Hamu stood up from the horse's back, built a pergola in front of his forehead with his right hand and looked into the distance, and suddenly said in surprise: "Not far ahead is the Wild Wolf Valley, they won't escape to the Wild Wolf Valley, right?" ”
"Wolf Valley? What is that place? Deng Zhilong asked puzzled.
Mahamu sighed and said, "As the name suggests, the Valley of Wild Wolves is the valley where many wild wolves live. In our grassland in the north of the desert, more than seventy percent of the wild wolves live in the wild wolf valley. If they really don't know whether they are alive or dead and hide in the Wild Wolf Valley, maybe the bones will be gone. ”
"Hiss......"
Deng Zhilong gasped when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Then do you know how many wild wolves there are in the Wild Wolf Valley?" ”
Ma Hamu shook his head and said, "I haven't counted it specifically, there should be three or four hundred." ”
Three or four hundred wolves, even Deng Zhilong is not calm now. Don't look at the fact that there are more than 300 people in their group, if they really want to face three or four hundred wolves, he will have to retreat.
This is no joke, a large wolf pack that can control three or four hundred wolves, there must be a wolf king, under the command of the wolf king, the wolf pack can be described as fearless to death, even if they can repel the wolf pack, they will suffer heavy losses.
Deng Zhilong thought for a while and said, "Let's catch up first, but don't do it without permission, wait until we see the results." ”
……
……
"Whew...... Whew......"
Su Ziheng was gasping for breath, and after a quarter of an hour of desperate galloping, the convoy finally arrived at the entrance of the valley after exhausting a few horses.
It was also thanks to those tired horses that they slowed down the speed of the wolves, made them stop and eat, and allowed Su Ziheng and the others to distance themselves.
After entering the valley, there are long and narrow mountain walls on both sides, and Su Ziheng visually measured that it is about a mile long, and then there is an empty basin.
"Phew!"
Su Ziheng grabbed the reins stiffly, made the horse stop, and said in a loud voice: "Just stop here, block the passage at the mouth of the valley, don't let the wolves break in, and go to a few more people to climb the mountain wall, once a wild wolf attacks from above, give me a hard beating." ”
If you want to escape from the pursuit of the wild wolves, it is best to rely on the favorable terrain to kill the wild wolves, otherwise let them hang themselves all the time, and sooner or later the wolves will find a chance to sneak attack.
