[The fourth update, 2010 is still the last day, 300,000 words of commitment is about to be achieved, work hard to ask for red tickets, collection. 】

The sky was overcast, and the sky on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month was glowing with a heavy leaden gray, and the gray sky and white earth were blurred at the junction of heaven and earth. The wind was up, too, not cold, but cold enough that it looked like it was going to snow. The road stretched at the foot, and Han Gang and his party were getting closer and closer to the thousand-year-old capital.

Lu Ming is a frequent traveler between Tokyo and Kansai, and is familiar with the roads. He rode on the mule and pointed in the direction of the south, "After another seventeen or eighteen miles, you will be able to see the city of Jingzhaofu." ”

Han Gang nodded, the journey of seventeen or eighteen miles can be completed in just one hour, and he should be able to reach the city before the city gate closes. It's just that he looked down at Lu Ming riding on the mule, and complained a little in his heart, if it weren't for the poor foot strength of his mule and the delay of the trip, he should have lived in the post house in Chang'an City now.

Listening to Lu Ming's words, Han Gang's party sped up a little, making Lu Ming's mule chase a little hard, and while walking, he called unhappily.

It was only a mile before their speed slowed down again, and the mules stopped calling, but Lu Ming called, "What's wrong!" What's wrong! What happened, how did it block up? ”

Right in front of them, for some reason, a group of people gathered. Seven or eight carriages and horses stopped, and together with more than 100 people, the official road leading to Chang'an was tightly blocked. In the fields on both sides of the official road, the snow is more than three or four feet deep, and it is not like the snow on the official road has been flattened by the bustling carriages and pedestrians. Originally, because of the roadbed, the official road should be a foot higher than the surrounding area, but now it seems to be stuck in the middle of the snow. As long as the snow has not melted, the road ahead is so blocked, it is impossible to get off the official road and detour, just like Fang Cai's tax card.

"What's going on?!" Han Gang also wondered, he and Liu Zhongwu drove forward, drove away the crowd blocking the way, and forced them to the side of the official road. No matter how many complaints there were behind him, he squeezed to the front.

"Wolves!" Lu Ming screamed like a woman.

"It's good that it's not a big bug!" Han Gang said coldly. At this time, the word environmental protection was not born, tigers, wolves and bears ran all over the mountains, and there were only a handful of tigers in the prefectures and counties near the Qinling Mountains in Shaanxi. Han Gang's Ha Long Bay Village, basically, every two or three years, a big insect will come as a guest, and it is not strange to see tigers on the road, let alone wolves......

It's just a little bit more.

In front of the official road, where the travel was blocked, there were unbelievably twenty or thirty hungry wolves. In the center of the pack was a dead horse that had been gnawed off a lot of flesh. Horse carcasses are limited in size, and only the strongest wolves can squeeze in front of the horses and bury their heads in the carcass, the flesh being torn off one by one, and the sound of crunching bones making people feel toothache. The rest of the hungry wolves were constantly spinning around the periphery, their eyes shining green, and from time to time, a few wanted to squeeze into the inner circle to get a piece of the pie, but they were immediately slapped back by a paw.

The dead horse still had a reins around its neck, and the reined carriage was next to the dead horse, surrounded by wolves in the center. In addition to the wolves, there were five or six two-wheeled carriages of the same shape as those in the wolves, and the people in the carriages all came down, fifteen or sixteen people, men and women, all looking at the carriages in the wolves in a hurry, wanting to step forward, but they didn't dare, they were always hesitating.

"There's someone in the car!" Liu Zhongwu exclaimed.

"Hmm!" Han Gang nodded, he also saw and heard. A pack of hungry wolves that couldn't eat meat circled around the dead horses and wagons, and there were always a few impatient people who wanted to jump on the cart. The curtain at the door of the carriage shook incessantly, and the screams passed through the curtain and faintly reached the ears of onlookers.

Foraging is not suitable in winter, and large groups of wolves are rarely seen. Most of the people I see on weekdays are lone wolves, and at most they are only three or five heads out together, and they often run away when they see people, and they don't dare to stay on the thoroughfare where people come and go for a long time. Whether Han Gang is in Qinzhou or on this trip, he has encountered wolves in the wild a few times. Much thinner than the domestic dogs, but at a glance, you can tell that they are fierce.

But there had never been a time when Han Gang had seen so many wolves at the same time. The more the mouth gathers to eat, the less food you find, whether it's a wolf or a human. If such a large group of hungry wolves gathers next time, there must be a reason.

"These brutes are all drawn by blood." Liu Zhongwu suddenly burst out and explained Han Gang's question.

Han Gang took a closer look, only to find that there was a long trail of blood on the snow, and there were a pair of rut marks on both sides of the bloodstain that had been blurred. These dozens of wolves were definitely not a group, but were attracted by the bloody qi from all directions. That convoy didn't leave the wounded horses early when the wolves appeared, and only now will they be rounded.

Han Gang looked at the carriage besieged by wolves and shook his head, the situation was not good at the moment. The people in the carriage did not abandon the train early, which was the biggest mistake. The wolf is afraid of people, and the first few lone wolves will never dare to fight with people. The person in the car got out of the car and walked directly forward. With a horse corpse to attract the attention of wolves, people will be fine at all. But as time dragged on, the hungry wolves came more and more, and at this time, it had become a situation where they couldn't leave if they wanted to.

And as the bloody qi drifted farther and farther away, a thin wolf with only a handful of bones left from the hungry head kept coming up from the field on the side of the official road. It was only a moment that Han Gang was waiting here, and the number of wolves increased by three or four. If it drags on any longer, a dead horse will definitely not be enough for more and more hungry wolves. By then, the wolves, already stimulated, would surely begin to attack the other horses and humans, and the convoy might all be killed in the belly of the wolves.

"Han Guanren, what should I do?" Liu Zhongwu asked Han Gang's idea. Although he was asking Han Gang for advice. But seeing his expression suddenly becoming deeper, Han Gang knew that even if he objected, Liu Zhongwu would definitely act on his own.

Lu Ming interjected and proposed: "It's better to quickly turn back and look for rescuers in the town you just passed, as long as a team of people comes, you can drive these beasts away." ”

Suggestions made to cover up their cowardice have no practical meaning. Liu Zhongwu didn't give Lu Ming any face: "Really wait for us to find the rescuers, and everyone will be dead." Han Guanren, what do you say? He consulted Han Gang again.

"Aren't there just a few dozen wolves? They have food next to them, so what is there to be afraid of? "If it was a group of hungry wolves without food, Han Gang would not go to join in the fun, even if he was lucky enough not to fall into it, he would not be able to get bitten. But since there is a dead horse for the wolves to eat, there is no need to fear that the wolves will attack them. Han Gang threw the package tied behind the saddle to Li Xiaoliu and began to check his weapons and equipment.

Liu Zhongwu flicked the bowstring, and the humming string sound indicated that his two-stone longbow was in good condition, "I hope that the one in the car is a beauty, and it will not be in vain to waste all the hard work of the family." He said with a relaxed smile.

Liu Zhongwu is not a rigid stuffy gourd, in fact, he can also tell a joke, and his popularity is also very good. Otherwise, when he set off for the capital that day, there would not be so many brothers who would come to feed him.

Han Gang straightened out his outfit, the bow and arrow and saber were all reconfirmed once and again to see if they were neat, and at the same time, he did not forget to pour cold water on Liu Zhongwu: "It will never be a beauty, most of it will be an old bone!" ”

"Official, can you see it?!" Liu Zhongwu felt that his vision power should be above Han Gang. He is known for his keen eyesight, able to see the faces of people a hundred steps away, and in winter, he can see the white-haired fox in the snow at a glance. And the big measures that read in front of the oil lamp every day, how can there be a pair of good eyes that can see through the car window curtains.

"You can think of it! …… In that car sat the owner of the entire convoy, and he was still a good character. Han Gang took out his waist knife, checked whether it was intact, and then retracted it into the sheath.

"Official, how do you know the way?" Liu Zhongwu cautiously asked, could it be that Han Gang could pinch it. If he really has this ability, he still has to avoid him in the future.

After checking it from head to toe, Han Gang patted his body and found that there was no negligence, everything had been prepared, so he pointed to the crowd of onlookers watching from afar at both ends of the official road, and explained to Liu Zhongwu: "Don't you see how many people are surrounded by people on both sides of the road?" If it weren't for the fact that only the people in the car had the right to make up their minds, the people in the convoy would have come out with a bounty to drive the wolves. But their master doesn't speak, and who of the servants below dares to overstep his bounds? ”

Han Gang looked back at the sky to the west, and the lead ash in the sky became darker and darker. He said to Liu Zhongwu: "It's almost night, and it's hard to say if you don't do it." ”

Liu Zhongwu laughed, "Just wait for this sentence in the official!" ”

With a shout, the two of them raised their bows at the same time and drove forward. After more than twenty paces, he pulled his mount sideways and stretched his bow and arrows on his horse. Han Gang and Liu Zhongwu's movements attracted the attention of all onlookers, and the members of the convoy also let out low cheers. Lu Ming was so shocked that he couldn't speak, Han Gang personally said that he was a civil official, how could he be so bold?

Two strings sounded, and two long arrows flew out at the same time. Everyone was about to cheer, but they saw Liu Zhongwu's arrow pierced into the snow, the tail of the arrow was all gone, and a hungry wolf next to him who was buried in the belly of the horse's corpse didn't even raise his head. And Han Gang's arrow was even better, and with a snatch, it hit the wheel of the carriage.

"Birds!" Liu Zhongwu shook his head and scolded, his archery skills were not bad, but his fingers were frozen stiff, he couldn't use his strength, and he couldn't grasp the strength well, and it was difficult to open the bow on the horse, and the same problem also appeared on Han Gang. The two of them shot two more arrows, and they saw only the arrows flying, but not a single wolf was missed.
