Chapter 194: Passing through the Wolf's Den

Zhu Qing led the escort team out of the customs overnight and rushed to Ningyuan.

In the middle of the night, they passed by the wolf's den, where the wolves haunted.

......Sure enough, when the escort team passed by the wolf's den, the wolf howls in the jungle came and went. Occasionally, you can see a few green lights shining out of the snow. The horses of the escort team couldn't help but stir.

"Big brother?" Although Lin Bai had passed by here many times, the presence of wolves on this snowy night still made him feel uneasy.

"Don't be afraid. Lead the horse, don't let the horse go crazy. They won't dare come here. Zhu Qing said, already drawing his knife, paying close attention to all movements in the jungle.

"Hey, this Father-in-law Cao doesn't take care of this wolf pack when he sleeps at night. In the middle of the night, they came out to disturb the people. Sai Shiqian joked, everyone here knows that Cao Huachun, the owner of this wolf den, is the real wolf king.

"Hmph, stocking or not, they can howl us, and naturally they can howl bad guys. Don't say it, outside the border, this area is the most peaceful, with the least robbery, murder and theft. This is all thanks to the wolves guarding the area. Zhu Qing smiled slightly. Hurry up and get through the wolf's den.

Suddenly, a hungry wolf rushed down the hillside and pounced on the horses.

"Lin Bai be careful!" Zhu Qing shouted, jumped off the horse, and a knife with a cold light lay in front of the wolf, "Lead the horse!" Seeing that the horse team was in a commotion, Zhu Qing commanded. Lin Bai, Sai Shiqian and others hurriedly dismounted, led the horses, and controlled the scene.

"Whew!" Zhu Qing held the knife, looked at the hungry wolf with his eyes, and roared angrily at the hungry wolf.

The hungry wolf was frightened back by Zhu Qing's momentum, but he had no intention of leaving, and kept staring at Zhu Qingwolf.

"It looks like it hasn't eaten in a long time." Lin Bai said softly, his heart beating faster. He can fight with a sword in the midst of thousands of horses, but he can't face a wolf.

"No, its belly isn't flat." Sai Shiqian shook his head and carefully observed the hungry wolf.

"That's right, it's not hungry, it's smelling blood!" Zhu Qing's eyes stared at the hungry wolf, and his lips said softly. Seeing that the hungry wolf had no intention of leaving, and Zhu Qing had to hurry up, otherwise the horses would go crazy. Zhu Qing pulled the knife in front of the hungry wolf, but did not cut it down, he hoped to scare the hungry wolf away.

"Stop!" Suddenly, a white shadow appeared on the col, and his clothes almost melted into the snow on this snowy night.

"The Wolf King?"

"Grandpa Cao?" Zhu Qing noticed that it was Cao Huachun.

"Qinglong, where are you going to be in a hurry this night. Hahaha. Cao Huachun's mood seemed to be getting better and better, which made it hard to imagine that he was the great eunuch who once lived in the shadows.

"Yes, father-in-law, Qinglong heard that Ning Yuan was going to have something, so he rushed over. But you wolf king didn't take care of your wolf cubs. In the middle of the night, you want to stop me from eating wolf meat. Zhu Qing said with a smile.

"Hahaha, you can't eat this wolf." Cao Huachun laughed.

"Oh? But why? Although Zhu Qing was just joking, he would not slaughter wild wolves, after all, the wolves had saved his life and rescued the danger of Shanhaiguan.

"This wolf just ate a person two days ago, and it is estimated that it is still in its stomach at this time, if you say that if you eat it, can you eat it?" Cao Huachun said it so disgusting and cruel, but it was much better than before.

"Oh? And what else is there? Father-in-law Cao, although this wolf pack is beneficial to you, you shouldn't let it come out and hurt people casually, let alone eat people casually. After hearing this, Zhu Qing said seriously.

"You don't know, it's not an ordinary person, it's a big bad guy."

"Who?"

"This person came from Kaifeng and went to Jinzhou outside the Guan, with an elegant appearance, but in fact a wolf and tiger inside. You say, shouldn't such a person eat? Cao Huachun said, brushing his newly grown mustache and laughing.

"Big brother, it won't be Zhang Fa, right?" Xuanwu asked.

Zhu Qing didn't respond, he took a deep breath, and a hint of foreboding passed through his heart.

"No matter how evil you are, if someone should cure it, how can you let the beasts eat it?" Zhu Qing felt that this was a bit inhumane!

"It's all eaten, it's too late for you to say this." Cao Huachun responded.

"Then don't blame Qinglong for punishing this murderer." Zhu Qing said, raised his knife and slashed at the hungry wolf.

"Wait!" Cao Huachun snorted.

Zhu Qing's hand stopped in mid-air.

"The Sprinkle family is playing with you, a few days ago there was indeed a person in a hurry out of the customs, in the wolf's den was caught up by the hungry wolf of the Sprinkle family, when the Sprinkle family saw his waist card, it was actually the quartermaster of Kaifeng, the Sprinkle family heard that you have something to do with this person, and then let him go, he ran out of a hundred miles, the wolf chased after it, but did not eat, just bitten it. Doesn't this person look like a bad person? You know the wolves of the Sprinkle family, they don't attack ordinary people. Good people don't. Cao Huachun explained.

"So, the man isn't dead?" Zhu Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

"Not dead. However, the Sprinkle family advises you, if you want to live, some people must die! Cao Huachun said, learned a wolf howl, and then called out, "Come back, come back." The hungry wolf then turned around and ran towards Cao Huachun.

"Thank you father-in-law for your advice." Zhu Qing watched Cao Huachun turn around and walk back to the wolf's den, and hugged his fists to thank him.

"It seems that it is really Zhang Fa." After Cao Huachun left, he moved to Zhu Qingdao.

Zhu Qing nodded, and then jumped on the wind chasing horse, "Let's go!" His voice was full of anger, and Zhang Fa, whom he regarded as a brother, really did not have the slightest remorse.

"Let's go!" Lin Bai greeted, and the horse team followed Zhu Qing and re-embarked on the road. Under the clear path of the wolf king Cao Huachun, they passed through the wolf's den smoothly and headed towards Ningyuan.

The sky was bright, Ningyuan City was already close in front of him, and from the outside, the city seemed to be calm.

"Big brother, it's here." Xuanwu walked ahead of the owe to explore the way, and turned around and said.

"Well, Brother Shi Qian and Vice General Lin will stay to take care of the horse team, and Xuanwu and I will go to check it out in case of accidents." Zhu Qing turned his head and said.

"It's the general!"

"Let's go." Zhu Qing said to Xuanwu, and the two rode war horses to get closer to the gate of Ningyuan City.

"Stop! Who's here?! Just as Zhu Qing and Xuanwu were approaching the city gate, the guards on the city wall suddenly noticed it and shouted. It was snowing lightly, and Zhu Qing and Xuanwu were wearing thick clothes, no wonder the soldiers defending the city couldn't recognize them.

"I'm Qinglong, can Vice General Cheng be there?" Zhu Qing pulled down his unkempt head and echoed towards the city wall.

"It turned out to be the general! Wait a minute, I'll go and inform Vice General Cheng of them. When the soldiers defending the city heard that it was Zhu Qing, they were pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly sent someone to inform Cheng Li.

After a while, Cheng Li ran out, "Open the city gate quickly and greet the general!" ”

"Yes!" The gate of Ningyuan City slowly opened, and Cheng Li couldn't wait to greet him, "General!" Cheng Li has met two generals. I don't know that the general is so fast, and he has missed the distance, and I hope the general will forgive me. ”

"Vice General Cheng, please hurry up, they are all their own people, there is no need to be so polite." Zhu Qing and Xuanwu jumped off their horses, and Zhu Qing helped Cheng Li up.

"How? Has there been any movement in Ningyuan recently? Zhu Qing asked.

"According to reliable information, Dolgon wants to take advantage of this snow, and the bearded man and I are hurrying to train in case of emergency." Cheng Lidao.

"What? On this cold day, you train so early? Xuanwu said in surprise.

"I'll just say, Deputy General Cheng will guard Ningyuan, I'll rest assured, let's see, how about it? Hahaha! Zhu Qing excitedly patted Cheng Li's shoulder and encouraged.

"The general has won the award, although this soldier has been trained, but this material ......" Cheng Li wanted to speak and stopped.

"Hey, I know, no, you see, this time I was stunned to transport these things to you from Kaifeng." Zhu Qing said, pointing not far behind him, and the horse team loomed in the snow.

"Great! Don't worry about these soldiers! Cheng Li said excitedly.

"Come, tell them to bring the horse team." Zhu Qing said to Xuanwu.

"Hey, come here!" Xuanwu shouted loudly, made a big move, and Sai Shiqian and Lin Bai drove the horse team towards the gate of Ningyuan City.
