Chapter 14 The hemlock forest is ambushed
50 miles to the east of Baitang Village is Wuke Village, and there are two iron mines near Wuke Village, although it is within the scope of Wuke Village, but in fact, due to the level of the village, only one is within its range, and the other is 100 miles away. Now that the two villages have been merged into a second-tier village, the territory of the reward is close to it.
According to the scouts, no other player territories have been found in the vicinity of the village's mines. However, due to the current scientific and technological level of Baitang Village, it cannot achieve the ability to transport iron ore back and forth for a hundred miles, so this iron ore has not been mined for the time being. The purpose of Tang Xiaobai's trip is to explore this iron ore mine and comprehensively evaluate it from the aspects of quality and reserves, as well as the development of science and technology.
If it's worth the painstaking mining, then the sooner the better, if not, then use the nearest iron ore for development, and then further mining later. To get to the iron mine, you need to pass through a hemlock forest, then cross a branch of a river that flows down, and then pass through a plain.
Tang Xiaobai didn't bring a single soldier, only Fat Tiger and Xu Chu. Fat Tiger can become bigger and smaller, acting as Tang Xiaobai's mount, while Xu Chu serves as a bodyguard. After all, the soldiers in the village are all trained by Zhao Yun, and Xu Chu is currently idle.
"Zhong Kang, through this hemlock forest, there is a plain in front of you. I've been in the village for so long, and this is the first time I've come out, so I don't know what I'll encounter in front of me. Tang Xiaobai's eyes were full of anticipation, he had been here for a month, except for the time when the village had not seen outside, whenever he saw all kinds of birds flying in the sky, he was thinking, outside the hemlock forest, on the opposite side of the Liuqing River, what kind of people and creatures would be waiting for him?
"No matter what is ahead, if there is an enemy, Xu Chu will help the lord crush him!" Xu Chu is not as good as Guo Jia who can fully understand Tang Xiaobai's meaning, but he can protect the lord in the most simple and rude way.
"Let's go!" Tang Xiaobai motioned for the fat tiger to move forward, Xu Chu also followed closely beside him, and after glancing at the fat tiger, he vigilantly inspected around.
Speaking of which, I have to talk about the magic of the fat tiger, although he has just broken out of the shell (eh, why did the tiger break the shell), but he has the same skills as the blood lion to become bigger and smaller, and he is strong, carrying Tang Xiaobai over the mountains and mountains is also like walking on the ground. Moreover, the looming tiger power on its body made Xu Chu's shadow a little jealous.
The two of them did not enter the hemlock forest, and at this time, a figure flashed, but no one noticed it.
——————
The hemlock forest is not big, it is not small, there are a lot of rare beasts in it, and there are also a lot of fierce beasts, but because of the tiger power of the fat tiger, the ordinary fierce beasts dare not approach, so they go deeper and deeper, and I don't know how long the two of them have been walking, the surrounding sunlight gradually dimmed, and the whole forest is a little gloomy and lonely.
"Meow~Woo" The fat tiger screamed, and then stopped, and the Shadow Horse also stopped at this time. Xu Chu also seemed to sense something, staring at a low-lying area in front of the hemlock forest, where there was a cluster of bushes. Tang Xiaobai couldn't help but get nervous, did he encounter something?
"Whoosh." A pure white rabbit came out in a string, Tang Xiaobai secretly sighed, but he felt that Xu Chu had pulled out his thousand-pound knife at this moment, and he knew in his heart that it was probably not so simple.
Sure enough, with a low roar, a snow-white wolf slowly paced out of the bushes, and when it saw the fat tiger under Tang Xiaobai, its eyes flinched slightly and stopped. But after a while, he stepped forward with a fierce face.
"My lord, be careful, wait for me to clean up that beast." Xu Chu took a big knife, turned over and dismounted.
Tang Xiaobai clearly saw that when Xu Chu said the word beast, there was obviously an angry light in the white wolf's eyes, and it could understand human words. Could it be that all creatures of this time are so spiritual? Tang Xiaobai smiled slightly, knowing it in his heart, but he didn't say anything, just took out his seven-star treasure knife and turned over and got off the tiger.
During this period of time, Tang Xiaobai followed Zhao Yun every day to contact Xuantigong, although it cannot be compared with Zhao Zilong, but he also has a certain combat effectiveness, if these really attack, he can still resist for a while. After Tang Xiaobai came down, the fat tiger shrank in size, and his petite size was more suitable for fighting in this dense forest.
"Whew~" The white wolf let out a long howl, and suddenly more than ten pairs of green eyes suddenly appeared around, and wolves the size of earthy yellow calves surrounded them.
"Whew~" another long howl.
More than a dozen coyotes received the order of the wolf king and attacked at the same time, at this moment Xu Chu also moved, the big knife slashed out, and directly cut the four coyotes that pounced on Tang Xiaobai on the side into two sections, and then swept with a backhand punch, and three coyotes were slapped on the ground, their chests collapsed, and they obviously couldn't survive.
Hmph, low-level brute! Xu Chu snorted coldly, and the nine-eared and eight-ring elephant trunk knife slashed out again, and several coyotes were separated and died. Just a mask, more than a dozen coyotes were all destroyed, and Tang Xiaobai did not make a move. Tang Xiaobai, who had been staring at the wolf king, also found that a look of surprise flashed in the eyes of this white wolf king, very humane, or rather, it was a person in itself.
"The same people who have fallen to the end of the world, and they are also players who have been lured to this battlefield continent, they face a lot of dangers in the early stage, why don't you make friends and cooperate for a win-win situation?" Tang Xiaobai said to the wolf king.
"My lord, can this beast understand you? You say cooperation, is there anyone? ”
Tang Xiaobai smiled and didn't say anything, just quietly watched the white wolf's reaction, it was obvious that the white wolf stopped for a moment, and then the eyes lost that sense of agility. Next, when the wolf king saw the wolf corpses all over the ground, he suddenly let out a terrible wail, got into the bushes with his tail between his legs, and disappeared.
"My lord?"
Tang Xiaobai waved his hand and said, "Zhongkang, it seems that we have to be careful on this trip, we are being targeted by very interesting people." ”
"Yes, my lord!" After that, Xu Chu continued to stare vigilantly at the movements of the Quartet.
Tang Xiaobai thought that now he had met an unknown person in Caili Village for more than 20 miles, that village? Then he shook his head, Guo Jia and Zhao Yun were both in the village, and if they wanted to attack the village, it was much more difficult than attacking themselves. Moreover, he is also very interested in the abilities of this mysterious person.
"Presumably he won't dare to show up for a while, let's keep walking." Tang Xiaobai rode on the fat tiger again and continued to move forward, as if what had happened just now had not happened, and the clouds were light and the wind was light.
