Drifting Sand in the West Chapter 10 The Battle Before Dawn
However, the battle still needs to continue. Isn't it?
Gradually, the wolves no longer dispersed in four directions, but gradually converged in one direction.
Is this the rhythm of a collective attack? If we were faced with wheel warfare before, now we are preparing for a group attack.
Seeing this, Brother Li said calmly: "Everyone, pay attention, these things want to win in quantity." Cannon you keep an eye on the rear to prevent the dumplings from being blown up. Xiao Li, Xiao Ling, and I faced it head-on. Everyone must pay close attention to maintaining the formation and do not be scattered. ”
In this way, I was in the middle, Li Tong and Li Ge were on the left and right, and the whole formation was an inverted triangle.
Don't you want to end the battle quickly? We're here to help.
"Howl ,......" Countless wolf howls sounded at dawn. It seems that this battle will come sooner or later.
The final battle is still coming.
At this time, the wolves are gradually arranged in a three-headed formation, which is also reasonable, and the purpose is to keep us free.
"Everyone, pay attention, concentrate on solving the wolves, don't be distracted, and don't be scattered by the wolves." Brother Li reminded again.
"Okay!" I said with the cannon, and Li Tong also nodded.
Suddenly, three wolves at the front rushed towards us, and the wolves behind followed us, leaving us no time to spare.
I had a big knife in my hand, and I didn't dare to move my face and eyelids. The wolf that came at me had a hideous face, baring its sharp teeth, as if I had become the prey of its mouth.
Come, say a word in your heart.
In the blink of an eye, the wolf in front of me had already arrived at the side, and without the slightest hesitation, I flashed sideways. The wolf in the back followed, without the slightest time to spare. And just like that, the wolves formed an arcing circle in front of me.
"Oh no, if the circle is closed, I'll be completely isolated." I thought to myself. Using his peripheral vision to look at the others, they were also in the middle of a fierce fight. I had to rush out on my own. I picked up my broadsword and swung it at the wolves around me.
The wolves in front of me, all grinning teeth, want to tear me apart, want to seize every opportunity to isolate me. I was desperately wielding a big knife around me, not giving these guys any chance.
However, it was often not what I imagined, and I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my foot. At first glance, his calf was scratched by a wolf, and blood was constantly flowing out.
And the wolves saw me as if victory was ahead. Attack, even more frenzied, like a raging storm, wreaked havoc on me.
After a while, there was no wolf's claw scratch on his left hand, fortunately, the wound was not big, but the blood kept coming out. In a few moments, the coat was already soaked in blood.
Am I really going to die today? No, I'm not reconciled.
A wolf came to me in the blink of an eye, and wanted to bite my arm with his mouth, and if he was bitten, he would probably lose half his life.
I hurriedly flashed as I pulled out my dagger and stabbed the wolf in the eye. A stream of black liquid burst out and stained my coat.
"Woo,......" The wolf let out a wail, and by this time it was already a one-eyed wolf.
"Come here!" I roared. The wolves were frightened by me, and one by one they retreated not far away, baring their teeth.
A round of sun appeared in the distant sky, and the orange-yellow sunlight shone on the desert. The surroundings gradually brighten up. Looking around, more than a dozen wolf carcasses were lying in front of us, blood gushing from the wounds. The morning sun shone in the desert, and the wolf's wounds were steaming hot, and the blood had already seeped into the yellow sand.
Dawn has become the death knell for these wolves.
The wolves in front of him have long since lost the domineering they had before, and are more of a loss and sadness. Looking at the lost companions, there seemed to be a trace of sentimentality on their faces. Gradually, the wolves receded, their eyes reluctant to look at their dead companions.
The thrilling night is over, and the victory is ours in the end.
"It's fucking fun." The cannon put on a look of unfinished business.
"Don't be pushy." I lost a sentence. Suddenly I felt my head was big and I fell to the ground.
I don't know how long later, a voice rang in my ears. "Ling Qi, you've finally woken up." Li Tong wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said with concern.
"Yes, Brother Seven, you finally woke up. It scared the hell out of us. Cannon also said.
"I don't know what's going on, I feel tired. I'm sorry, I'm dragging everyone down. I was embarrassed to say, with an apologetic look on my face.
"Don't talk about that yet, you can get some rest. Considering that everyone didn't have a good rest last night, we halved our journey today. Li Tong said. Having fed the camels a little feed and water, we were ready to go.
Around nine o'clock, we still set off. After last night's battle, everyone's faces were full of fatigue, and they didn't fall off the camel's back. Everyone didn't talk much in the morning, and last night's battle had exerted everyone's physical strength, and they couldn't raise their interest in talking at this time.
Slowly in the yellow sand, the camel caravan of the four of us added a touch of vividness and interest to this monotonous color. Except for the sound of camels stepping on the sand, there was nothing. And, of course, the gurgling sound of the cannon's belly. In this silent desert, it does not seem monotonous and boring.
Time flies quickly, and noon has arrived in the blink of an eye. But today is not as good luck as yesterday, and the sun is completely scorching in front of me. There was no choice but to settle lunch on horseback.
In the afternoon, a castle resembling a castle appeared in front of me. The three of us looked at us in amazement.
"This is Devil's Town." Brother Li said simply.
"Devil's Town? That's what it looks like. The three of us said in unison.
This devil's town is the result of natural wind erosion and looks like a castle. Something resembling a city wall stands in front of you. At first glance, it really looks like an ancient city.
In fact, there was no castle here. It's just nature, this nature is amazing. After years of carving, the original landscape has become the scene in front of you.
The walls in front of us were not as angular as we usually see, but like pebbles in the middle of the river, and the walls were all scratched. The city walls and the desert blend together perfectly, and everything is so harmonious. And we became outsiders.
Walk around the city walls and feel like you're in an ancient market. Not to mention that this feeling is really different. It's like a dream. If there really is a city in the desert, it is really like a pearl here in the future.
And in front of us, there is nothing, just the yellow sand in the sky, and the scorching sun. And, of course, the occasional echo of our conversations, resounding all around and reverberating for a long time.
