Volume 1 The Wind and Cloud of the Northern Plains Chapter 1 The Wolf Rides and Slaughters the Village

I don't know how long it has been, Zhou Zhe woke up from a coma, and it was no longer his home, and the time was about morning. Zhou Zhe was shocked by where he was when he saw his surroundings, and then noticed that the clothes on his body had changed into an ancient style, but they were just the right size. Then I saw my hands, and it seemed that I had returned to the strong and flexible palms I had when I was able to play basketball in high school, instead of the fingers and wrists that had been using the keyboard for many years. Touched his face, in addition to some fluff on his mouth, there was no hard stubble, he became younger, Zhou Zhe quickly thought of this, and then felt that there was something hanging on his neck, he did not have the habit of wearing a necklace, so he took off the thing on his neck and watched, a small wooden card, a big Zhou character on the front, his name was recorded on the back, and the same thing as the eight characters of his birthday, Zhou Zhe was not Mr. Yin and Yang, but he probably guessed that this brand was something similar to an ID card. Zhou Zhe observed the surroundings while dusting off the fallen leaves and dust on his body, it should be late autumn. Zhou Zhe looked up at the sky, took a deep breath, and before he could think carefully about his own situation, he seemed to hear a cry in his ears, and then returned to peace.

Zhou Zhe was instantly alarmed, and quickly found the position on the higher slope of the hill and followed the prestige. Not far from the foot of the mountain, there is a small village, from which the sound seems to have come from. It has been about 10 minutes since Zhou Zhe climbed to the top of the hill from hearing the sound, and at this moment there is no sound coming out of the small village, and only the residual smoke of some bonfires that have been extinguished can be seen. A team of more than a dozen people who seemed to be cavalry was marching at the foot of the mountain, Zhou Zhe didn't know who he was, and subconsciously lowered his body, but the distance was too far away to see clearly, but what he could see clearly was that these cavalry were not horses under their crotches, but more like huge wolves.

The team of more than a dozen people traveled very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, they disappeared on the path at the foot of the mountain. Don't think about it, the village just now should have been poisoned by this group of cavalry. Zhou Zhe did not flee immediately, but trotted all the way down the mountain road to the village at the foot of the mountain.

After entering the village, although Zhou Zhe had expected it, he was still shocked by the scene in front of him, stumps and broken arms were everywhere, blood flowed all over the ground, and the hellish scene made Zhou Zhe dizzy in his head, and then he vomited violently under the stimulation of the pungent smell of blood, until only retching remained. After a while, Zhou Zhe, who was relieved, tore the corner of his clothes, covered his mouth and nose, forcibly calmed down, and began to look at this small village.

First of all, the corpse, almost everyone has a similar brand on their necks as Zhou Zhe's neck, Li's Zigui, Wang's female frost... This should be a village with many surnames, and the antique houses in the village, and the couplets on the middle hall of the largest tiled house tell Zhou Zhe that this seems to be in ancient times, but Zhou Zhe obviously knew that the people who slaughtered the village just now were not the horses they were riding, and his mind was in chaos. However, it is already incredible that I can become young and come here. What are those creatures riding giant wolves?

"Save ...... Save..... Fate....." A staccato voice came from the back of the nave.

Zhou Zhe hurriedly ran to the back of the middle hall, and saw a middle-aged man dressed as a housekeeper, who was snuggling behind the wall, with a deep knife wound on his chest from his shoulder to his waist and abdomen, and the internal organs of the abdominal cavity could be vaguely seen. When the man saw Zhou Zhe, his gray eyes lit up, obviously he knew Zhou Zhe.

"Go.... Longquan Pass.... Wolf Ride.... Attack ....." and then the voice stopped abruptly, and Zhou Zhe's hand that wanted to cover the wound was just halfway out, and he could no longer move forward, as if he had a thousand weights. Then he could only sigh deeply, smoothing out the butler's eyes, which had lost his eyes.

didn't have time to think about it, Zhou Zhe continued to check, and in a study, he found something similar to a household registration book, and Zhou's Zizhe's name was impressively on it, and this village that no longer existed was called Anran Village. When he found his home again, there were only two corpses left and a piece of wreckage. But Zhou Zhe seems to be unable to find any other sadness except sympathy for the deceased, because in his memory, his parents should now buy vegetables in a supermarket or vegetable market, then play cards in the afternoon and square dance in the evening. A sense of confusion swept over him, and he quickly fled the place where he was suffocating and returned to the hillside where he had just been, panting tiredly. Even if he ran to the point of suffocating himself from lack of oxygen, he never managed to escape from this world, and he was still here.

The helpless Zhou Zhe sat on the hillside tiredly and looked back, and the ghost made him cry out in his heart that his life was great, because another team of wolf riders also appeared from the foot of the mountain and marched towards Anran Village. If you continue to stay just now, you probably won't be able to leave at this time. Not daring to stay any longer, Zhou Zhe discerned the direction, and to the north he might bump into the newly arrived wolf rider head-on, at this time he could only follow the mountain road, go to the southeast, and try to walk in the dense woods, because he couldn't estimate the wolf rider's eyesight and their hearing, but it was better to be safe.

Zhou Zhe, who was half-walking and half-running all the way, was embarrassed, the hard branches of the shrubs after the leaves fell in late autumn scraped a lot of holes on his clothes, and even because he accidentally fell a few heels under his feet, and a few blood marks were scratched on his hands, he didn't even dare to stop and stay, only dared to turn back occasionally, Zhou Zhe, who didn't know how long he had been walking, was hungry and tired, and it was already noon. Finally came to the foot of the mountain at another fork in the mountain.

Looking from a distance, a person seemed to be herding sheep at the foot of the mountain, and Zhou Zhe's heart was suddenly relieved, at least the previous wolf rider should not have taken this road. So he hurriedly ran over, stumbling along the way, and the man also noticed him, Zhou Zhe hurriedly made a small gesture with his hand, for fear that the man would shout and form an echo in the valley. Alarm the wolf rider who doesn't know where behind him. It wasn't until about 30 paces that he roared as low as he could in a hoarse voice

"The wolf is slaughtering the village, go to Longquan Pass! Go! Don't make a sound. ”

When I got closer, I could see clearly that the sheep herding was a fat man with a childish face that had not taken off his face, and he had a great lateral advantage, and when he saw Zhou Zhe stumbling over, he untied the water bladder from his waist and ran towards Zhou Zhe.

Because he heard the wolf ride, a word that stirs people's nerves in late autumn.

"Drink water, drink water, slow down, is it a wolf riding over?" said the little fat man in an angry voice, but rather calmly. Zhou Zhe did not hesitate, took the kettle, and poured it into his mouth with a gurgling face.

Before he could breathe, he spoke:

"Anran Village is gone, the wolf rode to slaughter the village, and went south from another mountain pass, there should be another team of wolf riders not far behind me, go quickly, go to Longquan Pass." ”

"Let's go!! let's go!! let's go!!" The little fat man, who was quite calm just now, suddenly became a little panicked. Zhou Zhe looked at him in a panic, probably from a nearby village, worried about his family

's safety is so panicked. hurriedly said:

"Hurry up, drive the sheep into the valley, or we'll go too slowly." Sheep can also slow down the wolf's ride. Where is your village?" the little fat man followed the advice, but it was rare that he didn't

Entangled in the gains and losses of the flock, he drove the flock directly into the valley with sticks and stones, and the hand was very heavy, and soon the head sheep led the flock to the valley. The little fat man pointed to the mountain pass and said:

"Our Lin Village is on the back side of the mountain, and a hundred miles northeast of the village is Longquan Pass, you go with me!"

"Well, you lead the way, let's hurry. Zhou Zhegang gasped for breath, but knew that this moment was imminent, so he couldn't help but say that he was on the road. The two of them stopped and went, and the little fat man was because of his body size, Zhou

Tetsu is tired, hungry and exhausted constantly attacking him. barely supported all the way to run. Finally, after about an hour's journey, the two came to a small area on the back of the mountain

In the woods, you can clearly see the village of Lin Village gathered along a small river not far away. At this moment, the forest village is quiet, and the usually lively forest village is quiet and terrible at the moment.

It seems to be a dormant beast. The little fat man didn't see anything, just had some doubts, but Zhou Zhe knew in his heart that if Lin Cun didn't get the news in time and left, he should have suffered at this moment

It's a poisonous hand. The little fat man looked at Zhou Zhe who stopped, and the doubts in his heart turned into all his worries, and he was about to rush forward, but was stopped by Zhou Zhe.

"Find a high place to observe first, if Lin Cun is poisoned, it's useless to run over~" Zhou Zhe's body seemed to tremble in the end, maybe the tragedy of Enron Village has been in Lin Village

It's repeated. The little fat man didn't listen to what Zhou Zhe said at this time, he shook his body and broke free from Zhou Zhe's pull, and rushed to the village, still shouting:

"The wolf is coming, come on!" Zhou Zhe was helpless, and he had no choice but to follow, when the two approached Lin Village one after another, all the worries became a reality, and the strong smell of blood had already explained

everything, even in this late autumn season. There are stumps and broken arms everywhere, and there are traces of being dragged, which should have been done by the giant wolf that the wolf rode just now. The more Zhou Zhe and the little fat man walked into the village, the cooler their hearts became.

Zhou Zhe held on to the wall with one hand, and gasped for breath with the other hand on his chest that was stretched like a bellows, mixed with the air with a strong smell of blood, coupled with the bright red and stump and broken arms, Zhou Zhe vomited again. It's okay to be a little fat man

Not to go anywhere, after seeing this cruel hell, I ran in one direction like crazy. Zhou Zhe also stumbled and walked over.

I saw that the little fat man was just holding a rag and was silent, and the tears on his face were dripping on the rags in his hands, and then mixed with the flesh and blood and fell on the soil, and the sadness was overflowing,

Then with a thud, he fell head-on to the ground, splashing a cloud of dust. Zhou Zhe muttered to himself: "No wonder some corpses are mutilated, wolves are cannibals!"

Zhou Zhe walked over, turned the little fat man's body over, and pinched the middle man hard, hoping that he would wake up, but he didn't want that at such an age, such an encounter would be heartbreaking. Little fat man

When he woke up and saw that it was Zhou Zhe, he buried his head in Zhou Zhe's arms and cried bitterly, tears and snot wet Zhou Zhe's chest, Zhou Zhe just stroked his back, and it was superfluous to say anything at this time. When the crying became smaller, Zhou Zhe said slowly: "Let's go to Longquan Pass together!"

"Hmm!" the little fat man said in a cacophony as soon as he finished answering. The sound of wolves, and the strange croaking of the wolf!

"Not good!" Zhou Zhe reacted suddenly, his brain was running rapidly at the moment, for fear that the little fat man couldn't help but run over and fight hard

"Little fat man, if you want to avenge your parents instead of being killed here, take me to the pigsty and hide in the pit! When the real fire burned the eyebrows, the front wolf just left, and the back wolf came. The little fat man didn't ask much, and pulled Zhou Zhe to the pigsty in his backyard. At this moment, there were no more pigs in the pigsty, and there were still a few bundles of straw piled up next to the low pigsty. It's not too dirty, so I grabbed the pig feces and urine on the ground and wiped it on the little fat man and himself, and wiped it all on his head and face. Then he picked up a bundle of straw and looked at it carefully, and also got into the pigsty, without closing the door. The two of them were covered with grass and nested together.

Zhou Zhe whispered, "Don't make a noise now, can you hide and watch your fate!" The little fat man also understood, and gave Zhou Zhe a firm look.

Quiet, smelly. The sound of breathing. It was as if my heart was going to jump out. It was already cool in autumn, but the clothes on Zhou Zhe's body were already wet with cold sweat, but the sweat on his head was mixed with pig feces and urine dripping on the ground. And the little fat man was also sweating profusely, looking out with red eyes.

After the silence, there was a slow chaotic sound, and with a bang, the door was kicked open, and the footsteps gradually approached, and from time to time the sound of the door being kicked open came. Finally, the footsteps began to approach the pigsty, at this time the two people in the pigsty, their faces were already sweating like rain, but they didn't dare to move, Zhou Zhe finally saw it, nearly two meters tall, wearing a leather helmet on his head, his face was like a human face, his skin was blood-red, his muscles were obvious, his body was strong, he was wearing a gray leather jacket, his inner clothes were similar to silk, his lower body was similar to wearing shaved leather pants, he was wearing boots with steel nails, a short knife was tied to one side of his boots, and he was wearing a large iron wrench on his hand, which should be able to shoot arrows, and he was holding a long-handled machete with a thick back and pointed tip in one hand。 Zhou Zhe forced himself to calm down in the dark, there was no way to enter the pigsty, he could only bet that the noses of the wolf cavalry were confused by the smell of the pigsty, and that their ears were covered by the noise. Bet that this is the last batch of wolf riders to arrive, and seeing that the village has been slaughtered, they will not search carefully. The half-orc with two eyes and round eyes glanced at the empty pigsty, and sure enough, he didn't search carefully, sniffed, and left. Through the cracks, Zhou Zhe saw him go out and lead a group of wolf-like creatures slightly larger than horses to the next house. I saw the saddle sheath fixed on the wolf's back, and the quiver longbow, sure enough. The guess is true.

Although the wolf rode away, the two still did not dare to move. After a while, the noisy sound outside finally turned into a wolf roar and gradually faded away. At this time, Zhou Zhe breathed a sigh of relief. Pulled the straw off his body and pulled the little fat man out of the pigsty. After nesting in the pigsty for nearly an hour, my sense of smell was almost lost, and I was in a cold sweat, and my body was so uncomfortable and uncomfortable. Hurriedly asked the direction of the well, rushed over and was ready to pick up the water to rinse, but found that the bucket had been stuck, and when he looked at it, sure enough, there was a corpse that was pierced through the head by an arrow, and the body was also cut open, and the internal organs were floating on the side, and the well was useless. I had to let the little fat man go to the empty village in the village to find a set of clean clothes, and the two went to the river to wash.
