At this time, the sound of stakes striking the gates was heard.

I looked intently, and found that although the cast-iron gate was firm, the earth and stone in the right corner had already shown signs of loosening, and I was afraid that in a few days, the gate would not be broken, and the wall would be knocked down.

But in this situation, let alone that I have no decree, and even if there is an edict, the gates of the city cannot be opened......

My mind moved, and I asked, "This old man, is there any other way out of the city?" ”

The old man nodded and said, "Yes, go straight west from here, there is a wolf's tooth mountain, the mountain is not high, and it will be turned over in an hour." After going down the mountain, you will see a river, and across the river is a continuous mountain range, passing through the mountain range, it becomes a wheat city. ”

Xuanyuan Chen's mind moved slightly, and he asked, "It sounds like walking through the mountains is closer than taking the official road." ”

The old man nodded, and said, "That's nature, you have to walk the official road for a day and a night, if you pass through the mountains, six or seven hours will pass, and the mountain range is very high, not only can you see the wheat city, but also the battlefield outside the city." But even so, no one dared to go through it all these years, because ....... ”

Xuanyuan Chen said, "Because of what? Uncle said come and hear ......"

The old man sighed and said, "Because, there are many white-eyed wolves in that mountain range, they are brutal and abnormal, and they all move in groups, but I am afraid that they will go in and not get out......"

It turns out that this is the case, the wolves are already fierce, let alone the herds.

But......

It's noon at this time, so speed up and get through the mountains before it gets dark, I'm afraid there won't be a big problem......

"Little girl, do you want to go through?" Xuanyuan Chen asked.

I thought about it for a moment and nodded firmly.

He didn't say much, he said a little wait for me, and then he rode away, and after a cup of tea, he came back with a package that was not big or small, and said "let's go" and went first.

We soon reached the foot of the Wolf's Tooth Mountain, where there was a temple halfway up the mountain, so we tied our horses to the old tree behind the temple and walked to the top of the mountain.

Both of us have a kung fu foundation, and it is very easy to climb a hill, and it only takes a long time to climb down the mountain and walk to the river that the old man said.

Although it is called a river, the river surface is not wide, and with the severe drought in the past two years, the river surface is only a few dozen meters wide.

Xuanyuan Chen immediately went to cut down a small tree, pulled out the soft sword coiled around his waist and used internal force to straighten it, breaking the tree into three pieces, and then throwing it in the air......

The "Whoosh ......" segment is thrown away in an arc.

"Let's ......"

He curled his lips and smiled, and jumped up in the air with his arms around me, and took a few steps in mid-air, and when he was about to fall into the water, the piece of wood fell right down. He took advantage of his strength to leap up and throw a piece of wood at the same time.

A few times like this, it just landed on the opposite bank.

Looking at the time, it must be too late, and he was afraid that he would encounter wolves in the evening, so he took a simple map and compass from his baggage, pointed forward in the right direction, and the two of us strode forward.

Before the Langya Mountain belonged to a small mountain, usually there are always people climbing the mountain for outings, and going up and down the mountain are all stepping out of a road, but here it is different.

At first, there was still some faint road, and the further you went to the top of the mountain, the denser the trees became, and the ground was full of thick rotten leaves, and some large trees had horizontal branches and vertical slits, always blocking the road ahead. Fortunately, Xuanyuan Chen bought the compass in advance, otherwise, I am afraid that I will get lost.

There were many trees in the mountains and the air was good, and the two of us walked forward for an hour, and we were not tired at all. Seeing that the road was getting steeper and steeper, and there were more weeds on the ground, Xuanyuan Chen took out three coarse cloth sachets from the package, gave me two, and tied one to his waist.

"What is this?" I asked.

He curled his lips and smiled and replied, "This is an insect repellent herb, and with it, you will be less bitten by mosquitoes." ”

I nodded, and hung it around my waist.

He took out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve pocket, poured out two of them and gave them to me, saying that they were realgar pills, and that there were snakes and insects in the mountains, and that they had taken snake repellent.

After I took it, he went to the side and cut back two pieces of long sticks of about one meter, kept one for himself, handed me one, and said, "I will use it to beat the grass left and right, if there are snakes and insects, they will be frightened away, if they are tired, they will borrow a force, if they are tired, if they are tired, they will ......"

He chuckled and said, "Then call Brother Yu, and I'll carry you on my back." ”

I snorted, took the stick and hit the grass twice.

He chuckled.

When everything was ready, he went ahead, knocking left and right on the way through the bushes, and occasionally a frightened rabbit and bird ran away from the grass, and further on, a young sika deer ran away.

In this way, after nearly two hours of walking forward, the sun set on the horizon, and after the sky was full of color, the sky began to turn dark.

The two of us were afraid of encountering wolves, so they were all hurrying under our feet, and after walking for half an hour, it was dark, but fortunately, the moonlight was good today, and a round of missing moon hung high in the sky, so that we could not see the road clearly.

The hiking road was very exhausting, and the air became thinner and thinner the further we went to the top of the mountain, and the two of us rode all the way, and we had barely eaten for a day, and we were both a little tired, and when we saw a stream in front of us, we walked over and washed our faces, and sat down to prepare for a little rest.

"Now, here's for you."

took out the beef jerky from the pouch he carried, and just as he wanted to put it in his mouth, Xuanyuan Chen escaped from the package and sent it over.

I looked down and saw that it was a steaming chicken leg.

I was surprised and asked, "How can it still be hot?" ”

He curled his lips and smiled, "I can't tell you that if you learned it, I have no secrets about your royal brother and brother, how can I coax you to be my princess." ”

I snorted, took a bite of the big drumstick, and when I chewed, I realized that he was actually eating my beef jerky.

"Hey, did you bring a chicken leg?" I poked his arm with my finger.

He chewed on the hard tendons in the beef jerky a few times and said, "Well, I don't like it very much, so I only brought one with me." ”

After speaking, he took another beef jerky, and when he saw that I didn't eat it, he leaned over and asked, "What's the matter, little girl, aren't the chicken legs delicious?" Still, you're tired of eating chicken legs, why don't you bring you duck legs or lamb legs next time? ”

The moonlight is like a sprinkle, and he likes the stream next to him, and his bright eyes look at it, printing my reflection.

I opened my eyes and took a bite of the chicken leg, not knowing what it was like for a while.

The night in the mountains was very quiet, I slowly finished eating the hot chicken leg in my hand, and Xuanyuan Chen also ate beef jerky.

He took out the simple map, used the compass to estimate the direction, and then pointed to the mountain family and said, "We still have more than an hour to reach the top of the mountain, and the wolves generally like to be active in the middle of the night, so let's go and try to get down the mountain as soon as possible." ”

I nodded, packed up my things, filled the water bag, and got up to leave, but was stopped by Xuanyuan Chen.

"Oops." His eyes darkened, and he turned his hand and pulled out the silver disc dragon soft sword from his waist.

I also quickly shook my hand and slid the ink down and held it in my hand to press the mechanism.

"Choking ......", the sword body popped out three feet, and the sword qi was as cold as Qiuhong.

I have abnormal eyes, and I look at it intently, and I secretly say bad in my heart.

I thought that there would be a dozen or twenty wolves in the mountains at most, but I know now that it was too simple.

Between the trees, in the grass, not far away, far away, there were dense green dots of light, and those were the eyes of wolves......

This is as simple as ten heads and twenty heads, and this must be at least a thousand heads.

No wonder no one dares to leave here, there are so many wolves, come in to feed the wolves!

I looked sideways at him and asked, "Hey, didn't you say that wolves like midnight activities?" ”

Xuanyuan Chen nodded and said, "Under normal circumstances, wolves are used to midnight activities, but seeing that the moonlight is good today, maybe they come out to see the moon." ”

I snorted, when, and still in the mood to joke.

I looked around and found that the place where the two of us were was a huge clearing, and there was no foot on the left and right hundred meters, even if I jumped up with light effort, I was afraid that I would also fall into the wolves.

"Whew......"

Just thinking about it, I heard a wolf howl from far to near, and the quiet wolves in the distance suddenly began to stir, and several big wolves with white fur in their ears jumped on the spot, swooped out five or six meters away, and stood not far from us.

"Whew......"

Another wolf howl came, and many more wolves gathered from all directions, and the wolves that had come closer were a little closer.

I was a little nervous, but when I saw the wolves gathering more and more, I calmed down.

Fish Diving ......

Mai Cheng is all within reach, and the matter of breaking the wings of Baili Tianqi is within reach, I don't want to die like this......
