Chapter 611: Wrestling with the Wolf
This time, Smoke Cigarette wasn't just talking, she really decided to do it and put it into action.
Weapons, weapons? Her hands ran around her body for a while, it was terrible, and she forgot to bring out the self-defense knife. Is it for her to fight the wolf with her bare hands? She doesn't have much confidence in holding a weapon, isn't it embarrassing for her?
Dongfang Hong saw Yanxiang's anxious appearance, and immediately changed her mind, and decided to rush over to see the corpse at her request.
Therefore, he took out the saber at his waist and threw it to the cigarette.
Yanxiang took the saber and was stunned at first. Dongfang Hong also knew her too well, knowing that she had to deal with wolves, but she lacked weapons, so he threw the sword to her.
No way? Dongfanghong is encouraging her to take a sword to fight the wolves? Is he still a man? Really don't want to help her and let her go on her own? She pursed her lips, too unrighteous.
She thought that if she was determined to do this, Dongfanghong would definitely come forward. Who knows, he just lent her the sword.
However, people are not willing to help, what can she do? Helping is love, not helping is reasonable, after all, dealing with wolves is a dangerous thing.
The words have been spoken, and she has no room to take it back, and she is provoked by Dongfanghong's move, and she has no choice but to go.
She shifted her posture and tightened her grip on her sword, about to draw it from its sheath. Suddenly, I heard Dongfang Hong's voice, and the gentle wind blew on my cheeks: "You take this sword to defend yourself, I'll go over and take a look." ”
What the? Smoke Xiang was stunned again, and this huge turn caught her off guard. Fortunately, her mind was fast enough, and then she realized that he was not hard-hearted. It turned out that he was going to give her the sword for self-defense, not for her to use the sword to fight the wolf.
Her heart warmed, but she blurted out worriedly: "You gave me the sword, how can you deal with those beasts unarmed?" ”
That's right, she called those wolves beasts, and they were so hateful!
As soon as the words fell, without waiting for Dongfanghong to react, she couldn't help but say that she wanted to stuff the sword back to Dongfanghong.
Where was Dongfang Hong willing to take back the sword, and insisted on giving the sword to her: "You take it." Don't worry, my martial arts are more than enough to deal with these beasts. Unknowingly, he was influenced by her, and he also called the wolf a brute.
You must know that he once singled out dozens of martial arts warriors, and they were all unscathed, and it was not easy to deal with these beasts.
Beasts with low IQ are always easier to deal with than humans with high IQ.
But Dongfang Hong forgot that the group of beasts in front of him was not a low-level beast, it was an extremely cunning wolf. It has extraordinary speed, energy, and energy, as well as a very well-developed sense of smell.
Wolves are the most greedy and ferocious animals, and wherever they pass, they eat all the animals they can eat. In order to devour their prey, they can keep tracking for dozens of miles.
Fierce, cruel and cunning by nature, the wolf is very fast, and all kinds of wild and domestic animals, and even people, are the targets of its attacks and prey. They usually move in groups and are able to hunt animals larger than it.
For example, when a wolf preys on a deer, it adopts a multi-way pursuit method, and when the deer encounters an obstacle and has to turn during the run, the wolves on both sides just outflank it, even if the deer runs faster than the wolf, it is difficult to escape the pursuit of the wolves.
This is the wolf pack tactic, attacking in all directions and blossoming on all sides. Attacking the east and attacking the west, covering each other, feints and adds the main attack, attacking if you can, and pinning down the troops if you can't attack, so that people can't take care of the head and tail, and the east can't take care of the west. This move of the wolf pack is more powerful than the tactic of concentrating superior forces and breaking each one.
And now, the wolves did not take the initiative to attack Yanxiang and Dongfanghong, just because they had filled their stomachs. If the two of them don't know the time to provoke the haul of the wolves, the wolves will fight with them.
It is extremely dangerous to fight a wolf with bare hands.
Of course, Dongfang Hong is very confident, and with his martial arts, there is no problem in dealing with these wolves.
Although Dongfang Hong said so, Yanxiang was still not at ease, and he had to put the sword before him anyway. It's just that Dongfang Hong's movements were much faster than her, and she had already picked up a branch the thickness of an eggplant from the ground, and rushed towards the corpse with agility.
Yanxiang insisted on returning the sword to Dongfang Hong, followed closely behind him, and shouted as he walked: "Stop!" ”、
Dongfanghong didn't pay any attention to her, and just rushed forward.
The wolves, who were resting when they were full, suddenly smelled danger. One by one, they became alert, and let out a different howl than before, like an alarm, and like a team assembly order.
More than a dozen big wolves squatting on the ground all stood up at once, their long tails all flat, and they were all bowed on the string, ready to cull at any time.
Dongfanghong rushed forward with a branch in his hand, and quickly distanced himself from the cigarette.
Yanxiang was holding the unsheathed sword and following Dongfanghong, but he was thrown away. She saw that Dongfang Hong had gotten closer and closer to the wolves, and those wolves attacked. She couldn't help but wonder, should she continue to move forward, or go backwards?
Theoretically, she should go forward and help Dongfanghong deal with those wolves. But in fact, she felt that it would be difficult for her to kill wolves, although she was full of hatred for wolves. They bite people alive and swallow them, and they should be killed.
After weighing her ability, she still gave up, and it would be a disadvantage to let her come forward. She believed that Dongfang Hong would be completely sure to deal with those brutes, anyway, if she was a senior brother, she would be able to do it in a few moments. Thought
Think, she still shouldn't drag Dongfang Hong back.
She didn't have the idea of moving forward, nor did she have the intention of retreating, so she simply stood in place, ready to watch Dongfanghong fight the wolf.
Under the winter sun, those murderous wolves all stared at Dongfang Hong with bloodthirsty eyes.
At first, Dongfang Hong simply wanted to go over and see if the corpse was Niu Kelian. He walked forward and stepped into the territory of the wolves, which would inevitably cause the wolves to hate and attack.
He looked at the wolf with a fierce gaze and dragged a broom-like tail, and smiled coldly. Just these brutes, want to fight him?
Make them ace in minutes!
Self-confidence is not conceited, knowing oneself and knowing the other side can win all battles. He glanced at the wolves and saw a wolf with a thick white winter coat, a large physique, and strong muscles. He made a judgment that this should be the wolf king.
The wolf king is the leader of the wolf pack and the hub of communication between the wolves. He planned to kill the wolf king first, and the other wolves would be much easier to deal with. He set a goal and had a plan in mind, to kill the wolf king and kill the other wolves.
His gaze was fixed on the wolf king. I saw that the wolf king wolf had slightly bent its hind legs, stretched out its front legs forward, and put on a downward swooping posture, with a faint fierce light in its two eyes.
Dongfang Hong performed light skills, jumped forward, raised the branch in his hand to aim at the wolf king, and stabbed at the wolf king.
The unexpected happened.
The wolves let out a hoarse howl, and when Dongfang Hong attacked the wolf king, they made a prediction and dispersed in an instant.
It is conceivable that Dongfanghong did not hit it for the first time. He was a little surprised.
In the first year of Xingde, Hong Gaode proclaimed himself emperor, established the Great Western Kingdom, and set the capital of Fengcheng. In the early days of the establishment of the regime, the surrounding countries were eyeing the Great Western Kingdom and provoked wars for no reason. Before the expedition, Xu Guifei, the mother of Xigong, was 8 months pregnant. The emperor proposed an edict, if the prince was born, he would be named Hong Chengye, and the prince would be established, and if he was born a princess, he would be crowned Princess Changyu.
After Emperor Hong left the palace, Queen Xia made a plan to let Xu Guifei slip the fetus, who knows, the sky did not fulfill her wish, and the fetus in Xu Guifei's womb was born, and it actually survived.
"Your Majesty has already doted on Concubine Xu, and now, she has given birth to a prince again, and I see that our master and queen throne will not be able to be kept."
"Isn't it? Listening to the palace maid in the West Palace, the prince was born white and fat, very cute, his face resembled His Majesty, there was a righteousness between his eyebrows, and he must be a good emperor when he grows up. ”
This is the little palace maid in the queen's palace whispering in private.
Even if they don't talk about it, the Empress Xia knows that if she doesn't try to get rid of the prince, I'm afraid that life won't be better in the future.
She immediately summoned her elder brother Xiangye and Chu Xiang, the head of the imperial guard, to discuss countermeasures. They plotted to burn down the West Palace, which was carried out by General Chu.
At the critical moment, General Chu gave up the idea of harming the prince and exchanged his own son for the prince's exit from the palace.
Xu Guifei cried and cried, turned her heart sideways, picked up the hairpin, and used the tip of the hairpin to tattoo the word "heaven" on the prince's left shoulder. The stab is in the child's body, the pain is in the mother's heart, and after the stabbing is finished, Xu Guifei's painful liver and intestines are broken. She trembled and hung a jade pendant on the crown prince, which was given by the emperor himself, and there is only one in the world today.
Concubine Xu Guifei kowtowed to Chu Xiang, and said with tears in her eyes, "General Chu, please accept my three bows, your great kindness and great virtue, this palace will repay it in the next life." ”
"Niangniang, you can't help it, please get up ...... quickly" As he spoke, he heard footsteps outside, General Chu picked up the prince and hurriedly fled through the side door.
Xu Guifei fainted.
The person who came was the imperial doctor Feng Nanyang. Legend has it that this person was originally a man in the rivers and lakes, and his nickname was the fortune teller. He can pinch and calculate, not only has excellent medical skills, but also has extraordinary martial arts. He took away General Chu's son, performed light skills, shuttled freely in the palace, easily got rid of the pursuit of the palace guards, and left the city safely.
After Xia, he ordered people to burn down the West Palace, and Xu Guifei and a cadre were buried in the fire. During the inventory of the body, it was found that the body of a baby was missing. Plus General Chu Xiang's whereabouts are unknown. Empress Xia and Xiangye concluded that the prince was most likely taken away by Chu Xiang. So, Empress Xia secretly sent people to hunt down and kill General Chu Xiang.
In the fourth year of Xingde, the emperor returned triumphantly.
Xia Hou was shrewd and capable, and kept this matter a secret. Emperor Hong didn't believe that Xu Guifei really died in an accident. He often dreamed of the crown prince, and he has been sending people to investigate the matter secretly, but he has not been able to find out the truth, Chu Xiang disappeared, and Feng Nanyang also disappeared.
In the fifth year of Xingde, the queen gave birth to a son, and Emperor Hong named him Hong Cheng'an. The queen thought to herself, the emperor obviously did not have high hopes for this son. Empress Xia thought to herself, even if the emperor delayed issuing an edict and appointing a new crown prince, Emperor Rihong would die, and the throne would be her son's sooner or later. However, she still had some concerns, twenty-four years ago, she sent someone to hunt down and kill Chu Xiang, Chu Xiang was seriously injured and died, but the prince did not know who rescued him.
For more than 20 years, there has been no news of the prince. If the crown prince is still alive, then he will be the biggest threat to Hong Chengan's succession to the throne. Besides, once this matter is revealed, she and Xiangye will definitely be in trouble.
Emperor Hong Gaode reigned for 24 years, he worked hard, knew people well, the country was strong, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. Emperor Hong grew old and missed his lost prince more and more, and finally fell ill.
Knowing that Emperor Hong was ill, Feng Nanyang sneaked into the palace to see the emperor.
"Bold Feng Nanyang, you are guilty, you have been hiding for more than 20 years, and I have been sending people to look for you and General Chu for more than 20 years. Do you know about Concubine Xu? Emperor Hong cried with joy when he saw him.
"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty. When the queen wanted to burn down the West Palace, the minister arrived after learning about it, and the minister came one step late, and the prince had been taken away by General Chu. In a panic, Zhongchen rescued General Chu's son and handed him over to a foreign master to raise. For the past 24 years, I have been secretly searching for the whereabouts of the prince, but I have never found it. The ministers have the great trust of the emperor. Feng Nanyang was full of guilt.
"What a queen. Over the years, I have seen her keep to herself and teach the emperor carefully, but I never thought that she would be so vicious. I'm going to send her to the cold! Emperor Hong gritted his teeth angrily and slapped the imperial case.
"Your Majesty, you can't do it. There is no evidence, if the emperor does this, it will definitely cause turmoil in the court and panic among the people. Feng Nanyang persuaded.
"I can not pursue the queen's guilt first, but the prince can't be left behind, and I must find him back." The emperor was resolute, calmed down for a while and sat on the dragon chair.
"Your Majesty, look for the prince openly, and the prince will inevitably be framed. It's better to visit secretly. Feng Nanyang suggested.
Emperor Hong painted a portrait of a twenty-four-year-old man according to his own appearance, handed it over to Feng Nanyang, appointed Feng Nanyang as the minister of the Qin Mission, and gave Shang Fang a sword.
"Emperor, where are you?" Emperor Hong sighed.
In the twenty-fifth year of Xingde, the country of the Great West was peaceful and peaceful, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.
Wunan Mountain in the northwest of Fengcheng, the imperial capital, after the heavy rain, the sky is exceptionally clear, the sun has tilted westward, and the clear blue sky has disappeared. In the afterglow of the sunset, the mountains still maintain the freshness and coolness after the rain, just like "after the new rain in the empty mountains, the weather is late in autumn." The realm.
Wunan Mountain, a mountain full of bamboo, a boundless sea of bamboo. At the highest place on the top of the mountain, there is a secluded and elegant dwelling, all made of bamboo, divided into two layers up and down, hanging a plaque, with four big characters "Wunan Villa" written on it. There is a large yard in front of the bamboo house, and the yard is planted with exotic grasses. When the breeze blows, you can smell the aroma of flowers and plants.
"Senior brother, you have to stay a few more days when you come back this time, we haven't seen each other for two years. I heard that everyone in the rivers and lakes calls you the son of a fan. A delicate-faced girl stood in the courtyard, wearing a white dress, no fat powder, but it was fresh and refined, like a budding white lotus, only to hear the girl's voice was extremely sweet: "Your martial arts are so powerful, I have your protection, and I am no longer afraid of encountering thieves and gangsters." ”
"I don't like to listen to flattery. I usually tell you to practice martial arts diligently, but you don't practice seriously. Senior brother Chu Tiankuo gently patted the head of the cigarette with the fan in his hand, put on a straight face, and pretended to be serious: "If you meet a bad person in the future, I don't care about you." ”
"Hmph, you don't care about the little junior sister." Yan Xiang pursed his lips, glared at Chu Tiankuo, turned his face away, and pretended to be angry.
