Chapter Forty-Eight: The Danger of the Snowy Mountains
"Lady, I'm so tired!"
The night is deep, the clouds in the night sky are sneering, the moonlight is unknown, the shadows of the trees in the forest are heavy, quiet and silent, and even the sound of trampling on the dead branches is particularly harsh, not to mention Xiaobai's unconcealed complaint.
Zhuang Meiyan was so frightened that she hurriedly pressed his mouth and coaxed: "Don't make a noise, there are hungry wolves in the forest, let's go home." ”
Xiaobai obediently closed his mouth.
There was a crisp sound in the forest, and Zhuang Meiyan's heart, which was already hanging in the air, jumped into his throat like a swing. Closely following them was the tall and thin soldier, Chu Yifan's cronies, the man with a grim expression quickly tightened his saber and slowly approached the direction from which the sound came from.
Zhuang Meiyan subconsciously hugged Xiaobai's arm, although he pretended to be calm on his face, his legs were already weak, and he was just holding on. Xiaobai suddenly hugged her waist, and put her lips close to her ear a little ambiguously, and between breaths, it was itchy and unbearable.
Zhuang Meiyan was worried in her heart, and her eyes were firmly fixed on the movements of the tall and thin soldier, so she didn't care about Xiaobai's naughtiness. Suddenly a gnat-like whisper sounded in my ears.
"Lady, he's a bad person, he's not trying to take us home. ”
Zhuang Meiyan's heart was shocked, she looked at Xiaobai in disbelief, her eyes widened, and she said with her mouth: "Don't talk nonsense." ”
"Lady. Xiaobai also seemed to know that he couldn't let that person hear, so he lowered his voice very low, blinked his big eyes, and said seriously: "Lady, you see that the moon is in the west, we are now going north, and our home is in the south, so if we go on like this, we will only get farther and farther away from home." ”
Zhuang Meiyan glanced at the crescent moon looming in the clouds, and then looked up at the outpost on the hill, which was as small as an ant, and it was indeed to the south of him. So, this means that they have crossed the border and are walking towards the boundary of Wuyang Kingdom.
The heart that had been throbbing suddenly sank to the bottom, colder than this cold spring night. The human heart is unpredictable, but she didn't expect it to be so sinister. In this way, could it be that Chu Yifan wanted to give them to Wu Yangguo? But why?
Zhuang Meiyan glanced at Xiaobai beside him, his heartbeat intensified, did Brother Chu see something?
Could it be that those people are here for Xiaobai?
Zhuang Meiyan became more and more undecided, and she watched uneasily as the tall, thin soldier gently pushed aside the bushes and carefully examined the surroundings. She whispered a few words to Xiaobai, Xiaobai nodded again and again, her eyes were bright, and she was slightly excited, as if she had heard something very interesting and interesting.
A night bird flew in the bushes, and the tall and thin man came out of the bushes, raised his head and said to Zhuang Meiyan: "It's okay, it's a bird." ”
His pupils suddenly constricted, and he said sharply, "What about him?"
Zhuang Meiyan was stunned and said, "What?"
The tall and thin man quickly swept past her, looked left and right, and said in a deep voice, "What about the fool?"
Zhuang Meiyan suddenly realized and said, "I probably went to relieve my hands." ”
The tall and thin man lowered his face, his shaved eyebrows gathered together, and said coldly: "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, you wait here, I'll look for him." ”
The tall and thin man drew his saber, and with the tip of the knife pushed through the bushes, looking for it. Seeing the tall and thin man gradually walking away, Zhuang Meiyan beckoned lightly to a tree hole next to him. It turned out that she asked Xiaobai to hide secretly in the tree hole and took the opportunity to take away the tall and thin man, so she beckoned Xiaobai to come out.
For a long time, there was no reaction in the tree hole, and it was still quiet.
Zhuang Meiyan couldn't help but wonder, and looked down into the tree hole, which was empty.
What about Xiaobai?!
There was a sound from behind the bushes next to it, and the branches shook slightly. Zhuang Meiyan had the courage to push aside the bushes, and immediately saw two people rolling in one place silently, pinching each other desperately, and the person who was pressed to the bottom with a red face was not Xiaobai.
I saw Xiao Bai desperately grabbing the man's two hands, and a snow-bright dagger moved between the two of them, and the tip of the knife was carrying the cold light, which made people tremble. Xiao Baiyan saw that his strength was weak, and the tip of the knife gradually tilted towards his chest, getting closer and closer.
Suddenly, the man snorted, rolled his eyes, tilted his head, and fainted on Xiaobai's chest. Xiao Bai gasped for breath again and again, and it took a lot of effort to push the man off of him. Zhuang Meiyan stood aside, still holding the "murder weapon" in her hand, a stone still stained with blood, if she hadn't mustered up the courage to hit the back of the guy's head with a stone just now, it would probably be Xiaobai lying there.
Xiaobai took Zhuang Meiyan's hand in the past and said timidly: "Lady." ”
At the same time, she broke her fingers and threw the stone away, Zhuang Meiyan came to her senses, and couldn't help but fall into Xiaobai's arms and cry.
"I, I killed someone, I killed someone! ”
The experience of this day and night made her fearful, either hungry wolves, or pursuers, and finally even people who thought they were friends would frame them.
"Xiaobai, what should we do?" Zhuang Meiyan only felt a burst of despair.
Xiao Bai gently hugged her and didn't say a word, although she knew that Xiao Bai would not give her any meaningful advice, but she still grabbed his shirt like a man in the water grabbing a straw. Perhaps, at this moment, the only one who can be relied on is this demented teenager, at least, he won't harm her.
"Whew!"
A sudden spark burst out of their surroundings and exploded in mid-air, illuminating the small area around them, the tall canopy and the low bushes all illuminated clearly. Zhuang Meiyan raised her head and looked at the purple fireworks staring at the black canopy in confusion, which lasted for a long time.
Zhuang Meiyan didn't know that something as beautiful as fireworks had another function, that is, signals.
She suddenly felt a pain in the back of her head, her vision blurred, and she immediately fainted.
This is a low valley in the Qiyang Mountains, surrounded by undulating mountains, and this is where the border between the Wuyang Kingdom and the Wushuang Kingdom meet. Strictly speaking, this valley can be regarded as the ground of Wuyang, but this is a deep mountain and old forest, if ordinary villagers occasionally enter, no one will pay attention to it. The border between the two countries is too long for patrols to be in place.
However, the two teams of centaurs standing in the trough at this moment are not ordinary Orion families, but two teams of men and horses with knives and guns in their hands. The sky was faint, and I could already see these two groups of men and horses, one wearing yellow armor and the other wearing black armor, which was actually the encounter between the armies of Wushuang Kingdom and Wuyang Kingdom.
The two teams were fighting, blood all over the ground, and it was extremely tragic.
Chu Yifan clenched the long knife in both hands and confronted one of the generals on the other side. The general did not dare to slack off at all, put down a battle posture, but said hatefully in his mouth: "The southerners are really cunning, since the commander you said that you would make a deal with us, but you set up an ambush here. It's ridiculous that you are too greedy, the little fox wants to eat the big mountain wolf, don't forget that we have three times as many people as you, and General Wan Yan Jing will soon come back to reinforce us. ”
He deliberately shouted these words out loud, of course Chu Yifan knew what his purpose was, and immediately sneered: "Then wait until you have the life to live until that time to make a conclusion." ”
After saying that, he yelled and pounced. The general was very cunning, blindly wrestling with him, and could not solve it for a while.
There were many people in Wuyang Kingdom, and the Wushuang Kingdom was the first to ambush, and the morale was strong, and the two sides fought very fiercely.
Suddenly, a soldier of Wu Yangguo suddenly let out an exclamation, pointed to the hill diagonally opposite, opened his mouth wide, and looked frightened, obviously seeing something extremely terrifying. The peerless warrior who fought with him raised his knife without hesitation and slashed at it, but the Wuyang soldier didn't know how to dodge, and before he died, he pointed his finger in that direction and roared with his last strength.
"The wolf god is resurrected!"
