Volume 1 The Return of the Old Man Chapter 122 The King of Han was taken away by a wolf
Han Changdui galloped on his horse and took the lead in breaking into the yellow sand.
Yao Qi frowned slightly, feeling a little ominous, but he had to rush forward, so he had to look at Helian Wenyuan and follow closely.
Where the yellow sand is dispersed, the sound of horses' hooves is faintly like a drum, and the ground shakes slightly.
The high beacon loomed in the yellow sand, the gate of the fifth beacon fort was wide open, and a line of garrisons swarmed out of the fort.
Like a bloody sun, Han Changdui saw Xu Xiangli at a glance, his face was full of anxiety, and his eyes were desperate.
His heart sank, since it was not a siege by the Turks, why did Xu Xiang look like he was half dead, he hurriedly greeted him, and asked suspiciously: "Officer Xu, what's wrong, what's wrong." ”
Xu Xiangli saw Han Changdui, as if he had seen a relative, he held his hand tightly, and was so excited that he almost burst into tears, and even his voice was trembling, full of despair: "Brother Han, don't mention it, King Han, King Han was taken away by a wolf." ”
"What." These words were like a basin of cold water poured head-on, pouring Han Changdui into the cold, he almost fell off the horse, his hand unconsciously clenched the reins, and trembled slightly: "King Han, how did you come here, and how could you be taken away by wolves." ”
Xu Xiangli wanted to cry even more, how did he know that this scourge would come to the fifth beacon, and he was clamoring to hunt, why was he so unlucky, he was bitten by a wolf as soon as he went out.
Why is this wolf so evil, so many guards don't take it with him, but he just took the king of Han.
Could it be that the skin and flesh that are pampered and raised are more fragrant than those of rough men?
He trembled his lips and said tremblingly: "King Han said that he wanted to hunt, so he let the wolf take it away." ”
Isn't it just hunting, if he had front and back eyes, he knew that there was today, he would have grabbed some live creatures and put them in the fort, so that King Han could hunt enough.
He Cai was riding on a horse, he was already dizzy by the violent bumps of the horse, he rushed out from behind Xu Xiangli, and when he saw Han Changdui, he immediately cried: "Lord Han, Lord Han, Your Highness, Your Highness was taken away by a wolf." ”
Yao Qi came over on a horse, just when she heard this, her legs were weak, she rolled off the horse, rolled all over the sand, looked desperate, and looked at the sky speechlessly.
What the hell, King Han was taken away by a wolf, this wolf's taste is heavy enough, don't pick your mouth.
Han Changwan grabbed He Cai's collar and shouted fiercely: "How long have you been walking, which direction are you going, why don't you follow." ”
He Caiwa suddenly burst into tears: "Just left, to the west, Mohe Yanqi went." ”
Han Changwan was puzzled, they had just come out of Mohe Yanmo, why hadn't they met each other.
His face was gloomy, if the king of Han was really bitten to death by a wolf, the court was afraid of turmoil, and if the court was turbulent, the Turks who had been waiting for a long time would not be able to bear it.
He said calmly: "Officer Xu, please send me a few soldiers, and I will chase the King of Han." ”
Xu Xiangli was overjoyed, and asked him to put aside the fifth beacon and chase after the king of Han who was taken away by the wolf, he really couldn't rest assured.
He nodded solemnly, beckoned six soldiers over, and said in a deep voice: "There is Brother Lao Han, my brother's net worth and life are all tied to Brother Han's hands, if the King of Han is lost, my brother's life is probably enough." ”
Han Changwan nodded: "Xu Shuguan rest assured. He turned his head to look at Yao Qi, raised his whip and said, "Let's go." ”
As soon as the words of refusal came to his mouth, Yao Qi suddenly thought that the face of the king of Hades was stripped of his pants by the king of Han, as if the face of the king of Hades would be embarrassed every time he met the king of Han, so thinking about it, it was better to go with him.
Maybe if you find the King of Han, you can also see the shameful face of the King of Hades, killing two birds with one stone.
Han Changwan explained a few more words to Helian Wenyuan, and then moved all the water, grain, grass, salt and other things on the high cart to the horseback, grabbed He Cai's collar with his backhand, and glared fiercely: "Lead the way, if you can't find the King of Han, I will skin you alive." ”
He Cai trembled and bumped on the horseback, flicked the horsewhip wildly, galloped the horse, and was almost turned down several times.
Yao Qi had never seen Han Changdui so out of shape, she sighed helplessly and shook her head, it seemed that he was really in a hurry.
She urged the horse to cling to He Cai, and straightened his body from time to time.
He Cai smiled gratefully, he regretted it, why did he want to go out hunting with the king of Han, now it's okay, if the king of Han has three long and two short, it will be cheaper for him to be flayed alive.
The yellow sand flew behind them, and the red sun chased after the back of the man and slowly slid towards the horizon.
The direction He Cai took really deviated from the route taken by Han Changdui when he returned to the Fifth Beacon, Mohe Yanqi was extremely desolate, and if there was a slight deviation, it might be staggered and difficult to meet.
The road was littered with whitish wolf dung, and occasionally a half paw print, which was blown by the wind through the floating sand, and in an instant the traces of the paw prints were obscured.
The group followed the whitish wolf dung and the looming paw prints, going deeper and deeper into Mohe Yanmoraine, and getting farther and farther away from the fifth beacon.
After chasing for half an hour, the looming paw prints suddenly became dense and clear, and the wolf dung was piled up one after another, some of them were cracked and white, and some were still steaming.
The leading garrison turned over and dismounted, lay on the ground and listened and watched, suddenly turned back and shouted: "My lord, there are wolves here. ”
Han Changdu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he raised his hand high: "This place is the territory of wolves, be careful." ”
Everyone looked stunned, although they felt frightened, but they didn't dare to slow down, so they had to chase after them cautiously.
After galloping for a while, there was a buzzing sound in the distance, and under the bleak sun, swarms of mosquitoes swirled on the sandy slope not far away, gathering and scattering, scattering and gathering.
On the yellow sandy slope was a pile of disheveled wreckage, the undulation of the bones was spectacular, and it was a strong camel that fell here, looking at this huge body, this camel was in the prime of life.
Mosquitoes buzzed around the camels, sometimes falling and sometimes flying.
Everyone urged them to check, only to see that there were many scratches and bite marks on the camel's body, and a large hole in the throat was bitten by sharp teeth, and the blood congealed at the mouth of the hole, sticking the messy hairs together.
The camel's belly had been hollowed out, and scattered entrails were scattered on the sand, and the hump had dried up, leaving only a huge crumble shell. The dark red of the blood had solidified, and the flesh had taken on a dull purplish red.
It seems that the camel has been dead for some time.
Yao Qi followed behind Han Changdu, and at a glance saw that among the camel's viscera, there were maggots with white flowers twisting and wriggling, entangled and rolling together, she vomited, and the rancid smell suddenly surged into her nostrils and throat, and she was busy covering her mouth and nose.
The smell is spicy.
Han Changdui saw the paw prints and feces near the wreckage, and said lightly: "It's the unique gray wolf in the moraine, it has been surrounded and suppressed, and the inside is empty." ”
Hearing this, Yao Qi's mouth was full of bitterness, remembering that in a book he saw in his previous life, it was said that the gray wolf was extremely drought-tolerant and hungry, reflexive and good at ambushing, and was known as the king of the desert.
She swallowed her saliva fiercely and twitched the corners of her mouth: "Childe, King Han was taken away by this thing, can he still live?"
Han Changwan also felt not very optimistic, his face became more gloomy and ugly, and he shook his head: "I don't know, let's chase after it." ”
The group chased for a while, only to see that on the loose sand, the paw prints became more and more messy and dense, and the wreckage that had been eaten away gradually increased, and among the scattered gerbil remains, the wreckage of a horse was particularly eye-catching.
The flesh of the wreckage had been gnawed clean, with only a few shriveled pieces of flesh hanging from it.
Dark red blood seeped into the sand and dried up in patches.
This is not like Mohe Yanmo, but it is a more real Moheyan moraine, a purgatory-like place on earth.
The twilight swept across the sky, and the sky gradually darkened, and the heat left by the direct sunlight during the day was forced back by the cold and slowly dissipated.
The undulating sand slope flies by in the corner of the eye, the whirring wind is over the ear, and from time to time there is the sound of rustling through the sound, and the eye wind is slightly wrong, you can see the ghostly black shadow flying quickly between the sand slopes.
These dark shadows flew so fast that they disappeared before they had time to look closely, making people think that they were hallucinating.
The horse's reaction was very keen, and in the face of such a scene, it was a little more restless, flicking its tail and hesitating slightly, and from time to time it raised its head and neighed a few times.
Yao Qi glanced back, forced down the anxiety in his stomach, and quickly caught up with Han Changdui: "Childe, there are wolves following us." ”
Han Changdui also noticed it, and when he turned around, there were always four gray wolves chasing after him not far away.
He nodded solemnly: "Fight them off first." ”
"Hmm." Yao Qi nodded, urging the horse to take a few steps forward.
He raised his voice and ordered the garrisons: "You go first, and Ah Qi and I will fight back the wolves." ”
The garrison marched forward one after another, but the speed was not fast, and only a short distance was opened.
Yao Qi and Han Changdui glanced at each other, released the reins, turned around in unison on horseback, and pulled their bows and arrows.
"Whoosh" twice, and the two crossbow arrows glowed with cold light, straight into the wolves behind them.
Both of them were extremely skilled in archery, and the crossbow arrows pierced through the gray wolf's eyebrows, and the two gray wolves fell to the sand without even barking.
The remaining two gray wolves let out a few low howls before scattering and hiding behind the sandy slope not far away.
There were two more "whoosh" sounds, and two crossbow arrows chased after the gray wolf, one in the abdomen and the other in the neck, blood gushed out, and the gray wolf fell to the ground, convulsed a few times, and then stopped moving.
The two clamped their horses' bellies, turned and galloped away.
After chasing for a while, they saw the garrison stopped at the foot of a sandy slope, and a few people looked back on horseback, while a few others dismounted and gathered around the sandy slope.
Han Changdu's heart sank, and he hurriedly urged the horse over, panicking greatly, and his voice trembled a little: "What's the matter, what did you find." ”
