Han Changdu's eyes narrowed.

It's the sound of footsteps, and it sounds like there are quite a few people coming.

Han Changdui quickly extinguished the bonfire, blew out the lantern, and glanced at Xie Mengxia, who had already woken up.

When Xie Mengxia was building the entrance of the cave, he kept an eye on it, first piled up a few piles of dead branches at the outermost end, blocking the entire entrance of the cave, and then built it up with stones inside, which was also stacked up in an orderly manner, deliberately covering up traces of man-made.

The sound of panicked footsteps getting closer and closer, stepping on the snow, making a creaking sound, crisply swirling in the silent mountains.

Han Changdui quickly set up a crossbow next to the entrance of the cave, and the tip of the arrow flashed with cold light, facing the outside.

A girl's delicate voice sounded in the cold night: "Hurry up, hurry up, keep up, just enter the mountain." ”

Running over with the sound was a man of five big and three thick, his beard was covered with snow, and his feet were smashed into the snow solidly.

Han Changdu's eyes shrank, it turned out to be him.

This man with a girl's voice, except for Li Yushan, there is no one else.

His expression gradually became solemn, and he looked out with a good look.

Behind Li Yushan, he followed a team of camels and horses, but the number was less, but the goods did not decrease at all, and even the hooves of the pack horses were deeply sunk into the snow.

These people ran in a hurry and panic, as if there were many pursuers behind them, and broke the silence of the mountains and forests in an instant.

Li Yushan's group ran through the stone cave, and sure enough, they didn't notice the hidden hole and ran all the way to the mountainside.

Behind them, there was a terrible howl.

Han Changwan was stunned, and scared Li Yushan and his party into a panic, and it turned out to be a group of gray wolves who ran away with their lives.

Countless pairs of green and faint light spots flickered in the cold night, and just one glance would make you shudder.

The head wolf looks very familiar, much larger than other gray wolves, with a pair of green wolf eyes, which looks extraordinarily human.

And in the wolf pack like a torrent behind, there are always two emaciated wolf cubs.

As he ran through the cave, the wolf paused, his green eyes staring at the mess of dead branches.

Han Changdu's bow was full of strings, the tip of the arrow trembled slightly, and he pursed his thin lips.

The head wolf just turned his head to look, looked up to the sky and howled, his body arched, and he rushed towards the mountainside.

On the plain white snow, there are paw prints of different shades, neat and orderly, without feeling messy at all.

It wasn't until the last gray wolf disappeared into the vast night that Han Changdui took a deep breath and put away his crossbow.

Xie Mengxia also gasped, and was afraid after patting his heart: "Why are there so many wolves, Jiu Chao, is it the wolf pack we met last time." ”

Han Changdui nodded: "It looks like it." ”

There was a squirming sound behind him, and it was Yao Qi who sat up and said hoarsely: "Childe, isn't it, there are still Li Yushan and them." ”

Han Changdui hurriedly lit the bonfire, lit the horse lantern again, retreated to Yao Qi's side, tried her hot forehead, and worried: "Why did you get up, sleep for a while, you still have a fever." ”

Yao Ji breathed a sigh of relief, shook his head with a wry smile: "I think it's much better, son, isn't it, Li Yushan has just passed." ”

Han Changwan didn't understand why Yao Qi cared so much about Li Yushan's affairs, and nodded: "Yes, he took the camel team and went to the mountainside." ”

Yao Qi didn't speak again, closed his eyes slightly, as if he was extremely tired.

Her heart was struggling.

Xie Mengxia looked at Han Changdui blankly, then at Yao Qi, and asked suspiciously, "Who is Li Yushan?" He suddenly slapped his thigh: "It's that sissy, isn't it?" ”

Yao Qi chuckled, choked with laughter, and coughed weakly a few times: "Your Highness, cough cough, Your Highness is right, that is, that sissy." ”

Xie Mengxia asked curiously, "Jiu Chao, Ah Qi, how do you know them." ”

Han Changwan patiently picked out some important things about what happened on the building boat and told Xie Mengxia to listen.

Xie Mengxia slapped his thigh and snorted, "Okay, Jiuchao, you two went out to have fun, and you didn't take me with you." ”

“......”

Han Changdui choked up, no longer ignored Meng Xia, and turned his head to ask Yao Qi: "Ah Qi, do you remember where they are going?" ”

Yao Qi nodded: "I heard Li Yushan mention that he wants to go to Luntai in Qiuzi Country." ”

Han Changwan thought for a while and said, "Let's go to Gaochang first, and then go to Luntai to see what Li Yushan and they are doing." ”

After speaking, he turned against the light and couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, but just looked at Yao Qi as if he had not yet done so.

Yao Qi seemed to struggle in pain for a moment before nodding: "Okay." ”

"Qiuzi country, Qiuzi country is good." When Xie Mengxia heard this, he suddenly came to his senses, clapped his hands and smiled: "I heard that the Guizi national song is beautiful and beautiful, there are many musicians, and all of them are amazingly talented, I can finally go and feast my ears." ”

The bonfire gradually weakened, and the firewood was a little insufficient, but no one dared to venture out to collect firewood, after all, Li Yushan and the wolves had just passed, and who knew if they would kill a horseman.

Xie Mengxia was shivering from the cold, sneezed several times in a row, and spoke in a nasal voice.

Han Changdui handed over a wine bag and said, "Drink some sorghum wine, warm." ”

Xie Mengxia took the wine sac, poured a sip, the spicy wine entered his throat, the heat swept through his limbs, he leaned against the cold stone wall, and sighed comfortably.

Yao Qi said tremblingly: "Childe, give it to me, too, take a sip." ”

Han Changdui flicked Yao Qi's forehead lightly and heavily, and smiled helplessly: "What do you think, you are still sick." ”

Yao pouted.

But it's so cold, even the cold is bubbling in the bones.

She shrunk back, her hands and feet stiff, her face pale.

Han Changdui slowly leaned over and asked tentatively, "I'm so warm." ”

With a snort, Xie Mengxia was choked by sorghum wine and coughed, his face turned red, and he waved his hand playfully: "It's okay, it's okay, you continue, continue." ”

Han Changdui was embarrassed, but when he looked down and saw Yao Qi's expression as usual, he also became frank and continued to smile and ask: "I'm so warm." ”

Yao Qi raised his eyebrows, shook off the sheep fur and handed it to Han Changdu, and then leaned over.

Han Changdui was stunned for a moment, shook off the sheep's fur, covered Yao Qi's body, and took a felt blanket to wrap it outside.

Yao Qi curled up and fell into a deep sleep.

That night, Yao Qi's high fever did not go away again, Xie Mengxia ventured out and picked up dry firewood and came back to light the bonfire, cook soup and boil medicine, but in the end it did not stop the high fever, and finally she passed out.

Xie Mengxia shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I thought Ah Ji had something to think about you, after doing it for a long time, it turned out that the high fever was too uncomfortable." ”

Han Changdu's hands and feet were numb, he moved, he didn't dare to move too much, he didn't speak, and after thinking about the dawn, he hurriedly turned over the Greedy Sweat Mountain and entered Gaochang Kingdom to find medicine.

He was also afraid that such repeated high fever would not subside and he would be unconscious, which would burn Yao Qi's brain.

As soon as the morning dawned, the two of them packed their things, turned over their horses, and hurried up the mountain against the cold wind.

Walking to the mountainside, the two noticed that something was wrong.

The snow was muddy, but it was still possible to make out where were human footprints, hoof prints, and wolf claws.

Blood flowed for miles and miles on the snow, breaking through narrow and deep ditches, blown by the cold wind, and frozen solidly.

The two dismounted and walked in the direction of the flow of blood, only to see a few people lying on their stomachs or lying under a few pitch-black rocks on the edge of the cliff, and the blood and water under their bodies were already soaked with snow.

The snow covering the rocks had been peeled away, and bloody handprints were messily printed on them.

Han Changdui leaned over and looked down the cliff.

The two horses rolled down with their goods, the dead grass on the cliff wall was smashed and fell, and a burden hung on the dead branches that protruded out of the cliff wall, and the cold wind blew and swayed leisurely.

Han Changdui retreated, picked up the people lying on the snow, pinched their faces and looked at them carefully, and recognized that one of them was the dart master in Li Yushan's dart team.

There was a fist-sized hole in the neck of this dart master, which looked like it had been bitten by a wolf, and the blood had coagulated and turned black and purple.

He closed his eyes slightly and thought for a while, then turned his head and said, "Your Highness, you are guarding here, and I will go down and take a look." ”

When Xie Mengxia saw the bottomless cliff, his legs and stomach swirled, and he said tremblingly: "There are all rocks down here, what is there to see, Jiu Chao, let's hurry up." ”

Han Changwan pointed to the burden hanging on the dead branches, and said simply: "There, there may be something I want." ”

Xie Mengxia asked again: "Then, then how do you go down?" ”

Han Changdui was silent, flipped out of the baggage, buckled it on the rock, and shook it vigorously, but the rock did not move at all.

He took out the long nail that was the thickness of his finger and drove it deep into the rock, just stuck in the gap between the rock and the snow.

He tied one end of the rope to a spike and the other to his waist, and his hand tightened the rope at the bottom of the flying claw, and slowly walked to the edge of the cliff.

The cliffs were full of juttling rocks and dry thatch, and the snow covered them, and they were wet and slippery, with nowhere to put their feet.

Han Changdui looked down at the cliff, found the closest foothold to the burden, grabbed the rope tightly with both hands, and firmly kicked the rocks protruding from the cliff wall with both feet, and carefully fell down the cliff step by step.

Xie Mengxia took Yao Qi down and put him on the edge of the rock, he lay on the side of the cliff, watching Han Changdui fall down in horror, his figure getting smaller and smaller.

Falling into the middle of the cliff, the biting cold wind suddenly became much stronger than the mountainside, and whimpered madly.

Han Changwan had just stepped on a rocky stone next to the burden, and was about to turn sideways and reach for the burden, when a gust of wind suddenly rushed over, shaking the rope violently.

His feet slipped, and his body was blown uncontrollably by the wind.

Xie Mengxia was so frightened that he shouted: "Jiuchao, Jiuchao, catch it." ”

Han Changdui didn't panic, let his body flutter back and forth with the wind, only used his hands to protect his head tightly, and his body hit the cliff wall all at once, causing severe pain in his flesh and bones.
