Chapter 45: Wolf Plague

The weather is getting colder and colder, and the white snow has been falling for three days and three nights, and there is no sign of stopping. It was dark outside, the cold wind was blowing, and it was impossible to tell whether it was day or night.

In this kind of weather, it is best to stay in the leather tent to roast and drink, it is impossible to go out, once you lose your way, if you don't have a fire to keep warm, you will be frozen into an iceman in less than a meal.

Fifth Brother Zhang's leather tent was built with three layers of moose skin, and the fire was raging in the middle of the fire, so Su Su and Sheli still felt cold, wearing thick fur furs, bloated like a chubby porcelain doll.

Fifth Brother Zhang was wearing a loose robe, sitting in a bearskin seat, looking at Tang Huo's sad face in a daze, he suddenly sighed and said, "I can't freeze here, I can't be hungry, I don't know how the people are?" Will you be cold or hungry? ”

Seeing that Fifth Brother Zhang was worried, Mei said: "In the past, when encountering such weather, which tribe must not freeze to death?" In the past few days, according to your orders, Hash has led his men to divide the bear meat from house to house, and helped them strengthen their tents, but I have not heard of any people freezing to death, and the big guys are grateful for your kindness. ”

Fifth Brother Zhang listlessly fiddled with the fire in the fire pond and said, "I didn't do anything, I just moved my mouth." ”

Su Su said: "In the past, when encountering this kind of weather, the elders only cared about whether the moose would freeze or not, and who would care about the life or death of the people. The winter in the wasteland was difficult, and some of the tribesmen died, so that the food of the clan was less than a few people to eat, which was exactly what the elders wanted. Although the son of the totem did nothing, your kind thoughts saved many poor people at once. ”

Sheri said: "This can't be blamed on the cruelty of the elders, we barbarians want to gain a foothold in the wasteland, not only to fight with wild beasts, but also to be able to withstand the ice and snow cold, relying on the strength of the clan, if you blindly take care of the old and weak, the big guy will not be able to eat in the end, and will not have the strength to survive in the wasteland, maybe a winter, the whole tribe will starve to death." ”

"Nonsense! According to you, the old and the weak should die? After listening to Sheli's words, Fifth Brother Zhang was furious, ripped off the robe on his body, and his upper body was naked, panting heavily with his chest rising and falling.

Ka Qijin heard Fifth Brother Zhang's anger outside the leather tent, and his body shook for a moment, so he entered the tent, knelt down and said to Fifth Brother Zhang: "Teacher, you are unhappy in the house, do you want me to slaughter her?" ”

"Kill you, big-headed ghost! I think I'm going to slaughter you. When Su Su heard this, he struck his little fist on Ka Jin's head, as if it was hitting a piece of pig iron, and his little hand hurt.

Ka Jin worshipped Fifth Brother Zhang as his teacher, and he was inseparable all day long, eager to keep Fifth Brother Zhang's words and deeds in his heart, so as to comprehend the unattainable supreme realm. For anyone who offends Fifth Brother Zhang, he feels that he is influencing his cultivation, for this kind of person, according to his style of acting, he will naturally slaughter things, and human life has never had any weight in his eyes, just like bears and wolves and other beasts.

Mei saw that she was so frightened that she hurriedly said to Ka Qijin: "You go out, she will not die for her sin." ”

Seeing the Holy Mother speak, Ka Da Jin didn't dare to disobey, and he didn't see him get up, and as soon as everyone saw a flower, Ka Da Jin came out of the leather tent, still sitting in the ice and snow, and seemed not afraid of the cold at all.

Mei said to Fifth Brother Zhang: "What she said is not unreasonable, for example, we only have the last bit of food left, of course we have to give it to you, only when you are full, can you have the strength to hit the prey, and we will all have something to eat." Surviving in the wasteland has always been so cruel, whoever is the most ruthless can live. ”

"In order to survive, even my wife is ignored? If it really comes to that time, you will still be fed, you will hunt better than me, and I will not be able to shoot arrows accurately, not even a rabbit. ”

Mei heard Fifth Brother Zhang's true feelings, she and Fifth Brother Zhang have been husband and wife for so long, they know his temperament very well, I believe that he is telling the truth, I am very moved in my heart, and said: "Fifth Brother, you are talking stupid things, there are so many women in the wasteland, if I die, you marry another one, our barbarian heroes should be hard-hearted, how can we put our wives first in everything." ”

Fifth Brother Zhang shook his head and said: "The kind of man who ignores his wife in order to survive is not hard-hearted, but a bad seed, and this kind of thing can't be done even if he is killed." ”

Sheli and Su Su saw Fifth Brother Zhang and Mei You Nong and I Nong's show of affection, and their hearts were full of envy, barbarians worship heroes, which Huaichun girl doesn't want to marry a big hero like Fifth Brother Zhang, but since being a maid, Fifth Brother Zhang has always been well-behaved, even if Mei left, there was no excessive behavior. Sheri and Su Su are the top beauties in the clan, and they are very conceited about their beauty, but unfortunately they are useless in front of Fifth Brother Zhang.

Fifth Brother Zhang and Mei were chatting, Babatula, Kuishan and Hash came together in the wind and snow, Kuishan looked at Sheli and Susu, who seemed to be more delicate than when they were at home, and saluted Fifth Brother Zhang and said: "Son of Totem, the wind and snow are too big these days, and the shepherds of our Shengyu Zhenhou tribe have successively driven the moose herd back, only a dozen herdsmen who went to Xingxing Lake to graze have not returned, I am worried that they have encountered wolves, and Hash discussed, asking him to send a few squads of warriors to pick up, Hash said that this is a big deal, He will only let you go. ”

Fifth Brother Zhang said: "In such a cold weather, ordinary warriors can't bear it, so I just didn't have it, so I rode an eight-legged giant horse to investigate, but I didn't know the road, and I needed someone to show me the way." ”

After hearing this, Hash was worried about the safety of Fifth Brother Zhang, and said: "Master, you don't need to go in person for this little thing, as long as you agree, I will set off with a team of warriors." ”

Fifth Brother Zhang knew that Hash was loyal, patted him on the shoulder, and said: "This is not a trivial matter, human life is at stake, you don't need to persuade anymore, there is no reason to change the decision I made." ”

"Yes!" Seeing that Fifth Brother Zhang insisted on going, Hash didn't dare to stop it anymore, and said: "I am very familiar with the road in Xingxing Lake, and I can show the way for the master." ”

"Okay, even if you're one!" Fifth Brother Zhang said with a smile.

Ka Qijin also walked into the leather tent at some point, and said to Fifth Brother Zhang: "Teacher, I will also go, if I encounter wolves, I will slaughter them all." ”

Fifth Brother Zhang looked at Ka Qijin, this disciple's spirit is a little different from ordinary people, he is shouting and killing at every turn, he has a headache, and he is not worried about leaving him at home, for fear of causing any trouble, so he has to take him with him.

Brother Zhang was in a hurry to go to Xingxing Lake, and hurriedly asked someone to bring the eight-legged giant horse over, these days, the eight-legged giant horse has eaten the best forage in the camp, raised fat and strong, and the fur seems to be shiny, after seeing Zhang Wuge, shaking his head and swinging his hooves is very affectionate, and he approached again, licking Zhang Wuge's face with his tongue.

Fifth Brother Zhang patted the neck of the eight-legged giant horse with his hand, jumped up when he flew up, and let Hash and Katajin also get on the horse and ride together, but the two did not dare to go hand in hand with the son of the totem, Hash rode a strong and abnormal male moose, Katajin carried Zhang Wuge's nine-toothed nail rake and walked, it was not slow at all, although it was not as fast as the eight-legged giant horse, but it was faster than Hashi's moose.

Along the way, the cold wind wrapped in snow particles, as if white hairs were flying in the sky, and nothing could be seen clearly beyond the three zhang, Zhang Wuge and Ka Qijin didn't care, but Hash was so frozen that his face stiffened, and the hot breath exhaled from his mouth condensed on his beard and eyebrows, and they all turned into ice.

Fifth Brother Zhang took out a leather bag containing wine from his arms, which Mei warmed up for him before leaving, and threw it to Hash casually, saying, "Look at your frozen bird-like appearance, give me a drink in one go." ”

Hash was not polite, pulled off the stopper, and really drank not a drop left, wiped his mouth and said: "Listen to the old people, this white snow is scraped from the ice field, hehe, it's really strong!" Master, have you ever been to the Ice Field? ”

Fifth Brother Zhang said: "Mei and I were originally going to go to the ice field to have a look, if it wasn't delayed, maybe we would have arrived at the ice field now, I heard that the big fish there are as big as mountains, if you catch one, you may be able to eat for several years." ”

Hash grinned and said, "If the big fish on the ice field are really like mountains, I will live in the belly of the fish, and I will have fish to eat every day when I open my eyes, and I can eat as much as I want, and I will not be a big fat man." ”

Ka Jin carried a heavy nine-tooth nail rake, and said coldly: "You live in the belly of a big fish, don't you smell like you eat and pull at the same time?" ”

Hash and Ka Jin did not speculate, snorted, and stopped talking, the three of them ran wildly all the way, fortunately Hash was familiar with the road, and there was not much work, so they saw the Star Lake in front of them from a distance, and bursts of wolf howls also came along the wind and snow.

A wounded moose sprang out like crazy, its nose and mouth sprayed white foam outward, there were several bites under its neck, and the wounds were gurgling with blood, and they were dripping into strips of blood ice.

Hash looked closely, and the moose was followed by three vicious steppenwolves, each the size of a calf, chasing after him with their bloody mouths wide open.

"Shoot them!" Fifth Brother Zhang pointed at the Steppenwolf with his hand, and Hash hurriedly opened his bow and set up an arrow, and the arrow was like a meteor, either in the eye or in the neck, and the three Steppenwolf were shot in an instant.

Zhang Wuge urged the eight-legged giant horse under his crotch, and came to the Xingxing Lake like a whirlwind, and saw a tragic scene, more than a dozen shepherds of the Holy Feather Zhenhou tribe were lying in a pool of blood, dozens of steppenwolves were gnawing at their corpses, in the lake in the distance, a large group of moose were driven to the ice by the wolves, and the steppenwolves chased the moose group along the wind and snow, but the moose that fell behind were instantly pounced by the wolves, and before they could breathe, they were swarmed and bitten by the wolves.

In order to protect his wife and children, several male moose lowered their heads and slammed into the wolves with their huge antlers, and the steppenwolf did not collide with the male moose, hiding on the side and standing up straight and pounced, the claws and fangs were deeply embedded in the belly of the moose, and as soon as they tore it, the male moose was disemboweled, and the blue and black intestines were sprinkled on the ground, and blood was splashed on the ice. The wounded male moose collapsed with a wailing sound, and was immediately crushed by the wolves, and in a short time it was a pile of bones.

The bloody killing made the wolves extremely excited and crazy, and large swaths of blood stained the ice red, and the fierce wolf howls resounded throughout the wilderness.
