Chapter 12 Eating a wolf or being eaten by a wolf
"Village Chief, why are we in a hurry at night? And why don't you take the official road, the soil of this mountain road is frozen and hard, like ice. ”
Villager Zhu Dabao complained that the dark mountain road was hard and slippery, and he fell several times on the way with his bare feet.
When it comes to coaxing and complaining about this matter, I wish the people who come to the village to recognize the second, and no village dares to recognize the first.
As soon as they heard someone take the lead, they overshadowed each other as if they were afraid that they would not take advantage of it, "Yes! Rushing at night, it was colder than the day. I'm freezing to death! ”
"This adult can still bear it, but this child can't help it, what can I do if it freezes?"
"Who's to say it isn't!"
Women with children instantly became the subject of complaints, and you and I talked endlessly.
Zhu Qingquan's head is too big, and he only feels that his life is really bad.
With his bearing, knowledge and appearance, he should also devote himself to the hairpin clan, instead of mixing with these mud-legged fools in the blessing village.
But fortunately, all this, it will be good to wait until Shangjing.
Thinking of this, Zhu Qingquan's eyes turned and his mind became active, he must behave well in front of the person who can help him change his fate.
"Folks!" Zhu Qingquan turned around and held the torch in his hand high and motioned for everyone to stop.
"We were in a hurry because we were delayed during the day."
Zhu Wuxian, who was walking in the middle of the team, pouted, isn't this pure nonsense.
If it was put on time, she would definitely be angry with him, but this time she couldn't, because the reason for rushing overnight this time was to save her!
Ji Huaiche, the Wen family's little poison doctor, lost the silver needle that could detoxify her, so they had to go to the nearby Huaiyang County to find a pair, otherwise her life would be lost.
"Today, I found out that there are rich people in Huaiyang County, not far ahead, who have set up sheds to give porridge."
Zhu Qingquan said a word, and everyone who was complaining just now immediately quieted down.
"Really?"
"Village Chief, are you telling the truth? Is there really a rich person in Huaiyang County who sets up a shed to give porridge? ”
"Yes." Zhu Qingquan nodded and continued: "But in a famine year, even if the rich set up a tent to give porridge, there is a quota. So we had to travel overnight to get to Huaiyang County as soon as possible, so that each of us could drink hot and sweet rice porridge! ”
On opening your eyes and talking nonsense, painting flatbread, wishing you safe is really serving Qingquan, in the year of famine, what is more attractive than hot and sweet rice porridge.
Blessing the people who come to the village are like chicken blood, not too hard and slippery, not too scary in the dark, and not afraid that the child will freeze...... I'm afraid that there will be no rice porridge to go, and the foot journey is fast.
After walking for about an hour, someone in the crowd let out a cry of terror.
"Look! Look! What is that? ”
Everyone stopped in unison and looked in the direction of the man's finger.
It's okay not to look at it, but when I look at it, I am so frightened that my face is pale, and my legs are trembling.
In the dark night, on the mountain road, there are a pair of dark green eyes.
Mrs. Gao, who was walking beside Zhu Wuxian, patted her thigh, "Alas, I'm a dear mother, this is a wolf!" We've met a pack of wolves! ”
"!" Zhu Wuxiao cursed in a low voice, what is ill-fated, she now understands it.
In the year of famine, people starved to death for several waves, and she could still meet wolves!
Zhu Wuxian glanced helplessly at the mountain road, and the green light shot straight like a laser pointer, and the little face collapsed at the moment, which is too much! No matter how you say it, there must be two, four, or five, even if you don't get poisoned, it's a dead end!
"Congratulations...... Brother Zhu, how is this good? ”
Zhu Qingquan anxiously ran to Ye Nanmian's side, at this moment, he didn't want to show anything, he just wanted to leave here alive.
Ye Nanmian's already expressionless face was even colder at the moment, as if it was covered with a layer of frost.
These wolves look hungrier than they are.
Seeing them is like seeing meat delivered to the door, with saliva hanging from the corners of each mouth.
"Brother Zhu, you are talking!" Zhu Qingquan's face turned pale and urged anxiously.
Ye Nanmian frowned, turned to everyone: "Everyone has also seen it, there are a total of twenty-five wolves, and they have been killed, so we don't have to worry about having no meat to eat on the way to Beijing." ”
"That'...... What if you can't die? ”
"Can't be killed?" Ye Nanmian raised his eyebrows, "Then they will eat us as meat!" ”
The dark and gloomy sky poured out a dull breath, and if it weren't for the sound of breathing around him, Zhu Wuxiao would have felt that these people were scared to death.
Seeing the wolves approaching, these people still hesitated, trembling and did not say anything.
Zhu Wuxian's eyebrows showed disgust, but if he only relied on Ye Nanmian and them, I was afraid that it would be ......
Thinking about this, Zhu Wuxiao untied the pig-killing knife pinned to his waist and raised it high above his head.
"Folks, at this time we are grasshoppers on a rope, if we don't unite at this moment, just wait to see our families, children and ourselves become hungry wolves."
"If you don't scare people here, I won't fall for you, uncle, that's more than 20 wolves, I won't go, mother! Let's go! Let's run back! ”
Zhu Dalang, who was torned off by Zhu Wuxian, was the first to object.
"Then you're leaving!" Zhu Wuxiao choked and said, "Wolves are all active in groups, the night is high and the wind is dark, I wish my eldest brother and your family can be careful." ”
"Dalang! Don't listen to her! Let's not go, don't go! ”
Aunt Niu is also a smart person, and she knows that the family can never leave the blessing to come to the village.
But obviously her eldest son is not as good as her, and she was provoked by Zhu Wuxian, how could she still listen to his mother's advice, turn around and run down the mountain.
saw a black shadow rushing out of the darkness, threw Zhu Dalang to the ground, opened his mouth and bit directly on the man's face, tore off half of his face, and disappeared into the dark with Zhu Dalang's neck in his mouth.
"Da Lang!" Aunt Niu exclaimed in surprise and was about to rush over, but fortunately, the little son behind her quickly grabbed her.
This change came too quickly, and everyone was so frightened that they stood in place, and no one dared to make any other sound except for Aunt Niu's cry.
"I wish you a big girl, I am willing to kill wolves with you and fight a way for my family to survive." A black-faced man stood up with a woodcutter in his hand,
"Even if I die, it's okay, eighteen years later, Lao Tzu is still a good man!"
"That's right! I'll go too! I want to protect my mother and sister! A fourteen or fifteen-year-old half-grown boy stepped forward.
"I'll go too! The iron pillar of my family died on the way to escape, I can't let the iron pillar have no roots, I want to protect our son! ”
The words of Tiezhu's daughter-in-law aroused the pain points of many women, many of them had husbands who died on the way to escape the famine, and the only belief that supported them to continue to live was the child, which was to leave a blood for the husband's family!
"Okay, you stay here and take care of the children."
Ye Nanmian picked up a child with one hand and threw it into the board car that wished him to be safe.
Seeing this, the women also picked up the child and put it on the cart behind Zhu Wuxian, and asked with teary eyes: "Okay, my child will please you." ”
Zhu Wuxiao understood that this was Ye Nanmian protecting her, afraid that if she dared to use force again, it would accelerate the poison.
At the same time, she also understood that this was the first time that the people who came to the village had trust her.
I secretly made up my mind to protect the safety of the children on the board no matter what.
'Whew'
With a wolf howl, more than two dozen wolves galloped from the mountain road like lightning.
Ye Nanmian rushed out first with an ink knife, followed by Adjutant Ding.
Although the villagers are still afraid, they are all following up in order to live at the moment.
In an instant, wolves and people were at war together.
It was also around this moment that the people who came to the village felt a sense of unity for the first time.
The people over there and the wolves were fighting, and I wish you all the best here, and the children on the cart cried out louder.
Zhu Wuxiao looked at this helplessly, looked at that, and couldn't help but shrug the corners of his mouth, it is better to let her kill the wolf, at most, the poison will be faster.
Just when Zhu Wuxian was anxious, a soft voice came from his ears.
"Sister, you can't be in a hurry, you have to keep your mood peaceful." Ji Huaiche's soft and cute little face tightened, and he blinked his big eyes and said seriously: "Sister, you must keep your mind calm." ”
"Good...... Good. The corners of Zhu Wuxiao's mouth pulled out a stiff smile, and he hinted to himself in his heart, I want to be calm, I want to be calm, I am a calm sea.
Gan! What the hell is this so calm for me!
Zhu Wuxiao looked at the six green eyes that appeared in the dark at some point, and the sea that had just calmed in his heart instantly erupted like a tsunami.
Three horses!
There are three wolves here!
God! Why do others cross all kinds of golden fingers, koi physique! I'm hovering on the line of life and death at every turn! I wish you no harm and no tears.
The group of children on the cart were frightened by the sudden appearance of the three wolves and cried even louder.
This makes Zhu Wuxiao how to stay calm, at this moment, she can't wait for a lightning bolt to kill herself, it's a hundred things.
"Sister." Zhu Ping'an squeezed out of the cart, "Brother Ye estimates that he can't get out, and we can only rely on ourselves here." ”
"Ping'an, are you really only five years old?"
Zhu Wuxian looked at Zhu Ping'an's calm appearance, and once again asked the doubts in her heart, she wondered if this child was also like her, and there was a soul from another world living in her body.
"It's not."
I wish you all the light, won't you, really guessed by yourself?
"I'm seven years old! It's a little adult! He is the only man in the family. ”
Zhu Ping'an raised his little fist and was about to jump out of the carriage, but Zhu Wuxian pulled him back with one arm.
"You just stay here, three wolves are not enough for you, the only man in the family, to clean up."
Zhu Wuxiao glanced at the people who were fighting desperately on the mountain road, his eyes drooped, and when he raised it again, the killing intent was raging inside, holding the pig-killing knife and pointing directly at the shadows, and shouted: "Auntie, I must eat roasted whole wolves tonight!" ”
