Chapter 567: Wolves
Gongsun Wuwu smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid that the bloody smell of our killing of wild boars and the aroma of roast pork attracted these wolves." ”
Li Fengyun thought for a moment, looked at the surrounding environment, and said, "It's not okay to stay in this valley, we have to find a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack." Maybe as soon as the day dawns, these wolves will disperse. Let's retreat north first and see what the situation is saying. Maybe these wolves aren't coming for us.
Try not to come into contact with wolves, wolves are very vindictive, especially large groups of wolves, once they have a feud, it is very troublesome.
It really doesn't work, we hide in the trees, or walk out of the trees. We don't need to be like these brutes. ”
said so, but how could Li Fengyun, who had lived in the mountains and wilderness for a long time, not know that the wolf was the most patient. They can't just hide in a tree for the rest of their lives, can they?
The three of them quickly cleaned up, Li Fengyun was reluctant to let him smoke the wild boar, although hunting was nothing to him, but it was very troublesome to deal with, and he also wrapped it in wild boar skin and tied it up. The three of them hurried north.
Along the way, the three encountered dozens of wolves, but Li Fengyun did not want to entangle with them, so he just jumped onto the tree and bypassed the wolves from the tree.
The wolves also found that the three of them were about to escape, and they chased after them, and for a while, the entire valley was full of sparkling green eyes, the number far exceeded the estimation of Li Fengyun and others, and there were no less than two thousand wolves chasing up around.
Now it is the beginning of May, the moonlight is not bright, it is not easy for the three of them to identify the branches a few feet away, Li Fengyun and Gongsun are worry-free, but Su Yunong is not successful, her eyesight is much worse, and she almost fell under the tree several times, which frightened her into screaming again and again.
Li Fengyun frowned, and said loudly: "Don't run away!" Everyone gets together, these wolves can't climb the tree anyway, and I have dried meat, I don't believe that these beasts can't be consumed." Strange, where are there so many wolves in this big mountain?"
The three of them found a tall ancient tree and gathered together.
Su Yunong suddenly pointed to a hill facing the west and said, "Look over there, there seem to be people!"
Li Fengyun and Gongsun Wuwu raised their eyes, only to see that on the opposite hill two miles away, there was indeed a cluster of fires flickering. There also seemed to be countless ghostly lights flickering around the mountain, and it was obvious that they were also trapped by the wolves. Li Fengyun said: "Who is so unlucky? Isn't it the old man Changbai who blames them?"
Gongsun Wuwu shook his head and said, "It won't be the Changbai Old Monster, it's not so coincidental, it's been two days since we got rid of them, how can they still catch up with us? Moreover, with their group, there are so many people that thousands of wild wolves can't stop them." Wolves won't provoke them. ”
Li Fengyun also knew this truth, and said: "No matter who it is, I'll sneak over and take a look, and by the way, ask them where we are now." You wait here, I'll go and go back!" With that, he untied the clutter on his body, looked at a big tree a few feet away, and with the elastic force of the branches under his feet, he went straight over.
More than two miles, if it was on the plain, Li Fengyun would be able to rush over without a cup of tea. However, this is in the middle of a lofty mountain, and the two mountains seem to be close, but if you really want to go over, the distance is actually not close. Moreover, there are dangers everywhere in the mountains, one careless will fall into the abyss, and the moonlight is dim, and it is often obscured by floating clouds, adding countless variables. It took Li Fengyun more than half an hour to rush to the area around the opposite mountain.
When he got closer, Li Fengyun saw clearly that the bare mountain was a large piece of bare rock, about dozens of zhang square, among which there was a raised big bluestone, the four walls were steep, and the height was more than zhang, and ordinary wolves could not climb up. The size of the bluestone is about a zhang, and there are eight people standing on it, guarding a fire, and six of them are holding swords to protect a man and a woman in the middle.
The rocks under the bluestone and the surrounding woods were densely packed with wild wolves, and their green eyes were like a swarm of fireflies, staring closely at the people on the bluestone, without the slightest intention of leaving.
The person on the bluestone obviously found Li Fengyun on the tree more than ten zhang away, and one of them arched his hand towards Li Fengyun, and said a Khitan dialect. Li Fengyun has also learned some Khitan dialect in recent years, and he can barely understand it, to the effect: "Where is the friend who came, Wan Wang stretched out a helping hand and drove away these wild wolves, I will be thanked!" The man turned his back to the firelight, Li Fengyun couldn't see the appearance clearly, only felt that the voice was a little familiar.
It turned out to be Khitans, and Li Fengyun suddenly had no interest in saving them.
The resentment between the Central Plains and the Khitans is very deep, many of Li Fengyun's friends and subordinates died at the hands of the Liao army, and they have a good impression of the Khitans.
Hehe laughed twice, Li Fengyun pretended to be confused, and said in a broken Khitan language: "What are you talking about Lao Tzu doesn't understand, the king, I will come over to see what kind of people are spreading wild on Lao Tzu's territory and provoking so many wolves." Lucky for you, I'm in a good mood today, and I won't take you the money for the pass.
But you have to tell your lord honestly, who are you, where are you, and what are you doing here?"
The people on the bluestone were stunned, this barren mountain and wild mountains, I can't even see a figure on weekdays, why is there still a group of robbers hidden?
Suddenly, the woman who was surrounded by six people jumped up, pointed in the direction of Li Fengyun and said, "Li Fengyun, you are Li Fengyun." You treacherous boy, what kind of mountain king you pretend to be, you burn to ashes, and the lord of this county will recognize you!"
Li Fengyun was stunned for a while, and finally met a group of people in this barren mountain and forest, and they were still old acquaintances. Of course he recognized the woman's voice, and he remembered who the person he had just asked him was. Li Fengyun couldn't help but secretly cry bitterly in his heart, he hated to slap himself twice, what did he do when he ran over to do nothing? When he met this person, he wanted to get out, and I was afraid it would be another troublesome thing. These wolves can't stop Ah Da and Ah Er. What's more, Li Fengyun didn't know how many first-class masters there were in this group.
"Hahahaha! It turned out to be the little county lord of Yelu, I didn't expect to meet you here!" Li Fengyun laughed dryly, that's right, that woman is Yelu Hongyan, the county lord of Liao State, and the person who asked him just now was her subordinate Ah Da, Li Fengyun even recognized Yelu Hongyan's other subordinate Ah Er from his figure, these two people are both good martial arts, if they are entangled by these two people, it is indeed an extremely headache.
"Lord Yelu doesn't know, you Khitans have captured the emperor of the Jin Kingdom. I can't do it as a general in the Great Jin Dynasty, and I was forced by you Khitans to be cornered, with no food and clothing, so I had to fall into the grass and eat with food, and changed my career to become the king of the mountain in this barren mountain and wild mountains. I knew that the small county was coming, so Li didn't come to join in the excitement, and the third watch didn't sleep in the middle of the night and got up to rob, is it easy for me?" Li Fengyun said nonsense while pondering a way to get out.
"Hmph, if you want to be a robber, you should also go to the Tibetan Army Valley to be a robber, how did you come here?" Yelu Hongyan snorted coldly, "Don't think that this county lord doesn't know about you and Yan Wushuang's assassination of Your Majesty, you came here because someone drove you here, didn't you?"
Damn, this little girl is too smart to lie to her!
Li Fengyun scolded secretly, his mind kept turning, thinking about how to get out of danger, he definitely couldn't go back to Su Yunong, that would be tantamount to bringing Su Yunong and Gongsun Wuwu into danger.
