Renji used the carriage as a cover, the steel knife in his hand trembled, the cotton robe was torn, and it was covered with blood, whether it was human blood or wolf blood, it was impossible to tell the difference, his face was cut by the wolf's inner claws, the muscles turned out, and the remaining soldiers fought desperately with the wolves, the number of wolves was too many, but there were fewer and fewer people.

There is a natural non-freezing spring in the depths of Sun Moon Mountain, the spring water is cold and sweet, the water quality is transparent, it is infiltrated into the ground after the ice and snow melt in Kunlun Mountain, it flows and gushes out, not only clear and clear, sweet and mellow, and in this cold environment can not freeze all year round. Only Renji knows where this frozen spring is, and it climbs more than 3,500 meters to the plateau permafrost. It is full of abrupt and jagged ice mounds and unpredictable ice picks, some of which are several meters high, and some are more than ten meters high.

Beneath the ice mounds, however, lies a never-ending trickle of undercurrents, and once the ice is lifted, groundwater often gushes out, forming fountains, surrounded by perennial ice and green pastures growing on meadows on the surface of the permafrost.

Finding the unfrozen spring, Renji used an iron rod to pry open the ice on the surface, and the ten-captain Bilegg stood aside indifferently and said mockingly: "Old Renji, how do you know that there is a spring here?"

Niji replied, "Don't you see the grass on the permafrost, they can't survive without the spring?" ”

"Why don't I believe there's a spring down there,," he continued. ”

Ninji replied, "Your name means wise man, but your wisdom is far inferior to that of the grass of the steppe, which knows where it is best to grow. ”

Bileg's face turned red, and he was just about to get angry, when a mountain spring suddenly erupted, and the surrounding soldiers shouted in surprise.

The water is sweet and refreshing, and it is refreshing to drink a sip, but it is very comfortable, and Renji explains, "The high altitude here and the unpolluted spring water are known as 'iceberg nectar'." So saying, he reverently knelt down and worshiped the spring, and then asked the soldiers to bring water cans, and in a short time several jugs were filled, and put them on the carriage and walked back.

The mountain spring behind him erupted for a while, and it came to a stop automatically.

On the way, they met wolves.

The wolf was afraid of fire, and it was too late to move, so the team simply stopped and lit a bonfire to stop the wolf's attack, and the wolves and the convoy confronted each other, and finally the man was victorious, and the wolf gradually retreated and disappeared.

Renji was uneasy in his heart, he knew how powerful the snow wolves were, they would not let go of the prey that was about to arrive, and people and horses were food in their eyes. They must be watching the convoy from a short distance, ready to attack it at the right opportunity, which will not be too long before it turns into a catastrophe. It was too late to inform Ou Xuzi that it was too late for anyone to rush out to report the news, and in the end, there would be no bones left.

The campfire was blazing, and the soldiers were munching on the dried meat and drinking the buns, unaware that they were in danger, and the smell of wine wafted through the air.

Renji whispered his worries to Bileg, so that he could be prepared, but Bileg replied with a sneer: "Isn't it just a few wolves, we have ** in our hands, sharpening iron like clay, and bows and arrows that can shoot 300 yards away, they are just right when they come, we will eat its flesh and drink its blood." ”

Renji had nothing to say.

As soon as the day dawned, Renci hurriedly beckoned the soldiers to get up, and hurried to the forest to meet Ou Xuzi, passing by a pass, the wolves appeared again, and saw the wolves at such a close distance, there were more than fifty of them, with narrow chests, strong backs and legs, so that they had very efficient mobility capabilities.

Without the restraint of fire, they became extremely ferocious, and the sudden collective charge of dozens of wolves made the condensed wasteland tremble, and the thin ice covered with mud was shattered in pieces, and the sound was extremely amazing.

The soldiers were frightened, and they didn't react until the wolf was very close, and they pulled their bows and shot arrows, and the wolf in front of them howled miserably, and rolled out with arrows stuck in their bodies, crushing a very deep mark on the snow, until they knocked into the two wolves that pounced on them from behind, and they didn't stop rolling and never stood up again.

It should be said that the arrows of the soldiers were good, and when the first round of arrows was fired, killing four or five wolves, their movements immediately slowed down. The corpses of their companions soon became food, and the sharp wolf fangs tore at each other, and soon there was nothing left to eat, leaving behind a pile of white bones.

The soldiers were trembling in horror, and the bows and arrows in their hands were trembling.

The convoy had already reached the pass, and the narrow opening was not convenient for the wolf group to charge, and the wolves gasped heavily, forming a semicircle along the pass, and temporarily stopped the attack. The bows and arrows in the hands of humans posed a great threat to them, and the eyes of the wolves, which were usually cruel and indifferent, began to show fear.
