Chapter 449: Clever Wolves

Seeing everyone looking at him with strange smiles, Zhao Yuan could only bow his head and remain silent, and responded in silence all the way.

At this time, the other four horse teams had left the camp one after another, and when the people left, they all had expressions of pity or schadenfreude, and in their opinion, the horse team of more than twenty people had no chance of survival.

In fact, the other four horse teams also saw that a group of women should be good at riding and shooting, but they did not think that a dozen women could fight against more than two hundred hungry wolves, because the total number of their arrow feathers was only about a hundred, that is, even if they were all shots and misses, they would fall into close hand-to-hand combat because the arrow feathers were exhausted.

The most terrifying battle with wolves is hand-to-hand combat, because, compared to humans, wolves are more ferocious, not afraid of death, and the speed is much faster, and the endurance and flexibility far exceed that of humans.

In the face of those sympathetic and gloating eyes, the mood of a group of porters who had been joined by a dozen women became depressed again.

"Let's go. The handsome young man walked up to the silent Zhao Yuan and spoke softly, extremely gently.

"Let's go. Zhao Yuanwen responded angrily, rejected the woman's good horse, and walked towards the front first, trying to keep a distance from the handsome man.

"Don't be afraid, I'll protect you. By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet, my surname is Li, and my name is Hao. The handsome young man looked at Zhao Yuan's loyal appearance, his face showed pity, and he couldn't wait to hug Zhao Yuan in his arms.

"Hmph!" a cold snort sounded, filled with boundless murderous intent.

"Bold!" Hearing the cold snort, Li Hao suddenly turned his face and snorted angrily at the young man behind him, and his handsome facial features revealed a cold fierceness.

"Slaves deserve to die, slaves are guilty. The young man was so frightened that he rolled off his horse and fell to the ground, turned over and knelt on the ground, and kowtowed desperately.

"Forget it, don't forget who you are, get up. Li Hao glanced at the young man coldly, and then his gaze fell on Zhao Yuan's sturdy back, his cold expression became tender like water in an instant, and his eyes were stupid.

"Yes, yes. ”

The young man climbed up slowly, respectfully, but there was a hint of resentment on his face.

The caravan was ready to stop and began to move forward in the lonely desert.

At this time, Zhao Yuan's camel team and the other four camel teams are not far away, the distance is about several miles, this distance is specially left for the wolves, mainly for the wolves to observe, select targets, once selected by the wolves, it is equivalent to being sentenced to death.

The camel team is moving in the established direction, in fact, even if it is out of the established direction, it does not mean anything to get rid of the tracking of the wolves, because the desert wolves are the real kings in the desert.

Along the way, there was no porter to speak, and the atmosphere was suffocating, but the dozen or so women looked relaxed, and they actually dismounted from time to time to play and frolic, and occasionally took out snacks from the salute on the camel's back to eat, not at all like a long journey, but like a spring outing, and the atmosphere was extremely relaxed and active.

The muffled voices of the porters were in stark contrast to the occasional laughter of the girls like silver bells.

Zhao Yuan could only hurry with his head bored, he really didn't have the courage to chat with that handsome young man, if he wasn't afraid of revealing his identity, he would have escaped like he did last time in Qingyue Shahu.

After walking for about an hour, there was no sign of the desert wolf, which greatly revitalized the group of porters.

However, the good times were short-lived.

After walking for another half hour, the shadow of the desert wolf roaming around began to appear.

The porters sighed suddenly, and even the boss looked desperate.

Clearly, they have become the target of the desert wolves.

Desert wolves are extremely intelligent, and they know that this group of camels, the smallest of them, is their prey.

However, the desert wolves did not immediately attack because of the small number of the camel team, and still followed patiently within a hundred meters of the camel team, a distance that was enough to make the bow and crossbow arrows useless.

During the day, it is not a good time for wolves to attack, and now, human physical strength is still strong, and combat effectiveness should not be underestimated.

In the face of the hungry wolves that kept appearing around, a group of girls were still laughing and laughing, and occasionally there would be girls pushing each other, pushing one of them in front of Zhao Yuan.

Only, the young man just sat quietly on the back of the horse, his gloomy eyes flashing fiercely.

Being entangled by a group of girls, although Zhao Yuan pretended to be submissive on the surface, in fact, it was much more comfortable than talking to Li Hao. At the very least, physical contact with the girls will be pleasurable and not repulsive.

In the anxiety of the porters, the day is getting darker. The blood-red sun had set on the horizon, and the entire desert seemed more and more empty and desolate.

On the way, a group of porters were extremely industrious, collecting everything that could be burned, but unfortunately, they took this route, there were neither shrubs and hay, nor horse manure or camel manure, and after walking for several hours, they did not collect much that could be burned.

The wishful thinking of using a campfire to drive wolves all night has failed.

Before it was dark, the people found a place conducive to defense and set up camp.

In the desert, the creepy howl of wolves kept sounding, one after another.

The porters began to boil tea and eat some hot food.

At this time, it is a time of life and death, no one dares to be lazy and sloppy, even if it is to eat, because whether it is fighting with wolves or fighting, it is extremely physically exhausting, and if you can't eat and drink enough, it is self-defeating.

Amid frequent howls, the wolves, under the cover of night, got closer and closer to the camp.

Zhao Yuan pulled out the dagger that his boss had given him and waited for it.

"Xiao Zhao, don't worry, they're just testing. The strong porter looked worried.

"Temptation?"

"Yes, temptations, too, torment us in turns, so that we cannot rest, and when we are exhausted and have a mental breakdown, they will take advantage of the weakness and rush up and tear us to pieces. Another porter explained.

"Are they so smart?" Zhao Yuan was stunned.

"Actually, more clever than you think, they are very good at seizing the moment, like tonight, they will not attack us, and they will not attack until tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow, or a few more days later, when we have not rested for days and nights, and they will not attack when they are exhausted. The porter said.

"That's amazing!"

"Xiao Zhao, don't be afraid, I will protect you. Then Li Hao came over again, with an enthusiastic face.

"You're not afraid of wolves?" Zhao Yuan's heart moved.

"It's just a few hundred wolves!" Li Hao showed a disapproving expression on his face, it was obvious that he didn't care about the wolves.

"How about we eat wolf meat today?" Zhao Yuan suddenly suggested.

"Childe wants to eat wolf meat, wolf meat is very rough, why don't you eat the special dried meat we brought." Li Hao was stunned.

"Anyway, being idle is idle, you let those beauties get two wolves, and everyone roasts and eats them to satisfy their hunger. Zhao Yuan instigated.

"It's also, it's idle anyway. Li Hao gave Zhao Yuan a thumbs up and smiled, meaningful.

"That's it. Zhao Yuan's scalp was numb for a while, and he said perfunctorily.
