Chapter 402: Slightly better
Xia Hongsheng didn't even care about saying that Lin Ergou was uneducated, it was terrible, and he didn't know that he was deceived so easily, so he immediately beckoned everyone to return the same way immediately. Everyone hurriedly ran forward, but before they could run a few steps, they saw Lin Ergou suddenly stop again. There was no road in the mountains and forests to get here, and when Lin Ergou stopped, the people behind him were all blocked from the road, and they could only stop.
Everyone followed Lin Ergou's line of sight, and saw a pair of bright green eyes emerging from the depths of the forest, which was already a little dark.
"Don't panic! Don't panic! Xia Hongsheng explained in a low voice: "Don't be impulsive, it's a wolf pack!" ”
Lin Ergou suddenly turned his head and shouted at Youji: "Fairy, we are surrounded by wolves!" Please save us, fairies! ”
Xia Hongsheng didn't say a word and kicked at him: "Save your head, get ready to light a torch!"
Even in the rugged mountains and forests, people can't outrun wolves no matter what. On the contrary, the more he runs, the more he can arouse the ferocity of the wolf and chase after him.
Those spies all have fire folds on their bodies, and they all carry torches, which are one of the standard equipment, and they are made of the most resistant wood, and the top fire heads are soaked in tung oil, just a little bit. Just for ease of carrying, those torches are all short in length and can't support long burns.
Listening to Xia Hongsheng's order, everyone took out the torches they were carrying and held them in their hands, and also took out the fire folds, ready to light the torches in their hands.
"Don't be stunned, move down slowly!" Xia Hongsheng whispered again, while staring closely at the eyes that appeared in the forest: "Only light three torches at a time, and the rest of the people are ready to use crossbows!" ”
The Tang Blade, and the spy battalion. It is equipped with the latest weapons made of the latest technology and materials in the military aircraft workshop.
Everyone moved slowly and cautiously. The green eyes in the forest also slowly moved with everyone. Suddenly. Qi Yong's feet slipped, and he was about to fall and roll down when he stumbled, but fortunately, he reacted very quickly, hooked the dead tree next to him with one foot, and at the same time grabbed the tree next to him with his hand, so he didn't fall and roll down.
"Be careful of your step, it's cold on the mountain, and the snow is hard to melt!" Xia Hongsheng reminded.
The group slowly descended the mountain. Because it was far away from the mountain path that people usually step on in the mountains, everyone had to watch out for the "green eyes" that had become more and more around them, and at the same time they had to look for a way down the mountain. And it's getting dark, which is not good. I knew that Lin Ergou's family had nothing to do, so I waited until tomorrow morning to come. As soon as it gets dark, the mountains and forests are even more dangerous. Not to mention that it is easy to get lost, what is even more terrifying is the surrounding wolves. Just looking at the eyes around them, there are no less than a dozen, and there are still wolf howls from time to time in the distance, and the wolves here will only gather more and more.
These trained spies are not afraid to fight wolves. But the darkness and the slippery and steep rocks of the mountains are their great enemies. I can't see the road under my feet anymore, and no one knows what I'll step on next. It could be a pothole filled with rotting leaves. Let people step into it and lose their balance. It could also be a sharp, slippery exposed rock that makes people fall and bruise. It is even more terrifying to see the situation ahead, and the ravines and cliffs of Laojun Mountain are innumerable and unfathomable!
It was at this time that the wolves were ready to move.
A low, hoarse voice that came from the depths of his throat seemed so clear in the lonely mountain forest. There were more such voices around, a precursor to the wolves preparing to attack.
"Ignition!" Xia Hongsheng made a quick decision.
At the sound of the order, the torches were immediately lit. The darkness around him suddenly dissipated, and a firelight immediately illuminated the mountains and forests.
Under the light of the fire, several mountain wolves were already slowly approaching, but they were illuminated by the firelight, and suddenly retreated, their front bodies lowered, their fangs exposed in their grinning mouths, and a low roar came from the depths of their throats.
Xia Hongsheng took a deep breath quickly, he had never seen so many wolves, and even, he had never seen a real, alive wolf. From the movie and from the book, I have seen many stories and scenes of people being besieged by wolves, and the terrifying scene is now echoing in his mind, making Xia Hongsheng's heart beat quickly and violently.
The surrounding wolves began to approach, and several people with torches stood in front, using torches to scare off the wild wolves that wanted to approach, while continuing to retreat, groping down the mountain.
"It's almost time......" You Ji beside Xia Hongsheng suddenly spoke. Xia Hongsheng looked over and listened to her continue: "These wild wolves have been following for so long, I'm afraid they should be besieged. Childe ......"
"Ouch!" Lin Ergou's body suddenly crooked, and he fell to the ground all of a sudden, letting out a cry of pain: "Legs! ”
Lin Ergou's mother-in-law immediately went over, and when Xia Hongsheng looked at it, he saw that Lin Ergou had just accidentally stepped on the air, and one leg was caught in the middle of the stone crack! The top of the stone crack was covered with snow, and it was impossible to see that there was a stone crack below, and it was Lin Ergou who stepped on it.
What's even more terrifying is that as Lin Ergou fell suddenly, the surrounding wolves immediately rushed up!
"Woo ......" a wolf howled, and suddenly a wolf jumped up violently, jumping more than the heads of everyone, and pounced violently.
"Whoosh!" With a bang, a palm-long steel arrow shot out violently, piercing into the wolf's eye at once, and went straight into the skull, not revealing it at all.
The wolf died instantly, falling from mid-air to the crowd.
The surrounding wolves completely erupted, roared in unison, and immediately rushed up in unison. The spies did not show weakness, and they also let out a loud roar at the wolves with round eyes, and for a while, several wolves were frightened and retreated.
"Protect the General!" A spy shouted loudly, a steel crossbow in one hand and a short blade in the other, and fought with the wolves rushing over. The spies with torches held their torches aloft, and the short knives in their other hands also slashed at the wolves that rushed towards them.
The wild wolf was extremely vicious, several of them rushed forward to bite, those spies were also well-trained, although they were not as good at fighting as the Tang Blade, but they were not weaker than the elite in the army. A kick kicked the wolf's side ribs, and at the same time dodged the bite of the other wolf, the short blade in his hand slashed, rolled away violently, pulled the trigger with the crossbow, and shot the steel arrow into the wolf's body with a whoosh.
"Childe! Come on! Seeing that those spies were fighting with the wolves, in the chaos, You Ji grabbed Xia Hongsheng and rushed to the side.
Xia Hongsheng wanted to break away from her, but suddenly felt a numb wrist, as if he had been pricked by a needle, and then half of his body suddenly lost his intuition, and wanted to make a sound, but found that he couldn't control the parts of his body, and the person fell to the ground.
You Ji stepped forward at the right time, hugged Xia Hongsheng, wrapped her hands around Xia Hongsheng's waist, and showed a sly smile on her face: "Childe, it seems that this game is slightly better than the concubine!" ”
As he spoke, the arms that wrapped around Xia Hongsheng's waist were forced, and he actually took Xia Hongsheng backwards and fell into the deep cliff behind him! (To be continued.) )
