Chapter 221: The Snowy Night Meets the Wolf
Ye Shurui thought for a while, "Forget it, I'm too lazy to care. It's all someone else's business anyway."
Outside the border, there are deserts. Could it be that there will be foreign invasions? Therefore, the army mobilized nothing more than a domestic coup in Mossi. There is a roadblock holding national military power, and these small fuss cannot make any noise.
Rong Zipeng thought it was true. They were all going back to the Ming Lan Kingdom, and there was no need to make trouble at this critical moment. Furthermore, Queen Mossi joined forces with the Marshal Lu Yu, the Grand Marshal of the Army. He still didn't believe anyone could win these two people.
After resting in the border town of Mossi Country for three days, early on the fourth day, the group stepped into the desert again and headed towards the direction of Minglan Country. However, they would not have thought that what awaited them in front was not the smooth road, but the bumpy road.
When they came from Minglan Country, Ye Shurui and his men had eliminated the bandits and thieves across the desert in this area, but on the way back, they learned lessons and were still very careful.
Qinghu and Qingjun take turns vigiling every night, and Rong Zipeng and Gu Yang occasionally get up in the middle of the night to inspect.
As early winter comes, the desert is still hot during the day, but it is cold at night. Ye Shurui never tires about setting up a small tent for Nalan Wan, allowing Nalan Wan and Lingyu to sleep in the tent, while others rest around the bonfire outside the tent.
That night, tiny snowflakes floated from the sky, and then fell on their bodies and then melted, turning into water droplets and soaking in their clothes. Not long after, the clothes of several people were soaked a little.
It was snowing in the desert, and it was the first time that several people knew about it. They were not well prepared and could only wrap their cloaks around them.
The whistling cold wind made the bonfire storm, and the long-lasting snowflakes made the night feel biting cold and unbearable.
"Arui, come in and squeeze with me." Nalan Wan looked at the embarrassing appearance of the people outside in the small tent, hoping that everyone could come in to hide from the wind and keep warm, but the tent was really smaller. Seeing the precious and elegant man standing tall in the wind and snow, she couldn't help calling him.
A pampered prince wouldn't have to come to this place to sleep in the open if it weren't for her.
Ye Shurui looked back and saw the guilt and heartache that Nalan Wan showed. He looked at the small tent, hesitated and still got in. He took off his cloak and wrapped it around Nalan Wan and himself, hugging her tightly, "Put your guilt, I only have your heartache!"
Ling Yu was embarrassed by the side. He turned to the side and did not look at the two of them. He lowered his eyebrows and looked at his toes in a daze.
Nalan Wan obviously noticed Lingyu's movements, and couldn't help but blush and said, "Who feels sorry for you? Shameless!"
"You!" Ye Shurui couldn't help but smile when she saw her unwillingness to admit it. After saying that, she sipped on her red face.
Nalan Wan was messy in the night wind. Why did she feel like she was back in the era of open weather in her previous life? Ye Shurui is sure to be an ancient prince?
On this extremely cold night, on this night when the wind and snow first came, Ye Shurui and his group were subjected to an unpredictable assassination.
In the middle of the night, the wind and snow were getting worse. Pan Tuozi wrapped in a fur coat and lay on the side of the small tent, which covered him with a lot of cold wind. Qinghu was watching alone, and it was a little cold. He couldn't help but circle around the small tent, rubbing his hands from time to time to time. Rong Zipeng, Gu Yang and Qingjun obviously couldn't sleep well, but just closed their eyes and slept lightly.
In the dark night, the sky and the earth were vast, and the wind and snow were dancing. A cold light suddenly flashed not far away. The green fox was alert. If it weren't for his illusion, it would be the light reflected from the blade.
"There is an enemy attack!" Qinghu shouted, "Who? Get out!"
Everyone was awakened by his loud shout. He was surprised while being cautious. Could it be that there were still sand thieves who had not been eradicated?
Seeing that Nalan Wan was also awakened, Ye Shurui was unhappy and kissed her on the forehead, "You stay inside, I'll go out and take a look."
"Be careful." Nalan nodded obediently. Ye Shurui didn't want her to go out and take a risk to kill, so she just listened to him stay inside and rest. It wouldn't be too late if the outside could not hold back her and then go to help.
The moment Ye Shurui stepped out of the small tent, he saw several people outside surrounding the small tent facing outward, and were on guard. Just as he was about to ask what was going on, he found a little green light in the darkness, appearing one by one on the sand dunes not far away.
Wolf pack.
Haha, it's interesting. When they came, they were greeted by desert rattlesnakes, but when they returned, they turned into ferocious wolves. I didn't think about it before, but now I think it may not be a coincidence.
When Wanwan and the others came, they were all smooth, but they were all restrained. It goes without saying that it was obvious that someone was targeting him behind the scenes! He wanted to see what a few dozen hungry wolves could do to them!
"Use hidden weapons." Ye Shurui greeted the people around him in a low voice.
Since he gave Nalan acupuncture twice in Moxiguo, he found that silver needles are indeed a good thing. They are easy to carry, can save people and kill people. After that, he asked Qinghu to privately prepare a lot of modified silver needles, which are just right to use when they are now besieged, and twice the result is twice the result!
Qinghu was a dynamic person, and his master asked him to do so, so he naturally prepared a lot of things. He heard Ye Shurui say that he would use hidden weapons and instantly take out a lot of them from his arms and share them with the others.
Rong Zipeng twitched the corner of his mouth and gave a thumbs up at the green fox.
In the blink of an eye, the faint green light approached them, silently. If it weren't for the faint light that was getting closer, it would be really hard to find such a group of dark night killers. It is obvious that this group of wolves is well-trained and it is definitely not the first time they attack humans.
When the wolves got closer, they discovered that these wolves were tall and mighty, with fierce eyes.
Ye Shurui roughly estimated the number of wolves, which was seventy or eighty, and he really invested a lot. By this calculation, each of them had to deal with sixteen or seventeen hungry wolves. Fortunately, they occupied a small area and the wolves could not all swarm.
After one stick of incense, the wolves were only about ten steps away from them, with three levels inside and three levels outside, densely packed.
"Kill!" Ye Shurui ordered calmly. For a moment, the silver needles in the five people flew out, and each needle would not be lost. Some shot directly from the wolf's head and killed him on the spot, while others just hit the wolf without any pain and itch, which aroused their ferociousness.
The smell of blood spread in the snowy night, stimulating the remaining wolves, fierce and irritable, spreading their fangs and pounced towards the crowd in front of them, and some even gnawing at the bodies of their companions.
"These wolves are so evil!" Rong Zipeng's hands were very fast and his mouth was not calm.
Ye Shurui sprinkled out a silver needle, and several hungry wolves were killed. These wolves were not their opponents at all. What was the purpose of the other party driving these beasts over?
