Chapter 43: Meet a Wolf

The bright moon hangs high, and the night is already very dark.

The north wind whistles and listen carefully, it is not difficult to find that there is a buzz of verbal sound mixed in the wind.

At the exit of the cave, three bonfires were burning.

Just now, Xiao Rang used up all the dry firewood stored in the cave in order to light several bonfires.

Xiao Rang stood up from the fire, looked through the knives left by hunters in the cave, and picked out a willow-leaf sword with less obvious rust marks.

Gu Xiyan was sleeping half asleep and woke up, and suddenly she was awakened. She opened her eyes hazy and faced Xiao Rang's handsome face, "Xi'er, wake up.

I want to tell you something, listen now—”

“There are packs of wolves around the cave.

You must hold the torch in your hand tightly and hide behind me. Have you heard it clearly?"

Gu Xiyan was sleeping in a daze. After hearing what Xiao Rang said, his face suddenly turned pale.

She nodded and said tremblingly, "Where is the Marquis?"

The Marquis and I will hide together..."

Xiao Rang shook his head, "It is not a way to hide all the time.

Depending on the situation, these beasts will come into the hole in a while, and there will be a battle tonight."

Just now, when Gu Xiyan was asleep, a few wolf howls under the moon came not far away. When Xiao Rang heard this, his heart immediately sank.

Unexpectedly, not long after, a quasi-accurate sound rang around the cave. Xiao Rang got up and walked to the entrance of the cave to check. Sure enough, he saw five or six pairs of eyes flashing with green and cold light not far from the cave.

This is a pack of five or six wild wolves.

The wolves are the most cunning and fierce. Once they set their sights on their prey, they will never give up until they achieve their goal.

Fortunately, there is still some dry firewood in this cave. Wolves are most afraid of open fire. If these firewood is lit, it should be enough to scare the wolf pack for a while.

...

Xiao Rang held the willow leaf long knife and moved the muscles and bones around him. He calmly crossed the Sancong bonfire at the entrance of the mountain cave, exposing himself completely to the sight of the wolf pack.

Three feet away from the entrance of the mountain cave, two or three male wolves have been wandering for a long time. At this time, he saw the "prey" coming to the door, and seemed extremely excited. He squatted down and shook his tail at Xiao Rang.

The man's eyes were like eagles and falcons, his face showed a cold look, staring at the abnormal movements of the wolf pack.

After a long confrontation between the two sides, the beast finally lost its patience and the wolves gradually began to get restless.

The leader wolf raised his head and shouted. A male wolf next to him seemed to have received an order, turned around and ran quickly towards the cave with fire.

The wolf showed its long fangs and its eyes were shining with green light, and it rushed towards Xiao Rang's face.

Xiao Rang narrowed his deep eyes, his hands were as fast as lightning, and he headed towards the wolf's heart.

As the knife rose and fell, warm blood had already splattered all over the floor.

Seeing the tragic death of his kind, the wolves panted and roared, making waves of wild demonstrations.

Several male wolves raised their front paws, rubbed them on the ground a few times, and rushed towards Xiao Rang together.

A sword and sword shadow flashed, and several wolves were slashed to the ground, screaming.

The wolves under her feet had just swallowed their breath, but before Xiao Rang could slow down, he suddenly heard a scream from the cave.

It turned out that just now when Xiao Rang was fighting with several wolves, the only female wolf in the wolf pack actually sneaked in from the edge of the cave while Xiao Rang was unprepared, and bypassed the burning bonfire and came to Gu Xiyan.

Gu Xiyan was worried about Xiao Rang fighting with the wolves at the entrance of the cave. As soon as he looked up, a wolf with fangs appeared in front of him. He couldn't help but scream loudly on the spot.

Gu Xiyan was afraid of affecting Xiao Rang outside, so he suppressed the fear in his heart and held the bonfire in front of him.

The female wolf stared at Gu Xiyan, and the saliva in her mouth had flowed all over the floor.

Perhaps seeing that Gu Xiyan had no combat power, he actually squatted while shaking his tail excitedly.

Xiao Rang turned around and walked into the cave in three or two steps. What caught his eye was such a terrifying scene.

He killed several male wolf pieces in a row, and Xiao Rang inevitably got a warm wolf blood.

The slightly rusty lancet knife in his hand also opened a big hole and was about to break.

Xiao Rang's face was cold, he raised his hand and threw the willow leaf long sword, and then pulled out a slender soft sword from his waist.

When the female wolf saw Xiao Rang enter the cave, she bent over and roared a few times, and then rushed towards Gu Xiyan.

Before Xiao Rang could think, he immediately rushed over, pulled Gu Xiyan under him vigorously, and used his body to block Gu Xiyan's body.

The female wolf and Xiao Rang passed by side, and were already violently angered. As soon as they landed, they rushed up again with their teeth and claws.

Xiao Rang turned around, held a soft sword in his hand, and picked up several silver-lit sword flowers. In just a few rounds, the female wolf had been stabbed by the soft sword in dozens of wounds.

Blood oozed out, and the female wolf lowered her head and licked the wound a few times, then pounced on her with grinning.

Xiao Rang flashed out another sword, and this time it actually blocked the female wolf's throat. The warm wolf blood sprayed on the wall next to it, dyeing the stone and soil on the wall red.

...

At present, several male wolf corpses are at the entrance of a cave in the mountains, which is the best signal of demonstration. I believe that other wolves in the mountains will definitely not dare to come rashly for a while.

Only a "clang" sound was heard, Xiao Rang lost the soft sword in his hand, and hugged Gu Xiyan, who was almost scared behind him, and comforted him in his arms, "I'm not afraid anymore, I'm not afraid anymore, I'm here for my husband."

Gu Xiyan was pressed hard into the man's broad chest and trembled all over. It took him a long time to cry.

The man was covered in bright red wolf blood, and even a handsome face was stained with blood.

Gu Xiyan raised his hand to wipe the man twice, and choked and said, "Mr.... Is the Marquis injured?"

The female wolf suddenly rushed over, so close that it was too late to take action. Gu Xiyan really thought she was going to die in this wilderness today. Unexpectedly, Xiao Rang suddenly rushed over and blocked her tightly with his body.

There is no slight hesitation.

In this life, Xiao Rang loved her in every way, and she was willing to accept it and was sincere in her respect.

Gradually, Gu Xiyan became unwilling to recall the previous life, unwilling to recall Xiao Rang's ruthlessness and indifference to him at that time.

However, being unwilling to think about it does not mean that these bad memories do not exist.

Deep in Gu Xiyan's memory, he had never completely let go of his guard against Xiao Rang, and had never fully accepted Xiao Rang in this life.

Therefore, Gu Xiyan questioned herself again and again in her heart - what if it were her who faced the wolf pack today?

Will she use her own life to exchange Xiao Rang's life without hesitation?

Gu Xiyan choked in tears, raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Rang steadily, feeling full of guilt.

I saw Xiao Rang's face full of calmness, "Madam, don't worry."

"How could a mere wild creature hurt my time?"

...

Early in the morning.

By the burning bonfire, the tall and handsome man glanced at the woman who was sleeping in a cloak beside him, slowly reached out and untied the collar of the black brocade robe on his body.

The muscles on the ape's arm were raised, with two bloody scratches, and both wounds were covered with flesh and blood.

Xiao Rang lied to Gu Xiyan.

Just now, when he saw the female wolf pounce on Gu Xiyan in the cave, Xiao Rang subconsciously rushed over and blocked Gu Xiyan with his body. Unexpectedly, when he passed by the female wolf, Xiao Rang's arm was scratched hard by the beast.

Gu Xiyan has always been in the deep boudoir, but today he was scared like this, and he already felt guilty. Now, how could he ask Gu Xiyan to cry for the sadness of him when he saw this hideous wound?

Therefore, Xiao Rang did not say a word, endured the pain in his arms until he sealed the female wolf with a sword and deceived Gu Xiyan to go to bed. After watching Gu Xiyan sleep with his own eyes, he took off his outer robe with confidence and checked the wound on his arm.

Xiao Rang glanced at the wound lightly, then lifted the outer robe expressionlessly, lifted up the inner robe and bit it in his mouth. He tore off two pieces of cloth from the corner of the inner robe, and then roughly bandaged the terrifying wound a few times, finally stopping the blood that was oozing out.

After doing all this, Xiao Rang put on the black brocade robe again. His emotions were not visible on his handsome face, and he still seemed to have nothing happened.

For a moment, above the black brocade clothes, it was unknown whether it was human blood covering the wolf blood or wolf blood covering the human blood.

...

When the sky turned white, Gu Xiyan, who was sleeping, began to murmur in his sleep.

Xiao Rang saw that her face was flushed and his words were vague. He immediately felt something was wrong, so he hurriedly reached out and measured the beauty's temperature on the forehead. As expected, it was very hot.

Xiao Rang used a strip of cloth to soak the mountain spring water that he drew last night and covered Gu Xiyan's forehead. After changing this over and over again, the blush on Gu Xiyan's face faded a little.

When the sky was bright, a sound of horse hooves from far to near came. Xiao Rang heard the sound, held his breath and determined for a while, and reached out to take out a signal fire bullet with a fire lead from his arms.

The reason why Xiao Rang did not send a signal flare in advance yesterday was because he was afraid that the villain would find him and Gu Xiyan first before his own.

Now, the sound of horse hooves was heard from Xiao Rang's beloved horse, so Xiao Rang got up and walked out of the cave, and ignited the smoke bomb without hesitation with the flint.

With a "swish" sound, a small signal of smoke bloomed in the sky, and the blue sky was under the sun, which was particularly eye-catching.

...

Yesterday, the camp in Fanglin's yard was in chaos. Xiao Rang rode his horse to chase Gu Xiyan. When everyone behind him reacted, he rode his horse to chase Xiao Rang, chasing him for several miles, and could no longer see Xiao Rang's figure in front of him.

Everyone discussed and decided to search one by one.

Last night, several princes and generals were sleepless all night and searched for the two of them all night. They didn't go back to rest until early this morning. They changed the men from the Duke Ding Mansion and then searched for the two of them.
