Suldak looked at the barren land shrouded in night. It was impossible to hunt down those sand wolves at such a time, so he said, "See if there is a chance to drive this pack of wolves away during the day. Always showing up in this area, always a threat to us."

Hearing what Suldak said, the two young men didn't dare to take up this topic. In their opinion, the best way to meet a sand wolf is to avoid it quickly, and there is no one who will take the initiative to move forward...

For a team of more than 20 people, the daily consumption of fodder alone is not a small burden. There is almost nothing in this barren land. Even if all the seabuckthorn grass along the road is eaten up, the stomachs of these horses cannot be filled. Surdak Although some fine bean ingredients are prepared, it is not too much.

The horses were fed before dawn, and the group continued on their way. Surdak rode his horse and searched a large circle along the way. Unfortunately, except for some white wolf dung, there was not even a shadow of the sand wolf.

Three days later, the group finally arrived at the foot of the pustule mountain and settled down.

The villagers all put on masks according to Suldak's request, and everyone hurriedly set up the felt tents before it got dark.

This is the edge of the rocky area, as long as you walk a hundred meters inside, you can see stalagmites emerging from the solidified lava, and the pale yellow sulfur is intertwined with these stalagmites...

Chapter 262 The Sand Wolf Appearing Whereabouts

Volcanic ash flew and fell continuously, like gray snow floating in the sky.

There was a strong smell of sulfur in the air, and the air inhaled was dry and hot. Working in this dry and hot environment, the body was easily dehydrated.

A group of masons with white cotton masks on their faces and long leather boots on their feet, carrying picks, sledgehammers, crowbars, chisels and water bags on their waists, and wicker baskets on their backs, took advantage of the dawn of the day They walked out of the tent and entered the volcanic river channel covered with stalagmites. After seeing the sulfur mine on the stalagmites, these stonemasons basically didn't care how thick the stone layer was on the sulfur, and rounded up their iron picks. The quarrying began in full swing.

The labor subsidy of one silver coin every day made the villagers high-spirited, and it was the first day of coming to Pustout Mountain. Everyone was working hard and prepared to gather a batch of goods as soon as possible so that the transport horse team could leave in time.

More than [-] horses are parked in the camp at the foot of Pustout Mountain. They spend more on chewing and chewing than the villagers. The stonemasons are worried that once the little beans are eaten, these horses will grab the wheat cakes from them. ...

The sulfur is loose in texture, as long as the surface of the stalagmite is exposed, it will be shattered immediately when the iron pick hits it, and all the finely divided sulfur ore will be put into a wicker basket. It takes a lot of effort to mine it out, and sometimes even the entire stalagmite has to be smashed open.

In order to avoid dehydration, Surdak asked these villagers to drink some light salt water every once in a while.

Moreover, the weather conditions in this area are too hot. Suerdak set the time for quarrying around dawn and dusk. Once the scorching sun climbed to the mountainside of the pustule mountain, he asked all the villagers to withdraw their tents to rest. Some villagers encountered There are a lot of sulfur mines with stalagmites exposed outside, and a wicker basket of sulfur mines has been mined a long time ago. For some stalagmites that are difficult to mine, the villagers have dug out at least half of the basket of sulfur mines.

The villagers were busy in the stalagmite forest, and they were in high spirits. When they heard the whistle to call off work, they were a little puzzled for a while, but they still came out of the stalagmite forest in the rocky area, carrying wicker baskets on their backs.

Back at the camp, Suldak found that the people who had been taken back were huddled in a tent, talking and discussing in a low voice.

Waiting for Suldak to come in from the outside, sat down in the middle of the tent, and asked the villagers about the situation of mining sulfur mines.

"I think we can do it for a while, don't you guys think? Dak..." Under the instigation of other existences, the big black man was the first to stand up and fire.

A middle-aged uncle sat behind the big black man. He stretched out his hand and slapped the big black man on the back of the head, angrily angrily said: "You should respectfully call him Lord Suldak Knight, you brat!"

The big black man covered his head, daring to speak out against the violent behavior of the middle-aged uncle.

"Everyone should just call me by my name." Suldak smiled slightly and said to the villagers in the tent.

A villager sitting next to Suerdak took the opportunity to say: "Dak, I think we can increase the working time a little bit, who just walked out of the tent and the food in the stomach has not been digested To go back to the tent to rest, if Uncle Brett knew we were so lazy, he might deduct our subsidy, look at how difficult it is to earn some subsidy..."

The villagers in the tent nodded, and they obviously thought so too.

But Suldak shook his head, signaled everyone to be quiet with his hands, and then said: "You may continue to dig here for half a month. The environment here is harsh and a lot of water will be lost every day. Although we don't There is a lack of drinking water, but the body is always in such a hot state, it is easy to go wrong, so everyone must maintain their strength."

"The autumn harvest will be held in half a month. Everyone's health must not be worn down. This time I will bring this batch of goods back to Wall Village, and I will definitely bring enough supplies."

After Suldak finished speaking, most of the villagers fell silent. Obviously, everyone also had some concerns.

The big black man yelled loudly from behind: "Then we must at least follow the rules of other quarries. This is the sulfur mine in Wall Village. It doesn't make sense for such a high wage, oh~ bah ! subsidy, but it takes less time to work than other quarries!"

Suldak looked at Big Hei speechlessly, are you a spy sent by the old village chief?

"Considering the environmental factors, it is very reasonable to take these subsidies, and I have the final say here, everyone will follow this standard for the time being, I will personally persuade Uncle Brett, the conditions here are still a bit difficult, and we will wait for our village in the future. Life here is gradually getting better, and everyone's subsidies can still increase." Suldak said with the final word.

……

By the evening of the third day, the first batch of sulfur mines had all been prepared, and they were put into canvas bags and hung on both sides of the saddle.Each horse carried two sacks of sulfur ore. There were a total of twenty horses carrying the cargo, and the remaining three horses were used exclusively for riding. The first sulfur ore transportation team in Wall Village was officially established.

Suldak, Charlie, and Val were in charge of transporting the first batch of sulfur mines back to Wall Village, while Luke and the other two young men stayed at the temporary camp on Bump Mountain to look after the sulfur mines. Before dawn on the fourth morning, Erdak, Charlie and Val led a series of horses and set foot on the road back to the village early.

After the horse team went out for about 30 miles, the floating volcanic ash in the sky was reduced to almost nothing, and when a small amount of sea buckthorn grass appeared on the limestone ground, a group of sand wolves appeared at the end of the horizon. The fur and the limestone could almost blend together. If it wasn't for their appearance from the height of the rock mass, Suldak might not be able to find their traces.

And this group of sand wolves probably discovered that there were only three people in Suldak's party, so they dared to appear behind the horse team so blatantly. At the front, it was a wolf king much larger than other sand wolves.

Charlie noticed that Suldak's horse stopped suddenly. He followed Suldak's gaze and saw the group of sand wolves in the distance. He was so frightened that he almost fell off the horse.

After Charlie calmed down, he realized that his side was a cavalry team, and if these horses ran, the sand wolves would not be able to catch up anyway, so he said to Suldak: "Dark, it's the group of sand wolves... let's hurry up!" Let's go, if you travel overnight, you can return to Wall Village in a day and a half, they don't dare to approach the human village easily, as long as..."

Chapter 263 Who Is the Prey?

A group of sand wolves fanned out behind the cavalry. Their running speed was not fast. To Suldak, they were only slightly faster than the cavalry. However, when a group of wolves surrounded the cavalry, they brought an inexplicable shock to the entire cavalry. pressure.

Charlie and Val looked worried. Even though they knew that it would be difficult for the sand wolves to catch up to the galloping horses, they still had an inexplicable fear of these sand wolves.

Val even suggested to Suldak that if the group of sand wolves really caught up, they would simply discard the sulfur ore bags on the road. Anyway, these sand wolves cannot swallow sulfur, and the horse team that lost their weight can completely avoid the sand wolves. Wait for the pack of sand wolves to retreat, and then return to pick up these sulfur mines again.

Or go directly back to Wall Village and gather people in the village. If the team has more than 20 people, these sand wolves will not dare to attack easily.

The three young men rode on horses, and while they were heading towards Wall Village, they discussed how to deal with the sand wolves trailing behind.

This is a group of experienced hunters, they are very patiently looking for the best hunting opportunity, when a pair of eyes full of murderous intent and forbearance are staring at the prey, they are a group of consistent actions.At least they will carry out the orders of the wolf king without compromise, and each wolf performs its own duties. This ability to cooperate with each other is second to none among junior monsters.

Suldak observed the sand wolves silently, and asked Charlie:

"The reason why they catch up is because they think we are few and treat us as prey?"

Charlie took a sip of water, hung the water bag around his waist again, wiped his mouth with his sleeve and said:

"This should be!"

The horse on his lap seemed to respond to the group of sand wolves behind him, and it was a little restless.

Charley, a novice rider, sat on his horse and swayed from side to side, trying to calm his horse down, sweating profusely.

At this moment, Suldak had another thought in his mind, and he said to Charlie:

"This group of sand wolves often haunts this area, and it has always been a threat to our cavalry. This time is also an opportunity for us. I am going to set a trap to lure them over and kill them, but I hope you two You can cooperate with me."

Charlie and Val looked at each other, with a hint of hesitation in their eyes.

"Are the three of us going to face this group of sand wolves?" Charlie looked around at the gentle slopes of limestone, and there was no cover at all, only a seabuckthorn plant emerged from some crevices, and was also covered by a layer of sand wolves. Covered with thin volcanic ash, there was no favorable terrain around to deal with the wolves, so Charlie said to Suldak: "Dark, calm down, those are a group of monsters!"

Suldak stopped, smiled at Charlie and said, "It's not the three of us, but me alone. I'll pretend to be injured and fall behind. You lead the cavalry to move forward. I don't think so." I will give up this hunting opportunity, don't worry about me, even if I can't kill them, I have a way to escape."

He looked back at the pack of wolves, the wolf king saw Suldak stop, and stopped in doubt, and the pack of wolves around him also stopped one after another, and the three of them were 800 meters away from the pack of wolves. Far away, the two sides faced each other quietly.

Suldak squinted his eyes, a gust of wind blew in, and among the flying volcanic ash, the group of sand wolves slowly approached again.

Suldak turned his head and glanced at Charlie and Val. Although these two young men were a little weaker in strength, they did not lack the courage to fight.

He said to them: "It's you two, I'm worried that some sand wolves will bypass me and continue to chase you. Once they catch up, they will unload all the cargo as Val said, and return to Wall with these horses. village."

Seeing that Suldak seemed determined to fight this group of sand wolves, Charlie could only grit his teeth and take out the alloy bow on his back, glanced at Val who was doing the same action beside him, and said to Suldak: : "Dark, let me and Val stay here too. We have an alloy bow in our hands, which can help you. At worst, we can shoot down two sand wolves..."

Suldak shook his head, "I'm worried that we will scare them away once we put on a fighting stance, so do as I say! Don't underestimate me, I'm a reserve knight!"

Suldak jumped off his horse, walked to Charlie and Val, patted their legs, and motioned for them to leave with the horse team.

"Uh, well, be careful with everything."

Seeing that Suldak insisted on this, Charlie and Val continued on their way, leaving Suldak alone.

Suldak unhurriedly took out four ceramic bowls from his magic pocket and placed them on the ground, skillfully ignited the faint blue flames in the bowls, knelt in the center with his hands clasped, and took out a shriveled The head of the evil spirit came and sacrificed.

A pale golden statue of a demon god appeared on the limestone ground. Surdak prayed to the side of the statue, and two beams of light fell on him continuously.

The wolf king standing in the distance seemed to sense the danger ahead, stopped in his tracks again, and let out a long roar.

'Aww...'

The wolves immediately divided into two teams, surrounding Suldak from the left and right sides.

At this moment, the demon statue turned into dots of golden light and disappeared into the wind and sand, while Suldak held a shield in one hand and a Roman sword in the other, facing the Sand Wolf King hundreds of meters away.

After the wolves surrounded Suldak, three emaciated sand wolves immediately left the wolves, hanging far behind the horse team.

The wolves howled incessantly, and then a piece of sand suddenly gushed out from around the sand wolves. After the yellow sand became one piece, Suldak found that the area surrounded by sand wolves In the area, yellow sand began to appear all over the sky, and the gravel felt a little painful when it hit the face.

The field of vision in front of Suldak was gradually blocked by the yellow sand. Only then did Suldak think that this group of sand wolves probably got their name from it.

Put the cotton mask back on to prevent the sand from getting into your nose and mouth.

Suldak took a step forward with his sword in hand, but felt his feet go soft, and one leg fell into the soft sand. At some point, there was so much yellow sand on this limestone mountain, and it was still a piece of quicksand , He only took a step, and his body sank.

Let yourself calm down, thinking in your heart: This is probably the natal magic of the monsters cast by those sand wolves.

Both legs quickly sank into the quicksand, and those quicksands were like the mouth of a giant beast, swallowing up Suldak's lower body, and Suldak tried his best to lean forward, letting himself lie on the surface of the quicksand , effortlessly raised one foot in the quicksand, pulled the foot out of the quicksand, and then he lay flat on the quicksand.

Just when he was about to pull out his second leg, there was a sudden sound of breaking through the sand and dust. Surdak subconsciously raised the iris shield in his hand, and a sand wolf emerged from the sand and dust. He bumped his head against the iris shield, and a layer of silver light emerged from the iris shield, blocking the sand wolf back at once.

Chapter 264 Killing the Wolf

Several sand wolves rushed to Suldak's side from the sand in one after another. These sand wolves were as tall as calves, but most of them had a skeleton, covered with gray wolf fur and bared their teeth. When he landed, he could see the deep purple gums, they let out a low roar, and they rushed towards Suldak almost at the same time.

At the critical moment, Suldak's other leg was also pulled out from the quicksand. He rolled hard on the sand with his shield in his arms, and several sand wolves couldn't bite. Erdak pressed on the sand, a cold light flashed by, and the Roman sword in Surdak's hand took advantage of the situation to cut off the sand wolf's two front legs.

The sand wolf instinctively lowered its body and wanted to run sideways, but it had no front legs, and its body was like a rolling gourd. The sand wolf immediately took its place and bit Suldak violently.

Several sand wolves attacked at the same time, even if Suldak was holding a shield, it would be difficult for him to cover everything. Two sand wolves bit the pant armor on Suldak's thigh. With good toughness, the two sand wolves didn't bite through. Suerdak kicked the two sand wolves away with his feet, and pierced the sand wolf that jumped in front of him through the throat with his sword. There was a bloodstain on Erdak's face.

Suldak threw off the wolf carcass on his body and escaped from the quicksand trap. Four sand wolves were biting the leather breastplate on the back of Suldak, just like Suldak was dragging four tails behind him. Just when Suldak turned around and swung his sword, those sand wolves quickly pushed away, and always threw two sand wolves out of his sight to attack him.

Fortunately, this set of monster leather armor on his body is considered genuine, and it blocked him from several sand wolf bites at critical moments.

The sand wolf wanted to throw Suldak to the ground, and then took advantage of the situation to bite his throat, but Suldak swung his shield frequently to block the sand wolf's pounce, and successfully escaped from the quicksand trap. A layer of silver light shield erupted, and the Roman sword in Suldak's hand made consecutive cuts, stabbing five sand wolves over.

There were several wolf carcasses lying on the sand, and the surrounding wolves did not dare to rush forward again.

At this time, a wolf king who was much larger than the other sand wolves rushed out of the dust, like a violent bull, staring at Suldak with cold eyes, and a pair of thick bear-like paws came from a height. When photographed, the sharp claw blade is almost half a foot long. Its left eye is golden in color, while its right eye is dark blue. There are three claw marks on the wolf king's face, which should be left when he fought with his own kind. under the traces.

It suddenly rushed up from the yellow sand all over the sky, and threw Suerdak down when he was caught off guard.

The iris shield in Suldak's hand blocked the claws that the wolf king had slapped, and the wolf king bit Suldak's Roman sword tightly, and one man and one wolf rolled along the sand. The wolf king weighed almost a thousand pounds, pressing on Suldak's body, almost making him breathless.

The wolf king wanted to pull Suldak back into the quicksand. Facing the sand wolf king who was several times heavier than himself, Suldak lost his advantage in strength. On Suerdak's left chest, it almost broke Suerdak's ribs.

The surrounding sand wolves also waited for the opportunity, wanting to bite from behind.

The Sand Wolf King let out a low growl of warning, and the surrounding wolves retreated hastily, whimpering.

A mass of holy light surged out of Suldak's body, and the Roman sword in his hand erupted into a light golden light instantly, and four sharp spikes shattered in response. Ke overlapped, and Suldak opened his eyes at the same time, let out a roar, and took the opportunity to pull the Roman sword out of Sand Wolf King's mouth.

The Roman sword cut a wound more than a foot long at the corner of the wolf king's mouth, extending all the way to its neck.

At the same time, the Sand Wolf King dragged Suldak into the quicksand again.

Suldak turned over and rode on the Sand Wolf King's back, and the Roman sword in his hand pierced into its body along the Wolf King's neck. Hitting the head hard, smashing it into a whimper, Tie Duan sandwiched a wolf's tail between his thighs, trying to escape from Suldak's side.

However, Suldak would not let the Sand Wolf King go so easily. He waved the iris shield in his hand continuously and slammed the Sand Wolf King on the head. The light gray mane on top of Sand Wolf King's head was caught, and the wolf king's head, which was the size of a bull's head, was cut off with a sword.

As soon as the sand wolf king died, all the quicksand transformed on the limestone ground disappeared. It was indeed the magic cast by the sand wolf king.

When the other sand wolves saw the wolf king conferring their heads, they were frightened by Suldak and ran away. The yellow sand in the sky also gradually dissipated as the wolves dispersed. Whistling, the Gubolai horse that fled far away immediately neighed and galloped from a distance.

Suldak grabbed the saddle and turned onto the horse in one go without slowing down the speed of the horse. He rode the horse and chased after the wolves...

……

When Charlie and Val rode their horses and came back again.

Seeing the corpses of sand wolves on the limestone ground, Suldak, who was soaked in blood, squatted halfway on the ground and was peeling off the skin of the sand wolves with a dagger. His eyes shone with some kind of deep cold light, short and short. The dagger moved back and forth along the fascia under the fur, peeling off the wolf fur from the sand wolf like undressing.

Suldak's body was covered with bite marks of sand wolves. In places where the leather armor had not been covered, the linen clothes were torn to pieces, exposing bloody arms. It was impossible to tell whether he was injured. After peeling it off and throwing it aside, he stood up, smiled triumphantly at Charlie, and said, "Why are you standing there? Why don't you hurry up and help?"

Although these sand wolf meat is hard and sour, it is also the meat of monsters after all. There is also a certain market in Hailansa City, and it is extremely rare meat for the villagers of Wall Village.

This time Suldak killed seventeen sand wolves in one go, and the rest fled in different directions, unable to catch up anyway.

The eyes of Charlie and Val were a little dull, and Charlie said in disbelief, "Duck, you actually killed all those sand wolves..."

Suldak walked to the next sand wolf, looking as if he was in a hurry, and said as he skinned, "There are still a dozen sand wolves that escaped, but I'm sure before these sand wolves advance again, I shouldn't dare to come back."

Val squatted in front of the wolf head of the Sand Wolf King, opened the wolf king's lips with his fingers, looked at the sharp wolf teeth inside curiously, and said, "I heard that the canine teeth of the Sand Wolf King can be polished into sharp bone daggers. I think it's sharp..."

"Hey, Val, go and bring those back, and find a way to transport these sand wolves back to the village!" Charlie said to Val.

Chapter 265 Dividing the meat

In order to transport all the sand wolf meat and fur back to Wall Village, the three young men had to leave thirty packs of sulfur mines on the way.

Although no one would pass by this Gobi Desert, Charlie still covered these sulfur mines tightly with limestone blocks. A wooden cross, and twenty horses shuttled through this barren land with a load of supplies.

Because the road was delayed for a long time, it took the three young people nearly three days to return to Wall Village. When the horse team full of supplies appeared in the village, almost all the villagers were overjoyed, and everyone crowded around the horse team. Followed the horse team to the threshing ground, next to the threshing ground is the large warehouse for storing public goods in the village. The old village head unlocked the heavy door lock with his own hands, and stored bags of sulfur ore in the warehouse.
