It takes about seven days to go from Yanyunguan to Beidi King City. In case of bad weather, the difficulty will be doubled. Those who are not familiar with the road conditions may be buried in the grassland and never be able to get out.

Although the Spring Festival in Dayan has passed now, in the cold north, spring is far from coming.

Everyone was worried about encountering rain and snow on the way, but on the fourth day, we inevitably encountered a heavy snowfall.

The wind and snow came hard and fast, so Chu Zhao gave up riding and got into the carriage.

General Timmu commanded the team to speed up and set up camp in an abandoned pasture before dark.

The nearby herdsmen had all moved to other places when winter first came, leaving only some dilapidated yurts and short walls made of stones.

The soldiers camped in the snow, boiled snow water to cook, and everyone had a makeshift meal of dried beef and mutton.

After nightfall, the wind and snow gradually subsided, and Chu Zhao couldn't sleep, so he walked out of the camp to check the weather.

The soldiers lit two bonfires in front of the tent. The white snow covered everything as far as the eye could see, reflecting the desolate world. No trace of life could be seen, as if this was a world cursed by death.

A'ao stood with her on the snow, looking at the vast surroundings, feeling an extreme desolation in her heart. She felt like a speck of dust on this eternal wasteland, a piece of snow, small, light, and fleeting. .

Some fragmented images were like snowflakes falling above his head, surrounding him one after another.

In the apocalyptic heavy snow, a man was running through the snow with a girl on his back, and the pursuers were approaching behind him.

"Put me down and leave me alone. One of us must be alive..."

The girl's face was pressed against the man's back, and her face could not be seen. The blood dripped red and stained the white snow under her feet. It was impossible to tell who was bleeding.

"No, we must die together, and we must live together." The man said firmly, "I said, as long as I still have breath, I will never leave you."

The scene changed, and in the same heavy snowfall, a man was lying in the arms of a woman, with several arrows in his body, and he was dying.

"You hurry up, otherwise it will be too late..."

"It's too late, it's too late, I won't leave you." The woman said, "Have you forgotten, you said that as long as you still have breath, you will never leave me."

"I said I will never leave you, but you can leave me." The man pushed her, "Let's go quickly. If I die, you have to live for me and see for me what a peaceful age is like." …”

The scene turned again, and in the heavy snow, a thin figure was trudging through the endless snowfield. The cold wind was biting, and his little body was about to collapse at any time.

"No, I can't fall, I can't die, I want to go back to Liangzhou, I want to find Eminem..." He murmured, and his tears fell on the snow one by one.

The scene turned again, and in the dark night, a raging fire soared into the sky. The boy woke up from his sleep, choking on the thick smoke and coughing loudly.

The doors and windows were all sealed, and no one responded to his calls for help. A burned beam fell hard on him.

At the critical moment, a figure rushed over and pulled him away, leading him through the flames.

"Go quickly, go as far as you want, never come back, don't tell anyone your identity, just pretend you've never been here..."

"Kings!"

Aao was excited and grabbed Chu Zhao's hand.

"My lord, I remembered!"

Chu Zhao was startled and asked him quickly: "What did you remember?"

"I remember who I am..."

Aao held her hand, his whole body trembling slightly.

Just as he was about to tell her the picture in his mind, a shrill howl suddenly came from the distance.

"What's the sound?" asked the patrolling soldier next to him.

"It's a wolf! It's a wolf!" The companion shouted, "The wolf is coming, hurry up, tell the general, the wolf is coming..."

A'ao's unspoken words were startled back, and he looked at where Chu Zhao and Chu Zhao were howling at the same time.

On the vast snow, more than a dozen vigorous beast figures were flying towards this side.

"It's really a wolf, wake up everyone." Chu Zhao shouted.

General Timur had heard the noise and rushed out of the tent, shouting orders for everyone to come out and prepare for battle.

General Xiao and Tie Zhui also ran out and protected Chu Zhao immediately.

"Don't worry about me, just give me a sword." Chu Zhao said.

That night, Timu's men kidnapped her, but her Zhaoxi sword remained in Huaizhou City.

Iron Hammer's hammer was not around either, so he temporarily found a long spear and a sword for Chu Zhao to defend himself.

Chu Zhao walked up to General Timu with his sword in hand and said to him: "Let people bring the horses over and take care of them. Find more firewood and pile them up around them. First scare the wolves, and then kill them with bows and arrows. At the last moment, don’t fight them in close combat.”

"Okay, I understand." General Timur nodded, loudly ordering the soldiers to lead the horses and light the fire, and asked all the archers to get ready.

But there were less than a hundred people in their trip, and the number of archers and bows was limited. The wolves on the grassland were very cunning and would not just stand there and wait for them to shoot arrows. Moreover, it was windy and snowing at this time. , the field of vision is not good, and even the sharp archer cannot guarantee a perfect hit.

The Wolf King was still howling in the sky not far away. Hearing his call, more and more wolves came from all directions and arrived almost instantly, surrounding the camp. There were forty or fifty in number.

The Wolf King is a tall and muscular gray wolf. A pair of ferocious green eyes stared coldly at the group of prey that had finally been discovered, as if assessing their strength.

General Tiemu took out his scimitar and held it in his hand, and said to Chu Zhao: "A wolf pack usually only has a dozen wolves. So many came tonight, which shows that the wolves in this area are hungry and eager to find food. Start hunting in groups.”

He knew, not only Chu Zhao, that food was scarce in the grasslands in winter, but when it snowed, it was even more difficult to find food. These wolves must have been hungry for a long time. If there weren't a lot of fires around, they would have pounced on them long ago.

Chu Zhao clenched the sword in his hand and looked at those hungry eyes, his nerves were tense to the extreme.

The originally silent grassland was instantly filled with the smell of death due to the appearance of the wolves.

Both sides stared across the fire, neither one daring to move first.

But the fire will eventually burn out. If you compete with a wolf for endurance, you may not win.

The two sides faced off for a long time. Seeing the flames of the fire fading and the horses becoming more and more restless, General Timur had no choice but to attack first and loudly ordered the archers to fire.

Following the order, a row of arrows were fired at the wolves from all sides. Immediately, one of the wolves fell to the ground after being hit by an arrow, howling in pain.

The wolf king also howled and commanded the wolves to fight.

The wolf that was not hit by the arrow jumped over the fire and rushed towards the crowd.

The archers strung their bows again, but it was not easy to hit the running and jumping wolves. Many arrows missed their targets in the wind and snow and fell to the ground.

The wolf, which had escaped twice, no longer gave them a third chance to draw its bow, and howled and pounced on them.

"Archers retreat, cover with swords and guns." General Temmu gave the order loudly, directing the soldiers with weapons to step forward and replace the archers.

The wolves rushed over and a melee broke out.

Aao slashed at the attacking wolf with his sword while keeping an eye on Chu Zhao's situation.

In order to protect General Xiao, Iron Hammer no longer cares about Chu Zhao.

General Timmu not only had to command the battle, but also had to fight the wolves himself, and also take care of the horses from being attacked by the wolves. He was the busiest among them all.

The Wolf King remained still and calmly observed the battle situation on the spot. After some observation and analysis, he rushed towards General Timu with a sure-kill force.

It is well versed in the principle of capturing the thief first, and it has also seen that General Timur is the leader of this group of people. Only by killing General Timur first can it achieve the final victory.

Of course, it also knew the bravery of General Timur. While running, it called a companion, and the two wolves attacked General Timur.

Chu Zhao had just slashed down a wolf with his sword, and out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw General Timu being bitten on the arm by a wolf. The wolf king was biting his throat with its bloody mouth.

"Temu! Be careful!" Chu Zhao yelled. Without any time to think, he rushed over quickly and threw the long sword in his hand, hitting the Wolf King in the back.

The Wolf King was in pain, howling and turned around and rushed towards Chu Zhao.
