Huangfurui's successful assist allowed Zhong Lixuan to obtain the status of an envoy. The envoy's trip was very beautiful. The guards escorted Zhong Lixuan through three post stations and arrived at the outskirts of the capital. The guards returned home and brought what they needed. Take a few guards on the road alone.
Zhonglixuan Chuci stunned several subordinates sent by Huangfurui and threw them into the cellar. He and Zhonglixuan rode the prepared hot air balloon at night and left Yuanxu quietly.
The cold wind was hunting high in the sky, Chu Ci and Zhong Lixuan were tightly wrapped, a simple shed was built under the hot air balloon, and an animal skin sail that could adjust the direction was set up above the hot air balloon, and the two hid In the shed, snuggling together, with hot water bottles stuffed in their arms.
The fuel was burning under the hot air balloon, and Chuci's self-made blower continuously blows oxygen into the bottom of the hot air balloon. Only in this way can the hot air balloon not be extinguished due to the high-altitude cold current, and it can also make the two of them somewhat warm.
But even so, after a few hours, a thin layer of ice was still attached to the hot air balloon.
Chu Ci and Zhong Lixuan smashed the ice shell with tools, and after a while, the clothes were also covered with a layer of ice slag. The two of them patted off the ice slag, drank hot ginger tea, changed the hot water bottle, and put the whole body to sleep. Covered tightly, he wobbled and flew towards his destination.
Traveling in a hot air balloon in winter is not an easy task. After a few hours, the hot air balloon flew to a certain height, and it became colder and colder. Even the exhaled air of the two of them could immediately turn into ice particles and fall down. ,? Chu Ci looked at Zhong Lixuan: "Can you hold on? If you can't hold on, let me warm you up."
Zhong Lixuan shook his head when he heard the first half of the sentence, and nodded hurriedly when he heard the second half of the sentence. Only a small circle was exposed on his face surrounded by the fox fur, and his eyes were round. He leaned over and hugged Chu Ci.
The boy's brown pupils were clear and sparkling, and the exposed eyelashes were covered with a layer of hoarfrost. Seeing this, Chu Ci untied the cloak and wrapped the boy in his arms, letting the boy draw warmth from himself.
Zhong Lixuan's eyes were bent, and he rubbed Chuci's tightly bound chin with attachment.
The two stayed close together, keeping the severe cold out of their bodies. After two hours, they smashed the ice shell on the hot air balloon, and flew all the way towards the grassland with the howling north wind.
On the fifth day of the flight, it suddenly snowed, and even with a telescope, it was impossible to check the situation below. Chuci calculated the distance, and he had not reached the destination yet, but the distance was not far, and they could not directly land on someone's place. After flying for half a day, the hot air balloon landed in an open space after the fire was turned off at noon the next day.
After digging the hot air balloon and burying it, Chu Ci took out the compass and looked at it: "It's in this direction, it's snowing, and there are wolves wandering in the grassland, as long as they smell a little human scent, they will follow them, even if the hot air balloon is buried It's not necessarily safe, we have to speed up and find a place to live before dark."
Zhong Lixuan stood up and looked around the endless grassland, with Chu Cicai beside him, he felt extremely at ease: "Okay."
The two packed up their things and ate some food, then started to speed up.
After Chu Ci and Zhong Lixuan left for a while, a few wolves came running from a distance. The wolves sniffed around. When they smelled people, they immediately became excited. They dug open the earth pit where the hot air balloon was buried, and twitched their noses. He sniffed the animal skin bag, raised his head, and howled towards the sky.
Chu Ci and Zhong Lixuan, who were walking far away, were startled when they heard the faint howling of wolves.
"It's a pack of wolves." Chu Ci took out the weapon and handed it to Zhong Lixuan, "This is a shotgun, shoot when you see wolves, this is a gun, it can scare some wolves away."
Before setting off, Chu Ci thought that he might encounter wolves. In his previous life, he came to the grassland a few years later. It was the season of grazing. The herdsmen would hold wolf hunting activities in the beginning of spring to drive the wolves to the desert. In China, the grasslands are relatively safe, but when the herdsmen leave in winter, wolves will roam and hunt in groups on the grasslands.
Just in case, in addition to making light and easy-to-carry firecrackers, he also made more lethal shotguns and expulsion guns.
The pack of wolves came running following the scent, and the howling of wolves was getting closer and closer.
The two waited in line, and after the first two wolves showed their shadows, Chu Ci first threw a gun to scare some wolves away, and raised his gun: "Here we come."
"Boom—" A gunshot rang out, and the wolves running in the distance fell to the ground in response. The wolf was killed and fell to the ground.
Zhong Lixuan had been taught by Chu Ci before he set off, but he hadn't hit a moving target yet, so his face was sullen and he looked extremely nervous. He aimed like Chu Ci, pulled the trigger, and the first shot missed the wolf. The bullet hit the wolf's front paw, and Zhong Lixuan's eyes lit up, who thought he would miss.
"It seems that you are very talented at playing guns. Try again." Chu Ci could kill a wolf with a single shot. Seeing that there were more than a dozen wolves running over, and it was not a very large pack, he breathed a sigh of relief and put down With the gun in his hand, he took Zhong Lixuan's hand and aimed at a wolf that was rushing towards him again.
"Don't hesitate, shoot when aiming, and learn to predict the opponent's trajectory, let go!" After the words fell, Zhong Lixuan pulled the trigger, and the throat of the wolf that had already jumped in front of him was caught. It pierced through and flew out backwards.
"Very good." Seeing that Zhong Lixuan was so talented, Chu Ci couldn't help smiling. He seemed to have returned to the time when he trained recruits, but at that time the soldiers he trained were equipped with laser guns, and the enemies they killed , but better equipped humans.
Another wolf detoured behind and jumped up like lightning. Its ferocious fangs approached the two of them. Chu Ci kicked the huge wolf away and made another shot.
"Wow——" Then a wolf stopped with its tail clamped in horror, and Zhong Lixuan immediately shot.
Blood flowers bloomed under his feet, Zhong Lixuan was both excited and unspeakably fearful, he looked sideways at Chu Ci, and noticed that the young man's eyes had a different kind of brilliance, and the trace of fear dissipated instantly.
Just being stared at by Chu Ci with such admiration, he felt his blood boiling, and the fear of encountering a wolf in a strange place, and the insecurity of killing wild animals disappeared. Zhong Lixuan took a deep breath, imitating Chu Ci's Look, another shot.
Right between the eyebrows of a wolf.
"You are really a genius." Liu Guang flashed across Chu Ci's eyes. He himself is proficient in all weapons. This kind of handy ability for weapons is honed by him in years of battles before traveling through time. It is a bloody brand in his soul, like Zhong Lixuan. It is indeed extremely rare for Chu Ci to hit 100% of the weapons when he touches them.
After being praised by Chu Ci, Zhong Lixuan's last trace of uneasiness dissipated completely. He felt that a certain instinct in himself was being awakened, and a sense of competitiveness suddenly emerged: "We are comparing who has killed more wolves."
"There's no need to compare, because I won't lose." With a smile on his lips, Chu Ci raised his hand and shot twice in a row, killing the last two wolves.
Chu Ci blew the smoke off the gun barrel, knelt down and took the snow to wipe the hot barrel.
The corpses of the wolves that were killed were piled up on the ground, Zhong Lixuan counted them, out of eleven wolves, he killed only four, the other seven were all shot by Chu Ci.
Zhong Lixuan checked the holes of the guns one by one to prevent any wolves from dying. After a while, he found something was wrong.
"Hey, why are there ropes tied to the feet of these two wolves?" Zhong Lixuan pawed at the wolf's paws.
Chu Ci put the gun away, checked the wolf's paws, and his face changed slightly: "No, these wolves are sacred beasts supported by a certain tribe. Since the wolves have appeared, the people of that tribe may be nearby. We have to hide"
"Divine beast?" Zhong Lixuan asked in confusion seeing Chu Ci's expression was not good.
Chu Ci nodded: "Many years ago there was a tribe that believed in the wolf god. Every winter when the wolves had no food, they would drive the old, weak, and disabled members of the tribe to feed the wolves, and even rob other tribes. Children and women fed the wolves, making the wolves on the grassland non-human. Their brutal behavior angered other tribes on the grassland, and they drove that tribe and the wolves into the depths of the desert."
But now apparently the people of that tribe have returned, and the rope on the wolf's paw is the symbol of the beast they worship. Only the wolf that ate ten young children will be tied with this kind of rope, which means the living beast god.
The tribe that worships the wolf clan is fierce and brutal but very good at fighting. It once exterminated several tribes on the grassland, and was not expelled until later by other tribes united with Yuanxu's army.Thinking about it now, Yelusu and the eldest prince were fighting for the throne and had no time to suppress this tribe, so they took the opportunity to come back from the depths of the desert to make a comeback.
Zhong Lixuan was stunned, and couldn't even believe that there were such cruel people in the world. Chu Ci made a decisive decision, first erased their footprints in the snow, found a low-lying place, and dug out the snow. He and Zhonglixuan were short Hiding under the snow, he chewed two mouthfuls of snow to cover up his breathing, then filled his mouth with snow, and covered his mouth and nose with his hands to prevent showing his feet.
Just after hiding for a while, I heard the howling of humans imitating the howling of wolves in the distance, and the sound of horseshoes approaching quickly.
After a while, the sound of horseshoes stopped near the piled up wolf carcasses, and there was a burst of exclamation, and the pursuers shouted in horror, "Damn it, who killed our wolf god!"
"Audacious heretics! Let's go after them, catch these people back, and peel off their skins to appease the wolf god's wrath!"
Amidst the passionate cursing, mixed with bursts of low sobbing and moaning, Chu Ci and Zhong Lixuan looked through a gap left in the snow and saw a few sturdy men riding horses .
More than a dozen scantily clad women, old, weak and half-grown children were dragged behind the horses with their hands tied. They had been dragged for an unknown distance. Some of them fell to the ground covered in blood. It is invisible.
In order to vent his anger, the man on the horse lashed two whips on a crumbling child who was bleeding from the soles of his feet. The child who was about to freeze was ripped apart and fell stiffly to the ground, immediately silent.
Seeing this, a woman behind her roared like a broken and hoarse voice: "My child, my child!"
The woman rushed over to check on her son, but the man on the horse whipped the woman to the ground with two more whips. Seeing that the woman could not get up for a long time, several people said with contempt: "Yuanxu's delicate skin and tender flesh are classics." If you don't want to fight, just feed the wolf god so that the wolf god can eat more."
The other man looked into the distance, frowned and said, "Boss, let's catch those who offended the wolf god first, and after we catch them and sacrifice to the wolf god, we have to meet up with the little prince, and the time is running out."
"That's right, reuniting with the little prince is more important. This is related to the important matter of offering sacrifices to the wolf god in the future. Only the little prince can generously sell Yuanxu's prisoners of war to us to worship the wolf god. The sacrifices to the wolf god have already been used up. If you don't add new wolf gods, you will be angry."
The leader replied, as soon as he pulled the rope, he was about to ride his horse forward.
At this moment, the woman who had just been knocked down on the ground suddenly got up from the ground and rushed up, grabbing the leading man's whip. The man was suddenly dragged off the horse, and the woman who lost her son rushed forward and opened her mouth He bit the man's throat tightly.
"You are looking for death!" The man who was dragged down was furious, and he kicked the poor woman desperately. The woman who lost her son was beaten with blood all over her face. She was already beaten to the point of losing her shape, but her eyes were like wolves. , He will not let go of his death.
Seeing that the man's throat was about to be bitten, the other big men drew out their scimitars and were about to cut him off.
The woman's blood-soaked eyes stared at these villains, with despair flashing across her eyes, but she still didn't let go.
Seeing that the sharp blade is about to fall.
"Bam—"
"Bam—"
Two shots were fired.
Chu Ci and Zhong Lixuan, who were hiding in the snow, jumped out at the same time, and the two of them shot one by one, directly killing the two who did it.
Chu Ci didn't want to kill people at first, but the people in front of him were really frenzied. Without any hesitation, Chu Ci directly shot the man on horseback to death on the spot.
Everything happened so suddenly, until several people on horseback fell to the ground with a bang, kicking up a cloud of white snow, and the people who were tied up still didn't recover.
These people who were sacrificed to the wolf god have been tortured for too long. Except for the woman who was sober because her child was beaten to death, everyone else was in a daze. When Chu Ci and Zhong Lixuan approached, those people Also no response.
Only the bitten woman raised her head, glanced at the two of them, bloody tears flowed down her face, her lips squirmed and said something, before the two could get close to hear what he said, the woman shook her head Crooked, out of breath.
This group of people was dragged all the way in the heavy snow, and those who were in poor health were already at the end of their strength, not to mention that the woman was kicked to the head by a man on horseback. Chu Ci and Zhong Lixuan turned the woman's eyes solemnly Closed, they cut off the ropes of the remaining survivors who were tied up, picked up the wolf carcasses that had been dead for a while, and piled them together to keep them warm.
Chu Ci scraped through the snowdrifts, gathered dry grass and sticks and lit a fire. A group of people gathered around the fire, and the faces of the captives who had been tortured to the point of being out of shape showed a little aura that a living person should have.
The first one to come alive was an older child, he knelt on the ground trembling, and said in Yuan Xu's official words, "Thank you benefactor for saving us, thank you benefactor!"
The other rescued people also knelt down on the ground, and kowtowed to Chu Ci and Zhong Lixuan in unison, and the other two were weeping while kowtow, but the strong wind blew past, and the faces of those people Tears also turned into ice grains.
Chu Ci said in a deep voice: "Can you survive on your knees? If you want to live, you take off the clothes of those dead people and put them on, and then peel off the wolf skins with me and wrap them up. If you can still move, let's roast wolf meat together." .”
As he spoke, he cut up the wolf carcass neatly, peeled the skin first and then cut the meat, skewered the cut meat on the knife and handed it to a half-grown child beside him.
The child was so hungry that his eyes were blue, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva looking at the bloody raw meat, and put the meat on the fire with shaking hands.
The other people also gradually came to their senses, and they all began to follow Chuci's instructions.
Chu Ci was processing the wolf carcasses here, while Zhong Lixuan untied the tools from the horse on the other side. When he saw earthen jars, porcelain bowls, and medicines, he set up the earthen jars and put them in snow, turned them into water and poured them into the bowls. For the few who have suffered.
Two hours later.
Although the dozens of survivors were still wounded, but fortunately their spirits slowly recovered. One of them was wrapped in a wolf skin, and some of them were wearing ill-fitting clothes, devouring the roasted wolf meat. After drinking the concoction made by Zhong Lixuan, he looked at Chu Ci and Zhong Lixuan with a pair of eyes.
"Who are you and why are you here?" Chu Ci asked.
An elderly man raised his head, as if he hadn't spoken a complete sentence for many years, Yuan Xu's words stumbled: "We are originally from Yuanxu, and these young people are our descendants. In the early years when Yuanxu and Donghu fought, After the defeat, we all became prisoners of war. The Donghu people asked us to herd sheep and horses. We wanted to escape to our hometown, so they tied us up and sold us to the Heluo tribe as living sacrifices, saying that the wolf god likes to eat Yuanxu people. Children are used to feed wolf gods."
The half-grown children nodded, their expressions dull.
The old man's expression was also numb and indifferent: "The woman who was beaten to death just now is my daughter. When she was alive...she was bullied by those beasts, and the child she gave birth was fed to the wolf god. This is the last child. He died too. It’s okay to die, for us human sacrifices, death is the only relief. I remember that there were thousands of us at the beginning, but now, there are only a few of us left.”
The cold wind was howling, and the surviving Yuan Xu people seemed to have no will to live at all, their faces eroded by the wind and snow were exhausted, Zhong Lixuan closed his eyes, tears were floating in his eyes.
"Chu Ci and I will take you back."
The young man opened his eyes and looked around at the people in front of him. He clenched his hands tightly, his nails deeply embedded in his palms, and his childish face was now only stern, "Hui Yuanxu."
He had never thought about what it means to be a prince. Whether it is real or fake, the name of prince is just a gimmick, a name that can make him and Chuci temporarily worry-free, but at this moment, Zhong Lixuan has something in his heart made a decision.
He used to think that no one could change all of this, but now, he has Chuci, the omnipotent Chuci, and he has nothing to fear.
If he could do something with his vain and ridiculous identity, he now has only one idea—to change Yuan Xu, to change the world, so that there will be no more people in the world who suffer from the death of their parents, wives and children.
"We can't go back, we can't go back." The old man who spoke earlier shook his head and smiled bitterly, his eyes became cloudier, "Home is too far away, and we can't find the way home."
"If we can go back, we not only have to go back, but also let the Heluo people and Donghu people pay with their blood." Chu Ci's voice was cold.
The rescued children looked up and looked at Chu Ci together.
Chu Ci looked around, and said in a cold voice: "Engrave blood hatred in your bones, don't forget, use this hatred to temper your flesh and blood, remember the pain you have suffered, whether it is ten years, eight years, or even a hundred years That's fine, don't forget this kind of shame, you will have a chance to avenge yourself."
There were tiny glimmers of light struggling in the eyes of the dull-looking people.
Chu Ci said again: "If you feel that hatred is too bitter, you can forget about it all and start over."
"No, I want revenge." One of them gritted his teeth when he heard the words, "I will never forget this bloody revenge in my life. I want revenge."
"Yes, we want revenge!"
"Forget this great enmity, you will be a son of man in vain, and you will come to this world in vain."
The numbness of the children who were raised as human animals faded away, and their faces were full of hatred.
Chu Ci looked at these teenagers and nodded: "Since you have made up your mind, we will try our best to bring you back to Yuan Xu and settle them down, and give you a chance to take revenge. Whether you can take revenge or not is up to you."
"Thank you benefactor!" This time, it was the decadent old man who had hope in his eyes. He bowed down and bowed down, but couldn't help crying.
The author has something to say: thanks to the little angel who irrigated the nutrient solution: 25019889? 47 bottles;
Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
Zhonglixuan Chuci stunned several subordinates sent by Huangfurui and threw them into the cellar. He and Zhonglixuan rode the prepared hot air balloon at night and left Yuanxu quietly.
The cold wind was hunting high in the sky, Chu Ci and Zhong Lixuan were tightly wrapped, a simple shed was built under the hot air balloon, and an animal skin sail that could adjust the direction was set up above the hot air balloon, and the two hid In the shed, snuggling together, with hot water bottles stuffed in their arms.
The fuel was burning under the hot air balloon, and Chuci's self-made blower continuously blows oxygen into the bottom of the hot air balloon. Only in this way can the hot air balloon not be extinguished due to the high-altitude cold current, and it can also make the two of them somewhat warm.
But even so, after a few hours, a thin layer of ice was still attached to the hot air balloon.
Chu Ci and Zhong Lixuan smashed the ice shell with tools, and after a while, the clothes were also covered with a layer of ice slag. The two of them patted off the ice slag, drank hot ginger tea, changed the hot water bottle, and put the whole body to sleep. Covered tightly, he wobbled and flew towards his destination.
Traveling in a hot air balloon in winter is not an easy task. After a few hours, the hot air balloon flew to a certain height, and it became colder and colder. Even the exhaled air of the two of them could immediately turn into ice particles and fall down. ,? Chu Ci looked at Zhong Lixuan: "Can you hold on? If you can't hold on, let me warm you up."
Zhong Lixuan shook his head when he heard the first half of the sentence, and nodded hurriedly when he heard the second half of the sentence. Only a small circle was exposed on his face surrounded by the fox fur, and his eyes were round. He leaned over and hugged Chu Ci.
The boy's brown pupils were clear and sparkling, and the exposed eyelashes were covered with a layer of hoarfrost. Seeing this, Chu Ci untied the cloak and wrapped the boy in his arms, letting the boy draw warmth from himself.
Zhong Lixuan's eyes were bent, and he rubbed Chuci's tightly bound chin with attachment.
The two stayed close together, keeping the severe cold out of their bodies. After two hours, they smashed the ice shell on the hot air balloon, and flew all the way towards the grassland with the howling north wind.
On the fifth day of the flight, it suddenly snowed, and even with a telescope, it was impossible to check the situation below. Chuci calculated the distance, and he had not reached the destination yet, but the distance was not far, and they could not directly land on someone's place. After flying for half a day, the hot air balloon landed in an open space after the fire was turned off at noon the next day.
After digging the hot air balloon and burying it, Chu Ci took out the compass and looked at it: "It's in this direction, it's snowing, and there are wolves wandering in the grassland, as long as they smell a little human scent, they will follow them, even if the hot air balloon is buried It's not necessarily safe, we have to speed up and find a place to live before dark."
Zhong Lixuan stood up and looked around the endless grassland, with Chu Cicai beside him, he felt extremely at ease: "Okay."
The two packed up their things and ate some food, then started to speed up.
After Chu Ci and Zhong Lixuan left for a while, a few wolves came running from a distance. The wolves sniffed around. When they smelled people, they immediately became excited. They dug open the earth pit where the hot air balloon was buried, and twitched their noses. He sniffed the animal skin bag, raised his head, and howled towards the sky.
Chu Ci and Zhong Lixuan, who were walking far away, were startled when they heard the faint howling of wolves.
"It's a pack of wolves." Chu Ci took out the weapon and handed it to Zhong Lixuan, "This is a shotgun, shoot when you see wolves, this is a gun, it can scare some wolves away."
Before setting off, Chu Ci thought that he might encounter wolves. In his previous life, he came to the grassland a few years later. It was the season of grazing. The herdsmen would hold wolf hunting activities in the beginning of spring to drive the wolves to the desert. In China, the grasslands are relatively safe, but when the herdsmen leave in winter, wolves will roam and hunt in groups on the grasslands.
Just in case, in addition to making light and easy-to-carry firecrackers, he also made more lethal shotguns and expulsion guns.
The pack of wolves came running following the scent, and the howling of wolves was getting closer and closer.
The two waited in line, and after the first two wolves showed their shadows, Chu Ci first threw a gun to scare some wolves away, and raised his gun: "Here we come."
"Boom—" A gunshot rang out, and the wolves running in the distance fell to the ground in response. The wolf was killed and fell to the ground.
Zhong Lixuan had been taught by Chu Ci before he set off, but he hadn't hit a moving target yet, so his face was sullen and he looked extremely nervous. He aimed like Chu Ci, pulled the trigger, and the first shot missed the wolf. The bullet hit the wolf's front paw, and Zhong Lixuan's eyes lit up, who thought he would miss.
"It seems that you are very talented at playing guns. Try again." Chu Ci could kill a wolf with a single shot. Seeing that there were more than a dozen wolves running over, and it was not a very large pack, he breathed a sigh of relief and put down With the gun in his hand, he took Zhong Lixuan's hand and aimed at a wolf that was rushing towards him again.
"Don't hesitate, shoot when aiming, and learn to predict the opponent's trajectory, let go!" After the words fell, Zhong Lixuan pulled the trigger, and the throat of the wolf that had already jumped in front of him was caught. It pierced through and flew out backwards.
"Very good." Seeing that Zhong Lixuan was so talented, Chu Ci couldn't help smiling. He seemed to have returned to the time when he trained recruits, but at that time the soldiers he trained were equipped with laser guns, and the enemies they killed , but better equipped humans.
Another wolf detoured behind and jumped up like lightning. Its ferocious fangs approached the two of them. Chu Ci kicked the huge wolf away and made another shot.
"Wow——" Then a wolf stopped with its tail clamped in horror, and Zhong Lixuan immediately shot.
Blood flowers bloomed under his feet, Zhong Lixuan was both excited and unspeakably fearful, he looked sideways at Chu Ci, and noticed that the young man's eyes had a different kind of brilliance, and the trace of fear dissipated instantly.
Just being stared at by Chu Ci with such admiration, he felt his blood boiling, and the fear of encountering a wolf in a strange place, and the insecurity of killing wild animals disappeared. Zhong Lixuan took a deep breath, imitating Chu Ci's Look, another shot.
Right between the eyebrows of a wolf.
"You are really a genius." Liu Guang flashed across Chu Ci's eyes. He himself is proficient in all weapons. This kind of handy ability for weapons is honed by him in years of battles before traveling through time. It is a bloody brand in his soul, like Zhong Lixuan. It is indeed extremely rare for Chu Ci to hit 100% of the weapons when he touches them.
After being praised by Chu Ci, Zhong Lixuan's last trace of uneasiness dissipated completely. He felt that a certain instinct in himself was being awakened, and a sense of competitiveness suddenly emerged: "We are comparing who has killed more wolves."
"There's no need to compare, because I won't lose." With a smile on his lips, Chu Ci raised his hand and shot twice in a row, killing the last two wolves.
Chu Ci blew the smoke off the gun barrel, knelt down and took the snow to wipe the hot barrel.
The corpses of the wolves that were killed were piled up on the ground, Zhong Lixuan counted them, out of eleven wolves, he killed only four, the other seven were all shot by Chu Ci.
Zhong Lixuan checked the holes of the guns one by one to prevent any wolves from dying. After a while, he found something was wrong.
"Hey, why are there ropes tied to the feet of these two wolves?" Zhong Lixuan pawed at the wolf's paws.
Chu Ci put the gun away, checked the wolf's paws, and his face changed slightly: "No, these wolves are sacred beasts supported by a certain tribe. Since the wolves have appeared, the people of that tribe may be nearby. We have to hide"
"Divine beast?" Zhong Lixuan asked in confusion seeing Chu Ci's expression was not good.
Chu Ci nodded: "Many years ago there was a tribe that believed in the wolf god. Every winter when the wolves had no food, they would drive the old, weak, and disabled members of the tribe to feed the wolves, and even rob other tribes. Children and women fed the wolves, making the wolves on the grassland non-human. Their brutal behavior angered other tribes on the grassland, and they drove that tribe and the wolves into the depths of the desert."
But now apparently the people of that tribe have returned, and the rope on the wolf's paw is the symbol of the beast they worship. Only the wolf that ate ten young children will be tied with this kind of rope, which means the living beast god.
The tribe that worships the wolf clan is fierce and brutal but very good at fighting. It once exterminated several tribes on the grassland, and was not expelled until later by other tribes united with Yuanxu's army.Thinking about it now, Yelusu and the eldest prince were fighting for the throne and had no time to suppress this tribe, so they took the opportunity to come back from the depths of the desert to make a comeback.
Zhong Lixuan was stunned, and couldn't even believe that there were such cruel people in the world. Chu Ci made a decisive decision, first erased their footprints in the snow, found a low-lying place, and dug out the snow. He and Zhonglixuan were short Hiding under the snow, he chewed two mouthfuls of snow to cover up his breathing, then filled his mouth with snow, and covered his mouth and nose with his hands to prevent showing his feet.
Just after hiding for a while, I heard the howling of humans imitating the howling of wolves in the distance, and the sound of horseshoes approaching quickly.
After a while, the sound of horseshoes stopped near the piled up wolf carcasses, and there was a burst of exclamation, and the pursuers shouted in horror, "Damn it, who killed our wolf god!"
"Audacious heretics! Let's go after them, catch these people back, and peel off their skins to appease the wolf god's wrath!"
Amidst the passionate cursing, mixed with bursts of low sobbing and moaning, Chu Ci and Zhong Lixuan looked through a gap left in the snow and saw a few sturdy men riding horses .
More than a dozen scantily clad women, old, weak and half-grown children were dragged behind the horses with their hands tied. They had been dragged for an unknown distance. Some of them fell to the ground covered in blood. It is invisible.
In order to vent his anger, the man on the horse lashed two whips on a crumbling child who was bleeding from the soles of his feet. The child who was about to freeze was ripped apart and fell stiffly to the ground, immediately silent.
Seeing this, a woman behind her roared like a broken and hoarse voice: "My child, my child!"
The woman rushed over to check on her son, but the man on the horse whipped the woman to the ground with two more whips. Seeing that the woman could not get up for a long time, several people said with contempt: "Yuanxu's delicate skin and tender flesh are classics." If you don't want to fight, just feed the wolf god so that the wolf god can eat more."
The other man looked into the distance, frowned and said, "Boss, let's catch those who offended the wolf god first, and after we catch them and sacrifice to the wolf god, we have to meet up with the little prince, and the time is running out."
"That's right, reuniting with the little prince is more important. This is related to the important matter of offering sacrifices to the wolf god in the future. Only the little prince can generously sell Yuanxu's prisoners of war to us to worship the wolf god. The sacrifices to the wolf god have already been used up. If you don't add new wolf gods, you will be angry."
The leader replied, as soon as he pulled the rope, he was about to ride his horse forward.
At this moment, the woman who had just been knocked down on the ground suddenly got up from the ground and rushed up, grabbing the leading man's whip. The man was suddenly dragged off the horse, and the woman who lost her son rushed forward and opened her mouth He bit the man's throat tightly.
"You are looking for death!" The man who was dragged down was furious, and he kicked the poor woman desperately. The woman who lost her son was beaten with blood all over her face. She was already beaten to the point of losing her shape, but her eyes were like wolves. , He will not let go of his death.
Seeing that the man's throat was about to be bitten, the other big men drew out their scimitars and were about to cut him off.
The woman's blood-soaked eyes stared at these villains, with despair flashing across her eyes, but she still didn't let go.
Seeing that the sharp blade is about to fall.
"Bam—"
"Bam—"
Two shots were fired.
Chu Ci and Zhong Lixuan, who were hiding in the snow, jumped out at the same time, and the two of them shot one by one, directly killing the two who did it.
Chu Ci didn't want to kill people at first, but the people in front of him were really frenzied. Without any hesitation, Chu Ci directly shot the man on horseback to death on the spot.
Everything happened so suddenly, until several people on horseback fell to the ground with a bang, kicking up a cloud of white snow, and the people who were tied up still didn't recover.
These people who were sacrificed to the wolf god have been tortured for too long. Except for the woman who was sober because her child was beaten to death, everyone else was in a daze. When Chu Ci and Zhong Lixuan approached, those people Also no response.
Only the bitten woman raised her head, glanced at the two of them, bloody tears flowed down her face, her lips squirmed and said something, before the two could get close to hear what he said, the woman shook her head Crooked, out of breath.
This group of people was dragged all the way in the heavy snow, and those who were in poor health were already at the end of their strength, not to mention that the woman was kicked to the head by a man on horseback. Chu Ci and Zhong Lixuan turned the woman's eyes solemnly Closed, they cut off the ropes of the remaining survivors who were tied up, picked up the wolf carcasses that had been dead for a while, and piled them together to keep them warm.
Chu Ci scraped through the snowdrifts, gathered dry grass and sticks and lit a fire. A group of people gathered around the fire, and the faces of the captives who had been tortured to the point of being out of shape showed a little aura that a living person should have.
The first one to come alive was an older child, he knelt on the ground trembling, and said in Yuan Xu's official words, "Thank you benefactor for saving us, thank you benefactor!"
The other rescued people also knelt down on the ground, and kowtowed to Chu Ci and Zhong Lixuan in unison, and the other two were weeping while kowtow, but the strong wind blew past, and the faces of those people Tears also turned into ice grains.
Chu Ci said in a deep voice: "Can you survive on your knees? If you want to live, you take off the clothes of those dead people and put them on, and then peel off the wolf skins with me and wrap them up. If you can still move, let's roast wolf meat together." .”
As he spoke, he cut up the wolf carcass neatly, peeled the skin first and then cut the meat, skewered the cut meat on the knife and handed it to a half-grown child beside him.
The child was so hungry that his eyes were blue, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva looking at the bloody raw meat, and put the meat on the fire with shaking hands.
The other people also gradually came to their senses, and they all began to follow Chuci's instructions.
Chu Ci was processing the wolf carcasses here, while Zhong Lixuan untied the tools from the horse on the other side. When he saw earthen jars, porcelain bowls, and medicines, he set up the earthen jars and put them in snow, turned them into water and poured them into the bowls. For the few who have suffered.
Two hours later.
Although the dozens of survivors were still wounded, but fortunately their spirits slowly recovered. One of them was wrapped in a wolf skin, and some of them were wearing ill-fitting clothes, devouring the roasted wolf meat. After drinking the concoction made by Zhong Lixuan, he looked at Chu Ci and Zhong Lixuan with a pair of eyes.
"Who are you and why are you here?" Chu Ci asked.
An elderly man raised his head, as if he hadn't spoken a complete sentence for many years, Yuan Xu's words stumbled: "We are originally from Yuanxu, and these young people are our descendants. In the early years when Yuanxu and Donghu fought, After the defeat, we all became prisoners of war. The Donghu people asked us to herd sheep and horses. We wanted to escape to our hometown, so they tied us up and sold us to the Heluo tribe as living sacrifices, saying that the wolf god likes to eat Yuanxu people. Children are used to feed wolf gods."
The half-grown children nodded, their expressions dull.
The old man's expression was also numb and indifferent: "The woman who was beaten to death just now is my daughter. When she was alive...she was bullied by those beasts, and the child she gave birth was fed to the wolf god. This is the last child. He died too. It’s okay to die, for us human sacrifices, death is the only relief. I remember that there were thousands of us at the beginning, but now, there are only a few of us left.”
The cold wind was howling, and the surviving Yuan Xu people seemed to have no will to live at all, their faces eroded by the wind and snow were exhausted, Zhong Lixuan closed his eyes, tears were floating in his eyes.
"Chu Ci and I will take you back."
The young man opened his eyes and looked around at the people in front of him. He clenched his hands tightly, his nails deeply embedded in his palms, and his childish face was now only stern, "Hui Yuanxu."
He had never thought about what it means to be a prince. Whether it is real or fake, the name of prince is just a gimmick, a name that can make him and Chuci temporarily worry-free, but at this moment, Zhong Lixuan has something in his heart made a decision.
He used to think that no one could change all of this, but now, he has Chuci, the omnipotent Chuci, and he has nothing to fear.
If he could do something with his vain and ridiculous identity, he now has only one idea—to change Yuan Xu, to change the world, so that there will be no more people in the world who suffer from the death of their parents, wives and children.
"We can't go back, we can't go back." The old man who spoke earlier shook his head and smiled bitterly, his eyes became cloudier, "Home is too far away, and we can't find the way home."
"If we can go back, we not only have to go back, but also let the Heluo people and Donghu people pay with their blood." Chu Ci's voice was cold.
The rescued children looked up and looked at Chu Ci together.
Chu Ci looked around, and said in a cold voice: "Engrave blood hatred in your bones, don't forget, use this hatred to temper your flesh and blood, remember the pain you have suffered, whether it is ten years, eight years, or even a hundred years That's fine, don't forget this kind of shame, you will have a chance to avenge yourself."
There were tiny glimmers of light struggling in the eyes of the dull-looking people.
Chu Ci said again: "If you feel that hatred is too bitter, you can forget about it all and start over."
"No, I want revenge." One of them gritted his teeth when he heard the words, "I will never forget this bloody revenge in my life. I want revenge."
"Yes, we want revenge!"
"Forget this great enmity, you will be a son of man in vain, and you will come to this world in vain."
The numbness of the children who were raised as human animals faded away, and their faces were full of hatred.
Chu Ci looked at these teenagers and nodded: "Since you have made up your mind, we will try our best to bring you back to Yuan Xu and settle them down, and give you a chance to take revenge. Whether you can take revenge or not is up to you."
"Thank you benefactor!" This time, it was the decadent old man who had hope in his eyes. He bowed down and bowed down, but couldn't help crying.
