"Crackle, crackle," the blazing campfire made a dull crackle from time to time. After the caravan marched on the Yingfeng grassland for half a day, people were sleepy and tired, so they decided to rest temporarily.
Take a rest and eat something so that you can continue on your way. Gather the moose together. The caravan guard and the waiter will work in groups of three or five to raise a bonfire next to the moose.
In addition to the withered grass and leaves collected from the surrounding area, the fuel for the campfire is mainly dried moose dung cake. This dung cake has less smoke, is durable and can endure burning, and the light smoke has a faint smell of green grass. It is a necessary thing for the caravan to walk underground.
"Zi, Zi," Liu Yu sat alone by a campfire. On the campfire was a hare fighting. There were many rabbits in addition to cave rats.
In addition, intermittent wolf howls from the open grassland in the distance indicate that there are many wolves here.
"Hmm!" when Liu Yu was turning over the roast rabbit on the campfire, he suddenly felt his back stabbing. He suddenly turned around. The strange northerners sitting around the campfire not far behind him were looking at this side and whispering. When Liu Yu turned around, he hurried over.
Shortly after starting from the town, Liu Yu found someone secretly aiming at him. After paying attention, she found that it was the people next to the campfire behind her.
These people are all strangers. Judging from their behavior, they should be the adventurous servants hired by the grain merchant. Like him, they are temporary guards.
Liu Yu frowned. He was sure that he had never seen these people before. What was their intention?
Are you from the shark arena? Liu Yu''s heart is covered with a layer of haze. As the saying goes, if something goes wrong, there must be a demon. She is afraid that she will be watched by others. She needs to be careful next.
"How delicious!" just as Liu Yu was deep in thought, a northern man as strong as a bear and the escort captain of the caravan, "red bear", came over, looked at the scorched yellow rabbit meat that was making a noise in the fire, swallowed saliva, sat down and said.
"The heat is about the same, just a minute!" Liu Yu turned over the roast rabbit, sprinkled a handful of salt and spices, turned over and roasted it for a moment, tore off one of the rabbit''s hind legs, handed it over and let the other party taste it.
"You''re welcome, brother!" red bear took a big mouthful of his hind leg and just said "Xiang". Unexpectedly, the craftsmanship of Zhongzhou Taoist is good, which is no worse than that in the tavern.
"Good meat can''t be without good wine. Come on, Taoist priest, drink some!" after eating the meat, red bear smiled, took out a pot of good wine and handed it out. The Zhongzhou Taoist is a foundation building friar in the escort except him.
Red bear intends to make friends along the way. In fact, he just hopes that if the caravan really encounters something, this person can stretch out his hand and not pat his ass and run away.
Red bear knows the reward given by his boss. The Lord certainly doesn''t like it. He can take over the escort task.
It''s just on the way. For an old hand like him who wanders underground all year round, it can be seen at a glance that each caravan has its own formal escort, and red bear has been the escort captain of this caravan for many years.
In addition to their own guards, the underground caravans usually hire some adventure servants from the adventure trade union at a low price as temporary guards before departure.
The price is not high, but some people can always be recruited, because many adventurous servants on the way report that they can earn a spirit stone. Most of them are willing to become temporary guards.
Besides, if you travel with the caravan, at least you don''t have to worry about food and drink.
"Hoo!" while Liu Yu was chatting with the captain of the guard, two northerners with an iron cage were flying from far to near.
This sudden change attracted the personnel of the three caravans to get up one after another. They met the robbers, but it was wrong. Only two people came.
After they got close, they stopped and sat down in an open space outside the caravan. They were panting and obviously had a long way to go.
As soon as they sat down, they took the elixir of returning spirit and began to exercise their skills and regulate their Qi as if there were no one else. There was an iron cage covered with black cloth between them, which was mysterious.
"Ouch!" seeing that these two people were passers-by, they should see that there was a bonfire here, so they rushed to have a rest, and the caravan paid no attention.
But with a stick of incense, they felt something wrong. The wolf howling from a distance became more and more urgent and louder. It was obvious that the wolves were approaching quickly.
This change happened soon after the two strangers came. When the caravan was about to question the two people, the two people got up without saying a word, raised the iron cage, ran forward, and disappeared in the dark grassland after a few breaths.
"It''s not suitable to stay here for a long time, let''s go!" something was wrong. The red bear shouted solemnly. The three caravans began to clean up, put out the bonfire, tie up their gear, pull up the Fed moose and prepare to start on the road.
"Who is it?" not long after the caravan was on its way, two more galloping figures appeared. Looking closely, they were the two people carrying black cloth cages.
"Ow!" people knew what had happened without these two people answering, because two strong wolves rushed out behind them.
Black and white, the stronger one is covered with black mane, bares his teeth and looks ferocious, while the slightly Petite one is covered with snow wolf hair, slender and flexible.
Judging from the spirit power from the two giant Spirit Wolves, they have reached the foundation period. The red bear secretly screams bad. I''m afraid he has met two "wasteland wolf kings"?
The conjecture in his mind was soon clear, because from the darkness around the caravan, pairs of green and faint wolf pupils were constantly emerging, and the suppressed low roar made all the hearts of the caravan cold. These pairs of green eyes, like ghost lights, were dense and numerous.
"Gather all the moose together, come on!" the experienced red bear shouted immediately without much thought.
The three caravans moved quickly. They were all old pack teams that had been walking underground for many years. Soon, the moose arrived for nearly a hundred years, covered the moose''s eyes with sackcloth, and took out the "silent note" and pasted it on the moose''s forehead, making these moose temporarily deaf.
In this way, the moose will not panic and run around when they hear the wolf howl. It is a small matter to lose the goods. If these moose run away or are killed by these cave wolves, they will lose a lot.
These moose get together, but also free up more people to defend against the next wolf attack.
"I''ll kill you if I get closer!" the two northerners carrying the iron cage also wanted to enter the defense circle, but before they got closer, a few swords stopped the two people. It was the group who had just secretly watched Liu Yu.
"In the cage are two wolf king cubs stolen from the wolf cave by our brothers who risked their lives not long ago. They are all mutated level five" moon wolves ". But good things. If you let us in, we will keep our brothers safe. When the wolf cubs come out, Lingshi will share with you." seeing the dilemma, one of them suddenly lifted the black cloth covered with the iron cage and pointed to the two sleeping white haired wolf cubs in the cage.
It turned out that a team of adventurous servants, including these two people, accidentally found a wolf cave nest and found that the two wolf cubs born to the wolf king were five level "moon wolves" with higher blood lineage. Such two wolf cubs, for animal repair, are rare companion spiritual animals, and will sell at a good price.
The so-called people die for money and birds die for food. These people don''t want to die. They dare to hide not far from the wolf cave and secretly stare at every move of the wolf cave. Their Kung Fu is worthy of those who have a heart. These people really wait for the opportunity.
Just today, the two wolf kings went out together. The group was overjoyed. After the two wolf kings left, they stormed the wolf cave. Although they paid a heavy price, they successfully captured two wolf cubs.
But the good luck of the group came to an end. When they ran away, they happened to meet two wolf kings who rushed back in a rage. The group was chased by wolves all the way, and now there are only two people left in a team.
"Boss, why don''t..." it''s obvious that someone is excited. If the two fifth order "moon wolf" cubs are successfully brought back to beluga harbor, the price of each cub may not be less than one million.
I don''t know how these two cubs fell into the hands of these two people. Not only the group who secretly watched Liu Yu was moved, but also other people in the caravan were moved.
"Ow!" just as everyone hesitated, the black maned wolf king, who was afraid of many friars in the caravan and stopped, roared. He couldn''t wait and ordered the wolves to attack. It was obvious that in the eyes of the wolf king, the caravan was with two thieves.
At the command of the wolf king, the "cave wolves" around rushed to the caravan surrounded by a circular array like an arrow. It was dark and like a wave. I''m afraid there were hundreds of them. Liu Yu couldn''t help sweating. It was really a disaster from heaven and luck came home.
"Prepare for the battle and hold the front!" facing the "cave wolf" rushing in all directions, several guard captains shouted angrily to cheer up their guards and adventure servants.
There are so many "cave wolves" who can only stick to the round array. If the round array is broken and the caravan is scattered by wolves, everything will be over.
