Although it could be heard from the approaching wolf howls that the wolves were coming non-stop, Chen Ziyan did not panic at all. After confirming that Hu Bayi and Hua Hu only suffered some superficial injuries and nothing serious, he dragged his feet Looking like a dead dog, the Wolf King began to return along the way he came.
"Master Chen, why don't you just kill this beast?" After briefly bandaging it, Hu Bayi walked up to Chen Ziyan and asked in confusion.
He looked at the white-haired wolf king with undisguised murderous intent. If time had not allowed, he really wanted to cut this guy into pieces with his own hands, in order to pay tribute to his comrades who died in a foreign country.
"This guy is not simple. The body is also a treasure and needs to be taken care of properly." Chen Ziyan said softly, "Don't worry, I'll let you do it later."
He knew what Hu Bayi was thinking, so he directly made this promise.
In fact, what Hu Bayi didn't know was that Chen Ziyan chose to take the dying wolf king away instead of solving it on the spot. In addition to the reason that the wolves were about to arrive, there was another very important reason, that is, he had no choice. Dismember this guy.
Although the old wolf has only one breath left now, and a few sticks can send it to death completely, but killing it is one thing, and taking away useful materials is another thing.
Although Chen Ziyan's portable weapon is extraordinary, it is a typical blunt weapon. It is naturally useless in combat, but it is weak in cutting.
The white-haired wolf king most likely has generated inner elixirs in his body. It would be a pity to give up for this reason. In addition, other parts of the old wolf's body are not ordinary, so Chen Ziyan simply packed it away. Take it away and wait until you are in a safe area to cook slowly.
As for why he left a breath for it, it was also because of this reason. After all, he had never encountered a spirit of this level before. He was afraid that taking the elixir after death would affect the quality. Anyway, after taking away the wolf corpse, there was basically no breath left. The difference is that Chen Ziyan was not in a hurry to kill him.
Hu Bayi looked happy when he heard this, but soon discovered a problem: "Master Chen, if we take it with us, the wolves may chase it."
If it were an ordinary wolf, the Wolf King would be gone after he died, but that was not the case for this demon wolf. He felt that the remaining demon wolves would probably take revenge after the Wolf King died. After all, the Wolf King was too powerful, and now the Wolf King He's not dead yet, maybe the wolves will try to rescue this guy.
After the wind and snow completely subsided, the blood stains on him and Hua Hu, as well as the scent left by the wolf king along the way, would be a guiding light for the wolves.
And... with Chen Ziyan's current slow speed, he felt that the wolves could find them without even chasing them.
"Lao Hu, where do you think is the best way to go now?" Chen Ziyan did not answer Hu Bayi, but asked this question.
"Huh?" Hu Bayi was stunned when he was asked, and subconsciously looked around, but the glacier looked the same on all sides, so there was no difference.
However, based on the blood-stained 'battlefield' behind him, he could still infer the direction in which Chen Ziyan was heading, and asked strangely: "Mr. Chen, are you planning to return along the original road?"
Hu Bayi didn't understand why Chen Ziyan wanted to go back. The process of climbing on the ice wall just now was still fresh in his memory. Although the danger was indeed not much, the indescribable feeling of suspension really stimulated his emotions all the time. Senses, he didn't actually want to go through it again if possible.
And he felt that now that the battle between the wolves and the outsiders was over, they could take advantage of the opportunity when the wolves came here to bypass the other party and return directly from the ice.
Hu Ba's understanding of black glasses was not as good as that of Chen Ziyan, but he was not completely ignorant. He knew that the ruffian guy was a master, and with the help of Wang Kaixuan and the others, he felt that he had great confidence in completing the decision. goal, so this road can be said to be smooth.
"Yes." Chen Ziyan nodded lightly.
The corner of his eye swept over Hu Bayi's frown, and he took the initiative to explain: "It's fine if the wolves don't chase us, but as long as they chase us, it will be trouble. As long as we are still on the ice, it will be difficult to get rid of those guys. In this kind of situation Circumstances call for a special path, like the one we came on.”
"That's true..." Hu Bayi roughly understood Chen Ziyan's thoughts. This was indeed a problem. If he led the Wolf King into the ice crevice, the wolves would definitely not be able to follow him.
"But Mr. Chen... can you still find the way we came here?" But then a new question arose in his mind.
Under such a dark night, everything looks the same in all directions. He has lost his sense of direction now. There is no other way until the stars reappear. He really doesn't expect Chen Ziyan to remember the way back.
Hearing this, Chen Ziyan pointed to Huahu, who had arrived in front of him at some point: "It doesn't matter if I can't find him, as long as Huahu can find him."
Then, without waiting for Hu Bayi's response, Chen Ziyan, who saw Huahu mentioning his speed, left a word and quickly followed: "Okay, Lao Hu, follow up."
Only then did Hu Bayi realize that Chen Ziyan had been walking slowly before because he was waiting for Huahu to confirm his route back.
But he didn't have time to think too much, because Huahu quickly changed from walking to running after picking up the speed. This left Hu Bayi no time to be distracted and think too much, so he quickly accelerated to follow.
Since they came here mainly to look for traces of the Wolf King, they went back very quickly. It didn't take long before Hua Hu led them back to the entrance of the ice crevice they came up from.
"It seems we don't have time to rest here." Chen Ziyan listened to the constant howling of wolves behind him, looked at Hu Bayi and asked: "Old Hu, how are you? Can you still hold on?"
The wolves were obviously chasing them. Although they had to chase and search at the same time, they never picked up the speed. But if they stayed here for too long, it would only be a matter of time before they caught up.
"Huh..." Hu Bayi took a deep breath, endured the pain from the wound on his body, and gritted his teeth: "I'm fine."
He also knew the current situation, and Hu Bayi himself did not dare to let go of his energy. He was in pain and tired now, but it would not be enough to be exhausted, but the impact would definitely be there, so he didn't want to Let's lose this state.
But he was also feeling emotional in his heart. Let’s not talk about this guy Chen Ziyan. He was not injured after all, but Huahu’s injury seemed to be much more serious than his, but now he seems to be fine. He is simply a pervert, okay?
"That's good." Chen Ziyan said nothing more.
We have already come this far, and there is no use in talking any more. As long as we don’t want to give up the body of the Wolf King, we must bite the bullet and continue.
However, in order to prevent Hu Bayi from having an accident, Chen Ziyan took out a climbing rope and tied both ends around their waists as a safety measure.
Hu Bayi did not refuse this. He knew that Chen Ziyan was thinking about his own safety, and most importantly, he knew that even if something happened to him, it would not involve Chen Ziyan, who was the ceiling of his combat power. So naturally I happily accept this good thing.
Their condition had declined, and they had to take the Wolf King with them, so it took Chen Ziyan and the others much longer to go back than when they came.
That is to say, with a person like him who exceeds the standard, otherwise it is almost impossible to think about bringing the huge wolf king back.
Fortunately, there were no accidents on the way back, and they successfully returned to where they started.
When Chen Ziyan took the Wolf King up, there was no one in the fortifications. It was obvious that everyone had gone out.
Without rushing to find others, Chen Ziyan first pulled up Hu Bayi who was following him. It was fine when he was running on the ice in the front, but Hu Bayi was very tired when climbing the ice wall later. It's light. If it weren't for the energy I've been holding in my heart, it would be really hard to get back here smoothly.
"Huha-huha-"
As soon as Hu Bayi came up, he couldn't hold on any longer and collapsed beside him, breathing heavily.
"Master Chen! Lao Hu!"
Chen Ziyan was just about to pull up the Huahu who was left behind when he heard an exclamation coming from the entrance.
Then Wang Kaixuan, a nimble fat man, rushed in. Seeing that Chen Ziyan was okay, this guy went straight to Hu Bayi who was lying there. When he saw the blood on Hu Bayi's body, his face was full of anxiety. :
"Lao Hu, Lao Hu, are you okay? Don't scare me!"
"Huh... Fatty, can you calm down for a while?" Hu Bayi opened his tired eyes and said helplessly.
Although he knew that the fat man was worried about him, he was too tired now. If it weren't for the fact that he was worried about him, he wouldn't even want to say anything.
"As long as it's okay, it's okay." When Wang Kaixuan saw this, he also knew that Hu Bayi was okay, so he quickly said, "Get some rest and leave everything else to me."
Before he finished speaking, he took the medical bag he had been carrying on his back and wanted to bandage Hu Bayi's wounds.
It can be seen from this that even though the two of them are harming each other, their relationship is extremely deep. Chen Ziyan cannot even imagine what shocking things the other will do if one of them really has an accident.
However, no matter how emotional he was, he still stopped Wang Kaixuan with words: "Fat man, Lao Hu is exhausted. His injuries are not serious. You should take him to a warmer place first and then deal with it."
If you want to treat the wound carefully, you must remove the outer clothes. If you are operating in such a cold place, Hu Bayi should be fine even if he has nothing to do.
"Look at my head, I will take Lao Hu to the camp right now." Wang Kaixuan knew that he was a little too concerned after hearing this, and quickly lifted Hu Bayi up from the ground and walked outside, even the conspicuous Wolf King Didn't even take a look.
Chen Ziyan didn't pay attention to this guy. After he pulled Huahu up, he dragged the Wolf King out of the fortification.
When he went out, he saw other people waiting outside the door. It seemed that they were right behind Wang Kaixuan, but they heard that there was no big problem inside, so they didn't all run into the fortifications.
Chen Ziyan nodded slightly to everyone, saying that he was fine, and then turned his attention to the strangers standing behind everyone.
These people all had unfamiliar faces, but Chen Ziyan recognized the clothes they were wearing. They were the same group of people who had fought with the wolves earlier.
After seeing this scene, Chen Ziyan probably had an idea. If nothing unexpected happened, this group of people was really not their enemies, or they just didn't know if they were from the Crescent Hotel.
But he thought it was probably from the Crescent Hotel.
"Mr. Chen, is this your goal this time?" Black Glasses' eyes were quickly attracted to the Wolf King. After seeing this guy's full appearance, he couldn't help but ask.
He often walks in the mountains and forests, and has dealt with creatures like wolves a lot. It's not like he has never seen a wolf beast before, but this is the first time he has seen such a huge one, not to mention that this guy can control the wind and snow. The ability to give blessings to your subordinates.
"That's right." Chen Ziyan grabbed the climbing rope with one hand and swung it, and the Wolf King tied to the other end was thrown in front of everyone.
"Tsk, no one will believe this thing if it's not a spirit." Black Glasses looked at the white-haired wolf king in front of him and marveled.
He has dealt with spirits and naturally knows the value of such creatures. After knowing this, it is not difficult to guess why Chen Ziyan brought this thing back.
However, Black Glasses did not feel that Chen Ziyan did anything wrong at all. If it were him, he would do the same thing. This is not a cat or a dog that can be seen everywhere on the roadside, but a wolf monster that has lived for who knows how many years, and it is still Alien species among wolves are absolutely priceless treasures that are hard to find.
After Shirley Yang looked at the Wolf King, she turned her attention back to Chen Ziyan and breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that he was not injured.
No one asked Chen Ziyan why they came back from the ice crevice. After seeing the wolf king, they had already figured out the whole story.
Before Chen Ziyan took the initiative to ask, Shirley Yang took the initiative to explain the current situation to him.
Just as Chen Ziyan guessed, those outsiders were indeed friends rather than enemies, and they were from the Crescent Hotel.
No, more accurately, these people should come from their temporary camp outside the mountain.
It was An Zi who was specially arranged by Sheng Shengman to be nearby. No one except her knew the existence of these people.
After listening to Shirley Yang's words, Chen Ziyan was thoughtful. He looked at those people and asked, "Who is in charge here?"
He did not doubt the identities of these people. Since Shirley Yang said that they were from the Crescent Hotel and did not restrict their freedom, it meant that their identities had been recognized by everyone.
After hearing Chen Ziyan's question, one of them stepped forward and said respectfully: "Mr. Chen."
Chen Ziyan saw that he didn't name himself and didn't bother to ask. People like this were all hidden people and there was no need to ask them.
He looked at the man in front of him and asked, "What happened over there at the camp?"
Although it was a question, everyone could hear that Chen Ziyan's tone was very certain.
Chen Ziyan made this judgment directly after hearing Shirley Yang say that these people were secret agents at the Crescent Hotel.
Being able to make Sheng Sheng slowly dispatch these people to find him means that there must be an unexpected problem in the camp, but this problem is not serious enough.
