The mountains and forests are long, and the ranger searches all the way, heading north.
They didn't carry much food with them on this trip, and they couldn't find any food to replenish their strength in the winter woods, so they needed to rush to the next town for supplies within a limited time.
Of course, because they were government soldiers, their supplies along the way were provided by the local government.
Moreover, they are all heroes who have won heads now. In addition to supplies, the government and local wealthy families often give them thank-you gifts. This is one of the reasons why they do not miss their previous status as rangers at all.
After passing this dense forest, there was a way down the mountain. During this period, I did not encounter any enemies. Instead, I saw a slightly flatter and gentle slope. What is even more rare is that there is a small clear spring here.
"Fifth brother, there is spring water here!" Xiao Dao's eyes were the most useful. He was the first to see the small spring water. He immediately cheered and rushed forward.
The rapid footsteps startled a squirrel lying here drinking water. It was so frightened that it jumped and fled to a big tree not far away, only sticking out its small head to look at this group of uninvited guests.
"Don't drink it yet..." Before Wang Wu could say "Be careful of the poison", the knife had already arrived at the spring water.
He quickly squatted down, picked up a handful of water, and greedily swallowed it into his mouth. Then he raised his head and shouted in surprise: "Come here quickly, the spring water is still warm!"
"Bah! If I pour anything into my mouth, I'll poison you sooner or later!" Wang Wu had no choice but to curse in his heart.
However, he just cursed in his heart.
Looking at the squirrel by the spring and the chaotic paw prints of wild beasts on the ground, anyone with eyes can tell that there is nothing wrong with the water.
"Fifth brother..." Someone beside him licked his lips, but instead of rushing forward like before, he looked at Wang Wu expectantly and asked for his opinion.
This is why Wang Wu has become more authoritative in the past few days. Except for Xiao Dao who continues to be heartless, the rest of the team has become accustomed to obeying his arrangements.
At this moment, Wang Wu quickly calculated the remaining distance in his mind, and found that there was still enough time, so he simply nodded: "Brothers, we are tired after walking such a long way. Let's take a rest here and eat some food before we continue on our way!"
"Oh~"
As soon as these words came out, the other rangers who had been eager to try immediately cheered and rushed to the spring to get water. In this way, they squeezed out the original knife. He was so angry that he stood outside the crowd, jumping on his feet and yelling at this The crowd is shameless.
The winter sun is very attractive! The sun shines warmly on your body, making you feel so comfortable that you just want to do nothing and just have a nice sleep in the sun.
After Xiaodao hurriedly took a few mouthfuls of food, he wrapped himself in a fur coat that he had taken off the enemy. He leaned against a big stone for a while and dozed off.
I don’t know what material this fur is made of. It’s gray and fluffy, with a few ugly scars and hairless patches in the middle. At first glance, it looks like mouse skin, and it’s extremely shabby!
Because of this, when they were packing up the trophies, none of the other rangers looked down on this tattered coat. Only Xiaodao thought about using it to wrap his feet at night, so he started to peel it off the dead ghost.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I bought this thing, I immediately felt the difference in it!
This seemingly huge piece of fur is actually very light. When you touch it, it feels as pliable as nothing! Only then did Xiao Dao realize that he had found a treasure. From then on, he never left his fur and wore it even to bed at night, for fear of taking it off and being snatched away by others.
The wind was not strong today, and with the sun shining above his head, the knife, which was leaning on the big stone, quickly entered a state of half-asleep and half-awake.
In the past few days, whether he was rushing or killing people, his spirit had long been exhausted, so when he was idle, his eyelids began to fight involuntarily.
"trickle……"
Just as he was about to dream of Duke Zhou's daughter, something suddenly fell from above his head and hit Xiaodao lightly on the head.
"Don't make trouble! Let me take a rest!" Xiaodao grunted dissatisfied with his dream being disturbed, tilted his head and continued to take a nap.
"Crash..."
Another burst of fine sand and gravel fell. This time, it did not fall on the top of Xiaodao's head. Instead, it flowed down his neck and directly into his clothes.
"Damn it! Who! Over and over again, looking for death, right?"
I was harassed again, this time my uncle could bear it, but my aunt couldn't bear it anymore!
Xiaodao suddenly opened his bloodshot eyes. He was about to fight the bastard who was teasing him, but suddenly he found that there didn't seem to be anyone around him?
"Is it behind the stone?"
The furious Xiao Dao got up from the ground, and regardless of the surprised looks in other people's eyes, he jumped up to the boulder and looked around, but there was still no one there!
"Strange? Is this a dream?" Standing on the stone blankly, Xiaodao scratched his head and shook his clothes subconsciously. A few bits of sand and gravel fell from the clothes, proving that he was not dreaming!
"Fifth Brother, did you see..." He raised his head blankly. Xiaodao was about to ask Wang Wu if someone was playing a trick on him. Suddenly, there was another slight vibration under his feet, and the fine weathered sand on the big rocks also rustled. Roll down.
"Scared, this stone has become a spirit? Can it move?" Xiaodao was startled by the sudden vibration. He was about to jump off the stone when he suddenly saw a ranger over there pointing at the bottom of the mountain and shouting in horror. Said: "Look! What is that?"
"What can be so scary?" Upon hearing this, Xiao Dao quickly stopped jumping down and turned his head to look in the direction the man was pointing.
At the bottom of the mountain, a group of cavalry suddenly appeared on the road. The men and horses were all covered in black armor, just like a torrent of steel, sweeping in from a distance!
The violent horseshoes struck the ground like an earthquake, causing the mountains beneath them to tremble!
"Look, what are they chasing!"
Someone beside him yelled again. Xiao Dao trembled and broke out of the shock. He quickly rubbed his eyes and looked in front of the cavalry.
really!
Where the cavalry was, a group of deserters who had abandoned their armor were rushing towards them like crazy.
These deserters were also riding horses, but their horses looked like ridiculous donkeys compared to the horses of the cavalry behind them! Although he was running hard, the distance between the two was getting closer and closer!
"There is no road ahead! Brothers, go back and fight with them!"
The two parties were escaping and chasing each other, and were about to enter a rugged mountain road. The deserter in front suddenly shouted and reined in his horse.
Obviously he also knew that the horse would not be able to run on that kind of road! They would be easily shot one by one on the road by the cavalry behind them.
However, if you escape, you will die, but if you resist, will you survive?
