293 Working together
Qing Yi and Xiao Long'er depended on each other, and she knew Xiao Long'er naturally. She also knew that Xiao Long'er was just as obsessed with his father as he was. Under normal circumstances, he couldn't suffer a loss, but Xiao Long'er never left her side, but leaving Xue There are wolves in and out of the patrol area of the wolf clan from time to time. No matter how ferocious the Marquis is, he can deal with three or two wolves, but if there are more, how can he take care of Xiao Long'er? Besides, there is a mole in them, and his whereabouts are gone. Lu', it's impossible for Snake Marquis' people not to be lurking nearby. With all kinds of dangers looming before her eyes, how can she not be anxious?
Xiao Hua was equally impatient, but he was the one who had the overall situation in mind after all. He held Qing Yi's small hand that was soaked with cold sweat in one hand and looked around. No matter what, the mastiff couldn't outrun him and Qing Yi's good horse. According to what Tsing Yi wanted, Judging from the speed of Lord Marquis, he wouldn't have gone very far.
There was a wind blowing, and the grass tips in front were messy. Xiao Hua let go of Qing Yi's hand, rode over, and saw a piece of lawn that had been stepped on repeatedly.
Qing Yi jumped off the horse and crouched down to identify carefully, "It's the footprints of the Marquis, but No Nuo's are missing."
The grass in this grassland is dense and thick. If it is not repeatedly stepped on and blown by the wind, there will be no traces.
Xiao Hua nodded lightly, "As you said, it carries Nuonuo." He was thoughtful. He had met the Marquis and knew his size and weight. He had also seen the Marquis running before, and the footprints here were bigger than the Marquis's. The previous one was slightly deeper, which showed that the weight he was carrying was heavier than when he saw it. From this, he could conclude that Xiao Longer was riding on it.
Qing Yi looked up happily, "They are indeed taking this road, they must be in front." He got up and mounted his horse, wanting to chase forward.
"Wait." Xiao Hua was not happy because of this discovery, but his heart became heavy. "On the way here, due to the thick grass, there were no footprints. It can be seen that Nono and the others kept moving forward without making any stops, but now He suddenly stopped."
Qing Yi's heart suddenly cast a shadow, but she didn't want to think about the worst, "Maybe I'm hungry, so I stopped eating."
Xiao Hua shook his head, "There are only footprints here, no large indentations, and the dog has never laid down."
What Xiao Longer brought was dried wolf meat. The meat was hard and difficult to chew. Even if it was a mastiff, it would take some effort to eat the meat. It would naturally lie down and eat with the help of its claws.
The weight of Lord Marquis will naturally leave indentations if he lies prone for a long time, but there are only footprints here and no indentations, indicating that he did not eat here.
Xiao Long'er knew the direction and kept moving forward. If he stayed here, there was only one possibility: something happened.
Xiao Hua led the horse in a circle around the footprints, pointed forward with his whip, and led the horse forward, "Heading in this direction."
Qing Yi hurriedly followed him. Not far away, she saw Xiao Hua suddenly pull up the horse. She followed his gaze and her face suddenly changed, "They encountered a wolf."
"There are only four wolves." Xiao Hua suppressed the panic in his heart and looked forward. He saw a bloody patch of blood in front of him in the distance. His heart suddenly tightened and he pinched the horse's belly and rushed forward.
"Nono." Qing Yi felt like the world was spinning and she stumbled off her horse. However, there were four torn wolf corpses lying on the ground, their flesh and blood were blurred. She didn't care to look at them and looked around again.
Xiao Hua knelt down, looked at the wolf's claws, then pried open the wolf's mouth to check the wolf's teeth. He closed his eyes and took a long breath. The heart hanging on Noisy's eyes finally fell, "This Hou... cough... Hou It's really amazing that I can defeat four hungry wolves and at the same time keep Nuonuo safe."
Qing Yi didn't see Xiao Long'er nearby, and felt a little relieved, "How do you know that Nono is not injured?"
Xiao Hua pointed to the messy, slightly smaller animal footprints on the ground with the whip in his hand, "This is the wolf's." Then he pointed to the footprints of the Marquis, "This is the Marquis's." Then he pointed to the small and faint footprints. , "This belongs to Nono. Nono was always protected by the Marquis. The wolf could not turn behind the Marquis from the beginning to the end. The Marquis used his body to stop Nono. At the same time, he counterattacked and killed the four wolves. Kill the wolf. , and had a hearty meal. This dog is really good."
When he said this, he suddenly smiled and said, "Our son even took away two wolf legs from a sheep."
Only then did Qing Yi notice that two of the wolves were missing a 'leg'. The 'meat' was cut with a sharp weapon, and the joints were bitten off by the Marquis with his teeth. "Nono has killed the wolf, so he should go to Yan." On the way to Beijing." He looked at the sky and said worriedly: "It's getting dark, Noonuo won't light up the fire..." Mr. Hou carried Xiao Long'er on his back, and he would be tired after a long time. They couldn't keep rushing, they would definitely Find a place to spend the night.
Looking ahead, he saw a vague forest shadow in the distance, and his heart skipped a beat. "He will definitely spend the night by that forest." He turned back to meet Xiao Hua's questioning eyes and consciously explained: "I used to go into the mountains to hunt. , I would take Nuonuo with me from time to time, and sometimes when I went far, I would spend the night outside. I thought there were too many crawlers on the ground, so I liked to spend the night in a tree. Although Nuonuo can't make a fire, he can climb trees. The Marquis is guarding him down below, even if it’s dark, ordinary wild beasts can’t do anything to him.”
Xiao Hua glanced at Qing Yi lightly. He really didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing to have such a restless mother in Nuonuo's stall.
If Qing Yi hadn't been too busy and took his son to hunt in the mountains, he wouldn't have been able to develop his son to have such a bold personality, and he wouldn't have been able to play the game of running away at such a young age.
But it is precisely because of this mother's certain hobbies that she can influence the next generation. For example, she loves climbing trees, and she also raised her son to love climbing trees.
Thanks to her mother, he can stay in the tree at night to avoid being picked up by wolves in the dark.
Qing Yi glared at the man beside her who she loved so much but was so depressed at the same time, "It's all your fault for why you came here to find our mother and son. If it weren't for you, Nono wouldn't have run away from home."
It was only natural to find his wife and children, but Xiao Longer's running away from home was indeed related to him. Xiao Hua felt that he was in the wrong and did not dare to reply. He coughed lightly and said, "We'd better go to the woods and have a look. If we can find him, That’s it, if he’s not there, you’ll have to make other plans.”
Qing Yi thought that Xiao Long'er would have a safe place to stay at night and was not as panicked as before. He glared at Xiao Hua again before leading the horse forward.
While the couple was hurrying towards the forest, Xiao Longer was picking up a bunch of dry branches and piling them into a pile at the edge of the forest. He used to do this job when he and his mother went hunting in the mountains.
However, the firewood was piled up, but he did not have the small stones that his mother could touch to light a fire. He regretted not taking two of them with him when he left.
While he was worrying, Xiao Jiao'er poked his head out. Dabao didn't agree with leaving home privately. He had just encountered a wolf. Although there was no danger, he was still frightened. It was getting dark again. If he didn't light a fire to drive away the wolf, The wild beast might become wolf food at night. He became more and more angry and said angrily: "Idiot, don't you know how to make fire by drilling wood?"
Xiao Long'er had never heard of drilling wood to make fire, but the fool refused to do so. He raised his eyebrows, puffed out his cheeks, and said unconvinced: "My mother never taught me."
Xiao Jiao'er used to follow Qing Yi all the time. Qing Yi went out to perform tasks and often traveled through the mountains for several days. There were also times when the Huozhezi got wet and couldn't be used.
When encountering such a situation, Qing Yi will drill wood to get water, so although Xiao Jiao'er has not done it himself, he knows the method.
Erbao glanced at Dabao and said, "I'll teach you."
"Flattery." Dabao turned his head away unhappily.
Erbao bit Dabao hard and said, "If you don't want to come with us, get out of here."
Dabao was so angry that he wanted to cry. If he didn't share the same body with Erbao, why would he be kidnapped here? "Why don't you just get out of here and insist on dragging me along?"
Erbao said to Xiao Long'er: "Don't forget, divide us up. I really can't bear to hear it tremble."
Xiao Long'er happily took out the dagger and compared it with the place where Dabao and Erbao were connected. He left his body to Erbao and said, "How about dividing it here?"
Erbao nodded immediately, while Dabao turned pale and shook his head quickly, shrinking his neck, not daring to talk nonsense.
Xiao Longer refused to give up, "I'm going to take action."
Dabao couldn't hold back his anger, "You go pick up a piece of dry poplar wood and a harder branch, and I'll teach you how to drill the wood to make fire."
Xiaolonger's little plan blinked in success and jumped away beautifully to find Bai Mumu.
Dabao snorted angrily, "Like father, like son. They are all full of bad things."
Er Baoxiang opened his eyes wide as if he had discovered something strange, "You said the master is a bad guy."
Dabao immediately lost his voice.
There are many poplar trees in this forest, and it is not difficult to find a piece of dead poplar wood.
Xiao Long'er followed Xiao Jiao'er's instructions. He first used a dagger to cut a child-shaped hole in the poplar wood, put dead leaves in it, then sharpened the branches, poked the hole into the poplar wood, and kept drilling hard. .
But he is small, no matter how hard he tries, he just can't get out any sparks.
After seeing this, Xiao Jiao'er was discouraged, the sky darkened, and the howling of wolves could be heard in the distance.
Dabao said: "Actually, you don't have to work so hard to make fire. Don't forget to climb into the tree. The wolf can't eat him. At worst, he will eat this stupid dog."
The Marquis, who was taking the wolf's legs as a snack, heard that he was called a stupid dog. He bared his teeth and showed a fierce look. Erbao hurriedly took a bite of Dabao and said, "You are impatient with life, don't drag me into this." "
You know, when the Marquis becomes angry, it will have to accompany Dabao to escape for his life.
When Xiao Longer heard the word "Master Hou", his eyes lit up.
Thank you girls for the reward, but there are so few pink tickets. Girls, do you still have tickets?
