Wolf Xianggong

As the new year approaches, the weather is a bit cold, and the white air exhaled from the mouth turns into frost in a short while, forming frost on the eyebrows and eyes.

But the sun was very good, and I lay on my back on the cart when I was in the water, feeling very satisfied being soothed by the warm sunlight.There is the "creaking" sound of the wooden wheels of the bullock cart in my ears, the clean and icy snow in my nose, and in my arms is the little white wolf who got out of the basket to bask in the sun.

One man and one wolf, squinting under the sunlight, yawning slowly.

Cheng An originally looked at the two of them as funny, but he couldn't help yawning as he looked at them.But he still wanted the face of a scholar, so don't tell the drivers to watch him not being upright, so he didn't join in the fun, just straightened his back and sat on the side of the car in a proper manner.

When I was in the water, I squinted and looked at the gradually receding bushes on both sides of the road. They were covered with hoarfrost in different shapes, and reflected the sunlight, making them crystal clear.At this moment, he is satisfied and grateful in his heart. He has tasted the silence of death, and now he can see the light of the sky in peace, which is a miracle of good fortune.

When I was in the water, I was finally able to take a closer look at the surrounding scenery. The last time I rode a horse king into the city to ask for a doctor, it was so fast and urgent that I had no time to attend to him.

This is a small country road, hidden and quiet. The bullock carts have been driving for a long time, until at the end of the road, it is on the official road of the town, and the woods on all sides are exhausted, revealing a snow-capped wilderness.After walking on this main road for a long time, I vaguely saw the city gate.

It was the first time for Shui Shi to enter the city, and the last time he just took a look at it from a long distance.So slightly excited, he quickly picked up the little wolf cub who was still drowsily dozing off, stuffed him into the basket, picked up the basket, and quickly jumped off the bullock cart.

The soldiers guarding the city today were a little more numerous for some reason, and they looked more fierce than before. They carefully checked the group of people, and in the end it was Cheng An who took out the name of the book school, and then let them go.

Shui Shi carefully followed Cheng An, who was not tall, and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter, it's so strict to enter the city, are you okay!"

Cheng An was also a little puzzled, "It didn't happen before, no one stopped me when I went in and out." But he took a look at the city's still bustling market at the end of the year, and he was relieved, "Looking at the city, nothing has changed."

But he thought about it, and turned his head and said to Shui, "Buy things here first, don't get lost, and wait for me at a bakery in Dajitou later." Chengan frowned, "I'll go Take a look at the teacher, maybe the old man knows well, if there is something wrong, I will send you back as soon as possible."

Shui Shi nodded obediently, although he felt a little uneasy being interrogated by the guards at the city gate, his eyes were still bright at the moment!He grew up so big, he had never been to a big market, and he had never walked back and forth among such a crowded and noisy crowd.

He used to sit quietly in a wheelchair, waiting for his mother to push out of the building for a stroll when there were few people around, and then go back after taking a breath of air. Because of years of medication maintenance, his resistance is also weak, and he has to catch colds from time to time.

He carried the basket on his back, with a bright smile on his back, listening to the yelling and bargaining on both sides of the road, and seeing many chirping children with their horns pierced, he bared his teeth and laughed. Dive into the bustling crowd of people...

And this Chengan hurried to the Qiaoyong alley where the teacher lived, stood at the door, straightened his clothes, and knocked on the door knocker respectfully. Coincidentally, it was Sun Luqian who opened the door.

"Hey, Senior Brother! It just so happens that you are here, I just entered the city, what's going on at the gate of the city!"

Sun Luqian motioned his younger brother to keep his voice down, and welcomed him into the room. Their teacher was sitting in the hall of the middle room, reading with a book of official history. Seeing his beloved little disciple coming, he put down the book and called Cheng with a smile. sit next to him.

"Teacher, how is your health recently?" Cheng An bowed respectfully.

The husband nodded and told him to go over to eat the refreshments on the table, "Thanks to your elder brother's improved prescription and the good medicine you took the trouble to grab, I'm fine now, and I ate an extra bowl of rice yesterday."

Sun Luqian looked at the teacher who was in good spirits, and felt a little relieved, "It's because the teacher is in good health that the medicine can cure the disease."

The master gave each of them a piece of snack, and then looked at some of the young disciples who were busy in the world, and asked, "Cheng'an, what's the matter."

Sun Luqian was biting with a snack, and then said, "I'm afraid it wasn't because he was interrogated at the gate of the city."

"Yes, teacher, I brought our brother Shui up to buy some food. I just haven't come back for a few days, and the gate of the city is so tight! If something happens, I can take my brother back as soon as possible."

The gentleman slowly let go of the smile on his face when he heard the words. He was originally a Beijing official who was demoted, and he had great insight in his heart. Ask the students to secretly collect money from him.

Now because I don't have a small family, so I live in this small town, thinking about this life, the most important thing in my later years is these few sincere students.

"Right now, the world is not peaceful, and the barbarian king intends to cause chaos. I heard from the county magistrate that Yongzhou in the south has been exploited by the barbarian king's men. The people cannot survive, and many refugees have gone north. Our Dingping County, although it is built around mountains, is also a remote place. The county seat, but it is inevitable that there will be no refugees passing by."

"Ah!" Cheng An's expression turned ugly, "Is there no countermeasure for the imperial court? I think the city is still normal as usual, so that's what the county magistrate means."

Sun Luqian finished eating the last pinch of pastry in his hand, and raised his hand to tell his junior brother to sit down, "We haven't reached that point yet, let's see. You, it doesn't matter whether you are in the court or not, you have only studied for a few years! Let me send my brother to you!" Go back, go back to the village and stay there, Rehe Village has natural dangers, and relies on the mountains to support itself, no one can find it there, as long as it is safe and sound, we will talk about it when the situation is stable."

Cheng An sighed, got up to find brother Shui, stopped at the door, turned around and said, "If there is any danger in Dingping in the future, teacher and senior brother will go home with me!"

The two people in the seat laughed and said his childish words, but they were still very sweet, Lu Qian waved his hands, "Go, tell Brother Shui to go back after shopping."

Seeing that these two people were not at odds, Cheng An stopped asking. Although a gentleman does not stand under a wall, his teacher and senior brother are not ordinary people, and he thinks it is difficult to guess their thoughts. Take care of Brother Shui, otherwise his father won't skin him!

After finishing speaking, he bid farewell to the two of them and rushed to the big market in the town street to find brother Shui.He also planned to buy more food and things. Now that he went back to the village, he might be able to come out again. He still had to save the daily necessities of salt and rice.

The county magistrate of Dingping County was born in the army, and he is very good at managing law and order in the city. Therefore, although it has been closed in recent years and the voices of people are chaotic, they are all business transactions that abide by order. Anyone who wants to fish in troubled waters will be caught. The severe punishment is beheading.So over the years, there are very few accidents at the end of the year.In this way, Cheng An was relieved to go shopping alone.

Chengan took a shortcut to the bakery at the end of Daji, but when there was no water, he thought, Brother Shui must have not finished shopping in this short time, so he walked along the street to find some supplies while buying some supplies. people.

Until he approached a roasted duck stall, he saw many people surrounding it, and looked inside, okay, it's not Brother Shui in the middle!At this moment, he was holding his precious "dog bastard" in his left hand, and a bunch of money in his right hand, apologizing to the stall owner with a look of dismay.

It turned out that when the water entered the set, I was dazzled.He didn't care about the purse accessories stalls. He saw a lot of modern handicrafts, and he didn't think they were so amazing. They were not as diverse as the sweaters he knitted himself. Besides, he was a man, why would he buy those colorful and willow green ones.

But when he came across a small stall selling some spices, he had to stop patiently, took out money to buy some and put them in the basket until he woke up the sleeping little white wolf in the basket. I sneezed, but it was too noisy nearby, and I didn't hear the water for a while.

Walking all the way in the water, there are already a few children laughing and laughing behind him. It is because the little wolf cub wants to take a breath of fresh air, and because there are too many people, he dare not come out. Put the wolf's mouth on the edge of the basket, and extend the nostrils out of the basket.

So from the back of Shuishi, you can see that this is a thin little brother, walking around with a basket on his back. There should be a living thing in the basket, but only one black and moist nostril is exposed, and two Furry white claw tips.

When the children found out, they followed behind all the time, sometimes raised their hands to scratch the white claw with a twig, and were scratched several times by the sharp little claw.From time to time, a candy or something would be hung from a branch for the little dark nose to smell.

The little white wolf sniffed at the candy and ignored it noblely until he stopped at a stall selling rice.He squatted down and looked at the rice here carefully. The fruits were very small, many of them were eaten by moths, and they had only been husked, and they were still brown rice. It would take a lot of work to buy them back.

Shuishi stood in front of the stall and wanted to go back and how to get rid of the brown rice, so he was squeezed into the gap between the rice shop and another stall by the flowing crowd. Coincidentally, it was a roasted duck...

The little white wolf has been fed cooked food since it was weaned, and it is very good at eating it. Smelling the delicious freshly baked duck, it stretched its mouth out vigorously, constantly wriggling its nose, and the saliva flowed down from the corner of its mouth. , wet the edge of the basket.

Looking at the scorching duck hanging on the hook on the shop floor, the little white wolf furtively stretched out his paws, scratching back and forth, finally!Grab the duck and drag it into the basket!When the stall owner turned his head, he found that the duck only showed its palm outside the basket!

How could this stall owner be forgiving, he stole his ducks while talking about water with a tiger face, until he opened the basket and saw a greasy face under the basket, but he could still see a good-looking "dog boy", Only then did he let go, and he didn't want any money anymore, just give this bastard to him when he called for water, and he will let this little guy eat duck every day from now on!

He couldn't laugh or cry when he was in the water, sending it off was absolutely impossible, and he was still counting on this little thing!So I could only take out the money in embarrassment, stumbled and apologized, and bought another freshly roasted one, wrapped it in lotus leaves, and didn't know who to take it back to eat.

Chengan squeezed into the laughing crowd, brought out his face flushed and raised his hands to cover the basket of water, and knocked him out of his head, "Just say you, you don't mind running around the county town with a son of a bitch on your back." It sinks!"

Shui Shi scratched his head and smiled with his eyes bent, and obediently stood beside Cheng An, Cheng An sighed, he finally realized how hard it is to be an elder brother, he couldn't bear to reprimand him, but also couldn't control him!So I had to go outside the set while carrying water, "Have you bought everything yet?"

Nodded while drinking water, "I have bought everything, put the light ones in the back basket, heavy rice noodles or cooking utensils, and ask the boss to deliver them to the bullock cart at the gate of the city in a while, and give them money when they arrive."

Cheng An nodded, "Then let's go." The street is actually quite short, and the two of them passed the bustling place, and they arrived at the bakery. The burnt aroma is still exuding bursts of oily aroma.The Zheng family loved to eat this, and it was the New Year's Eve, so they spared no expense. They bought a lot of biscuits before returning to the gate of the city.

Without further ado, Cheng An ordered the coachman to leave the city as soon as he got all his things, so that he could get home before dawn.

However, it was too late for them to leave the city. Before noon, there were already refugees hovering at the gate of the city, looking for a gap to enter the city to find a way out.The county magistrate's city guards were dispatched just in time, and they had already asked people to set up a shed at the gate of the city to serve porridge, but the porridge and rice were very watery, enough to keep the refugees from starving to death.

This is the way of coping in Xiangxiaozhu Town in the surrounding city. The county magistrate did not dare to put more rice, so as not to spread the word to ten or ten to hundreds. If refugees flocked to it, wouldn't it mean that the city would be destroyed.He was born as a soldier, so his reputation doesn't matter, as long as the whole county lives well, it is true.After all, he has been the official of the county magistrate's parents for many years.

Cheng An frowned, and told the coachman to drive quickly, there were not many people at the moment, and after a while, maybe they would not be able to leave.

When he was in the water, he stared blankly at the refugees who were half-clothed and lying at the base of the city. He finally saw what it means to have a road full of frozen bones and a full road full of hunger.

The toughness and indifference of the guards and soldiers, as well as Zheng Cheng'an's way of ignoring him and returning home in a hurry, revealed another aspect of this world to him.

It was his luck that he could wake up in the den where the wolves in Dongshan were howling.

When the chariots and horses were traveling during the flood, the refugees did not have the guts to rob the townspeople under the watchful eyes of the guards. It was just a thin woman who jumped in front of the wheels, not afraid of being run over by the wheels, and kept feeding the people on the chariot. People kowtowed, and her son was leaning against the root of the city, starving to death.

When Shui Shi looked at her with such an expression, he really couldn't bear it, and put himself in the same place, if it were his mother, she must have risked her life to save him in the same way at this time.So he took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, stuffed her with a bag of pancakes, then turned around and left, telling the carriage to go faster.

Cheng An sighed, he didn't blame Shui, he just became more vigilant about his surroundings.

But when the ox cart left the sight of the city guards and was about to march on the jungle path back home, something happened.

The son of the woman who kowtowed just now was said to be dying, but now, he led several people, walking steadily, with green eyes, catching up with the bullock cart, and surrounded the three of them in Shuishi, with knives and sticks in their hands , Seeing to do it.

"Leave no survivors, lest the city soldiers find out." Hearing what the man said, Shui Shi felt cold, the coachman yelled, when they called for water, they jumped out of the car and went into the forest, while they ran quickly into the forest.Seeing this, several thieves surrounded him with cheers.

Cheng An ran while dragging the water, but unexpectedly, several stones struck them from behind, hitting them directly. This must be their usual method of chasing people. Zheng Chengan is not very old, and he is also a scholar, so his physique is really not that good In the same way, he was hit in the head and fainted.

Shui Shi couldn't leave Cheng An behind no matter what, he took out the kitchen knife in the back basket with one hand to protect Cheng An, swiped the knife and slashed a thief who came forward, but they were holding the knife and stick together, trying to make chaos When the stick beats dead water.

At this time, the little wolf in the back basket rushed out "swish", and he no longer had the appearance of gagging, stealing and playing tricks in the past. It showed the fierceness and fierceness of the wolf king's direct lineage, with frizzy hair and fangs, and cold eyes. Before the water, he opened his mouth and howled in the wilderness.

When the few people heard the howl of the wolf, they panicked, but the leader's expression turned serious, "Quick, kill it first!"

Unexpectedly, the little white wolf was extremely agile, it jumped on a man's head, grabbed his eyes, and then showed his wolf's hunting instinct, and opened his mouth to bite the man's throat.The rest of the people didn't care about the person who was bitten and screamed, and when they saw a gap, they immediately rushed to the water.

His body trembled in the water, but he gritted his teeth and held the kitchen knife tightly, intending to pull a backrest even if he died!

The man grinned his yellow teeth and rushed towards the water.Lu had Yizi to eat, and this person did not know how many "two-legged sheep" he had robbed along the way to eat.He shouted when he was in the water, closed his eyes and swung the knife short of breath.

But the knife didn't hit the real place, but there was a scream of "ah" from the opposite side, and there was no movement.As soon as Shuishi opened his eyes, he exhaled in an instant, unconsciously, his body relaxed, and his heart settled down.

An incomparably tall body stood in front of him, his solid right arm grabbed the man's throat, and with a lift, the man's feet were lifted off the ground in an instant, and there was only a "clack" when the water fell, and the yellow-toothed The thief dropped his hands and feet limply, and was thrown far away by Fu Li.

The few remaining people ran away upon seeing this.They checked that there were only three people in the cart, both old and young, and a brother with a very light pregnancy mole, so they decided to do it here, killing people, stealing goods, and killing people.

Who would have expected that such a vicious person would be killed halfway!They watched this man leap out of the forest silently, his burly body was scary to look at, and his complexion was different, his eyes were red gold, and his body was boiling with murderous aura!Just one face-to-face twisted his accomplice's neck.

Fu Li was furious, and instantly rushed towards a few people, and within a few moments of raising his hands, these people were dripping with blood, but he was not in a hurry to kill, but planned to tear off his limbs and torture them to death.You must know that hunting by wolves has always been a one-hit kill. They respect life, which is also the last kindness of predators.

But Fu Li violated the rules, he tilted his head slightly, exposing his cold fangs, his eyes were red, and his brutal animalism prevailed.

This kind of Fu Li scared the little wolf next to him. Its mouth was still smeared with blood, but it still closed its sharp teeth, turned its ears back as if surrendering, and hid beside Shui Shi with a humming sound.

This is Fu Li, whom Shui Shi has never seen before. He is full of animal nature, grinding his teeth to allow blood, and killing people like hemp.

But Shui Shi clenched his hands hesitantly, and still whispered his name behind the man.

"Fu, Fu Li."

"Let's, let's go home."
