Chapter 72 Huo Feng of the Yun Sect (I)
The camp fire of the merchants soon lit up.
They took firewood from their bags and lit the campfire, and then gathered around the fire to keep warm.
At this time, they had changed their wet clothes, wrung them dry, and hung them by the fire to dry.
Everyone was hungry after driving all the way in the rain.
While baking, they took out the pot in their bags and put it on the fire and began to cook porridge.
Others went to the back of the corral and began to feed forage to pack animals. Soon the smell of rice porridge floated in the house.
It's good to have a hot porridge when you go out. What's more, the rice porridge also added some broken meat and vegetables, which did taste good.
When everyone in the caravan filled hot porridge respectively, the leader walked towards the corner with two bowls of hot porridge and came to the little girl and the wolf.
His face was full of smiles. "Do you want to have some hot porridge?"
The little girl looked at the White Wolf beside her. Seeing that the white wolf was still silent and obviously not interested in the hot porridge, she shook her head and said, "No, thank you."
She didn't say much, and simply refused, so the leader had to go back with porridge.
However, the team leader just asked politely to show goodwill. If it was him, he would not accept strangers' food, so the little girl's refusal was not unexpected to him.
But the little girl's action of looking at the White Wolf first and then answering made him confused.
After returning to his companion, the leader couldn't help looking back at the White Wolf over there.
In the dim light of the fire, the White Wolf was lying down beside the fire and seemed to be asleep. Although the body shape is much larger than that of ordinary wild wolves, fierce beasts larger than this white wolf can be found everywhere in the wilderness.
A little girl who can walk alone in the wilderness with a magical white wolf is not surprising.
But judging from what the little girl just did, it seems that the white wolf is the dominant party between the two.
And the little girl's silver hair and sharp ears are similar to the White Wolf…
The leader silently lowered his head and dared not look again for fear of misunderstanding.
His caravan is actually powerful. As long as they don't encounter evil people, most beasts can't eat their caravan.
And even if they encounter demons, it is guaranteed that their team can deal with them.
But the one who can deal with evils is not here for the time being…
The leader subconsciously looked out of the room, a little worried.
If the white wolf is really… Old Huo, how long are you going to go…
The team leader was anxious, but in order to not scare everyone, he didn't even dare to voice his speculations. Instead, he sat in the middle of the crowd, pretending as if nothing had happened.
Outside, the wind and rain became more and more violent. Although the thunder and lightning have stopped, the rain is getting heavier and heavier, and the cold wind is tearing everything in the mountain.
In the post house with the door open, the cold wind blew in from time to time, and the body was cold, but everyone dared not close the door.
Before they came, the gate of the post house opened, and there was a girl with a wolf sitting inside.
If they close the door as soon as they come in… Who knows if such a move will annoy the girl and the wolf?
It's better to do less than more when you go out. No one in the caravan has a weak body, and they don't really care about suffering some cold wind.
And beside the fire, as the body warms up and the hot porridge goes down, the people also gradually relax. Although he still dared not make a noise, he whispered and talked about his plan to go to Whitestone.
Occasionally, there will be a low smile.
In this gradually relaxed atmosphere, a dull drum suddenly sounded in the dark rainstorm in the distance.
Dong Dong——
At the moment when the drum sounded, Xiao Ai looked up and looked out, frowning slightly.
However, the group of businessmen on the side recognized the voice and all smiled.
"Old Huo is back…"
"Finally back."
"I don't know whether Old Huo caught the fat bird or not. If he caught it, he would make a lot of money…"
"Hey, hey… Old Huo has been there for so long, that he must have caught it. Otherwise, he would have come back early…"
The businessmen talked excitedly, and even forgot to lower their voices.
The fat bird is a rare beast, shaped like a quail, with yellow feathers and a red beak. Eating it can cure acne. If there are insects and other parasites in the body, eating the fat bird's meat can also kill them, making this bird a natural cure for these parasites.
If you brought the bird to Baishi City, you could definitely sell it at a good price.
Thinking of this, everyone in the caravan smiled. The leader was even more relieved and secretly glanced at the White Wolf beside the fire.
But he saw the White Wolf still lying quietly beside the fire, closed his eyes and turned a deaf ear to the movement outside.
Soon, the noise of rapid hooves sounded.
In the dark rain curtain, a pure white "Horse" broke through the rain curtain and appeared in the view of everyone at a very fast speed.
The knight on the horse was all wet, but he had a bright smile. He carried a comatose fat bird in his hand and laughed at the people in the room.
"Got it! Brothers, we made a lot of money this time."
With that, he jumped up directly from the "Horse".
Everyone in the caravan was welcomed in, and a happy laugh sounded outside the house.
Naturally, some of them also led the white horse to the corral behind.
When being led away, the white horse neighed like a drum.
It was the white horse that made the drum sound in the previous rainstorm.
This strange cry made Lu Heng near the fire open his eyes. He was a little surprised and found that the white horse outside was not an ordinary horse.
Although it has a horse's body, its tail is a slender oxtail. The four feet are not horseshoes, but giant tiger like paws with sharp claws.
When the white horse roars, you can see the sharp fangs in its mouth. Although like ordinary horses, they have neat upper and lower rows of teeth, the teeth of this white horse are sharp and terrifying, more like the fangs of sharks.
If bitten by this white horse, I'm afraid the whole arm will be torn off.
Xiao Ai whispered aside.
"This is a Bo horse. It travels thousands of miles a day and travels very fast. It only eats lions and tigers in the mountains. Eating a tiger and it will not feel hungry for half a year. It's an extremely rare mount."
"However, the difficulty of subduing this Bo horse is also very high, which can only be achieved by people with cultivation."
Xiao Ai carefully explained it to Lord Wolf God.
These interesting things outside the mountain that she heard from her mother in the past can now be explained to Lord Wolf God. She is very happy.
Lu Heng smiled and said, "Your mother knows so many things. It seems that her birth is indeed extraordinary… Xiao Ai, are you interested in exploring?"
Lu Heng's inquiry stunned the little girl.
She shook her head and whispered, "My mother's greatest wish before her death is that I can spend my life safely in Shuisheng village."
"Now Xiao Ai is a disciple of Wolf God and I don't be afraid anymore. My mother's wish has come true. I think if she knows Xiao Ai's luck, she will be happy enough."
Beside the fire, Lu Heng looked at the little girl's expression, felt the faint melancholy in the little girl's heart, and knew that the little girl was not lying. Lu Heng knew these words were sincere.
So he closed his eyes and stopped talking.
Outside, the man surnamed Huo had been welcomed in by the crowd.
After seeing the strange combination of one girl and one wolf in the corner, Huo Feng was stunned and quickly bowed.
"Oh, there are friends in the room… I'm Huo Feng of the Yun sect. I'm staying here with my brothers today. I hope we don't make trouble for you."
Huo Feng, who is a cultivator, doesn't have to be as careful as everyone in the caravan. But it's better to be polite to others, so he salutes in advance.
However, the girl beside the fire just finished talking with Lord Wolf God. She missed her mother in her heart and was melancholic.
In the face of Hu Feng's politeness, the little girl just nodded coldly and said, "Lu Ai, from Hanyu mountain."
With five simple words, she lowered her eyebrows and continued to turn over the rabbit meat on the fire.
After a long time of roasting, the rabbit meat is almost ready. She has to take care of it carefully to avoid scorching. She is not interested in chatting with these rough and strong men.
Seeing her cold temper, Huo Feng stopped talking.
Although the girl's silver hair and ears are quite strange, those who can walk alone in the wilderness are not ordinary people. It's not surprising that the body is abnormal.
He and his brothers came to the fire. After breathing, all the water on his body was evaporated.
The comatose fat bird was caged by the caravan people.
Huo Feng said with a smile, "This fat bird is slippery and difficult to catch. If I wasn't riding the Bo horse, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to catch it. After running in the mountains for five or six hours, I finally caught it."
Huo Feng laughed and talked with the crowd about the hard work of chasing the fat bird during the day. The leader scooped a bowl of hot porridge for him and said, "Brother Huo, eat some hot porridge first, or it will be cold later."
"Good!" Huo Feng took the hot porridge and sat down.
Under the intentional guidance of the team leader, everyone's attention turned to the fat bird and began to discuss the rumors of the fat bird.
After everyone temporarily forgot Hu Feng, the leader sat next to Hu Feng and whispered in a voice that only Hu Feng could hear, "Brother Huo, do you think that girl and the wolf are demons?"
Huo Feng, who was eating porridge, was stunned for a moment, looked up, and looked at the corner again. He shook his head and said, "No, although the little girl has silver hair and ears. Her breath is peaceful, neutral, and even with a shuddering pressure. She is a real cultivator. Her cultivation, I'm afraid, is higher than mine, and she is by no means a demon."
"What about the White Wolf…" the leader swallowed his saliva and whispered, "When I went to deliver porridge just now, I found that the little woman seemed to listen to the white wolf."
"Oh?" The leader's words made Huo Feng raise his head in surprise.
He looked at the white wolf again, and saw the White Wolf lying beside the fire, sleeping with his eyes closed, without the slightest evil aura. Although it is huge, it doesn't pose a threat to Hu Feng.
However, the leader's words made him a little curious.
With a thought, the breath in Huo Feng's body surged, and the magic eye in the middle of his eyebrow immediately opened and looked directly at the White Wolf beside the fire.
In an instant…
"Poof!"
Huo Feng, who was carrying the porridge, directly took a mouthful of blood and spewed out. If the whole person was hit hard, he flew backward directly and hit the wall heavily.
In the stunned gaze of the caravan crowd, Hu Feng, who was just in high spirits, now lay on the ground, convulsed and fainted.
The miserable appearance made people feel chilly…
