Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 548: Grassland Chaos 2
The climate on the grassland is unpredictable, especially this winter. Gongsun Xu has been wandering on the grassland for so long, and now he is completely lost.Now he can only walk out of the grassland by himself and return to northern Xinjiang.

The dark clouds in the sky are getting darker, and the old people who have lived on the grassland for a long time understand that this is a precursor to the coming of heavy snow.The further north you go, the colder it will be, and when it snows, you will suffer more severe snow disasters.

On the vast grassland, a deer ran wildly in panic. More than 100 steps behind, a fast horse passed by like lightning, and then the cavalry on the horse shot an arrow casually, and the deer in front fell down.

"Hehe, I have to eat venison again tonight." The knight took off the fur cap on his head, revealing his resolute appearance.This is Gongsun Xu who lives in the grassland.After wandering on the grassland for so long, he has always tried to avoid consuming dry food.

So he would come out to hunt every few days. Fortunately, there were many animals on the grassland, and the route he was taking was almost no-man’s land, and no one would disturb him. Therefore, Gongsun Xu relied on his riding skills And archery, can always return with a full load within an hour.

Not long after, Gongsun Xu rode his horse and came to a forest. After looking around the forest, Gongsun Xu whistled, and there was a neighing sound of a war horse in the woods, and a black horse of great steed held its head high. ran out.

"Thank you, old friend." Gongsun Xuce immediately patted Mo Longju and said with a smile, "Every time I go hunting, I have to keep you behind. Wild wolves, tigers and leopards are always unavoidable, if I don’t keep you, I’m really relieved.”

"Is the husband back?" A voice came from the forest and said, "Did you hunt the prey so quickly today?"

"It's me, Daoer." Gongsun Xu rode his horse into the woods and said, "Today is lucky, I met a deer in less than half an hour, and I will have deer soup tonight."

Soon, the smell of barbecue and broth wafted from the woods. Gongsun Xu dared to live and cook only in such a deserted place. If there were enemy troops nearby, it would definitely not be a good thing.

But Zhen Dao is pregnant now, Gongsun Xu can't let her endure hardships with him, if she eats dry food every day, even if Zhen Dao can bear it, the child in her stomach can't stand it, only by eating hot food every meal can replenish in time Nutrition and fitness.

"Husband, I'm a little tired after traveling like this every day." After eating, Zhen Dao snuggled into Gongsun Xu's arms and said, "When can we go home?"

"Let's continue to go north for a while." Touching his beloved wife's hair, Gongsun Xu was also full of happiness: "You are really not suitable for bumping now, and we will settle down temporarily after we find a suitable place. Make you jolt."

It's getting dark, and they will camp in the woods tonight, and they will set off again after dawn tomorrow. Although the ambush did not find the shadow of the enemy army, it does not mean that they are safe now. If they want to get rid of the danger completely, then They had to go north and make a detour back to Hetao.

Not long after, Mo Longju, who was grazing on the side, suddenly raised his head and let out a long cry, and the other two horses also looked up at the forest ahead almost at the same time. Gongsun Xu narrowed his eyes, and comforted Zhen Dao, "You should rest for a while, I'll go out and check."

"Come back early." Zhen Dao replied, "It's getting dark, I'm scared alone."

"Don't worry, I'll be back soon."

After walking about thirty steps away, Gongsun Xu immediately climbed up a big tree beside him and stood on the trunk. Gongsun Xu looked around, and two black spots a hundred steps away on the left attracted his attention force.

Two thin figures were approaching him. Judging from their movements and figures, they didn't seem to be soldiers, but they were heading towards the camp where Gongsun Xu was camping. It seemed that their target was Gongsun Xu.

Without any hesitation or pity, Gongsun Xu took out his bow and arrow and aimed at the front. It is definitely not a good thing for these two people to appear in this place. Gongsun Xu will not let anyone threaten his safety, let alone let anyone hurt him. wife.

However, it is not easy to shoot two people in this overgrown forest. In addition, Gongsun Xu will lose one arrow for every arrow he consumes, so after thinking about it, Gongsun Xu put away his bow and arrow , instead climbed down the big tree, drew out his military thorns and lurked forward.

After finding a place to hide, Gongsun Xu was calculating the distance between the two opponents and himself. When he heard the sound of a branch being trampled, Gongsun Xu suddenly jumped up. Clawed towards another person.

Lurking, attacking, and paying attention to one-hit kills.Be fast, be accurate, and be ruthless.

Just when Gongsun Xu was about to succeed, he suddenly saw two pairs of frightened and helpless eyes.

In the blink of an eye, Gongsun Xu put away his weapon and knocked the two down.

What kind of soldiers are these two people? For a moment, the two were too scared to stand up.

After confirming that there were no offensive weapons on them, Gongsun Xu asked, "Who are you and why are you here?"

The two children stared at Gongsunxu in horror, as if they couldn't understand what he was saying.

After waiting for a while, Gongsun Xu found out that he was wrong. The two children should be Han Chinese. Judging from the shape of their faces, they are either Xianbei or Huns. Now this land is undoubtedly Huns.

Fortunately, Gongsun Xu also knew a little bit about the language of the Huns. After he asked the question in the language of the Huns, the panic of the two children was weakened a little.

"We smell the scent." The older child replied tremblingly: "We want to come over to ask for some food, so,,,,,,"

"It seems that the scent attracted them here." Gongsun Xu sighed in his heart: "It seems that I was negligent. Even if I don't attract others to barbecue in this forest, those hungry beasts may also smell it." Hurry up with the scent."

Just when Gongsun Xu was about to continue asking questions, there was a scream from behind, mixed with Mo Longju's roar.

"No, there are beasts." Gongsun Xu rushed back immediately, he knew that something must have happened to Zhen Dao, otherwise Mo Longju wouldn't have roared like this.

He didn't know what happened until he ran back. A brown bear about two meters high ran over at some point, and he was now confronting Mo Longju. Zhen Daohe had never seen such a beast before, and she was hiding in the trembling aside.

"Damn it." Gongsun Xu scolded, "Why did you provoke this kind of thing?"

The brown bear also found Gongsun Xu, and it seemed that it felt that Gongsun Xu would bring it greater danger, so it gave up its plan to attack Mo Longju, and walked towards Gongsun Xu instead.

"Hehe, Xiong Xiazi." Gongsun Xu took off his bow and arrow and said with a sneer, "I want to see what you can do."

Just as the brown bear turned around Gongsun Xu, it found Zhen Dao who was hiding aside. Compared to Gongsun Xu, it wanted to eat Zhen Dao now.

Gongsun Xu also found that the situation was not good. Just as he was about to release the arrow, several stones fell on the brown bear, accompanied by some shouts.

It turned out that the two children ran over with Gongsun Xu, and they also found that the brown bear was going to attack Zhen Dao, so they immediately picked up a stone on the ground and threw it at the brown bear.

But this time, they angered the brown bear. The two children were obviously easier to deal with, and the brown bear roared and rushed towards them.

At the critical moment, Gongsun Xu hit the brown bear's eyes with two arrows.If the brown bear hadn't just been distracted, Gongsun Xu wouldn't have found such an opportunity.

There was a tragic roar in the forest, the brown bear roared wildly, and then waved its front paw, and the two big trees were broken.

Mo Longju suddenly appeared behind the brown bear, and with a neigh, he lifted up and kicked the brown bear fiercely. The brown bear was relatively strong, and it was difficult to turn around for a while.

After finally waiting for it to turn around and strike, Gongsun Xu had already drawn out his saber and appeared on the left side of the brown bear's body. Immediately afterwards, Gongsun Xu rose into the air and chopped off the brown bear's head with one blow.

The brown bear that lost its head twitched twice and then stopped moving. Gongsun Xu turned to look at the two terrified children and said, "Thank you."

The two children were indeed terrified. The brown bear's movement speed just now was not unpleasant. Coupled with the momentum of the brown bear's rush, they were already paralyzed by fright.

Not long after, Gongsun Xu packed up the brown bear and handed a roasted deer to the two children, saying, "Eat it, and go home quickly after eating."

The two boys carried the venison leg, drooling but did not eat it, and they looked at the rest of the venison on the shelf from time to time.

"Greedy ghost." Gongsun Xu shook his head and smiled, "Forget it, I'll give you some more."

After speaking, Gongsun Xu cut off another deer leg and handed it to them.

The two children took the deer legs and left. For these two children, Gongsun Xu didn't want their lives. After all, they were only two children and they would not pose a threat to him. He would leave after dawn.

But the matter did not end like this. Half an hour later, a group of about 20 people came over supporting each other, the two children were the leader, followed by children in their teens and eight middle-aged women.

When these people walked in front of Gongsun Xu, they all knelt down and kowtowed to Gongsun Xu at the same time.

"Why are there so many women and children here?" Gongsun Xu wondered in his heart, "There shouldn't be tribes in such a deserted place, and judging from the situation, they should have lost their middle-aged males."

"Husband, they are so pitiful." Zhen Dao stepped forward and said, "Why don't you give them all the food?"

Gongsun Xu nodded and said with a smile: "I think so too. These people seem to have been hungry for a long time. If they can't find anything to eat, they will starve to death."

After finishing speaking, Gongsun Xu ordered everyone to come up to share the barbecue and broth. These people had only come here to ask for something to eat with one ten thousandth hope. They didn't expect Gongsun Xu to be so generous.

After some exchanges, Gongsun Xu learned that the men of their tribe had been conscripted away two months ago. The tribe was attacked half a month ago, and many members of the tribe were killed. They survived by luck. But they lacked food and clothing. Before they met Gongsun Xu, they had been out of food for two days.

"What happened to the grassland?" Gongsun Xu wondered, "Who attacked the Xiongnu tribe? It seems that the grassland is getting more and more chaotic."
