I became an exiled convict after we got married

Chapter 96 The Wolves
The wind was cold, the snow was flying, and the sky was overcast.

The messengers found a cave sheltered from the wind and snow, and built a fire.

Wan Jinlan already had a little frostbite on her hands. Even though she had prepared in advance and wore thick clothes, she still felt uncomfortable after staying in the wilderness for several days and nights, even if she lit a fire.

Xiao Feng took out a warm water bag from his bosom, handed it to him, and went to pick up dry firewood.

Under normal circumstances, the two can only move around under the noses of the messengers. If Wan Jinlan is out of respect, they can go a little further.

They are not afraid of them fleeing, after all, they wear bracelets and anklets, which control their movements, and a step is at most two feet away.

After Wan Jinlan drank the water, he set firewood and lit a fire. There was a frozen lake not far away. Xiao Feng took a stone and smashed a hole. After a while, he caught fish and came up.

If they could eat fish, the messengers would naturally not let go of the ice hole that was smashed open. After a while, the smell of fish wafted from the temporary camp.

As the night gradually approached, Wan Jinlan had enough to eat and drink, and gathered around the fire to warm up.

The cave that can shelter from the wind and snow has been occupied by the messengers, and the two can only snuggle together and lean against the fire outside the cave to keep warm, so that the messengers can see the two of them without being drenched in the wind and snow.

The firewood was buzzing in the night, and the red flames were printed on the faces of the two of them. Jie Er, who was on guard outside the cave, glanced at Wan Jinlan from time to time.

Xiao Feng's expression became more and more condensed.

A few days is enough for him to observe the origins of the solvers.

Among the 36 people, more than a dozen were secret guards like Jiang Huo in the past, and the rest were escorts in charge of escorting prisoners on weekdays.

The general solution is easy to deal with, but the trouble is the dozen or so.

The dilemma they are facing now is whether the emperor will allow them to reach Fangling safely. If it is safe, the difficulty of fleeing is probably not much less than it is now.

If an accident happened halfway, how would they get out safely and get rid of the emperor completely.

Wan Jinlan was extremely disgusted by the naked eyes of the night watchman.

There was a tearing sound in the forest, like the sound of feet stepping on dead leaves and snow.

The two were vigilant at the same time.

Xie Cha, who was on guard in the night, was just an ordinary soldier, and he didn't pay attention to the sound mixed with the sound of wind and snow, so he glanced at Wan Jinlan from time to time.

Suddenly, seeing a pair of eyes shining in the night, Wan Jinlan shook Xiao Feng's hand.

The two looked at each other in the firelight.

Wan Jinlan suddenly shouted: "The wolves are coming."

The messengers who were resting in the cave woke up instantly, and took up their weapons one after another to the entrance of the cave.

Hearing this, the guard who was on guard hurried to the cave.

Xiao Feng tightly dragged Wan Jinlan to move behind the messengers.

Although the two of them hadn't completely lost their force now, they naturally had to find ways to preserve themselves in the face of this situation.

There are more wolves than they imagined, and they have surrounded the entire exit.

The pack of wolves had been hungry for many days, but they couldn't bear the delicious food and launched an attack.

The howl of the wolf, the painful wail of the bitten Jiecha.

The messengers in front of Wan Jinlan and Xiao Feng fought against the pack of wolves, and they couldn't escape the sharp eyes of the wolves.

Wan Jinlan waved a burning firewood stick in his hand, a wolf flew over, showing its sharp fangs, Xiao Feng used the chain in his hand to throw the wolves out.

The wolves seemed to see the situation where the two were "alone and alone" and they were the best to bully, and attacked them one after another.

The moment Wan Jinlan was thrown down, sharp-eyed saw the leader Xiecha glance indifferently in the direction of her and Xiao Feng. He didn't care about their life or death at all.

It was expected, and she didn't even frown.As long as these people don't stab them in the back, it's fine.

Wan Jinlan kicked the wolf out fiercely with her anklet-wearing legs, and then rolled over to avoid the next attacking wolf.

With her feet on the ground, her abdomen exerted strength, she jumped up and stood up, and then she passed the bracelet around the wolf's head, and the back of her hand narrowly rubbed against the wolf's teeth. Her blood was hot, her eyes were wide open, and she pulled hard with both hands, The veins swelled up, and a wolf died instantly, and fell down on its side.

The chains that bound her became tools for killing wolves.

Her movements are very dexterous, her shots look light but they are as powerful as a cow and extremely ruthless.

Wan Jinlan and Xiao Feng leaned back against each other, confronting the pack of wolves. There were three wolf corpses around them, and both of them had blood on their faces.

There were casualties among the messengers. Seeing that there was no benefit for them, the leading wolves raised their heads to the sky and let out a long roar. The wolves in front attacked even more fiercely.

This is a very organized pack with attacking cover and prey hauled to the mouth.

In less than one stick of incense, the wolves quickly retreated.

"Head, save someone quickly."

The leading messenger shook his head, "I can't survive if I save him."

He chose to give up, and the ordinary messengers chased into the forest, and it didn't take long for them to come back angrily.

The atmosphere between the resolutions was somewhat tense.

"Our life is not our life? You are just a job, and you don't care about it on weekdays. Just now, you obviously have spare energy, but you just watched them being bitten to death and dragged away."

A clerk with blood all over his face asked angrily.

His wife's younger brother was one of those who were dragged away by the pack of wolves just now.

These fresh faces sent from above are obviously superior in force, but they are unwilling to save them.

"If you have the guts, go and save yourself. If you can't survive, you can only blame yourself for your incompetence." The leader Xie Shi looked cold, and the cold blood belonging to the dark guard was instantly revealed.

Wan Jinlan and Xiao Feng stood silently in the corner, watching the confrontation between the two parties, and counted the messengers who were still alive.

There were originally 36 people, but now there are 29.

Most of the dead are ordinary solutions.

Wan Jinlan felt that she was very cold-blooded at this time, and she was still thinking in her heart that she should not die.

Xiao Feng tore off a hem of the clothes, handed it to her to wipe his face, felt the shape of the hard object wrapped in the hem, Wan Jinlan secretly opened a corner, and saw a key.

Xiao Feng's face was calm, but there was a smile in his eyes.

Wan Jinlan really didn't expect that in the chaos just now, he could take the opportunity to get a key.

There are four chains on the two of them, a total of four small keys, which are hung on the four of them respectively. This is the result of several days of observation by the two of them.

Xiao Feng said almost in a whisper by stroking her temples: "There are still people in the dark."

Wan Jinlan hid the key with a vigilant expression.

Just when the messengers were confronting each other, and everyone thought the crisis was resolved, a group of masked killers suddenly appeared, and two sharp arrows stabbed at Wan Jinlan and Xiao Feng in the darkness.

"There are assassins!"

The messengers were shocked and drew their swords to meet the enemy. Seeing that the assassin was going towards Wan Jinlan and the two of them, they relaxed again.
