Soul Echo

The cold wind is roaring, standing high in the sky, staring at the guy who is 'crawling' on the ground, showing a sarcastic smile - how can anyone dare to challenge the storm and travel in this weather?

And on the ground, there is only one carriage!

At this point, Zhong Ye had stepped down from the driver's seat, and together with the draw horse, pulled out the carriage that was deep in the pit.

Even if the body is wrapped in animal skins and the four legs are tied with thick cloth, the draught horse can still feel the cold.

"Teacher, let's find a place to avoid it!" Lillian shouted from behind the carriage.

After shouting, Lilian couldn't help sniffing, her face full of sorrow.

How long has it been since she had a cold in real life? didn't expect In the game, you can also experience a cold... This is not a good experience!

"No need to..."

Zhong Ye looked at the sky with firm eyes, "This snow won't last long!"

The fact is just as As Zhong Ye said, wind is never a patient thing.

After taunting the fools on the ground, the cold wind quickly left, with a arrogant laughter, it went to the next place, aimlessly and freely.

Lilian has returned to the carriage, wrapped in fur, sniffing, and staring out the window dully.

——The snow really only blew for a while!

When the strong wind moved away, the snowflakes falling from the sky gradually became sparser, and after a while, it stopped completely.

Although there was snow on the road, the frost and snow alone could not stop the carriage from moving forward.

Zhong Ye in the heart calculated silently, now they should be in the Duchy of Bourbon, about eighteen days away from Paris...

…………

xu lu lu! xu lu lu!

The drag horse kicked the ice in horror, but its four hooves kept slipping, making it a problem to stand firm.

Therefore, Zhong Ye had to temporarily take over the job of pulling the horse and pull the carriage himself. Lillian, who was dressed like a ball, also got out of the car and tried her best to push behind the carriage.

They did intend to take the main road at first, but after coming here, they suddenly found that the main road was interrupted.

These roads have always been built and maintained by the local lords, perhaps because the lords have not sent people to repair them after the bridges across the river collapsed in the cold winter.

Fortunately, the river froze, allowing Zhong Ye and the others to walk across the river without having to make a detour.

Zhong Ye was silent, but his face was already flushed, and the muscles in his neck tightened.

Her horses can't be of much help, and occasionally they'll do a disservice, but Lillian's posture is adequate, but unfortunately she doesn't care about her strength, they are still wearing ordinary boots with soles Without nails, it slips easily.

Zhong Ye has heard Lilian's exclamation more than once. If nothing else, it was all after she slipped...

Abolished Strength of Nine Bulls and The Two Tigers pulled the carriage over from the other side of the river. Zhong Ye didn't breathe much, but Lilian and Wanma were so tired that they couldn't stop breathing.

Zhong Ye silently untied the sweaty hide and thick cloth from the haul horse, and hung it on the right and rear of the carriage to let the sweat dry.

After wiping the sweat off the horse, Zhong Ye put on new animal skins for it to prevent it from catching a cold.

There are still thirteen days away from Paris, and if the horses fall ill on the road, it will greatly delay their trip.

Looking up at the gray sky, Zhong Ye sighed deeply.

…………

"It's a wolf!"

"It's a pack of wolves!"

Standing on the edge of the caravan with a shield The escort Captain shouted loudly: "All shooters don't be stingy with bullets, no matter how many bullets you consume this battle, when the next city comes, we will pay for how much you replenish!"

Whether the guards or the The mercenaries were all refreshed, and they were instantly overjoyed.

The mercenaries who were hesitating with muskets in their hands raised their muzzles in the next instant, aiming at the wolves that surrounded the caravan.

If you look at it from a high altitude, you can see a sudden and huge mottled color on the white earth, brown or black, gray wolves are surrounded from all directions, and you can see these eyes The hungry wolf with green light, everyone feels the scalp tingling.

Guard Captain and several veterans in the caravan even stared at the wolves surrounding the caravan. They knew very well that if they could gather so many wolves, there must be a 'Wolf King' .

"ao wu!"

I don't know which wolf let out a terrifying cry, and the wolves wandering around the caravan instantly moved like quicksand , moved towards the center point.

Ordinary people have long been terrified, and obviously nothing happened, but they couldn't help holding their heads and screaming.

An anxious guard opened fire, followed by other guards and mercenaries.

Captain, the guard who held the shield in front of him, was nervous, but there were already two wolves running straight in front of him, waving their claws at the shield. He wanted to scold him, then he closed his mouth and supported it hard. .

Firing in a panic, not every bullet can land on the wolves accurately, some hit trees in the distance, shake off the snow and ice on the branches, and some shoot into the ground. Stir up a cloud of snow.

Even if they were shot, many of them landed on non-lethal body parts, making the ferocious wolves even more violent.

Roaring, whining and scolding, having ups and downs, the sound waves spread in all directions, causing pain in the eardrums.

Soon, the guard suffered the first casualty—a guard was careless and did not defend in time, his thigh was scratched with three deep bloodstains by sharp wolf claws, and an artery was torn , the blood kept pouring out.

The guards also screamed, but even if he looked pale, he still withstood the front line and waited until someone else took his place before backing off for treatment.

The first injured person appeared, followed by the second and third, but their injuries were not so serious that they would not be life-threatening.

The gunshots sounded one after another, and the hungry wolves continued to die, but the casualties of the guards and mercenaries were also increasing. In places where people could not see, the situation was slowly tilting towards the wolves.

At this moment, a bullet flew from behind the wolf pack, pierced a wolf's head directly, and killed it.

Pulling the bolt, reloading, loading, aiming, and shooting, these actions are in one go, as if they had been practiced countless times.

Zhong Ye stood next to the carriage with his rifle in hand, kept pulling the trigger, and while he was shooting, he was also pointing out Lillian's shooting points.

——All kinds of martial arts, this is a 'firearm'!

Gunning is a modern martial art. As a Battlemaster who is proficient in all kinds of martial arts, how could Zhong Ye not learn Spear Art?

Not only did he learn Spear Art, the system panel also acknowledged his firearms skills.

Because of their precise archery skills, Zhong Ye and Lillian achieved greater results than the caravan guards and mercenaries in a very short period of time.

The wolves also noticed them, and several wolves turned around one after another. Zhong Ye immediately dropped his spear and drew his sword to meet them.

A few wolves were slaughtered by Zhong Ye before they even lasted half a minute, and then Zhong Ye walked directly towards the wolves.

The bloody rain and bloody wind swept the wolves along with the swinging of the great sword.

In just two or three minutes, the wolves lost more than half.

Wolf King noticed Zhong Ye's ferocity, and even if he was unwilling, he howled loudly to let the wolves withdraw.

As soon as the voice blurted out, a sword light rose from the ground.

Zhong Ye jumped across a distance of more than ten meters, and the moonlight fell on his head, beheading Wolf King's head.

The wolves surrounding the caravan fled in all directions, and the caravan's people were cheering excitedly.

“How far is it from Paris?” Zhong Ye asked after accepting the payment from the caravan.

Those wolf corpses can be sold for a lot of money after cleaning up, far more than what he is getting paid now, so Zhong Ye didn't refuse.

The caravan manager thought about it and said, "There are still about eight days to go!"

"Thank you." After that, Zhong Ye rejected the caravan's invitation. Turn around and leave, and embark on the journey again.

…………

There are still five days away from Paris. On the main road, Lillian can already see sporadic caravans encountering them.

As one of the largest metropolises in the western continent, the prosperity and prosperity of Paris are basically based on frequent business transactions.

So, even in winter, there are quite a few caravans going in and out of Paris - that's a lot of money!

Lilian breathed a sigh of relief and drew pictures on the glass in a bored way. At this moment, she saw a few travelers traveling together through the glass.

Blinking her eyes, Lillian hurriedly wiped off the mist from the glass and looked closer.

Are those people... players?
