A vast wasteland appeared in front of Zhang Yuan. He took out the map from his arms and looked at it again, comparing it with the position of the sun in the sky to make sure that the path he was taking was correct. As long as he crossed this wasteland, he would be able to reach Xiaxu. This was the last section of the journey. Gently patting the neck of the horse under his crotch, Zhang Yuan squeezed the horse's belly with his legs: "Go!" The black horse immediately spread its four hooves and galloped forward. Although there was no ready-made road in the wasteland, the terrain was quite flat, so the speed of moving forward was not slow at all. All Zhang Yuan had to do was to control the direction. The strong wind mixed with the smell of soil and grass blew on his face, making him feel very happy. It was like a fish entering the sea and an eagle flying in the sky.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Near noon, the sky was overcast, and then it started to rain. The wilderness was empty and there was no place to hide. Zhang Yuan could only set up a tent on the spot for himself and the horse to shelter from the rain. The black horse he was riding was his fourth mount. Because they had left the dangerous area and didn't need to run for their lives, they couldn't waste horsepower like before. And in the vast wilderness, Zhang Yuan couldn't find a place to sell horses. Naturally, he had to cherish it. The rain came quickly and went away quickly. In less than half an hour, the sky was clear again. It changed like a child's face. Zhang Yuan packed up the tent, rode on the horse and continued to move forward. However, the grass became slippery after the rain, so he had to slow down to prevent the mount from falling and getting injured. It was a long journey without a horse, which was bound to be a lot harder. In this way, they walked another twenty miles. Zhang Yuan's expression suddenly moved. Although he had been riding a horse, most of his mind was on the red-eyed crow in the sky. As a result, Zhang Yuan just discovered that there was a caravan more than ten miles away from him. And this caravan was surrounded by a large number of wild wolves.
The two sides formed a confrontation. According to the observation of the red-eyed crow, the number of wolves was as high as two or three hundred, and the momentum was quite terrifying. The caravan they surrounded had more than a dozen carriages and trucks. There were twenty or thirty members of the caravan that could be seen, and as for whether there were any hiding in the carriages, that was unknown. Zhang Yuan thought about it and decided to go over and take a look. This wasteland was uninhabited, and it was a coincidence to encounter a caravan. And the other party was most likely to have the same destination as him. Or they came from Xiaxu. Zhang Yuan had just arrived and was unfamiliar with the place. He could be said to have no idea about the situation in Xiaxu. It was just that Liu Qiniang recommended Zhang Yuan to come here, and out of trust in this sister, he was so determined. Now that there was a chance to understand the situation, he had to give it a try. As for the group of wild wolves, Zhang Yuan was not afraid at all - he had killed fourth-level strongmen! While approaching the caravan, he kept observing from the air. The wild wolves were very smart. They actually set up a formation of three-sided and one-sided for the caravan, and kept a safe distance. As for the caravan, they used carriages and trucks to form a simple defense circle. Everyone hid inside with swords and crossbows, nervously watching the wolf pack not far away. There were still many arrows stuck on the ground between the two sides. It was obvious that the wolf pack had launched a tentative attack. Such a situation was obviously not favorable for the caravan. Because the wolf pack was obviously waiting for the arrival of night. Under the cover of night, their attacks would become more difficult to defend. The caravan was obviously aware of this. Several people had a dispute. However, because the distance was too far, the red-eyed crow could not hear what they were arguing about. But it didn't matter. Zhang Yuan gradually approached the beasts from behind the wolf pack. When the distance was shortened to four or five hundred steps, he took off the quiver hanging on his back. He took out the iron-framed bow from it and assembled it.
In just a moment, a feather arrow was firmly placed on the bowstring. Zhang Yuan slowed down his mount and raised his iron bow to aim at the wolf pack ahead. There were too many targets to hunt. Whoosh! The next moment, the feather arrow flew out of the bowstring, passing hundreds of steps like lightning and shooting into the wolf pack. Awooo! With a shrill scream, a strong wild wolf was nailed to the ground alive. In severe pain, feces and urine flowed down! This sudden tragedy made the whole wolf pack explode. Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Arrows flew one after another, shooting one wild wolf after another on the spot. Not a single arrow missed! Awooo~ At this moment, an especially tall wild wolf in the wolf pack raised its head and howled. A pair of wolf eyes full of resentment stared at Zhang Yuan. It, the wolf king, was the first to discover the sneak attacker. An order was issued immediately! Dozens of wild wolves immediately turned around and rushed towards Zhang Yuan, howling. This sudden change surprised and delighted the caravan. They also found Zhang Yuan. They couldn't help but feel worried. How could Zhang Yuan, a man on a horse, be a match for dozens of wild wolves? You have to know that these wild wolves are ferocious and cunning, with sharp claws and fangs, and are very difficult to deal with. An ordinary adult is no match for a wild wolf, only a warrior can defeat it. But the wolves rarely go alone, usually they go out in groups. The number of this group of wolves is even more astonishing! However, the scene that appeared next made everyone dumbfounded. Zhang Yuan calmly pulled the bowstring and shot feather arrows continuously.
The wolves that charged at him were hit by arrows one after another and fell to the ground. For a while, the dying howls came one after another. The bright red blood sprayed all the way! In just a dozen breaths, ten wolves had died under the arrows. The scary thing is that Zhang Yuan still maintained a high-speed shooting frequency. He was like a ruthless killing machine, shooting deadly arrows expressionlessly. Harvesting more lives of wolves! The tragic casualties, coupled with the screams of their companions, made the remaining wolves instinctively fearful. They couldn't help but slow down, and even tucked their tails. They hesitated and hesitated. In fact, these wolves were very close to Zhang Yuan. Awooo! Seeing this, the wolf king in the wolf pack was furious and howled immediately. A dozen cowardly wolves suddenly rushed towards Zhang Yuan as if they had been injected with chicken blood. The wolf king turned around again, stared at the caravan in front and howled again. Dozens of wolves were ready to go, howling and rushing over! A fierce battle broke out. At this time, Zhang Yuan jumped up from the horse's back and landed on the ground holding the iron bow. A wolves in the front rushed over immediately, opened its bloody mouth, revealing two rows of white teeth. Biting Zhang Yuan's throat viciously!
