Chapter 52: : Horse King

The wolves gradually expanded from three or two to seven or eight, and gradually expanded to a dozen or dozens. Chen Chao carefully counted them, and there were a total of 86, much more than the group of black wolves that attacked the Tianyuan tribe before.
A trace of doubt arose in his heart, knowing that the wolves have an extremely strict hierarchy. The number of wolves in a pack is normally around 7, the so-called seven wolves, and some wolves have reached 30 or more.
Usually family wolves are led by a dominant pair, while siblings are led by the strongest wolf. And the number of wolves encountered in these two times were all over 60. Could it be that the natural enemies of wolves have not recovered?
It's just that he doesn't allow him to think too much about it now, once the wolves start to attack the horses, he will take the opportunity to run to the horse king.
Although wild horses are very powerful, they are now facing a large pack of wolves, and there are only 17 wild horses, including three cubs.
As the wolves gradually grew, the wild horses began to scream uncomfortably, and the ponies were afraid to lean against the mares.
The wild horses consciously began to move inward, the three ponies were surrounded at the innermost side, and Chen Chao, a weak two-legged beast, was consciously protected by the wild horses at the innermost side.
If this two-legged beast hangs up and wants to lick salt in the future, he will have to go to a far place. It would be weary to run back and forth in a day...
The wolves gradually gathered around, engulfing some other medium-sized animals on the pasture, such as alpacas and sheep...
"Hi..." A horse outside was bitten by a wolf and retreated with a miserable cry, and all the horses began to move. At this time, a high-pitched horse hissed, which gradually calmed down the agitated horses. The brown-red horse king with its bridle rushed toward the wolves like lightning, raised two huge hooves and stomped on the murderer's body, and other stallions also attacked the wolves when they saw the situation.
The wolves obviously underestimated the enemy, seeing the three wolves turning into mud under their iron hooves. However, the entire wolves did not start to panic, and they continued to be surrounded in an orderly manner, taking a bite of the prey in the enclosure from time to time.
Only deliberately avoided the horse king, except for some old, weak, sick and disabled prey, the wolves did not provoke those who seemed to be young, strong and powerful.
The prey in the enclosure began to move under the bite and threat of the wolves, and the gaps in the three wolves that were killed before were not filled, which seemed to let the animals see life.
The wild horses stepped on their hooves restlessly, and one after another howling wolves sounded at the outermost periphery of the enclosure. The entire wild horses, under the encirclement of the animals in the enclosure, began to break through the gap.
Chen Chao also found an opportunity to run to Ma Wang's side. At first he tried to run with the horses, but soon he discovered that according to the physical strength of a person, he wanted to keep up with a group of galloping wild horses, that was simply fantastic!
He tried to jump on the horse several times [biqugexx.xyz] and failed, but without the help of the focus point of the stirrup, and the horse is moving, this is almost impossible.
At this moment, a giant wolf rushed over and bit a mare behind the horse king. The horse king was furious when he saw the wailing of his companions. He turned around and lifted his front hoof and stomped it hard.
As soon as the culprit was solved, the five giant wolves next to him took advantage of the horse king's most vulnerable abdomen and began to bite. The marching rhythm of the wild horses was temporarily disrupted.
It's just that beside the horse king, except for a mare that fell to the ground injured, there is only one Chen Chao carrying a rattan basket.
Chen Chao glanced at the surrounding situation. The other horses in the wild horse herd stood on the periphery of the five giant wolves, forming a larger circle of the five giant wolves. And he and the horse king are surrounded by the innermost.
As if waiting for the horse king's order, he raised his iron hoof and trampled to death the giant wolves.
Chen Chao also backhanded the stone axe fixed on his waist and pulled it out directly.
King Ma saw that he raised the stone axe, and let out a long "hiss", as he looked at each other, he seemed to understand what the other party was going to do.
An axe slashed at a giant wolf with its mouth wide open. Chen Chao and the horse king became horns. After the third wolf was eliminated, the remaining two wolves also turned into flesh under the iron hooves of the outlying wild horses. mud.
He raised his hand and wiped the blood stains on his face. Today's moonlight is extraordinarily bright, like white days. When Chen Chao was about to raise his foot and follow the wild horses, he saw Ma Wang leaning down slightly.
He looked at Mawang's shiny eyes, a little lost. I just feel that the eyes are full of humane charm, as if saying, "Two-legged beast, you see you run so slowly, what should you do when you fall behind and be eaten by a giant wolf?" This horse king just saw you helped me a while ago, so I can barely take you for a ride.
Ma Wang made a long hiss again and arched Chen Chao with his huge horse head. Only then did he realize that he hadn't climbed on the horseback after working hard so many times before, and that was it?
Chen Chao was not hypocritical, and now is not the time for hypocrisy. Although 8 giant wolves have been killed by horseshoes and stone axes, there are still more than seventy giant wolves behind, and there is no chance for hypocrisy. So he checked the timing and jumped on horseback.
Chen Chao, who jumped on the horse’s back, had no time to grasp the straw rope (the rein part) on the bridle of the horse, and was slammed by the horse king, so scared that he bent down and hugged the horse king’s neck, even though he knew that the horse king was not On purpose, this was just a sign that he started to run, but Chen Chao almost flew out.
The legs clamped the horse's belly tightly, so that he didn't fall off the horse directly. Fortunately, the rattan cushions tied to the horse king’s back played a big role, acting as a buffer between Chen Chao and the horse’s back, and greatly reducing the leg pain when Chen Chao was sitting on the horse’s back. feel.
But it's still very painful!
At this time, Chen Chao missed his trousers and all kinds of trousers...
This bitter the little stone in his arms, but he also understands that the situation is very critical at the moment, and he huddled tightly in Chen Chao's arms and dared not make any noise.
However, it is precisely because of this posture that Chen Chao can hold the axe in a low position to make up for the giant wolf who approaches from time to time. Let Ma Wang have no worries for the time being.
The running horse king is also very satisfied with his newly acquired two-legged boy, although it looks weak, it is still very strong!
Chen Chao, who is still holding the horse’s neck, is temporarily afraid to control the horse king by relying on the bridle, and the wolves are still chasing after him. This also makes the horse king temporarily unable to take care of the two who are still holding on his back. Foot beast.
It's not that Chen Chao had never thought of standing up and swinging a stone axe, but that he was basically unwilling to do it when he was not equipped with stirrups. Without the help of stirrups, people can sit firmly on the horse's back, relying on both feet to clamp the horse's belly.
So it's basically impossible to stand up, even if you barely stand up, you can't swing a stone ax at all.
The driving time of the wolves is regular, sometimes slow and sometimes fast, giving some hope from time to time, so that the prey will feel a ray of life. Sometimes they chased them so hard that the prey never had a chance to stop and catch their breath!
The purpose is already obvious. This is also a tactic used by wolves. Don't they know that a wild horse group with a horse king is powerful? Under normal circumstances, with the horse king's wild horses, wolves will not easily provoke them.
But now you can walk them for a run, and the number of people on your side surpasses the other, why not walk them tired and have a full meal?
You must know that before the horses are nailed to the horseshoe, the horse cannot always maintain a long-distance running posture. Always maintain a high-strength friction on the ground and stones, which will cause great damage to the horseshoe.
The wolves obviously understand this very well, and what is really scary is not that they will die immediately, but that they have been waiting for death in fear and exhaustion.
Relying on the false ray of life to continuously consume the physical strength of this group of prey, then it will be able to get all of it in the bag without any effort, and it will be possible to have a beautiful meal.
The sky is shining and the sun is slowly rising. The wild horses that have been running all night are tired and thirsty. Their nostrils are widened, and their noses emit a strong smell of grassy heat. The injured horses can no longer hold back and fall to the ground, and they are screaming. Wailing.
