Although seven wolves were wiped out in a fight, Tie Mo's side was not feeling well either.
In addition to those who died, three military households were injured and were unable to travel for the time being.
In desperation, Tie Mo ordered a few days of rest.
What made Tie Mo a little strange was that the Chang family's camel team did not continue on their way, but stayed to rest together.
Because they had robbed half of the Chang family's goods, the relationship between the military household and the Chang family's camel team was very bad. The two parties were very different from each other. They stayed in their own places and usually did not even say a word.
Chang Minyue often sees Tie Mo these days, and gradually the relationship between the two has eased.
The fire in the basin became more and more prosperous, driving away the chill all over the body.
Chang Minyue held a wooden stick and held the charcoal fire in the basin.
"Why did you stop? There is always a rule when walking in the desert. If someone is seriously injured on the road and cannot walk, leave enough water and food. Life or death depends on God's will."
"In this dangerous place, every extra day of delay will increase the risk. But you have to stay for several days. Even if they can hurry up, it will eventually slow down the entire camel team."
Tie Mo held the wine bag and looked a little gloomy, "I'm different from you. Your Chang family is rich and powerful, and there's never a shortage of people to serve. I can't do it. I have too little to give them. If I don't even have friendship,
Throw it away, how many people do you think are still willing to sacrifice their lives for me?"
What Tie Mo said can be regarded as the truth, winning people's hearts and making others loyal, either by giving money or beautiful women.
In short, you have to give others what they want in order to make them loyal and dedicated.
But he has too little capital and a shallow foundation to give him money, beauty, and power. The only thing he has is a heart full of friendship.
The Chang family can talk about interests, but he can only talk about loyalty.
Chang Minyue pursed her lips and smiled, and said softly: "You are really quite honest. Don't many people say that you are an honest person?"
"Ha, Tie Mo has always been famous for being honest and honest!" Tie Mo raised his neck and took a sip of wine, but the firelight failed to illuminate his face.
Chang Minyue secretly said it was shameless, but she had to admire Tie Mo's face.
However, this guy's Zhang Tian is really very deceptive.
The two of them were chatting, but an uninvited guest suddenly broke in, pointed at Tie Mo's nose and yelled curses.
"Xiaotie, you are so unethical in what you do. You are such a bastard. Since you promised me the wine, why did you secretly hide the wine?"
Looking at the sudden arrival of the burrowing rat, Tie Mo looked confused.
"What did you say? Didn't I give you the wine?"
"I sent it, but I just went out to water the ground for a while, and the wine disappeared."
"The wine is gone, why did you come to me?"
"In this place, except you, who dares to take my wine?" The gopher picked up the small bench on the ground and tried his best to say, "Give the wine back to me, otherwise, believe it or not, I will beat you into Fan Laowai."
"
Tie Mo frowned, this was too strange.
Ever since the Drill Mouse dragged Hei Du's head back with a long knife, no one dared to mess with him anymore. The Drill Mouse was addicted to alcohol, and when he saw alcohol, he became closer than his own father. No one in the military household dared to do so.
Take his wine and drink.
Now that the wine is gone, the first suspect must be Tie Mo, because only Tie Mo dares to bring trouble to the gopher.
He stood up, hid behind, and threw the wine bag in his hand to the gopher.
"Smell it, this is not old wine. Since I gave the wine to you, can I get it back?"
"It's really not you?"
"Are you sick? Do you think I am as addicted to alcohol as you are?"
The gopher frowned, and naturally stuffed the wine bag into his arms, and then threw away the small bench, "That's weird, if it wasn't you, could anyone else have eaten the leopard's guts?"
"Otherwise, you can look elsewhere..."
Before he finished speaking, there were hurried footsteps outside, and people started shouting before they arrived.
"Brother Tie, come out and take a look!"
Just as the gopher wanted to go out, he bumped into Han Niu'er who rushed in.
Han Niuer pulled the gopher away and said breathlessly: "Brother Tie, there is a big wolf in our camp."
...
In the corner of the camp, there were several boxes of goods stacked. At this time, a wolf was lying next to the boxes, drinking something.
Several military households and Chang family servants watched from a distance, but they didn't dare to rush up and drive the wolf away.
This wolf is really huge, more than two meters long, and extremely strong, like a calf.
Tie Mo, Chang Minyue and others hurried over, but before they even got close, they smelled a strong aroma of wine.
The gopher immediately quickened his pace and his eyes turned red, "Mom, my old wine, who made it so old for me!"
After rushing into the crowd and seeing the situation clearly, the burrowing rat shrank back and said, "What kind of beast is this? Why is it so big?"
The gopher was both angry and distressed. His precious old wine was actually drunk by the wolf. Looking at the beast's unfinished business, he was obviously not satisfied yet.
I’ve never heard of a wolf that drinks like a calf!
"Come together, kill this beast, my wine, the beast that suffered a thousand cuts!"
The gopher was heartbroken and shouted loudly, but after greeting him for a long time, no one came forward.
Tie Mo swallowed his saliva and observed the calf wolf with some curiosity. After looking at it for a while, he felt that it was somewhat familiar.
Isn't this the wolf king I met in the desert? It was dark before and I couldn't see clearly, but now I realize how big this beast is.
The Wolf King snorted, maybe because he drank old wine, and his eyes were a little wandering.
Facing the crowd, the Wolf King showed no fear at all. Instead, he raised his head and licked his tongue.
A pair of wolf eyes swept around, and finally landed on the gopher.
The gopher was startled, and his face became distorted, "You beast, you stole my wine and you still want to hurt me? Come on, do you really think I am afraid of you?"
To be honest, the gopher is really a little guilty. Anyone who encounters a wolf the size of a calf will murmur.
Tie Mo touched the wash bar and thought about it for a while, then walked up to the gopher and took it into his arms without saying a word.
All of the gopher's attention was on the Wolf King, and when he wasn't paying attention, the wine bag in his arms was snatched away by Tie Mo.
Holding the wine bag and taking two steps forward, Tie Mo waved his hand at the Wolf King, "Do you want to drink?"
"Ai...wu..." The wolf king's eyes were shining brightly, and he let out a meek cry.
Tie Mo's whole body was numb, and the cry sounded like a two-legged dog acting coquettishly.
Erha, is that you? Are you over-developed and pretending to be the wolf king?
"If you want to drink, just follow me!" Tie Mo shook the wine bag and made a gesture.
Strangely enough, the Wolf King seemed to understand. He got up from the ground and walked to Tie Mo's side with drunken steps. The wolf's head shook and he rubbed Tie Mo's waist very intimately.
Tie Mo stood up with his arms dumbfounded, wondering whether he should stroke the soft wolf fur.
This is definitely not the Wolf King!
Under everyone's incredulous eyes, the Wolf King slowly followed Tie Mo into the yurt.
At this point, Tie Mo finally figured out one thing.
No wonder the Wolf King suddenly ordered the wolves to be driven away. These guys were not hunting at all, but were here to steal wine.
...
After resting in the camp for six full days, the two camel teams merged into one and embarked on the road north again.
The difference is that there is a nondescript Wolf King in the team.
