Chapter 553: Wolves Attack, Guard

On this night, Qin Wentang didn't really let Jia Yuanchun get up to keep vigil. When Jia Yuanchun went back to sleep, he tidied up the hay spread out to make her sleep more comfortably. Jia Yuanchun was also really tired, and he was sleepy in the second half of the night, so he didn't wake up again. Qin Wentang sat next to the fire for a while, and today he accidentally picked up Jia Yuanchun, which aroused the thoughts of Mei Yanshan in his heart, looking at the jumping flames and smiling for a while, and being stunned for a while, but he didn't feel sleepy.

The jungle here is dense, and the cry of the nightingale is occasionally heard, which makes Qin Wentang very trance-like.

When the sky was exposed to the white belly of the fish, he closed his eyes and slept in a daze, and in his dream he dreamed of Mei Yanshan again, and after struggling to wake up, he went to the stream to wash and tidy up before waking up Jia Yuanchun.

"It's all my fault. Jia Yuanchun opened his eyes and it was already dawn, and he couldn't help but be very annoyed: "I said that I would replace you in the middle of the night, but I fell asleep." Brother Qin, I'm really sorry. โ€

"Nothing. Qin Wentang saw that she was cautious in her speech, and couldn't bear to blame her, and said with a smile: "When I'm walking outside, it's okay to not sleep for a few days." Feel better when you wake up, we still have a long way to go today, if you can't hold on, you can tell me earlier, let's rest. โ€

"You said last night that there were wolves in this mountain?" Jia Yuanchun asked with some disbelief as he rode side by side on horseback.

Qin Wentang said with a smile: "Don't say it's a wolf, I'm afraid there are big tigers." You can't get too far away from me. As he spoke, he pulled out a dagger from his boots: "You carry this thing for self-defense." โ€

"Thank you. Jia Yuanchun solemnly tied the dagger to his arm, and his heart was full of gratitude to him.

The two of them set off from the dawn, Qin Wentang was not wrong, this jungle does not know how deep, it has been walking for a long time, the road under their feet has become unrecognizable, and the woods are getting thicker and thicker, looking up, the sunlight is spilling through the gaps in the leaves, it is actually a little beautiful, but it is getting more and more humid. Qin Wentang began to get nervous, and always held Jia Yuanchun's horse reins in his hand, for fear that something would disturb the horse, and Jia Yuanchun couldn't control the horse and had an accident.

It was only at noon that the two of them finally saw the changes in the plants around them.

The further northwest you go, the lower the height of the trees and the different shapes they become.

"We've just crossed half of a mountain, and now we're in the shade, to the west. If you look closely, the trees on the sunny side are taller, and the trees on the west side are mostly low. Qin Wentang saw Jia Yuanchun looking at it with interest, so he reminded with a smile: "There are mushrooms growing under many trees in the west, but not all mushrooms can be eaten. The first rule of the jungle, mushrooms with beautiful colors are absolutely not to be eaten. โ€

"This kind of this?" Jia Yuanchun asked, pointing to a few colorful mushrooms not far away.

Qin Wentang nodded: "Yes, this kind of is poisonous." โ€

"Then I see. Jia Yuanchun's eyes narrowed: "If you want to eat, you have to look for those we have eaten on weekdays, and those you don't know must not eat." โ€

"The child can be taught. Qin Wentang snapped his fingers: "Of course, what you know is not 100% safe." There are many varieties of mushrooms, and some of them are difficult to distinguish between poisonous and non-poisonous just by their appearance, and they cannot be eaten. โ€

"What is the second rule of the jungle?" Jia Yuanchun took his words to heart.

Qin Wentang said with a smile: "The second rule of the jungle, pay attention to your step. โ€

"Feet?" Jia Yuanchun looked down in disbelief.

Before the words fell, they were drowned out by screams: "Ah-"

I saw that the two of them unconsciously seemed to have walked into a snake nest, and at the feet of the two of them, there were several colorful snakes. Jia Yuanchun naturally didn't recognize any of them, but she was naturally afraid of snakes, and she couldn't control her shouting. Qin Wentang had already prepared, leaned over slightly to cover her mouth, and made a silent movement. When Jia Yuanchun calmed down a bit, he smiled and said: "Snakes of this size generally don't take the initiative to attack people, but if you keep being so scared, they will mistake this signal for a provocation, the snake's movements are very fast, when they attack, even a person like me who knows martial arts may not be able to dodge, you fall in its mouth. Well, this green is bamboo leaf green, which is highly poisonous, and the black and white one over there is a rattlesnake, which is also highly poisonous. The one next to it that looks the largest doesn't have to worry, it's a cauliflower snake, it's not poisonous, and it doesn't matter if you bite it. โ€

"How do you know so much?" Jia Yuanchun couldn't help but admire when he saw him pointing at these snakes at his fingertips.

Qin Wentang said with a smile: "I have eaten more than you for so many years, but I didn't eat it for nothing. โ€

Jia Yuanchun turned his head, the snakes behind him were coiled and did not move, and the number above his head was also a little hanging, the two of them were careful not to touch the branches, and cautiously crossed the road. She had goosebumps on her back, and when she crossed the road, she was drenched in cold sweat.

Qin Wentang also knew that she was suffering from a big lady, and after she was safe, she took out a bag of plums from her arms: "Eat something sweet, sweets can relieve palpitations after being frightened, and you will be more comfortable." โ€

He's so caring!

Jia Yuanchun held the warm plum, and he couldn't remember when he bought it in his mind. I just remember that when he was in Puxin, he went to prepare food, and the two of them were obviously all the way!

But what kind of person would take a girl's careful thoughts to heart?

Jia Yuanchun looked at Qin Wentang, and felt more and more that the man in front of him was very careful, and he was a rare and reliable gentleman. Thinking of Mei Yanshan, she couldn't help but sigh: "Yan Shan is really blessed. โ€

"What?" Qin Wentang didn't understand.

Jia Yuanchun said with a smile: "You can treat strangers like me politely and thoughtfully, I'm afraid it's better for Mei Shan on weekdays, right?"

"I don't see her very often. Qin Wentang smiled slightly, his eyes were bitter, but his smile was very sincere and pure. Mei Yanshan and him have already dissolved the marriage contract, for some reason Jia Yuanchun didn't know, he knew that Jia Yuanchun was thinking too much, "In fact, when I left the capital, my marriage contract with Yan Shan had ended. โ€

"Why?" Jia Yuanchun's eyes widened, he was so good, and Yan Shan was also a very good girl, how could this be?

Qin Wentang shook his head: "Maybe fate is not yet." She deserves better. โ€

"You're fine too. Jia Yuanchun saw that he was a little depressed, and his heart was very strange, and he couldn't help but persuade: "Brother Qin, can I ask more about why? Is it because Mei Xiang doesn't allow it, or is it because of something else? I don't think Brother Qin is like a person who will give up from the beginning to the end, I know Yan Shan even better, she is kind-hearted, knife-mouthed tofu-hearted, what she thinks is what she is, and she will definitely not agree and regret it." Is there a misunderstanding between you?"

"Nope. Qin Wentang said: "I am not suitable for Yan Shan, and we are destined to not get together." โ€

Jia Yuanchun stopped talking.

She's not stupid, if it's really not suitable, how did she get engaged in the first place?

She had seen Qin Wentang accompany Mei Yanshan for a walk in the imperial garden, and she was also gentle and considerate to Mei Yanshan, and Mei Yanshan fought with herself because of her few words of grabbing white, and defended her in every way. She couldn't help but be silent, she left the capital on the day of Fu Rongyue's wedding, and she had been at home and didn't go out before leaving, so she didn't know such a big thing!

Qin Wentang didn't want to continue this topic, thinking of Mei Yanshan, his heart ached even more, and he pointed to a big tree next to him and said, "You sit here for a while, let's eat something and then set off." โ€

"It's still early!" Jia Yuanchun looked at the sky, she could still support it for a little longer.

Qin Wentang said resolutely: "The next section of the road is not easy to walk, you have to cultivate enough spirits." Look over there," he said, pointing to another mountain not far away, "we didn't take the official road, and we could save almost three days by taking this mountain road." The descent will be quick, but soon you will start to climb that mountain, and that is hard work. โ€

Jia Yuanchun couldn't resist him, so he had to get off the horse and rest.

After riding the horse for several days, her legs were already so painful that she could barely stand on the ground. It's just that after sitting down, the farts and thighs also cracked in general pain, and I couldn't sit down, so I rested awkwardly against a big rock.

Qin Wentang glanced at her several times, knowing that he didn't break it, and after lighting the fire, he carried a dagger into the mountains to hunt, and told Jia Yuanchun to wait here.

Jia Yuanchun didn't dare to walk around, so he waited by the big rock. Seeing Qin Wentang go away, her figure in the day was clearer than last night, and her expression couldn't help but become in a trance again.

Did you really break off the marriage contract with Mei Yanshan?

They are all very good people, and she feels sorry that they can't get together!

She was alone in a daze, completely forgetting Qin Wentang's instructions, leaning on the big stone and not moving, there were still a few steps away from the fire. She was thinking about her thoughts, and didn't notice that not long after Qin Wentang left, there was a faint movement in the woods behind her, and in the dark forest, several pairs of green eyes loomed, twisting their steps and approaching her cautiously......

Qin Wentang moves quickly, he is a veteran of hunting, he is familiar with catching a pheasant and rabbit, and he will soon gain a lot.

Seeing Jia Yuanchun's amount of food last night, after he caught a pheasant, he deliberately shot an extra rabbit, and then he turned around satisfied. Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked out of the woods, his gaze changed suddenly, and he couldn't even care about the game, so he hurriedly threw it aside and pulled out the dagger.

Jia Yuanchun was overjoyed to see him come back, and hurriedly stood up straight and prepared to walk towards him, but as soon as he moved, he saw Qin Wentang staring at her back with a very nervous face, holding a dagger and gesturing to her, signaling her to go slowly.

She didn't know what was going on, but looking at Qin Wentang's face, she also knew that there was an unknown danger behind her.

Qin Wentang's face was full of seriousness, Jia Yuanchun couldn't see the scene behind him, and suddenly his hairs stood up, and the cold sweat in his palms immediately surged up. She walked a few steps as she was told, but her strong curiosity could not be suppressed, and finally slowly turned around......
