Chapter 382: Encounter with the Tiger
"You go and gather with the others first, and I'll greet the other nobles here. ”
"Good. Shen Lanying nodded, but suddenly found that the brown-red horse next to her was also very familiar.
Fengshuang found that Shen Lanying's gaze stayed on the brown horse, and a smile couldn't help but appear in her eyes, "What, is it familiar?"
"Uh-huh. Shen Lanying nodded vigorously. She suddenly felt that this horse was particularly like Sikong Yan's mount, but she was not sure, afraid that she would be amorous.
Feng Shuang stretched out her hand and brushed the mane of the brown and red horse, and said with a smile, "Childe is definitely coming, he asked me to prepare the horse in advance." ”
“!!!”
Careerists are coming?!
He won't accompany Jiang Yuwan anymore?
Knowing the news, Shen Lanying had no intention of playing anymore, and after the hunting activity officially began, Shen Lanying looked into the distance from time to time, hoping to see the figure of the careerist.
The hunt is based on a random lot, and the participants are divided into many teams, and in each team of five people, there will be one or two foreigners, so that everyone can exchange feelings.
In addition to her, Shen Lanying's group also has the Eighth Princess, Yu Chigu, and two generals.
After the two generals and Shen Lanying asked for instructions, they left the team directly to play by themselves.
Shen Lanying was also planning to leave the team, but was stopped by Jiang Lingqin, "Wan'er, Mr. Fei Jie didn't come." ”
Shen Lanying shook her head.
Jiang Lingqin said happily, "Then you can go with us!"
Shen Lanying originally wanted to discuss some national affairs with Wang Yichen, but it turned out to be eating dog food with the little couple.
Wei Chigu's archery technique was not ordinarily accurate, and after only an hour of turning around the field, he had already caught several small beasts, and there were almost no arrows.
"Ling Qin, you said there are tigers to hunt here?"
"Yes, yes. Jiang Lingqin suddenly realized that the little rabbit and bird could no longer satisfy Wei Chigu's hunting skills. She looked at Shen Lanying uncertainly, "I remember that there are large beasts here, right?"
Shen Lanying yawned and said, "Yes, but not now." The tigers, leopards, and jackals are still in cages, and they won't be released until the afternoon. In the afternoon, our female dependents will be able to withdraw. ”
When Wei Chigu heard the news, he was a little disappointed, but he quickly became energetic again, and swore to Jiang Lingqin that he would definitely be able to hunt tigers in the afternoon.
It's a pity that Jiang Lingqin can't understand the pride and ambition in the chest of the man who grew up on horseback. It's just a worried reminder to Wei Chi Gu not to hurt himself.
So Wei Chigu felt that his ability was underestimated by the female ticket, so the obsession of hunting tigers in his heart deepened.
Yu Chi Gu was making promises with the eighth princess, and suddenly there was a rustling sound in the grass not far away.
Wei Chigu's painting style changed instantly, and he raised his bow and arrow with lightning speed, pointing in the direction of the east, and the movement was so fast that people couldn't see it clearly.
Wei Chigu's attention was on the sound, and Jiang Lingqin's attention was on Wei Chigu, neither of them realized that when the sound appeared, Shen Lanying's reaction speed was no slower than that of Wei Chigu, but her reaction was not to take a weapon, but to tighten the reins of the horse, ready to run away at any time.
The person who caused the sound showed his face, it was a little yellow-eared elk, Wei Chigu laughed, and asked the two to wait for him in the same place, and he himself took a bow and arrow to chase the elk.
So the two of them walked along the river, which was not a safe place if they were in the forest, because the beasts that settled around it would come to drink. But now there's no need to worry, even if an animal comes, it's a harmless cute rabbit or something.
Jiang Lingqin looked at Shen Lanying's little white horse curiously, "Wan'er, your horse looks so small, is it an adult horse?"
"No, she's still a child. When I was out there last year, Fijel bought me a foal and raised it ever since. ”
"Did you bring it all the way to the capital from the south? She's so cute, can I touch her?"
The panda looked at Jiang Yuxuan sideways, and before Shen Lanying could give an order, he stepped forward and rubbed Jiang Lingqin's hand very doggedly.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound on the grass behind the two, different from the last rustling sound, this time the sound was far away and much lower, like the long howl of some kind of fierce beast.
Shen Lanying pulled the reins vigilantly, and the panda quickly turned around, facing the direction of the sound.
The eighth princess's reaction speed was much slower than Shen Lanying's, and when she turned around with her trembling horse, she only saw a colorful tiger with a bright coat appear on the desert field.
"Wan'er, you, didn't you say that there are no beasts here?" Jiang Lingqin's voice trembled a little.
Shen Lanying also frowned, this paddock was managed by Fengshuang, and it was impossible for him to be derelict in his duty and not close the beast cage. Besides, the direction in which the tiger appeared was a plain, and there was no shelter on it, so it wasn't that she and Wei Chigu didn't find the tiger, right?
"Don't be afraid, this is a captive-bred tiger, and its attack power is not very strong. Although Shen Lanying comforted Jiang Lingqin like this, she was actually not sure how aggressive this tiger was, and besides, she had an ominous premonition in her heart.
"Don't rush to run yet. Shen Lanying said, unloading the pistol from her lower arm, loading it, and handing it to her right hand.
As he spoke, the tiger had already run in the direction of the two of them, sensing the breath of carnivores, Jiang Lingqin's horses were very unstable and hurriedly retreated, but because there was no order from the rider, they did not dare to spread their hooves and run. Jiang Lingqin's hands were also shaking, and he shouted in a trembling voice, "Wan'er, let's go quickly!"
At this time, the tiger was less than fifty meters away from the two of them, and was speeding towards the two, Shen Lanying's pupils suddenly contracted, and she found that the tiger's abdomen was deflated.
Hungry Tiger ......
"Pheasant hand it over to me! Quick!" Shen Lanying aimed her right hand at the tiger's head, ready to deal with unexpected situations at any time.
Now on Jiang Lingqin's horse, there are two trophies of Wei Chi Gu, and the smell of blood can be smelled from ten meters away, let alone for a tiger with a keen sense of smell, the worst thing is that the wind direction just blows the smell of blood into the tiger's nose.
Jiang Lingqin panicked to untie the rope that tied the wild pheasant, but she was so scared that her fingers didn't obey the call, and she didn't untie it for a long time. Shen Lanying was so anxious that she temporarily put away the gun, took out a knife to cut the rope, and then used all her strength to throw the two wild pheasants out.
When the pheasant flew towards the tiger, the tiger was only about ten meters away from the two of them.
The tiger jumped up and bit the pheasant in the air, even omitting the step of plucking, and swallowed the pheasant whole into its stomach.
Shen Lanying's pupils contracted again, and she decisively shouted "Run" to Jiang Lingqin.
