The next day, the mansion of the eldest princess of Dezhao.

"You're missing again." On the martial arts field, the fifth princess turned her head sideways and looked at Cheng Wei in confusion.

Cheng Wei smiled apologetically: "I didn't hold it firm just now, I'll come again." ”

The fifth princess suddenly stretched out her hand and pressed her bow: "I'm not coming." ”

Cheng Wei retracted the horn bow in a daze.

"Let's ride horses to the mountains." The fifth princess suddenly turned around.

"Huh?"

The fifth princess approached Cheng Wei, and suddenly raised her hand and pulled her cheek: "You haven't laughed for a few days, and you're in a good mood when you go out for a run." ”

Cheng lowered his eyes slightly, his eyelashes fanned a few times, and nodded: "Okay." ”

Because of the horseback archery, the two of them were neatly dressed, so naturally they didn't need to change their clothes, and they brought some necessary things into the mountain.

When they entered the mountain, the two of them rode their horses and galloped. Their mounts were all good horses, and they quickly threw out the maid guards who followed them.

The scenery on both sides quickly receded, and the sound of the whirring wind was in his ears, and when the big black horse slowly stopped, Cheng Wei's back was already soaked with sweat, and he felt extremely happy and bright.

Xu knew that the master wanted to vent, and the big black horse ran very fast, surpassing the five princesses' jujube red horse by a large margin.

After a while, the jujube red horse caught up with the five princesses.

The fifth princess pulled the reins and stopped beside Cheng Wei.

She didn't rush to speak, but squinted her eyes and faced the wind, and only when she felt happy did she turn her head sideways and ask Cheng Wei: "Are you comfortable?" ”

Cheng Wei hesitated for a moment and nodded: "It's much better." ”

The fifth princess smiled and rode on her horse to look into the distance. "When I'm unhappy, I'll ride into the mountains and run like this, and then I'll not be sad." ”

Cheng Wei looked into the distance with the five princesses.

She had to admit that there was some truth in the words of the fifth princess. When the venting is over, in the face of the turbulent conditions of nature, those personal troubles are not so important.

At least, for now, not so much.

"That's it." The silent fifth princess put her hands to her lips, took a deep breath, and let out a shout of "ah".

The echo faded away. She turned her head sideways and shouted to Cheng Wei: "You try it too." ”

Cheng Wei shouted loudly like the fifth princess, and the big black horse spewed a few white gases in disgust, causing the two to laugh together.

"Listen. It's all an echo. The fifth princess closed her eyes, and suddenly opened them again, "No, I seem to hear a child's cry." ”

Cheng Wei listened to the direction of the wind. Sure enough, there was a crisp children's voice.

The two looked at each other. Tacitly looking in the direction where the cry came from.

When they found that place, the two were dumbfounded.

An old tree stretched out from the cliff, and a toddler of five or six years old was lying on it, clutching to the trunk and weeping.

"Save me, sister save me-" As soon as he saw Cheng Wei and the others coming, the young boy screamed, looking at him like that, it was obvious that he couldn't hold on for long.

Cheng Wei's face turned white. Asked the fifth princess: "Isn't this a royal hunting ground, how can there be such a young child?" ”

The fifth princess said as she walked towards the edge of the cliff: "Maybe it's the hunters who came to hunt quietly in the nearby Zhuangzi." “

Precisely because this is the royal hunting ground. Ordinary people are forbidden to come in, and there are many prey, which will naturally attract some bold people to come in and poach.

"Little brother, where are your adults?" The fifth princess asked as she approached the toddler.

Cheng Wei was surprised to find that the usually taciturn fifth princess had a very gentle attitude towards children.

The young boy gradually stopped crying under the comfort of the fifth princess, and said intermittently: "Dad took me to catch the golden chicken, Dad flew down from here, I want to find Dad, but I'm so afraid——"

"Sure enough, they came to poach." The fifth princess explained to Cheng Wei in a low voice, "We don't have a golden pheasant here at all, in order to have a good fortune when hunting, we specially got it from the south, and only in this mountain." ”

Cheng Wei listened to the explanation of the fifth princess, and saw that she was getting closer and closer to the cliff, so he hurriedly grabbed her: "Fifth princess, what are you going to do?" ”

The fifth princess stretched out her finger and pointed at the child, and said as a matter of course: "Of course it is to save him." ”

Cheng Wei glanced at the old tree stretching horizontally, suddenly felt frightened, swallowed his saliva and said, "Let's wait for the guards to come over, it's too dangerous." ”

The fifth princess stretched out her finger and pointed at the young child: "Look at that child, he will not be able to catch it soon, and he will not be able to wait for the guards to come over." It doesn't matter, I'll just crawl over carefully and pull him over. ”

Cheng Wei grabbed the sleeve of the fifth princess and didn't let go, obviously afraid of death, but still said with difficulty: "I, I'll go." ”

Meeting the hesitant gaze of the fifth princess, Cheng Wei explained: "I am lighter than you. ”

It is only a very small reason to be lighter than the main body of the five princes, and more importantly, Cheng Wei understands that something is really going to happen to the five princes, and she is afraid that she will be buried with her, so it is better to let her try.

The fifth princess shook her head.

Cheng Wei persuaded again: "Fifth princess, you are plumper than me, what if the old tree can't support you and the young child?" When the time comes, not only will you not be able to save the child, but you will also be in danger, and the gains will outweigh the losses. I used to climb trees when I was a kid, so I don't have a problem, you can just catch the kids later. ”

After persuading the five princesses, Cheng Wei quietly breathed a sigh of relief and raised his feet to leave, but was bitten by the big black horse.

"Alright, Ahei, let me go."

The big black horse shook his head with Cheng Wei's clothes in his mouth.

Cheng Wei stretched out his hand and patted the head of the big black horse: "Don't be willful, I'll save people." ”

The big black horse rubbed the back of Cheng Wei's hand with his head.

Cheng Wei was inexplicably sad for a while, lowered his head and rubbed the big black horse with his cheek, and then pulled out the hem of his clothes and walked towards the cliff step by step.

The young child no longer had the strength to cry, and looked at Cheng Wei with wide eyes without blinking.

Cheng Wei hugged the old tree and approached him cautiously.

There was a click, and the sound of the branch breaking, and the young child's body fell.

Cheng was slightly startled, subconsciously rushed forward, and reached out to grab the young child's fingertips.

"Little brother, you hold my hand and crawl over slowly." She clung to the old tree with one hand and tried to reach the young children with the other.

"I can't catch it, sister, I'm going to run out of strength......"

The toddler was only five or six years old, with a frightened face, looking at Cheng Wei as if he were looking at the only beam of light in the dark world.

Cheng Wei took a deep breath, moved forward again, and finally held the young child's hand tightly.

She couldn't help but smile, and carefully pulled the toddler in her direction.

At this time, the clicking sound came again, and when Cheng Wei reacted, she could only watch the old tree stop her waist and fall to the bottom of the cliff, and what she could do subconsciously was to throw it up and throw the young child to the fifth princess.

The cries of the young children, the exclamations of the five princesses, and the long neighing of the big black horse all disappeared from his ears, and Cheng Wei didn't have time to think about anything, so he fell straight down. (To be continued.) )
