Chapter 67: The Hunt

Seeing that the tiger fell to the ground, the attendant breathed a sigh of relief, but his legs had already been weakened by fright, and as soon as the tiger fell, the attendant also fell to the ground.

The attendant lay on the ground, gasping for air, and a large cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

When he came to his senses and saw Zhao Yechen who was checking the tiger on the side, he immediately knelt on the ground with a "plop" and kept kowtowing to Zhao Yechen: "Thank you Gongzi for saving your life!" The villain has nothing to repay, and from now on, the villain is willing to be a cow and a horse for the son, and he will not give up! ”

"Who are you? Why is it here? Zhao Yechen asked the attendant.

It stands to reason that only the sons of the family and the royal family can be invited to participate in this hunting competition, except for these nobles with heads and faces, that is, their attendants and maids, but they are all inseparable from the master. But why is this man here alone?

"The villain is An Shizi's attendant. Not far ahead, Shizi's team was attacked by a large group of wolves, which were estimated to have not caught food for several days, and were extremely vicious. Seko got separated from us during the fight with the wolves, and I accidentally got separated from the team while looking for Seko, and I met this big tiger. If it weren't for the villain's desperate running, and thanks to Childe's superb archery, otherwise, the villain would have died a long time ago! An Zhilian's attendant wiped his tears and talked about what happened in detail.

"An Shizi? Could it be An Zhilian? When Zhao Yechen heard this, he immediately became anxious. In autumn, these meat-eating animals can catch very little food, in case the wolves are really hungry, An Zhilian will die in minutes!

"Quick, show us where our deceased son and you are separated!" Zhao Yechen hurriedly assembled the team and went in the direction pointed by this attendant to find An Zhilian.

"Brother, will An Zhilian be fine?" Knowing that An Zhilian was lost and chased by wolves, Zhao Lingshu couldn't help but worry.

"It doesn't matter. An Zhihuan has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he is not such an easy person to die. Zhao Yechen comforted Zhao Lingshu, but he was also anxious and panicked in his heart, worried that something would happen to An Zhilian.

"Brother, our soldiers are divided into two ways, the forest is so big, it took a long time to find us together, and we couldn't find An Zhilian." Zhao Lingshu proposed.

"Good. Then you must pay attention to your own safety! Zhao Yechen also proposed Zhao Lingshu, but he was most worried about his sister's safety.

"I will." Zhao Lingshu rode his horse directly to the forefront, and took half of the guards and Zhao Yechen's soldiers to look for the missing An Zhilian in two ways.

The road that Zhao Yechen walked was deep and leafy, and he could see many prey along the way, so Zhao Yechen hunted some animals while looking for An Zhilian. Along the way, An Zhilian didn't find it, but there were dozens more prey.

"Ann Zhilian! Where are you? ”

"An Shizi!"

Zhao Lingshu and her attendants concentrated on finding An Zhilian's whereabouts, and along the way, she and her attendants kept shouting An Zhilian's name, hoping that he would hear the answer so that they could find him.

The road was calm, and there were very few calls from birds, let alone animals.

Zhao Lingshu shouted An Zhilian's name while looking around. Suddenly, a group of black-clothed people appeared in front of the team, all carrying knives, and surrounded their group.

Zhao Lingshu, who was riding a horse at the front, was defenseless, the horse under him neighed, the horse's hooves lifted, and Zhao Lingshu on the horse's back almost fell.

Zhao Lingshu grabbed the reins, stabilized the horse, looked at the group of black-clothed people, and guessed in his heart: "Who sent them to kill me this time?" Xiao Qiming, who has always held a grudge? Or Xiao Qiyun, who has been annoyed and angry recently? ”

But the group of black-clothed men killed all the guards and attendants, but none of them came up to cut her, but the encirclement became smaller and smaller until she was surrounded layer by layer.

"Looks like they don't want to kill me, they just want to capture me alive!" Zhao Lingshu, who understood this, began to tighten the reins, trying to break out of the encirclement and escape.

Under the stalemate, a white-clothed figure suddenly flew down from a tree in the distance, scooped Zhao Lingshu up from the horse's back, stepped lightly on the horse's back with his toes, and jumped out of the encirclement of the black-clothed man with Zhao Lingshu in his arms.

When Zhao Lingshu landed, he saw the face of the person who saved her, it turned out to be An Zhilian!

An Zhilian held a long sword in front of Zhao Lingshu to protect her, and several people in black rushed up to snatch Zhao Lingshu, and as soon as An Zhilian's long sword was raised, those people in black immediately fell to the ground.

After a few rounds, An Zhilian took out something from his sleeve and threw it on the ground, and a large cloud of smoke immediately appeared around him and Zhao Lingshu.

The man in black was so dazzled by the smoke that he couldn't see what was going on around him. And An Zhilian, who had been prepared, immediately fled to a hidden corner with Zhao Lingshu. By the time the smoke cleared, the men in black had long since disappeared, and they had no choice but to go back and report to their master.

An Zhilian and Zhao Lingshu escaped from the smoke ring and the encirclement of the man in black. An Zhihuan had just put Zhao Lingshu on the ground, and the whole person fell to the ground.

"An Zhilian? Ann Zhilian? What happened to you? Don't scare me! Zhao Lingshu saw An Zhihuan fall to the ground, and he couldn't stop shaking his body in fright, calling his name while shaking.

Zhao Lingshu couldn't wake up An Zhilian. When he lowered his head, Zhao Lingshu saw that An Zhilian's body was covered with blood, and several places were soaked in blood. It turned out that he had been seriously injured when he was fighting with the wolves, and when he had just saved Zhao Lingshu, he used light skills and moved his true qi, and then the whole person fainted.

Zhao Lingshu hurriedly flattened An Zhilian's body, grabbed his hand and gave him a pulse. An Zhilian's pulse was extremely unstable, and there were even signs of poisoning.

Zhao Lingshu used all his strength to help An Zhilian to sit and rest under a big tree next to him, and there was no poisoned wound outside, Zhao Lingshu couldn't help but be shy, and tore off the clothes on An Zhilian's body, revealing a long wound on his chest and abdomen, which couldn't stop bleeding, and it seemed to be inflamed.

In a hurry, Zhao Lingshu didn't care about the big truths of "don't look at indecent things" and "men and women don't kiss", so he leaned down and used his mouth to help him suck out the poisonous blood from the wound.

Just halfway through the inhalation, An Zhilian, who had been in a coma, woke up in a daze, and saw that Zhao Lingshu was helping him suck the poisonous blood on the wound, and immediately stopped: "Miss Zhao, this is not appropriate." ”

Helplessly, An Zhihuan was too seriously injured, his voice was very weak, and there was no deterrent, Zhao Lingshu heard An Zhilian's hazy voice shouting for her to stop, but he didn't listen to his words, just continued to suck the poisonous blood, until the blood at the wound became normal again, Zhao Lingshu stopped moving.

"You wait here for a while, and I'll be back shortly." Zhao Lingshu said to An Zhilian, who nodded slightly.

Zhao Lingshu looked around for some herbs that could stop the bleeding and came back. She didn't dare to go far, for fear that in her absence, An Zhilian, who was seriously injured, would encounter some danger.

Zhao Lingshu took a wooden stick, peeled off the dirty skin outside, put the collected herbs on a clean stone, mashed them with a wooden stick, and then picked them up with his hands, gently applied them to An Zhilian's wound, and then put on the clothes he had picked off.

After resting for a while, the poisonous blood had been cleaned up, and the wound had been treated, and An Zhilian slowly regained his strength and his mind slowly cleared up. He opened his eyes and tried to move his hands and feet, as if his strength had returned.

An Zhilian struggled to get up and looked for Zhao Lingshu, and after walking a few steps, he found that Zhao Lingshu's lips were purple and he fainted not far away.

It turned out that after Zhao Lingshu helped An Zhihuan suck out the poisonous blood, he did not clean up the poisonous blood in his mouth. The toxin penetrated down Zhao Lingshu's mouth and had already invaded Zhao Lingshu's body.

An Zhilian, who had just recovered a little, picked up Zhao Lingshu, who was completely unconscious, and walked staggeringly and crookedly for a while, but finally lost his physical strength, and the two fell to the side of the road together.

Because of the excessive force, An Zhilian's wound cracked, and the whole person fainted again.

"Corpse!"

"An Shizi!"

"Miss!"

Zhao Yechen saw that his sister disappeared after looking for An Zhilian, and he was very anxious, so he hurriedly sent people to look for him everywhere.

"Childe!"

A guard shouted Zhao Yechen.

"Is there news of the two of them?" Zhao Yechen was overjoyed and rushed towards the guard.

But what he saw was indeed the corpses of the guards who followed Zhao Lingshu. Zhao Yechen couldn't believe his eyes, he turned over and looked at the corpses one by one, for fear that he would miss Zhao Lingshu.

When he turned over all the corpses, he still didn't see Zhao Lingshu's shadow. Zhao Yechen's disappointment was a little more glad behind: "Since Zhao Lingshu is not in these corpses, can it be said that Zhao Lingshu is still alive?" ”

"The corpse is still alive, let me look for them carefully, even if I turn this mountain over, I will find them!" Zhao Yechen roared and gave orders to all the guards.

Zhao Yechen and the guards shouted the names of Zhao Lingshu and An Zhilian, while searching the forest, not even letting go of a single bush.

Finallyβ€”

"Childe! I found it! One of the guards shouted. Everyone immediately ran in that direction, and Zhao Yechen rushed to the front.

By the time Zhao Yechen arrived, Zhao Lingshu's lips had turned from black purple to jet black, and his whole face was indeed miserable and white. An Zhilian fell to the side, scarred and bloodstained, and no one knew what the two had experienced.

"Go home!" Zhao Yechen hurriedly stepped forward to pick up his sister, asked the guards to set up An Zhilian, and ran all the way with the two of them. Zhao Yechen rode his horse and galloped back to Zhao Lingshu's house to find the imperial doctor for treatment, while An Zhilian was sent back to the mansion of the county lord of Anling.

"What's going on? Isn't it still good when you go out? Mrs. Zhao watched Zhao Yechen hurry back, and Zhao Lingshu, who was still fainted in her arms and had no blood on her face, suddenly turned red.

"Grandma, call the Imperial Doctor!"

Zhao Yechen didn't bother to answer Mrs. Zhao's question, and hugged Zhao Lingshu and went directly to the Lingshu Pavilion.

Zhao Lingshu opened his eyes dimly, and in front of him was a blue-white bed tent, and at the head of the bed was a carved stool with sea pear flowers.

"This is, your own room?"

Zhao Lingshu moved, only to feel sore. As soon as she moved, Mrs. Zhao, who was resting on her stomach next to the bed, was awakened.

When Mrs. Zhao saw Zhao Lingshu wake up, she was overjoyed: "Lingshu, you can be regarded as awake, but you can worry about grandma." As she spoke, Mrs. Zhao wiped her tears with a handkerchief.

"Miss, when you were unconscious, Madame was waiting for you to wake up at the head of your bed." Qing'er, who was serving on the side, added in a timely manner when she saw this.
