The peaks of Nakadake Mountain are undulating, and there are many dense forests around the vast hunting grounds at the northern foothills. The wild pheasant that was "chased and killed" by Chu Jiangmian all the way flew into the depths of the woods to escape, which was a matter of course. However, the "killer" behind him didn't want to let it go. If the pheasant could talk, it would have turned around hysterically and yelled, "You are paralyzed...... Why don't the beasts in the mountains refuse to let me go?! ”

It's just a pity that even if the pheasant is fried in anger, it can't speak. The one who can talk is the girl who clapps her hands and urges, and it is her words that make Chu Jiangmian, who is so tired that he is panting, pluck up the courage to continue to chase this pheasant, and there is a great tendency to swear not to give up if he catches it.

Only when you enter here do you realize that the mountain forest in front of you is very deep. Tall trees and green vines are connected, and the dense shade of some century-old trees blocks the sunlight and becomes dark and deep. The shouting and neighing of horses in the hunting grounds outside seemed to be isolated all at once. And the further you go, the more grass grows and the more people go inaccessible.

Chu Jiangmian's eyes were too flawless to care, he just stared at the trail of the pheasant, lest it run away. The colorful feathers were very noticeable, and after a while, it seemed to be tired of flying, and finally stopped on a large tree. Chu Jiangmian took an arrow and stabilized his breath. This time he would not allow himself to miss again.

Chu Jiangxue, who came after him, and the guard Zheng Qi and the coachman Lao Ji were not far away. They hid behind the tree, looking at Chu Jiangmian's aiming, with different expressions. Lao Ji drooped his eyelids and slowly tasted the wine. It was as if he always had a pot of wine in his arms, and he could take a few sips whenever and wherever he wanted. And Jiang Xue'er clenched her little fists hard, opened her mouth nervously, and had an excited look on her face, cheering for her brother. Zheng Qi, the guard with two swords on his back, sighed secretly. This prince of his own family is also too bad at archery! But he is also really good to the little princess.

However, just when Chu Jiangmian was full of confidence and was ready to shoot down the pheasant with an arrow, it seemed to be suddenly frightened, and it fluttered and spread its wings and flew again. The trees are dense and obscured by foliage, making it difficult to catch anymore.

Chu Jiangmian cursed in a muttered manner. It took a long time to waste more than a dozen feather arrows, but I didn't even get a single chicken feather. It's too embarrassing, isn't it? It's just a loss of the tall image in my sister's mind!

"Prince be careful......!"

Chu Jiangmian was feeling depressed in his heart. But suddenly he heard Zheng Qi not far away shouting a warning. When he hurriedly looked up, he saw that just a few steps away from him, the grass and trees were alarmed, the wind was steep, and a huge white shadow jumped out, extremely fast, almost in a flash.

Chu Jiangmian was taken aback. But before he could see what it was, the beast that was chasing after him appeared.

The spotted money cheetah is undoubtedly a fast-moving and extremely attacking animal. It had just chased its prey, and it had already seen blood, and it was about to feast. But suddenly he saw that someone was blocking his way, and the ferocious beast didn't care who it was, and with a murderous roar, he suddenly pounced on Chu Jiangmian.

This sudden change was almost unexpected. People more than a dozen feet away can see the situation here clearly. In Xue'er's screams, Zheng Qi, who had just noticed that the situation was not good, had already drawn his knife in his hand and was about to rush over to rescue him. Lao Ji also realized the seriousness of the situation at the first time, threw away the wine jug, and got up with his breath. It's just that although they acted quickly, from such a distance, even if they could save Chu Jiangmian's life, it was difficult to guarantee that he would not be injured.

The last to come, the first to come, to make a judgment for the superior. Lao Ji, whose body was like a big bird, rose in mid-air, but at this moment he was very remorseful in his heart. You should always be by the prince's side! I was careless just now, thinking that there would be no danger in this quiet place in the deep forest, but I was happy to let the prince relax. How could you have imagined that such a dangerous guy would suddenly pop up!

If Chu Jiangmian was injured because of this, thinking that Queen Jiang Xin doted on her son like his own eyes, even if no one would say anything about him, he would have no shame to return to Zhao again. Old Ji Chang took a breath, and his figure flying in mid-air suddenly increased, his arms grew violently, and once he had hidden his cultivation for many years, he was full of energy, and the surrounding grass and trees flew wildly, and the withered vines were entangled, which was amazing. In any case, he must kill the leopard who wanted to hurt people, and maybe save the prince from being seriously injured.

However, after a while, Lao Ji and Zheng Qi, who had arrived one after another, stood in place in a daze, glancing at each other. Some don't quite believe what they see.

"Brother Jiang Mian! …… Y-How are you? Are there any injuries...... Scared the hell out of me! ”

Chu Jiangxue, who was running over desperately after him, suddenly hugged his brother who was still holding a bow in his hand, his face was full of tears, and he couldn't help crying out loud. At that moment, she watched as the ferocious beast had pounced on top of his head. At that moment, I felt that my world was about to collapse! If her brother, who loved her the most, died, she didn't know what she would do.

"Silly girl, it's okay. Don't you still believe in your brother's ability? Ha ha! A small big cat that still wants to hurt people? Don't look at who Prince Ben is! ”

Chu Jiangmian's face was a little pale, and there was obviously a trilling tone in his tone, but he made a heroic appearance. He shook his hands as he comforted his sister. Obviously, he pulled the bow hard at the critical moment just now, and his arm was a little cramped.

"Prince, is it really alright?"

The guard Zheng Qi first poked the cheetah that fell to the ground with a knife, and found that it had no breath, so he was relieved. He hurriedly checked Chu Jiangmian's physical condition up and down, lest he be injured.

At a glance just now, he had already seen the cause of the cheetah's death. A feathered arrow entered its eye, piercing its head directly from the front. But I didn't expect that my own prince, who was not good at archery, would have such a quick response at an emergency, and the strength of the head was just right...... If it weren't for the fact that he had been watching Chu Jiangmian grow up for many years, knowing that he had always been unskilled and martial arts, he would almost have thought that this was the means of a supreme master.

For warriors, with weapons in their hands, it is not difficult to kill a cheetah or even a tiger with a sword and spear, Zheng Qi can also do it in the shortest possible time when he shoots with a double sword. However, it was not an easy task to be almost face-to-face like this, and an arrow hit the vital point, so that the beast did not have the slightest room to struggle, and was killed in an instant. Whether it is the accuracy of the head, the strength everywhere, the psychological quality and the degree of judgment, there must be no mistakes. Otherwise, in a short distance, in a hurry, a bow and arrow that cannot be used will not cause damage to the beast at all. Even if you shoot it, it's likely to be a lose-lose situation.

Chu Jiangmian, who was comforting his sister, shook his head at him with a smile, signaling that he was not injured and did not need to worry. Zheng Qi glanced at the colorful cheetah again, and couldn't help but say loudly.

"Prince, this arrow you shot killed this leopard at once, it is too powerful. It's really Jiren's own heavenly help! ”

"Coincidence, coincidence! It's pure coincidence...... My archery skills are actually not that powerful, but it is more than enough to kill a big cat. Ha ha! ”

Chu Jiangmian, who had regained his composure, looked a little proud. Jiang Xue'er, who was provoked by him to burst into laughter, suddenly looked up at his face, stuck out her tongue and said.

"But, Brother Jiang Mian, then people wanted those beautiful feathers just now, why did you shoot so many arrows and didn't hit them? Hee-hee. ”

"Uh, that's it...... It's just that this prince has the virtue of a good life, let it go! Xue'er, let's not want that pheasant feather, since you like fresh colors, the fur of this cheetah is not bad, how about letting Zheng Qi peel it off for you in a while and take it back to make a scarf? ”

"Huh...... I don't want it! Cher only likes gentle and cute things, these fierce beasts will have nightmares if they are brought around! ”

"Alright! That Xue'er wait, I'll find your favorite one again, such a big Zhongyue Mountain, we have time, don't worry about not finding it. ”

As their brother and sister talked, Zheng Qi dragged the cheetah aside, ready to deal with it and bring it back later. Lao Ji took a closer look, lowered his eyelids, didn't say anything, leaned under the tree and sat down and continued to drink his wine. However, a few hints of surprise and meaningful smiles flashed in his eyes.

Cher didn't dare to look at the hideous appearance of the beast's death, and when she turned her head to the side, she seemed to have found something, and her mouth let out a surprised "huh". Then he grabbed Chu Jiangmian's arm and shouted loudly.

"Brother Jiang Mian! Look at it...... What is that? ”

Chu Jiangmian couldn't help but be stunned when he looked in the direction of her finger. Dozens of feet away, in the grass under the tree, there was an animal lying there, and the sunlight shining through the gaps in the leaves shone on it, and its whole body was white, as if with an invisible light. Sensing that it had been discovered, it struggled to get up, but stumbled and fell to the ground. Apparently, it was injured.

Xue'er, who was attracted by her gaze, had already taken Chu Jiangmian's hand, wanting to get closer and take a closer look. Zheng Qi hurriedly followed him with a knife, lest any more accidents happen. When he got closer, Chu Jiangmian's eyes lit up, and he could see that it was a white reindeer.

"Ahh It's beautiful. Brother Jiang Mian, is this a deer? But why is it white? I've never seen it before! ”

"Not bad. It's a deer...... It should be the one that was chased by the cheetah just now. As for why it's white, it's a complicated question, and you won't understand it. ”

Seeing his sister's cheering appearance, Chu Jiangmian rubbed his forehead helplessly. It seems that no matter what time it is, there seems to be no difference in girls' liking for these furry things.
