Chapter Twenty-Seven: Winter Hunting in the Lost Mountains

The north wind was fierce and the war drums were blowing.

Saber with bow, brocade hat mink fur. Several horses galloped, and the full moon frightened the feathers. This scene is that the children of the Xuanguo family are carrying out winter hunting again according to the customs of previous years.

This year is different from previous years, the emperor himself did not come, but the prince came, and the prince came with King Kang Xuanyuan Qi.

In the middle of the first seat, Xuanyuan Jue was wearing a rather thick black coat, but he didn't expect that just this caused the whispers of several children of the family below.

"It is said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was assassinated in one eye, I think this not only hurt his eyes, but even his body bones are not good, and the young King Kang on the side has not seen the cold."

"Haha, I said that this prince doesn't look like a prince, but looks like a bear, not only that, but he is still blind in one eye......"

"Such a person can also be a prince, then I am the king of heaven!"

Carried away, even if these few seats without long eyes were far from the last in the list, far away from the prince, but under the public, their every move was clearly seen by Xuanyuan who was sitting at the top.

Even if you can't hear what they are talking about, you know when you think about it, it's nothing more than laughing at yourself as a prince. Moreover, I am afraid that this is also the thinking of most of the children of various families present.

Secretly clenched his fingers, his fists clenched like a rock, and Xuanyuan Jue's forbearance was seen by Xuanyuan Qi and Xu He and others who were waiting on the side. Xuanyuan saw that the fist was clenched tighter and tighter, and the knuckles seemed to make a "gurgling" sound. And over there, the people in the place where Xuanyuan Jue's eyes were looking still didn't care about themselves, talking and laughing at themselves, completely looking like no one else.

Not as patient as Xuanyuan Xuan, Xuanyuan Qi got up, and when Xuanyuan and Xu He noticed it, her little bean had already run in front of those people.

"Whoa!"

Xuanyuan Qi didn't say a word, and directly overturned a few cases shared in front of those people. Only then did those people stop, but the sudden bold move of Xuanyuan Qi made them distracted, so that Xuanyuan Qi picked up a pot of wine on the case next to him again, and poured a drop on their faces, and they didn't react.

"You bastards! Although this king just learned to ride and shoot this year, I didn't learn it well, and you guys shouldn't laugh at me like this, the winter hunt hasn't started yet! Hum! In my opinion, you are not necessarily any better than me! ”

Preemptively, with the identity of King Kang, Xuanyuan Qi cleaned up those few people firmly, and the eyes of the children of all families are now on this side.

"Kang...... His Royal Highness King Kang, Xiao Chen and the others didn't ...... just now" was stepped on by Xuanyuan Qi on his shoulder, and the first person to laugh had to kneel on the ground obediently. Knowing that the person who came was not good, and it was also the master he couldn't provoke, the defense that subconsciously came out of his mouth also trembled a little.

Unexpectedly, during this spitting and spitting, Xuanyuan Qi grabbed the head, and the strength of his feet also increased, turned the direction, and stepped on the man's head impartially.

"It's not talking about me like a long-tongued woman, that's what you're talking about? Well? A few of you still looked at the eyebrows and smiled at what the king said, and said! ”

With his hands on his waist, he was not afraid of heaven and earth, Xuanyuan Qi dragged out his voice for a long time, as if he had specially given room to let the head under her feet think about it before answering her.

was trampled by Xuanyuan Qi, his face pressed tightly to the ground, and his face was pressed by a layer of frosty hard soil. On weekdays, how could he have been taught such a lesson? It's just that now, he has to give in. Despise the prince, the sin can be big or small, he hasn't lived enough!

"Yes! Be! Be! Xiaochen doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it on weekdays, but today he ...... Today is a moment of confusion, I drank too much wine, and then there is a nonsense, His Royal Highness King Kang, you don't remember the villain, and spare me! ”

"Hey, hey, hey......"

Faint laughter came from the banquet, one after another. At this moment, the child of the family who was trampled on the ground by Xuanyuan Qi was afraid that he even had the heart to dig a pit and hide.

"Ahem...... Qi'er, you've had enough of messing around, right? Be careful not to miss the time of everyone's winter hunting. ”

After a few light coughs, Xuanyuan Jue beckoned to Xuanyuan Qi, got up at the same time, raised a strong bow beside him, and raised his hand, which was an arrow towards the sky.

An arrow broke through the air, announcing the beginning of winter hunting.

"Driving!! Ah! Ah Shi, you tell them to hurry up, they can't grab the prey if they are so slow! ”

Excited, Regulus grasped the saddle with one hand and the other on top of her head, flicking a whip no more than the length of her arm.

This is her first winter hunt, and she is very excited, but Liu Shi, who is riding another horse on the side, is different. He is almost wrapped in a splendid quilt on his body today, and the cold air of early winter invades his body, if it weren't for Liu Chu's accident in the palace for a while, it should be him who is by his side today.

However, it doesn't matter if it's Liu Chu, or it's him Liu Shi. No matter who it is, they will not leave Xuanyuan Qi today, and they will not let her put her in danger.

What's more, Xuanyuan Qi shouldn't have come to winter hunting.

Therefore, from the beginning of the winter hunt to the present, nearly half an hour has passed, and under the leadership of a few petty officials responsible for leading horses, Xuanyuan Qi and Liu Shi and their party are far behind the crowd, slowly, just circling nearby.

"Shhh A horse neighed from not far away, and a jujube red horse with a white mark on its forehead stopped in front of Xuanyuan Qi. "Smack!" A fluffy mass of something with mottled blood on its fur was dropped by the man on the horse.

"Drive!"

Without saying a word, he turned around and left. When Xuanyuan Qi got off the horse and picked up the rabbit from the ground, he saw that the person was Xu He.

What's the point of throwing a rabbit to yourself? Could it be that the royal brother asked him to come?

It's a pity that Xu He came and went in a hurry, and Xuanyuan didn't have time to ask him.

Here, Xuanyuan Qi was still holding the rabbit's ears in his hand, pouting and looking at the injured rabbit who was still struggling. Not far from there, another person rode a horse, and this time she looked up and saw that it was Xie Jin, who had tied her hair.

"Yo he! Not bad! We all thought you couldn't hunt anything! Hold it!! ”

Xie Jin jumped off the horse, and by the way, he also ripped off the prey hanging behind the saddle. It was a roe deer, the roe deer was still alive, but it was tied to its four hooves with a rope, and it had already struggled so much along the way that it had no strength, and now, it could only be honest, at the mercy of Xie Jin, and handed it over to Xuanyuan Qi.

"Brother Huang asked you and Ah He to send it? I don't want it, I'm going to fight the prey myself! ”

Xuanyuan Qi said, pulling out a dagger from his boot and cutting the rope from the roe deer's hooves. The next moment, the roe deer also ran away immediately, and Xie Jin couldn't chase after him.

Seeing that the prey he had worked so hard to catch was so easily let go, Xie Jin had no choice but to shake his head helplessly, not angry. Turning around, he glanced at the house doctor who was bandaging the rabbit's wound, it was none other than the one he had seen when he sent Xu He to the palace last time, a familiar face.

This house doctor is Wang Xiaoliang, when he saw Xie Jin, he also felt a little familiar, smiled, and continued to medicine the rabbit.

"Huh! Ah Shi, I don't know if you've heard of it, this winter hunt, who has hunted the most prey, is this year to be able to come to Weiyang Hall to participate in the New Year's banquet! ”

Here, Liu Shi saw that Wang Xiaoliang had bandaged the wound of the injured rabbit, so he let the rabbit go. Hearing Xie Jin say this, after thinking about it carefully, it seems that this is indeed the case.

"Yes, I heard that the palace is also planning to invite the famous drama in the Qianjin Building this year, I don't know what it is called, I only heard that his play "Agarwood Saves the Mother" sings the best, in Yecheng, if you want to watch this play, but it is hard to find."

As soon as the words fell, Xie Jin couldn't help laughing and laughed out loud. He looked at the people who were looking at him in front of him, who looked confused, especially Xuanyuan Qi, who was still standing there with his waist crossed, he couldn't stop laughing.

Others may not know why the drama is only famous in Yecheng for a play "Agarwood Saves the Mother", but he knows it, and Xuanyuan Qi should also know it.

However, now looking at the dazed appearance of Xuanyuan Qi in front of him, I am afraid that this little bean Ding no longer remembers this matter.

Here, Xuanyuan Qi saw that Xie Jin couldn't stop laughing, so he felt bored, turned his head, and saw a few crows on the ground not far away.

This crow should also be considered a prey, right?

With the idea of catching a few crows, Xuanyuan Qi made a big circle from behind a few horses, not only hiding her prey but also from those people.

In short, when Liu Shi found out that this Xuanyuan Qi was missing, Xuanyuan Qi herself had already run far away.

"Ahh Stinky Jin?! Where are you? "Just now, I was obviously running towards the group of crows, but I didn't expect to chase all the way, Xuanyuan Qi actually hit by mistake, got out of the paddock circle, and got lost in this mountain forest.

I don't know the direction, I go around in circles, but I go farther and farther.

Branches are covered with snow. At this moment, in her eyes, this chaotic forest without leaves is like a group of demons and monsters with bloody mouths and fangs and claws.

"I'm the dignified King of Xuanguo, Xuanyuan Qi, I'...... I...... I'm seven years old, and I'm not a five or six-year-old kid, so don't you want to scare me!! ”

In order to embolden herself, the villain shouted loudly alone, but her hand holding the dagger was still shaking.

This shout caused an echo in the empty forest, but this echo, when it was transmitted, changed its tone, and in Xuanyuan Qi's ears, it sounded particularly terrifying.

"Oops! It hurts! Wow!!! ”

One accidentally tripped over a stone on the ground, and Xuanyuan Qi fell firmly when he landed. And her pain is not an illusion, just now, her right ankle sprained.

Now, she can't even walk.

However, it was at this time that a behemoth was slowly approaching her.

Looking at the black shadows that were getting closer and closer from the dark forest, plus the pair of green eyes like ingots. Xuanyuan didn't know what to do, he couldn't run away now, and he didn't know where the dagger he had just held in his hand had fallen.

It's really called the heavens and the earth!

"I'm honest and never lie! So I'm telling you, I'm not tasty at all!! You can go somewhere else! ”

With Xuanyuan Qi's words, the entire figure of the approaching black shadow was also revealed.

Dressed in a black brocade-like smooth and shiny fur, a pair of eyes that temporarily hid the faint green light were as deep as a mountain stream. This black wolf, who is not small, kept looking at Xuanyuan Qi who was rubbing his feet in front of him, as if he was standing there thinking like a person.

What happened next, unexpectedly. Even if Xuanyuan Qi and Liu Chu said it, Liu Chu would not believe it.

"Ha......" There was a low, muffled sound from the black wolf's throat, and white heat came out of its mouth. It took a few steps closer to Xuanyuan Qi and lay down in front of her, and its unbent tail flung straight in the direction of Xuanyuan Qi in a daze.

Looking like this, it doesn't look like she wants to eat herself, and it doesn't seem like she is saying that she should run into its mouth to save it from doing it.

"You're going to let me get on your back? You, do you know where I'm from?! ”

Xuanyuan Qi said as she moved her body, and seeing that the black wolf didn't respond, but just flicked her tail again, she simply lay down on the black wolf's back with confidence.

Just hugged the black wolf's neck, and the next moment, Xuanyuan Qi felt like he was flying out. She dared to say that even the horse that Xuanyuan was riding was not so fast.

Said Cao Cao Cao arrived, Xuanyuan Qi lay firmly on the black wolf, and when it ran to it with him in no knowing where to go, not far behind him, Xuanyuan Qi rode a horse and found it, and in his hand, he was holding Xuanyuan Qi's dagger that he picked up nearby.

"Put people down !!"

Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, misunderstanding. Xuanyuan didn't know the antecedents, but the black wolf wanted to take Xuanyuan back to the den and share the food with the wolves.

Hurry up, Xuanyuan chased closely, but he was only a few steps away.

And Xuanyuan Qi obediently lay on the back of this black wolf, only hearing the wind whistling in his ears, and he didn't know anything about Xuanyuan chasing behind him.

It was also at this time, with the black wolf leaping high, Xuanyuan Jue also jumped with the horse, and in an instant, when the two crossed an inconspicuous stream mouth that was frozen into ice, the two, the horses, and the black wolf, all disappeared.

A drift of snow quietly fell on a horseshoe print at the mouth of the stream.

Quietly, like an undisturbed dream.
