Zhao Jiu recognized the horse: "You...... Are you Princess Jingxi's horse? ”

- yes, who are you? What are you doing there?

Zhao Jiu's eyes showed surprise: "You don't care who I am and what I am doing here, you wait for me to come down, and then take me to your master." ”

- Can you understand me? Ah, you're Zhao Jiu!

"Do you recognize me?"

However, it is not surprising that someone can understand their horse language, and the news must have spread among the horses.

"So, I'll slide down slowly now, and you pick me up."

The horse was quite cooperative, and Zhao Jiu was finally saved from the slope. She got on the horse, and the horse led her through the woods to a stream, and Li Jingxi lay on the side of the stream, half of her body soaked in the water, already unconscious.

Zhao Jiu looked around, surrounded by high cliffs, as if they were in a valley. So he asked, "How did you get here?" ”

The princess wanted to hunt a fox, and we chased it to it, but the fox was so cunning that he tricked us into jumping into the river, and we were swept down by the water.

The corners of Zhao Jiu's mouth twitched, damn, no horse is stupid enough to rush down the mountain, but there are horses stupid enough to rush directly into the river!

"And what about the princess's retinue?"

- Those incompetent horses can't catch up with me.

...... "You have the ability, but you are stupid enough to be tricked into the river by a fox!"

Zhao Jiu helped Li Jingxi up and sat against the tree, patted her face, and shouted, "Princess, wake up, Princess Jingxi, wake up." ”

Li Jingxi suddenly coughed violently, his brows tightened, and he suddenly threw himself to the ground and began to retching frantically. Zhao Jiu hurriedly stroked her back with his hand, and after a while, Li Jingxi came to his senses.

"I ...... Still alive......" Li Jingxi opened his eyes weakly, saw Zhao Jiu, and asked, "Who are you?" Where is Princess Ben? ”

Zhao Jiu said: "I'm here to find you, princess." Can you stand up? I'll take you back. ”

Li Jingxi nodded, and Zhao Jiu bent down to help her again, and when he raised his head, his eyes just met a grizzly bear in the distance.

The bears are sleeping this season, so they shouldn't be here, can they be ......

At this moment, a low roar came out from the other side, and Zhao Jiu looked over, and another brown bear was also looking at them fiercely.

Sure enough, did they fall into a bear's den!!

Li Jingxi was so frightened that the blood on her face faded, and a second before she screamed, she had already covered her mouth with Zhao Jiu.

"Don't make a sound, we'll play dead." Zhao Jiu told Li Jingxi with his mouth.

- yes, I forgot to mention, I just heard a bear crying, so I ran out to look for it, and I didn't expect it to be right here with us.

Zhao Jiu glared at the stupid horse fiercely, there is a bear who didn't say it earlier, what's the use of saying it now!

But at this time, she couldn't scold the horse out loud, and held Li Jingxi tightly in her arms, leaning against the tree, closing her eyes, and pretending to be dead.

A neighing of horses sounded in his ears, followed by the roar of bears and the sound of horses' hooves. It seemed that the bear was chasing the horse, and Zhao Jiu was just about to open his eyes to check the situation, when another roar sounded in her ears again, and she trembled, it seemed that the other bear had not left.

Li Jingxi in his arms was already trembling with fright, and Zhao Jiu's heart was secretly pinched, only to feel that the footsteps of the beast landing were so terrifying, and every time it seemed to shake his heart out.

Suddenly, Li Jingxi broke free from Zhao Jiu's embrace, screaming and desperately running into the forest. And the grizzly bear roared, and chased frantically into the woods.

Zhao Jiu gritted his teeth and cursed secretly, and quickly got up to chase Li Jingxi and the grizzly bear.

Li Jingxi has not been afraid of the sky since she was a child, that is because she has never seen such a scene, at this time she was chased by a hideous beast, she only felt that the sky was about to fall, the ground was about to crack, and she cried while running and shouted: "Father save me!" ”

Suddenly tripped over something under her feet, Li Jingxi fell out all of a sudden, she didn't have time to cry out in pain, and the roar of the grizzly bear that seemed to tear her apart sounded in her ears. She turned her head in horror to see that the grizzly bear's fangs were already within reach.

"Ahh

Li Jingxi screamed loudly, and the grizzly bear, who was about to pounce, was suddenly hit on the head by a stone, the bear's head suddenly turned to the side, and his bulky body shook. Li Jingxi stared over, and saw a thin little man standing in the distance, shouting and shouting at the grizzly bear: "Hey, stupid bear, look where, I'm here!" ”

After saying that, Zhao Jiu threw the stone in his hand again, hitting the top of the grizzly bear's head, smashing it so much that it screamed, turned the bear's head and ran towards her.

Zhao Jiu turned around and ran, although she ran 100 meters and won the first place when she was in school, but it was still extremely difficult to race against the bear. But just as the bear was about to catch up with her, she dodged around behind a tree, and the grizzly ran out for a long time before coming back after her.

Zhao Jiu stood behind the tree and didn't run, seeing the vicious grizzly bear pounce on her, she just smiled at the bear and waved her hand at the same time.

"Goodbye."

Plop –

The grizzly bear howled and fell into a trap next to the tree.

Just now when Zhao Jiu went to chase Li Jingxi, he found this trap, it should be arranged by the hunters under the mountain, but he didn't expect the royal hunting to surround the mountain, but this trap stayed to help a lot.

Zhao Jiu slowly slipped to the ground against the trunk of the tree, gasping deeply and reaching out to wipe the sweat from her forehead. It was the first time she had encountered a bear outside of the zoo when she was so old, and she had a race of wits with the bear, her back was completely soaked with sweat, and her legs began to tremble after realizing it. But she didn't sit for long, and she quickly got up and went back to find Li Jingxi.

Li Jingxi had already fainted in fright, and Zhao Jiu checked her condition, but fortunately she was not injured.

"Li Jingxi, my sister's first time was given to you, you have to remember your sister's kindness and help your sister rescue Yu Fang!"

Zhao Jiu wanted to help Li Jingxi up, but she ran too hard just now, and now her legs were weak with palpitations, and she didn't have much strength for a while. But if she didn't get out of this dangerous place quickly, she wouldn't have the strength to run again if another bear appeared later.

Suddenly, she remembered the horse whistle she had brought with her, Li Jingxi's horse had just run out, if she summoned the horse back, wouldn't the two of them be able to ride back on horseback?

Zhao Jiu immediately took out the horse's whistle and blew it, and after a while, the sound of horses' hooves and neighing came from afar. She was overjoyed, stood up and looked into the distance, and by the moonlight, she saw Li Jingxi's horse coming back. But her face changed suddenly, followed by the sound of horses' hooves followed by the roar of bears.

Damn, that stupid horse brought the brown bear back!

For a moment, despair and fear occupied Zhao Jiu's heart. She quickly dragged Li Jingxi behind the tree and hid, and when the horse and bear ran close quickly, she held her breath and raised her wrist, revealing the ordinary silver bracelet.

Hong Qian said that the golden needle in this dark ring could protect her life, although she hadn't used it yet, but in this case, she could only fight!

Whoosh –

A cold arrow pierced the night sky, striking the brown bear in the back. Zhao Jiu was stunned, only to see a few people arrive on horseback, and the current person was wearing a silver soft armor, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, putting away the gentleness of his usual days, and he was full of heroism when he held a bow and shot arrows.

Yuan Xi!

Zhao Jiu's pupils shrank, and he saw that the brown bear had not fallen after being shot with two arrows, but roared more and more fiercely, turning his head and rushing towards Yuan Xi.

"Yuan Xi, be careful!"

Zhao Jiu shouted, and the guards around Yuan Xi also reacted, and they all drew the knives in their hands, and Yuan Xi pulled out an arrow with his backhand and aimed it at the brown bear. Zhao Jiu rushed out from behind the tree without hesitation, aiming at the dark ring on the brown bear's wrist.

In the dimly lit forest, Zhao Jiu didn't know if his golden needle had been shot, but Yuan Xi's arrow had already been inserted into the back of the brown bear, and this arrow seemed to be more powerful than the first two arrows, and after a roar that pierced the eardrums, the brown bear shook its bulky body and fell heavily to the ground, never to get up again.

Yuan Xi rode over and held Zhao Jiu's arm just before she was about to fall. He frowned, perhaps just after a dangerous moment, and his tone was not as gentle as usual: "Are you alright?" ”

"It's fine." Zhao Jiu shook his head and asked nervously, "Are you okay?" ”

Yuan Xi was slightly stunned, and the handsome little man with a pale face was full of worry about him. After a moment, he softened his tone: "I'm fine." ”

Zhao Jiu put his mind at ease, suddenly remembered something, and immediately turned back and pointed to a tree: "Princess Jingxi is there, she fainted in fright, but it's okay." ”

Before Zhao Jiu's words were finished, Yuan Xi had already run behind the tree, and only breathed a sigh of relief after checking Li Jingxi's situation and making sure that she was fine, and then picked up Li Jingxi and walked back.

Zhao Jiu squatted on the ground panting, Yuan Xi paused when he passed her, and asked as if he was concerned, "Can't you stand up?" I'll call someone to help you. ”

Zhao Jiu hurriedly waved his hand: "No need, I'll just rest for a while." ”

Yuan Xi was silent for a while, and then said: "You found Jing Xi, I will explain to my father and give you a reward." ”

Zhao Jiu didn't care about the reward, as long as Li Jingxi went back safe and sound, she could use this matter to plead with Li Yun for Yu Fang. And if she goes to the emperor to receive the reward, maybe she will meet the crown prince, which is absolutely not good!

"No, no. Yuan Xi, you can quickly bring Princess Jingxi back, she is young and has been so frightened, she needs to be comforted. ”

Yuan Xi didn't seem to expect Zhao Jiu to want anything, and was slightly surprised, but he didn't continue to mention the reward, but said, "I'll call someone to come and help you, let's go back together." ”

Zhao Jiu was afraid that he would meet the prince when he followed Yuan Xi back, so he politely refused: "You don't have to worry about me, I can go back by myself, so let's leave me a horse, and I'll go back after a while." ”

Seeing that she insisted, Yuan Xi didn't say more, and before leaving, she told her that there was danger in the forest and asked her to go back quickly, and reminded her that her beard was crooked.
