Chapter 35: Traces of Blood

It was scary just now.

Fortunately, they met a wolf who had just become a father, and they did not dare to fight with them because they had some scruples, and when they saw that there was food, they took it back to the wolf's den to feed the cubs, otherwise it would not be so easy to get out today.

Although it was just a false alarm, both of them were scared, so they were more worried about the missing Fourth Prince and His Royal Highness Ye Rong.

At this moment, the four princes were not in danger.

On the contrary, he was having a good time.

And His Royal Highness Ye Rong, who is the most favored of the royal family of the Jin Kingdom, is even more fatal to go crazy.

The two had previously hunted a lot of wild things with the help of the guards.

At this time, he was eyeing a wild boar at the same time, and no one would let him, and finally he made a bet, agreeing that whoever lost would do something for the other party, and the guards on both sides were not allowed to interfere.

For a moment, the forest was full of people, and the footsteps were chirping, occasionally mixed with the terrified howls of wild beasts.

You chased after me, and before you knew it, you were getting farther and farther away from the entrance.

However, without the help of the guards, the results of the hunting of the two were greatly reduced, and they chased the wild boar for a while, and even chased the wild boar away, and the two were so tired and panting that they couldn't help complaining to each other, and then it developed into a quarrel, and even drew their swords.

This frightened the guards, and they hurriedly stepped forward to coax and persuade them, and finally let the two little ancestors put out the fire.

The fourth prince sat next to an old tree, threw the bow and arrow in his hand to the side, and then rolled up his sleeves and stretched out his hand to the guards, "Hungry, do you have anything to eat?" ”

Guards, look at me, and I'll look at you.

Just now, the Fourth Highness just went ashore and couldn't wait to drill into the forest, and everyone was in a hurry to find him, so how could they have time to prepare food.

After a while, his personal attendant Qing Songcai shook his head with an embarrassed expression, "Your Highness, we left in a hurry, and we didn't bring food." ”

The fourth prince glared angrily, "Why are you so stupid, you don't bring anything to eat when you go out, you want to starve me to death?" ”

When His Royal Highness Ye Rong heard this, he suddenly sneered twice, "If you say that others are stupid, are you smart?" ”

The fourth prince turned to glare at him again, "You are smart, why did you drive away the wild boar if you are smart?" ”

"Did I run away? It's you, okay. Even if you're stupid, why are you still bothering me? His Royal Highness Ye Rong was also angry, and when he said that he was angry, he stomped his foot heavily.

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, the guards couldn't help but feel a big headache.

Fortunately, Qing Song's eyes were sharp, and when he saw the prey stacked over there, his eyes lit up, "Yes, Your Highness, we have something to eat." ”

"What?" The two masters looked at each other and craned their necks and asked.

Qing Song hurriedly said: "That's it." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed over there, "Why are we here, don't we just want to have a good mouth." ”

A word to wake up the dreamer.

Yes, why are you here, you are obviously guarding a lot of food, but you are still shouting hungry, which is the same as those rich families who have gold and silver at home, but they still blindly cry poor!

Well, now the two of them don't say anything, they are both stupid pigs, much dumber than the one who ran away just now.

"Why don't you go soon?" His Royal Highness Ye Rong squinted at his own guards, and he didn't have a good air.

The fourth prince glanced at him, he was very hungry, he didn't bother to argue with him, he looked at the place where he was sitting and sat down, well, it was quite soft, he just lay down, put his hands behind his head, and fell asleep after closing his eyes.

His Royal Highness Ye Rong glanced at him secretly, and did the same, and he snored evenly not long after lying down.

These two half-grown teenagers are really big-hearted.

The guards looked at each other, and after a little discussion, they divided into two teams, one team spread out to guard the surroundings, and the other team packed up the game and built a fire to roast meat.

Seeing that the sky was gradually darkening, Ji Qing, who was mixed with the guards, thought about it, and quietly released the signal in the end.

The fourth highness was willful, and warned him not to let the prince find him.

He can't be willful.

As the most personal entourage of the prince, Ji Qing has recently felt sensitively that the prince seems to be particularly nervous about the Fourth Highness, but whenever he acts alone, he always has to let them take turns to follow. Once, I didn't know what kind of dream I had at night, so I was so frightened that I got up in the middle of the night, and asked a few of them to stay at the residence of the Fourth Highness all night.

It's no wonder that the son is an only son, and several sisters in the house have already been married, and they don't even have a brother or sister who can talk on weekdays.

His Royal Highness is his cousin, and the two have played together since childhood, and of course their relationship is good.

Otherwise, the last time His Royal Highness was detained by the people of Heguo, he would not have disobeyed the prince and sent someone to attack the Heguo Post House without permission, so that His Royal Highness could be rescued.

For this, he was reprimanded by the prince.

If he hadn't found out the truth later and confessed to the country, he might have been punished.

When he was about to leave today, the prince repeatedly told him to protect the four highnesses.

It's not easy.

Ji Qing squatted in the grass not far away, even if the Fourth Highness was already asleep, his eyes never left and right, and people didn't dare to leave even half a step.

Seeing the signal, Ji Nancheng couldn't help frowning.

Those two boys ran too fast.

Visually judging their current position, they are at least twenty miles away, and it will take more than half an hour to walk.

"Let's go, go over and have a look." Shen Wenjiang said.

For some reason, she felt uneasy.

Ji Nancheng didn't speak, only replaced his answer with action, walking in front and paying attention to the movement around him, while using a small wooden stick to pick up the thorny branches on both sides.

Not long after walking, footprints appeared in front of me.

Ji Nancheng was overjoyed.

I took it for granted that it was Ziyu who left it.

Although there are many people who have come here today, not all of them have the courage to go into the mountains and break through.

Shen Wenjiang felt more and more uneasy.

The two of them continued to follow the trail, and the footprints became more and more chaotic.

After walking for another half a moment, Ji Nancheng suddenly stopped, his eyes staring at a certain place in a daze.

Shen Wenjiang followed his line of sight and suddenly changed his face.

I saw that the thorny bushes over there were trampled to all sides, as if they had just experienced a cruel ravage.

What's even more shocking is that the thorny bushes that can't afford to wilt are stained with a lot of blood, and some of them are still dripping with blood.

"Shizi—" Shen Wenjiang shouted, his voice a little panicked.

Ji Nancheng suddenly stretched out his hand and held her hand tightly.

Shen Wenjiang could feel that his hand was trembling.

"Ji Qing's signal was sent here." Ji Nancheng said slowly.

The voice is also trembling.

"It's all right, Shizi. Like us, they have encountered wild beasts. Shen Wenjiang said, and smiled reluctantly, "It's just that we are not as lucky, so many guards follow, and it is not strange to kill the beast." ”

Ji Nancheng hummed, didn't speak again, just looked around.

Soon, they found the fire on the other side, the fire had been extinguished, and only a few wisps of heat were bubbling around, scattered with the remains of gnawed bones.

An old tree not far away was also attacked, and its thick trunk was slashed several times, leaving deep scars, and blood stains appeared on the ground in addition to scattered bone residues.

This is clearly not an attack from beasts.
