After the lake, it's time to prepare for the annual spring hunt. This spring hunt was different from the past, and the Northern Chu royal family sent people to discuss the friendship between the two states, just in time for this spring hunt. The old emperor wanted to do his best to be a landlord, so he naturally wanted to bring them to participate in this spring hunt. And this year, Gu Linchuan was unable to participate due to the recurrence of an old injury, and Gu Jinchen, as a young marshal, naturally had to be vigilant about the safety of the old emperor at all times. Naturally, it is necessary to prepare well, not only that, but the person sent by Northern Chu this time is the famous god of war in Southern Chu - King Jin Chu Hantian, and he can't help but have a competition in secret, lest he Northern Chu think that I have no one in Nanyue, so he can be bullied. And the most suitable person in South Vietnam to compete with him is Gu Jinchen.

"Alas!" Jinchen sat under the porch and sighed, "Brother Feng, this spring hunt is to toss me"

"It's just that we Jinchen are too outstanding," Feng Zi smiled faintly and sat side by side with her, "It's in response to the sentence that capable people work harder."

"Brother Feng, you have something to say" Jinchen pouted dissatisfiedly, "Brother Feng, don't you want Chen'er to be so outstanding?" ”

"It's not that I don't want to, but I ...... Scared"

"Scared?"

"Yes, I'm afraid that something will happen to you" Feng Zixu looked at Gu Jinchen, his expression was full of worry, "It is said that accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, I don't know how many courtiers in history, because of the four words of high merit, they were suspected by the monarch, and finally ended up in a different place."

"Brother Feng, you are too worried" Jinchen suddenly laughed, "This kind of thing will never happen to me Gu Jinchen."

"yes, it's me who is too worried" Feng Zixu turned his head and whispered to himself.

Jinchen turned a deaf ear and stopped speaking.

In the blink of an eye, the day of spring hunting has arrived, and Xian Ge packed up his things for Jinchen early.

"Father, sister, I'll go first" Jinchen took his suit, stepped on the tall horse and waved goodbye to Gu Linchuan and Gu Xiange, and then whipped away.

"The air outside the city is better than that in Lin'an City," Sang Yu got off his horse and ran straight to a small mound, saying with emotion. Jinchen and Xingchen walking side by side, seeing him like that, Jinchen couldn't help but smile and said, "That's natural, there are still a lot of fun things to do in the hunting ground, but it's much more fun than that Lin'an City, do you want to take advantage of this great opportunity and have fun before going back to Lin'an?" ”。

"What Jin Chen said is not wrong at all, you know, my aunt is very strict with you, if it is normal, I am afraid that I will not even have a chance to go out of Lin'an" Xingchen couldn't help but tease him.

"Hey, it's not fun, why do you two always have to demolish me" Sang Yu pouted and ran down from the mound, "Sure enough, I made a few bad friends, okay, I also admit it, who let us know each other with our bare butts?" ”

"I don't recognize this," Jinchen said with a smile, "When you guys are bare-assed, I can already hold a sword, haha!" ”

"This ......" Sang Yu looked at the stars, and then turned his head to look at Jinchen, "No matter, it's almost the same anyway, Jinchen, you're just a year older than me."

"It's a year older than you, you can't deny that, even if you do, you should still call me brother."

"Ahem, Jinchen Jinchen, I'll call you Jinchen, I want me to call you brother, there is no door." Sang Yu coughed a few times, didn't dare to stay here any longer, and after replying to Jinchen, he left in a hurry. Xingchen just laughed, to say that except for Jinchen, no one can make Sang Yu look like this.

"Jinchen, it's almost time to the hunting ground, let's compare it this time"

"Okay, I'm sure I'll win you this time," Jinchen agreed very happily.

The group drove on the road for a long time before arriving at the hunting ground.

The tents of several people have been prepared, and the tents of the three of them have fallen in one place, as for Yike, they did not come with everyone this time, as if they were taking advantage of the vacation and returned to Liangquan's hometown with their father.

As soon as he settled down, Sang Yu came out to make a fuss, but he didn't dare to look for Jinchen again, so he went straight to Xingchen's tent.

"Xingchen, I heard that you are going to compete with Jinchen?"

"Hmm" Xingchen saw that his head hurt for a while, as long as there was a little rumor about anything, he was the first to know.

"Oh, then you have to be careful," Sang Yu casually found a place to sit down.

"Be careful of what?"

"Jinchen came with a goal this time"

"Oh~ what goal?"

"He wants to capture that rare spirit marten alive and give it to Sister Xian Ge as a gift" Sang Yu pretended to be mysterious, and the stars already knew it, "The spirit marten is extremely cunning, in the past, someone once brought dozens of people into the mountains to round up, but they all found nothing, let alone captured alive." If Jinchen can really catch one alive, my brother Shu Xingchen is willing to bow down."

"Okay, I'll listen to this, don't regret it then!"

"A gentleman's words, the horse is difficult to chase, how can he regret it?"

"It seems that Xingchen is really coming this time, forget it, I won't participate in the competition between you, haha" Sang Yu stood up and straightened his clothes, "Okay, I won't bother you anymore, I'm a little tired after running around for so long, let's rest first!" ”

"Slow down and don't send it" Xingchen replied to him with some amusement, when has this guy ever been tired?

Maybe there was something in his heart that he couldn't sleep, and the stars came out of the camp and wanted to blow the night breeze. saw that Jinchen hadn't turned off the lights yet, and couldn't help but walk towards Jinchen's tent.

"You're here" Jinchen heard footsteps, looked up and saw the stars that opened the curtain and entered.

"Well, seeing that you haven't turned off the lights yet, let's take a look" Xingchen responded lightly, Jinchen patted the soft collapse on the side, and motioned for him to sit down.

"Still reading, you are really attentive" Xingchen took a closer look, only to find that Jinchen's book was densely marked. If this were him, I'm afraid he would have gone crazy a long time ago.

"Well, my father asked me to finish reading this "The Art of War", and I will check it when I go back."

"Gu Shuai is really strict, if it were me, I wouldn't be able to stand it for a long time, and it was you" Xingchen deliberately let his tone have a hint of luck, and Jinchen glanced at him, "Are you praising me?" ”

"Of course," Xingchen pouted.

"Is there anyone like you boasting?" Jinchen rolled up the book, looking like he was going to use it as a weapon. Xingchen secretly said that it was not good, and hurriedly hid ten meters away, "Jinchen, we can't be so violent."

Seeing him like this, Jinchen suddenly laughed, "I know."

"Jinchen, don't watch too late, go to bed early, you have to spring hunt tomorrow morning" Xingchen said while deliberately yawning, "You don't have to send me, you may have sat for a long time without moving, alas, you forgot who you were when you read the book" Seeing Jinchen leaning to get up, Xingchen hurriedly waved his hand and walked towards the outside of the tent.

Jinchen smiled helplessly, this guy is duplicitous, obviously he cares about him, but he still wants to pretend to be heartless. He patted his numb legs, held the oil lamp, moved to the bed, and lay down before turning off the light and falling asleep, and it was a dreamless night.

Jinchen, who was woken up early in the morning, looked at the two culprits in front of him, and his cold face could freeze people to death.

"Ahem, we thought you got up early" Sang Yu stepped back, but Xingchen didn't move, "This is not like you, you didn't get up early in the past."

"It's not that my father is not around, I rarely have a lazy sleep, and I was woken up by you" Jinchen really wanted to beat them up, but after thinking about it, if there were no two of them, maybe he would have overslept.

"Okay, okay, don't forget that you two have another game today."

"How can you forget" Jinchen glanced at Sang Yu angrily, "However, if Xingchen loses, don't blame me for bullying the small" Jinchen patted Xingchen's shoulder quite arrogantly.

"It's not certain who wins"

"By the way, Jinchen, Xingchen said that if you can really catch the spirit mink, he will bow to the wind."

"Oh~ really?" Jinchen stared at Xingchen with interest, and the latter had no choice but to ignore the two of them.

There are several fast horses side by side on the hunting ground, divided into several vertical rows, the old emperor is sitting on the horse in the middle, and the dignified, handsome young man on the left hand side is undoubtedly the god of war prince Chu Hantian of Northern Chu, and the one on his left hand is the military general who was born and was favored by Wang Luyan.

The rest of the princes are all ready to go, because the old emperor has no sons-in-law, and there is no prince, so these princes are equal in status, and they are arranged in order of eldest and youngest. followed by various royal relatives and individual ministers, and Jinchen's biological mother is the daughter of the deceased King Anyang, that is, the county lord of the in-laws, so Jinchen is also half a royal family, so naturally it can be listed in the list of clansmen, and Xingchen Sangyu is on a par with Xingchen Sangyu.

With the old emperor's order, dozens of fast horses drove side by side and rushed straight to the dense forest.

Jinchen did not go with the flow of people, but entered the bamboo forest at the foot of Xishan alone, where no one had ever been. Legend has it that in this bamboo forest, there is something that everyone in the world wants to find - the blue-eyed spirit marten.

Not to mention its other functions, the medicinal value of this body can already make countless people in the world covet. It has lived in the deep forest for a long time and feeds on a hundred poisons, so this spirit fox can distinguish a hundred poisons and cure a hundred poisons.

It is inconvenient to ride a horse in the depths of the forest, so Jinchen simply rides a horse and throws arrows, and travels lightly. Along the way, the places you pass are well marked in case you get lost. The air around them gradually became humid and cool.

Jin Chen tightened his neckline and continued to walk forward, and soon entered the Xishan Bamboo Forest. Due to the miasma in the depths of the bamboo forest, Jin Chen took out a small medicine bottle from his sleeve, poured out two small pills and put them in his mouth, and swallowed them dryly.

Strange to say, this bamboo has the miraculous effect of purification, but why has it become a place where miasma gathers here? Jinchen couldn't understand this, but he didn't delve into it, covered with a veil soaked in potion, and walked straight into the depths of the bamboo forest.

"Sang Yu, have you seen Jinchen? I've been looking for him for a long time and I haven't found him."

"As soon as he entered the forest, he was gone. Tie must really go to find the spirit mink" Sang Yu saw that he was worried about Jinchen and frowned, and wanted to comfort him, so he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry too much, Jinchen never does things that he is not sure of."

"That's what you said" Although the stars responded like this, the heart was still hanging there, and it could not be put down.

Jinchen found a perfect position, arranged the pre-prepared traps, placed bait around him, and found a hiding place, waiting for the mink to throw himself into the net. This bait is not an ordinary bait, it is definitely a temptation that mink can't resist, and he has begged Feng Zixu for a long time to prepare for this.
