Chapter 8: Winter Hunting
The Earl and the Lady were amazed at their acquaintance, and Wilson excitedly talked about their trip to the same boat, and said that the Chinese pay attention to fate, "ten years of repair, the same boat", and said that they also took the same train from London to France, which was even more fateful. Finally, looking at the confused eyes of the counts and the duels, he introduced to them, "The earl doesn't know that this Miss Zhang is the sister of Mr. Zhang Jiaxuan, vice president of the head office of the Bank of China!" ”
The count's stiff expression finally cracked, and the corners of his mouth pulled into a smile, but the countess's expression changed three times, indescribable.
Shen Mengxi and Wilson found a sofa and sat down.
"In two months, I will go to China again to take full charge of Dongyin's business in China, and I will ask Miss Zhang to say a lot of kind words in front of Brother Ling!" Wilson said to Shen Mengxi in Chinese.
"Oh, congratulations on Mr. Wilson's ascension! It just so happened that I also booked a ferry ticket two months later, but I didn't expect the fate to be so profound, and please take care of me along the way. Shen Mengxi smiled and nodded.
"That's great! Once you arrive in Shanghai, please treat your brothers and sisters to Western food! ”
"Where, where is it, when you return to China, how can you break the bank, and then ask Mr. Wilson to appreciate his face, and let our brothers and sisters be the host."
Wilson excitedly went to tell the Earl that this business would go much smoother with the help of Miss Zhang's brother, and the Earl was also very happy, and raised his glass to toast Shen Mengxi.
On the second day of hunting, Shen Mengxi changed into the dark green small size hunting suit that the countess specially found for her, combed her hair into a ponytail, and the whole person was heroic, Wilson gave a thumbs up and praised, and even the earl nodded in praise. Shen Mengxi shrugged with a smile: "If I waste my wife's beautiful hunting suit, I won't know anything!" ”
Everyone laughed.
"And will you ride a horse?" Wilson asked, "If not, I can teach you!" ”
"Luckily, I can ride a horse." Shen Mengxi took the reins handed by Frank and took a chestnut mare.
The Earl rode a horse with his entourage and a few German terriers to take the lead in the depths of the woods, Wilson followed closely, Frank did not follow, but stood closely by Shen Mengxi's side, and several servants carried the cage into the forest, and the cage contained more than ten foxes of various colors, which made Shen Mengxi feel compassion in his heart.
The countess beckoned Shen Mengxi to get on the horse together, and she was going to watch them hunt foxes in a while.
Shen Mengxi really didn't want to go into the forest, but it seemed that it was not safe to stay in front of the hut alone, so he had to get on the horse and ride slowly. Frank followed him, didn't see the knife he sent, was a little anxious, leaned closer and whispered, "Why don't you bring that knife?" ”
"Oh, it's a little big, it's not easy to carry." Can Shen Mengxi say that it is more convenient to put it in a more convenient place?
"When you're hunting, you can't bring any weapons too much, and you see my mother, who is carrying the latest American Browning pistol."
"Oh? That's a good gun! ”
A whistle in the distance, several cages opened, a group of foxes sped towards the woods, several horses galloped after each other, and several gunshots, accompanied by a few hearty laughter, resounded through the woods.
Then, gunshots rang out continuously, and several servants returned with foxes. Shen Mengxi couldn't bear to look at those dead foxes, so she turned her face away, and the countess glanced at her with a smile and looked into the depths of the forest.
Shen Mengxi was not sure whether the countess had kidnapped herself to the hunting ground to scare her and drive her out of Germany, or whether she was looking for an opportunity to kill herself, after all, accidental killing during hunting was inevitable.
Looking at Frank's nervousness, and the countess's stubborn and assertive personality, Shen Mengxi didn't dare to leave anything to chance, thinking that she would give up her previous decision because of Wilson's words.
Shen Mengxi seems to be leisurely, but in fact, the alarm bell is loud. She slept in the castle last night, and after the lights went out, she quietly observed the manor with a thermal imaging camera by the window, and put a siren at the door of the window, before she carefully slept at the end of the bed, put the bullet on the chamber, and put it under the pillow. I woke up twice in the night, and I made another observation.
At this moment, a servant came running in a panic and reported to the Countess that the Count and Mr. Wilson had been attacked by two brown bears in the forest, which was very dangerous. When the Countess heard this, she ordered all her servants to come to the rescue with all their weapons, and she herself rode her horse and followed her into the forest.
Where can Frank take care of Shen Mengxi, and leave with his mother.
Shen Mengxi couldn't judge whether the news was true or false, and after weighing it for three seconds, she decided to follow Frank, so that her mother would not kill their savior in front of her son.
A path in the forest winds far away, there are messy footprints on the snow, there are people, horses, and dogs, Shen Mengxi rode a horse and followed Frank's mother and son, walked for about twenty minutes, heard a bear roar in front of him, followed by intensive gunshots, when they arrived, Shen Mengxi saw a big bear covered in blood, slumped on the snow, snorting and breathing, and looked at a bear that fell to the ground not far away.
A bodyguard slammed and shot the she-bear in the head, bursting out a bloody flower, and the she-bear was silent.
Ten meters away, the Earl and Wilson each fell under a large tree, and three servants also fell on the snow, and several of them did not know whether they were alive or dead. The three bodyguard servants on the periphery were injured to varying degrees, and the five or six servants who had just arrived all rushed to the earl, Shen Mengxi dismounted and ran to Wilson's side, as well as the pulse, the barrel and the temperature. Left arm fractured, head blows, temporary shock.
Shen Mengxi quickly found a branch and fixed Wilson's arm, during the healing process, Wilson woke up and vomited, Shen Mengxi pressed the body he wanted to sit up, "You are now concussive, don't move." ”
Wilson, who was sprayed with painkillers, was calm and said gratefully, "Thank you very much." ”
The earl's back was touched by a bear's paw, three deep blood marks, miserable, he lay on the stretcher tied into branches, glanced at Wilson, saw that Shen Mengxi had already done something, and raised his eyebrows. The Countess asked Shen Mengxi, "Miss Zhang has studied medicine?" ”
"In our course, there is some basic medical knowledge, and it is not a problem to do some cardiopulmonary resuscitation and first aid." Shen Mengxi glanced at the countess with a smile, then looked at the count and said, "If the count can trust me, I can give you some medicine to prevent wound infection in time and stop bleeding and muscle building." Of course, you can also go to the hospital right now. ”
The Earl glanced at Wilson again, and despite Madame's obstruction, he said to Shen Mengxi, "Then trouble Ms. Zhang!" ”
Shen Mengxi asked everyone to step back, she uncovered the blanket covering the earl, and took out a small bottle of Yunnan Baiyao spray from her backpack, "Mr. Earl, it may hurt a little at first, you bear with it." ”
Hearing the Count say that she knew, she sprayed the bloody wound, the Count let out a scream, the Countess pulled out a pistol and aimed it at Shen Mengxi and fired, Frank pushed her arm, the bullet hit the top of the tree where Shen Mengxi was squatting, the snow on the tree fell, the white medicine spray fell to the ground, Shen Mengxi quickly shot out, and a big black five-four hit the countess's eyebrows, "It turns out that the so-called nobles are specially repaid for saving lives in this way!" ”
Several bodyguards raised their shotguns at Shen Mengxi at the same time, and Wilson was so anxious that he shouted: "She was saving the Earl just now, she was saving the Earl!" ”
"Victoria... Put down the gun, she's saving me...", the Count lay on the ground, intermittently stopped, his wound experiencing an initial stinging pain that gradually eased the numbness, and he ordered the bodyguard to lower the shotgun.
"You inferior species, dare to put a gun to my head!" The countess's eyes were on fire, and she also pointed a gun at Shen Mengxi's head, screaming.
"There is no high or low race, and there is a high or low moral character. Hehe, you weren't afraid of hitting the Count just now. If I could turn back time, I would watch you drown in the river. Shen Mengxi had never seen such a stubborn and ungrateful person in his life, and seriously suspected that she was an inferior product of a close relative.
"Victoria! Can't you understand me? The Count was furious.
"Ahh The Countess yelled hysterically, without the nobility and reserve she had before, and Frank hugged her tightly behind her, calling out to her mother in panic.
The countess's eyes were bloodshot, full of hatred, her fingers had pulled the trigger, Shen Mengxi was frightened with a quick spray of her left hand, and her body was tilted to the right, all of this was just what happened in a second, the countess shouted before she fell, she had fallen to the ground, and she didn't know who was going on. A bullet grazed Shen Mengxi's ear and hit the tree behind him.
"Enough!" Shen Mengxi's left ear was buzzing, her head smelled of gunpowder, she held a gun in one hand, a spray in the other, leaned against the tree, and said loudly and angrily: "I don't know why I am insane to save you!" The rotten kindness of the Chinese is really superfluous! The Farmer and the Snake! Zhongshan wolf! Deserve!! ”
Wilson sat on the stretcher, stretched out his hand to Shen Mengxi, and said softly, "Zhang, come to me!" Come! ”
Shen Mengxi shook his head vigorously.
The Count sighed, "I'm sorry. ”
"Mr. Wilson had a fractured left arm and a slight concussion, and Mr. Wilson's wound was not infected, and there were places where stitches were needed, and the Countess was only briefly unconscious. Go to the hospital and wish you both a speedy recovery! ”
"Sister Xiaoyu!" Frank suddenly screamed, Xiaoyu was the nickname given to Shen Mengxi by Helen, who was roughly Chinese, and Frank also called, he sensitively understood Shen Mengxi's intentions, and couldn't help but call her.
"Frank, you're a really good boy, and I'm glad I met you. Now that you are an adult, you should think carefully and take them and the servants to the nearest hospital. I'm not going with you! Goodbye Frank! ”
"No!" Frank couldn't stop crying.
"Let's go! Help matters! ”
Frank had no choice but to leave quickly with everyone, and before Wilson was carried away, he anxiously shouted to her: "Zhang, Zhang, you are crazy!" I protect you, I can protect you! ......”
Shen Mengxi waved his hand and motioned for the stretcher bearer to leave quickly.
Shen Mengxi climbed to the tree, watched everyone walk away, she counted the number of people, and brought out a total of twelve servant bodyguards, except for the three who died on the ground, all followed. She looked around the binoculars again, went down the tree, and picked up the bottle of white medicine spray.
The snow was a mess, and the smell of blood was strong.
The three people who died, there were no guns on them, a few ordinary knives, and Shen Mengxi was not interested. There were two bears, one large and one small, and there were a few foxes and hares scattered on the ground, and the most tragic were the four German hunting terriers, all of which died, some were torn apart, some were flattened, some were shot and flew into the distance, and the last one was not far from where the earl fell, and his stomach was opened by the bear's paws, and his stomach flowed all over the ground.
Shen Mengxi sighed and was a loyal dog.
It is estimated that someone will come to collect the corpse and pull away the prey soon, Shen Mengxi did not touch these, discerned the direction, and decided to go out of the woods first, I don't know if any wild beasts smelled blood and rushed over, they should all be gone at this time.
After walking for twenty minutes, I was almost out of the woods. She looked at the castle with a telescope, it was empty, and the cars were gone.
Relieved, as soon as he got out of the woods, he took out the car from the space and left the area as soon as possible, wherever he went.
only heard a "bang" gunshot, and Shen Mengxi fell to the ground in response.
