Chapter 195: Grassland Pursuit
I feel like I'm dozing in a daze, and it's already bright.
Xie Ruijiao opened his eyes and saw that Begonia was sleeping soundly on his arm. The water I brought was kept for drinking, and I was reluctant to use it to wash my face, and Begonia's face was left and right, as if she had grown two beards. Xie Ruijiao felt pity in his heart, and couldn't help grinning, this smile made people sober.
"Prince! The Tatar kings they moved! He Rui came over and said. Everyone quickly stood up. When I walked to the mound, I saw that there was a movement of people on the side of the King of Tatars.
"Chase!" Xie Ruijiao was decisive. You can't sleep overnight. He said to Ling Feng and Ling Yun: "After you two break off, look at them." When he was done, he got on his horse and chased after him.
After the prince left with a group of people, it was finally Ling Yun's turn to criticize his sister: "What are you doing when you come out to make a mess?" You are in danger, you are going to lose the crown princess, even if I am willing to compensate you to the crown prince, the prince will not want it......" Ling Shuang pouted. In front of my brother, I will always be a child.
"Don't get her, let's hurry up and follow, and see where there is a water source by the way." Haitang interrupted him with a smile and said, "In case you lose it, go to the water source to find it." The Tatar king, too, is going to find water to drink, but he will let us catch them. ”
Ling Feng smiled: "Yes, tracking the water source is indeed a way to find enemies in the wild. I can't see that the crown princess is already an old man! ”
Ling Feng and the other seven or eight people, not far or close, followed the team. Begonia took a closer look, and although the grass was no longer as vibrant as in summer and had begun to wither and yellow, it just exposed many wild vegetables growing on the grass. It's a pity that I knew that the pot came out, and Begonia thought regretfully.
"Whew!" Suddenly, I heard an arrow in my ear, and I saw a gray hare not far away fall to the ground. Ling Yun went over and dismounted to pick up the hare, hung it on the saddle, patted the saddle and smiled: "There are hares to eat tonight." ”
That's right, you can hit rabbits when you're idle, and the rabbits are the fattest at this time. A few people were looking around for rabbits, and Ling Feng suddenly found that the team was no longer visible. A cavalryman from Xuanfu Town smiled: "I can't lose it, there is only one river in the vicinity, and if you find the river, you will find people." ”
He Rui is also using this sentence to comfort the prince who can't find the crown princess: "The Tatar king and the crown princess can't be lost, there is only one river in the nearby area, and there will be people if you find the river!" ”
"Then hurry up and find the river!" The prince is not at ease. Alas, if you come out, you can't tie your belt......
Soon, the prince found several people skinning rabbits by the river. After chasing, everyone was also tired, and when they saw the river, they all went down to the river to wash their faces and drink water, and many soldiers also found a place far away from the princess, and they were not afraid of the cold water of the river, so they took off their clothes and went down to the river to bathe.
He Rui took a few people, took a bow and arrow, and hunted rabbits nearby, near the water, there were many animals, and after a while, he beat a lot of hares, and also got a lone yellow sheep. When he carried it back, He Rui couldn't close his mouth with a smile.
They went to the woods to find dead branches, roasted rabbits and sheep, and had a big meal. Begonia also picked up a dozen mushrooms in the woods, washed them and stuffed them into the stomachs of rabbits and sheep, and roasted them together on the fire.
Begonias don't have spices in their waist packs, but they do have a packet of salt. That's not enough! They had to quietly sprinkle it on their own barbecue, and with the salt, the barbecue suddenly became a delicacy.
Ling Xue has been completely convinced by the crown princess, no matter how perverted the environment is, she can make the food delicious, the crown princess is by no means an ordinary person! Yan Shiyi didn't want to talk, and waited for meat with all his heart.
"If we can't catch them up again, we'll go back. The dry food is almost gone, and more than 2,000 people can't live by hunting hares. Xie Ruizhu touched Begonia's dirty face. Ever since he saw Cheng Haitang, he felt that there was no need to chase the Tatar king at all, so he should turn around and go back to Xuanfu.
"We don't have many arrows each, and we can only fight hand-to-hand when we catch up all the way, which is really not a wise move." Xie Yuanyu nodded in agreement. Now he thinks that after Haitang shoots the enemy, it is a good way to find the arrow back.
He Rui looked at the flowing river and observed it for a long time. He suddenly said, "Our whereabouts may have been exposed, and if they also find this river, they should be downstream of us." Prince, we must beware of a Tatar attack tonight. ”
Xie Ruijiao took Begonia's hand and took her to the river to wash her hands and face. Xie Ruijiao patted her head: "Don't be afraid, you are short, I will be on top of you when you collapse." I'll keep watch tonight, and you can sleep at ease. ”
"Fool...... It should be me guarding you and letting you sleep. Anyway, no matter how energetic I sleep, I can't beat the Tatar king, can I? Haitang smiled, and was a little unconvinced: Am I short?
"Sleep, all of you, and they will keep watch." Shizi leaned against a tree, closed his eyes, and folded his arms in front of his chest, quietly interrupting them to flirt.
The voices all around had stopped, and the insects in the grass were singing happily, and the fierce bonfires were reflected on the half-asleep faces as if beating to the bubbling river.
"Chirp...... Chirp chirp chirp ......" A strange bird call woke everyone up, Xie Ruizhu just wanted to ask, only to see He Rui pursed his lips and shouted: "Chirp... Tweeted... Tweet ......"
Another voice came from across the river: "Chirp...... Tweet ......"
He Rui came over and explained: "Across the river is the territory of Warat. Just now the Waratians asked us who we were. I'm a courtier. Then they will understand that we are friends."
Cheng Haitang, who suddenly came to his senses, smiled and pushed Xie Ruijiao next to him, "Where is the son-in-law of Wara, we are not afraid!" ”
Xie Yuanyu secretly glanced at her, pretended not to hear, and turned his body to the other side: This woman is really a pot that can't be opened.
"Hurry up and get some more sleep!" Xie Ruijiao patted her cheek gently. Haitang twisted, and said with some embarrassment: "I want to ...... It's convenient to go...... "Xie Ruijiao's face was wrinkled, and there were a bunch of big men next to him, where is this convenient?
When Shuang'er heard this, she quickly stood up: "I'll accompany you to the woods, it's dark inside, and you can't see it." ”
Xie Ruijiao also stood up and walked with them to the edge of the woods. Shuang'er went in first to take a look, and there was no problem, so she beckoned to Begonia. Before Begonia went in, Xie Ruijiao reminded her again to hurry up. Ling Yun also walked over, with the crown prince, with his back to the woods, looking around vigilantly.
Begonia was walking out from behind the bushes when she finished her work, and just after walking a few steps, suddenly there was a sound of branches behind her. A man strangled Begonia's neck from behind with his arm, and the cold dagger pressed against her chin, Begonia couldn't help but scream.
"Ahh
