Chapter 134: Fierce Beasts
Outside the tent, the mountain wind suddenly whimpered and howled, and the sound was like the roar of wild beasts all over the mountain, and in an instant, the women with weaker foundations fell to the ground, and even the remaining sergeants couldn't help but stagger.
"King, princess, what's the matter? The folk girl had never seen such a strong wind, and it was scary just to hear the wind, as if it was ......"
Zhong Xiu, who was so shocked that he and Su Yue were both shocked and sat on the ground, was already frightened, and his big crystal eyes were already full of tears, but he didn't dare to let it flow out as if he was trapped in his eyes, and people couldn't help but feel pity.
"Xiu'er, don't be afraid, it's okay for us to hide in the tent, there are not only so many defenders outside, but also the medical immortals, even if it is really a fierce beast in the mountains that runs out to make trouble, it can't hurt us."
Hearing that the earth-shattering voice of Shicai was not just the sound of the wind, but clearly mixed with the howl of countless false howling wolves, Feng Huanling calmed down in an instant, and personally pulled Zhong Xiu up and sat on the small couch next to him.
If Long Jingming just wanted to use those fierce beasts to deal with Long Yucang, Feng Huanling was not as worried as before, not to mention that there were so many guards around the prince, just his "carving insect skills" must be more than enough to deal with those beasts.
But although reason is so, the inexplicable anxiety in her heart can't be swept away, so she protects Zhong Xiu in her arms, in fact, she is also looking for a "reliance" for herself.
Zhilan helped Su Yue up and returned to her master, as soon as Yushu left, there were only four of them left in the tent, but there were clouds guarding outside, and she had a bottom in her heart, even if there were sporadic fierce beasts breaking in, she was confident that she could protect her master.
The wind continued to rage, and although the howl of the fierce beast was not as earth-shattering as the initial roar, the successive screams and long roars were more and more piercing, this time even Zhong Xiu could hear that it was not only the sound of the wind, but also faintly heard the screams of the guards outside one after another, as if the enemy was on the verge of a great enemy, and the petite she had already shrunk into Feng Huanling's arms and trembled with fright.
At that time, there was already a mess outside the tent, but when I saw hundreds of fierce beasts of all kinds, as if frightened by something, they poured down from the mountain like a tide, and as if they were deliberately driven by something, most of them rushed to the rest tent on the outer edge of the hunting paddock.
Although the soldiers left behind were all well-trained Imperial Guards, and even many of them had gone to the battlefield to kill the enemy, how had they ever seen such an army of fierce beasts? Inevitably, I was a little at a loss, so I could only step forward and tear apart those strangely red-eyed beasts.
Although Feng Huanling in the tent could not see the situation outside, the smell of blood was constantly sent in by the strong wind, and the heart-rending screams of the people attacked by the ferocious beasts were especially thrilling and terrifying to hear in the dimness.
"There should have been a special person to govern this Qinglong Mountain, how could these beasts suddenly go crazy for no reason?" Feng Huanling's heart became more and more uneasy, and a mysterious shadow suddenly flashed in his mind, and he raised his voice and asked Cangyun outside the tent door, "But there are demons doing it?" ”
Cang Yun, who was urging the mana to force back the fierce beasts, responded: "Yes, I just came here when I noticed that there was something wrong in Qinglong Mountain, but these are just ordinary beasts that have gone crazy, and the really powerful ones are still hiding in the mountains." ”
Feng Huanling's heart beat wildly when he heard it, and he asked in a tight voice: "Then the prince ...... him?"
With another muffled thunder explosion, a tiger roaring and a dragon's roar came from the mountain, and the Qingyue soared into the sky, and then there was a tragic cry of pain like a man and a beast, and the loud sound shook the entire Qinglong Mountain as if it were shaking.
"It seems that the Xiaotian Sword is powerful, brother and sister, don't worry, it is more than enough to deal with the demonic beast with the ability of the junior brother."
Cangyun's voice was already a little more relaxed, obviously he had great confidence in Long Yucang, and he didn't put the fierce beast that was still raging in front of him in his eyes, anyway, he only needed to keep the people in the tent safe and sound, and how others had nothing to do with him, after all, those Imperial Forest Soldiers were not given for nothing.
Nangong An personally led the elite of the Royal Forest Army to protect the holy car into the mountain to hunt, leaving the deputy general around him to guard the women, these horses have gradually regained their calm after the initial panic, although those fierce beasts are brave but have no wisdom at all, so they were soon killed or forced back by the Royal Forest Army, and the camp area finally slowly recovered from the chaos and screams.
In this way, the unusual howl of strange beasts in the mountains and forests became even more terrifying, sounding like countless fierce beasts were tearing each other apart, and as if it was just one or two abnormal giant beasts fighting for their lives, and from time to time there would be a sound of shaking mountains.
"The saint is back!"
I don't know who shouted such a voice first, which caused the generals who were still fighting with the remnants of the beast herd to follow the prestige, and sure enough, they saw Lang Zhong Ling Nangong Anye personally escorting Emperor Xuan and his party back.
The reinforcements returned, and the remaining dozens of mad beasts were cleaned up before the arrival of the royal car, and the frightened women trembled and knelt down to welcome the holy driver.
Feng Huanling was naturally among them, but her gaze only hurriedly swept over the dazzling golden armor Long Jingming, and kept looking for the moon-white figure in the team.
Xu was aware of Princess Cheyue's gaze, and Long Jingming took the initiative to say: "King Cheyue and I have been scattered by the beasts, if you don't return to the camp in advance, I'm afraid you will still be trapped in the mountains." ”
Scattered by the herd? Still in the mountains?!
The heart that had always been carried tightened suddenly, and Feng Huanling only felt that it was dark in front of him and almost fainted, but finally secretly gritted his teeth and survived.
After arranging for the deputy general to wait to count the personnel, Nangong Anye solemnly knelt in front of the royal car and said, "The minister invites himself to enter the mountain again to meet the prince." ”
Feng Huanling immediately came out of the crowd, and said in surprise: "The courtiers invite themselves to enter the mountain with Lord Nangong, and please ask for the grace of the saint." ”
Although the sky was as dark as ink, there were already palace people who lit the wind lanterns, and Long Jingming, who was dressed in gold armor, was reflected by the orange lights, and his face was uncertain, and he muttered for a long time before he said: "Nangong Aiqing should indeed go into the mountains to find the emperor's uncle, but the princess is a weak woman, and she is afraid that it will be a problem to protect herself in the mountains and forests where fierce beasts are raging, so it is better to stay in the camp and wait for news." ”
After that, he waved his hand and arranged for Nangong Anye to lead a team of imperial forest troops into the mountains and forests, while the others were sent back to their respective camps, and they were not allowed to leave without permission.
Seeing that everyone was almost scattered, only Princess Cheyue remained in place, Long Jingming smiled and said, "If the princess has anything to do, just go to the main tent with me to talk about it." ”
Feng Huanling only hesitated for a moment, so he answered "yes" and asked Su Yue to take Zhong Xiu back to the tent, and only Zhilan entered the imperial tent with him.
Cangyun was originally "uninvited", so Emperor Xuan had already cast a spell to hide in the shadows before he appeared, and Feng Huanling dared to enter the emperor's tent because he knew that he would guard in secret.
When Long Jingming returned to the imperial tent, some palace people stepped forward to give him a light armor, but he didn't want to be blocked and waved out, and finally even Miao Shangshan, the chief supervisor of the internal prison, retreated to guard outside the tent, Zhilan looked at Feng Huanling hesitantly, and finally had to obey the emperor's order to retreat.
Outside, the wind was still howling mixed with the sound of terrifying beasts, but in the imperial tent, where only the two of them were silently facing each other, they fell into a strange silence.
In the end, Feng Huanling couldn't help but hang his head in his heart to avoid Long Jingming's gaze, and first broke the silence and said, "Dare to ask the Holy Lord, how could the beasts on this Qinglong Mountain suddenly go crazy?" ”
"The princess is a strange question, how can these beasts suddenly go crazy, and how can I know?" Long Jingming squeezed out a light chuckle from his nose, "Could it be that the princess thinks that if I am as capable as your husband, I can even control the mountains and wild birds and beasts?" ”
He said "your husband", not the prince or the emperor's uncle, and in the case of the two of them alone, Feng Huanling couldn't help but be wary of it, but she still didn't vomit unpleasantly when she should say, "I may not know these side kung fu, but the courtiers remember that in the holy harem, there is still a beast master from afar." ”
The beasts went crazy and other abnormalities, making it difficult for people not to think of the cold incense sent by the Tiger Roaring Country.
Long Jingming's eyebrows were a little colder and more awe-inspiring than the cold wind outside, but the weird smile on his lips was a little deeper, "The princess refers to the cold talent of Qingxinzhai?" She has always been trapped in the place equivalent to the cold palace, even if she really has any ability, how can she control the beasts on Qinglong Mountain from afar? I know that the princess is too nervous about the comfort of the imperial uncle, but with the ability of the imperial uncle, how can she be hurt by the little beast? The princess was too worried...... Or is the princess not trusting King Cheyue enough? ”
For the dignified emperor who opened his eyes and said nonsense, Feng Huanling only sneered, and only responded to his provocation: "If it is just an ordinary beast, my prince will naturally not look at it, but if someone with ill intentions intends to design harm, no matter how powerful his ability is, it will inevitably be impossible to prevent it after all." Who would have thought that what seemed like an ordinary hunt would suddenly turn out like this? ”
The implication is that if Long Yucang has some mistake because of this, Long Jingming can be deduced that everything is just a hunting accident, after all, who would have expected that the fierce beast would suddenly go crazy? So it's clear that it's all his conspiracy!
Hearing this, Long Jingming didn't laugh angrily, "Princess Cheyue Feng, your courage is really getting bigger and bigger, and now you dare to sneer at me in person, do you really think that I don't dare to touch you?" ”
Feng Huanling, who was still kneeling on the ground, said humbly: "The courtiers don't dare, the courtiers just think that King Cheyue, who has no desire to fight with the world, should not be forced to calculate like this." ”
Long Jingming snorted coldly and said, "If he is really still the King of Cheyue who has no quarrel with the world, how can anyone have the leisure to calculate against him?" Since the princess is a rare and transparent person, can't she understand why I can't tolerate him? Even you can't tolerate other women around him, so should I be free to indulge a man who dares to covet my deceased wife? ”
For the sake of the "deceased wife"?
Feng Huanling couldn't help but sneer, Long Jingming would be so shameless, and took out the fact that Long Yucang had loved Yan Wushuang to provoke her, the princess, which really made her a little unexpected, but more still felt ridiculous.
