"Boom—"

About a quarter of an hour later, Qi Ziyan walked a long way away with Mu Xiaochu in his arms, and in a clearing, he put down the person in his arms, hugged her waist tightly, and looked at the cave behind him that had just collapsed.

"Yan?" Mu Xiaochu's mouth opened wide, looking at the cave where they were still staying one moment and collapsed the next, and his heart was indescribably shocked.

"Don't be afraid, it's fine." Qi Ziyan fixed Mu Xiaochu's head with his big hand and comforted him.

At this time, the rain was still falling, and the thunder was still ringing, but nothing could compare to the shock in my heart.

In the end, there was no more baggage, and they didn't look for the cave again, but left here and found an open place to stay.

Fortunately, the rain stopped soon.

Qi Ziyan used internal force to dry the clothes on the two of them, and as for the fire fold, the wood was damp first, so naturally it was not needed.

There was only a fire fold and a dagger left in the whole body, and nothing else.

On the way over, they all ate barbecue and drank some water, but because there was no water hose, water became a problem.

At night, when the moon was thick, the two snuggled under a tree and counted the stars.

Just when Mu Xiaochu was dazed, he was woken up by a piercing scream, and as the sound got closer and closer, he saw a monkey running over.

Looking in, it turned out to be the one before, but the hair on its body was a little more curly, and it obviously didn't escape the rain before.

Behind it was a giant python, about the thickness of an adult's arm from a distance, with a bright red body and some green patterns on its body.

The color on this snake is really rare. Mu Xiaochu thought.

Seeing that the monkey was getting closer and closer to them, Qi Ziyan also held the dagger in his hand, and held Mu Xiaochu's hand tightly with the other hand, looking nervous.

Mu Xiaochu couldn't help but get nervous.

"Squeak-" The monkey called a few times, his dark eyes full of joy.

Then he rushed and ran behind Qi Ziyan.

Qi Ziyan ignored the monkey, but the snake that was waiting to crawl over.

"Sisi-" The snake stopped when it was only a meter away from Qi Ziyan, kept spitting out the letter, and stared straight at him with inverted triangular eyes.

Qi Ziyan said in a cold voice: "Look at Xiao Chu, if she has a loss, I will pick your skin, I know you can understand, squeak if you agree, otherwise get out of me now!" ”

"Squeak-" As soon as Qi Ziyan's voice fell, the monkey behind him screamed weakly.

After receiving the answer, Qi Ziyan turned his head to Mu Xiaochu and said, "Wait for me here, I'll be back soon." ”

As he spoke, the corner of his eye kept staring at the snake opposite.

"I see, Yan, you have to be careful." Mu Xiaochu Road.

The snake seemed to be impatient, and was the first to rush with its fanged head open.

When he was only a fist away from Qi Ziyan, he held a dagger in front of him.

The snake bit on the dagger, and with a flick of Qi Ziyan's arm, one of the snake's fangs was cut off.

Qi Ziyan was surprised by the sharpness of the dagger, but it was only for a moment, and he soon began to take the initiative to attack.

The snake's body kept writhing, and after missing a tooth, its temperament became more irritable, and with blood in its mouth, it continued to attack Qi Ziyan, and the bright red on its body became even more bright red at this moment.

When the snake was about to bite, Qi Ziyan took a sideways step and stabbed the snake's scales, instantly dyeing the red with the same color.

Mu Xiaochu on the side flashed red in his eyes when he saw the bright blood, but it quickly disappeared into the air.

The snake seemed to know that Qi Ziyan was not easy to deal with, and when he attacked next, the snake's head turned sharply and came to Mu Xiaochu.

Looking at the snake that was getting closer and closer to her, Mu Xiaochu's eyes widened.

"Xiao Chu—"

With Qi Ziyan's voice in his ears and a snake head getting closer and closer in front of him, Mu Xiaochu didn't know where he got the courage from, so he suddenly pulled out the hairpin on his head and stabbed it hard at the snake's eyes.

"Puff-" Blood spurted onto Mu Xiaochu's face.

The snake was injured and slipped to the ground, twisting and turning, and its uninjured eyes stared at Mu Xiaochu viciously, intending to attack again.

Qi Ziyan, who was shocked into a sweat, threw out the dagger in his hand coldly, which happened to be seven inches stabbed in the snake.

Followed by Qi Ziyan's rushing figure, she held Mu Xiaochu, who was already blindfolded, in her arms, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, it's all over, it's all fine." ”

I didn't get an answer for a long time, and as for the monkey who had been hiding behind Mu Xiaochu since the snake came, he was kicked out by Qi Ziyan.

"Squeak-"

After the monkey barked, he stayed where he was honestly and did not leave.

The monkey's cry woke Mu Xiaochu, she raised her head and blinked her eyes, "Yan, you can't open your eyes." ”

Qi Ziyan leaned closer, wiped the snow beads next to her eyes with her sleeve, and slowly spoke, "It's okay now." ”

"Hmm." Mu Xiaochu nodded, and then looked at the dead snake not far away, "Yan is so powerful, he actually killed such a big snake." ”

Qi Ziyan didn't answer, but blamed himself: "This time it's me who is not good, and Xiao Chu was almost injured." ”

Mu Xiaochu threw away the hairpin in his hand, hugged Qi Ziyan's waist and said, "Aren't I already fine." ”

Qi Ziyan didn't speak, just hugged her tightly, God knows how worried he was when he found out that the snake's final target was Xiao Chu, but fortunately, it was okay in the end, otherwise he would definitely blame himself to death.

"Squeak-" Seeing that the situation was better, the monkey on the side whispered, but in exchange for Qi Ziyan's cold and piercing eyes.

If it wasn't for the monkey to attract the snake, how could what happened just now, the most hateful thing is that it actually hid behind Xiao Chu at the moment of crisis, and the more he thought about it, the heavier the cold around Qi Ziyan's body became.

The monkey shrank his head and did not dare to step forward, and finally came to the dead snake, pulled out Qi Ziyan's dagger, and walked over with small steps with it.

When he was one step away from Qi Ziyan, he threw the step over, and then left by himself.

"What a white-eyed wolf!" Mu Xiaochu commented.

Qi Ziyan bent down to pick up the dagger, as if he had forgotten what he said before about picking monkey skins.

Holding Mu Xiaochu's waist and coming to a water source, the blood stains on the two of them were cleaned up, and Qi Ziyan made her a wooden hairpin to fix her hair.

The previous hairpin was thrown away.

They couldn't go back to that place before, and they came to another place to rest.

In a cave, Qi Ziyan looked at the person who was in his arms, his deep and charming eyes were full of intoxicating tenderness, but when he thought of what happened just now, he was confused.

Regarding Mu Xiaochu's actions, he didn't know whether to be happy or uncomfortable.

That's it, it's going to be solved anyway.

About an hour later, the moon hung high outside the cave, and the breeze blew, and the grass at the entrance of the cave swayed.

Suddenly, a soft light appeared.

Qi Ziyan was shocked, and took Mu Xiaochu, who was already asleep, out of the cave again.

And the light disappeared after they left.

Qi Ziyan couldn't help but sweat in his heart.

That should be the light worm that the Great Elder said before.

A type of insect that appears in a cave and glows with light, and relies on this light to attract insects or people around it. If curiosity walked over, waiting for them, fortunately some injuries, unfortunately, the possibility of life were left.

He had carefully inspected the cave before, and only after confirming that it was safe, but this time because of the snake, and it was a little late, he only checked the cave roughly, but he didn't expect that there was a light insect hiding in it!

It's really thrilling.

As long as he didn't get close to the light, it was basically fine, because of the light insects, which moved very slowly, but to be on the safe side, he still found a place to rest outside.

Qi Ziyan was helpless at the moment.

I always feel that he should be handy with everything in his life, but just in the mountains behind Murong's house, these things are things he has never seen in his previous life, and it seems that he still missed a lot in his previous life.

However, it also strengthened his determination to become stronger.

The next day, in the prince's mansion, in the study.

After hearing that Qi Ziyan and Mu Xiaochu had disappeared together for a long time, Di Chulin couldn't help but think deeply, and said to the person kneeling below: "How long have they disappeared?" ”

"It's been four days since I went back to the prince." The man below replied.

"Why did it take so long to report?" The prince's voice was neither salty nor light, but the secret guard who told him below was in a cold sweat.

"It's a dereliction of duty on the part of a subordinate." He explained, "When the regent came back, he said that he was sick and recuperating, and who would have thought that he would let people pretend to leave the regent's palace. "And you didn't say you were going to focus on the Regent's Palace.

"Enough!" The prince interrupted him, his eyes cold, "Go down and receive the punishment." ”

"Yes." Although the people who came were unwilling, when they thought of the prince's method of punishing people, they still accepted their fate and went down to receive the punishment.

After the secret guard left, the prince kept playing with the teacup in his hand, "Qi Ziyan is gone, and Mu Xiaochu is gone, where did you go?" Hehe-I feel like things are going to get more and more interesting, the new head of Murong Mansion. ”

As soon as the words fell, he heard a bang, and the teacup in his hand shattered into powder.

The prince wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and his tone was flat, "Come on, prepare the horse." ”

About half an hour later, in the Murong Mansion, in a pavilion.

The little servant said, "Return to the Great Elder, the prince asks to see." ”

The Great Elder, who was drinking tea, put down the teacup and said in surprise: "What did you say, the prince asked to see?" ”

"Yes, the prince is outside the door at this time."

"Second brother, what do you say the prince is doing at this time?" The Great Elder didn't reply to the little guy's words, but asked the Second Elder beside him.

The second elder said, "I guess it's trying to win us over." ”

The Great Elder said, "That's it, no matter what it is, let's invite the prince in first." ”

"Yes." ”

After a cup of tea, the prince was brought to the pavilion by the little servant.

Before he could walk in, the prince coughed a few times.

At this sound, they remembered the prince's weak body, and couldn't help but care: "The prince is unwell, so it's better to ask the doctor in the house to come and take a look." ”

The prince walked in, waved his hand and said, "Thank you for the kindness of the Great Elder, but the Imperial Doctor has already seen it, and it is all an old problem." ”

"It's that the old man didn't think it through, how can the doctor in the palace compare to the imperial doctor in the palace."

"It's also that this palace is weak, and I can't stand it when I go out." After saying that, he coughed a few more times.

After the prince sat down, the second elder asked, "I don't know what the prince is talking about?" ”
