Chapter 30: When the road is uneven, you can't pull out the sword

"General Long, Lian asked you to check last night's vision, can you get the result?"

Emperor Ye Ying looked at him in a line, and asked.

"Don't be ashamed, because the vision came too suddenly and appeared in a short time, so I didn't find anything!"

General Long Ba arched his hand, paused for a few moments, and said, "But what is certain is that the location where the vision appears is not far from our Ye Zhiguo!"

"Hmm!"

Emperor Ye Ying praised it, and was tasting wine and admiring the moon with several concubines at that time, and happened to see a vision in the sky, so he let Long Ba secretly track it down.

I thought to myself, is there going to be a saint coming to earth in my country, or something else going on?

"Your Majesty, the old minister believes that there is a vision in the sky over the country of Ye, which is a good omen, indicating that this autumn hunting competition will be a complete success!"

Prime Minister Wen Song stood up and used the kung fu of slapping sycophants to the fullest.

"Haha, the prime minister is still reasonable!"

Emperor Ye Ying laughed and looked very happy.

This year, every time there is an autumn hunting competition, there are always some officials who oppose it, saying that it disturbs the people and hurts the money, destroys the environment, etc., which makes the emperor Ye Ying very annoyed, and it just so happens that last night's sky vision appeared, making him think that it was a good omen from the sky, indicating that something good happened in Ye Zhiguo.

Now I am even more convinced that the autumn hunting competition is right and a manifestation of national prestige to the hostile forces.

"Your Majesty, everyone has arrived, when will we leave?"

Long Ba counted the number of people in advance and reported to him.

"Okay, now that we're all done, let's get started!"

Emperor Ye Ying nodded, fantasizing that this harvest would be the same as that time, and he would be able to hunt a demon beast.

Next, all the people moved in one direction like ants.

Ye Feng and Li Mu walked in the rear, with only a few family members with them, and as for General Huwei, he had to protect the emperor with the other three generals, so they were not together.

"Uncle, where is the autumn hunting competition going to be?"

Ye Feng asked, he had been busy with other things before, and he didn't know much about the game.

"The location chosen for each race is different, but this time it is said to be a red leaf forest!"

Li Mu thought for a moment and said, "Because there are many maple trees in that forest, some people named it: Red Leaf Forest!"

"I see!" Ye Feng was silent, always feeling that the name was weird.

"You don't have to worry, the Red Leaf Forest belongs to the territory of our country, and there are some hunters who come and go all year round, and there are no powerful beasts, so don't worry about safety!"

Li Mu said again, always putting his nephew's safety first.

"Huh!"

Ye Feng smiled, sometimes, the most terrifying thing is not the beast, but the human beings themselves.

"Huh, the road under our feet?"

Ye Feng walked and found that the road surface had changed, all of them were paved with shiny stone sand, and if he looked closely, the sand and the underground soil were not completely solidified, which meant that the road had just been paved for a short time.

"Alas, the emperor has a habit of traveling, that is, to pave the road first, as you can see, this road is newly paved not long ago, and you can go directly to the red leaf forest!"

Li Mu sighed, obviously very dissatisfied with the emperor's approach, "In fact, there are many old roads, you can get to the red leaf forest, but you have to make a few detours, in order to save time, the emperor wanted to arrive early, so he sent people to build this long road a few months in advance, and this road under our feet was actually the crops of the people before!"

"The people's crops?" Ye Feng was a little dumbfounded, he only knew that the emperor was mediocre, loved to build palaces, and ignored the government and so on, but he didn't expect that he had reached the step of seriously damaging the interests of the people.

Crops are the foundation of people's survival, and without food, what will people eat.

In his previous life, no matter how arbitrary and domineering he was, he had never done anything to bully the defenseless people.

Originally, he only regarded Ye Zhiguo as a post station in his life, and didn't want to ask about state affairs, but now, his mind has changed, no matter where he goes in the future, he must first calm down Ye Zhiguo.

As a member of the country of Ye, if you still ignore the safety of your country and ignore it, then it will violate the Dao heart and will affect your future cultivation and success.

On the way, Ye Feng saw some chilling scenes, the emperor ordered the officers and soldiers to drive the people within a radius of ten miles for the so-called 'tranquility', and those officers and soldiers wantonly plundered the people's property for the so-called 'reward'.

Ye Feng didn't stop it, let it behave recklessly, as a prince, he had no real power, he could only see the unevenness of the road, and he couldn't pull out the knife.

He understood that if he tried to stop it, he could only save the people for a while, not for a lifetime, and if he wanted to truly save the people from fire and water, he could only overthrow this government and completely destroy this rule.

......

Time passes like flowing water, bit by bit.

It wasn't until the evening sunset that everyone reached their destination, the Autumn Leaf Forest.

Ye Feng followed the crowd and stood at the entrance of the forest, and what caught his eye was a bare pole and a dashing fallen leaf scattered all over the ground.

The maple leaves are very red and burn like fresh blood, warming the autumn at the end of the year.

Each person, carrying a curved bow, stepped on a piece of maple leaves, made a crisp sound, and slowly dispersed to various places, like casting a net to catch fish, and began to pursue prey.

"Xiaofeng, should we speed up?"

For a moment, Li Mu reminded.

Because he and Ye Feng have always been at the back of the crowd, if it goes on like this, let alone hunting, even if you can see a prey, it would be good.

"Don't worry, the people in front won't be able to hit any animals anyway!"

Ye Feng was unhurried, with a leisurely appearance,

The divine consciousness spread out in all directions, and there were no fierce beasts found, only some hares, weasels and the like, and it was expected that there would not be much to gain today.

"How do you know?"

Li Mu was puzzled, his divine sense was limited, and he couldn't probe a long distance like Ye Feng.

"The secret that can't be said!"

Ye Feng walked lightly, as if he was not here to hunt beasts, but a free sightseer.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Ye Feng paused his feet, as if he had made some surprising discovery.

"What's wrong?"

Li Mu was stunned, startled.

"No, nothing!"

Ye Feng smiled indifferently and continued to move forward, his steps calm.

In an instant, the divine sense captured that in the direction not far away, some officers and soldiers found a wild boar, and dozens of people were shooting arrows while chasing after it.

Who would have thought that this wild boar is by far the most decent beast in the red leaf forest.

After a few hours, the beasts were discovered, and most of them joined the fight, but there were no strong beasts, let alone monsters.

Ye Feng noticed that the crown prince Ye Yu was chasing a tiger with hundreds of subordinates, although the tiger was fierce and injured many people, but in the end it could not escape the fate of being strangled by so many people.

And the second prince Ye Zhou, and a large group of people against a dozen wild wolves, when the wolves are in a pack, the combat effectiveness will be doubled, but when the number of people encountered is dozens of times that of the wolf, there is no power to return to the sky.

"It's weird!"

Ye Feng suddenly retracted his divine sense, his eyes turned in all directions, and he muttered in a low voice.

"What's wrong, Xiaofeng?"

Li Mu followed Ye Feng's side closely, acting as a bodyguard, the purpose of his trip was not to hunt any beasts, as long as he ensured that his nephew was safe and sound.

"Like...... Someone has been spying on us!"
