Chapter 59: Hunting Geese on Horseback
Several guards hurriedly drove their horses to chase and shoot from a distance of 100 meters, but to no avail. One by one, they returned dejectedly, not daring to say a word and standing on both sides.
Qianxin's face was gloomy, she glanced back at Leng Gongxue and said, "Leng Gongxue, you go and beat the wild crane down for me, if you can't beat it, I will punish you for running barefoot all night tonight." ”
Leng Gongxue was very aggrieved on her face, and said: "Princess, the wild crane has already flown so far, how can I hit it?" Qianxin said willfully: "I don't care, anyway, if you don't get me a wild crane back, I won't be able to spare you, and today's crime of driving will be counted together." ”
Seeing that there was only a black shadow left in the wild crane in the distance, Leng Gongxue gritted his teeth and took the bow and arrow from the guard, and he shook the reins of the horse and chased after him.
The sweaty horse is nicknamed the Thousand Miles Horse, and its speed is amazingly fast, and within a few minutes, you can see the wild cranes in the sky on land, and the wild cranes are getting closer and closer.
Leng Gongxue put the arrow on the string, aimed at the leader of a wild crane and pulled the bow, as soon as he let go, the bow and arrow shot out, only to hear a mournful roar, the wild crane fell vertically from the sky, and the rest of the wild cranes fled in a panic.
Leng Gongxue took out three arrows from the quiver and put them on the string together, and as soon as she let go, the three arrows flew towards the three wild cranes.
Leng Gongxue shot several times, and a group of wild cranes were all shot down by Leng Gongxue. At this time, Princess Qianxin and the guards also caught up, and they opened their mouths in surprise when they saw Leng Gongxue's superb hunting skills.
Leng Gongxue dropped the horse's head as soon as she beat the wild crane, came to Princess Qianxin and said, "Princess, my task is complete, can you let me leave." ”
Qianxin asked someone to pick up wild cranes, and looked at Leng Gongxue and said, "I see that you are extraordinary, not by ordinary people, where did you come from and where are you going?"
Leng Gongxue sighed and said: "Princess, I can't hide it, I don't know where I came from, after a fight, I lost my memory, and this time I want to go to the Himalayas to find an herb that can restore my memory."
When Qianxin heard this, he said: "You have amnesia? It seems a little incredible, the Himalayas are still two thousand miles away from here, and it will take you about ten days and half a month to walk." ”
Leng Gongxue nodded and said, "Yes, although the road is long, I believe that one day I will be able to get there." ”
Qianxin smiled and said, "However, I have already given you the bloody horse, you can ride it to the Himalayas, and you will be there in less than two days." ”
Leng Gongxue said with a look of joy on her face: "Thank you, princess, for your success." ”
Qianxin looked around at the dark sky and said, "Leng Gongxue, why don't you accompany me to camp here first, and when I have had enough, I will accompany you to the Himalaya, what do you think?"
Leng Gongxue didn't want to agree, but Qianxin had already whipped his horse and ran out of the ranch, so he could only follow obediently.
Not far from a village, the palace guards set up tents, and the ladies were busy making the princess's bed and clothes.
A couple of chefs were busy making dinner.
Leng Gongxue tied the horses and sat quietly not far from the tent, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the grassland very beautifully, it had not been so comfortable to appreciate the beauty of nature for a long time, Leng Gongxue was intoxicated by the beautiful scenery, and did not notice that Princess Qianxin had come to her side.
Princess Qianxin sat down next to Leng Gongxue, pointed to the curling smoke in the distance and said, "Leng Gongxue, I have never seen such a beautiful village and grassland, this place is much better for me than the palace." ”
Leng Gongxue quickly stood up and stepped aside and said, "Princess, isn't the palace bad? ”
Qianxin looked at Leng Gongxue's alert appearance and said: "Leng Gongxue, you don't have to be polite, here, you will treat me as an ordinary person, if you are always so restrained, it will be very difficult for us to get along with each other." ”
Leng Gongxue nodded and sat down again to look at Princess Qianxin, her delicate face, shy eyebrows and the fragrance she exuded, which unconsciously made Leng Gongxue's mood a little messy, he quickly closed his eyes and recited the warning words of the cultivation cheats, stifling the distracting thoughts that he was about to rise.
Qianxin saw Leng Gongxue closing her eyes and chanting, and said with a smile: "Leng Gongxue, why did you become so demented? Is this princess too ugly to meet your eyes?"
Leng Gongxue hurriedly shook her head and said, "No, it's the princess who is too beautiful, and the grass people don't dare to look at it." Qianxin giggled, and her voice was as clear as the song of a lark, full of joy.
Leng Gongxue suddenly had an illusion, he seemed to be running on the grassland, and a little girl also laughed and shouted: "Brother Gongxue, wait for me, I want to play with you, don't you leave Sister Tianjiao, okay?"
Leng Gongxue's tightly closed eyes hurriedly opened, and he raised his eyes to see no human figure in the distance, only then did he realize that it was his hallucination. Thinking of Chen Bojushi's teaching, we should cultivate our self-cultivation more, and not be controlled by our minds, he closed his eyes again and adjusted his breath.
Princess Qianxin looked at the handsome young man beside her, and unconsciously felt a girl's ripples in her heart, she slowly approached Leng Gongxue, leaned her head on Leng Gongxue's shoulder, and looked at the white clouds floating in the sky.
Leng Gongxue closed her eyes and cultivated her heart, Princess Qianxin leaned on Leng Gongxue's shoulder, looked up at the sky, and dreamed of a girl.
Just as the two of them were sitting quietly on the grassy hill enjoying the good time of dusk, there was a sound of horses neighing from the end of the grassland.
The voice got closer and closer, and after a while, a group of people came to Leng Gongxue and Princess Qianxin, surrounding the two of them.
Leng Gongxue and Princess Qianxin were very surprised, and Leng Gongxue hurriedly helped Princess Qianxin to stand up and protect her by her side.
The people on horseback around were veiled, and a pair of evil eyes showed a murderous light. Princess Qianxin was very frightened when she looked at these people, and she hugged Leng Gongxue's arm tightly.
Leng Gongxue said in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, princess, I will protect you." Qianxin nodded.
Leng Gongxue pointed to the person opposite and asked, "Who are you and why are you surrounding us?"
The first person stared greedily at Princess Qianxin with evil eyes on horseback for a long time, and when he heard Leng Gongxue ask, he opened his mouth and said, "Who is the woman opposite?"
Leng Gongxue shouted sharply: "This is the princess Qianxin of the northern country, why don't you hurry up and get off the horse to give a salute?"
When the person in charge heard this, he carefully looked at Qianxin, and then said: "It really has an extraordinary temperament and is beautiful." ”
Qianxin's face turned red and reprimanded angrily: "Who are you, you dare to look directly at this princess, you are guilty of bullying the king." ”
The man raised his head and laughed and said, "The grass people are people who walk the rivers and lakes, they don't know any etiquette, and they hope that the princess will forgive their sins." Saying that, the man waved his hand and said to the people around him: "Come on, everyone protect the princess, and you must not wronged this beauty." ”
When the people around heard the order, they dismounted one after another and moved closer to Leng Gongxue and Qianxin. Leng Gongxue saw that something was wrong, and he shouted: "Stop, don't get close, whoever dares to take a step forward, I'm welcome." ”
The man at the head scolded, "Who are you? How dare you meddle in your business? Aren't you afraid that I will take you away?"
Leng Gongxue replied: "I am Leng Gongxue, and it is my bounden duty to protect Princess Qianxin." ”
When the man heard this, the muscles on his face trembled a few times, and he asked, "Are you the Leng Gongxue sent by the dynasty to fight the enemy in southern Xinjiang? Why did you appear here?"
Leng Gongxue said: "Yes, you dare to threaten the princess now, that is, openly confronting the imperial court, which is the first crime of treason." ”
