The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Cheng Feng nodded, while Wan Lianxing turned his body sideways in silence, with an intriguing expression on his face.

"Hahahaha! Hahahaha! Cheng Feng, so you thought this python was poisonous. Hahahaha! Hahaha! I said you are not a qualified hunter. You can't even tell whether the prey is poisonous or not. You have poor eyesight. Hahahaha."

Wan Lianxing saw that Cheng Feng was so stupid that he didn't know what he was thinking, so he said, "Follower, stop laughing. What's so funny?"

"Hahahaha, hahahaha! Lord Marquis, how could you let Cheng Feng manipulate you? He wasn't just treating a wound, he was clearly making the situation worse. How did you survive his vicious clutches? Hahahaha, hahahaha."

Wan Lianxing said: "I was angry just now and didn't want to pay attention to him. I thought it would be better if the snake was poisonous. I could just poison it to death, and then no one would be angry with me anymore."

"Pah..." Cheng Feng spat on the ground, "Uncle, why didn't you tell me earlier? My mouth tastes of blood, pah, pah..."

"Hmph, even though it smells fishy, ​​it's still my blood. It won't kill you. You think my blood smells fishy, ​​but I think your hand is too heavy. Don't blame your followers for crying out in pain. You really don't know how to serve others."

Cheng Feng endured the nausea and bandaged the follower's wound. He said to Wan Lianxing, "Uncle, it's almost dawn. You should take a rest. We will go home soon. We can't go any further."

"We've only been walking for a day and haven't even found the entrance to the mountains yet. Are you going back?"

"You're injured. Go back first. This place is a little strange. The snakes are bigger than in other places. If you go forward, you may run into something."

Wan Lianxing laughed, "Feng'er, if we walk for another day, we will reach a deep mountain forest that is more than 300 years old. It is not surprising that the prey here are big. Besides, if we want to know what is ahead, we can only know what is ahead when we get there."

Along the way, it is not difficult to see that few people have walked through here. Those who can enter the deep mountains and old forests must be extraordinary. It can also be said that those who can enter the deep mountains and old forests are destined not to be ordinary people.

"Uncle, we can't go any further. Hunting is for fun, not to risk your life. Listen to me, we will return at dawn and be home by nightfall. You three should take good care of your wounds. They have been exposed to the rain for days, and your wounds will get infected."

"Are you afraid?"

"I'm not afraid. My son is here. I'm afraid he'll be taken away by prey."

"Feng'er, my uncle knows that you have no interest in politics and business. Although we were born in a wealthy family and have a certain amount of wealth and power, we are not as good as ordinary people. It is difficult for us to live a stable life. The dangers we have to face are far greater than what this unknown forest brings to me. Therefore, as a descendant of the Wan family, you must practice courage from a young age."

"Do we have to practice courage here?" Cheng Feng was puzzled.

The follower interrupted, "Practice right here. Look at what happened just now. My disciple was so scared that he didn't even run away. He just hid in your arms. Such an unpromising disciple is simply a coward."

Cheng Feng really didn't want to refute Wan Lianxing and his followers. After all, these two people had just risked their lives to save him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have had two lives to live.

In the prefect's residence in Fengying, Shang Xi had not slept all night and was still looking out the gate, with the old steward of Wan Lianxing standing beside him.

The old housekeeper advised Shang Xi: "Young Madam, go back. The place the Marquis and his men are going to is quite far and they won't be back today."

Shang Xi was holding an umbrella, with a worried look on her face. "Old housekeeper, they didn't say they were going to spend the night outside before they went out. I thought they would be back yesterday evening. Where did these people go? How could they spend the night outside on such a rainy day?"

"Young Madam, you have to trust me. Even if you wait here until dark, they may not come back."

"If they don't come back at night, then they will come back at midnight? Cheng Youning is only wearing one layer of clothes, will he catch cold? How many people have they gone with?"

"Madam, the Marquis has more than 50 people with him, and they are all his trusted followers. They will not encounter any danger."

"But the weather is too bad. What if Cheng Youning gets sick? Did you bring a doctor with you?"

The old butler shook his head. "Without a doctor, how can the doctor's physical fitness keep up with the speed of the Marquis and his men hunting? Moreover, the Marquis is hunting in the rain."

"What a weird quirk. Don't we always choose good weather for hunting? Snowy days are better than rainy days. There are fewer prey on rainy days, and you can't hear or see clearly. It must be very difficult."

The old butler sighed, "I am old, and I can't persuade the Marquis. If he wants to do something, even ten cows can't stop him."

At this time, Zhong Siyu also came with an umbrella, "Shang Xi, old housekeeper, I heard from the servants that you are standing here before dawn, go back and have a rest."

Shang Xi said: "I didn't sleep a wink all night, my heart was pounding, I was worried about my Cheng Youning."

Zhong Siyu was also worried about Wan Lianxing, "Old housekeeper, send someone to pick up the Marquis."

The old housekeeper had no choice but to tell the truth to the two women: "They only brought five days' worth of dry food. Even if I sent someone to pick them up, I couldn't. They have already run very far away."

"Five days?"

"Five days?"

Shang Xi burst into tears. "Where can my son sleep in the wilderness? He needs to take a nap during the day and eat soup and meat for every meal. It's so cold and damp here. It would be strange if he doesn't get sick."

Zhong Siyu took Shang Xi's hand and comforted her: "Cheng Youning is in good health and won't get sick. Don't scare yourself."

"I just can't understand why these people are so interested in hunting. What's the point of hunting? Is it for excitement or for me?"

The fifth day made Shang Xi's emotions a little unbearable. She was in agony that night. If it was the fifth day, she might as well have gone with him at that time.

At this time, a man came on horseback in the rain. Hearing the sound of horse hooves, Shang Xi's heart suddenly came to life, thinking that it was the hunter who came back to deliver a letter. Looking carefully, it turned out to be Sha Guanghan's wife Zhao Shuyun who came in the rain. She was riding very fast and seemed to have something urgent to do. She tightened the reins and jumped off the horse when she came in front of a few people.

Before Shang Xi could come to her senses, she saw Zhao Shuyun kneeling in front of these people, "I want to see the Marquis."

"Get up first." Shang Xi reached out to pull her up, but couldn't. She must have come for Sha Guanghan again. "The Marquis is not at home, so you won't be able to see him today."

"Mrs. Cheng, please go and say a few good words for me. I know the Marquis must be at home. I have something urgent to do. My old Sha is going to lose his head."

"Captain Sha went to war and killed the enemy, which benefited the country and the people. He was doing something meritorious. How could he lose his head?"
