There are always humans who pursue me [system]

Fortunately, there was a slight rustling sound from the grass in the distance at this moment, and it was a small animal running over.Ling Jiu's attention couldn't help being attracted by it, and Qin Zhenghan forced himself to calm down by taking a deep breath, and said in a hoarse voice: "Probably squirrels or hares——this season, many animals will be busy in order to store food."

Ling Jiu, who was not 'eat' full, remembered the squirrel mandarin fish and rabbit meat stewed radish that he had eaten in the Anping Palace, "...Store food?"

"Well," Qin Zhenghan nodded, and patiently explained to the boy: "There will be no food to eat in the deep winter, so they have to store food in advance."

So Ling Jiu also made up his mind to stockpile food.

In order not to waste time on the road, the convoy took shortcuts no matter whether they were going to Jiangcheng or returning to the imperial city. They had to camp for two consecutive nights because they crossed the mountains and forests. When camping the next night, Ling Jiu turned his ideas into He made his move,—and went with his new squire to catch squirrels or hares in the neighborhood.

It is said that catching rabbits cannot be solved by force alone, but by fully understanding the characteristics and habits of rabbits. Xu Tiange is very good at this, and took Ling Jiu directly to the vicinity of the rabbit's nest, and then ambushed there. Wait for them to throw themselves into the net.

Ling Jiu wore the cloak that Xu Tiange insisted on him to wear to keep out the cold, obediently imitating Xu Tiange's appearance and waiting motionlessly.That cloak was one of the few wet things in the package. The outer material was a low-key and pure black ink color, while the inner material was a flamboyant red, embroidered with majestic little tigers just like the pajamas.At this moment, Ling Jiu was lying down in the grass like a hunting cub, only showing a pair of big eyes.

I waited obediently for a while, but didn't hear any movement, so I couldn't help but ask: "... the rabbit... won't go out tonight?"

Afraid of scaring the rabbit away, he kept the volume down, so the ending was so soft that Xu Tiange's heart couldn't stop beating.Just as he was about to reply, there was a very light rustling sound, and he was shocked immediately, and hurriedly raised his hand to pull the net rope.

"—Caught it!"

When the 'little tiger' heard this, his eyes lit up, and he immediately jumped up from the withered grass, looking happily and curiously at the small prey in the net bag.It was light yellow, fluffy, and looked like a cub, as Ling Jiu approached, he looked at him shyly, the round eyes reflected amber light.

There are only a few kinds of alien beasts in the interstellar world, and there are no animals in the ancient earth, so this is the first time that Lingjiu has seen such a weak life form. After a while, he secretly stretched out a finger and touched the other party lightly. head.The fluffy touch from the fingertips made Ling Jiu slightly taken aback, and also made the little rabbit shake her ears nervously.However, Ling Jiu was even more nervous than the little rabbit, and even opened his eyes wide as if he was facing an enemy, and quickly retracted his fingers, not daring to touch them again.

From Ling Jiu's point of view, his body is so hard that it is invincible, but the little rabbit is soft and fluffy, for fear of accidentally crushing it; but from Xu Tiange's point of view, the cautious appearance of the young man is a hundred times cuter than the little rabbit, It can make people's whole heart soft and velvety.And even if he risked his life, he still had to give the young man an indestructible guardian, so that he could maintain a pure and kind personality without any worries.

But I don't know that the reason for Lingjiu's cautiousness is quite different from what Xu Tiange thought.

Little rabbits are used to store food, and they cannot be eaten until they are grown up, so naturally they cannot be crushed.As an artificial human, no matter how harmless Ling Jiu looks, he has no sympathy and pity for weak beings, and he doesn't know what is pure kindness and what is ruthless, and he doesn't need anyone's protection.

What was even more frightening was that even if he killed all the people in the imperial city, his eyes were still as clear as before, and there was no trace of murderous intent on his body, as if the person with dirty hands was not him.

Qin Zhenghan waited almost maniacally until Ling Jiu finally came back, his already frowning brows were further frowned because of the rabbit in his arms.Perhaps because of the lack of murderous intent, Ling Jiu gained the trust of the little rabbit. Not only did he nestle quietly in his arms, but he also fell asleep with his ears drooped. His two little front paws were cutely placed together, like a cloud of dust. Fluttering little pompom.But for Qin Zhenghan, who even eats the jealousy of animals, he can't see any cuteness at all, he just wants to kill it and throw it out.

"...Where did Jiu'er find the rabbit?"

As soon as Ling Jiu stepped into the tent, he felt Qin Zhenghan's body approaching from behind, his ears were surrounded by the heat from the other party's words, and the sound from the depths of his throat was cold, which seemed to imply the intention of a snake spewing out a letter Hissing sound.

The body immediately became vigilant, and it was too late to care about the "Jiu'er" Qin Zhenghan called himself, and turned to look at Qin Zhenghan with vigilance in his eyes.Looking at each other at a close distance, those eyes looked more clear and crystal clear, which gave Qin Zhenghan the urge to lick them, staring at them deeply and unable to look away.

Little did he know that Ling Jiu's impression of Qin Zhenghan would be negative and negative because of this.

——The other party's eyes looked very hungry, he must be trying to snatch his rabbit!His milk was taken away before, his job was taken away yesterday, and today he wants to rob him of his food reserves. It's too much!

Ling Jiu couldn't help hugging the little rabbit even tighter, and even stingily hid it behind his back. He even took the little rabbit with him when he was on the road the next day, and tried to stay as far away from Qin Zhenghan as possible. .

Today's weather is rarely sunny, Qin Zhenghan looked at Ling Jiu's figure riding a horse and walking far ahead through the car curtain, his gentle expression was slightly tinged with melancholy and loss.Then he lowered the car curtain, clenched his fists and asked, "What did you do?!"

Fortunately, this question only existed in his own mind, and no one else could hear it.A cold voice sounded slowly after a while, "I didn't do anything." Then he asked with some malice: "Maybe the reason he distanced himself from you is just because he hates your gentle and incompetent character?"

Qin Zhenghan's expression did not change after hearing this, but he said calmly and seriously: "I don't care what you want to do, but I warn you not to hurt him."

"Warn me?" The cold voice sneered, "What are you using to warn me? Can you hold me down?"

Qin Zhenghan ignored the other party's sneer, "You can try."

The cold voice suddenly became colder, "Could it be that you also like him? It's just a subordinate personality, dare to rob me?!"

Qin Zhenghan didn't answer, but reiterated: "No matter what, I won't allow you to hurt him."

The other party also reiterated word by word in a very cold tone: "He is mine, even you can't snatch it from me."

There was a strong murderous intent in the words, and after a while, it calmed down, full of bewitching: "You disappear on your own initiative, give me the right to use your body completely, and I will seize everything that should belong to me, and take the throne and The entire Eastern Wasteland was given to him as a gift..."

Qin Zhenghan raised the car curtain again and looked at Ling Jiu's silhouette, without speaking again.After two hours, the convoy turned into the wide official road, and they could reach the imperial city by going straight forward. Perhaps it was because no one dared to challenge Emperor Wu's fighting level. They hadn't encountered a single killer in the past few days until the evening came. The dusty people in front rushed to the bottom of the city, neighing their horses and stopping.

The young man riding a horse took a look at the big gold-plated characters written by the imperial pen on the city wall, and saw the brilliance and majesty. The man in the car also took a look at the inscription on the imperial city plaque, and said softly, "Go into the city."

As soon as he stepped into the gate of the city, he found that someone was already waiting inside, and he knelt down respectfully towards Qin Zhenghan: "The villain pays homage to the seventh prince, and the eldest prince, the fourth prince and the fifth prince, have arranged for you to meet him in the inner city. Your Highness, please move."

These three princes are the most powerful among the princes, they can be called evenly matched, and it is rare to get them together today.Qin Zhenghan knew that he was definitely not what they wanted to pick up, and he also knew what they were planning, but nodded, "Okay."

The reason why he nodded was not because he was afraid of offending others, but because of Ling Jiu.Because as long as Ling Jiu steps into the imperial city, he will inevitably be approached by various princes with various excuses. When the time comes, it will be hard to explain who will come first and who will say what and what gift.Now, on the contrary, it is a very good opportunity, allowing Zero Nine to get to know all the people at once in an open environment, saving follow-up troubles, and also saving the population.

The atmosphere in the tea room was quite harmonious. The eldest prince Qin Zhengzhe had a benevolent smirk on his face, the fourth prince Qin Yuanhong had a rough and outgoing look, and the fifth prince Qin Jingwei drank tea quietly without showing any anger.

——But the moment he saw Ling Jiu appearing, his expression changed completely.

The smirk froze for a moment, then turned into a restrained expression, and a crack appeared in his moody expression.Especially when the young man looked over, his black and white eyes were as clear as layers of fine ink smeared on the white Xuan, and it was like a silent feast. Qin Yuanhong thought he had seen countless beauties, but he was still caught off guard. After regaining his senses, he immediately got up and walked towards the young man, and said with a loud smile, "Is this young master Ling? It's true that seeing a hundred things is worse than seeing it once. It's so charming and dazzling, it's amazing."

He and Qin Zhenghan are four points alike, they both have thick eyebrows and thin lips, they are brothers at first sight, and although this fourth prince is bold and magnanimous on the surface, he is very arrogant, and it is rare for him to be so enthusiastic and proactive towards anyone.But Lingjiu just looked at him and didn't reply, his attitude was as cold as ice.However, it can seduce people's hearts through the thick layer of ice, making people surge with fiery desire in this coldness.

Seeing that Qin Yuanhong was ignored, Qin Zhengzhe was overjoyed, and took the opportunity to come over and said, "When I saw Young Master Ling today, I really felt like old friends at first sight. Young Master Ling just came to the imperial city, so he may not know that there are many interesting places in the imperial city. If you don't dislike it, just accept this brand, although it is not very useful, but it can still be used to clear the way or clear the field."

He said it was modest, but when the jade plaque inlaid with the gold medal was revealed, everyone could see its weight, not to mention the seal on it, the quality of the jade alone was worth a lot.

Unexpectedly, the boy's attitude remained flat, and he didn't even intend to take over the jade token.

In fact, Ling Jiu didn't answer just now because he was scanning Qin Yuanhong with his electronic eyes, and he didn't pick up the jade token because he was scanning it: "Ding, the name of this item: rock-forming mineral, composition: calcium magnesium silicate. It contains energy :0."

Therefore, in Ling Jiu's eyes, the rare jade token was not as good as his little rabbit.But praise was useless, and gift giving was also useless. Only then did everyone truly feel that the young master of the Ling family had such a cold and difficult personality, which was completely different from what they had imagined.Even Qin Jingwei, who had always been calm, frowned secretly. At this moment, the hood on the young man's cloak suddenly moved.

There was obviously something hidden inside, and Qin Zhengzhe and Qin Yuanhong, who were closest to the boy, were taken aback for a moment, and even subconsciously made defensive gestures.It wasn't until the thing got out of its head that it was a little rabbit.

He was only two or three months old, and was fluffy and chubby. He crawled from the hood to the boy's shoulders, and finally lay down on top of him.And as soon as it appeared, the boy's character design instantly collapsed. ——So powerful and beautiful, but like this kind of weak and cute thing, the combination of Gaoling flower and soft and cute little pet is so contrasting that it cannot be cuter, and the occasional glimpse of softness outside the coldness will make people more tempted .

"So Young Master Ling likes small animals?" Qin Jingwei, who had been silent for a long time, said, the arc of his lips and the sense of intimacy in his tone were just right, "This rabbit is indeed cute, but I know a friend who has a lot of animals. There are even cuter animals, I wonder if Young Master Ling is interested in seeing them?"
