Chapter 63 Dream of the Red Chamber 1 scene (68)
68
The royal hunting ground covers a wide area, including mountains, grasslands and lakes, and there are two rivers crossing the territory.The Hunting Field Palace stands in the north, facing the mountain and facing the lake. There are five palaces, fifteen other courtyards, more than one hundred pavilions, and more than eight hundred rooms in total. Don't have fun.
Not long after arriving at the palace, Lin Ruhai was summoned by Emperor Jialong. Lin Yuzhou took Lin Cong to wander around the palace to figure out its general layout.
On the first day of the hunting ground palace, there were no special arrangements. After everyone had arranged the place to live, they went to rest.Lin Yuzhou finished shopping around, and when he returned to the room, he heard Lin Chang say that the eldest prince Ji Rong had taken a group of people out to hunt.
"The eldest son of Mr. Wang's mansion also went with him." Lin Chang added.
Lin Yuzhou was stunned for a moment before he realized that Lin Chang was referring to Wang Ziteng, and his eldest son was Wang Xifeng's cousin Wang Rong?This autumn hunt, Wang Ziteng brought his two sons. This is the first time Lin Yuzhou has seen these two. a nerd.
"Just arrived at the palace and went out?" Lin Yuzhou looked at the sky, just at noon, Ji Rong couldn't hold back anymore?Is it too impatient?
Lin Chang took two steps forward, and said in a low voice: "Listen to the rumors below, the first prince had a big fight with the princess before he took people out to hunt, probably about the fact that Concubine Xue was pregnant."
The bad relationship between the eldest prince and the concubine is known to all the dignitaries in the capital. It is said that it is because the eldest prince favors the side concubine Xue.
The people in the palace talk a lot, and they can't cover anything, but what makes Lin Yuzhou strange is that if the eldest prince really loves Xue Baochai, why would he take her to the muddy water of Qiushou?Not to mention that Xue Baochai is still pregnant.
Just as Lin Yuzhou was speculating about the motives of the eldest prince's actions, a young eunuch ran towards him.The little eunuch was extremely thin, but his eyes were bright. When he saw Lin Yuzhou, he immediately knelt down on the ground, and at the same time stretched out his right hand, presenting a small note.
Lin Yuzhou took the note, read the content on it, and then looked down at the little eunuch in front of him, realizing that this autumn hunt was getting more and more interesting.
As soon as Ji Rong took Wang Rong and his party out of the palace, they met Hou Jinan, the second son of Duke Xiu. Hou Jinan satirized Wang Rong because his eyes were not eyes and his nose was not his nose. After persuasion, Wang Rong was finally left in anger, and Ji Rong took Hou Jinan to continue hunting in the palace.
Outside the side street behind the main entrance of the palace, Liu Xianglian saw the farce completely in his eyes. When he was about to follow the eldest prince to investigate what he was going to do, the voices of the people around him brought him back to his senses.
"Brother Xianglian, what are you looking at?"
Liu Xianglian turned to look at Wei Ruolan, said with a smile, "It's nothing, I was dazed just now and thought I saw someone I know." After all, it was inconvenient for Wei Ruolan to be around, he had to think of a way.
Wei Ruolan shook her head: "I always feel that brother Xianglian has changed a lot recently, you..."
"Brother Ruolan, I just remembered that Brother Ziying has something for me to pass on to Feng Ziyu. I'll go to Feng Ziyu first, and I'll treat you to a drink tonight." Liu Xianglian didn't wait for Wei Ruolan to say anything, turned around and ran away.
Wei Ruolan stood there and opened his mouth, he wanted to say that Liu Xianglian ran in the wrong direction, General Feng Tang was summoned by His Majesty, Feng Ziying and Feng Ziyu were both in the palace...
Liu Xianglian's tracking skills were not as good as the three scouts of the Twelve Guards, but they were much better than others. He tracked northward along Ji Rong's trail after leaving the palace, and entered the range of the royal hunting ground.
After entering the forest, Liu Xianglian abandoned her horse and tree, and while jumping in the forest, she found Ruan Mingyi's trail.
"Be careful, don't show your whereabouts." Ruan Mingyi flew to Liu Xianglian and reminded her.
Liu Xianglian nodded, and said in a low voice: "This forest is very strange, there is not even a bird singing."
Ruan Mingyi sneered: "If you feel carefully, there are more than just the eldest prince in this forest."
Liu Xianglian calmed down and listened carefully with her internal energy. Sure enough, she heard loud noises coming from several directions. She was about to ask Ruan Mingyi when a ferocious roar almost "blast" his ears off.
"Hiss!" Liu Xianglian covered her ears, feeling little stars appearing in front of her eyes.
"This way." Ruan Mingyi gave Liu Xianglian a hand and flew towards the east of the forest.
In the depths of the dense forest, on the flat ground near the river, there are more than [-] large iron cages, and all kinds of ferocious beasts are kept in the cages, such as tigers, bears, and wolves. Since the feeders control their food intake, these ferocious beasts Always in a state of restlessness waiting to be preyed on.
"It's all here?" Ji Rong knocked on the iron cage with his horsewhip, and was sprayed by the suddenly violent tiger, the horsewhip was bitten off, and he broke out in a cold sweat.
Hou Jinan took a few steps back cautiously, and turned his gaze to the person Ji Rong asked, who was Xue Pan.
Xue Pan controlled his trembling legs, moved to the edge of the farthest position from the iron cage, and whispered to Ji Rong: "Your Highness, these are the most ferocious beasts trained by the animal trainers, no matter how powerful the hunter is, They can’t hold them back.” Xue Pan swallowed his saliva in the middle of the sentence, and then said: “The wolf king is locked in that cage, and when he roars, all the wolves in the royal hunting ground will gather.”
Ji Rong's heart trembled. He walked up to Xue Pan and asked, "Is there a wolf in the royal hunting ground?" This is a place exclusively for the royal family and nobles to hunt. Ferocious beasts will be cleaned up regularly, let alone in groups. of wolves.
"Your Highness." Hou Jinan answered the conversation at this time, and he replied for Xue Pan: "The wolves were raised by the people in the hunting ground. For this plan, he has raised these wolves for more than a year."
A strange smile appeared on Ji Rong's face, and he said loudly: "The plan is successful, and there will be many rewards!" After speaking, he looked at Xue Pan again: "You also have merit, and it takes a lot of money and effort to find these ferocious beasts. Not to mention transporting them into the hunting grounds, this king will remember your contribution."
Xue Pan wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, and his voice was a little dry: "Don't dare to take credit, Your Highness, I don't know my sister..."
Ji Rong waved his hand and said with a smile: "Chan Concubine Xue is fine, the imperial physician has found out that she is two months pregnant, you are going to be an uncle soon."
A smile uglier than crying appeared on Xue Pan's face, and the cold sweat on his forehead grew more and more. Seeing this situation, Hou Jinan had a mocking sneer in his eyes.
Ji Rong couldn't see Xue Pan's cowardly appearance, so he sent him away: "Okay, you go back, and urge the animal trainer to take good care of these beasts, tomorrow is the time for them to make meritorious deeds."
Xue Pan left obediently, while Ji Rong stared at his back and spat on the ground.
When Hou Jinan saw this, an inexplicable light flashed in his eyes, and he asked doubtfully, "Your Highness doesn't seem to like the Xue family?"
"Heh! Xue Pan is an uninitiated person. For Xue Baochai, the Xue family can still be of use to me, but the Wang family..." Ji Rong kicked the little tree behind him, "That old fox Wang Ziteng said to support me , but no actual action, and Wang Rong, I think he is a duplicitous thing."
Hou Jinan smiled and said, "Master Wang's way of being an official is to fall on both sides of the wall."
Ji Rong snorted coldly, he put away his emoji, and greeted Jinan in a low voice: "Duke Xiu, are you ready?"
"Your Majesty, don't worry."
Ji Rong squeezed his fists, "Those people have to make arrangements to ensure nothing goes wrong tomorrow night."
Hou Jinan cupped his hands, indicating that everything was in order.
Ji Rong gritted his teeth, and said again: "Tell the people over there, if the plan succeeds, the Qin and Jin prefectures will be theirs." The so-called reluctance to bear children can't trap wolves, for Ji Rong, as long as he can get the supreme position, lose Some lands are nothing at all.
Liu Xianglian and Ruan Mingyi had heard nothing of the eldest prince's conspiracy. If Ruan Mingyi hadn't held Liu Xianglian back, he would have done justice for the heavens right away.
After finally leaving Ji Rong and the people by the river dispersed, Liu Xianglian spun down from the tree, drew out the saber from his waist, and raised his hand to finish off these caged beasts.
Ruan Mingyi held his saber and pulled him away from the river, "Don't be impulsive, these beasts can't hurt His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lord Lin."
"But there are other people hunting tomorrow. They are not the opponents of these beasts." Liu Xianglian frowned. These beasts looked like they grew up eating human flesh. They are ferocious, and ordinary people are their meals.
"Beasts don't have the ability to think. They act on instinct. Let's keep an eye on this place and send these animals to the First Prince tomorrow so that they can get along well." Aren't traitors just like animals?In Ruan Mingyi's heart, the most damnable thing is the eldest prince, since he said that, he has been a complete traitor, death is not a pity!
"The forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds." Liu Xianglian snorted coldly, raised her eyes and said, "There are other forces in the dense forest, you stay and investigate, and I will report the matter of the First Prince to His Highness the Crown Prince."
Ruan Mingyi nodded in agreement, he dodged towards the depths of the dense forest, and Liu Xianglian also disappeared in place with a few vertical leaps.
Behind a hidden rockery in the hunting ground palace, Xue Baochai stood in front of Lin Yuzhou with a pale face. She was dressed in plain onyx, with a white hairpin stuck on her temples. Lin Yuzhou frowned at this attire.
Xue Baochai touched the hairpin, and said softly, "Isn't Cousin Lin very strange to see me like this?"
Lin Yuzhou didn't answer, thinking that someone in the Xue family died?
"I wear this for myself." Xue Baochai looked up at the sky, with a very sad smile on his face, "I always thought I was very smart, but in the end I found that I was just an ordinary person, unable to escape the tricks of fate."
Lin Yuzhou didn't say a word, Xue Baochai asked him to meet, probably not because he wanted to find a tree hole to complain about, they were not that familiar.
Seeing that Lin Yuzhou was unmoved, Xue Baochai stopped his lyrical speech and said directly: "The eldest prince wants to rebel, and he will attack His Royal Highness when he hunts tomorrow."
"Why are you telling me this? You need to know that you are the eldest prince's side concubine. If he rebels, you will also be implicated." Lin Yuzhou asked.
"He can't succeed and he can't succeed." Xue Baochai clenched his fists tightly, and his fingernails were deeply embedded in his flesh. "I accidentally ran into his conversation with Hou Jinan, and learned that he had colluded with the Tatars for the throne and intended to Assassinate the Emperor during the autumn hunt. I wish my husband could sit in that position, but not in this way."
The corners of Lin Yuzhou's mouth twitched slightly, and he asked, "Why did you tell me these things?"
"The courtiers all know that Cousin Lin is very close to His Highness the Crown Prince. To tell you is to tell His Highness the Crown Prince. Besides, as a citizen of the Ji Dynasty, no matter what, the country comes first. I just want to have a clear conscience." Xue Baochai After saying this, Chaolin Yuzhou blessed himself, turned and left.
Lin Cong jumped down from the top of the rockery, looked at Xue Baochai's back and sighed: "She is quite understanding of righteousness, and she never said that the eldest prince was defeated, so I beg you to help me."
Lin Yuzhou laughed and knocked on Lin Cong's head: "That's not a sense of righteousness. She should have noticed Wang Ziteng's ambiguous attitude, and guessed that Emperor Jialong knew about the eldest prince's plan. Tell me this, just to protect yourself." .”
Lin Cong opened his mouth wide in disbelief: "Is she that smart?"
Lin Yuzhou spread his hands, the sister Baochai in the original book is a very wise woman, and so is this world.Although she didn't explicitly ask for her help just now, after the eldest prince's incident, she will definitely publicize what she said today. With her own testimony, the image of a woman who understands righteousness will be established.
She wants to bet the future of the Xue family on Ji Shengyan.

When Lin Yuzhou went to look for Ji Shengyan, he happened to hear Liu Xianglian's report. When he heard Liu Xianglian say that Xue Pan helped Ji Rong buy a lot of evil beasts to hunt and deal with them tomorrow, he immediately felt strong sympathy for Xue Baochai. It is also a tragedy to have pig teammates, or the kind that the gods of Da Luo can't bring up.
After Liu Xianglian finished speaking, he left, Ji Shengyan pulled Lin Yuzhou to his side, and stroked the hair hanging from his forehead behind his ears.
"He wants to borrow a knife to kill people." Ji Shengyan's "he" refers to Emperor Jialong.
"I guessed it." Lin Yuzhou curled his lips, "Is Wang Ziteng one of his people?"
Ji Shengyan nodded, the prince has put in a lot of effort in this messy situation, the old fox has deceived many people, and now the fox's tail is finally exposed.
Lin Yuzhou chuckled, and said: "Actually, after a careful analysis, we can see that if it weren't for his confidant, how could Emperor Jialong have given the military power of the important capital of the capital to Wang Ziteng? His promotions these years have been very smooth."
Ji Shengyan nodded, and said again: "Tomorrow there will be hunting activities during the day and a banquet at night. I will send someone to follow Lin Ruhai during the hunting. He will be in danger."
A deep light flashed in Lin Yuzhou's eyes, he snapped his fingers, and the sound of "papa" was endless.
Sensing Lin Yuzhou's mood, Ji Shengyan didn't say much, and pulled him to sit in front of the table, reviewing the next plan together.
September seventeenth, the end of the day.
The hunting ground was hunting with banners and flags. Emperor Jialong was wearing armor and riding on a tall horse. The three hunting teams in front spread out in three directions. an arrow.
Emperor Jialong also used to drink horses and rivers. Although he has not used martial arts for many years, he still knows how to shoot arrows. There are many small animals gathered in the middle. He shot a rabbit with a random arrow.
Lin Yuzhou curled his lips, and before he could complain, he found that the herald came out carrying the shot deer. He flattered him, saying that Emperor Jialong was brave and mighty, and that he was blessed by God. Following his words, came the news from the hunting ground The sound of "Long live the emperor" was like a tsunami.
Emperor Jialong laughed three times, announcing the start of the hunt, and at the same time announced a big reward for the top winner.
Turning a rabbit into a deer is a routine. Lin Yuzhou felt that talents were everywhere.He clamped his horse's belly, trotted to Lin Ruhai, and said with a smile, "Father, I will follow you today."
Lin Ruhai flicked the reins, glanced in the direction of Emperor Jialong secretly, and said to Lin Yuzhou: "Go and play with yourself. I will walk around the hunting ground with your Uncle Fu, and we will not enter the dense forest."
Lin Yuzhou raised his eyebrows and told Lin Cong, "Follow the master."
"Okay!" Lin Cong is a lazy guy who is not interested in shooting animals. He led the horse and pushed Lin Chang aside, and followed Lin Ruhai sloppily.
Seeing this, Lin Yuzhou turned his horse's head and galloped towards the forest. When he entered the forest, he happened to meet Ji Rong.
"Lin Xiuzhuan's mount is really handsome, it's a BMW!" Behind Ji Rong, Hou Jinan suddenly sighed with emotion.
Lin Yuzhou chuckled: "The Second Young Master Hou praised it absurdly. This was given to me by a head of a thousand households in Jincheng. If you like it, you might as well go to Jincheng to find it."
Hou Jinan nodded: "There will be a chance."
After hitting the horse into the forest, Lin Yuzhou put away his bow and arrow. He sensed the air flow around him, and easily found the "gift" that Ji Rong gave him and Ji Shengyan.
Once a beast has preyed on a human, it knows that the lethality of a human is not much different from that of a rabbit. In some cases, humans are even better at catching them. They include humans in their food chains, and they will form the habit of cannibalism, so throughout the ages As long as it is a beast that has eaten human flesh, it must be killed.
Lin Yuzhou is not a kind-hearted person, and he will not try to influence these mad and cannibal beasts with a compassionate heart, even if their tragedies are also caused by humans.
After euthanizing a mad bear and a tiger that tried to attack him, Lin Yuzhou encountered the wolf king who was said to have many younger brothers.
This wolf king is very smart, it seems to have noticed that Lin Yuzhou is not easy to mess with, and when he saw Lin Yuzhou, a muffled whimper sounded from his throat, as if threatening or begging for mercy.
Lin Yuzhou stared at the wolf king for a long time, and he felt that he couldn't do it, because he had never seen a wolf that looked so much like a husky in his two lifetimes.With the image of a fool, how did it become the "king"?Relying on the halo of reducing intelligence?
It is said that this Erha King can call out a hundred wolves at once, but Lin Yuzhou stood there for a long time without moving, and finally it crawled on the ground and groaned.
"What are you doing?" Ji Shengyan's voice came.
Lin Yuzhou got out of the way and let Ji Shengyan see the Erha wolf, but to his surprise, when the Erha wolf saw Ji Shengyan, he wailed twice and quickly ran away with his tail between his legs.
"Tell me, is it a wolf or a dog?" Lin Yuzhou asked Ji Shengyan.
Ji Shengyan was also taken aback for a moment, so it's a husky, right?He turned to Ruan Mingyi and said, "Send a message to the guard, if it doesn't hurt anyone, then we won't take its life."
Ruan Mingyi nodded and stepped back.
Lin Yuzhou released the mount and let it move freely. He and Ji Shengyan walked in the dense forest.
"Have all the evil beasts in the forest been dealt with?"
Ji Shengyan let out a "huh" and said, "In addition to the wolf that looks like a dog, there are two left for the boss."
"How did you deal with the corpse?" Lin Yuzhou asked again.
"Give it to the fourth child, as his spoils of war."
Lin Yuzhou cast a glance at Ji Shengyan. There are so many ferocious beasts in the hunting ground, and anyone with a discerning eye can understand what is going on. If they become Ji Zhao's trophies, Ji Zhao will definitely become the target of public criticism.Emperor Jialong's plan to kill someone with a knife failed, and while he had a heart attack, he also had doubts about Ji Zhao.
Ji Shengyan naturally knew what Lin Yuzhou was thinking, and he pulled him sideways to his side, explaining: "Ji Zhao needs to establish his prestige." Show talent, and these twenty or so man-eating beasts are enough.
"That's right, he will have a lot of responsibilities in the future. If he can't keep up, he will be eliminated." Lin Yuzhou moved his ears, and Ji Shengyan grabbed his waist just as he was about to move.
Ji Shengyan locked Lin Yuzhou in his arms, turned around to avoid the arrows shooting at him from four directions at the same time, and then turned around and leaned back to avoid the oncoming sword blade. When the two stood still, they were surrounded by a group of arrows. Men in black surrounded.
Lin Yuzhou leaned against Ji Shengyan's arms, the corners of his mouth curled up. He hadn't enjoyed being protected by him for a long time. He really wanted to thank the group of people in front of him, as well as Emperor Jialong, the instigator behind the scenes.
Lin Yuzhou asked Ji Shengyan with a smile, "Do you want me to do it?"
Ji Shengyan hugged his waist tightly, and bit his earlobe: "Don't make any trouble, leave it to me."
Lin Yuzhou groaned twice, and put half of his body weight on Ji Shengyan. He is a "delicate" young man today and needs careful protection from his lover.
The royal hunting ground covers a wide area, including mountains, grasslands and lakes, and there are two rivers crossing the territory.The Hunting Field Palace stands in the north, facing the mountain and facing the lake. There are five palaces, fifteen other courtyards, more than one hundred pavilions, and more than eight hundred rooms in total. Don't have fun.
Not long after arriving at the palace, Lin Ruhai was summoned by Emperor Jialong. Lin Yuzhou took Lin Cong to wander around the palace to figure out its general layout.

"The courtiers all know that Cousin Lin is very close to His Highness the Crown Prince. To tell you is to tell His Highness the Crown Prince. Besides, as a citizen of the Ji Dynasty, no matter what, the country comes first. I just want to have a clear conscience." Xue Baochai After saying this, Chaolin Yuzhou blessed himself, turned and left.
Lin Cong jumped down from the top of the rockery, looked at Xue Baochai's back and sighed: "She is quite understanding of righteousness, and she never said that the eldest prince was defeated, so I beg you to help me."
Lin Yuzhou laughed and knocked on Lin Cong's head: "That's not a sense of righteousness. She should have noticed Wang Ziteng's ambiguous attitude, and guessed that Emperor Jialong knew about the eldest prince's plan. Tell me this, just to protect yourself." .”
Lin Cong opened his mouth wide in disbelief: "Is she that smart?"
Lin Yuzhou spread his hands, the sister Baochai in the original book is a very wise woman, and so is this world.Although she didn't explicitly ask for her help just now, after the eldest prince's incident, she will definitely publicize what she said today. With her own testimony, the image of a woman who understands righteousness will be established.
She wants to bet the future of the Xue family on Ji Shengyan.

When Lin Yuzhou went to look for Ji Shengyan, he happened to hear Liu Xianglian's report. When he heard Liu Xianglian say that Xue Pan helped Ji Rong buy a lot of evil beasts to hunt and deal with them tomorrow, he immediately felt strong sympathy for Xue Baochai. It is also a tragedy to have pig teammates, or the kind that the gods of Da Luo can't bring up.
After Liu Xianglian finished speaking, he left, Ji Shengyan pulled Lin Yuzhou to his side, and stroked the hair hanging from his forehead behind his ears.
"He wants to borrow a knife to kill people." Ji Shengyan's "he" refers to Emperor Jialong.
"I guessed it." Lin Yuzhou curled his lips, "Is Wang Ziteng one of his people?"
Ji Shengyan nodded, the prince has put in a lot of effort in this messy situation, the old fox has deceived many people, and now the fox's tail is finally exposed.
Lin Yuzhou chuckled, and said: "Actually, after a careful analysis, we can see that if it weren't for his confidant, how could Emperor Jialong have given the military power of the important capital of the capital to Wang Ziteng? His promotions these years have been very smooth."
Ji Shengyan nodded, and said again: "Tomorrow there will be hunting activities during the day and a banquet at night. I will send someone to follow Lin Ruhai during the hunting. He will be in danger."
A deep light flashed in Lin Yuzhou's eyes, he snapped his fingers, and the sound of "papa" was endless.
Sensing Lin Yuzhou's mood, Ji Shengyan didn't say much, and pulled him to sit in front of the table, reviewing the next plan together.
September seventeenth, the end of the day.
The hunting ground was hunting with banners and flags. Emperor Jialong was wearing armor and riding on a tall horse. The three hunting teams in front spread out in three directions. an arrow.
Emperor Jialong also used to drink horses and rivers. Although he has not used martial arts for many years, he still knows how to shoot arrows. There are many small animals gathered in the middle. He shot a rabbit with a random arrow.
Lin Yuzhou curled his lips, and before he could complain, he found that the herald came out carrying the shot deer. He flattered him, saying that Emperor Jialong was brave and mighty, and that he was blessed by God. Following his words, came the news from the hunting ground The sound of "Long live the emperor" was like a tsunami.
Emperor Jialong laughed three times, announcing the start of the hunt, and at the same time announced a big reward for the top winner.
Turning a rabbit into a deer is a routine. Lin Yuzhou felt that talents were everywhere.He clamped his horse's belly, trotted to Lin Ruhai, and said with a smile, "Father, I will follow you today."
Lin Ruhai flicked the reins, glanced in the direction of Emperor Jialong secretly, and said to Lin Yuzhou: "Go and play with yourself. I will walk around the hunting ground with your Uncle Fu, and we will not enter the dense forest."
Lin Yuzhou raised his eyebrows and told Lin Cong, "Follow the master."
"Okay!" Lin Cong is a lazy guy who is not interested in shooting animals. He led the horse and pushed Lin Chang aside, and followed Lin Ruhai sloppily.
Seeing this, Lin Yuzhou turned his horse's head and galloped towards the forest. When he entered the forest, he happened to meet Ji Rong.
"Lin Xiuzhuan's mount is really handsome, it's a BMW!" Behind Ji Rong, Hou Jinan suddenly sighed with emotion.
Lin Yuzhou chuckled: "The Second Young Master Hou praised it absurdly. This was given to me by a head of a thousand households in Jincheng. If you like it, you might as well go to Jincheng to find it."
Hou Jinan nodded: "There will be a chance."
After hitting the horse into the forest, Lin Yuzhou put away his bow and arrow. He sensed the air flow around him, and easily found the "gift" that Ji Rong gave him and Ji Shengyan.
Once a beast has preyed on a human, it knows that the lethality of a human is not much different from that of a rabbit. In some cases, humans are even better at catching them. They include humans in their food chains, and they will form the habit of cannibalism, so throughout the ages As long as it is a beast that has eaten human flesh, it must be killed.
Lin Yuzhou is not a kind-hearted person, and he will not try to influence these mad and cannibal beasts with a compassionate heart, even if their tragedies are also caused by humans.
After euthanizing a mad bear and a tiger that tried to attack him, Lin Yuzhou encountered the wolf king who was said to have many younger brothers.
This wolf king is very smart, it seems to have noticed that Lin Yuzhou is not easy to mess with, and when he saw Lin Yuzhou, a muffled whimper sounded from his throat, as if threatening or begging for mercy.
Lin Yuzhou stared at the wolf king for a long time, and he felt that he couldn't do it, because he had never seen a wolf that looked so much like a husky in his two lifetimes.With the image of a fool, how did it become the "king"?Relying on the halo of reducing intelligence?
It is said that this Erha King can call out a hundred wolves at once, but Lin Yuzhou stood there for a long time without moving, and finally it crawled on the ground and groaned.
"What are you doing?" Ji Shengyan's voice came.
Lin Yuzhou got out of the way and let Ji Shengyan see the Erha wolf, but to his surprise, when the Erha wolf saw Ji Shengyan, he wailed twice and quickly ran away with his tail between his legs.
"Tell me, is it a wolf or a dog?" Lin Yuzhou asked Ji Shengyan.
Ji Shengyan was also taken aback for a moment, so it's a husky, right?He turned to Ruan Mingyi and said, "Send a message to the guard, if it doesn't hurt anyone, then we won't take its life."
Ruan Mingyi nodded and stepped back.
Lin Yuzhou released the mount and let it move freely. He and Ji Shengyan walked in the dense forest.
"Have all the evil beasts in the forest been dealt with?"
Ji Shengyan let out a "huh" and said, "In addition to the wolf that looks like a dog, there are two left for the boss."
"How did you deal with the corpse?" Lin Yuzhou asked again.
"Give it to the fourth child, as his spoils of war."
Lin Yuzhou cast a glance at Ji Shengyan. There are so many ferocious beasts in the hunting ground, and anyone with a discerning eye can understand what is going on. If they become Ji Zhao's trophies, Ji Zhao will definitely become the target of public criticism.Emperor Jialong's plan to kill someone with a knife failed, and while he had a heart attack, he also had doubts about Ji Zhao.
Ji Shengyan naturally knew what Lin Yuzhou was thinking, and he pulled him sideways to his side, explaining: "Ji Zhao needs to establish his prestige." Show talent, and these twenty or so man-eating beasts are enough.
"That's right, he will have a lot of responsibilities in the future. If he can't keep up, he will be eliminated." Lin Yuzhou moved his ears, and Ji Shengyan grabbed his waist just as he was about to move.
Ji Shengyan locked Lin Yuzhou in his arms, turned around to avoid the arrows shooting at him from four directions at the same time, and then turned around and leaned back to avoid the oncoming sword blade. When the two stood still, they were surrounded by a group of arrows. Men in black surrounded.
Lin Yuzhou leaned against Ji Shengyan's arms, the corners of his mouth curled up. He hadn't enjoyed being protected by him for a long time. He really wanted to thank the group of people in front of him, as well as Emperor Jialong, the instigator behind the scenes.
Lin Yuzhou asked Ji Shengyan with a smile, "Do you want me to do it?"
Ji Shengyan hugged his waist tightly, and bit his earlobe: "Don't make any trouble, leave it to me."
Lin Yuzhou groaned twice, and put half of his body weight on Ji Shengyan. He is a "delicate" young man today and needs careful protection from his lover.
