As the black shadow fell, there was also the smell of blood from the splashed noodles.

The county magistrate of Jiacheng started screaming "ah", but only halfway through the shouting, he was so frightened that he passed out, and his head fell on Xie Yan's shoulder, unconscious.

Xie Yan was afraid that the leopard was following its scent, so he didn't dare to open his eyes for a while, and hugged Jiacheng slightly trembling.He put his arm to protect Jiacheng's head, thinking that Jiacheng who is so beautiful must love beauty, even if the leopard eats it, he can't eat his face first.

The thing couldn't eat Jiacheng's face anymore, instead, it snorted closer, put its two paws on his shoulders, and licked Xie Yan's face with its rough tongue.

But the leopard didn't know if it thought his face was dirty and had nowhere to sip, it just licked it in a huff and didn't bite him.

Xie Yan boldly opened his eyes and looked, only to realize that it wasn't a leopard that was licking him, but a black dog with muscles all over his body.

Behind the black dog stood a slender and tall figure. He was panting slightly, and the strong smell of blood was coming from him. Half of his body and the tip of his sword were dirty and dripping with blood. The whole figure seemed to have just emerged from a pool of blood. Like a ghost crawling out.

Because of the moonlight behind his back, he couldn't see his face clearly, so there was a movement in his throat, and the black dog suddenly rushed up and bit his collar.Xie Yan thought it was going to eat him, so he shrank back, with a moment of panic in his eyes.

Pei Jun scolded: "Chasing the wind!"

The black dog groaned, wagging its tail and retreated to the side, squatted down on its hind legs and sat down obediently, sticking out its tongue at its owner.

Pei Jun took two steps forward and walked in front of Xie Yan.

Xie Yan's clothes were disheveled and his body was covered with mud.The jade crown that bound her hair had fallen somewhere, and the black hair was covered with sweat sticking to her shoulders.There was no blood on his face, his lips turned red, and the lips were stained with blood that had not been wiped off.

The wiper on the forehead, which was used to cover the wound, has now loosened a part askew, revealing the bruise that has not yet fully healed.

Pei Jun frowned all of a sudden, and his heart felt sore and swollen.

Speaking of the morning, he managed to dismiss the group of ministers who came forward to toast and flatter him, and when he looked back, Xie Yanren was gone.

I asked the palace people, and the palace people said that they seemed to have seen him go to Sumadi with the king of Dongyang County early in the morning. From what he said, it seemed that the king of Dongyang County said that he would take Marquis Pingan to play, and he had probably wandered into the hunting forest at this moment.

The Luming hunting ground is so big, even if you look for it now, you may not be able to meet Tianhe if you find it.

Pei Jun scolded him in his heart that it was Asuka who fled to the forest, found another family so quickly, and changed his family.As soon as he picked up the whip, he laughed at himself who he would like to be with, and what does it have to do with him?He simply turned back and went back to the palace to review the papers.

They were all urgently sent from Beijing, and they had to be sent back after processing.

This is how Pei Jun goes about the spring hunt every year. The people outside finish the game lively, and then he goes out to put on a show when it's time to reward the lottery.Although he felt a little bored, he didn't feel uncomfortable.

But this year, the small table at hand was already full of notebooks, and he couldn't read a word until the pen and ink almost dripped on the notebook.Ning Xi screamed when he came in to deliver the tea, and hurriedly snatched the booklet from him, wiped it carefully, and complained in a low voice: "Your Highness, if you don't care about it, don't read it anymore."

...Is the heart not here?

Pei Jun felt restless for no reason, his mind was not here, where was it? !

Ning Xi didn't make a sound, just tidied up the scattered papers, glanced at him, and said in his heart, "Where is it, it's on the abducted Marquis of Ping'an!"

After a while, Pei Jun really didn't have the heart to deal with official business, so he put his pen down heavily, and got up with a flick of his sleeves: "Go out for a walk alone. There is no need to follow."

As he walked, he somehow reached Sumadi and rode on his black horse named Gongchen.

In fact, he had someone tame a little mare early on. It was a short-footed horse unique to the Southwest. It had short, steady legs and a thick, soft saddle. Even though he was pregnant, it was safe to ride.

Now...it seems to be useless.

He went aimlessly into the depths of the woods.

At this moment, a sudden change occurred!

——Suddenly there were several screams in the distance, shaking countless birds into the air, and then four or five horses ran out carrying several noble sons from aristocratic families, and countless servants fled in all directions.

He frowned slightly, stopped a servant who ran past in panic, and asked him what happened ahead.

The servant's face was covered with blood, but there was no wound on his body. He was trembling, and kept yelling, "Let me go, let me go! Help! There are tigers... no, leopards and tigers... several... Eat, eat people, eat people! Xie, Mr. Xie, he was—”

Mr. Xie? !

Pei Jun's expression changed drastically, and he immediately held him down and asked where he was.

The servant witnessed the leopard tiger tearing the person in half, and was greatly stimulated. He was already scared out of his wits, his eyes were scattered, and he didn't care who was holding him by the collar. He just struggled crazily and couldn't speak clearly.

It wasn't until Pei Jun strangled him out of breath that he hurriedly pointed in a direction.

Pei Jun threw him aside abruptly, casually intercepted a family member, snatched his sword, and rode his horse towards the depths of the dense forest.

Until the fishy smell in the wind became stronger, Pei Jun saw a pool of flesh and blood in the grass in the distance, and his internal organs spilled all over the place, so he grabbed the reins impressively.

It was hard for him to describe how he felt at that moment. If there was a thunderbolt, it might not be too much.

He has seen countless corpses on the battlefield, the ones that fell down and smashed during the siege, the ones whose faces were drenched in hot oil, and the ones whose heads were cut off in half by the battle axe, and he never felt the slightest bit of horror.

But he looked at the pool of blood not far away, and for the first time in his life, he tasted what it was like to feel the bone-chilling fear.

As if an impenetrable iron net covered his head, every breath he took was like a knife's edge gouging out his internal organs.Pei Jun has the habit of confirming whether his opponent is dead or not when he kills an enemy. His horse has been with him for many years, but now he smells the smell of blood, and he naturally leads him forward.

Pei Jun subconsciously tightened his grip on the rein, his mind went blank.

——He didn't want to confirm at all that the puddle of blood, mud and rotten flesh lying there was the person who was snuggling in his arms and begging for a little flower cake yesterday.

He just wanted to eat an extra piece of flower cake, why couldn't he give it to him?

He just lost a child in his womb, why should he be kicked out?

If not, he wouldn't have followed Duan Qingshi to the hunting grounds, he wouldn't have suffered such bad luck, and he wouldn't have been buried in the belly of an animal before he had lived a good life for a few years, without even leaving a whole body behind.

He would still stick to his side, kissing his cheek and neck with a smile, begging for a piece of flower cake.

Pei Jun's hands and feet turned cold in an instant, and he almost rolled off the horse, walking towards the pile of flesh and blood step by step.He couldn't tell if it was Xie Yan from a pile of broken internal organs, and his body had been dragged away by tigers and leopards.

Follow the blood all the way, until you see a group of fluffy heads lying quietly under a tree.

He was stunned for a moment, then quickly stepped forward, brushing away the hair covering his face——

The moment he saw his true face, he was overwhelmed by the overwhelming feeling of suffocation, and after a while, Pei Jun covered his face and smiled.

"..."

It's Mr. Xie, the son of Xie's family, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment.

Not Xie Yan.

It was only at this moment that Pei Jun realized that the fact that "the one who died was not Xie Yan" had become so important to him.

Pei Jun forced himself to calm down, took a deep breath, and thought, no matter how useless Duan Qingshi is, he would never leave Xie Yan alone and run away.Maybe they didn't meet tigers or leopards at all, or maybe they left the hunting forest long ago and went to some place with beautiful mountains and rivers for a tryst.

Compared to Xie Yan being eaten by tigers and leopards, even if someone told him that Xie Yan and Duan Qingshi were hugging and loving each other at the moment, he would be grateful to applaud them.

He raised his sword and got on his horse, and continued to go into the woods along the traces of blood splashed on the grass, looking for clues.Unexpectedly, before taking a hundred steps, he bumped into the person he most wanted to see, and also the person he least wanted to see——

Duan Qingshi.

Duan Qingshi was still in a panic.

He was pinching a piece of crimson clothes and staring blankly in a daze.

But more importantly, Duan Qingshi was alone, and there was no one else around him.

"Pei, Pei Jun?!"

Duan Qingshi looked up and saw him coming out of the forest, as if he saw the savior, and he also saw the King of Hades.Fear, remorse, and anxiety came together, and he even threw away the honorific title of regent, grabbed Pei Jun's clothes incoherently, and explained: "I, I lost him... I lost him... I don’t know there will be tigers and leopards making trouble.”

"What to do? What to do?" He paced around in a panic, not knowing where to start.

Pei Jun's blood rushed to the top of his head in an instant, he dismounted and grabbed Duan Qingshi's collar, and asked coldly: "Duan Qingshi! You took him out to play, why didn't you take a fancy to him?! I thought you were a little bit promising , at least it can keep him safe!"

"I, I don't know..." Duan Qingshi was at a loss, his face was reddened by his collar, "I asked him to wait for me here, and I went to catch rabbits for him... But when I came back, he disappeared... There's blood on the ground, could it be his? Could he have been..."

"Shut up." Pei Jun slammed him against the tree trunk, "He has a good or bad idea, and he will leave your eldest princess's house alone!"

Pei Jun lowered his head and glanced at the piece of clothing in his hand, and immediately regained consciousness, quickly snatched it over and carefully touched the pattern on it.

...This is not Xie Yan's!

Xie Yan was wearing the same batch of Xijiang tribute satin as himself, but he was black, while Xie Yan was red.Although the material of this red rag is extremely luxurious, it is lighter and is mostly used for women's clothing, not the satin that Xie Yan wears.

Duan Qingshi knelt on the ground panicked, Pei Jun had already calmed down.

He handed the Moma's reins to Duan Qingshi's hand, and took out a token from his sleeve. When his hand touched his chest-front skirt again, he paused, and took out a scarf that had been kept next to his body Pa.

This towel was used by Xie Yan on the carriage that left Beijing, it hadn't been washed, and it smelled like him.

Xie Yan likes to touch the handkerchief from his sleeve, as if the handkerchief he stole from his sleeve makes it softer and more considerate to use. I just put it in his sleeve temporarily, and Pei Jun was not allowed to move.

In the morning Ning Xi said that he threw out all Xie Yan's belongings, but it was not the case, the handkerchief was still there.

He didn't know why he didn't lose it at the time, but thinking about it now, maybe it was because he was reluctant.

Pei Jun sneered inwardly, handed all the items to Duan Qingshi, and quickly ordered: "Ride a fast horse and go out of the forest from the direction of Gulai. There are no traces of tigers and leopards there. The journey is safe. There is such a commotion in the hunting ground." , Yan Lingwei must have reached the periphery. After leaving the forest, find Ji Shuxian, give him the token and handkerchief, and let him follow Feng Suo and come in to find someone!"

Duan Qingshi was still in a panic: "Chasing, chasing the wind?"

"A dog! Get out of here!" Pei Jun angrily threw him on the horse's back and slapped the horse's legs hard.

The Mo horse neighed long and painfully, carrying the pale-faced Duan Qingshi and galloped away all the way, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Before Chasing the Wind, Pei Jun didn't dare to miss the opportunity and groped in the forest alone.

He successively picked up some women's accessories, and a piece of jade that fell from the belt.He recognized this jade, it was adorned on Xie Yan's waist an hour ago.But there were sporadic bloodstains on these things.

Pei Jun didn't dare to think, maybe he was injured.

Looking at the direction in which the grass stalks fell, he seemed to be with a woman, heading all the way to the mountains.

Pei Jun deliberately made some noise, if the tigers and leopards were still nearby, he would come towards him instead of chasing Xie Yan - it would be best if Duan Qingshi could improve his skills this time, before he took care of a few tigers and leopards Before, they can find them first with Zhuifeng.

……

Searching all the way like this, he and Zhuifeng almost found the place where Xie Yan and the others lived.

Xie Yan and the others can be regarded as capable, to go so deep and so far.

At this moment, Pei Jun was standing in front of Xie Yan, but Xie Yan didn't dare to open his eyes.

As soon as he moved, Xie Yan was so frightened by the black shadow that he couldn't help shrinking back. He had to half kneel down, lowered himself to be as high as him, and then slowly approached, using his clean left hand to scatter Xie Yan. The broken hair that came down was pinned behind the ears, and he called out: "Don't be afraid, it's Gu."

Hearing it was Pei Jun's voice, the tense string in Xie Yan's mind immediately broke, and he threw himself into his arms, the pain and fear finally surged up.

As soon as he let go of his clenched lips, weeping came out from between his teeth: "Your Highness, I hurt so much..."

Instinctively complain of grievances.

Pei Jun's fingers hung in the corners of his slightly crying eyes, and because his hands were not clean, stained with mud and animal blood, he did not fall, but lightly touched his face with the back of his fingers.

"It's okay, don't be afraid, Gu is here." Pei Jun had mixed feelings in his heart, took a quick look at his injuries, and asked as gently as possible, "Talk to Gu, what have you encountered?"

Xie Yan sniffled, and said confusedly: "The leopard... is eating a hand... it keeps chasing us, so we run..."

Pei Jun asked, "Only leopards?"

Xie Yan thought of the fierce beast's bloody mouth, his face turned pale, and he nodded.

"Okay, okay, don't think about it anymore." Pei Jun immediately hugged him into his arms, stroked his hair to comfort him, "It's okay, Gu has already killed them all."

Xie Yan smelled the salty smell of blood on his body, so thick that it almost covered up his own incense, he blinked his dripping eyes, grabbed his hand and looked over.

Both Pei Jun's sleeves were tied with leather wristbands, but the blood color even showed through the leather.

Is it bleeding inside?

Suddenly being pinched by Xie Yan, Pei Jun gritted his back teeth slightly. After a while, he suppressed the tremor and silently withdrew his arm, calmly coaxing: "...it's okay, don't be afraid, it's not lonely blood."

Xie Yan had always believed in him, so his heart sank a little, but his tears couldn't be stopped.

Pei Jun reached into his sleeve, habitually wanting to touch the handkerchief to wipe his face, but when he stuck his hand in mid-air, he realized that the handkerchief was no longer on him.He uncovered the collar, found a fairly clean piece of underwear, tore it off, and wiped it for Xie Yan.

"It's not good to be lonely," a small piece of white cloth quickly became dirty. Pei Jun knew that he had always cried a lot, but there was really no clean place on his body to tear it off. "The face is so dirty, it will be even uglier when you cry."

Listening to him say that, it seems that he dislikes him being able to cry.

Xie Yan stared at Pei Jun for a while in the mist, then remembered Jiacheng's words "Your Highness doesn't want him anymore", held back his tears, and asked in a trembling voice: "Because I cry a lot, so you don't want me?" Yet?"

Pei Jun was silent for a moment: "How could that be?"

It was this moment of silence that was captured by Xie Yan.He gritted his teeth and pushed Pei Jun away, but when he opened his mouth, a choking sound would come out unconsciously: "Woo... I won't cry, I don't want you to hug me..."

Hearing what he said, Pei Jun paused, still trying to hold him in his arms, frowned and said: "Your leg is injured, you can no longer walk."

"Then I don't want you either."

The more Xie Yan felt that Jiacheng was right, His Highness just didn't want him anymore, so he pushed Pei Jun again annoyed.

Afraid of hurting Xie Yan, Pei Jun had no choice but to let go first.

As soon as he let go, Xie Yan wanted to try to stand up by himself, but his left foot, which was still red and swollen, was completely injured after the violent running, and he couldn't use any strength.

He moved indiscriminately, then fell back to his seat, and the back of his head was protected by Pei Jun, preventing him from hitting the boulder.

Xie Yan was annoyed for a moment, and when Pei Jun's hand slipped down to rub his shoulder, he lost strength while struggling and accidentally kicked him.

It happened that Duan Qingshi also ran to follow the barking of the black dog. He was disheveled, and when he jumped down, he heard voices and hurriedly asked, "Brother Yan?"

He had been following the black dog before, running out of breath, but he was still not as fast as Pei Jun.

Duan Qingshi strode up to the boulder when he heard a loud noise, "Brother Yan, are you alright?!" Looking up, he saw that it was the regent who had fallen on the ground, and his footsteps couldn't help but stop.

Duan Qingshi: "..."

Xie Yan didn't know why he kicked Pei Jun, he obviously didn't use a lot of strength.Just as he was in a daze, he turned his head to look at Duan Qing, and saw his right arm hanging by his side, with blood dripping from his fingertips, whether it was broken or broken.

Duan Qingshi saw how embarrassed the regent was kicked, he was secretly happy, and rushed to get closer: "Brother Yan, I'll help you!"

Just as he was about to take the opportunity to step forward to be courteous—the regent's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he glanced at him.

"..." Duan Qingshi shivered, his feet were sticky.

Pei Jun retracted his gaze and held Xie Yan's kicked foot. Fortunately, his right foot was not injured much. He rubbed it and seemed to guess what Xie Yan was thinking. Hurt, I can't hug you."

Duan Qingshi wanted to say "I can", but before he could open his mouth, he was interrupted by Pei Jun's voice.

Pei Jun emphasized it again: "You can't walk by yourself, or you will suffer from ailments in your feet, and you will have to walk with a limp in the future."

Xie Yan also likes beauty, so naturally he doesn't want to be crippled because of it.

He hesitated for a while, and glanced at Duan Qingshi with the eyes of a waste, so he stretched out his hands and hugged Pei Jun's neck silently.But he was too tired before, so he didn't rest, his hands were still shaking, and he couldn't hang up after lifting it several times. In the end, Pei Jun helped, and he took the initiative to lower his head and get into his arms.

Then he felt his body lighten, and Pei Jun hugged him horizontally.

"Brother Yan..." Duan Qingshi hesitated to speak again.

Pei Jun said: "Prince Dongyang County, if you are free, call someone to bring Jiacheng county magistrate back. She has been with you for five or six years, so she is your childhood sweetheart at least."

Xie Yan raised his ears to listen, and said, "Her leg is broken, be careful."

Duan Qingshi was ashamed and annoyed: "What kind of baby kiss, something unreasonable! Brother Yan, don't listen to his nonsense, I only regard Jiacheng as my younger sister! I, I am the only one to you..."

Before he could finish speaking, Pei Jun's feet picked up the wind, and he flew far away with Xie Yan in his arms.

Duan Qingshi was so angry that he stomped on the spot.

He looked down at the fainted Jiacheng, dragged him on his back resignedly, and yelled at the hound Zhuifeng to find his way ahead.

All the way out, there was a touch of blood in the wind, similar to the smell on Pei Jun's body.

But Pei Jun walked very fast, shuttling among the low branches of the bushes. Several times, Xie Yan was afraid that those branches would poke him, so he had to close his eyes, turn his head to the direction of his chest, and nestle in fear.

When the smell of blood was so strong that it could not be ignored, Xie Yan endured the nausea and opened his eyes to take a look.

With just a few cursory glances, there seemed to be some pieces of flesh and fur in the grass.

But it's not all.

His eyes were sharp, as if he saw someone lying on the ground not far away, some curled up, some looked up to the sky, and they didn't move.

Xie Yan thought that he was hiding from tigers and leopards like himself, so he kindly asked, "Is there someone there..."

Pei Jun kept stepping, but his breathing was not disturbed at all. He turned around to block that side, and said in a gentle and steady voice, "There's nothing over there——you're too tired, maybe you misread it."

Xie Yan couldn't see that side anymore, and his confused and tired mind was not enough to support him to think too much. With a slight movement of his eyes, he landed on Pei Jun's rolling Adam's apple when he spoke.

He tapped it with his hand, it was hard, Pei Jun let him pinch it twice, but did not avoid it.

"Close your eyes and go to sleep."

Now Xie Yan is indeed very tired, and his whole body hurts, almost as soon as he is held in Pei Jun's arms, he can't help but want to sleep.

Just now, when I slept next to Jiacheng, it seemed like I was asleep, and it seemed like I wasn't asleep at all. When I closed my eyes, there was a leopard chasing and biting them.Small stones rolling on the ground can scare him awake.

His Royal Highness's arms kept swaying as he ran, but he felt inexplicably safe, like a nest he was familiar with, he liked it very much, and he didn't want to leave it for a moment.

But Xie Yan still remembered His Highness's grudge, because Pei Jun didn't refute the matter of throwing him away last night at all.

He used to think the chicken was noisy, throw the chicken out of the door, and the chicken would peck his hand angrily.

Xie Yan was so sleepy that he was a little distracted, Ren Fengsheng and Ye Sheng whispered in his ears for a while, he thought wildly for a while, and felt that he could not be inferior to a chicken.So she turned her face, put her forehead against his chest, and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, I like you very much today, but after I finish this sleep, tomorrow..."

His voice became smaller and smaller, almost like the sound of insects, and his body softened in a half-drowsy state.

Pei Jun had to slow down a bit, and turned him upside down, avoiding the fallen leaves and branches under his feet, and listened carefully to what he was going to do tomorrow.

Xie Yan couldn't speak clearly, his voice was nasal, and he was a little angry: "Tomorrow, I don't like you anymore...I still want to..."

"..." Pei Jun concentrated, but after waiting for a long time, there was nothing to say in his arms.

He looked down, and Xie Yan had already fallen asleep halfway through his words.
