Traveling through ancient times: daily life on the run

Qin Luojue successfully escaped from the palace with the little prince's maids. During the period, a maid became suspicious and glanced at her a few more times. Luojue secretly gave the maid two taels of silver, but the maid cleverly remained silent.

Beyond Jinglong Gate, one arrives at the flat rear garden, its artificial landscape reminiscent of a combination of imperial and Jiangnan gardens. To the west lies the training grounds, where the young princes enjoyed martial arts competitions. To the east, the Jiangnan waterside landscape, with pavilions, terraces, and waterside pavilions, resembles an ancient painting.

In addition to some guards accompanying the princes and the crown princes, the maids went to the east and entered a row of houses, busying themselves around. Luo Yu took the opportunity to take out the luggage from the wooden box, slung a shoulder bag over his left side, put the backpack in front, and hid a dagger in the sleeve pocket.

She first found a rockery, hid herself carefully, and waited quietly for all the maids to leave before she dared to move out quietly.

After staying there for most of the day, I was hungry and could only eat hard steamed buns. The water bottle I brought was not big, so I couldn't drink too much.

As it got dark, the little princes came out of the forest. When they passed by the rockery, Luo Yu heard their conversation.

"Third brother, I heard that the white tiger hasn't been found yet. Should we stay a few more days and try to capture it alive together?"

"Fifth brother, the White Tiger is more than twice your height when it stands up. You still want to capture it alive? Do you think you can only hit the target seven times out of ten?"

Judging from his voice, the third brother was only thirteen or fourteen years old and was in the process of voice change. The so-called fifth brother was only twelve years old at most. At that age, hitting the target seven times out of ten was already very good. Luo Yu remembered that when he was twelve years old, he seemed to be secretly reading the Resident Evil comic book in class.

But a group of kids wanted to catch a white tiger, they were really like newborn calves that were not afraid of tigers.

What? There's a white tiger in the mountains? How can we escape?

Luo Yu touched the dagger. Although she was not sure how strong this body was, the difficulty of killing the white tiger by her own strength seemed to be about the same as the difficulty of this group of kids shooting the white tiger. So, should she leave or not?

If she didn't leave and stayed in the palace, her life would be worse than death. If the Queen ever remembered Concubine Ying, it would only be a matter of time before she thought of how to kill her.

I still have to go. It is better to die in the mouth of a white tiger than to be killed in palace fighting.

When it was completely dark and the guards were guarding the intersections, Luo Yu could only sneak into the woods and climb the mountain, not caring whether there were insects or snakes. If her life was destined to end, she would not be allowed to live even a second longer.

She ran for a while holding her breath, and only when she saw that she was getting farther and farther away from the palace gate did she dare to breathe lightly.

She found a stick and tapped the grass along the way. With the moonlight and stars shining brightly, she made a relatively smooth journey. After walking for about half an hour, she felt exhausted. After a short rest, she decided to head east out of the forest, preferably overnight. Who knew if anyone would go up the mountain to look for the white tiger early tomorrow morning? If she was discovered, she would be doomed.

Based on his observations over this period of time, around the middle of the Yin hour, Luo Yu found a steep rock. After walking around it, he discovered a cave more than two meters high. Not bad, thinking that this place was some distance away from the palace, he decided to rest for half an hour before continuing.

As soon as the person walked in, he was stunned and didn't move.

A pair of royal blue eyes as big as copper bells stared at her fiercely, as if waiting for her for a long time.

Luo Yu slowly took a few steps back, reaching into her sleeve and pulling out a dagger. She was so calm that she only considered the possibility of both sides being killed or escaping without a fight. Others had gone through immense hardships to find this white tiger, so why was she always so lucky?

She stepped back step by step, but suddenly the white tiger opened its bloody mouth and rushed towards her.

Luo Yu took out his dagger and prepared to stab those big eyes directly, but Baihu suddenly calmed down and did not move.

"Sister Luo Yu, please don't be so angry. Please calm down."

"..."

The word "sister" made Luo Yu's cold heart tremble.

"Are you Xia Liang?"

After all, Qin Bingrui only calls her by her name or calls her sister.

"Sister Luo Yu, please put down the dagger first, and let's talk it over."

Xia Liang was still holding back a sentence in his heart: Sister, do you really think you can kill a big tiger with just a dagger? Naive.

How could she know that Luo Yu only wanted to stab the white tiger's eyes. It was a dead end anyway, so he would not let the big tiger walk out of the forest alive.

After putting away the dagger, Luo Yu breathed a sigh of relief and touched Xia Liang's furry head with his hand. The stench of tiger was suffocating.

Xia Liang insisted on sitting next to her. She was so happy to see Sister Luo E. She remembered that it was Sister Luo E who saved her from the zombie swarm when she was fourteen. Since then, she has followed Sister Luo E all the way to upgrade and grow. Of course, she knows how powerful Sister Luo E is. If she uses her battle-hardened body in this world, she may not be her opponent with the white tiger she transformed into, right?

But now Sister Luo Yu looks frail, with a pale face and her beautiful features make anyone who looks at her feel pitiful.

If the woman in front of him was not Sister Luo Yu, anyone would be fooled by her adorable appearance.

"Sister Luo Yu, you look so miserable."

"..."

Hearing Baihu's stomach rumbling a few times, Luo Yu asked, "Xia Liang, are you hungry?"

"Well, I haven't eaten meat for five or six days. I've been relying on climbing trees to eat wild fruits. Fortunately, the fruits are riper now and not so sour."

"Are you climbing a tree to avoid the people chasing you?" Luo Yu guessed almost everything as soon as he heard it.

"Sister Luo Yu is really smart. I once climbed a huge tree to pick wild fruits, and someone chased me. Fortunately, I climbed high enough and the leaves were dense enough, so no one found me. Later, I thought this hiding method was good. Whenever I heard any movement, I would immediately hide in the tree."

"Fortunately, the trees here are big, otherwise you would have fallen with your weight."

"I've lost a lot of weight recently. I used to weigh over 600 pounds, and I'd be out of breath if I ran too much. Now that I'm more agile, I can only weigh 570 or 580 pounds at most."

"..."

Luo Yu touched Baihu's head, and a wave of sadness surged in his heart.

"Xia Liang, sister will never let you suffer again."

"Sister, you're the one who's really had it hard. You came from the palace, right? I used to think I was unlucky enough to be transformed into a white tiger, but knowing that Sister Luo Yu is in the palace, I feel very lucky."

Luo Yu nodded and asked her, "How did you know I came out of the palace? Have you been waiting for me here?"

"Well, Brother Bingrui told me that his dreams seemed to be precognitive."

"Oh, that's quite good."

Luo Yu didn't want to waste time by talking too much, so he took out a piece of vegetable cake and fed it to Baihu to fill his teeth.

As soon as Xia Liang opened his mouth, the pancake disappeared.

"Even though I brought a dozen vegetable cakes and a few steamed buns, you can't finish them all in one bite. So, how about you go hunting and I roast the meat for you?"

Luo Yu knew that Xia Liang was picky about food. She would rather climb trees to eat wild fruits than eat raw animal meat. He thought he could only help her roast it.

"Sister Luo Yu, I've never hunted small animals before."

"It's okay, you have physical memory. Hunting is Da Hu's forte."

"You know, I like small animals the most. They are so cute."

"It tastes delicious too! Go ahead, be good!"

You can't say Xia Liang is being pretentious. In the end of the world where the three of them live, not to mention the various living small animals, even an ant will be infected with the virus and die. Except for the plants on the earth, all animals are basically wiped out.

Now the world has people and animals, it is alive and full of life. Even if they don't live as freely, it is better than having only the three of them left at the end of the world.
