My daughter was sold, I want to divorce her and go back to my parents' home to escape the famin

Gu Huaining had sharp eyes and did not miss any subtle changes. Suddenly, she stopped and stared at the stream not far ahead.

It turned out that there was a cute little deer drinking water leisurely.

Its soft fur gleams with a faint luster under the sunlight, and its slender limbs stand gracefully, like a beautiful painting.

Gu Huaining was excited, but she immediately signaled her sisters to keep quiet and not make any sound to alarm the extremely vigilant little deer.

Then, she bent down and tiptoed towards the back of the deer. The sisters understood her intention and cooperated with each other very well.

They slowly approached the deer from different directions, each trying to make their footsteps as light as possible so as not to alert the deer.

Finally, when the little deer just raised its head and seemed to sense something strange, the sisters seized the opportunity and quickly threw out the big net that had been prepared in their hands.

This big net fell from the sky like a dragnet, accurately covering the deer.

The little deer, trapped by the sudden big net, suddenly panicked and struggled desperately in the net, trying to break free and regain its freedom.

However, the net was so strong that no matter how hard the deer tried, it was useless.

Seeing the little deer so frightened and helpless, Gu Huaining couldn't help but feel a surge of pity in his heart.

She quickly walked to the fawn, squatted down, gently stroked the fawn's head, and whispered in a gentle voice: "Don't be afraid, little one, we won't hurt you."

Perhaps feeling Gu Huaining's kindness and care, the deer gradually stopped struggling, and the fear in its eyes eased a little.

Afterwards, Gu Huaining and her sisters cooperated with each other and worked together to carefully lift the trapped fawn.

They walked very carefully, afraid that they would accidentally hurt the poor little guy, and so they walked slowly towards the camp.

Along the way, the sunshine shone on them, reflecting their cheerful figures.

The sisters laughed and talked happily, talking about the tension and excitement they had just experienced when rescuing the fawn, and were also excited about the successful capture.

Time passed quietly, and the hunting competition gradually came to an end. The people who participated in the hunting returned to the imperial farm one after another. Everyone had a smile on their face and held various prey they had captured in their hands.

Some were carrying hares, some were carrying pheasants, and some were holding some unknown small animals.

These prey not only represent their harvest, but also show their efforts and strength in this activity.

At this time, the emperor and his ministers had already sat upright on the referee's bench, examining each group of prey presented with serious and focused expressions.

They carefully observed the type, size and number of prey, and comprehensively evaluated the performance of each team based on these factors, and then carefully gave the corresponding scores.

Finally, under everyone's expectant gaze, the results of the competition were officially announced!

In the adult group competition, a battle-hardened warrior stood out. With his superb archery skills and indomitable bravery, he successfully captured a large number of precious prey and deservedly won the championship.

When the news was heard, the whole audience burst into warm applause and cheers to congratulate the brave general.

In the boys' group, it was the small team led by Gu Huaiyuan and his two cousins ​​that shined brightly.

Although they are still young, they have excellent teamwork spirit and sharp observation skills. During the hunting process, they have a clear division of labor and work closely together, not missing any opportunity to catch prey.

In the end, they caught the most prey and won the victory with absolute advantage.

When their victory was announced, the three children jumped up with excitement and hugged each other to celebrate this hard-earned honor.

Among the girls' group, the cute little deer captured by Gu Huaining and her sisters was escorted back to the camp early.

However, what was strange was that these little girls had not returned yet, and the other people present had no idea where they had gone.

At this moment, the emperor slowly stood up, with a gratified smile on his face, and loudly announced the final result of the hunting competition.

He first expressed his sincere congratulations to all the participants in this event, and then said, "In today's hunting competition, I have witnessed the extraordinary courage and wisdom displayed by you, my dear ministers and children. This spirit is truly rare. I hope that you will fully apply it in your daily lives and government affairs in the future. Together, we can contribute to the prosperity of our great Zhao State."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present knelt down and kowtowed to express their gratitude.

For a moment, the cheers that rose one after another were like surging waves, once again resounding over the entire imperial farm and echoing for a long time.

At this point, this exciting, passionate and challenging hunting competition finally came to a successful conclusion in an atmosphere of joy, peace and supreme glory.

After a brief pause, the emperor turned to look at Lord Gu beside him, his face filled with concern. He smiled and instructed, "Mr. Gu, you should quickly send someone to find your three granddaughters! The competition is now over. In my opinion, based on the deer they captured alone, these three princesses are well-deserved champions of the girls' group. There's really no need to hunt more prey."

The emperor, high and mighty, raised his lips slightly in a playful smile, and said with great interest, "I know everything! Last night, that old Protector of the Country personally led his men to drive all those ferocious beasts deep into the forest!"

When everyone heard this, they nodded in agreement.

After all, the girls' competition venue was located in the outer area, far away from the dangerous depths of the forest.

In this way, it is naturally safe and no accidents will happen.

Because of this, everyone present was full of confidence in this competition, firmly believing that the three princesses would be able to complete the competition smoothly and would never encounter any dangerous situations.

But no one had expected that fate always likes to play tricks on people. Just when everyone thought everything was safe, the real danger came quietly like a ghost.

At the same time, deep in the forest which was so quiet that it seemed isolated from the world, Gu Huaining and her sisters were groping forward cautiously and nervously.

The bright sunlight struggled to penetrate the layers of lush branches and leaves, and fell on the ground like fine gold, forming patches of mottled light and shadow of various shapes and light and dark.

The air is filled with the rich smell of damp earth, as if every breath you take can smell the most primitive and simple scent of nature.

After safely sending a cute little deer back to the camp, the three Gu Huaining sisters immediately embarked on another hunting trip.

However, fate seemed to be playing a little joke on them at this moment - when they came across a fat rabbit, they excitedly chased it all the way, but unknowingly got lost in this vast and mysterious forest, and could only wander around like headless flies.

"Huaining, do we really have to keep going forward? This deep forest looks so gloomy and scary..."

Gu Xiaoya's voice trembled slightly, and the fear contained in it was clearly audible. At this moment, she tightly grasped the bow and arrow in her hand, and her beautiful eyes scanned the dark and deep woods around her anxiously.

Faced with his sister's timidity, Gu Huaining showed extraordinary calmness and courage.

Her gaze remained steadfast as she spoke soothingly, "Since we've come this far, why not explore further? Perhaps even rarer and more unique prey are hidden deeper in the forest. Don't worry! As long as everyone is cautious, nothing will happen. Besides, didn't Grandfather send someone to clean up the area last night? It shouldn't be too dangerous."

However, the younger Gu Xiaowan was obviously not comforted by her sister's words.

She tightly grasped the corners of Gu Huaining and Gu Xiaoya's clothes, and muttered in an almost pleading tone: "Sisters, why don't we get out of here quickly! I always have a very bad premonition in my heart. I feel that this place is too unsafe..."

As she spoke, her body shrank involuntarily, and the trembling and fear in her voice became more and more obvious.

At this moment, a low and shocking roar came from afar like thunder, as if to tear the entire forest apart.

This sudden roar was like a sledgehammer hitting the calm lake surface, instantly breaking the long-standing silence of the forest.

The sisters were startled by the roar and trembled all over. Their relaxed expressions disappeared in an instant, replaced by faces full of fear and tension.

Like frightened deer, they quickly huddled together, their bodies tightly pressed against each other, as if only in this way could they gain a sense of security.

Everyone unconsciously clenched their weapons, and the originally cold metal was now slightly warm due to tension.

Gu Xiaoya frowned. She knew that she couldn't panic at this moment, so she raised her right hand and gently made a gesture of silence, indicating that everyone should keep quiet.

Then, she crouched down and slowly approached the source of the sound with light steps. Seeing this, Gu Huaining and Gu Xiaowan followed her carefully, not daring to breathe.

When they finally struggled to push aside an unusually dense bush, the scene before them left everyone stunned.

I saw an extremely huge black beast lying quietly on the ground, like a small hill.

Its shiny black fur is covered with strange and mysterious patterns, attracting attention like an ancient totem.

Each pattern flickers faintly under the sunlight, as if containing some unknown power.

The beast's body was strong and powerful, its muscles were as taut as if they were made of steel, rising and falling with its breathing, emitting a chilling and powerful aura.

All around it, there were some animal remains scattered around, blood dyed the ground red, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

Obviously, these were the spoils it had just hunted. But at this moment, the beast was still not full and was still staring ahead with a fierce look, looking for its next target.

"What...what kind of monster is this!" Gu Huaining's face was full of horror, and his voice trembled as he lowered the volume, as if he was afraid that his voice would anger that terrible existence.

Gu Xiaoya, who was standing by, was also frightened, but she was a few years older and had experienced some storms, so she quickly forced herself to calm down.

She calmed herself down, fixed her eyes on the beast, and began to observe it carefully.

The beast was huge, with strong muscles and covered with a thick layer of fur. Its sharp fangs were exposed from the corners of its mouth, flashing a heart-pounding cold light.

The most eye-catching thing was its leg, where a deep wound was clearly visible. Blood was gushing out from it like a dark red stream, slowly flowing out and dyeing the surrounding grass a shocking blood red.

Perhaps because it sensed someone approaching quietly, the beast suddenly raised its head, and its eyes, as big as copper bells, shone with an extremely fierce light, looking straight in the direction where Gu Huaining and Gu Xiaoya were hiding.

Then, it opened its bloody mouth and let out another deafening roar. The roar was like rolling thunder, exploding in the air and making people's eardrums hurt.

Faced with such a horrifying scene, the three sisters were almost frightened to death and retreated backwards involuntarily.

In panic, they began to wave the weapons in their hands uncontrollably, as if doing so could give them some sense of security and courage.

Gu Huaining was extremely anxious at this time. She knew very well that if they could not come up with a countermeasure quickly, they would probably become food for this beast, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

However, at this critical moment, a sudden flash of inspiration came to her mind - she remembered that there seemed to be a tree hole not far ahead.

Although the entrance to the cave is not big, it may be just enough for them with their petite figures to fit in.

Thinking of this, Gu Huaining was overjoyed, as if she suddenly saw a ray of light in the darkness, and that ray of light appeared before her like a life-saving straw.

Without giving it any time to think, she quickly turned around and shouted at the sisters behind her, "Quick! Let's run to that tree hole up ahead! Maybe that'll be a safe haven for us to escape danger temporarily!"

Before she finished speaking, she took a step forward without hesitation and ran towards the tree hole like an arrow.

At the same time, she held Gu Huaining and Gu Xiaowan tightly with her left and right hands. The three sisters worked together, exerted all their strength, and ran towards the tree hole that Gu Xiaoya pointed to like three frightened deer.

Fortunately, the tree hole was not too far away from them. Not long after, the three of them arrived at the bottom of the tree hole, panting.
