Reborn Prince Liu Ju

After saying that, Liu Ju didn't give Huo Guang a chance to continue talking, and rushed forward by applauding his horse.

Huo Guang had no choice but to tighten the reins and followed him closely, not daring to leave an inch.

Suddenly, the deer appeared in the sight of the two of them again.The rising sun sprinkled a little bit of sunlight, and the mottled light spots fell on it, and there were dazzling colorful lights, which made people dumbfounded.

"Zimeng, seven-colored deer?!" Liu Ju opened his lips with difficulty, and managed to find his voice.

Huo Guang frowned slightly, and said vigilantly: "Your Highness, this matter is too weird, let's go back?" Huo Guang couldn't tell what was wrong, but his instinct told him that an unknown danger was approaching, and they should leave this place as soon as possible better.

"I don't!" Liu Ju has never been a stubborn person. Most of the time, he is obedient. He rarely refutes other people's opinions. Even if he refuses to adopt them, his attitude is extremely gentle, and he is rarely so tough. .

However, once he made up his mind to do a certain thing, no one could stop him, such as the blatant uprising during the witchcraft incident, or the insistence on hunting that strange deer today...

Huo Guang has known Liu Shi for too long, and he knows his temperament that is gentle and harmless but stubborn but has no way to refute, so when he heard Liu Zheng say "no" with a strong attitude, he gave up. It is possible to continue persuading him.

The voices of the conversation between the two were extremely low, and the deer didn't seem to feel the threat approaching, and was grazing leisurely.

Liu Ju raised his hand, picked up his bow and set up an arrow, aiming at the deer's neck.Just when he was about to shoot the arrow, the deer shook violently, turned around and fled towards the depths of the forest, its speed was unimaginable.

How Liu Ju was willing to let his prey fly with its wings like this, naturally he pursued it relentlessly.

While Huo Guang was chasing Liu Ju closely, he called out to the nearby guards and signaled them to follow quickly.But Liu Ju ran so fast that Huo Guangsheng was afraid of losing him, so he didn't dare to stay longer, so he didn't know how many guards heard his call.

Compared with Liu Ju and Huo Guang who had just arrived, the deer was obviously more familiar with the terrain in the forest.It poked its head out from time to time, using its towering antlers to attract Liu Shi's attention, and then at the next moment, it hid itself without a trace.

Unknowingly, Liu Ju and Huo Guang had followed the deer into the depths of the dense forest where no one was seen.

Liu Ju was only thinking about his prey, and was completely oblivious to the surrounding situation.But Huo Guang frowned deeply. They ran too far, and he didn't even hear the voice of the guards behind him. This situation is not good.

Ganquan Palace is built on the mountain, and the whole mountain can be regarded as the range of the Royal Palace. However, except for the pavilions and pavilions of the palace and the nearby hunting grounds, there are still many places that no one has visited, so there may be unknown monsters lurking. Danger.

Of course, Ganquan Palace is an important place for the royal family, and every road up the mountain is heavily guarded, so it is impossible for idlers to come up the mountain.Therefore, what Huo Guang was worried about was not that a few uninvited guests suddenly appeared in the forest. It was impossible to harm him and Liu Ju.

Huo Guang's greatest worry came from the unfamiliar environment. Who knows what kind of ferocious beasts are in this forest where no one has ever been.Even if there were no ferocious birds and beasts, the snakes, rats, insects and ants in the forest were enough to cause headaches, so he had to be careful.

Just when Huo Guang made up his mind that if Liu Ju wanted to continue to move forward, he would stop him even if he moved his uncle and elder brother out, he heard the sound of a flying arrow piercing the air.

Huo Guang raised his head suddenly, followed the sound, and saw that the off-string arrow shot straight out like a shooting star, hitting the deer's neck.

Xu Shi returned to the place he was familiar with. The vigilance of the deer was obviously not as high as before. When Liu Ju shot the arrow, it didn't react at all, let alone make the movement of fleeing, and quickly responded. fall.

"Zimeng, did you see that, I did it!" Liu Ju raised his bow high and smiled excitedly at Huo Guang.

Huo Guang curled his lips slightly when he heard the words, he was more relaxed now than Liu Zheng's joy.Once the prey has been shot, they don't have to go any further, they can just wait for the guards to find it with peace of mind, and the risk factor is greatly reduced.

At the same time, Huo Guang had to admit that such a lively and carefree His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked very cute.

"Zimeng, let's go and have a look." Liu Ju put his bow behind his back and waved at Huo Guang.

Huo Guang didn't act immediately, but hesitantly said: "Your Highness, let's wait, wait..." Those guards came over.Although the strange deer had been shot by Liu Ju, the strange feeling in his heart did not disappear.

It's a pity that Liu Ju was too curious about the colorful deer, he couldn't wait for the guards to come over, so he hurriedly interrupted Huo Guang: "There is nothing to wait for, it's only a few steps away, they will come here soon, let's go first Let's go and have a look." After saying that, he flattered the horse and left.

What else could Huo Guang say, he could only control the horse and follow, but he was wondering why the guards hadn't followed.

The place where Liu Ju shot the deer was not far away, just a few steps away, and when he saw the gray-brown figure lying in the grass, he said disappointedly: "So it looks like this, I thought it was really seven-colored." It seems that the sun is too strong, they read wrong.

Unlike Liu Ju's obvious disappointment, Huo Guang was slightly relieved when he saw this.Having experienced the witchcraft misfortune during the Zhenghe period, he has always kept a respectful distance from the power of ghosts and gods, but it is not entirely true that he does not believe in it at all, because it is difficult to explain his resurrection from death.

But in any case, Huo Guang is a very cautious person, he has an almost instinctive resistance to things beyond his control.

If the deer was really seven-colored, Huo Guang was afraid that he would turn around and run away with Liu Ju, but it was an ordinary deer, which at least showed that everything was normal.

Before Huo Guang was happy, he heard Liu Ju say again: "But this deer looks pretty." He jumped off the horse and just landed on the side of the deer. Huo Guang was so fast that he couldn't make a sound to stop him.

Immediately afterwards, the deer that was supposed to be dead suddenly jumped up from the ground, as high as half a person, Huo Guang said in surprise: "Your Highness, be careful!"

Liu Ju saw the deer's unusual reaction, but he really didn't have time to make any evasive movements, so he could only watch helplessly.

Fortunately, the deer didn't have the slightest intention of hurting Liu Ju. It walked half a circle around Liu Ju with haughty steps, gave him a strange look, and then shook its head violently. , Turned around and ran away, the speed was like thunder, so fast that people were caught off guard.

Liu Ju could swear that when the strange deer looked at him, there was something in its big eyes, and the writing was densely packed, but unfortunately he couldn't understand it.After it ran away, two things were left on the ground. One was Liu Ju's arrow, which didn't seem to have penetrated very deep, and the other was a pair of deer antlers.

Liu Ju bent down to pick up the antler, guessing wildly in his heart that this deer made such a big circle, maybe it was just to give him the antler. Although this kind of explanation is very unreasonable, it is related to his actions. , but it makes sense.

How could Liu Ju, who was thinking wildly, know that at that moment just now, Huo Guang was so frightened that he almost stopped breathing.

The deer's antlers were so sharp, if it poked at Liu Ju, Huo Guang would not dare to think about it anymore.

Fortunately, things were developing in an optimistic direction. Instead of hurting Liu Shi, the deer gave him a pair of deer antlers. The whole process was full of drama.

Huo Guang took two deep breaths, and asked in a calm tone as much as possible: "Your Highness, are you okay?"

Liu Ju turned around and smiled at him: "Of course. Zimeng, come and have a look."

Huo Guang took a closer look, the pair of velvet antlers were extraordinary, no wonder Liu Ju was so excited, but he still reminded: "Your Highness, it is not suitable to stay here for long, let's go." According to the normal speed, the guards should have arrived long ago, but now, the people around Nothing happened.

Liu Ju didn't object this time, he put the velvet antler into his arms, got on the horse, and walked back with Huo Guang.

But as they walked, Liu Ju sensed something was wrong. Based on the time they spent chasing the deer, they should have reached the place where they separated from the guards. But when he looked up, there were forests in front of him. to a person.

"Zimeng, are we lost?" Liu Ju hesitated to say this.

Huo Guang raised his eyes to the sky and shook his head lightly. They were heading in the right direction and it was impossible to get lost.

Seeing that Huo Guang's judgment was the same as his own, without further ado, Liu Ju patted his horse and rushed to a tree, drew a big cross on it with his sword, turned around and said, "Zimeng, let's continue walking in the same direction as before. .” He had the illusion that they were going in circles.

Sure enough, a quarter of an hour later, Liu Ju saw the fork he had drawn by himself again, and he frowned in confusion.

"Your Highness, we can't stop." Huo Guang understood why the guards couldn't find them.

Liu Ju turned to look at him when he heard the words: "Zimeng, do you know how to get there?" At least he didn't.

Huo Guang nodded silently. In fact, he couldn't say that he knew it. He could only say that he had heard someone mention what to do when encountering "ghosts hitting the wall". There is no other better way.

"That's great, let's go." Liu said with the corners of his lips raised.Huo Guang could see that Liu Ju looked at him with obvious trust in his eyes, which made him smile happily under such a bad situation.

Huo Guang looked around calmly for a week, found a direction, and walked over with Liu Ju.After walking for a short distance, he turned to the right and continued walking.Liu Ju looked suspicious, but followed Huo Guang quietly without asking any questions.

After walking almost the same distance, Huo Guang turned to the right again, and Liu Ju nodded slightly, as if he understood.

At the third turn, Liu Ju could point it out without Huo Guang asking.Huo Guang affirmed Liu Shi's words with a smile, and said, "After this time, we don't have to turn the corner anymore, just go straight." The method is right, whether it works or not will be known immediately.

Although he still didn't meet anyone, Liu Shi never saw the fork he drew again, so he couldn't figure out whether they walked out of that strange place or went further into the depths of the jungle. He started Doubt that I am not acting like myself today.

He once heard from his master that the son of a daughter cannot sit still, and he is the crown prince of the empire, so he should not put himself in such a dangerous situation.Along the way, Zimeng reminded him countless times, don't run too far, don't throw the guards far away, but he didn't listen at all.

Looking back at this moment, what Liu Ju felt was not only fear, but an inexplicable panic. He could hardly understand what he had done.

At that moment, there was only one thought in his mind, that he must hunt that deer, and no one could stop him.But later, the deer ran away, and he picked up the antler. The attachment to it disappeared instantly, and Liu Zheng was a little confused as to what he was doing.

Could it be that that deer is really not a mortal thing, but it has to give the antler to itself whether it wants to die or not, so what is it for?

Liu Ju couldn't figure it out, so he didn't think about it at all, and followed Huo Guang in a daze, walking in the direction he determined.

"Your Highness, Your Highness..." Hearing Huo Guang calling himself, Liu Ju raised his head blankly, "Let's come down and rest for a while, let's drink some water before leaving." Judging from the feeling of hunger and thirst, they were at least in the woods. I have been walking here for half a day.

"Oh, okay." Huo Guang didn't remind Liu Ju that he didn't think so, but after hearing what he said, he realized that he was already hungry.

They all brought water bags with them, and the problem of thirst was easy to solve, but no one was prepared for dry food. After all, they were hunting near the palace. Consider this need.

"Your Highness, don't worry, we'll be out soon, and—" Huo Guang said firmly, "Your Majesty will definitely send people to look for you." If the guards following them can't find the crown prince for a long time, they will definitely go back and report to the prince. The emperor reported it, and then increased manpower to continue searching.

"I understand." Liu Ju didn't doubt at all that Ah Weng would send someone to look for him, but what he was worried about was that they couldn't find anyone.

Thinking about it carefully, from the time he chased the deer into the woods, things went wrong.It is true that the guards were not following him closely when they were helping him drive the deer, but the distance between them was very close, and they could hear each other shouting, but after entering the forest, those guards disappeared.

Could it be that he and Zimeng have been trapped since then, until now.

Liu Ju drank half a sack of water in one gulp, his thirst was gone, but his feeling of hunger became stronger.He wanted to talk to Huo Guang to distract himself from thinking about the fact that he was hungry, but as soon as he raised his head, his eyes suddenly changed.

"Zimeng, don't move." Liu Ju yelled, drew his sword and slashed down, his movements clean and neat.

Huo Guang didn't know why, but he did as he said. Then he followed the sound and saw a colorful snake that had been broken in two under Liu Ju's sword, and he couldn't help but gasped.

You must know that Liu Ju's sword was cut down by rubbing against his calf, that is to say, the snake had already wrapped around his leg.If Liu Zheng's movements were a little slower, he might have been bitten. Judging from the snake's appearance, the possibility of being poisonous is far greater than that of not being poisonous.

Before Huo Guang could say words of thanks and rejoicing, his eyes widened in horror.

It turned out that the snake was not completely dead after being broken into two pieces. Its second half bounced on the ground several times before it gradually stopped moving.But the half of the snake's head rushed towards Liu Ju, and Liu Ju himself was unaware of it.

"Be careful where you step!" Huo Guang yelled in horror, his expression extremely flustered.

Liu Ju stepped back subconsciously, and only half of the little snake slid off his leg, rolled around on the ground, and stopped moving.

"Your Highness, are you injured?" Huo Guang vaguely saw a little blood on the snake's mouth.

"It seems to be..." Liu Ju said uncertainly, he had cut them in half, could that snake still bite?

Huo Guang's complexion changed drastically, and he hurried over, pulled Liu Ju to sit down on the spot, took off his boots, rolled up his trouser legs to check, and comforted him: "Your Highness, it's okay, I'll take a look first, don't be afraid... ..."

Later, he saw two small blood-soaked spots on Liu Ju's calf.

The wound is very small, even if it is left alone, it can automatically stop the bleeding, but...

The blood was not red, but black, and even the surrounding skin was obviously black.

Damn it!That snake is indeed poisonous!

Liu Ju couldn't feel the wound, so he wanted to ask Huo Guang, what happened, did the dead snake really bite him?

But before he could speak, Huo Guang's actions told him the answer.Realizing that the snake was poisonous, Huo Guang didn't think about anything, he bent down and lowered his head, intending to suck out the poisonous blood first, whether it is useful or not, doing it is better than not doing it.

"Zimeng!" Liu Ju's voice had changed.
