Prince Boring and Concubine Qiao Ai
Chapter 19
"Zhao Yuan!"
Zhao Yuan saw someone calling him in the fog, whoever he wanted to come, Prince Zhao Xia, and the young master of the Gong family were riding through the forest on horseback.
"Why are you here alone?"
Zhao Xia looked at the random arrows all over the place, very puzzled, Gong Si frowned when he saw someone's footprints where the random arrows were, and did not make a sound.
"Didn't you mean a competition? You have used up all the arrows, so what else is there?" Zhao Xia smiled triumphantly.
The two said it was like a try, and they also made friends with other aristocratic children of the same age. They each chased their prey. Zhao Xia thought that Zhao Yuan shot for a long time, and the prey ran away, and was going to laugh at it.
Zhao Yuan glanced at Zhao Xia, he looked down on the crown prince in front of him, his writing and martial arts were not good enough, but there were many people who, just because of the words "righteousness and integrity", worked hard to help a mentally handicapped person.He often talks about Gong Si, not because he has any enmity with Gong Si, but because he is jealous, jealous of Zhao Xia, a prince who is not good at thinking, and has a loyal, intelligent and excellent companion like Gong Si, Stay close.
"Didn't you also hunt nothing?" Zhao Yuan saw that the horse was empty, and the two of them also had nothing to gain.
"I was chasing a dog and it suddenly became foggy. What can I do?" Zhao Xia turned his horse's head and said, "I guess the wolf dog is nearby. He took an arrow from me and couldn't run far."
"Then you can look for it nearby." Zhao Yuan suddenly thought of Zhao Ling, and for a moment, he actually hoped that Zhao Xia would shoot randomly in the mist and shoot Zhao Ling to death.The crown prince killed Luo Shizi by mistake, Lord Luo will never let it go.
He rode on his horse, it was so foggy, let's find a way out first.
……
On Zhao Ling's side, thanks to the fog, Zhao Yuan did not catch up.He leaned against the wall and gasped for breath. The foundation of his body was weak, and he was panting heavily after just a few steps.
A hairy head emerged from the grass.
Zhao Ling lowered his head. It was the little wolf dog. The wolf dog licked Zhao Ling's own injured front foot, wagged its tail, and barked.Did the dog come running after him?
He picked up the puppy and checked the wound on his foot. It was an arrow wound, probably the prey that was targeted by some nobleman.
"Over there! I just heard a dog barking!"
Sure enough, the scion who was chasing the puppy followed, and Zhao Ling clearly felt the little wolfdog trembling in his arms.
Zhao Ling thought to himself that the puppy had saved his life. If the puppy hadn't jumped out suddenly, Zhao Yuan's arrow would have hit him.
Whoosh, two more arrows.
The accuracy and strength of this arrow are far better than Zhao Yuan.
He didn't know who it was, but he felt that the voice was quite familiar.Moreover, that man was formidable, in such a thick fog, he could still judge his position, and shot an arrow at the tree trunk behind him.
Zhao Ling rolled on the ground with the wolf dog in his arms, and moved behind the tree on the other side. Through the mist, he barely saw two tall horses, and the beautiful and unique longbow on the horses.
Gong Si?The bow strength is good, but it is still far behind his father!Zhao Ling didn't want to go head-to-head with the children of the Gong family. The Mingquan bow was not for fun. Gongsi is useless now. He has an ordinary bow in his hand, but he may not be able to use it after a while. This tree can be destroyed by a bow and arrow Give the shot and split it in half.
"Gong Budu, it's me! Me, me, me, me!" Zhao Ling stood up holding the injured little wolf dog.
Gong Si tightened the hemp rope and quickly reacted.He was startled at first, and put away his bow, a little panicked to escape.
Zhao Ling reflected on Zhao Lian's previous words and deeds, and was so ashamed that he was speechless. He was really sorry for his old friend's son.
Thinking about Zhao Lian's body, the relationship with Gong Si is really deep. How many times before and after, no matter who the soul is, at the critical moment of life and death, he will encounter Gong Si.
"A Si." The crown prince chased after him on horseback, saw Zhao Ling, and asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"
He has a good impression of the thirteenth brother, and the slap he gave Zhao Yuan before was really a relief.
Zhao Ling's shock had just settled down, so let him rest for a while.
The little wolf dog limped, jumped out of Zhao Ling's arms, hid behind him, and rubbed against his trousers.
Zhao Xia pointed to the little wolf dog and said, "We catch it first, and we will defeat Zhao Yuan. Ah Si, hurry up!"
The little wolf dog looked at Zhao Ling pitifully, his hair shaking like a sieve.
Gong Si pulled up the bowstring, although it wasn't a Mingquan bow, but her posture was pretty tight, the Gong family killed with hundreds of steps, and her bow skills were top-notch, but Zhao Ling suddenly blocked the puppy, which made the prince yell in fright, but Gong Si reacted Quickly, the shot missed abruptly.
"You're crazy!" Zhao Xia was so angry that he was about to swing the whip, Gong Si hurriedly blocked it with his bow, the thirteenth prince was fine, the heir of Lord Luo, he can't be beaten easily.
Zhao Ling admired Gong Si's young age and understanding of the general situation, much better than the few princes he had come into contact with. He picked up the puppy and asked, "Can you send me off? I like this dog very much."
"This one won't work, I'll give you another one later." Zhao Xia wanted to win Zhao Ling.
"I like this one." Zhao Ling sat on the ground and began to play tricks.
The thirteenth prince is good-looking, and his smile is even more beautiful, which makes people tremble. In the previous life, the seventh prince was excellent in other aspects, which completely concealed his handsome appearance. In this life, Zhao Lian's uselessness, on the contrary, highlights the gentle beauty. Face.
Wretched, pitiful, and even more pitiful.Zhao Xia swallowed her saliva, thinking of the group of rouge vulgar fans in the small hall, they are completely inferior to the people in front of them.
It would be nice if such a person wasn't a younger brother.
"Then...I..." Zhao Xia hesitated for a while, "I will send you off, Ah Si, and we will find other prey."
"Thank you, Your Royal Highness." Zhao Ling was relieved, if Zhao Xia persisted, he really didn't know what to do.
Seeing that Zhao Ling didn't have a horse, "Get on my horse, I'll take you back."
"No, no, no... I'll wait for Lord Luo." Zhao Ling wanted to run away, and Luo Yi would definitely suspect him if he went back.It may be difficult to escape later.It's all the fault of these brats, what are you doing wandering around in the woods?In case of encountering any wild animal, there will be no bones left after being eaten.
, He sniffed, the mist was moist and mixed with a bitter taste.
wrong.
It's the smell of human blood.
Is there really a beast?Zhao Ling couldn't see his fingers in the mist, thinking that the forest was not safe, not only wild animals, but also Lord Luo, so he had to quickly find a suitable mountain path to go down the mountain.
The smell of this blood is definitely Zhao Yuan's.
It took too long for Zhao Yuan to leave.Originally, the third prince was chasing after him closely, even if he met Gong Si and Zhao Xia, in order to avoid suspicion, he walked a little slower, and he would not have come here until now.
A scream, across the sky.
Not too far.
"It's Zhao Yuan!" Zhao Xia said without thinking, "A Si, hurry up, Zhao Yuan seems to be in danger!"
Gong Si quickly turned the horse's head and ran towards the screaming sound.
Zhao Ling's yelling from behind was useless at all, this kid was just like his father, once he did something brave, he would never look back.
There are two scars on the little wolfdog in his arms, one is an arrow wound, the other is scratched by sharp claws, such as leopards, tigers, lions, wolves and the like.Zhao Yuan encountered most of these ferocious beasts.Zhao Ling had seen Zhao Yuan's horse. Although that horse was not a thousand-mile horse, it was still of the top grade. It was not good for fighting, but it was absolutely fine for running, unless it couldn't run.
He, Zhao Ling, didn't care whether Zhao Yuan was dead or not. He was already very kind to those who wanted to kill him, and he didn't want to risk his life to save him.But Gong Si couldn't let it go, his Zhao family owed too much to the Gong family, and he must not let Ah Cheng and Lan Yin's only son have trouble.
Before he had time to think about it, Zhao Ling took a few steps, jumped onto Zhao Xia's horse, and kicked the prince directly.
Zhao Ling rode a horse and chased after Gong Si, the smell of blood in the mist became stronger and stronger, and the sound of sex became more and more urgent.He saw a fat tiger biting Zhao Yuan's leg. Zhao Yuan's horse was dead and blood was dragged all over the ground.
Gong Si quickly opened the bowstring in his hand, and it went straight into the tiger's neck, and the tiger bounced sensitively, giving up on Zhao Yuan's calf that was biting him, avoiding the fatal move.Just encountering the danger of life, it aroused the madness of the wild beast. The tiger roared to the sky, turned its attack target, and swooped towards Gong Si.
Gong Si shot an arrow, purely out of desperation to rescue Zhao Yuan, completely without considering that this move would put him in danger, the tiger rushed towards him with all its teeth and claws, and he had no time to dodge, the horse that sat down had the instinct of animal fear , almost frantic, he reined in the horse rope, but he couldn't control it.
"Be careful!" Zhao Yuan, holding one leg, threw a stone at the tiger. Although it was useless, because he couldn't throw it very far.
But the weak voice still made the tiger's feet stagnate. At this moment of stagnation, Zhao Ling caught up with Gong Si on horseback. He jumped from his own horse to Gong Si's, and hugged Gong Si The two of them took advantage of the momentum and both fell to the ground, rolling countless times.
The tiger that rushed over bit the horse's neck, and Gong Si's horse instantly became the tiger's meal.But the tiger didn't enjoy the horse meat. It still remembered the source of the danger, Gong Si, who was crushed by Zhao Ling.
Zhao Ling turned over and stood up. His sword was lost in the chase with Zhao Yuan just now. Now he is unarmed, facing the ferocious tiger slowly approaching with its bloody mouth open, his legs have been gone for a long, long time. shivering.
Both horses were dead, Zhao Yuan's leg was bitten, and there was basically no possibility of escape.
Gong Si's archery skills are excellent, but not in melee combat. He told Zhao Ling that this child lacked actual combat experience after all when he faced the tiger's reaction.
With the enemy in front of us, life and death, Zhao Ling quickly made a judgment, "Don't love to fight, as long as you can live, you will be alone."
Gong Si was stunned, there was no fear in the eyes of the thirteenth prince, but a kind of calmness and calmness.Is this still the thirteenth prince he knew?The unfavored prince who was chased and bitten by a vicious dog, thrown into the ice water and shivering, hung and tied to a flagpole, crying and begging for mercy?
Zhao Ling looked down at the ground and picked up a wooden stick as thick as an arm. This was the most useful weapon within a five paces radius.
Gong Si has Mingquan Bow, but unfortunately not everyone can pull it out, except for the blood relatives of the Gong family, no one can pull that sharp weapon that kills people in one hundred steps.Zhao Ling tried many times in his previous life, but all ended in failure.In this life, he did not expect Zhao Lian's thin body to perform miracles.
The tiger was three steps away from him, circling the two of them.Sharp eyes stared at them closely.For it, the two teenagers are easy prey.Play around before you eat it.
"We can't save Zhao Yuan. We are mortals, and mortals can't save everyone. Do you understand? Look for an opportunity, escape, and leave us alone." Zhao Ling stood in front of Gong Si, "I will find a way to buy time for you."
"No." Gong Si replied without any hesitation, and pulled out the dagger from his waist, "I want to save His Highness, and I want to save you, even if I can't, I can't live alone."
Where did you get your confidence, kid?Do you think this is a docile cat?The situation was deadlocked, and Zhao Ling couldn't change Gong Si's mind.It is not practical to take away after being knocked out, and it is even more impossible to take Zhao Yuan away together.What should he do?In the fog, no one could see what was going on here, let alone rescue them.
He caught a glimpse of the dagger in Gong Si's hand, the dagger was very ordinary and sold for a few pennies in the market, the only thing that was special was the three ugly handwritings engraved on the handle of the dagger.
The little junior sister forgave him after all.
Zhao Ling smiled wryly at himself, okay, if Gong Si doesn't leave, he was saved even if he risked his life, who made Zhao Jingming the godfather of the kid from the Gong family?
Visually measure the distance to the tiger. If the enemy is strong and we are weak, we must strike first.
"Cooperate with me." Without waiting for Gong Si's answer, Zhao Ling squatted down, jumped suddenly, and quickly climbed up the tiger's back, his legs tightly clamped the tiger's abdomen, and he rode on the tiger's body.The wooden stick in his hand crossed the tiger's front teeth, and the tiger opened its mouth wide and bit the wooden stick.
Zhao Ling held both ends of the wooden stick tightly with both hands, and forcibly divided the tiger's mouth into upper and lower halves.The tiger beat and dawdled from side to side, trying to shake off Zhao Ling who was stuck on his back, but Zhao Ling held on tightly to the stick, and shouted with Gong Si, "Help me!"
This is the only opportunity, Gong Si understood, ran past Zhao Ling and the tiger who were struggling, picked up Zhao Yuan on his back, and quickly ran out of the thick fog, he quickly climbed up the big tree next to him, put Zhao Yuan on the tree on the branch.
Seeing that the two of them were safe for the time being, Zhao Ling began to think about how to get out. His wrist was hit, and the pain was overwhelming. It must be a broken bone.He no longer had the strength to trap the tiger, the tiger jumped high and threw him to the ground hard.
He spat out a mouthful of blood, and his mind became clearer. He could see the tiger's movement track, but his body couldn't keep up with his thinking, and he was pinned down by the tiger's paws.
"Pull the bow! Gong Si, your Mingquan!" Zhao Yuan, who had fainted from the pain, woke up slowly on the branch of a tree. He grabbed Gong Si who was about to climb down the tree to help, and broke a few branches. , Pass it to Gong Si.There is no arrow attached to the Mingquan Bow. According to the legend, every time it is opened, it uses local materials. No one in the younger generation has seen the Mingquan Bow opened. They only heard people talking about the Shura Ghost Bow on the battlefield. Gong's Mingquan.
Gong Si pursed her lips, as if she wanted to say something, but seeing Zhao Yuan's expectant eyes, he couldn't say anything.
He couldn't draw the Mingquan Bow at all.
He couldn't draw the magic bow passed down from generation to generation by Gong's descendants.
For so many years, his mother asked him to carry a bow and told him to wait for the opportunity, but his mother couldn't tell where the opportunity was.He only knew that his biological father was able to draw this bow at the age of five, riding and shooting Sirius across the six kingdoms.
"Quick!" Zhao Yuan urged, his hatred for the thirteenth prince had disappeared the moment he saw Zhao Lian running to save him.He didn't know what Gong Si was hesitating about, did he still care about the previous unpleasantness?Zhao Lian was already covered in blood, and just rolled out from under the tiger's claws, and was lucky to be killed.
Gong Si's hands were trembling, he raised his bow, but the moment he touched the bowstring, he knew that he still couldn't pull it away.He didn't resonate with the bow, and the bow didn't respond to his desire. When the concubine mother taught him how to use the bow, she taught him how to feel.
Zhao Yuan was in such a hurry, why was Gong Si hesitating!
Zhao Ling's ribs were broken several times, and blood dripped from the two places on his arms that were bitten. He was thrown back and forth by the tiger, and finally moved to the side of a tree.This is his strategy. If he can't outrun a tiger, he can only use his strength to find a suitable place. As long as he climbs up a tree, the tiger will have nothing to do.He supported his body with the last of his strength and clenched the lowest branch.
Zhao Ling climbed up the first floor, the tiger saw through his plan and was eager to try, but at this moment, the tiger stopped suddenly, turned his head, his eyes sparkled, and he saw the gradually clear face in the thick fog.
"Ah... Ah Si... Ah Si... there is a tiger! Help... Help... Woooooo..."
"Your Highness, let's go!" Gong Si on the tree also saw that face.
Zhao Yuan hugged Gong Si tightly, "Don't go down, it's useless for you to go down, you will lose your life in vain, everything Zhao Lian just did is in vain..."
Zhao Ling looked at the situation on the tree, and Zhao Yuan helped a lot. Although one leg was limped, his arm was still strong.
"Let me go!" Gong Si's martial arts were better than Zhao Yuan's, and he quickly restrained Zhao Yuan. He jumped off the tree and ran towards Zhao Xia.Seeing Gong Si, Zhao Xia wiped away tears, pointed at the tiger and said, "A Si, protect me quickly, the tiger wants to eat me!"
Not enough success but more failure, is Zhao Xia really the prince of Da Chu?Not to mention Zhao Yuan, his ability to keep calm in times of crisis impressed him a lot. Even the fourteenth and fifteenth princes who have grown up are a hundred times stronger than the crying bag in front of them.
Gong Si dragged Zhao Xia to the nearest tree, and dragged Zhao Xia to climb the tree. Behind him, the tiger slowly approached. Zhao Lingmo exhausted his patience and ran away after catching the prey for a long time. He must not let it go here.
Zhao Ling gradually loosened his grip on the branch.The image of Gong Cheng being pierced by random arrows emerged in his mind, and the pain on his body was unaware. Three thousand knives are too late to pay back. Ah Cheng, I owe you this life, and I still have a chance to pay you back. That's great, son.
Barely standing up, Zhao Ling shouted while jumping vigorously, "Come here, come here! Find me! I eat better, come here!"
Gong Si had already dragged the prince up the tree, he turned his head when he heard the sound, the thirteenth prince smiled at him, the smile was as bright as the rising sun, dispelling the darkness of fear, clearing away the deep mist, the smile that he always thought was so obscene, unexpectedly changed It was bright and aboveboard, soul-stirring.
The prince stretched out his hand on the tree and said, "A Si, come up quickly! Let the tiger eat him, and he won't eat us..."
The tiger looked left and right, and finally walked towards Zhao Ling.
Zhao Ling closed his eyes. In his previous life, he was Ling Chi. In this life, he was killed by tigers. His body was not complete.Will Luo Yi shed a tear for him?Will the eldest brother chase after him a prince after his death?And Gong Si...he couldn't see the day when Mingquan Bow was reopened.
"Catch it!" A loud shout came from behind.
Relying entirely on conscious movements, Zhao Ling caught the dagger that flew down.Pulling out the dagger, with the strength of the tree trunk, he jumped high, all the strength of his body was concentrated on his right hand, he had no choice but to die or fight.
Gong Si's dagger fell on a tree and was picked up by Zhao Yuan. The timing was just right, Zhao Ling really didn't want to admit that in the end the one with the best tacit understanding was actually Zhao Yuan.He had already seen clearly Zhao Yuan's move to drop the dagger, Zhao Yuan was waiting, and he was waiting too, waiting for the tiger to approach, waiting for the tiger to relax its vigilance, and then killing it instantly.
The tiger was completely unprepared, and held Zhao Ling's body firmly against the tree trunk. Zhao Ling's chest was severely injured, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. He stabbed the tiger's head with his right hand without hesitation.
At the same moment, a tree branch and a sharp arrow feather pierced through the tiger's heart.
"mother!"
"Aunt Gao!"
Gong Si put down Mingquan Palace, and shouted in unison with Zhao Xia.
Zhao Ling leaned against the tree trunk, the corners of his eyes were wet, and he didn't know whether it was because of the joy of saving his life, or because he met the person he wanted to see so much but dared not meet.
The woman was dressed in a silver hunting suit, holding a longbow, and looked heroic. Her sharp eyes stared at Zhao Ling for a long time.
After the white horse, there are two red-brown horses standing side by side, and a snow-white foal.The man on the horse, with a face as cold as ice, jumped off his horse and strode towards Zhao Ling.
"My lord...I..." Zhao Ling explained weakly, how should he explain?Luo Yi picked up his sword and baggage, as well as his horse.He bypassed the guard for no reason and walked farther and farther along the mountain road. He had nothing to explain to Luo Yi for this obvious behavior of running away from home.
In short, life was saved.
Letting go of his tension and guard, he wanted to sleep, so he had a good sleep, and all the unpleasant questions were left until he woke up.
Falling down softly, Zhao Ling's eyes were dark and he lost consciousness.
Luo Yi caught Zhao Ling and let Zhao Ling lean in his arms. Zhao Ling's injuries made him angry and heartbroken.
Why does he not cherish his body so much every time?In other words, every time it is a little bit short, it will definitely reduce the pain by one point.
It was like this in the previous life, and it is still like this in this life.
Someone nearby carried the tiger's body away, Lord Luo picked up Zhao Ling, and left quietly in full view, leaving everyone with an indifferent back.
The mist in the mountain forest gradually dissipated, and the accompanying imperial physician came in a hurry to treat the third prince. Fortunately, the leg injury was not serious, and there was no muscle or bone injury. He just took the medicine and carried him away to rest.The prince was crying so hard, Gong Si had long been used to it, and his thoughts were on the side of the thirteenth prince.A person he hated so much, he risked his life to save him. At the moment when the tiger rushed towards him, he subconsciously drew the bow, and the branch shot out with astonishing power like a legend.
Mingquan bow, after 20 years, opened the bow again.
Gao Lanyin directed everyone to clean up the scene and found her son in a daze.
A fog suddenly appeared in the mountains, the hunting had to be suspended, and everyone went back to their tents.She didn't see her son and prince, and coincidentally, Luo Shizi also disappeared. She had never seen Luo Yi so flustered, so she volunteered to accompany Luo Yi to the forest to find someone.
She comforted Luo Yi, maybe she was just lost, and it would be fine when the fog cleared, but they found a little pony, and the little pony rubbed against the neck of Luo Yi's mistress, as if eager to express something.The pony led the way, and the three of them walked through the jungle. The smell of blood made them nervous.
When they arrived non-stop, the danger had passed, and it was just a messy scene, which made people terrified.
He never expected that Luo Shizi... was the chance to Mingquan Bow.
It was not the first time she had seen Zhao Lian, but Zhao Lian who had inserted a dagger into the tiger's skull couldn't be equated with the half-dressed one who was relying on her son's broken sleeve.On the contrary, because of that very similar face, it reminded her of another old friend.
Ah Cheng opened the Mingquan bow because of him, and now, she and Ah Cheng's son opened the Mingquan bow because of a young man who looked a lot like him.
"Mother, I..." Gong Si knew that he had failed in his duty, causing the two His Royal Highnesses and Luo Wang's son to be injured in danger, and he, the companion, could hardly escape the blame.
"Follow me back and explain to His Majesty what happened just now." Gao Lanyin waved away the distracting thoughts in her mind, the man was already dead, Ling Chi was three thousand dollars, Zhou Geng personally imprisoned him, and Luo Yi personally carried the coffin for burial.
After his death, he failed to enter the Zhao family's ancestral grave, but slept peacefully in the Luo family's ancestral grave in Mobei.
There is no name or surname on the tombstone, only a poem or four lines.
Confused on the end of the world, the grave of thirty thousand heroes.
Where does the soul go, the white horse steps into the snow cave.
Zhao Yuan saw someone calling him in the fog, whoever he wanted to come, Prince Zhao Xia, and the young master of the Gong family were riding through the forest on horseback.
"Why are you here alone?"
Zhao Xia looked at the random arrows all over the place, very puzzled, Gong Si frowned when he saw someone's footprints where the random arrows were, and did not make a sound.
"Didn't you mean a competition? You have used up all the arrows, so what else is there?" Zhao Xia smiled triumphantly.
The two said it was like a try, and they also made friends with other aristocratic children of the same age. They each chased their prey. Zhao Xia thought that Zhao Yuan shot for a long time, and the prey ran away, and was going to laugh at it.
Zhao Yuan glanced at Zhao Xia, he looked down on the crown prince in front of him, his writing and martial arts were not good enough, but there were many people who, just because of the words "righteousness and integrity", worked hard to help a mentally handicapped person.He often talks about Gong Si, not because he has any enmity with Gong Si, but because he is jealous, jealous of Zhao Xia, a prince who is not good at thinking, and has a loyal, intelligent and excellent companion like Gong Si, Stay close.
"Didn't you also hunt nothing?" Zhao Yuan saw that the horse was empty, and the two of them also had nothing to gain.
"I was chasing a dog and it suddenly became foggy. What can I do?" Zhao Xia turned his horse's head and said, "I guess the wolf dog is nearby. He took an arrow from me and couldn't run far."
"Then you can look for it nearby." Zhao Yuan suddenly thought of Zhao Ling, and for a moment, he actually hoped that Zhao Xia would shoot randomly in the mist and shoot Zhao Ling to death.The crown prince killed Luo Shizi by mistake, Lord Luo will never let it go.
He rode on his horse, it was so foggy, let's find a way out first.
……
On Zhao Ling's side, thanks to the fog, Zhao Yuan did not catch up.He leaned against the wall and gasped for breath. The foundation of his body was weak, and he was panting heavily after just a few steps.
A hairy head emerged from the grass.
Zhao Ling lowered his head. It was the little wolf dog. The wolf dog licked Zhao Ling's own injured front foot, wagged its tail, and barked.Did the dog come running after him?
He picked up the puppy and checked the wound on his foot. It was an arrow wound, probably the prey that was targeted by some nobleman.
"Over there! I just heard a dog barking!"
Sure enough, the scion who was chasing the puppy followed, and Zhao Ling clearly felt the little wolfdog trembling in his arms.
Zhao Ling thought to himself that the puppy had saved his life. If the puppy hadn't jumped out suddenly, Zhao Yuan's arrow would have hit him.
Whoosh, two more arrows.
The accuracy and strength of this arrow are far better than Zhao Yuan.
He didn't know who it was, but he felt that the voice was quite familiar.Moreover, that man was formidable, in such a thick fog, he could still judge his position, and shot an arrow at the tree trunk behind him.
Zhao Ling rolled on the ground with the wolf dog in his arms, and moved behind the tree on the other side. Through the mist, he barely saw two tall horses, and the beautiful and unique longbow on the horses.
Gong Si?The bow strength is good, but it is still far behind his father!Zhao Ling didn't want to go head-to-head with the children of the Gong family. The Mingquan bow was not for fun. Gongsi is useless now. He has an ordinary bow in his hand, but he may not be able to use it after a while. This tree can be destroyed by a bow and arrow Give the shot and split it in half.
"Gong Budu, it's me! Me, me, me, me!" Zhao Ling stood up holding the injured little wolf dog.
Gong Si tightened the hemp rope and quickly reacted.He was startled at first, and put away his bow, a little panicked to escape.
Zhao Ling reflected on Zhao Lian's previous words and deeds, and was so ashamed that he was speechless. He was really sorry for his old friend's son.
Thinking about Zhao Lian's body, the relationship with Gong Si is really deep. How many times before and after, no matter who the soul is, at the critical moment of life and death, he will encounter Gong Si.
"A Si." The crown prince chased after him on horseback, saw Zhao Ling, and asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"
He has a good impression of the thirteenth brother, and the slap he gave Zhao Yuan before was really a relief.
Zhao Ling's shock had just settled down, so let him rest for a while.
The little wolf dog limped, jumped out of Zhao Ling's arms, hid behind him, and rubbed against his trousers.
Zhao Xia pointed to the little wolf dog and said, "We catch it first, and we will defeat Zhao Yuan. Ah Si, hurry up!"
The little wolf dog looked at Zhao Ling pitifully, his hair shaking like a sieve.
Gong Si pulled up the bowstring, although it wasn't a Mingquan bow, but her posture was pretty tight, the Gong family killed with hundreds of steps, and her bow skills were top-notch, but Zhao Ling suddenly blocked the puppy, which made the prince yell in fright, but Gong Si reacted Quickly, the shot missed abruptly.
"You're crazy!" Zhao Xia was so angry that he was about to swing the whip, Gong Si hurriedly blocked it with his bow, the thirteenth prince was fine, the heir of Lord Luo, he can't be beaten easily.
Zhao Ling admired Gong Si's young age and understanding of the general situation, much better than the few princes he had come into contact with. He picked up the puppy and asked, "Can you send me off? I like this dog very much."
"This one won't work, I'll give you another one later." Zhao Xia wanted to win Zhao Ling.
"I like this one." Zhao Ling sat on the ground and began to play tricks.
The thirteenth prince is good-looking, and his smile is even more beautiful, which makes people tremble. In the previous life, the seventh prince was excellent in other aspects, which completely concealed his handsome appearance. In this life, Zhao Lian's uselessness, on the contrary, highlights the gentle beauty. Face.
Wretched, pitiful, and even more pitiful.Zhao Xia swallowed her saliva, thinking of the group of rouge vulgar fans in the small hall, they are completely inferior to the people in front of them.
It would be nice if such a person wasn't a younger brother.
"Then...I..." Zhao Xia hesitated for a while, "I will send you off, Ah Si, and we will find other prey."
"Thank you, Your Royal Highness." Zhao Ling was relieved, if Zhao Xia persisted, he really didn't know what to do.
Seeing that Zhao Ling didn't have a horse, "Get on my horse, I'll take you back."
"No, no, no... I'll wait for Lord Luo." Zhao Ling wanted to run away, and Luo Yi would definitely suspect him if he went back.It may be difficult to escape later.It's all the fault of these brats, what are you doing wandering around in the woods?In case of encountering any wild animal, there will be no bones left after being eaten.
, He sniffed, the mist was moist and mixed with a bitter taste.
wrong.
It's the smell of human blood.
Is there really a beast?Zhao Ling couldn't see his fingers in the mist, thinking that the forest was not safe, not only wild animals, but also Lord Luo, so he had to quickly find a suitable mountain path to go down the mountain.
The smell of this blood is definitely Zhao Yuan's.
It took too long for Zhao Yuan to leave.Originally, the third prince was chasing after him closely, even if he met Gong Si and Zhao Xia, in order to avoid suspicion, he walked a little slower, and he would not have come here until now.
A scream, across the sky.
Not too far.
"It's Zhao Yuan!" Zhao Xia said without thinking, "A Si, hurry up, Zhao Yuan seems to be in danger!"
Gong Si quickly turned the horse's head and ran towards the screaming sound.
Zhao Ling's yelling from behind was useless at all, this kid was just like his father, once he did something brave, he would never look back.
There are two scars on the little wolfdog in his arms, one is an arrow wound, the other is scratched by sharp claws, such as leopards, tigers, lions, wolves and the like.Zhao Yuan encountered most of these ferocious beasts.Zhao Ling had seen Zhao Yuan's horse. Although that horse was not a thousand-mile horse, it was still of the top grade. It was not good for fighting, but it was absolutely fine for running, unless it couldn't run.
He, Zhao Ling, didn't care whether Zhao Yuan was dead or not. He was already very kind to those who wanted to kill him, and he didn't want to risk his life to save him.But Gong Si couldn't let it go, his Zhao family owed too much to the Gong family, and he must not let Ah Cheng and Lan Yin's only son have trouble.
Before he had time to think about it, Zhao Ling took a few steps, jumped onto Zhao Xia's horse, and kicked the prince directly.
Zhao Ling rode a horse and chased after Gong Si, the smell of blood in the mist became stronger and stronger, and the sound of sex became more and more urgent.He saw a fat tiger biting Zhao Yuan's leg. Zhao Yuan's horse was dead and blood was dragged all over the ground.
Gong Si quickly opened the bowstring in his hand, and it went straight into the tiger's neck, and the tiger bounced sensitively, giving up on Zhao Yuan's calf that was biting him, avoiding the fatal move.Just encountering the danger of life, it aroused the madness of the wild beast. The tiger roared to the sky, turned its attack target, and swooped towards Gong Si.
Gong Si shot an arrow, purely out of desperation to rescue Zhao Yuan, completely without considering that this move would put him in danger, the tiger rushed towards him with all its teeth and claws, and he had no time to dodge, the horse that sat down had the instinct of animal fear , almost frantic, he reined in the horse rope, but he couldn't control it.
"Be careful!" Zhao Yuan, holding one leg, threw a stone at the tiger. Although it was useless, because he couldn't throw it very far.
But the weak voice still made the tiger's feet stagnate. At this moment of stagnation, Zhao Ling caught up with Gong Si on horseback. He jumped from his own horse to Gong Si's, and hugged Gong Si The two of them took advantage of the momentum and both fell to the ground, rolling countless times.
The tiger that rushed over bit the horse's neck, and Gong Si's horse instantly became the tiger's meal.But the tiger didn't enjoy the horse meat. It still remembered the source of the danger, Gong Si, who was crushed by Zhao Ling.
Zhao Ling turned over and stood up. His sword was lost in the chase with Zhao Yuan just now. Now he is unarmed, facing the ferocious tiger slowly approaching with its bloody mouth open, his legs have been gone for a long, long time. shivering.
Both horses were dead, Zhao Yuan's leg was bitten, and there was basically no possibility of escape.
Gong Si's archery skills are excellent, but not in melee combat. He told Zhao Ling that this child lacked actual combat experience after all when he faced the tiger's reaction.
With the enemy in front of us, life and death, Zhao Ling quickly made a judgment, "Don't love to fight, as long as you can live, you will be alone."
Gong Si was stunned, there was no fear in the eyes of the thirteenth prince, but a kind of calmness and calmness.Is this still the thirteenth prince he knew?The unfavored prince who was chased and bitten by a vicious dog, thrown into the ice water and shivering, hung and tied to a flagpole, crying and begging for mercy?
Zhao Ling looked down at the ground and picked up a wooden stick as thick as an arm. This was the most useful weapon within a five paces radius.
Gong Si has Mingquan Bow, but unfortunately not everyone can pull it out, except for the blood relatives of the Gong family, no one can pull that sharp weapon that kills people in one hundred steps.Zhao Ling tried many times in his previous life, but all ended in failure.In this life, he did not expect Zhao Lian's thin body to perform miracles.
The tiger was three steps away from him, circling the two of them.Sharp eyes stared at them closely.For it, the two teenagers are easy prey.Play around before you eat it.
"We can't save Zhao Yuan. We are mortals, and mortals can't save everyone. Do you understand? Look for an opportunity, escape, and leave us alone." Zhao Ling stood in front of Gong Si, "I will find a way to buy time for you."
"No." Gong Si replied without any hesitation, and pulled out the dagger from his waist, "I want to save His Highness, and I want to save you, even if I can't, I can't live alone."
Where did you get your confidence, kid?Do you think this is a docile cat?The situation was deadlocked, and Zhao Ling couldn't change Gong Si's mind.It is not practical to take away after being knocked out, and it is even more impossible to take Zhao Yuan away together.What should he do?In the fog, no one could see what was going on here, let alone rescue them.
He caught a glimpse of the dagger in Gong Si's hand, the dagger was very ordinary and sold for a few pennies in the market, the only thing that was special was the three ugly handwritings engraved on the handle of the dagger.
The little junior sister forgave him after all.
Zhao Ling smiled wryly at himself, okay, if Gong Si doesn't leave, he was saved even if he risked his life, who made Zhao Jingming the godfather of the kid from the Gong family?
Visually measure the distance to the tiger. If the enemy is strong and we are weak, we must strike first.
"Cooperate with me." Without waiting for Gong Si's answer, Zhao Ling squatted down, jumped suddenly, and quickly climbed up the tiger's back, his legs tightly clamped the tiger's abdomen, and he rode on the tiger's body.The wooden stick in his hand crossed the tiger's front teeth, and the tiger opened its mouth wide and bit the wooden stick.
Zhao Ling held both ends of the wooden stick tightly with both hands, and forcibly divided the tiger's mouth into upper and lower halves.The tiger beat and dawdled from side to side, trying to shake off Zhao Ling who was stuck on his back, but Zhao Ling held on tightly to the stick, and shouted with Gong Si, "Help me!"
This is the only opportunity, Gong Si understood, ran past Zhao Ling and the tiger who were struggling, picked up Zhao Yuan on his back, and quickly ran out of the thick fog, he quickly climbed up the big tree next to him, put Zhao Yuan on the tree on the branch.
Seeing that the two of them were safe for the time being, Zhao Ling began to think about how to get out. His wrist was hit, and the pain was overwhelming. It must be a broken bone.He no longer had the strength to trap the tiger, the tiger jumped high and threw him to the ground hard.
He spat out a mouthful of blood, and his mind became clearer. He could see the tiger's movement track, but his body couldn't keep up with his thinking, and he was pinned down by the tiger's paws.
"Pull the bow! Gong Si, your Mingquan!" Zhao Yuan, who had fainted from the pain, woke up slowly on the branch of a tree. He grabbed Gong Si who was about to climb down the tree to help, and broke a few branches. , Pass it to Gong Si.There is no arrow attached to the Mingquan Bow. According to the legend, every time it is opened, it uses local materials. No one in the younger generation has seen the Mingquan Bow opened. They only heard people talking about the Shura Ghost Bow on the battlefield. Gong's Mingquan.
Gong Si pursed her lips, as if she wanted to say something, but seeing Zhao Yuan's expectant eyes, he couldn't say anything.
He couldn't draw the Mingquan Bow at all.
He couldn't draw the magic bow passed down from generation to generation by Gong's descendants.
For so many years, his mother asked him to carry a bow and told him to wait for the opportunity, but his mother couldn't tell where the opportunity was.He only knew that his biological father was able to draw this bow at the age of five, riding and shooting Sirius across the six kingdoms.
"Quick!" Zhao Yuan urged, his hatred for the thirteenth prince had disappeared the moment he saw Zhao Lian running to save him.He didn't know what Gong Si was hesitating about, did he still care about the previous unpleasantness?Zhao Lian was already covered in blood, and just rolled out from under the tiger's claws, and was lucky to be killed.
Gong Si's hands were trembling, he raised his bow, but the moment he touched the bowstring, he knew that he still couldn't pull it away.He didn't resonate with the bow, and the bow didn't respond to his desire. When the concubine mother taught him how to use the bow, she taught him how to feel.
Zhao Yuan was in such a hurry, why was Gong Si hesitating!
Zhao Ling's ribs were broken several times, and blood dripped from the two places on his arms that were bitten. He was thrown back and forth by the tiger, and finally moved to the side of a tree.This is his strategy. If he can't outrun a tiger, he can only use his strength to find a suitable place. As long as he climbs up a tree, the tiger will have nothing to do.He supported his body with the last of his strength and clenched the lowest branch.
Zhao Ling climbed up the first floor, the tiger saw through his plan and was eager to try, but at this moment, the tiger stopped suddenly, turned his head, his eyes sparkled, and he saw the gradually clear face in the thick fog.
"Ah... Ah Si... Ah Si... there is a tiger! Help... Help... Woooooo..."
"Your Highness, let's go!" Gong Si on the tree also saw that face.
Zhao Yuan hugged Gong Si tightly, "Don't go down, it's useless for you to go down, you will lose your life in vain, everything Zhao Lian just did is in vain..."
Zhao Ling looked at the situation on the tree, and Zhao Yuan helped a lot. Although one leg was limped, his arm was still strong.
"Let me go!" Gong Si's martial arts were better than Zhao Yuan's, and he quickly restrained Zhao Yuan. He jumped off the tree and ran towards Zhao Xia.Seeing Gong Si, Zhao Xia wiped away tears, pointed at the tiger and said, "A Si, protect me quickly, the tiger wants to eat me!"
Not enough success but more failure, is Zhao Xia really the prince of Da Chu?Not to mention Zhao Yuan, his ability to keep calm in times of crisis impressed him a lot. Even the fourteenth and fifteenth princes who have grown up are a hundred times stronger than the crying bag in front of them.
Gong Si dragged Zhao Xia to the nearest tree, and dragged Zhao Xia to climb the tree. Behind him, the tiger slowly approached. Zhao Lingmo exhausted his patience and ran away after catching the prey for a long time. He must not let it go here.
Zhao Ling gradually loosened his grip on the branch.The image of Gong Cheng being pierced by random arrows emerged in his mind, and the pain on his body was unaware. Three thousand knives are too late to pay back. Ah Cheng, I owe you this life, and I still have a chance to pay you back. That's great, son.
Barely standing up, Zhao Ling shouted while jumping vigorously, "Come here, come here! Find me! I eat better, come here!"
Gong Si had already dragged the prince up the tree, he turned his head when he heard the sound, the thirteenth prince smiled at him, the smile was as bright as the rising sun, dispelling the darkness of fear, clearing away the deep mist, the smile that he always thought was so obscene, unexpectedly changed It was bright and aboveboard, soul-stirring.
The prince stretched out his hand on the tree and said, "A Si, come up quickly! Let the tiger eat him, and he won't eat us..."
The tiger looked left and right, and finally walked towards Zhao Ling.
Zhao Ling closed his eyes. In his previous life, he was Ling Chi. In this life, he was killed by tigers. His body was not complete.Will Luo Yi shed a tear for him?Will the eldest brother chase after him a prince after his death?And Gong Si...he couldn't see the day when Mingquan Bow was reopened.
"Catch it!" A loud shout came from behind.
Relying entirely on conscious movements, Zhao Ling caught the dagger that flew down.Pulling out the dagger, with the strength of the tree trunk, he jumped high, all the strength of his body was concentrated on his right hand, he had no choice but to die or fight.
Gong Si's dagger fell on a tree and was picked up by Zhao Yuan. The timing was just right, Zhao Ling really didn't want to admit that in the end the one with the best tacit understanding was actually Zhao Yuan.He had already seen clearly Zhao Yuan's move to drop the dagger, Zhao Yuan was waiting, and he was waiting too, waiting for the tiger to approach, waiting for the tiger to relax its vigilance, and then killing it instantly.
The tiger was completely unprepared, and held Zhao Ling's body firmly against the tree trunk. Zhao Ling's chest was severely injured, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. He stabbed the tiger's head with his right hand without hesitation.
At the same moment, a tree branch and a sharp arrow feather pierced through the tiger's heart.
"mother!"
"Aunt Gao!"
Gong Si put down Mingquan Palace, and shouted in unison with Zhao Xia.
Zhao Ling leaned against the tree trunk, the corners of his eyes were wet, and he didn't know whether it was because of the joy of saving his life, or because he met the person he wanted to see so much but dared not meet.
The woman was dressed in a silver hunting suit, holding a longbow, and looked heroic. Her sharp eyes stared at Zhao Ling for a long time.
After the white horse, there are two red-brown horses standing side by side, and a snow-white foal.The man on the horse, with a face as cold as ice, jumped off his horse and strode towards Zhao Ling.
"My lord...I..." Zhao Ling explained weakly, how should he explain?Luo Yi picked up his sword and baggage, as well as his horse.He bypassed the guard for no reason and walked farther and farther along the mountain road. He had nothing to explain to Luo Yi for this obvious behavior of running away from home.
In short, life was saved.
Letting go of his tension and guard, he wanted to sleep, so he had a good sleep, and all the unpleasant questions were left until he woke up.
Falling down softly, Zhao Ling's eyes were dark and he lost consciousness.
Luo Yi caught Zhao Ling and let Zhao Ling lean in his arms. Zhao Ling's injuries made him angry and heartbroken.
Why does he not cherish his body so much every time?In other words, every time it is a little bit short, it will definitely reduce the pain by one point.
It was like this in the previous life, and it is still like this in this life.
Someone nearby carried the tiger's body away, Lord Luo picked up Zhao Ling, and left quietly in full view, leaving everyone with an indifferent back.
The mist in the mountain forest gradually dissipated, and the accompanying imperial physician came in a hurry to treat the third prince. Fortunately, the leg injury was not serious, and there was no muscle or bone injury. He just took the medicine and carried him away to rest.The prince was crying so hard, Gong Si had long been used to it, and his thoughts were on the side of the thirteenth prince.A person he hated so much, he risked his life to save him. At the moment when the tiger rushed towards him, he subconsciously drew the bow, and the branch shot out with astonishing power like a legend.
Mingquan bow, after 20 years, opened the bow again.
Gao Lanyin directed everyone to clean up the scene and found her son in a daze.
A fog suddenly appeared in the mountains, the hunting had to be suspended, and everyone went back to their tents.She didn't see her son and prince, and coincidentally, Luo Shizi also disappeared. She had never seen Luo Yi so flustered, so she volunteered to accompany Luo Yi to the forest to find someone.
She comforted Luo Yi, maybe she was just lost, and it would be fine when the fog cleared, but they found a little pony, and the little pony rubbed against the neck of Luo Yi's mistress, as if eager to express something.The pony led the way, and the three of them walked through the jungle. The smell of blood made them nervous.
When they arrived non-stop, the danger had passed, and it was just a messy scene, which made people terrified.
He never expected that Luo Shizi... was the chance to Mingquan Bow.
It was not the first time she had seen Zhao Lian, but Zhao Lian who had inserted a dagger into the tiger's skull couldn't be equated with the half-dressed one who was relying on her son's broken sleeve.On the contrary, because of that very similar face, it reminded her of another old friend.
Ah Cheng opened the Mingquan bow because of him, and now, she and Ah Cheng's son opened the Mingquan bow because of a young man who looked a lot like him.
"Mother, I..." Gong Si knew that he had failed in his duty, causing the two His Royal Highnesses and Luo Wang's son to be injured in danger, and he, the companion, could hardly escape the blame.
"Follow me back and explain to His Majesty what happened just now." Gao Lanyin waved away the distracting thoughts in her mind, the man was already dead, Ling Chi was three thousand dollars, Zhou Geng personally imprisoned him, and Luo Yi personally carried the coffin for burial.
After his death, he failed to enter the Zhao family's ancestral grave, but slept peacefully in the Luo family's ancestral grave in Mobei.
There is no name or surname on the tombstone, only a poem or four lines.
Confused on the end of the world, the grave of thirty thousand heroes.
Where does the soul go, the white horse steps into the snow cave.
