Immortal of Quick Transmigration, why are you blackened again?

Chapter 8
"It's okay." Wu Bingning sniffed, and although her eyes were slightly red, she put on a determined look: "I'll go by myself, the rain will stop after a while."

"Then let her go." Ling Yao turned her head and didn't bother to look at her, "None of you are allowed to follow!"

"You" refers to only one person.

But it was obvious that Lingyao's words fell on deaf ears.

When Duan Xiuran was riding a horse with Wu Bingning who was limping and was about to set off, the sky was cloudy and rainy, and the refreshing wind was blowing in front of him, making him feel a little wet.

Lingyao had no choice but to follow up quickly, jumped onto Taxue's back, stopped in front of them and said, "I'll go with brother Ran, but you want to be a burden by following me like a cripple?!"

Wu Bingning probably knew that she did not have such a sharp tone and temperament, so she turned her head softly and said, "Xiu Ran..."

"No problem." Sure enough, Duan Xiuran said, "It's just that the princess has golden branches and jade leaves. She really shouldn't go to the deep mountains and old forests."

"Okay." Lingyao just felt that these two people were very unreasonable, and just about to reject Er Qi, she exploded: "Host, it has been detected that the target of the attack, Duan Xiuran, will be in danger of life in the next three hours!"

The words Lingyao came to her mouth were stunned by her, but she suppressed them back, and changed her words: "If you must be with her, then stay at the racecourse. I will go to gather medicine, and I will be back soon."

"Princess is a precious person, there is absolutely no reason for that." Duan Xiuran's carefully carved side face, like a creator, in Lingyao's eyes is an out-and-out obsession, which is really annoying.

"Besides, the princess has agreed just now."

"when!"

"Just now you said 'yes'."

"I haven't finished talking at that time..." Lingyao sneered back, and then she had an idea, and continued: "What I want to say is, well, I will follow wherever Duan Xiuran is going!"

"The princess is a woman, how can it be so... so..." Wu Bingning was stopped by Lingyao's unkind eyes in the middle of her words: "So what?"

"Xiuran..." Wu Bingning turned her face slightly, and buried her face in Duan Xiuran's chest.

He didn't protect her this time, and Lingyao was not so angry for the time being, but her behavior was really disgusting.

"Let's go, although it's dark and late, but the situation in the mountains is complicated, we really may not be able to come back before sunset." Lingyao said, waved her hand, summoned Yuqiao, and threw the token at her waist to She said: "If we haven't returned by sunset, we have to go to Pingyang Hou Mansion to rescue soldiers anyway, do you understand?"

Yuqiao didn't say anything, held the token tightly, bowed his head and said: "Yes, princess."

"Drive!" With a coquettish voice, Taxue galloped towards the mountains and forests.

Duan Xiuran looked at the fiery red figure, with an incomprehensible brilliance flashing in his eyes, but unwilling to be left behind, he galloped away.

If there are any important ceremonies or hunting held here, the servants of the horse farm will start to clear the forest and drive away the ferocious beasts about a month in advance, but people will not think about going up the mountain in this season, after all, the mountain is vast, Although half of them are enclosed within the scope of the horse farm, the other half is nothing, connected to the wilderness. I don't know if there will be any beasts coming in to look for food and settle down.

Lingyao only hoped to quickly find the herbal medicine for treating bruises and leave the place of right and wrong as soon as possible.

It would be great if I could know what kind of trouble Duan Xiuran will encounter. Who knows whether this is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster?

Lingyao sighed, got off the horse and searched carefully.

There was still water vapor in the forest, the ground was extremely muddy, and the knee-high grass was still dripping with rain, exuding a slight chill, soaking through her clothes, making her feel a dull pain in her knees.

But she has to hurry, otherwise the night will be full of dreams.

Behind them are Duan Xiuran and Wu Bingning, they followed slowly not far away, because Wu Bingning's ankles were really difficult to move, so they had to sit on the horse, the forest was lush and the horse was inconvenient to gallop, so they had to be led by Duan Xiuran Walk slowly.

Taxue was walking around freely not far away, while Lingyao was searching carefully on the sunny hillside. Suddenly her eyes lit up, and there really was it!
It was a Panax notoginseng with water droplets rolling on its leaves. This thing is still very suitable for treating bruises.Lingyao picked the herbs and put them in the cloth bag on her waist, turned around to look, but was stunned.

I saw Taxue froze in place, moving back slowly and slowly, and obliquely in front of it—right in front of Wu Bingning and Duan Xiuran, a huge but yellow and emaciated tiger was dormant by the side, eyeing it covetously. As if waiting for them to make a move, and then greet them.

Lingyao finally understood what Erqi's so-called dangers and troubles were. The tiger seemed certain to win. After all, there were three people and two horses present, and one would be enough to eat—after all, it looked like it was going to be crazy hungry. up.

Hunger is something that can make all living beings lose their reason and conscience, Lingyao understands it very well.

Wu Bingning's face was pale, and she held the rein tightly with her hands, not even daring to make a sound; Duan Xiuran's right hand quietly held the hilt of the saber, and a fierce look appeared on his jade face that he had never seen before.

It seems that Duan Xiuran also knows that either it dies or they die.

For a moment, it was as if a life-and-death game had reached a fever pitch. Neither side acted rashly. However, under this superficial stalemate, there was actually a hidden murderous intent.

Duan Xiuran gave Lingyao a wink, signaling her to go first, and then quickly patted the back of Wu Bingning's horse. The horse neighed and sped away, while the tiger took this opportunity to pounce on Duan Xiuran. It's a pity that Duan Xiuran was nimble and dodged all of a sudden.

The long sword was out of its sheath, and the cold light was exposed. The tiger bared its long teeth fiercely. Lingyao hid aside with Taxue—it was impossible for her to leave, and even if something happened to her, Duan Xiuran could not be hurt a little.

After comforting Ta Xue, she raised her eyes to look at the overcast sky. It was a little difficult to tell the time, but the situation was urgent and she couldn't care less.

On the other side, Duan Xiuran was in a stalemate with the tiger for a long time. Although there were several sword wounds on the tiger's body, Duan Xiuran's arm was also cut by the tiger's claws. The force was not light, and his clothes were broken and blood flowed Not only that, but some bones can be seen faintly.

That beast must have a meal.

Lingyao untied the long whip around his waist, the beast was cunning, and rushed towards Duan Xiuran's feet. He threw himself on his head.

Duan Xiuran probably didn't expect it, but it was too late when he realized it. At the very moment, a long whip swung forward and swung at the tiger's fragile abdomen, causing it to cower back a bit.

Duan Xiuran's sword was propped on the ground, supporting his somewhat exhausted body. His face was beautiful, but at this moment he was pale and his brows were furrowed—he had never been so miscalculated: "Why are you back?!"

"Don't worry, I won't die, and your Pingyang Hou Mansion won't be blamed for it." Ling Yao didn't even look at him, and didn't relax her vigilance at all.

Duan Xiuran was slightly stunned, he always knew how to hide his thoughts, and he has done so well over the years, perhaps because of the special circumstances today, she actually saw through his thoughts.

He is the son of your family, although he is proficient in the six arts and can even march and fight, but he has no experience in fighting these ferocious beasts close to hand to hand.

Looking at Lingyao, the only princess born in the Zhao family, even though she has a broad vision, she is so calm in front of such a behemoth... Thinking about it carefully, every time she is unruly and willful, it seems that she is taking the pain for him with danger.

"Don't be in a daze." Lingyao said, "Treat me with my own way—give me your sword."

Lingyao threw the whip to him: "You know how to use a whip?"

"En." Duan Xiuran nodded, and then heard her continue: "Listen, my physical strength is better than yours now, so you are the target and I am the arrow."

She finally looked at him, her clear eyes were like polished gemstones washed by clear water, reflecting his somewhat embarrassed face: "You, trust me?"

As a man, as a subject, he should not let her take risks due to emotion and reason, but when he looked into her eyes, those soul-stirring eyes, he unexpectedly nodded.

Then, Duan Xiuran picked up the whip and swung it vigorously towards the left side of the tiger. The beast naturally hid to the right, but Lingyao on the right side was already waiting there. throat.

The blood was almost gushing out and splashed on her red dress, making it impossible to see the color; a few drops of warm blood fell on her fair cheeks, like two plum blossoms blooming on the snow-covered ground.

The sky suddenly flashed and thundered, and it rained cats and dogs as soon as they said it. Lingyao held on to the sword, her knees hurt like needles, and she fell to her knees all at once, letting the rain wash away the blood on her body.

Suddenly, someone picked her up.

The man had a cold smell, but his embrace was unusually warm.She raised her eyes and saw Duan Xiuran's tight jawline and his delicate facial features.

They found a cave to shelter from the rain.

It was raining hard outside, but Lingyao's legs were aching. She broke free from Duan Xiuran's embrace, found a drier place to sit down, and hugged her legs tightly.

This seemed... to reduce the pain, she glanced at the man guarding the door, and breathed a sigh of relief: Fortunately, the danger was finally saved.

Duan Xiuran sat at the entrance of the cave without turning his head, but Lingyao could hear his voice: "Princess rest at ease, I will watch over you."

Thinking that nothing happened, Lingyao was a little tired and didn't bother to answer anymore, and gradually fell asleep leaning against the stone wall.

When she woke up again, the cave was pitch black, the sound of rain outside had stopped, and the moonlight shone on the ground, giving her some vision.

Lingyao noticed that the familiar cold smell lingered on the tip of her nose from the clothes she was wearing. She subconsciously looked in the direction of Duan Xiuran, and through the moonlight she saw that the man was leaning against the entrance of the cave wearing only his middle coat, still holding her tightly in her arms. The sword that saved their lives.
