The ancestral jade pendant is actually a space, so you don't need to panic when fleeing from fa

"Also, don't act too nervous, or people will notice something." Yu Qingshu said again with concern.

After listening to this, Yu Qinghai started walking to the front of the team, preparing to explain the situation to the village chief first.

In a forest five kilometers away is the Dongshan Maple Forest.

The maple forest in Dongshan is mostly made up of maple trees. Due to the change of seasons, the maple leaves are gradually turning red. From a distance, it is a sea of ​​red everywhere.

In an open space, a group of people were roasting a pheasant on a pile of firewood. The pheasant looked to be only two or three pounds and not too fat.

Looking closely, isn't this Yuan Xichen and his group? This time, there are six people around Yuan Xichen, Chen Yi and Yuan Yi are also there.

"I spent a lot of effort to catch this pheasant. You must roast it carefully and don't make it dirty. We don't have much water with us."

Chen Yi stared at the pheasant in Yuan Yi's hand and reminded him that there were no prey nearby and they only saw this pheasant after hunting for a long time.

"I know, I know. There's only one pheasant, and there are so many of us. I don't think there will be enough to share.

We have to wait until the prince has eaten before we can have our share. No need for you to remind me, I will definitely roast it well."

Faced with Chen Yi's admonitions, Yuan Yi felt that Chen Yi, a big and strong man, was really fussy.

Yuan Xichen sat aside, closing his eyes to rest. He showed no excessive expression towards the fight.

The pheasant was quickly roasted to a golden color, even though only a little salt was added, but the aroma soon drifted into everyone's nose.

Even Yuan Xichen, who was used to a life of luxury, swallowed his saliva unconsciously.

In order to avoid being seen, they did not bring much food this time, and this pheasant was a rare piece of meat.

"Master, the pheasant is roasted, you can eat first." Yuan Yi cut the pheasant into small pieces, put them in a white porcelain bowl, and handed it to Yuan Xichen respectfully.

"Well, it looks good. Keep the chicken leg and share the rest among you."

Yuan Xichen looked cold, but he was actually quite nice to his subordinates in private, and now they all shared the same fate.

"Thank you for the reward, Master." Yuan Yi happily shared the remaining chicken with the other people. There weren't many pheasants, but it was still good for everyone to have a taste.

"Well, it's really good. I didn't expect game to be so delicious. This is the first time I've eaten it."

Chen Yi's mouth was full of oil, but he did not forget to comment on the pheasant.

It was such a pleasant feeling for five or six people to eat pheasant while appreciating the surrounding scenery.

"My Lord, I have discovered that there are about a hundred refugees gathered three miles away from us, and almost everyone of them has a big knife in his hand.

"I heard that those people seemed to be plotting something, and I was afraid of alerting them. I did not move forward and came here to report to my master first."

Yuan Xichen had just finished eating the pheasant and was elegantly wiping the corners of his mouth with a brocade handkerchief. Then An Qi's voice rang in his ears.

"Just continue to follow secretly and don't alert the enemy. Report to me if anything happens."

Yuan Xichen stood up and squinted his eyes to look in the direction of the refugees. The situation was unclear, and this group of people were probably not good people.

"Subordinates, obey your orders." An Qi disappeared in a flash. The ancients' lightness skills were really amazing.

"Yuan Yi, tell the others to follow me to the southeast. I guess something will happen soon, so be prepared to respond at any time."

Yuan Xichen squeezed the string of red beads in his hand and used his inner strength to sense the surroundings. He found that there were hundreds of people walking towards this side not far away. It seemed that this group of people were being targeted by this group of refugees.

After all, they were a group of unarmed civilians. As a prince, Yuan Xichen could not stay out of it.

"Subordinates, yes! You three stay to protect the prince, and the rest of you follow me."

When Chen Yi heard Yuan Xichen's words, he did not dare to be careless. After all, the prince had encountered many assassination attempts, and he didn't know whether this time was aimed at the prince.

"Your Highness, do you want to find a place to rest? After all, there are so many refugees, and I'm afraid they might get hurt."

Yuan Yi was a little worried about Yuan Xichen's health. Although he was a great martial artist, he was still suffering from internal injuries. It would be better to avoid them if possible.

"It's okay. I know my own body well. You guys observe secretly, but remember not to alert the enemy."

Yuan Xichen waved his hand indifferently, and in a few breaths he arrived at the place where An Qi and his men were ambushing.

"What's the situation? Have you observed carefully what they are going to do?" Yuan Xichen asked when he saw An Qi wearing a hay ring on his head and looking forward.

"Your Highness, I have just found out that they are planning to rob a group of people fleeing famine ahead. They have spies already stationed in a certain area. I estimate they will take action soon."

When An Qi saw that his prince was very good at Qinggong, he naturally admired him even more.

"Remember this later. Take action when necessary and lead the people into the woods to minimize casualties."

Yuan Xichen looked at the group of refugees in front of him who were eager to try, but he was alone and could only help as much as possible.

Afterwards, Yuan Xichen, along with a few of his entourage, continued to secretly follow the group of refugees with knives. Seeing them approaching little by little, Yuan Xichen became anxious, but it was too late to notify anyone, so he could only wait and see what happened.

The maple forest is not far away.

Village chief He Qiang learned about Yu Qingqing's family's instructions and also found many strong men in the village to stand guard around the village. Everyone had a nervous look on his face.

"Village chief, I think Yu Qingqing and the others are worrying too much. How could such a coincidence happen?"

An old lady nearby was speaking in dissatisfaction. The old lady was none other than Aunt Ge who had a bad relationship with Yu Qingqing's family.

"You ignorant woman, what do you know? Don't talk nonsense everywhere, or you will suffer the consequences." Village chief He Qiang knew what kind of person Aunt Ge was, so he naturally wouldn't listen to her.

"Humph! I wonder how powerful that little bitch is and whether she can predict the future." Seeing that the village chief did not accept the challenge, Aunt Ge walked away with a groan.

In another part of the maple forest, the wolf cub was flattering his boss to take credit for his achievements.

"Boss, see what I said was right, this group of people are really fat sheep. Look at how much food they have. If we snatch it all, it will be enough for us to eat for most of half a month."

The wolf-like bearded man stared at Yu Qingqing and his group with sharp eyes.

"Well, that's right. Listen to my command and move at full speed now and be ready for action immediately. Kill all the men and leave the women and children to me."

The man called the boss began to give orders, and suddenly a group of refugees holding swords quickly approached Yu Qingqing and the others.

"Good men, come on! There are delicious food and women waiting for you." Some of the refugees began to shout and cheer.
