Zhou Shiyue kept looking at the cave entrance.

He sat on a broken tree, one hand on his leg, supporting his chin, his eyes fixed on the hole.

Finally, he saw a head popping out of the cave and he stood up suddenly.

"Lu Er is coming up!"

Lu Zhaoling climbed up, and the cloth bag on his back was already a little bulging.

She waved over here and walked towards the pit next to her. After taking a look, she sighed.

A lot of animals were really crushed to death.

These animals have been living in Weiming Mountain. Originally, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was abundant here, and it was considered an animal paradise (except for the fact that it was used as a hunting ground, which was a bit miserable).

But I never expected that one day this place would become a burial place for so many animals.

There was an earthquake before.

She was afraid that if the dragon vein was not repaired, there would be one or several larger earthquakes.

It is said that in ancient times, there was a war between two countries, and one side specially sent people to dig up and cut off the dragon vein of the other side.

Once the dragon vein is broken, the fortune of the entire country will decline instantly, and natural disasters and man-made disasters are likely to occur.

Now she doesn't know how the dragon vein of Da Zhou was damaged.

When Lu Zhaoling came back, Zhou Shiyue looked at her, then reached out and turned her around manually to look behind her.

Lu Zhaoling was spun around like a top in his hands and was a little dazed.

"What?"

"See if you're missing any piece of meat." Zhou Shiyue said with a sigh, "I didn't expect that you, Lu Er, can not only climb trees, but also jump into pits. Did you have a lot of fun in the countryside?"

Lu Zhaoling rolled her eyes at him.

"I need to look around some more."

"one person?"

"That's wishful thinking, but you have to follow suit."

Zhou Shiyue breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that she would order him to stay where he was again.

Young Marquis Zhou and his companions left the mountain.

The guards looked behind them and saw that they all looked unhappy.

"Young Marquis, I wonder if you have ever met His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin?" A guard came up to Zhou Muchiao and asked.

"seen."

"Has the prince come out yet?" How could the guard's face be good?

They had been gambling with the servants brought by the young marquis and his men before, because they knew that the young marquis and his men were the only ones in the mountains, so they dared to play a little.

But who knew that while they were playing, King Jin came.

Not only did he show up, he even knocked them out while they were gambling.

After waking up, they realized that it was Prince Jin who had come.

There was another earthquake just now. I don’t know what the situation is in the mountains or how the prince is doing.

If something happens to the prince in the mountains, then every one of them will be beaten to death. It would be fine if they were guarding seriously, but they were just having fun.

"When we came out, the prince probably had no intention of coming out." Young Marquis Zhou actually didn't want to keep talking about what happened in the mountains.

It's embarrassing every time he mentions it.

There is a shadow on his face. Will he dare to come to Weiming Mountain to hunt in the future?

"Did the prince instruct us to take our people into the mountains and obey his orders?" the guard asked again.

Should we go into Weiming Mountain to search for the prince's whereabouts at this time?

"The prince didn't give any orders."

"Then according to what the young marquis said, what should we do?"

In fact, the guards of Weiming Mountain are more familiar with Zhou Muchiao than with King Jin.

Because Zhou Muchiao had come here two or three times in the past three years, but King Jin had come here many years ago, and at that time they were not the guards yet.

They had no chance to meet King Jin, and they didn't know what kind of person he was.

"this......"

Zhou Muchiao thought for a moment and said, "The prince has guards around him. They should have signals on them. Before he gives the order, you don't need to go into the mountains to look for him. You should observe carefully from a high place and see if anyone sends a signal."

The guards of King Jin would definitely bring a signal when they go into the mountains.

Once we have the signal, it won’t be too late to send people in.

Zhou Muchiao felt that if King Jin needed them, he would not have knocked everyone out when he first entered.

The King of Jin probably didn't want anyone to know that he entered Weiming Mountain, right?

It seemed that it was because of him that someone was sent to call his followers, which led to his exposure.

Thinking this way, it seems that he still owes King Jin a favor?

When Zhou Muchiao thought of this, he felt an indescribable and complicated feeling in his heart.

"Young Marquis is right." The guard thought it made sense and immediately arranged for someone to keep an eye on the sentry post.

"Young Master, are you going to send this red muntjac to the palace?" A guard saw the red muntjac on his horse and couldn't help drooling.

In the past, when Young Marquis Zhou came to hunt, he was quite generous to them. Sometimes he would just throw a prey to them and let them roast it and eat it.

What the young marquis gave them could naturally be accepted by the emperor. They were very happy and grateful to the young marquis to eat meat openly here.

I just don't know if the young marquis can give them a bone now? At least make a big pot of soup.

Zhou Muchiao also thought of this.

In the past, he might have given it.

But this time, he really didn't dare to send it. He was so excited that he jumped out of control after eating a little.

"We haven't figured out how to deal with this yet. Let's go down the mountain first. You guys keep an eye on the situation in the mountain."

This time, Young Marquis Zhou did not share the prey with them.

After they all left, the guard couldn't help but say a few words.

"It seems that the young marquis also thinks this thing is too valuable, so he won't leave us any."

"Don't you think about what that is? The young marquis will send some to the palace, and maybe give some to his relatives who stayed in the capital? Or Prime Minister Shen?"

"Yeah, there's only one, how can it be divided? It's not our turn."

They didn't have any objections, but they just felt quite disappointed.

"Young Marquis, let's go back and divide this red muntjac. Some should be sent to the palace, some should be given to adults or elders. The rest should be enough for us to roast a plate, right?" said the young man in blue.

"Let's not eat it anymore. Didn't the prince tell us not to eat it?" Guan Chang frowned.

"A Chang, are you really obedient? We can eat it by ourselves, and the King of Jin won't know. It's impossible for him to really run to the young marquis's house for such a thing."

"Let's talk about it when we get back." Zhou Muchiao rode his horse and ran in front.

The others looked at him and said, "I feel like the young marquis seems to be in a bad mood."

"I can see that too. He's a little different than before. Is he unhappy?"

"Did the Prince of Jin try to intimidate him?" someone speculated.

What kind of intimidation could the King of Jin give him? Others didn't quite understand.

"I heard that someone compared the young marquis with the Prince of Jin before. The young marquis is good at everything and is a man of both civil and military talents." said the young man in blue.

"Isn't he the King of Jin?"
