Fengqi crabapple

Chapter 86

After laughing enough, a group of them, according to the grouping last night, took their bows and arrows and went up the mountain together.

The advantage of being in a group of three is flexibility in movement, but the disadvantage is... Xie Ruitang feels that she can't walk with Haitang!
So when he walked to the middle of the mountain and saw the two girls panting from a distance, Xie Ruitang changed his mind: "Let the guards compare, we will wait here for them to come back."

Cheng Hanbai originally wanted to go together, but when he saw that Haitang could hardly walk, he had no choice but to stay.

Haitang and Qingyao sat on a flat stone with their backs against the rocks. Xie Yuanfang sat next to Qingyao.Xie Ruitang and Cheng Hanbai sat under the tree opposite them.

The five of them were sitting against the rocks and tree trunks, blowing in the wind, chatting about interesting things they had encountered while hunting in the past.

"When I went to Beijing when I was ten years old, I went hunting with my brother. My brother was aiming at a rabbit in front, and I waved my handkerchief from behind. Before my brother's arrow could be shot, I drove the rabbit away!" Qing Yao Holding his belly and laughing, Xie Yuanfeng also remembered it, patted Qingyao's head and said, "No wonder I didn't hit anything that time!"

"I once hunted, and it was so exciting! At the turn of autumn and winter, the yellow sheep in northern Tatars would migrate in groups to southern Tatars to spend the winter. We looked at it from the tower and it was so exciting! All the arrows were drawn. Yes, the yellow sheep just don’t come to heaven. It’s really annoying!
Once, I saw a group of yellow sheep running across the yellow sand again, so I took a few people and secretly opened the gate of the town and went out. When I got there, I took a look. What do you think? "Cheng Hanbai sold it out.

"Have all the sheep run away?" Haitang asked.

"The sheep didn't run away, but a group of Tatars were hunting sheep around us! When they saw us, they actually shouted, 'Come here! Come here!' At that time, I also forgot that I was sneaking out of the country, and shot many sheep to death with them. In the end, he almost ran out of arrows before he remembered." Cheng Hanbai himself found it funny, but others were very nervous.

"What happened next?" Qingyao asked.

"Then? Later we took two back to Xuan Mansion."

Qingyao asked unwillingly: "What about the Tatars?"

"What else can they do? Thank you for helping us shoot the sheep!"

Xie Ruitang remembered that in his previous life, he and Haitang went hunting together, but it was Haitang who went hunting with Xie Ruitang.He was lost in thought when something happened at Qingyao.

Qingyao didn't know what she said. She happily took Haitang's hand and shook her. She accidentally shook herself off the stone. Haitang and Xie Yuanfang both went down to help her.

Suddenly, when Haitang raised her head, she saw a masked man on the tree nearby. He was about to use a hidden weapon at Xie Ruitan.

Haitang was startled and couldn't help blurting out: "Ox-hair needle! Be careful!"

Seeing Haitang call out "Ox Hair Needle", the man was stunned for a moment, then turned his hand and shot the plum blossom needle towards Haitang.

Xie Yuanfang took a look and saw that there were rocks behind him. He couldn't hide in time. The only thing he could do was to turn around and rush towards her. He supported the stone wall with both hands, turned his back to the Plum Blossom Needle, and only held Haitang in his arms.

In the midst of lightning and flint, Xie Ruitang flew out a dagger. With a "ding" sound, he knocked the plum blossom needle away and pierced into a nearby tree trunk.

At the same time, Cheng Hanbai drew an arrow from his string and shot down the masked man who was about to escape with one arrow!

Xie Yuanfang blocked Haitang, Xie Ruitang blocked the needle with his flying knife, and Cheng Hanbai drew his bow to shoot people.All three of them took action at the same moment, in one go.

Xie Ruitang walked over in two steps, pulled Xie Yuanfang away, looked Haitang up and down, and asked urgently: "Are you okay?"

Haitang shook his head, but looked at the prince and said, "Why are you so stupid? It's not like you don't know the dangers of ox-hair needles." Xie Yuanfang smiled and said, "If I get a needle, you can save me, but if you get a needle, I won't save you. You, who do you think is stupid?"

Haitang saw Xie Ruitang's eyes full of question marks and explained: "I saved the prince on his first way back to Beijing. At that time, he was hit by this kind of thorn. I have seen it in books. The most impressive thing about its appearance is that its launch tube is very similar to the Xiujian, but it is much thinner."

"Impossible! You can't understand a cow-hair needle!" The masked man on the ground screamed.His face towel had been torn off by Cheng Hanbai, but no one knew this man.He struggled to sit up and said, "The prince didn't get the shot at all last time!"

Xie Yuanfang walked over and sneered: "Did you also deceive Jichuan? I wonder if you have used an old trick and want to repeat it again! Unfortunately, this girl solved the problem I got last time. !”

Indeed, the masked man had been explaining to Ji Chuan that the son had not been hit by a needle before falling off the cliff, otherwise he would not have survived that night.This time, in order to atone for his sins, he made a promise to Himekawa that Crown Prince Qi and Prince Duan would die if they fell into his trap.

"Jichuan!" Xie Ruitang and Cheng Hanbai shouted at the same time.

Xie Yuanfang then suspected that Concubine Ji was inciting Prince Xian to deal with her, and wanted to test the strength of Prince De's palace. By the way, she gave Prince De a warning, so she created the illusion that Concubine Ji was assassinated, and used this to hunt down Xie Yuanfang.

Xie Yuanfang followed the instructions given to him by Prince De before and never dared to expose his martial arts. He was only led by Chu Yi to escape. On the way to escape, Xie Yuanfang was hit by the man's plum blossom needle. Chu Yi blocked the prince's palm and the two of them rolled down together. On the hillside, he was able to escape into the Guandi Temple and hide.

Haitang walked over, wrapped it in a handkerchief, and carefully pulled out the plum blossom needle from the tree trunk. The ox hair needle was still in the small groove.She wiped off the poison from the needle with a handkerchief and handed it to Xie Ruitan.

Xie Ruitang took it but didn't look at it. He grabbed her hand and said fearfully: "You know it's poisonous but you touch it with your hands! You don't want your life."

Haitang smiled and said: "I can cure this poison, but the difficulty is the ox-hair needle attached to it." Then she explained in detail the reason why the ox-hair needle kills people.Only then did Xie Ruitang see the mystery in this plum blossom needle.

The man on the ground heard Haitang speak clearly, and then he collapsed to the ground.Cheng Hanbai stepped forward and kicked him, and found that he had committed suicide by taking poison.

Ling Xue and An Qing were the first to come back, but saw a man wearing dark green clothes on the ground from a distance.Ling Xue was shocked. When she went over and saw, she was already dead.He looked at Cheng Hanbai, who said, "He is from Jichuan."

Ling Xue gritted her teeth and said, "Don't wait until I leave before you come here!"

The princess, who had been silent until now, saw Ling Xue and suddenly said to the prince: "Brother, I also want to learn martial arts!"

Xie Yuanfang felt sad in his heart: Is this about to start?Then the relatives and lovers around them will also become their weaknesses!

Xie Ruitang, who was standing next to Haitang, felt sad and suddenly understood what Xie Yuantang said to him that day:
"It's not up to you!"

Yu Lang and Cheng Fei were the second to come back, followed by others.Everyone shot a lot of small animals, and Cheng Fei even caught a snake alive, thinking that his girl might like snake gall and snake venom.

Everyone had no intention of laughing and hurried down the mountain with their prey.

Back in Dongzhuang, Haitang went to check the child again. He had a soft abdomen and a pale and clean tongue. There was no serious problem.Haitang reduced the prescription for him and asked him to take three more doses tomorrow. He would be warmed and strengthened so that he would not need to take any more medicine.

Seeing that the children were fine, Haitang suggested that everyone return to the city overnight to avoid further troubles and implicate these bankers.

Wei Zhuangtou took the villagers and sent them outside Zhuangzi with many thanks.
