The princess is soft!The sick villain is crazy

Chapter 35 Wildness

The horse was dozing off sleepily, but when it saw Shu Yao sitting up, it spread its hooves and was about to run.Li Mingji grabbed the rein, glanced coldly, the horse let out a low growl, and became docile again.

Li Mingji led the horse and led Shu Yao to the depths of the woods.

Shu Yao came to relax, and had no intention of participating in the autumn hunting, so although the horse had a quiver and a longbow, it was hardly used.The only rabbit that was roasted and eaten was stoned to death by Li Mingji.

It's strange to think about it. Could it be that because she is in a good mood today, her luck has improved a lot?
The two climbed up a hillside with a wide view and a panoramic view of the mountains and forests.Shu Yao stretched comfortably, and suddenly saw a few clusters of dark shadows moving in the bushes below.

"Li Mingji!" She grabbed Li Mingji's sleeve and motioned him to look down, "What do you think is that?"

Seeing clearly what the black shadow was, Li Mingji narrowed his eyes slightly, his voice was a little cold, and he said firmly, "It's a wolf."

"Wolf?!"

Shu Yao's eyes widened with disbelief, "How could there be wolves?"

She comes to the Shangyang Mountain hunting ground almost every year. This is a royal hunting ground with a demarcated area. The royal family also built a fence and sent officers and soldiers to guard it. Those large beasts have long been cleaned up.So this time when entering the mountain, although Shu Yao was a little scared, she was more curious and excited, because she knew that Shangyang Mountain was safe enough and there were very few accidents.

Li Mingji knew the reason.

It's a few wild wolves.

The wolves escaped from the other side of the mountain, and someone deliberately broke down the fence to let the wolves escape into the royal hunting grounds.

In the previous life, Xie Yanzhou took Shu Yao to ride a horse, and they both fell down the mountain. Shu Yao was injured, and the smell of blood attracted the hungry wolves.

At that time, Li Jin, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, who was quite sacred, accompanied him as a minister. Li Mingji, disguised as a bodyguard, was also in the Li family's team.He originally wanted to infiltrate the autumn hunting team to find out the news, but he didn't know that someone took a slanted sword and deliberately caused an accident.

Shu Yao and Xie Yanzhou did not return all night, Emperor Yong was furious and sent people to search the mountain overnight.Li Mingji took advantage of the chaos and came to Shangyang Mountain, killed the wolves, and rescued Shu Yao.

The little princess passed out in the panic, and Li Mingji put her in an open space because he couldn't reveal her identity, and then saw Xie Yanzhou coming on horseback, and took Shu Yao away.

Everyone watched as Xie Yanzhou came out with the disheveled little princess in his arms, so he blatantly asked Shu Yao to marry him, and even Emperor Yong couldn't refuse, and promised to let them get married first.

Li Mingji stood in the dark and watched the whole process blankly, no one noticed his existence.

Recalling the experience of the previous life, Li Mingji's eyes were slightly cold, that person came for Shu Yao.

Although he didn't find out about the wolves in his previous life and only dealt with it as an accident, he could guess who it was.

This time, he stayed by Shu Yao's side every step of the way, and did not let Shu Yao and Xie Yanzhou be together, but the man in the dark still made a move.

Shu Yao had never seen such a battle before, her face was pale, her heart was clenched, and she anxiously grabbed Li Mingji's sleeve, "Li Mingji, let's go back now, I will ask my uncle to send someone to deal with these wolves... "

"Princess, please rest assured," Li Mingji said, "I have a solution."

In his previous life, he alone was able to rescue the little princess who was surrounded by wolves. Now they are standing on a high platform, and the wolves are in the bushes at the foot of the mountain, far away from them. Naturally, it is not difficult to deal with them.

Putting the reins into Shu Yao's palm, Li Mingji took off the longbow hanging on the horse's back, drew out three feathered arrows and placed them on the string, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

In the bushes, several wild wolves are walking around.They were hungry for many days and fled into the royal hunting grounds before finding their prey.However, the prey is limited, not enough to preserve fruit, but it makes them even more hungry, wandering restlessly, with mottled blood stains on their fur, they look very vicious.

As if aware of the approaching danger, a wild wolf raised its head abruptly and howled, "Wow——"

Li Mingji let go of his hand.

The three arrows were all off the string, two shot into the wolf's abdomen, and one directly stuck in its eye, and the wolf was killed on the spot.A strong smell of blood spread, and the surrounding companions flocked to eat its corpse.

People will explode their nature in the face of adversity, not to mention the already hungry beasts.

A trace of almost invisible ridicule flashed across Li Mingji's eyes, his slender fingers casually placed on the longbow, and he asked softly, "Can the princess help Mingji get the arrow?"

Shu Yao hadn't recovered from the shock just now, she nodded blankly, took out an arrow and handed it to him.

She sat on the horse, and Li Mingji stood in front of her.The young man's broad and slender shoulders almost covered her sight, giving her the illusion that he was more dangerous than these wild wolves.

However, wild wolves would compete to eat the corpses of their companions, but he handed his back to her, like a tamed beast, docilely lowering his noble head.

Another arrow was shot, and a wild wolf fell down.The other wolves had already realized that something was wrong, and raised their heads from eating. Their sharp teeth were covered with bloody internal organs. They grinned in the direction where Li Mingji and Shu Yao were, and roared ferociously. They were about to run towards them. Come.

Li Mingji suddenly laughed.

He got on his horse, picked up three feather arrows, and slapped the horse's back, "Princess, sit still."

As if driven by nervous emotions, the fierceness deep in the horse's blood was aroused, the pupils were burning with flames, and with a neighing sound, the horse's hoof was raised high.

The reins were still in Shu Yao's hands, and Li Mingji's arms stretched across her body, his big warm palms clenched her hands tightly. Behind her was the young man's broad and warm chest. The blood boiled.

The horse quickly dived down the mountain.

Li Mingji let go of his hand, and three arrows flew off the string, with such force that they pierced through the wolf's body.

"Ouch-"

The last wild wolf whined and closed its eyes unwillingly.

The wolf, which was majestic before, turned into a pile of corpses in the blink of an eye.The horse came to the wolf's body with vigorous steps. Li Mingji jumped off the horse, stepped on the sharp claws of the wolf, and drew out the arrow.

In an instant, blood splattered everywhere, soaking the surrounding grass.

Li Mingji's fingers were also stained with the blood of wild wolves, only the silk handkerchief that Shu Yao tied on his palm was clean as before.He re-inserted the feather arrow on the wolf's body at random, looked up at Shu Yao, and asked in a low voice, "Is the Princess afraid?"

If Shu Yao and Li Mingji look at each other, you will find the wildness and excitement burning in his eyes, which is a completely different expression from his gentle appearance.

However, she was initially shocked, and did not notice anything strange about Li Mingji. Instead, she felt that with him by her side, she felt full of security. "My princess has learned riding and archery since she was a child. I have seen many such scenes, so I am not afraid."

She didn't admit that she was so scared by the wild wolf that she turned pale and almost fell into Li Mingji's arms.

"What the princess said is very true," Li Mingji smiled, his eyes were full of meaning, "The princess has learned the art of controlling beasts very well."
