Chapter 128: Deceiving Uncle Sheng (26)

–

The next day, at a hunting ground in the suburbs.

As far as the eye could see, there was a lush green mountain. Several people readied their bows and arrows and mounted their horses. Ningcheng Yuan cheerfully lifted his whip and said, “Whoever catches the most prey will have a banquet in celebration tonight!”

After he finished speaking, a loud neigh was heard along with clouds of dust rising.

No one had expected Ji Xili to make such rapid progress in just a few years of staying at the Nanchao Kingdom. Only her and Sheng Qianmo’s horses ran in the front, while Ningcheng Yuan and Sheng Zhiyu followed close behind. Su Huang wasn’t in a hurry at all. He enjoyed the scenery and followed at his own leisure.

After entering the forest, Sheng Qianmo could discern the rustle of animals fleeing in the forest. He took the lead and shot a wild deer.

The others were reluctant to fall behind, so they went around looking for prey.

At this time, Su Huang, who was strolling in the forest, was struck down by the voice of Ningcheng Yuan.

“Su Huang, can you come up with the imposing manner like you did at the Yunnan Province? If you hang around like a useless person again, be careful, because I’ll beat you to the ground! “

Hearing his words, Su Huang picked up his bow and casually shot an arrow. All Ningcheng heard was a distant “whoosh” before the arrow passed by him and plunged into a tree.

Looking at the arrow, Ningcheng became sensible.

However, Su Huang still agreed to keep up his pace with theirs. Su Huang heard a vague, strange sound nearby. He picked up his bow and arrow, looking through the thick grass in front of him, and saw something move beside the stream under the slope. If he hadn’t looked carefully, he would probably have thought that some animal was hiding in the grass. But he’d seen at a glance that a figure was hiding inside the grass. Su Huang hooked his lips and muttered, “I seem to have found a very interesting prey.”

Nearby, Ningcheng Yuan whispered back in satisfaction, “I saw it too. I better take it to drink at night.”

Hearing this, Su Huang turned a little restless. After seeing the arrow in Ningcheng’s hand targeting the person in the grass, Su Huang screwed up his brows and yelled, “Be careful!

The person in the grass was… Shu Nuan.

For his birthday celebration, Su Hai had told her they were going to play in the suburbs. When she arrived, he said that he wanted to play blind man’s bluff game. She was unlucky enough to be caught in the first round. So, as she squatted in the grass, she began counting up to a hundred, after which she would go look for the others. While still counting, she heard a familiar voice shout from not far away.

Shu Nuan turned her head to the direction of the voice. The arrow flying toward her shocked her, and even before she had the time to react, she rolled down the slope and fell into the stream with a loud splash. Taking a few mouthfuls of water, she tried to grab the rock at the water’s edge, but it was too slippery to hold on to.

She tried several times but couldn’t climb it. Instead, the attempts scratched her hand. The current here was rapid, and soon it was going up Shu Nuan’s body. However, she finally managed to grab a corner at the edge of the rock, and like grasping her lifeline, she climbed up bit by bit, although water would still rush up from time to time.

At this moment, the sound of an approaching horse could be heard, and Shu Nuan was shaking. Nevertheless, she looked straight in the direction of the sound.

Sheng Qianmo had rode over. He had been in the opposite direction of Su Huang. It wasn’t until after Shu Nuan had fallen that Ningcheng Yuan had rode over to find him. When Sheng Qianmo learned that Shu Nuan had appeared here and fallen off the slope, he rushed over as fast as he could without thinking.
