Chapter 127 Go into the mountains alone to find him!

Xue Youli frowned, glanced deeply at Chu Xinyue's running back, then turned around and ran towards Murong Che's tent.

"Ali, you're here just in time. What would you like to eat for dinner?"

Murong Che saw her shoulders were wet from the rain, he stood up from the table and walked towards her, "Why don't you have an umbrella? Your clothes are all wet from the rain..."

Xue Youli grabbed Murong Che's arm before he could finish his words and said, "Your Majesty! Prince Kang has not come out since he entered the hunting grounds. We are worried that he has encountered a wild beast in the forest. Princess Qinghe has gone to look for him. Please send someone to look for them immediately!"

[There are many dangers in the mountains. In addition to poisonous snakes and fierce beasts, the more terrifying ones are the people that Murong Ye had ambushed in the mountains in advance. If Murong Nan encounters those assassins who kill people without shedding blood, he will be in great danger! ]

Murong Che heard her thoughts, his face froze, and he called out in a deep voice, "Wang Defa!"

"The slave is here!"

"King Kang did not leave the mountain with his companions. You must pass on my order and have the guards go into the mountain to look for him immediately!"

"I obey your order!"

After Wang Defa left, Murong Che reached out and patted Xue Youli on the shoulder, saying soothingly, "Don't worry, maybe Prince Kang was just delayed by the heavy rain."

"Um……!"

Xue Youli was about to nod when she suddenly felt a discomfort in her nose. She quickly turned her back to Murong Che and sneezed twice, "Ah-chu! Ah-chu!"

"It's cold in the mountains. You can warm yourself up by the fire first. I'll have someone boil some hot water for you to take a hot bath."

Xue Youli didn't want to catch a cold and delay her trip into the mountains tomorrow, "Okay."

While she was warming herself by the fire and taking a hot bath, Chu Xinyue had already ridden her horse to the place where she and Murong Nan had separated.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and she was soaked all over.

The light in the forest was very dim, and you couldn't see clearly more than two meters away.

Chu Xinyue wiped the rain off her face and looked around quickly.

However, there was no sign of Murong Nan here at all.

Where will he run to?

Could it be that he went to find a place to shelter from the rain?

"Murong Nan? Murong Nan?"

Chu Xinyue lowered her head, looked at the faint traces of the road left on the ground, and searched deep into the woods.

The further we went into the woods, the more bushes there were, and the harder it was for the horses to move.

Chu Xinyue's clothes and long hair were soaked by the rain. She kept wiping her eyes with her sleeve, but her vision was still blurry.

As she walked, she suddenly saw the silhouette of a white horse under a crooked tree.

"Murong Nan!"

Chu Xinyue recognized that the white horse was Murong Nan's.

She quickly patted the horse's belly to make it speed up.

However, when she walked up to the white horse, Chu Xinyue discovered that the white horse was tied to a tree trunk, but there was no sign of Murong Nan around.

She walked a few more steps forward and found that the mountain path was soaked by rain, and the dead branches and leaves on the ground had become muddy and the horse could not move forward at all.

Chu Xinyue looked at the footprints of varying depths on the ground, made a quick decision, and jumped off the horse.

She tied the horse next to Murong Nan's white horse and patted the horse's back. "Wait here for me. I'll go bring your master back!"

After saying that, she walked forward following the footprints on the ground.

At this moment, Murong Nan was also following this road, walking into the woods, all the way to the deepest part of the hunting ground.

Even though it rained heavily, it couldn't stop him.

"Chu Xinyue? Chu Xinyue? Where are you?"

Just now, Chu Xinyue went into the mountains in this direction. When she parted with him, Chu Xinyue specifically told him to stay where he was and wait for her to come back.

However, Murong Nan waited there for a long time, but Chu Xinyue did not come back. Instead, he received a signal flare from the camp.

He looked up at the dark clouds that had suddenly gathered in the sky and knew it would rain soon.

Thinking that Chu Xinyue had run into the woods and had not come out yet, he gritted his teeth, dismounted with his bow and arrows, and went to look for her.

He didn't know how far he had walked, but he felt that the further he went inside, the quieter it became, with only the occasional sound of a bird or two coming from afar.

When the rain got heavier, he could hear no other sound except the sound of raindrops hitting the leaves and the ground.

It was incredibly dark in the woods, and the tinderbox was wet from the rain.

He knew clearly that in such bad weather, he should find a safe place to hide as soon as possible and wait until the rain stopped so that he could act more safely.

But he was worried that Chu Xinyue was trapped deep in the woods due to the heavy rain, and he was even more worried that she would be in danger.

So he held the longbow tightly in his hand and continued forward without hesitation.

As he was walking, he suddenly heard some noise in the bushes.

Murong Nan was startled. He quickly put an arrow on the bow and shouted at the bushes, "Who? Who is there?"

He stood five meters away from the bushes and waited for a long time, but no one responded to him.

Seeing that the sound in the bushes did not stop, Murong Nan took a deep breath and mustered up his courage to continue moving forward.

He originally wanted to go around the bushes, but suddenly a huge wild boar jumped out from the bushes.

The wild boar was fat and strong, with a pair of eyes flashing a dark red ferocious light in the rain.

It stared at Murong Nan coldly, with its black mane standing upright, emitting a fierce aura.

Even through the rain, Murong Nan could see the wild boar's gleaming fangs.

He took a half step back, pulled the bowstring, and tried to strike first.

But the heavy rain blurred his vision, and the wild boar was still some distance away from him, so he couldn't find the wild boar's weak spot for a while.

The wild boar seemed to have sensed his next move. Before he could aim, it roared and rushed towards him.

This wild boar was extremely large, and as it ran wildly, the ground beneath Murong Nan's feet was shaking slightly.

Just as the wild boar rushed to the vicinity, Murong Nan decisively shot the arrow in his hand.

Unfortunately, the wild boar had thick skin and flesh, and coupled with the impact of the heavy rain, his arrow only grazed the wild boar's body and did not cause any fatal damage.

But the wild boar was enraged and rushed towards him madly.

Murong Nan quickly dodged to the side and barely avoided its fangs.

The wild boar missed its attack, so it twisted its butt and turned its head to rush towards him again.

The wild boar was moving too fast, and Murong Nan had no time to draw his bow and shoot an arrow. He could only hold the long arrow and stab it into the wild boar!

The wild boar's hind leg was pierced by a long arrow. It howled and attacked Murong Nan even more frantically.

When Murong Nan was stepping backwards, he stepped on something and stumbled, falling directly to the ground, rolling down the slope beneath his feet.

“Hiss! It hurts!”

Murong Nan rolled for about seventy or eighty meters. After he stopped, he felt pain all over his body.

He groped on the ground for a long time and touched a stick as thick as his wrist. He used the stick to support himself and slowly got up.

Murong Nan didn't know where this place was. He walked forward with the help of a wooden stick, shouting as he walked, "Chu Xinyue? Where are you? If you hear me calling you, answer me!"

He walked a little further when his foot was suddenly caught on a branch.

He looked down and saw that the dead leaves on the ground at his feet were much higher than those on the sides, so he used his feet to push them away.

There was a pile of burnt wood buried under the dead leaves.

Since there is burnt firewood here, it means someone has been to this place!

Just then, he saw several moving dark shadows in the distance in the rain.

Murong Nan's eyes suddenly lit up with hope, and he rushed in that direction and waved, "Have you guys found Princess Qinghe?"

He knew that his royal brother would definitely send someone to find him and Chu Xinyue!

Due to the heavy rain, the figures did not notice him at first.

Hearing the noise, they quickly drew their swords and rushed towards him.

It was not until several people approached that Murong Nan realized that these guys in black were not royal guards at all!
