Chapter 57 Just break the skin
The servant opened his mouth for a long time before saying, "A message just came back saying they haven't taken action yet. The Yun'an County Master is still outside the city and... has found an open space to eat some cakes."
Xiao Jingrui: ...
Half an hour later...
"Look at me, I'm so self-aware. I went there on my own without them having to lead me there."
"But before I become a cripple, I have to hunt something. Otherwise, won't they laugh at my Bu family?"
"Hmm... what should we hunt? It's spring search time, so we can't harm cubs or pregnant animals. So... we'll just hunt whatever we see suitable. The bigger the better, anyway."
Bu Ruo took Bi'er and walked slowly into the depths. Since the spring search began, Xuan Shuang had never run.
Just when the prince's men were about to take action, Bu Ruo suddenly stopped moving.
"The one in front! Stop! Stop right there!"
Hearing Buruo's loud shout, the prince's men thought they were discovered and couldn't help but clench the swords in their hands. Just when they were about to rush out, Buruo dismounted.
Only then did they realize that Bu Ruo hadn't been calling out to them, but to a leopard in the bushes ahead...
The leopard seemed to have been pricked with a needle, standing there without daring to move, looking at Bu Ruo with fear in its eyes.
"That's right, why are you running? Come back with me for a walk and then I'll let you come back, okay?"
"Don't believe me? That's not up to you. If you believe me, come with me and I'll let you go. If you don't believe me, you have to come with me and go back to be a skewer!"
leopard:……
The Man in the Dark: ...
Then the people in the dark saw that the leopard seemed to have accepted its fate and dared not resist, and followed Bu Ruo happily away. Xuan Shuang was not frightened like other horses, but was complacent, and occasionally looked back at the leopard.
The prince's men just watched Bu Ruo shouting all the way, and the team grew stronger.
Finally, they looked at the leopards, bears, tigers and some small animals behind Bu Ruo and swallowed their saliva: "Boss, are you still... still going to attack?"
"If we take action, we will definitely be the ones to die among those beasts who obeyed the county lady. But if we don't take action, the prince will blame us when we return, and we will definitely be the ones to die as well."
"If you stick your head out, you'll get a knife. If you hide your head, you'll get a knife too. Go ahead!"
The prince's secret guards looked at each other and were about to go forward when they heard the leading secret guard suddenly say, "Wait, wait a minute."
"What's wrong, boss? Why aren't you going up again?"
The leader pointed in Bu Ruo's direction and said, "Look at what County Master Yun'an is teasing?"
The others followed the line of sight and all gasped, "Snake! It's a snake! This Yun'an County Master is so bold that she even dares to tease a snake."
The leader's eyes lit up: "Maybe God feels sorry for us and gives us a chance to live. Does anyone know that snake? Is it poisonous? If it bites the county lady, we won't have to take action."
Upon hearing this, the others hurriedly looked around and shook their heads, "I don't know. We've never seen a snake like this before. But I've heard that the more colorful a snake is, the more poisonous it is. Judging from the appearance of this snake, it must be a venomous snake."
At this time, Bu Ruo looked at the small snake coiled on the branch in front of him and said with a smile: "I have looked all along the way, and all the others are poisonous, but you are not. So, bite me."
"Where should I bite? My wrist, so others can see me. And please bite gently, just enough to break the skin, but don't bite two bloody holes."
After Bu Ruo finished speaking, he grabbed the little snake and placed it in his palm with his eyes closed: "Come on, remember to run away quickly after biting it, don't let those people behind me catch you and take you back for research."
After a long time, Bier saw the little snake stretch its head to Buruo's wrist. It opened its mouth several times but didn't dare to bite it. It looked so pitiful that it wished Buruo would bite it.
"Bite it, hurry up. I promise I won't seek revenge on you. Just bite me and run away. Will you bite me? If you don't... I heard snake soup is delicious."
"hiss……"
Bu Ruo was bitten by a snake in public. The snake didn't even turn its head after biting him. It ran away howling in fear, as if there was a natural enemy chasing it.
"Hahaha, God really doesn't want to let us die. Look, the county lady has fallen down. That snake must be poisonous."
"You two should hurry back and report to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Tell him that Princess Yun'an has been bitten by a venomous snake and is on the verge of death. Ask His Royal Highness if we still need to intervene."
The guard nearby looked at his boss and asked in confusion, "She's already been bitten by a snake, is there any need to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
The leading secret guard glanced at him and said, "If His Royal Highness knew that Princess Yun'an was bitten by a venomous snake, he would probably not let us take action again. After all, the War King is not someone to be trifled with."
"But if we decide not to take action, and the Yun'an County Lady doesn't die, then we will be the ones to die."
The other secret guards looked like they were learning a lesson, and their eyes were full of admiration when they looked at the leading secret guard. Otherwise, how could he become the leader?
Sure enough, after hearing that Bu Ruo was bitten by a poisonous snake and fell unconscious, Xiao Jingrui thought for a moment and did not let the secret guards take action again.
"Just have them watch in secret. During normal spring searches, everyone will only go to the middle area and never go deep into the depths. There are guards in the depths, and there are many venomous snakes and ferocious beasts."
"Although I have already ordered most of the guards to be withdrawn from the deep, she would be courting death if she went in on her own. Since I haven't taken any action, the War King won't be able to find us. I don't want to confront him now unless it's necessary."
On this side, Xiao Yulan also received the news that Bu Ruo was bitten by a poisonous snake.
"Your Majesty, the county lady was bitten by a poisonous snake."
Xiao Yulan's face looked visibly ugly, and just as he was about to stand up, Cen Nan quickly pushed him back.
"Don't worry, Your Highness. The people below said... they saw the county lady deliberately teasing a small flower snake, and then she was bitten. Moreover, the county lady was followed by a group of wild beasts, and they seemed to be tamed and extremely obedient."
"The county lady can tame Xuanshuang and wild beasts, so how could she be bitten by a small snake? I'm afraid something is going on here."
Xiao Yulan wanted to say something, but she was stunned when she saw Jin Congcong, who was chewing a fruit beside her: "Ruo'er was bitten by a poisonous snake? How is that possible? She is lucky that she didn't chase after the poisonous snake."
"Your Highness, don't worry too much. With Ruo'er's cunning mind, who knows who she might be plotting against."
Although Xiao Yulan was worried when she heard Jin Congcong's words, she decided to believe Bu Ruo.
Lin Rou had been watching Xiao Yulan and soon noticed something was wrong with him. It must be that Li San's people had succeeded. As long as Bu Ruyi came back, she would expose her immediately and the War King would not want her anymore.
Lin Rou also wanted to go hunting and see Bu Ruo fall into her trap with her own eyes, but she had been fascinated by poetry, books and dancing since she was a child, and she only knew the basics of riding a horse, let alone hunting, so she could only wait here.
