Chapter 141 What is the Fate?
Before Fu Zhaoning could figure out what was going on, a fire lit up over there and several torches were raised one after another, illuminating everyone.
The light also illuminated her figure so that she had nowhere to hide.
The opponents were all dressed in neat clothes and carried long swords.
The young man in the lead was about twenty-two or twenty-three years old and looked good, but the way he looked at Fu Zhaoning made her feel uncomfortable.
There were two young girls next to them. They were wearing men's clothes and had their long hair tied up high, but their breasts and waists clearly told others that they were women with slim figures.
There were several horses around, each carrying several prey.
Fu Zhaoning also saw two muntjacs, a long-feathered pheasant, and several wild rabbits.
This person should also be from the capital, here to participate in the hunting competition, right?
"come over."
The young man hooked his index finger at Fu Zhaoning.
This is like hooking a puppy.
There was a small patch of thorns growing between Fu Zhaoning and them. Perhaps because of this, they all stood there and didn't come over.
Fu Zhaoning saw that one of them had already pointed an arrow at her, and she knew she couldn't run away for the time being.
"Are you bandits who kill and rob?"
She asked deliberately.
Those people were stunned for a moment, then some of them burst into laughter, while others became angry and pointed at her and cursed.
"What are you talking about, you little bitch? Are there any handsome and noble bandits like us? You look good, but are your eyes broken?"
"Brother Chen, she actually said you are a bandit!" a young girl pouted and shouted.
As soon as they saw Fu Zhaoning in such a forest, illuminated by the light of torches, with a face as white as jade and a figure as beautiful as peach blossoms, they felt jealous and uncomfortable.
Where did this woman who looks like a troll come from?
"Hahaha." The young man laughed and looked at Fu Zhaoning. "A woman who can go into this deep mountain alone is really special. Girl, come here quickly. We seemed to see a wolf over there just now. I don't mean to do anything bad by asking you to come here."
Wolf?
Fu Zhaoning suddenly thought of the strange sound of wind that he heard first.
That's not the direction these people are standing.
Are there really wolves at night?
But it’s not surprising to see wolves in such deep mountains.
"Why don't you come here quickly? We are hunting wolves. Do you think we are hunting you?" Another young man shouted at Fu Zhaoning impatiently again.
Fu Zhaoning saw that their arrows were pointed at her, and for a moment she couldn't figure out whether what they said was true or false, but she knew that if she didn't do as they said, they would take action.
She walked towards them, and when she was careful to pass the small patch of thorns, the hem of her skirt was caught and torn with a ripping sound.
"shameless!"
The girl just now started cursing again, glaring at Fu Zhaoning's skirt angrily.
Fu Zhaoning was somewhat speechless. It wasn't her intention that her skirt was torn, so was she considered shameless?
She walked over, bent down, and tied up the torn hem of her skirt. She was wearing pants underneath, and because she knew she was going into the mountains, she tied her pants legs tightly with a strip of cloth, not even a small piece of skin was exposed. Is this shameless?
When the other people saw her behavior, they were shocked by her straightforwardness.
Which girl can remain so calm even if her skirt is torn?
"You have to be ashamed." Fu Zhaoning stood up straight after tying the hem of her skirt and replied to the girl, "It's quite shameful for a woman to dress up as a man."
Although people are free to wear whatever they want, Fu Zhaoning had no intention of tolerating it since the other party, who was wearing men's clothing that only showed off her chest and waist, called her shameless.
"What did you say?" The girl glared at her and had already reached out to grasp the hilt of the sword and was about to draw it.
"Okay, Zhier, stop making trouble." The young man scolded her impatiently.
"Brother Chen, she..."
"Come here." The young man said these two words to Fu Zhaoning again.
Fu Zhaoning felt really uncomfortable. This was the way of recruiting a puppy, and it was as if he was recruiting the puppy he raised. It really disgusted her.
"You want to hunt wild wolves, I won't disturb you. I'm going into the mountains to collect herbs. I'm leaving first." Fu Zhaoning patted the backpack he was carrying.
She put some chrysanthemum and other medicinal herbs in the backpack, otherwise it would be difficult to explain when she went out.
"Are you a herbalist? Are you from the Medicine Alliance or a doctor?" the young man asked again.
The girl named Zhier let out an exaggerated sigh.
"Brother Chen, at most she is from a poor family and went to the mountains to dig herbs in exchange for a few copper coins in the city. How could she be a member of the Medicine Alliance? And even less a doctor."
The other girl nodded as well. "That's right. How could there be such a young doctor? And a female doctor at that? There are only a few female doctors in Zhao State, and they are all serving the ladies in the palace. How could they come to this mountain alone to dig for herbs?"
"Okay, stop talking."
Fu Zhaoning looked at the young man. They all called him Brother Chen. Could he be Zhao Chen?
Zhao Ru's brother?
"Do you recognize me?" the other party had already asked her this question.
When he asked this, Fu Zhaoning was sure that he was Zhao Chen. It was probably only a family tradition like that of Lord Zhao that could raise siblings like Zhao Chen and Zhao Ru, who both thought they were the biggest and most powerful, and everyone had to recognize them and flatter them and give in to them.
"No."
Fu Zhaoning said lightly.
"I am Zhao Chen, the son of Lord Zhao, the Minister of the Dali Temple."
It is true!
What is the fate between her and the Zhao family?
"Got it? I'm not a bandit. Someone here is slightly injured. We are out of medicine and don't know how to treat it. If you know a little bit about medicine and have medicine, come and help."
Fu Zhaoning was a little surprised by Zhao Chen’s words.
Is it to allow her to heal?
Zhao Chen waved his hand, and two young men came out from behind carrying someone. The man had his head down, standing on one foot, and the other leg was dragging limply on the ground at a weird angle.
It looks like the leg is broken and badly dislocated.
Fu Zhaoning frowned.
"Is this called a minor injury?"
Is this considered a minor injury?
If she went there to get treatment, she would know more than just a little bit of medicine!
"He's not dead, and his life isn't seriously damaged. It's just a broken leg. It's not a minor injury." Zhao Chen asked her in return, "Can you cure him?"
"cannot.."
Before Fu Zhaoning finished speaking, the man raised his head with difficulty and looked at her. His sweaty hair was sticking to his forehead and face in a mess, but his eyes were unusually clear. He looked like a teenager, probably only about fourteen years old.
He looked at Fu Zhaoning and said two words silently.
Save me.
Isn’t he part of Zhao Chen’s group?
Fu Zhaoning changed his words, "I can't guarantee it. I have to see."
"Then show him."
As soon as Zhao Chen finished speaking, the two people who were holding the young man threw him away and threw him to the ground.
Fu Zhaoning heard his groan of pain, but he didn't say anything.
A wolf howl suddenly sounded not far away.
Woo——
Everyone's face changed.
"There really is a wolf?!"
